The Courier & Enqnirer's Attack on the "hiG
Candidate for Governor.
The long trumpeted demonstration Of the Courier
x Enquirer against joins YousG. the Wing candi-
date for Governor and obliquely in favor of the
reelection Of Silas Wright, was made yesterday,
and is transferred ger5atim to our paper to-day
Our columns ARE so crowded By it that We are
obliged to compress Cur remarks thereon into the
smallest possible space.
!. That the Courier Ind long ago given notice
that it did not recognize any radical Of the Tn
bune School as q Wing and would support none
such for Governor is well known That it had seen
fit, b. very pluin implication 10 place John Young
in this category. was also notorious The Wing
State Convention probably made its nomination for
Governor with lively consciousness that it did not

sedulously charging or insinuating that Mr. Young
was m Anti-Renter meaning thereby that he was
in favor OF despoiiing landlords of their property
and giving IMMUNITY to lawless violence and out
rage. So much being certain, it is obvious that If
the Convention had deemed Mr.. Youpgs views
ambiguous or Objectionable its plain duty was to
reject him as candidate or institute the needful
inquiries to remove the objections complained Of
But that Convention deliberately placed him IN
nominston. asking him DO questions imposing on
him no pledges and authorizing no Committee
person 10 catechise him. Thus the Convention LEFT
the matter
H. Now the letter Of Col 'ebb to Mr. Young
with which the former favors the public however
harmless in its terms, conveys the grossest impu-
taticn on the capacity and fidelity of the Wing
State Convention. Here were Delegates assem-
bled from every County OF the State, most Of them
Wings of tested fidelity, including such men as
PHrIIp HONE, CHRISTOPHER MORGAN, HUGH
WHITE, joins a. KING, FRIEND HUMPHREY, AMOS

WIN. c. HAsBReucK, JAMES A. FAMILToS, &c. &c
These had unanimously concured in the nomina-
ton of Mr. Young, none Of them had suggested the
propriety OF questioning Inn on any subject. Is II
not, then palpably presumptuous IN any man
to say, as Col Webb virtually does By his letter
: The Convention has not been sufficiently careful
of the integrity and interests Of the Wing party
must tako the matter in hand If tins had been
done by whom the whole State would say
were the right men to do it il any body-ii such
as David B. Ogden, Luther Bradish George Wood
James G. King, &c. had undertaken TO test the
souIdness OF Mr. Young's views after a Wing
State Convention had presented him for Governor
We should even then have deemed the procedure
barely warranted by the lofty character and sturdy
principles of the 90 crisis but VIXEN the task is
sumed by one WHO came among us but a few years
ago and under such peculiar circumstances-one
who certainly brought to little either OF charac
ter or strep 9Th, and whose coarse and conduct
while proiessedly with US has not been calculated
TO win converts to our cause nor enviable reputa

involved disrespeci 10 the Convention and 10 the
Wings Of our State therein represented
III. Col " ebb requires of Mr.. Young a pledge
that he will favor no legislation intended directly
or indirectly 10 interfere with The rsS.ed rgi4S Of

pledge what would it have amounted 10 Does It

OF the very vasuest character intended merely to

MI 1oans which are deemed Questionable by the
Courier.
