Richmond daily Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1842-1861, 1843-09-28


We invite particular attention to the subloined
communication.
The Wings in the country, are looking with in
tense anxiety, TO our movements in this CITY. Pos
sessing the largest, most intelligent, and most en-
tirely Wing poPulaton of any city in the State
Richmond must always have vast influence upon
the success or failure of the Wing cause We
tell Our friends that now is the time to organ
izc. Old Jefferson has set example to the other
wards which they must follow, or prove recrcant
to all they hold most sacred. If the position she
has taken he premature, it is still necessary to
maintain it. Any retrograde movemcnt--any he
station even, must be fraught with the highest
danger. But it is not premature. 1t is never 90
early to commence such work as that in which
we arc about to engage.
We entreat our friends OF Madison and Monroe
Wards, TO step forward at once and respond To
their brethren Of Jefferson. Why not meet, each
o! them IN turn, at the City Hall. 1t belongs TO
the city, and Is open for all public purposes. Let
number OF them unite, and give a call at once
Our word upon 1t, ii will be answered by the en-.
tire population Of the two upper Wards.
Iohc Ways Of Madison and Monroe Wards.
The movement for organization in jefferson Ward has
attracted the attention OF the whole country inspiring our
Wing friends with pleasure the discovery that tho old
spirit OF 1910, still survives, and even burns the brighter
tor the wrongs and ndigncs which have been aecumua
TED upon the Wing party aud appsng our opponents that
c hlohablc ardor, and conquerng energy displayed in
that year, by this, the enlightened Wing community
IN America, will be noby ssaincd and probably transcen
ded IN 1874.
But the Central and Western Wards have not followed up
he TNpN ont tfh 81.
From local circumstances they arc Offering too long the
response which patriotism owes and inclination ia pren,,cd
to make, 10 old Jefferson. l. and all here know that the
dilhcuy OF finding suitable place Of meeting j. the de-
uyng obstacle But will the country know thisl Will

very few think IL too soon to move. Let us remind
those who think that that is the question The
Increment has been begun and my opinion not too soon
begun: but II were, it l. late recall it, Not to 90

therefore onlfeal the Wings Of Madison and Monroe
Wards 10 put themselves IN motion and without a days
delay, organize for that crisis, which msrue first and
reachsy last, have forced upon the country. November
