The Richmond (Va.) Wing, in an article on
the origin and names Of existing parties, dates the
present Wing party from 1852, and says:
"The name was then gven TO it by Mr.. Cal
houn, who at first belonged to it, and said that as
it acted on the same principles those OF the
Revolution, and was opposed TO Executive tyran- :
ny, it could have name so BIT as that old RevO-
Iutionary one o: Whig."
This is a mistake. Mr.. Calhoun did not org-
nate the name of Wing. as applied to the party,
and seldom used it. The remarks referred TO in
the Richmond paper were made in the year 1884,
adopted throughout the country. In the debate
on the Presidents protest, Mr.. Calhoun alluded
to the fact of "the revival OF the party names OF
the Revolution, after they had so long slumbered
as not without a meaning" Giving sketch Of
the distinction of Wing and Tory, in former times,
he adds l.
II have not contributed to their introduction,
nor am l desrous Of seeing them applied; but l
must say to those who have intended, that they
should not be; that nothing but their reversing
their course can prevent their application"
The credit Of first suggesting the name as a
party designation lies, we believe, between COL
Webb of the N. Y. Courier and Enquirer, and
the late Philip Hone, of New York. 1t hrst made
