worse-wel they have, now, for The first time, an all
nifty with the Richmond Enquirer-hoth fiat on their
backs-but the Enquirer will never rise again, whilst
The Wings have still an undismayed spirit. and will go
for the glorious Harry of The West. On the Eastern
and Western Democratic majority would rest the res
possibility Of fixing upon the State any system of Edu

furcing calf with stuffed swee; balls He had kinder
feelings for gentlemen the other side than they had for
him. You, Mr. Speaker, know mere than do-please
tell some thing about all this. Some Of the leaders of
the Eastern Democracy had made false mn-es and had
been substituted by leaders Of discretion. Mr..
T. told Mr. Randolph that he had made great mistake,
but he'd made gallant retreat. The party had quite
committed itself. The people had not made mp their
minds that The Banks ought to be made political ma
chimes. The Western Democracy have the rule nov,
and the Eastern Democrats have been obliged to sub
nit The majority ought TO be held responsible for
the of things and especially in having fixed on
the State Mr. ElcD, the most Objectionable man TO
Eastern Virginia account o! his opinions of Con
ven,ion, supposed Aboitonism, and Internal Improve
ment. He would add no more 10 the dead weight the
gentlemen will have 20 carry.

frmcd the statement Of Mr.. Edmunds, he was pre-.
sent ut the time of drawing up the antibank resou
tions read by Mr. L. He referred 10 The Princeton
speech and remarked, that if j, did not satisfy gentle
men, nothing would. He doubted the justice of the
gentleman from Norfolk nssarg man "ho

MIR. TALIarEEno. My friend from Halifax has ably
forth the talents and virtues Of he eminent nominee
who has, Throughout Virginia, been long distinguish
ed. Mr. T. admired the discretion Of the gentleman from
Williamsburg and his friends, (Which had taught
hem,) in making enquiries about the vic Of the
nincc. But ought they not to have made enquiries
before they came here /: No-l!iat wouli not have
been well, because they wished to precipitate upon
the whole round of political enquiry, and thus hoped
10 cmharrass The gentleman from Williamsburg
is States Rights Wing. But only twelve months ago,
he voted for his friend from Monigomery (M.. Preston,)
and for Samuel Watts who is obnoxious to the very
charge brought against Mir Med, and against the
orthodox Wm. r. Taylor. Did the gentleman from vii.
Watts and w. L. TAYLOR Gen. Watts was known 10
be The strongest Bank man. II is we'll that the gentle
man practices more moderation. Mr. Mcdowell
is ami. Tariff Bank, approved Veto No and ditto,
and is opposed 10 any Bank scheme of tie anomalous
Wing party. The gentleman from Williamsburg is
the right wing (Sa,e Rights Of the great Wing nation
The gentleman from Essex is from the other branch
Commonly called the Federal wing) Of the Wing party.
Both thes. gentlemen go against Mr.. McDowell-and
how csn they be satisfied with any Democratic cundi-
date But the gentleman from Norfolk says, that the
Wing party have wonderful spifit-(yes truly, sort
of dsemboded spirit from The grave Of The party, raised
10 frighien US here) And he really believed that they
had little else left 10 them. Let the Wing party have its
spir.-lei it have every thing but IFS principles. The
from Norfolk had congratulate hmsel pom
the death of the Richmond Enquirer, and had pro.
nounced iis funeral Grafton Mr.. T. not surprised
at the rejoicing Of The gentleman from Norfolk and his
associates over the annunca,ion Of the death Of the
Richmond Enquirer. That paper bad been and would
be spear in the side Of Harry Of the West; and il
tural they should pray for the removal Of this last barrier
lin their opnon) IN the way of MIR. Clay But he took
man. lie and the Democrats would take that the
Enquirer should not diet had been powerful wea-
pom against the Wing party. The Wings had brough,
every thing to bear against it, to put down, but they
could not prevail YET, with all due regard for it, the
Democrats wnnld judge and act for themselves. He
understood the gentleman from Norfolk 10 say, tina, the
Richmond Enquirer had avowed its preference for Mr.
Stevenson.
mir. TAYLOR explained he had wished 10 stale that
the Enquirer and It's Editor had preference for MIR.
Stevenson.
