To THE WING PUBLIC.

Il
viii, IN few days, issue a Prospectus TO IN,
wing Public. disclosing the grounds on which
propose to conduct new Wig Joui nal at the city
Of Washington.
My object now. is principally to say, tina; the an.
pearance OF that Journal will only be DELAYED nm.
ul the re-aSscmbing OF Congress, on the Is, Mon.
day in Deeember-possibly, until after the Christ.
mas hoydays, until which time Congress does no,
usually enter seriously upon the discharge OF public
| business.
have also another object, which is to nss,r, N,
Wing Public that such Journal-in,end.d 70 sun.
plant no other, but to aid in the m,i,,.,,r.. .,
wing principles, sanctioned by the voice of ~
States, and Of 100000 American citizens sine.
shamelessly transsressed and disregardsd by men
VINO owe every thing to the generous confidence OF
the Wing party, and whom the decree of Fate has
enabled Tor short period, to play the tyrant-will
Ger AMY go into operation.
cannot permit the opportunity to pass, however
without eonsraiulating the Wings Of Virginia esp,.
eiSUy-ior, Virginia, heretofore so loyal to prinel
pie has supplied upon this occasion, nearly all IN.
raiiors-upon the very contemplate imprcss;o,
made upon their ranks, by the detection of r,,,..
OF some celebrity among them. Few men KNOWN,
the State better than do, or having better o,,or.
'nn'ues OF forming judgment of the curren, NJ
puohc opinion, have not yet heard, certainly. of
'he hrst Wing who had renouuced his pripciol,s
athouSh invited TO the regeneration by one Posi-
uent OF the United States, "by the Grace of Godn
'"'ee members OF Congress, two State Judges. and
TWO froie'sors of William x Mary College. The
wing leaders may sell their principles for p,ac,
present or prospective, or for the vanity or rnI,,o
mem. eSt, -.
reputation OF being supposed to rule the ruling now.
ers-but the Wing Democracy. the r,pk md g.,
whom vanity does not dupe, nor nmbi,;o, co,,,,,,
and whose single purpose is the honor rr,,,o..',,'
and liberty of their country, stand now where thew
stood in November, 1910. Never treason car.
RED over SO little accession OF strength To an enemy
or so little injured the party betrayed. Arnold
went over to King George alone and they who
"a'e betrayed The Wings, have initiated his exam.
PIC IN ti'S as well as IN other respects. The Veto

F''e existence OF the Wing party, which deserves 1

Of Caoa of trading politicians.
Let TINS noble spirit still prevail, and neither
treason, nor Presidential patronage nor all the ban
1ishmenis and seductive influence of power. can
avail against the determined will and the now in.
hamed resentment Of the Wing party. Let us. who
hoped Tor repose after SO arduous a campaign, re.

The prospective partnership between Mr. Gala |

reasons with which the Public have no concern.
