Consistency
Time was, when any respectable Party IN Virginia
would have disdaned TO employ or to paronse fress
so reckless dead all of dignity or decency,
and sorry 10 say, utterly regardless oi ruin,
as the "R,chmond Wing" MIR Jefferson used to say,
tina, those who paironzed and paid for sanderous and
scurrous newspapers, were the real authors oil Tue
SANDER and scnrrily, and not the Editor thereof-and
really the Owing" Party IN Virginia have much 10
answer for acc ording this rule; for their organ Is The
mos, unworthy Of presses and it the understand
no and intelligence of its readers with the utmost con-
tempt In truth il is insult TO the Editorial ira
ternity to call or regard such men Editors. Let
Msssrs John III. Peasants and Alexander Aloseley
assume henceforth the title as they doubtless have
the qualifications, of circus eloions, but let them no
longer be regarded either Editors or as writers,
to whose statements any credence is to be attached by
the public The pretended explanation about the Plea
SAINTS Hoa is contemplate enough but it is more than
Mr. Clays South American Ambassador can do 10 make
the people of Virginia beiere that his explanation is
either sincere. No! the explanation only adds
hypocrisy TO the original crime; for 1t Is evident mat
this conspiracy did exist, and that tcasahts and Nose
lev and their Clique have resorted TO this lame stratagen
to rid themselves and their party of the odun winch so
Justly attached to them for 50 criminal an affair Gan
any believe, that il Gas Mr. Peasants says,) 1t was
only hoax he would not have informed his political
and confidential tiend Noseey thereof, IN order that
the latter might be prepared and on his guard TO answer
the attacks of his opponents the subject And yet
MIR Moseley did believe in it, which proves the expa-
nation to be an af,er.lhought, and humbug to prize
e malicious concern out of the mre. But have
neither time nor space to devote 10 this affair, and will
conclude BY exhibiting the following beautiful sample
of consistency in the "Iichmond Tergversator and
