But the Ohio Statesman tells another anecdoe of
me Wing Oracle: 'This individual published By

character of the author of the modern Federal On,n

me publishers of that paper prosecuted for libel

on, the editors OF the Wing proved that every word sta

It and publish in Federal newspaper in Somerset, ac-
companied with fiatterng eulogy upon has brothers
character. The brother, Justly ncenscd at this fraud
upon him and upon the public, denounced him in the
terms above quoted
Such is said TO be the character of man, whose
ulmouthed Speech is quoted by the Wing press and
the Wing log cabins, decent and very high autho
ry. 5000 copies of that Speech were ordered to be
printed by the Tippecanoe Club of this cityand it is
said that p goo copies have been placed at their dspo

claim every State that have specified In some
of them, the contest will be tremendous--but we
are just sanguine about carving them, with
one two exceptions, as the wing Seer can be
Upon that great State, with which we are best acquant
ed, we entertain the strongest assurances We know,
that we are day gaining ground IN Virginia; and
though we do not brag about converts, as the Wing
processes do, could put our finger upon them In
one county on the Rnppahannock, we understand one
of the most distinguished Wings has abandoned their
ranks and that 30 90 others who voted last Spring
for the Wing candidate, will not vote for Gen HARRISON
