JUDGE WHITE AND THE WINGS.

We repeat, what we have heretofore asserted
that, while the Wings disaPprove OF some OF The
votes of Judge White, and do not concur with HIN
in some of his opinions, they are sincere IN their de
| termination TO support him for The next Presidency
and we positively and peremptorlIy deny the charge
brought against US, by those, who, in making II
show that they are themselves capable of the du
plicy implies, that we arc only using his name
in order 10 OBJ ain the ascendancy in Virginia, de
signing TO drop him, and TO take up Mr.. Webster
as soon as that az cendancy is secured. The aHe-
cation is unrua in all lis moods and lenses. II has
no foundation upon which to rest 1t is the mere
coinage of those who, dreadng the effect OF Judge
Whites nomination upon the fortunes Of their idol
the Presidents fayorc courler and sycophant, and
the nominee oil the Baltimore Convention, use il to
deter that portion of the Jackson party who reilly
prefer Judge Whi'e to MIR. Van Buren,, from CIV
ing effect to their opinions, by voting for the Wing
candidates.
SO far as We are concerned, the opinions fudge
White, on constitutional questions, correspond more
nearly with our own than those Of MIR. Webster
his interests arc more nearly identified with ours
| and therefore should prefer him, even were Nj
Van Buren, Of The question, and Mr.. Webster
the only other candidae before the people. We
| could not as at present advised, indeed support
MIR w bster all except IT were as the compctl-
tor of Mr. Van Buren--lhcn, indeed, we should en-
brace his Cause because, in choosing between TWO
Northern men, we could not hesitate when one of
them is man of commanding talent and unspot-
ted integrity and the other cunning ntrguer, des
ttute ofprincpe, and deficient in all the high attri'
butcs of philosophical statesman.
We believe, too that the election OF Judge w hite
will be more conducive to the harmony and pros
periiy of the country, even than the success oil
bona file Wing candidate. He presents to tic
honest and unpicudIced, of both parties, sort OF
neutral ground holding DOT terms OF compromise,
which they may mutually accede 10 upon honora
BILE terms. His election by portions OF both parties
would not be party triumph, and he would mol,
consequently, be party PreSidcnt-thc fountain
from which flows all the political venom that de-
sroys the peace of the Countrywide cause OF the
array of the whole community IN hostile DIVISIONS
disturbing the heathful course of legislation, eXtit
ing the wors feelings of the worst men ,elevang the
unworthy TO high places as the reward OF merceaa
~ zeal in behalf Of the stronger party, and DANISH
ing honest and Independent statesmen from the pup
lie councils for no other reason than that ihey VIII
not bow the knee TO Baal, and permit the wheels OF
Tugocrnant to crush them, without protesting q :
gainst the despo,ism of the act. VIC believe mat,
being the Presdcn, of no party but OF Ae country
Judge Whites official measures wouio nave oif Ct
reference to the good of the people, ana not 10
the etfec'uation of party oljecs. II ne DC against
the Bank it will be not because the Bank IS a9a'hs'
him, but because he believes its incorporation 10
unconstitutional and it's existence unnecessary
he veto an Internal Improvement bill Quay 10 pu"
ish his enemies in Kentucky he will not approve OF
another to morrow resting on preclse'y inc Sd"
principles, to reward his friends IN Maine--'S
