UNANlMIrY OF PURPOSE.

We attempted some time ago to show the de-
ceptve character of the motives addressed to the
South in favor of annexation, and argued that the
annexation OF Texas, while it would add in tri-
fling degree to the immediate strength of the
South, would eventually, by drawing away the
slave population to the extreme South, strengthen
the North. The Augusta Age, Locofoco an.
nexation paper, printed in Maine, copies our arti-
Gle, and adopts it's reasoning, which it alleges to
be its motive for advocating the measure. The
editor says frankly that he favors annexation be-
cause it will strengthens the NORTH At the
South the measure has been got up to give rela-
tive strength TO the SOUTH! The editor says
upon full and dspassionate survey of the
whole ground, we are thoroughly satisfied that
the annexation of Texas will ameliorate the con.
dltion of the slave, and add to the number and
power of the free States"

The Louisville Journal says that when Hon
Cave Johnson, and two other Locofocos, were
passing through Wheeling, Va, short time
since, they were prevailed ON to address Loco.
foco meeting at that place. Cave Johnson, in
the Course of his speech, undertook to describe
the principles OF Mr.. Clay. I'D, you say, cried
warm Locofnco in the crowd, that those are
Mr.. Clay's principles - IL do" said Cave.
Well, then, hurrah for Clay y exclaimed the
Locofoco.
When Johnson, and the other Locofoco honor
ables, got OH board the steamboat at the Wheel
ing wharf, cry was raised in the midst of a
large crowd on shore, three cheers for Polk
and Dallas !" The call was responded TO by a
lew individuals, who seemed AFRAID to hear the
sound OF their own voices. Then some one
shouted mine cheers for Clay and Frelinghuy.

sounded with the thunder of the names of the
glorious Wing candidates.

eve of accomplishment. Mr.. Van Buren,, as we
have shown above, expended twenty-eight mil
lions of ready money, together with the current
revenue, and eight millions of borrowed money,
which he left the Wings to pay. The Wings
have restored commercial confidence, brought the
expenses of Government far within the revenue,
and will, in short time, pay off the Locofoco
debt. In proof of this assertion, we adduce the
following facts, derived from official sources.
The appropriations, as above stated, amount to
twenty-one million seven hundred and seventy
seven thousand dollars. The receipts at one
custom house, that of New York, will exceed
that amounts ard the whole revenue, from i'm
ports and the public lands, it is estimated, will be
forty millions--leavng an excess over expendi-
lures of about nineteen millions. Such is the
operation of The Wing tariff, which it was assert
ed would ruin the revenue by excluding foreign
importatons.

Wing SPIRIT IN KENTUcKY.-We fnd in the
Louisville Journal glowing account of Wing
meeting held in that city on the evening of the
22j, which it represents as far exceeding both in
numbers and enthusiasm, the greatest of the
memorable gatherings Of 1910. The immense
th-ong were addressed by Charles M. Thurston
Esq. and Mr.. James s. Speed, of Louisville, ant
Maj. Rollins, Of Missouri, in speeches repete with
patriotic feeling, and glowing with eloquence.---
During The evening Hon. William P. Thonasson,
the able and worthy Representative of the Louis
vile district, arrived from Washington, and i'm
mediately made his way to the speakers stand,
under the calls and amid the shouts of 5000 free
men.

WING Mass MEETING IN LOWELL, MASS
BY the Lowell Courier, we learn that the Wigs
Of Lowell held mass meeting on Wednesday
evening, said to have been the largest Wing ga
thering ever held in that place; they were adj
dressed at length by General Hardin, of Illinois,
in most able and eloquent manner. He spoke
of the Tariff and its effects upon all parts Of the
country, which was received with great approba-
ton; and defined the position Of Mr., Polk from
the Register of Debates, better than Mr.. Polk
could do it himself. He indicated the Wing
measures, and showed their Importance to the
welfare of the country.

Mr. Folks letter Of acceptance is out in the
newspapers. He subscribes to one Wing prin-
ciple-by the way, the only one of any sort which
he avows. He says, if elected, he will retire
after the first term. We presume he had no prin.
ciple of his own, which was sufficiently enlarged
for the whole country, and therefore leaves his
party in different quarters to give him such sen.
timents as may suit their several localities.

WHICH IS THE BRITISH PARITY

WHICH is THE BRITISH PARTY"
The reckless, lying, demagogues who live by
duping the rank and file of Locofocoism, are in
tie habit Of calling the Wings the british par
ty" It is mos: singular that the British party"
should pursue line of conduct entirely opposed
to British interests in taxing her manufactures
And it IS equally strange that the party which
processes much holy hatred of Britain should
desire to conform the legislation Of the country
entirely to suit the wishes of Britain. And it is
i"pas-ing strange" that the anti British party
should prefer the products of British labor to that
which comes from the hands of our own country
men. But such is the fact, as was avowed by
Mr.. McDuffie, at Richmond, E his speech at that
delectable focus of orthodoxy, the Sweat house."
He said, he +" would rather purchase Of English
men, than of the vile Yankees" This sentiment
chimes in 50 well with the nomination of the
grandson of Tory, that we feel little surprise at
it, and merely chronicle it among the common
events Of the day. But taking all these facts TO.
gether, the reader will find little difficulty in an
swcrlg which is the British party 2"

Heis man of irreproachable moral character
md contrasts in that respect with the whig candi

date.
No widow and orphans weep the loss of hus

case ofCilley and the wliig candidate.
He is not cbargeable with the crimes of violating
the constitution and his oah by acting in egisla
tive body, with perfect consciousness that he had
not the constitutional qualifications, as did tie
whig candidate in the Senate ofthe United States.
He has not violated constitutions and oaths Of
office, by attempting to kill members of the legisla
tive bodies for words spoken in debate, as in the
case of II. Marshall and John Randolph, and the
whig cadidate.
He has not been the first to provoke the violation
Of law to suppress dueling, voted for by himself,
like the whig candidate
He has not, like Henry Clay, been put under
bonds to prevent his headlong passions rushing
him into the penitentiary, under law passed with
the aid of his own vote.
He has not, like Henry Clay, abused the from
tier settlers as ga lawless rabbe,' no better than
thieves, priratcs, and robbers, denying them the
privilege of buying wilderness lands which they
have, by hard work, made "to blossom as the rose
while willing to aid profigate debtors in wping
out all their debts by bankrupt law.
He has not, like Henry Clay, refused to the
poor lrishman or German, or other emgrants from
the Old World, the privilege of making lot of
waste land valuable by his labor, and buying it at
government price; nor, like the same profligate
statesman, would he permit foreign lords to pur-
chase all the bank and corporation stocks in the
country, and become the owners of national bank,
to control the value Of property and the wages of
labor-to keep the moneys Of the treasury, corrupt
public men. and govern the government.
He has none of the naughty contempt for the
laboring millions, which would induce him. like
Henry Clay, to sink the white working man below
the negro slaves.
He has not. like Henry Clay, when instructed
by his constituents to give vote for President,
or for the repeal or passage Of law, set himself up
as their master, haughtiy answered 81 ,o,H not,''
