THE COALITIONS OF THE WINGS.

Tie Wings still hope 10 defeat us, partly by a
system OF Dragging, partly by corrupt coalitions in
the North, and partly by 4 fraudulent system OF
pipc-aying which they leave to their Northern
conederales 10 carry oui; but they will come in for
snacks al the conclusion of the game. Why did
the Wing OF Thursday last eXcaim, row we shall
beat you, because our coalition with the Natives

of New York and Philadelphia cxult 50 much in
their prospects, if they are not aware Of the mo
ncv they had collected and OF the agencies they
had employed 10 pipc-lay the States which they
intend to invade BIZ foreign voters? The calcula-
tons which they are making are conveyed 10 their
friends in the South in distant srrini>cs or mys-
tericus revelations.

they are operating. Here is his reply

the Wings are counting TOO much upon their
host, and that the free and incorruptble people oil

Republic. The schemes of the Wings are no

They are irving 10 corrupt the great principle

We have accounts from various quarters, OF
