ssThe Scenes OF IS41 are ab0ut being
Iee-enacted.'
WASHINGTON, April 81, 1646.
Reader you will find the words of my text record
ed in letter addressed TO the wings of Virginia,
what few there are, by a man who, it is scarcely
worth while for TO say, is WING member of Con-
gress from that State and bears the and title of
Hon. John N. Bolts So sincerely so thank him for
the confession that haste record in the columns
of newspaper that will be particular to preserve il
for future and reference, instead Of lending itself
to its suppression, and thereby keeping from the
public eye How often do witnesses in COURT in their
zeal to give their testimony peculiar in favor
OF OF the PARTIES and expressions and remarks
too that they little dream will prove fatal to the
object they aiming to effect, drop unguard
ed word that subsequently comes up in judgement
against them, and that when they least expect IT,
Such is the predicament of Mr.. Bolts federalis
OF the old school, he is burthened with sys
tenn that revots most manifestly at Taylorlsm, en-
affection that prevails most feauly his section of
the whig vineyard. He addressed letter some
months ago, of great length and severity animadvert-
ing upon the conduct of those, in Washington and
elsewhere, who were lending their names and infu
to the proposition and project of making Gener
al Taylor the 0hg candidate for the Presidency and
certifying him to the country at the same time
no-Party-nan, and his consequently peculiar fitness
to be their candidate this letter. four other
whig members frvm Virginia replied, with good
deal of pungency and retaliation: of these four
was Mr.. Pendleton man whose moral character
an entire stranger TO, and which cannot there
fore describe; but have read his speeches ana pub
lished letters, since he has been in Congress- at
tentvely that have become perfectly familiar with
him a politician: and l must say that he is
the most perfect model of 4 political black leg,
tant. The success of his party principles prn
cipes seems to be his entire aim and end TO accom-
plish which every other consideration must be made
secondary. Mr.. Bolts is out with reoinder TO this let

deton Co.. and from this rejonder Gull the sentence
to which invite your particular attention Itspeaks
volume. What more unequlvocal and unmsiakable
warning does the democracy of country need to sat
isfy them of what will be the result of whg triumph
the presidential election, than that "lhe scenes
of lS4l about being re-enactedl And this time
ly notice given too, as it is, by man who stands in
the whig council house, second perhaps to none, or,
If second at all, only to Mr.. Clay. You remember
doubtless what the character of those scenes were!
You remember, do you not, when whig Senator
from South Carolina-Mr. Preston-said in a SEN
atoria speech that so help him God. ''under a wing
administration, prescription itself must be proscrb-
ed,' and in twenty minutes turned around and voted
in favor of resolution to dismiss Blair e. Rives from
the Office of Printer to the Senate, without any
charge whatever against them, that they

procession in Petersbulgh, Va. in which the Hon.
Thomas Ewing of Ohio, was the distinguished guest,
and in which a banner borne bearing the inscrip-
ton mo bank of the United States 20 You remem-
Der, do you not, that address put forth by the wing
central Committee of Virginia. in which it was pro-
nounced base libel upon the wing party, to say that
they were in favor of restoration of a protective
tariff; that they stood, through good report and
through evil report, by the compromise act of 1888
You remember, do you not, the prlncey pageant in
Boston, where the identical party displayed
upon a banner Of oriental richness, Zip, Tye and

poor men know, until after the election, how they
loved them that they inscribed upon of their ban
ners at Baltimore. "we stoop to conquer!" You
member, do you not that upon another of the Boston
banners was-inscribed on the one side "Van Burens
policy, l21 day and bean SOUP" and upon the
other side swing policy, two dollars day and
beef" You remember do you not, how bank officers,
teachers of youth, professors of religion lawyers,
doctors, and preachers of the gospel-men who so
often boased that In their party existed all the learn
ing and all the decency-were to be found and, their
young children with them too ogcabin orgies and
carousas; in Wagon, a-straddle of whiskey bar

/ ask you again, reader if you do not remember
these "sceneS of 1S4l!" Well they are all ''about
being re-endcted." do not ask you to take my word

are to do the acts. If you are a democrat, have
but two words more. and they are words of admoni-
