those who, though aware tia,

IRA the present Democratic party. In
Their words, the present /" Democratic"

eSeralists. This is nothing but logic,
nd Of course caRno, be objected to.
5tA. THAT the best Of the Federalisis,
,eing their ersor, have gone over to the
Wigs"
Natural enough. Wheh oftwo oppo-
lie opinions, an honest man gees tina.
hich he h s held to be totally wrong. he
,cs over to those who held the adverse
-inciple. In this case every thing cor-
Yrs to show that it was the Wings who
pfsld the nti.Eederal doctrine; and,
zen IL il were not so, this is at any event
e positive Locofoco testimony.
9th. But as - he best Of a party are
'ually but small minority, we easily
e why so few of the ola Federahsts
i've become Wings.
9Th. Senators Buchanan and Woodbu-
Z. Governor Hubbard, ex-senator Wall,
I'd other eminent Federahsts hare not
rue over TO the Wing party. Either

they have not. But, not having chang

ow far they are " honest ones" is ques-
m which thfy had better settle who are

as matter Of logic, it is sufficient to
lint out one more, the final fact
sthly THAT they did prtum Wings"

We congratulate Locofocuisrn on. the

'emises and establishes its proofs.
