Marshal and present Member of Congress from
this State and that able champion OF the Wing
cause, George S. Yerger, Esq. The spacious

ner' and the softer SEX Wing and Loco Foco,
| Jew and Gentle, all came to this grand auto de
| fe Of Polkism in the person of its sponsor and
yicegercnt, DR.. Gwin. The debate was opened
| nv Dr. Gwin and continued until past the witch
iuq hour of midnight. He made furious
assault upon the Protective system aud the Wing

manufacturers, and held up Polk as the Moses
