We do not know how more appropriately than BY
mi. head 10 Introduce 10 our readers the following
veIl-timed and stirring Appeal TO the Wings Of the
United States, by The editors Of the New York EI-
press themselves among the active in the front
rank Of our political friends:
nThe whigs Of the United States are now 80 well
Grodset, and We may add aor 50 well omitted, that
n seems hardly necessary 10 roll thr drum any longer
rot ac,oa and concord, though indisPensably neces
sary for success are yet not half enough Of what Is
vanted Action must be turned stosuseful account.
There mus be energy, enthasi4slal. watchfulness,
and, above all organization.
Islhe Wing party everywhere organized That
Il the question. No is the answer, we venture TO
SAP, In most quarters; but no mus be the answer no
longer for where there Is reorganization there is
certainty Of success Regulars are as important in
politics - in war and discipline is necessary for
success at The ballot box in the field. Orations,
addresses resolutions speeches, &C., are allimport
aat but not much more important than the band Of
music in an army. The bugle inspires, the fife =
rouses, the drum wakes up; the band then makes
even towards 5raye but it IS the silent host moving
shoulder to shoulder step by STEP that does the work
otalions, &C., are thus all well enough, nay, very
necessary but the true captain, in coming great
day, must know his men, and where to find them
Organization and discipline ensure him success, no
matter what the host atraycd agains. him. he
