Daily Richmond Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1840-1842, 1842-03-04

We have Tel, no particular qualification at the es.
Establishment Of MIR Fisk's paper in this city, on III.
ground that It would injure the Enquirer--or that
the two worthy editors would quarrel, and tell the
world what miscreants they both we're. Il is true.
we relied upon Mr. Fisk's known candour and in.
trepdity to expose the hypocrisy Of the Jun,o But
the greatest good anticipated from his paper. was
that his bold and open avowa OF the genuine Iocofo
co doctrines would open the eyes ofthe people ofVir
ginia, and admonish them, in iine Of the disastrous
results TO which those doctrines must lead. Here.
toiore tho notion has been nculcated tina, L.ocoro
eosm In Virgiaia lid not mediate any of those
dishonest and revolutionary designs imputed TO il
elsewhere. The Enquirer encouraged this idea
well knowing the law loving and the moral charae.
ter ofthe people OF Va their dees,ation Of the
destructive measures of the Locos The dccep,on
has not been without its results. Many good people
have been imposed upon and mis'eid. Mr. Fisk will
put an end to this system Of delusion and misrepre
sentaton. lie is an homes; Locofoco, and he is not
ashamed 10 avow his principles. lie does proclaim
his doctrines from the house-ops and he REQUIRES
others 20 do the same. lie is for bringing matters
to an ISSUE and reading all on, OF the Church. who
will not subscribe to tn fundamental articles Of the
Party. He believes n majority Of the Democracy
are with him land heis risht,l and he is for making
it manifest to the world. With this view. he call,
upon the Democrats to vote for no man, who will
not declare himself in favour Of prostratns the sse
Banks ut once. We annex his article on this sub.
isct, tina, the country may SEQ the real objects Of
Locofocoism. The Enquirer may denounce lis co.
adjuior as "indscost," aud wanting in the feelinps
ola gentleman, &c-bUt it canno, deny that he ia
the true exponent Of Locofoco feeling.
From Fitk's Journal.
