very able WING Cabnet-a Cabinet entirely
devoted to Wing principles, measures and pol
ICY, IN the administration of the Government.
Amonga large portion of the Wings of New
England, we are sorry to be obliged to say, the
appointment of Mr. WEBSTER will be looked
| upon with certain distrust and regret But
tins foeiing ha exclusive reference to the course
pursued by that gentleman in regard to the
great subject that has thus far occupied the at
tentlon of Congress the Omnibus Bill To
his curse in reference to this bill, our readers
well know, we have been, and are wholly op-
posed We infinitely preferred, and prefer, the
wise and patriotic plan of adjustment marked
out by the lamentcd President TAYLOR And
this is the very head and front of our complaint
against Mr. WEBSTER no more. Beyond this,
we look upon him, as we always have, as by
far the ablcst and soundest Statesman and D-
plomatist in the world. There is no stint to our
veneration for the extraordinary abilities of
DANIEL WEBSTER. We have opposed his
views in regard to the famous Compromise of
Mr.. Foote, and we hold them in the sane disqp-
probation now; but every iot and title of his
political principles and opinions. aside from Thu,
we unhcsitatngly approve.
And now then, what is to be done. to unite
the Wing Party of the Union in cordial support
OF the Administration of President FILLMORE !?
