Wings as-NONE!-E1
SEvENTY-rfiREE northern wings (being the WHOLE Of
them) and TWENTY-FIVE northern democrats (beng not
HALF OF them) voted against the south.
The contrast is before the southern people for their in
spechon: We charge the southern wings with an alii-
ance, offensive and defensive, with party at the north
which moves in against the "rghts honor Jude
SauannaA Republican, of the south. We charge the
pie and patriotism" (vde Sauannah Republican, We
charge that this deadly blow southern rights and in
erests (uide Sarannah Republican, has been evelled
by wing hand We charge that it has been .propelled
by (whg) aid,' (uide Savannah Rep We charge tina,
The wing party has been Weighed and found vanting"
(ulde the same perf,nacious paper.)
We claim that majority OF the northern democrats are
with us. That their love for the south and the Union
bears the ratio to that of the northern wings OF TWENTY
SEVEN to o. 80 That their opposition to the
south is that of the wings the proportion of
rYTwo to 90 sEvENTYTHREE. 30 That they have
again to the rescue saved the Union and protected
1.-The rights and honor of the south from the combined
attacks of mad fanaticsn and folly" (uide the paper
aforesaid, which has hitherto kicked, now kicking,
and in all human probability, for all time to come, will
continue to kick against the prcks.)
We shall return to this subject again, present pur
pose simply being TO give the facts to the people, and
put our next-door neghbors in limbo.
