THE LOCO FOCO RESORT.

So desperately bent are the Loco Focos upon
something like confidence into their Respondent
ranks. by proclaimins pretended changes, that i,
keeps the slandered Wings busy in contradicting
those silly reports of their desertion. Go on. gen.
tlemen Locos, you have a short time yet to brag
and lie, but the LIST of September is at hand,
and between by that time you will see enough
to satisfy you that the American People understand
you as well now as they did in 1870. Depend up
on il, gentlemen, no man will desert the Wing
party now, unless it be some OF those rare birds
who never happy unless they are in a minority.
Never have we been more deeply impressed than
now with the overwhelming power and energy of
The Wing Party; never has its unconquerable spir-
it been more fully arou'ed and never has any par.
ty received so unparalleled routs as that which
awaits the Intrigue Candidates" next fall. The
way we treated Martin Van Buren, in 1910, will
be mercy to the hurricane that will sweep this
organised faction Of Free Traders and Disunonists
from the land.

SlLAS WRIGHT, OF NEW YORK.

This gentleman has been pronounced by his po-
litical friends to be "the Cato of America" " a
Star Of the FIRST magnitude in the political hrma-
ment,'-he was offered the nomination of the Bal
timore Loco Foco Convention, which he declined
he was actually nominated for the office of Vice
President, which he rejected-and yet, mark /, ye
enquirers after truth
Sils Wright voted against the TFeaty for the
annexation Of Texas TO this Union, and adopts fully
the enlis hteued views of Mr.. Clay and Martin Van
Buren, upon that great National question Well
does this fact subssntate the charges of rank by
pocrscy and desitu,ion of principle in the Loco
Foco leaders, and shews that their present cry of
" Polk aad Dallas" is desperate alternative re-
sorted to because they failed in getting Wright
and Anti Texas"
And Ye, this is Party which has the assurance
to say they go for principles not men!!! Mr..
Benton has orciby advertsd to these facts to shew
the base "intrigue" and conspiracy which
marked the result of the Baltimore Loco Foco
Convention.
Mr. Wright, in a speech at Castle Garden in n.
York, as much as proclsims il impudence and as
surance in james X. Polk to accept the nomination
under the circumstances under which il was con-
fsrred upon him.
The clouds are gathering heavily over the "Ln-
trisae Candidates." and in few months the
lightning Of Public Indignation will scathe them
with its scorchipg and terrific fires.

SHOCKING RIOTS IN PHILADEL.
PHlA.

We perform a most Notifying duty in announce
ing that Philadelphia city once designated by the
welldsserved title of 'the City of Brothsrly Love- "
has within the past week been the scene of mobs,
riots, and bloodshed. These lamentabe disor-
ders have grown out Of the eud between the Native
Americans and Foreigners, but the accounts in the
newspapers are much confused that il is ex-
tremey difficult to ascertain the cause or object Of
the excitement. Our exchanges full of details
which we have no room for to day. The follow
ing extrac. from the Intelligencer presents some
idea of the origin of the matter.

their crops to market before seeding This 10 an
advantage which we enjoy over the grsin-gro~ins
States Of tho North, and one which the farmers
here no doub, fully appreciate, for in nine cases
GU, Of ten wheat bears better price between mar
vest and seed time than at any other period Of 'ne

showers having made up for tho drought OF the

cheap. and the gardens teeming with all the yege-
tables Of the season.
Truly ours is a noble Country and would at all
times be prosperous IL We were free from
"pestilential demagogues," who have ever besn
found greater bsne TO the prosperity of Nation
than the Fly in wheat--tbe worm in eorn--the rot
in sheep, or any other disaster which affects the
agricultural interest.

A SPECIMEN OF LOCO FOCO
HARMONY.

