| The Who's OF MAssAcHusErrs.--T Boston
| Courier, Whig Journal, remarks: "That the
national nominations of the Americana, Demo-
Gratis and Freesolers, for President of the United
States, win be weighed with proper consideration
by the Wings, who intend to keep up their organ
ization in Massachusetts,. They may have a pref
erence of men among Democrats, if they are to be
reduced to choice of evils, but they have no ad-
journed question with regard to principles. Nei-
ther Of the three parties commends itself especially
TO the Wings at the present time, but the Wings
| Of Massachusetts, aciH be more likely to vote for
.Hiilard Fillmore if they have any opportunity to
carry ticket for him, than for any other candi
date who is, according to the political signs Of
| the times, likely to stand before them"
