JUDGE UPslluR.
There is an editorial in the Richmond Wing OF the
25th December, which, because that paper is the or
gan Of the Wing party, ought TO be no,ced-aye, and
marked, entirely worthy Of that very consistent and
truthoving press. That all Republicans may see the
extent of the misrepresentation far the Republican
party concerned, and the depth of deceit towards
Judge Upshur, insert the article:
"Judge UpshuThe Feds have been dgent In inducing HE
impession not in circulating the repoItha, ms d .
10
the candidate Of the Wings for The Senate OF the q states no
wns me nn the
cuioses Of the Feds few not knowing him. or nc. VI"
aud put the public ther guard respecting
Vaccinations Of these gentlemen, may not be anss To
the Judge would think OF committing nm net oil
personal dshonur the Lccos to defeat
barrass the Wings or to receive political oce NJ the ahds

dtion!) they have not" -
The Feds, alias the Wings, especially the Rich
mond Clique, may have been clligent in inducing
the impression that Judge Upslnr would consent
to be used TO defeat the cnuddne of the Wings;
but that the Republicans have done any such thing
must be false. Such course would lie contrary to
their principles and against their uniform practice :
But See in this thing, the political tu-pltude of this
Richmond Wing Clique! They have IN old grudge
and n ranking jealousy, which vii not allow them TO
go further in favor of Judge upsh.r than to admins
ter disgusting dose Of laery, when il may be done
to the detrment Of the Republican party. Away with
such hypocrisy from set who have openly and avowed-
ly "ustd" one, whom they had pronounced guilty OF
the "unpardonabe sin'-a set who, now, IN the face
of day, and against such pure the; represent
Judge Upshur to be- openly confess they ae bound, IN
honor, pay Judas his thirty pieces. This is the po-
tical morality of certain clique, whose head is the
genius that prcsides over the Richmond WaIg! What
honest man. setting aside the the Richmond Clique
made Of VIM. G.. Rves, tell why Wing should
vote for him to represent the people of Virginia in the
0f he ted |
give any other for preferring Rives any Wing
of such character Judge Upshur, ether han the re-
compense of the reward What wonder, that any and
every honest Democrat would prefer smcf Wing TO
VIM. G. Rives; who, by his own conessiors IS neither
Wing nor Democrat; but precious little "Gonservave
Expunger:
The Wing article is an insidious stab at Judge Up
shur The Judge, venture to say, cares not fig for
its praises or lis ccnsurc and is not al all sxous 10 90
to the Senate-but he has never declined BIS countrys
service when called 10 it.-"Loco Focos arc as much
above using him, he is above being usedby them or
being deceived by the hypocrisy of the Richmond
Wing. Judge Upshur is just the man whs would not
like VIM. G.. Rives allow himself 10 be used by any
clique that may accidentally conroul part. Let the
supporters of VIM. G.. RlYes, at the biddng of the
petty "Conservative" factIon-force him upon the
Wings and Democrats Of Virgina-go hone TO honest
mon in tho country and tell them, Par.y hnour COM
PEELED us reward VIM. G. Rivcs, and w voted for
him" If mistake not the Virginia char cter, they
will receive this answer:-"l thought you lToessed TO
90 for your country. You tell US the Whlys are the
true patriois-you could have elected any rhg the
State: Why then elect man who never professcd
either your name or your principles: Doyu call this
patriotism To us, it looks like faction mixed
with something verse" This would naturally be the
reasoning of common sense and common honesty
trust the Democrats in the Legislature viii do las
they always have done) the best they car for their
country, naugre the misrepresentation OF the Rich
mond Wing None doubts they will do all hey 10
elect Democrat. Failing in this, their constituents
will expect them to act upon princPlesn common
sense and do their best to elect Stsesghts
of the Wing party. Regarding VIM c. Rres as they
do, and knowing the public sentiment as iId'cated by
the Presidential election, they bound by every
principle of honor and patriotism to use ALTAR means
10 prevent the "Conservative" faction from imposing
man upon us SO unacceptable to large marlty Of the
people, as WIN. G. Rives
