We have no disposition 10 do any man an injus-
ticc We therefore state. stated by himself that
the editor of the Charlottesville RepubIican 10
STAKEHOLDER, and the fact that he was born at the
North is no just cause for suspectng him Of inf
deity to Southern institutions.
But when he undertook to speak Of oar "lately
professcd zea for the South, he must permit US to
say that he transcribed the limits of propriety and
justice. We have never been in a position TO rem
der Il necessary for to make, either late early
any profession of zeal for the South We have never
like the Enquirer, expressed an adherence Of
the institution of slavery. We have never, like
General CAss, prayed for its abolition every where
We have ever entertained but one opinion on the
subject-and that is, that far the blacks them
selves concerned, it is the best system of servi-
tude that exists in the word-that it's existence is
guaranteed by the Federal Constitutions that,
except the people among whom it exists, no power
on earth has any right to interfere with il.
But there in the paragraph in the Republi-
can, on which we commented alusion to that
same calumnious insinuation, which we have met
with frequently during the last few years in the
Locofoco papers, to wit that the Wings of vir-
ginia were not sound on this question. We stig-
matize this as calumnious insinuation, for such
il il. At a moderate calculation, the Wings oil
Virginia own two thirds Of all the negroes in the
State. The Wing party is largely in the ascend
ant in Virginia, east of the mountains, where the
larger proportion of the black population are to be
found. And yet for years they have been traduccd
by the demagogues of the Locofoco party as being
the allies Of the Abotionists--those demagoguei
! themselves, in nine out Of ten, not owning
Negroes toe-nail.
1t tries ones patience TO hear such imputations
from such quarters. And, what is more, when such
men thrust themselves forward as the exclusive
champions Of the South, people, who have real in
terest at stake, have right TO indulge suspicious
i and scrutnize their actions closely. Their mer,
say so, that southern convention or dissolution
Of the Union is the only salvation for the South
cannot be taken for gospel. II is nothing to then

zeal, they can induce the people to entrust then
with lucrative Offices
1t is a very remarkable fact, that the larges
slave owners, not only in Virginia, but in all tn,
South, are they who advocate the least violent inca
sures. They ought to know their interests as wei
as their officious friends. They know that til,
Union, as long as it is preserved in the spirit il
which it was formed, is effectual protection Il

the violent expedients of the demagogues, which
tend to endanger the Union. It's their determine

we are quite certain That the wing
press the country over, and its letter
writers from this city, undervalue the po-
sition of General FoorE, and perhaps un-
derrate his powers and capacity for the
duties of that position. He is the osten-
sible and the real leader of the Opposition
in the Senate. This is undeniable. And,
for all the purposes of our observations, it
is immaterial whether that post of distinc-
ton has been conferred upon him by the
unanimous voice of the party, or he has
constituted himself the generalissimo,
prompted by consciousness of his superior
abilities for the station. The ready &C
quiescence of the majority in his leader
ship furnishes conclusive evidence of their
appreciation of his skill, prudence and
wisdom. He has superseded all the ex-
pericnced Democratic statesmen in the
Senate, and stands forth the great cham
pion and captain Of the Democracy, act
ing on all occasions as though there had
been devolved upon him the regulation
and control Of the whole legislation of the
body. He is Eclipse, and the rest are
nowhere. The great lights that were won't
to illumine that side Of the chamber are
paled before the refulgence of this
new sun. Messrs. CALHOUN, BENTON,
CAss, Sc, are secondary and really in
considerable men in comparison with
General FooTE; and, as for DICKINSON,
DOUGLAS, HUNTER, and that class gener-
ally, why they are of no account in the
estimate. In fighting the battle, General
FooTE disdains aid, and seeks no sympa-
thy. He stands there, another Amadis
de Gaul, defying all enemies, relying on
the might of his strong right arm. Never
wa. there so vigilant commander-never
man so ready at every description of war,
offensive and defensive. He yields his
weapon with equal grace, facility, and eff
feet Like the Irishman who went into
fight with the determination TO hit
every head he saw exposed, General
FooTE lays about him with so much We
hemence, that his own troops sometimes
feel the vigor Of his blows; but this is quite
likely the effect of calculation, and intend
ed to enforce more perfect discipline in
his own ranks. Such being the position
Of General FooTE, and such his relations
TO the majority Of the Senate, it is neither
wise nor just TO disparage his talents, or
misrepresent his importance in that body.
The application Of opprobrious epithets and
terms Of reproach generally TO a man
holding this position in the Senate, is in
bad taste, and the effect is necessarily in
furious TO the Wing cause.
