A BEAUTIFIJI GROUP.

The Wing party in miniature, may be seen IN
the following description of few of It's leaders.
In the House of Representatives of the United
States, among those who are most worshipped by
the party, is Mr. Wise, who participated, in the
murder of Ciley, and who threatened u blow
out the brains OF a witness, in committee ROBIN
MIR Prentiss, of Mississippi, renowned as a black
guard, and not member of the temperance So
cety who limps from duel wound in the knee
Mr. Bell, who struck his colleague in debate
Mr. Campbell and Mr. Maury, of Tennessee, who
BACKED each other eyes in pugilistic lecontre
Mr. Biddle, of Pennsylvania, who flung an ink
stand at the head of member--and Mr. Fetch
er, of Massachusetts who was obliged to eat up
('comma for comma') certain foul charges a.
gainst the Administration. Next in rank, comes
that notorious prmp Matthew l.. Davis, the
"Spv in Washington the libcller of jefferson,
the biographer of Aaron Burr, and chief scribe
of the federal party. He takes his seat in the
gallery to record the wise sayings of this bevy of
fighting, drinking, scuflling, and slanderous gen
Htmen, and forwards them to the Courier and En-
quirer, edited by JAS Watson Webb, (the hero
of so many unfought duels,) for publications.
They are then copied into the Hartford Courant
edited by Dwight, the Secretary of the infamous
Hartford Convention and again into the Herald
of this city, whose editor says "Tom Jefferson
was scoundrel," and that "Jm Madison ought
to have been hung" The accompaniment tc
those whig organs, such as the Palladium Mid
detowp Constitution, and other lesser lights, then
assist In dvcrglng the rays which fall from the
great chandeliers of whiggery above mentioned
and the dupes who are wandering in the be-
nghted mazes of federalism, imagine themselves
basking in the beams Of noonday-If any one
can draw more correct portrait of whirrery
we should like to see it.-MtW- HQpca RcDisfer

"SHOOT LOWER

scented his bosom to the bood-hounds, who sought
his liie--while others deprecated the sacrifice.
and thought that enough had been done to satisfy
the savage and brutal demand of those who had

man who was vociierous for blood, and demand

in the world the guilty murderer of man who
never injured him.
The blood of Cilley stains the hands of Graves :

goaded Graves on to the deed-the wretch who

by the united whig and conservative vote, in Sc

gate the dealcation of Swartwout 1t will be no
difficult matter, no trial to the code of morality
of him who stood by and told Graves to shoot

port as will please those who elected him. We
expect no faithful nvestigation--no honest state
ment-no fair expose from this committee. He
who will commit murder, or tell others how to do
