We refer our readers to a characteristic and important
letter from the Hon. John M Bolts, Of Virginia, which
we copy from the Richmond Enquirer. and which vii
be found in another column II il an interesting sfe
in many points Of view. Il Is interesting from the fec
that Mr. Bolts Is well known to be warm friend 10 MI
Clay, and enthusiastically devoted to the political fortunes
Of that distinguished gentleman and therefore il may
considered as imbodyng the real state Of feeling sria
ing among the Clay branch Of the wing party. Besides
il may also be taken very good evidence Of the resent
ments and rancor which Turk in the ranks Of the wig
party and which win long break out in bitter an
mplacable hostility among the different clquss and
clans Of the party.
We have always been Of the opinion, and have many
times remarked, that the election Of Gen. Taylor would
result in the total disorganzaion and dissolution Of S
whig party. The developments Of Mr. Botts's letter
to confirm our opinion. We have long known Mr.k'
and must give him the credit Of being earnest and On
compromising whig, whose ardent devotion to his PHn
cipes has mpelled him to wage unreleniing war upon
democracy His ability and persevering energy will en-
able him to make his blows felt by the factonists and
inirguers Of his party.
