The new administration organ at Washington, not

with the approval of course, OF General Taylor The

explicit understanding ON the subject The Wing must

This would seem to settle the question, if any there
be- as the original intent of the President elect and his
understanding with Messrs. But and Sargent The
issuing of the prospectus of the paper pursuant to
this explicit understanding leaves scarcely room for
doubt on this point.
But the idea that the Wing " must be extngushed.

Wing Consolation.

The wings are trying TO account for and excuse their
overwhelming defeat in Virginawhere their power has
fallen from ability 10 elect six members OF Congress to
that of eecng fraction of one of their number-n var
amusing ways The best is that given IN the
Boston Atlas from which il appears that the victory OF
the democrats is owing 10 the tact that the wings are Ce
ter supplied with umbrellas than their opponents This
is better even than the of wing defeat some years
ago in Connecticut, which was "sposhy weather.
Then it was feet, it is heads and the wings are
equally weak at both exremes. There are many sim
liar reasons given by the wings for their being used in
Virginia all partakng very largely Of that character
which we find in the question OF the ill.1sed general
would have happenedw The Atlas is almost as saga
cous as old Hardy in the Bellies Statagem who foresaw
that If one candidate for Parliament shouldn't have more
votes than another he wouldn't be elected These ex-
cuses may be useful in reconcing men to inevitable mis-
fortunes but can't say that we ever found them OF
much account in our own case. Last fall when beaten
in the presidential contest It was no consolation to US to
know that if thus and 80 had happened, we shouldn't
have been beaten. The difficulty was that It DID not
happen There was the rub. The wings had their turn
then--we have ours now.
The Atlas thinks unfair that while there is majority
of only $500 against the wings in Virginia, they should
have but one member OF Congress from that State 1t
gives eight of ten members of Congress to the wings
of Massachusetts, while there is majority against them
here of $4,000. Even the gentleman elected in another
district has heretofore acted with the wings and the more
prominent candidates the vacant districts are oon
wings The united opposition parties here, suppose oat
the lth district should finally go against the wnss, ~"
be represented in Congress by only two mempe,s' M
said parties numbering upwards OF n1, eo o This
eight wing members will represent only oo,vv; ms
we suppose the Atlas thinks the heIsnt Q, ia,lnese
which is the ordinary conclusion OF the pa'
10 saw of the blind wings.
