MORE GOOD ADyICEl

We shall continue TO sound in the ears Of our
Republican friends, from This time 10 The day of
election, the virtues OF reorganization" We lost
The Legislature last Spring for the want of it.
The Wings succeeded, because they were better
organized than we were. What lost us Wythe
The want of adequate organization. What lost
US Logan and Cabell, Matthews and Middesex,
Bath, Richie and Wood-a delegate in Meek
in the Stated The want OF efficient organiza-
ton. We must run but one candidate where
there is but one Office We must call out the
strongest man for that Office. We must concen-
trae all our votes upon him, and bring every
voter 10 the polls-and who then, doubts that We
shall carry The next Legislatnre7 Tell The Re-
publicans of Matthews and Middlesex how eyre
giously they have erred in the discharge OF their
duty-TelI The people Of Wythe, that they have
sent a Wing into their public Councils
who votes, 10 all in,ents and purposes, against
Texas, and who is willing TO saddlelhem with an
anli-Texas Wing Senator for six years-Tell the
People Of Logan and Cabell, that they have sent
Wing, and no Democrat, TO represent them q
Wood and Richie have sent here a Wing, who
is Commonwealth Attorney, and disqualified,
under the Constitution, for the seat which he
holds-and still he is prepared to vote for Wing
Senator for six years We need not tell the peo-
pie Of the Harrison District that they are now
misrepresen,ed by a Senator, who is betraying
them 10 the Whigs-and who, when he addressed
the Senate to turn out John Rutherford, was
cheered up by two Wing bottle-holders, near TO
his seat. But the People of that District will
right themselves at the next Spring Election

THE GREAT BATTLE-GROUND.


The Nashville Union, which is conducted
with great ability, by Mr.. A. o. P. Nicholson,
late distinguished member of the Legislature of
Tennessee, notices the rally which the Wing
leaders (Webs,er, Clayton, Reverdy Johnson,
&c.) are making in the Senate-a especially
the return Of Mr.. Webster to that BODY. II saws.
that THE absence OF MIR. Clay from the Senate
will leave The Wings without a leader in that
body, and 10 that post MIR. Webster will be ad-
vanced. He will head The opposition 10 the new
administration, and will doubtless have an eve
to the succession. The Northern wing of the
Wing party will claim The next President and 10
that honor they will seek to promote Mr.. Web
sier His claims have been deferred for many
years, and we shall be disappointed fhe submits
to any longer delay We are aware that the
Southern Wings will set up strong objections 10
this arrangement, but they are in a condition 10
be coerced TO asquiescence.
The Nashville Union further says, that ain the
Senate The great battle will be fought for the sue
eession-lhe first grand movement OF the Wings
will be to break down the administration, and to
this end most vigorous warfare will be waged.
The attack will be led on by Mr.. Webster, sus-
tanned by all the Wing talent that can be brought!
into the Senate. We see the arrangements
making TO bring to bear the best talents Of the
Wing Party. The absence from that body, Of
some oil the master spirits OF Democracy, who
contributed so largely to the overthrow Of the
Wings in eighteen hundred and torty-one andtwo
may give hope 10 the assailants But they will find
that if Wright and Calhoun are moi still in the
Senate, we have Buchanan, Walker. Woodbury.,
Benton, Allen and other new but efficient men,
who will be found fully able 10 sustain the ad.