We hear so much 10 these times Of the friendly
feeling. union, and harmony existing in the Loco
Foco ranks, that we here insert toast given at q
"Polk and Dallas" dinner in honor Of Mr.. Pick
ems in the Abbeville District, s. c.
by James Lindsay: Polk and Dallas, Tszas
and Oregon Thomas n. Bentos--He has recent
b basely deserted the honor and the interests Of bis
Country and from bad motives; that Country will
never forgive or forge, IT,"
All this fury Is directed against Mr. Benton be-
cause Of his wise and statesmanlike opposition to
the Texas Annexation Treaty. The People will
not forget that Mr. Pickens was one Of the gentle
men who arose, amidst cheers and aeclsmations, in
the Baltimore Convention, and pledged the vote Of
South Carolina for Polk, and boosted in public
since bis return home of the great triumph gained
over Mr.. Van Buren, in Mr.. Folks nomination. Il
is a question Of solemn importance for all right
thinking and Union loving freemen to address, to
themselves" Are such men fit to be entrusted
with the destnies of this great Nation"
Again they say in one Of the regular toasts -
"Our Republican Brethren ghout the Uxi-
on-We rely on their Plghted faith to relieve us
from odious Tariff, but if we should be disap-
pointed in this, will rely upon ourselves alone,
and leave the consequences to God"
These are the partriots who have had such a
jubilee throughout South Carolina over Mr. Folks
nomination. Mr.. Polk is known to be Free
Trade man, and to have denounced the Tariff Of
1892 as "odious, &C." and they calculate on his
aid in carrying out their plans to dissolve the Uni.
on. Let these demagogues read the sentiments of
the People in swo-ihirds Of the States OF the Uni
on, and they will find fixed determination to sus-
tain and protec, the industry Of the Country--"t
frown upon their attempts at disunion," and If
needs be, to chastise their disobedent child. The
spirit manifested by the Polkites Of South Carroll
ua, shews how much an old, wise, and expe-
rienced head like Mr. Clay's 10 needed at the helm
Of State. Asws regard liberties, 10, US ponder
on this solemn question.

THE WORK GOES BRAvELY ON

The Berkeley Clay Club met on Friday evening
last, ct the Clab-House in Msrtinsburg. The
house was crowded to ove,aowing, in expectation
Of hearing speech from VIM. 3. Thompson. Esq.
We regret to learn that Mr.. Thompson pre-
vented from being here by indispositon, bu, we
trust we shall have the pleasure Of Dir. Tbomp-
sens company at the next regular meeting Of the
Club, which takes place on Saturday evening, the

Jas. E. Stewart, ESQ, being called on by the
meeting responded to the call in speech of about
an hour in length. D. II. Conrad, Esq, also adj

The Wing cause in " Old Berkeley" is onward.
On motion of Mr.. Dorsey. the Building Com

i,tee of the Clay Club, were requested to meet at
Jas. Z. Stewards Office on Friday afternoon, Ito
morrow tho I2th inst, at 4 o'clock, P. M. pre-
pared TO make their reports.
The night Of meeting is changed to Saturday.
and we hope our friends in the country will find i,
more convenient to attend. Come on, boys-let
Us be wide awake-the prospects are Frightening
every day. and the good cause is spreading like
wild ERE throughout the State.
Immediately after the adjournment Of the Wing
County meeting on Monday, our President, Col E.
7. Hunter. called the Clay Club to order, and in.
,roduced Col. Edward Colston, who addressed the
meeting for upwards Of an hour and half, in
very plain, forcible and logical defence Of the Pro-
tee,ive system. We wish the assembled People Of
Berkeley Count, could have heard the speech Of
their distinguished fellow-citizen on Monday last.
It was indeed eiaeher, and we regret that for
want Of room cannot take more extended
tice of il this week. Col. Coston has promised to
address the People again before tie close of the
canvass, and we will endeavor to give our readers
full notice. so that every Wing in the County who
can get here may come. He is just the man to
nddress the People.

BALTIMORE LOCO FOCO CON-
VENTION.

Spread it before the People. ye Wing orators
make it your daily text-poke it at them at every
corner of the streets, that THOMAS HART BENToS,
the great and leading oracle of the Loco Focos, in
a letter bearing date juno Sd, 1874, to Gen. Van
Antwerp has pronounced the result of this hum
bug Convention to be " an intrigue which nulhf
ed the choice Of the People, and the principles
of our Government" Again, in the same letter
most truly does he predic, -" that the People now,
twenty years ago, will teach the Congress in
trisuers to attend to law making and lie, President
making and unmsking alone" Well and wisely
predicted, Mr.. Benton. Is it true, Locos, as you
say that Col. Benton has never failed in any OF his
predictions

THE WING CAUSE ONWARD.

Every day brings us the most gratifying eviden-
ces Of accessions to the Wing cause. If we were
to attempt TO spread before our readers all the de-
tails of the changes now in progress to the Wing
ranks, we should have room for nothing else. Let
our friends be assured the work is going bravely
on"-that each day develops the hollowness OF
those professions Of confidence which marked the
frs, stages of the Baltimore humbus nomination
that the Wing party is every where aroused through
out the Union, and that great, glorious. and tr-
umphant victory awaits US in the fall. "To your
tents, Oh! Israel"
