schemes by its own party, reneSs its ridiculous
strain of the day before-lt says:
1--WE Yesterday gave The Democracy more
cftdn than they were entitled 10. They did not
hesitate u proser,be the late Speaker, Mr.. Stto-
n-r. and erc; man Of their own in The person
OF Col. hupsius Of P"whatan. Very we'll, gen.

Tae Wings deserve all the odium Of his pro-
scription," il j, oe So They did not nominate or
voc Tor Mr. Sroiaer, and The frs woe for Col.
Hopk rs was The Whis vote Of Mr.. FinneY oil
Accomac 10 what miserable pretex, does
lhe Wing resort, in jusiiying he hoped-ior appli-
cation OF the euiloine 10 the poor Federal office
holders by inc incoming no-pa!ty "adminisra
ton
The Wing itself is guilty OF prescription.
Ii proscrhes one OF its own party Mr.. Bous, The
Wing representative in Congress. That paper
makes var upon NJ Bots, as follows:
the Enquirer, having become the only Wig
paptr in Richmond, il is highly proper that II
,nuuId be Inc organ OF the only Whig LEFT, and
,ha, i. should rejoice with an exceeding great Joy
al all his lrumphs. When il shall have given
shall make such extracts as may b. OF interest 10
our readers.
In he meantime, regard ng this movement as
the FIRST overt demonstration asaius the admins
tra'ion al General Taylor, We deem II not aml>s

la due iine, The great body ui the Wings 81
Richmond will heartily cooperate with their
brethren of Inc counties in selecting gentleman
TO represent them in Congress, VINO will respect
their wishes and devoie himself Loyalty to the ad-
vance men; OF their principles"
The Enquirer is not che organ" of Mr.. Bolts
or Of any other man or faclon-but endeavors
10 present 10 its readers an inklng OF the amusing
scenes which daily occur in the two divisions OF
the Wing patty. Ii WAS Tor thai reason that we
ske,ched the splendid Torchligh; Taylor Process
sion, and now endeavor to reproduce some OF The
scenes a, the Bots Banquet. If Wings cil
make themselves ridiculous, as ne Wing some
time since said they did, il is no, our fault-bu'
we have right 10 Gull amusement for our read
ers General politics being rather dull al present,
we must look Tor interest t. local and personal
politics alone. We give sketch Of Mr.. Bolls'
speech, which has been kindly furnished 10 US =
This and me Wings Bull, given above, will
show the delicious state OF Spontaneous combus-
lion" in the Wing ranks here.
The proceedings will show, that yesterday
Judge Scott sent 10 The House long document,
in which, Tor constitutional and other reasons, he
declines to act as member OF The Special Court
of Appeals which IS formed OF the Judges oil the
General Court. Ii is deeply TO be regretted thai
any circumstance should have occurred 10 ihwar'
his, the only practicable plan, as the Legislature
deliberately decided, for relieving The pressure OF
business in The Court Of Appeals The over.
loaded docket Of the Court of Appeals is griev-
| auce oppressive 10 suitors and unfortunate Tor
the good name OF the STATE; and we had trusted
that the remedy SO long postponed would be
promptly carried into effec, and confer speedy
beuef, upon the public. With due respect 10 all
parties we would suggest, as Judge Scot, is pre-
vented by scrupes from Jscharging the addi-
tional services that The Legislature at once pass
law authorizing and requiring The next oldest
Judge TO occupy The place assigned 10 him on The
Special Court OF Appeals.
