To THE WINGS.

TO THE WINGS.
From the Memphis Enquirer, learn that
"A conversati ton between two Locofocos o.
verheard n few weeks since in Maury county,
from which it gathered, that there was in
preparation something which was to have ire
mendous effect against Gen Harrison. Tho same
thing leaked in East Tennessee about the
same time. One of the Maury conspirators
pressed Impotence at its delay, while the other
sal it would be out in full tme.'
The Louisville Journal says: 'Whilst a highly
respectable friend of ours passing little knot
of Locofocos on Wednesday, he heard one of them
exciaim;ng TO his fellows with great vehemence
II will tell you, gentlemen, the exposition is al
most ready: 1t will be out in few days, and
the effect will be tremendous. II will amaze the
whole country Ii will overwhelm Harrison
rv where. 1t will carry even kentucky against
him.'
We invite your attention to the above para
graphs. 1t is evident from indications, which
daily growing moro strong, that some desperate
effort be made by tho leaders Of the party in
power, To defeat the election of Gen. Harrison,
and IT behooves every friend of his country to a.
rouse-to BIO on the alert, to meet any aud every
attempt of the Fede ralists to impose upon the Peo
pie.
In addition TO the paragraphs quoted above,
have other evidence that there is some bold and
desperate movement to take place; or, III the Ian
guage of the leader of the Van Buren, party in
New York city, that 'Mr Van Buren, has q card
yet to play 'rhich of his friends suspcct.'
Mr. Dromgoo.o Van Buren, member of Congress
told his friends not 10 despair, uor give up the
contest ,--"For," said he, eve will beat the Wing
party; by FAIR means if tce can; and if not, why
then, t0H do Il by aacans!!!'
From the Louisville City Gazette, (than which
no paper that we know OF, stands higher for the
correctness of its sta,ements,i we copy the fol-
lowing:
''We have heard that recently, an Irish labor
er on the tunnel in the vicinity of the Generals
residence, absolutely cut club, with the deliber
ate and avowed intcntio of assaulting and muir
derng him and went to his house for that pur-
pose, but in,irnldated by the resolutc bea ring
of the veteran patriot, and the presence of other
persons"
And who, that will look at the desperation evin-
ced BY the leaders of the party who now retain
the offices of the Gov eminent, will doubt that they
are ready to perpetrate any act that Will enable
them hold 10 their i'll gotten power Ifanv
such there be, let them remember the wiul and
deliberate act Of peIfidy, of which n. jersey
the victim at the last session OF Congress. --Let
them review the past history of Amos Kendall,
F. p. Blair. and the rest of the clique, who sur
round Mr.. Van Buren, and fill the offices within
his gift.
The more we have thought Of these things and
of the characters of the two scoundrels who are
the prime leaders of the Federal party. we think
that IT Is more ana more probable that ASSAS-
SINATION is the card Mr. Van Buren has vet
to play. Again say, let the Wings be on their
guard The mail, most likely, viii be the engine
to be used to favor their last and most desperate
move. 1t is in their hands, and the leading pos;
masters hut the servile tools of Martin Van
Buren, and his villanous clique. Put faith IN
any thing which may emanate from any of their
reservoirs of poutIon--ihe Globe, Adv er;lser,

h1The Evening Post. one of the o ruans of Van
Burenism in New York, has put forth a rebuke
upon the coarseness and mendacitv OF the Globe
as follows:
at is STOPPING 10 dirty and profligate expedi-
ents which degrade party disputes Conducted
as it ought to be, fairly and honorabIy in a Just
and generous spirit, political controversy is high
intellectual contest between friends of different
systems of legislation, and as human nature is
constituted, 1t Is not desirable that it should be
done away. But when men descend to do anv
thing which twill help the party without regard
to truth. justice, or deceney when men saw what
they do not believe, encourage preildlces
which they know to be unreasonable. or circu-
late facts which they know to be slanderous. for
party etfect,it becomes no better than quarrel
among coiners and cut-throais"
About thirty streets of the city of Pompe ii are
now restored, forming a third part of the town
the walls which formed its ancient enclosure have
been recognized; mas nificent amphitheatre a
theatre. forum, the temple of Isis. that of Ven
US, and a number Of other buildings have been
cleared; the stairs by which the priests of
those times silly crePt to prompt the oracies have
been detected; but the works are progressing
very slow, owing to the want of funds
