THE NEW SCHEME
TIE Wing has grace enough TO deny The scheme
which denounced in our last, about making Mr
Rves Governor and Mr.. Leigh Sena'or 1t denies ,ha,
its conductors ever heard of any such proposition
speaks Of gubil,y-and asserts that "ihe whole is
ridiculous coinage Of The BRAIN and utterly IN worthy
Of serious notice. IF have succeeded in bIow,n1
the plot sky high, content AT all events from
this time forth The R. Wing will have sense enough 10
6isclaim and frown it down.
But the scheme was coinage of our brain We
could menon several respectable higs vino heard mad
repeated 1t, II we were al liberty TO mention names We
could name leading Wing in this city who made the
proposI,ion-and had from the gentlemen 10 whom
the proposition was made.-We could name the Anti
Rives Wing, who made the suggestion another Anti
Rives Whig, as stated III our last-and could name
for our informant, ore of the most respectable citizens
OF the State Strange that neither of the three con
duc,ors of the Richmond Wing heard Of any such
proposition. Will they please to refresh their memo.
rles about 1t: Did they never hear of il before? We
know II afoat upon streets-We know il was
subject of conversation in the Coffee house. But if
the Richmond Wing will engage 10 lend to it
The light OF lis copnienance, will henceforlh drop it
-cnnlent with having done our duty in blowing up one
OF the oulest schemes Of intrigue which has ever been
engendered in Virginia.
But what this we see in the Boston Atlas of The Bird
instanE-The Richmond Wing says its Editor left
Richmond on Friday evening" (,he 24th livery vel,
recruit, some shrewd, cute, welinformed Correspon-
dent in this city, who be pretty deep 10 the
secrets OF The Whgs-We call upon this gentleman,
who is behind the curtain, to come forth and give
another Of his revelations Wkat does he say about the
impraccabilty Of making Mr. Riyss Senator, and the
concin, arrangement for Governor and Senator Hear
him.

HE is TO be the Governor and by way OF equivalent,
