The reply Of "A Colbert Wing is nlhsr TOO
long for Insertion, and We are thsrshro CON-
PEELED to furnish an extract from Il;
"Tbe Editor Of the Columbus De-
moerat, conscious Of the dissention,
that exists in the Democrats ranks,
and apprehensive that the consequent
ces will be the defeat and entire over
throw Of his party, unless il can be !
counieracted by disafeetion in the ad-
verse party, with the vain expectation
Of exciting such feeling by inlimaiing
The existence Of "central clique"
which governs and controls all Of the
2 movements of tho Wing party in this
! county, seized upon the proceedings
Of the Colbert Meeting as ft occasion
!. for promulgaling his unlounded impu-

true for if any reliance can be placed in Il
