The "disorgamSing Loco Foeos," and lie Lar
ANIL mder Hhigs!"
The Wing papers occasionally level their ar
rows at the principles OF the Democratic Parry,
as tending 10 anarchy and confusion. Upon the
progressive Democracy" they lay the blame OF
all violations Of The peace, and, by the most
wire-drawn speculaIions, trace tohe principles OF
our party all the popular outbreaks, however
monstIous or alarming. il is in vain hat We
point 10 The different practicc OF The Northern
Wigs and Democrats. Every thing must be
made 10 yield to The dogmalical theory of Wing
sery-and that theory is that Democracy IS IN
itself unsound and vicious, and all breaches OF
the peace and violations of public virtue must
have sprung from SO corrupt fountain. On Inc
anli-rent rebellion in New York, the Wings have
harped long and loud-boGsting themselves as The
lovers OF law and Older, and their opponents as
the main actors in that alarming and melancholy
drama. To show what little ground there is for
their self-laudation, and 10 defend the Democrats
against a grave charge, We quote from the New
York Morning News, which, abiding 10 the re-
bellion, says:
"Thc facts relating 10 il are astounding, and
show how we'll the Wings ale entitled 10 the dis
tnction which they claim as ccnservalors OF the
peace. The seat Of Tie anl-rcni war is IN The
third Senate district OF this State. Last year The
Wing party supported for The Senate in that dis
trict The anli-rent candidate; and The Democratic
candidate, a most worthy and estimable man,
came near losing his election BY the false reports
spread among the tenants on the leasehoh es-
lales in regard 10 him. Since then, and during
the present year. this anli-ren excitement has
been blown into maddened flame, and pushed
on 10 rebellion and murder And what do We
find now7 The Anti. Renters and The district have
again nominated candidate OF their own party
for The Senate; the Wings have nominated The
same man, and are united with The Ani-RenerS
in their efforts 10 elect him. His name is raised
at the head Of The leading Wing paper OF The
State, la'c the State paper, as The candidate OF The
parry And while The Wings are Tins uniting in
his support, le IS making speeches al anti-rent
meetings, and abusing The Governor and other
Democratic authorities who are striving 10 up
hold The laws and punish crime"
The Delaware Express, (Whig,) published al
Delhi, refuses 10 support Mr.. Van Schoorhooven,
Ike nominee Of The Wings and AnIi-Renlers from
the third district. rs comments are strong and
pun.cnt, and speak language honorable 10 it
sell, and not 70 be misunderstood by its anti-Ien
Wing friends:
"Never will our support be given 70 such an
one; never will The noble pha!anx Of law-lovins
Wigs 81 old Delaware I've given 10 The man that
will thus cTinge and succumb 10 as base com
bnali as that of tie Anti Renters, 10 win their
support. We spe. k plainly, frankly, advisedy
painful though The duty be-"
This language mus, be addressed TO majority
Of The Wings, for the ar;i-ren portion succeeded
in nominating a candidate, whose sentiments the
Wing party is, OF course, presumed 10 express
