he course Of the present Administra ton
appears to meet viii as little from the inde-
pendent portion of the Wing press it does
from the derneeratic party. AS an evidence
We give he following article from the Phila-
delphia Sun, and we could give many more
from leading whig prints throughout the whole
Union. but think this viii suffice. These
threatenings are becoming quite frequent Of
late. and the treason breathed in the following
article is similar to those of great nu mbef
of other papers. and tells conclusively OF the
disaffection pervadng the wing ranks.
CONNECTICUT AND VIRGINIA.-We do
not wonder at the Joy which is exhibited
by the Washington Union at the result of
the election in Virginia, and we are almost
led to sympathize in that JOY. But the
Union falsifes the cause ofsuch disastrous
results, by ascribing them to the system of
removals going on at Washington-falsi-
fies and jeers at the namby -pamby manner
of conducting an administration.
Look at Virginia. Why should the
last falls supporters of General Taylor
have worked this spring for Taylor men,
bers of Congress! Because a locofoco
naval agent was appointed at Norfolk
certainly not! Because locofoco post
master was retained al Richmond! Hard
/ ly good enough cause! Because generally
the opponents of Gen. Taylor have been
allowed to retain every Office in the State?
Who believes such folly! We believe
firmly that if justice-simple justice-had
been done by Gen. Taylor's friends In
| Connecticut and Virginia, we should have
/ had four Congressman from the former,
and at least nine from the latter. Now,
under the milk-and-water policy, we have
perhaps two. Only one, sir, In all pro-
liability And what is past is
but foretaste of disasters to come. Ii
| there were congressional elections to be
| held In Pennsylvania next fall. we could
not carry more than three districts in the
State, and we shall be beaten 40, 900 on
the canal commissioners ticket, and have
a majority of thirty against us In the low
er house of the legislature, if the same stu-
pid, in,beciLe, and treacherous policy as
pursued. We are no fawning sycophant
around the footstool of power, even when
a man we respect so much as we do Gen.
Taylor occupies it. We were, and are,
willing to Judge his administration by It's
acts; and we say, plainly, that its first
/ fruits are nothing but tares, and crop of
weeds. Let the field be aceH prm1ed, and
all ercrescences renaoued for the future,
or oce do not aUaSte our time, nor urge
our friends to sacrifice their means and
energies to support an aoagrafsfm and
UGscihating policy.
