Courier and The Tribune retiec, different phases OF
Public Opinion and speak from different points OF
observation. There be nothing lost while some
thing may be gained BY presenting our opposite

disseminated with sach unwearied industry by the
Loco Foco and sham neutral Press. We trus; this

We concur in the Courier Eve points OF Wing
serv. and We, we think there is in the elemental
principle end vital bond OF the Wing party. some
thing more and deeper than these. The difference
between the great parties would remain. though
these impotan; points were set At rest for ever 10

Political an,agonism in few words may not be easy,
and yet our idea of the difference may be imper.
fectly expressed thus-The Wing party is the
champion OF general CONCORD or united interests,
and thrves with these; the Loco Foco is the party
