Tho Winchester Virginia. say, We did not
place It IN It's ''ProPer position" BY our re-
marks 0i the l5th Ir,l. Although a ha. come
out in opposition 10 the Administration, 80 FAR
as TO refuse its support any longer TO the Sub
Treasury scheme, yet she virginian says At
will still be satisfied TO rank among tie firm
supporters Of Mr.. Van Buren's frm Admins
traitor" To this NO have not the slishteSt
objection. We have no disposition 10 deprive
tie Sirginian Of The sal 1sciioa of being rank
ed among the j,Sm supporters OF Mr.. Van Blu
in being lhuS ranked" so are We. We as
sure the virsinisn. that We did not ia,enj, as
1t asserts, Ito transfer 1t by Wholesale mo the
ranks Of The Opposition" by the remarks in
question. Our object was merely to show,
that paper which had been amongst the frsl
sad most Jealous supporters Of the Sub
Treasury Scheme, had changed ground and
placed itself in opposition to tho measure
This We think We did eonclusively, 'by the
Rsgic power Of a single sentence" from the
editorial remarks OF the virGinian, OF the 7Ih
int. Speaking OF the debate in the Senate on
the sub-Treasury bill, The virginian Of that
date says:
I'VE pretend not to decide how far the ar
gumeHts IN it, support have been conclusive
or the objections 10 II fully met. We are sa-
tished, however, that under existing circum.
stances and the amount Of op2Osition TO the
bill indicated from various sources, IL cannot
Be sustained By its IiieHd, or sanctioned By the
people"
Now, il this IS not going over BY whole
sale" to the ranks Of the Opposition, it is, to
say the least, forming "a connection with
IVhis society" by retail The sub-Trsa,ury
Scheme is the great, leading, aud faVorits
measure Of the Administrations measure
OF the greatest moment, which now asitaies
the country from one extremity Of the Union
10 tho er-forming the main question
which DOW divides the two great parties OF
the eountry,--and yet the Virginian ould de-
! ny that its translation from the Van Buren,
TO the Wing Side Of this momenious question,
forms any kind Of connection with Wig 90
! ciety"-and contends that il Is still "a finn
supporter Of Mr.. Van Burcn's hrm Admins
lration" II Mr.. Van Buren, and his SUBJ
Treasury friends deem this opposition to Iheir
darling measure . proof Of firm support"
VIC shall DC satisfied. We Ike to sec suel
'hrm supporters" Mr.. Rires, Mr.. Tallmsdge
and the Madisonisn, are Of this elass-snd al.
ready the Globe aud its party are crying oul
save IL from our frionds"- deliver " from
all such firm" supporters But, let this pass
/ We care bot little what the Virsinian sup
ports, or what it opposes. Ills enough for u.
