 The prompt sympathy of the whiss brings imme- diate help to the descrting democrats in their saults upon the democratic nomination.. Philo Mo- bile, in the whig Advertiser, echoes Mobile, the de- mocratc assaiant; but the is nothing but fee ble repetition and weak apology As specimen of the candor with which the most ungenerous attacks up on Col. Terry are smoothed over, it may be noticed that the Benton deserters are excused for having ngfully attacked the bank position of Terry, because they had not then received his Mobile let ter, which is so sound and satisfactory. But If this plea of ignorance be good apology for the Benton meeting, that they were in great haste to cons demn to wait for knowledge, how does it excuse those who in Mobile itself, repeat what is excusabe in Benton because they had not heard from Bentonl The democratic papers in the interior that these meetings in Benton and Cherokee were very insignificant affairs, and are very far from represent ing truly the popular feeling there. It is confidently stated that Terry will receive majorities in both counties.
 While on the subject of these proofs of wbig zeal in co operating with the deserters from the demo- cratic nomination, it occurs to us 10 speak of some other extraordinary modes of attack which the amal gamaion is in the habit of using. In Mondays Ad- vertser writer took pains to go back ts 1857, to find out that Terry favor of relief laws. Hay- ing in his opinion, produced proof of this, he compares the declarations of Terry now with these acts and declarations then, and finds him incon- sistent 10 be relied upon and therefore not entitled to public confidence.
 Excellent argument this from whig now!-espe- cially from whig who avows himself in favor of the antbank policy now. Why, 1t is notorious that te whig party in 1887 claimed be the peculiar relief party themselves. They constantly nssaied the de- mocrats as the real enemies of relief measures - They opposed the democratic candidate for Govern. they nominated, supported and urged upon the peo- pie, s. w. Oliver, of Conecuh, as 'the reform and relief candidate for Governor, against Mir. Bagby, 'the Jackson, Van Buren and nti-relie cand date. Surely, whig of thls day, who pronounces man untrustworlhy because he was a relief man in 1887, must be without memory himself or believe that the people have none. We might make similar app- cation 10 some democrats who countenance this att tack upon Terry-thenlselves having been eager and
 
 fault of the times and of all parties then. In truth, however, among the public men of that day, very few were less carried away by the delusons than Terry, who voted AGAINST the relief bill.
 We may add, too, that the writer we speak of makes another failure in referring to the year ls40 for proofs, that Terry then the peculiar friend ol the banks and the bank debtors.
 Now, in that year, as the Senate Journal will tes- tify, Col Terry himself offered resolution in the Senate, contemplating the winding up of the banks and the abolition of the system. The resolution will be found on the 29th page of the Journal. Mr. Oi- yer, of Montgomery, moved 10 substitute s'clange of system" for it's abotion-against which Terry voted, and his motion of inquiry carried, altho' in the state of public opinion then it produced nolh ing.
 Now, the who voted for relief laws when Terry opposed them-who voted to sustain the hanks when he was for winding them up, and who profess to support the policy which he is faithful ly pledged, are denouncng Aln as unworthy of con- 6dence, because they uncandidly insist he WIS once much m they knew they were them selves.
 Verify, whiggery and it's new co.laborers must have very conenptuous opinion of the public opin- ion, which they expect to influence by such cleo. tioneering.
 0G- The Albany Evening Journal is the we'll known central organ of he whg party of the State of New York, and was the official State paper when that party had possession of the State adminstra- ton. We copy the following paragraph as speci- of the ferocous spirit of enmity 10 Texas, and to the policy of Texas annexation, which is perse- vered in in that quarter.
 We do not print these atrocous sentiments with any feeling of apprehension, that British ~sr will ever work the mischief with which this incendary
