Mr.. Davis, again.

We have received another communication
from Mr.. Davis in relation to the votes OF the
Wings for supplies to carry on the war; but as
it is not in relation to anything that we have
said. but merely an attempt to sustain certain
statements of his to which we did not refer, he
has no claim on us for hearing. He must,
indeed, suppose us little green, if he thinks
that we shall allow the State agent OF the
Liberty party to use our columns as medium
Of attacks on the Wings. He has the papers
of his own party, and, beside that, women and
children have been called on to contribute, and
doubtless have contributed to furnish other
avenues of which he can avail himself, II ne
chooses. We publish paper to disseminate
Wing principles, and we should never think
of asking our opponents for place in their
columns to advance our object, while we have
onr own medium of influencing the public !;
and what we should not ask ourselves, we
ahalI not give to others in case like the pres
emf. The first communication OF Mr.. DAVIS
WAS a different affair. 1t was more OF per-
soraI character. He has had chance to ex-
,,a;n and defend himself, and though the ex-
,,,ration NAV have made the matter worse Tor

The Locos in the Senate of MARYLAND at
tempted to defeat the election of the U. S.
Senator by Withdrawing from the Senate, and
leaving it without a quorum but this trick
did no good in the end, and Mr.. Pearce was
finally elected. Whatindignation would have
been vented on the Wings had they attempt
ed such a thing !-Tri6ane.
Attempted such thing Indeed, hav'nt
they actually done worse than this in Iowa,
and thus deprived that young and growing
State of its Just rights in the councils of tie
nation :-Times.
The facts in relation to Iowa are as follows:
At the last election the Wings and 'Possums,'
as they are called, united, had majority in
the House, and the Locos in the Senate-the
Wings and 'Possums' on Joint ballot. A Con-
vention of both houses was held and a Wing
Judge and some other officers were chosen
The Locos in the Senate saw from this that
should they 60 into convention, Wing Sena-
tors would be chosen by the union of the
Wings and Possums; they, therefore, refused
to go into Convention, and the Legislature ad-
journed without electing Senators. Soon Of
ter, some of the Wing members resigned and
unexpectedly Locos were elected in their stead.
The Loco Governor then Immediately called
an extra session for the choice of Senators, but
before the Legislature met one or two of the
Loco members having moved out of the dis
tricts from which they had been chosen, which
of course destroyed their right to their seats,
sent in their resignation. But the Governor
seeing that this would defeat the object he had
in view in calling the Legislature together, re-
fused to receive their designations, and they
appeared to represent districts in which they
did not reside. The Wings and Possums still
having majority of the House, though not
mojority on joint ballot, very properly, under
such circumstances, when men were to be al
lowed to vote who had no right so to do, re-
fused to 90 into Convention. Every one can
see, then, that there is great difference be-
tween the two cases. In one case the consti-
tuition had been complied with, in the other
there was an attempt to elect men In defiance
of it.
The northern tribune. [volume] (Bath, Me.) 1847-1855, 1848-03-01

gress were united in favor of the scheme, while
among the Wings there has been differences of
opinion as to the best way of ending the war,
which is to be expected in large party ex
tending over so many different sections. We
should expect liberty papers either to defend
their party or give their views on the course,
but we should never think of their throwing
to accuse their public men and to put the
worst possible construction on their course
We have said more perhaps than is necessary
in relation to this matter. plain but decd-
ed refusal would be all that Wings, perhaps,
would deem necessary in the case, but we
suppose that both Liberty party papers and the
organ of the Locos will attack us for our
course, and therefore we have argued it thus
at length. Mr.. Davis certainly cannot accuse
US of trying to stihe discussion, when he him
self, when resolution was introduced into
the late Convention, intended to test the sim
certify of his party, moved to lay the question of
reception on the table.
AS far as regards the course of the Wing
party in relation to the war, it is sufficient to
say, that their opponents consider it the great
question between the parties. 1t is strange
indeed if the Wings are SO much in favor Of
the war as Mr.. Davis would have US believe,
that they should be so bitterly accused o.
opposing it, by every Loco, from President
Polk down to the smallest fry. The course of
the Wing party, too, has met with the appro-
baton of the people; they have shown that
appreciation by electing majority of Wings
to the House of Representatives they will
show it by choosing Wing President In
doing this they have, and will take the most
effectual way in our estimation to put stop
to the war, and as a result the aoar soiU stop--a
more important thing as we think, than is the
vote of this or that particular individual
Although, when in meeting open to all,
false impression is given, we deem it the duty
of Wings present to correct it, and especially
should they do so when the motives of their
public men are so bitterly assailed as they
were by Mr.. Davis. But we don't see for our
life how Mr.. Davis can blame the Wings for
voting supplies when, if we understood him
Alright, the intention of part of his remarks
was to throw obloquy on the Wings for notvot

Don't Worry"

When Bulstrode Whitelocke was embark
ing as Cromwells envoy to Sweden, in 1868
he was much disturbed in mind as he rested
in Harwich on the preceding night, which
was very stormy, while he reflected on the
distracted state of the nation. 1t happened
that a confidential servant slept in an adjacent
bed, who, finding that his master could not
sleep, at length said, "Pray, sir, will you
give me leave to ask you question y Seer
tain]y." "Pray, sir, don't you think that
God governed the world very well before you
came into it ;" Undoubtedly" "And
pray sir, don't you think he will govern it
quite as well when you are gone out of it y
Certainly" "Then, sir, pray excuse me,
but don't you think you may trust him to
govern it quite as we'll as long as you live:"
TO this question Whitelocke had nothing to
reply; but turning himself about, soon fell
fast asleep till he was summoned to embark.
