o,,e. in a while a Wing editor is. brought
/. knowledge OF the truth, and what is much
..,e remarkable, to a frank and manly con-
lin. Such ia the following from the Cham

"a II TO the New England Wings as a gem
. h,Okness, such as they seldom or never

a The Wing parry at the South, as a party, is
.,desd as a mackerel. Blythe pre- sldential cleo
i'm il will be difficult to find individual speci'
SSns Of that species Of the great family OF polIti-
TTbe reason Of this extinction is obvious. The
,.oeral rule Of Wing affinity, North, is ADOLF
sS~uARp. The exceptionsare barely sufficient
.s.i,blisb the rule. We do not know why this
10: but The TACT is as apparent as the lace OF
M heavens Southern men, therefore, cannot
ioSoef act with the national Wing party. We
i"lSe South never had any immediate interest in
H. establishment of the protective system; but
airing 10 good faith to our northern allies, tile
sslIetn Wing patty tied itself to 40 unpopular
i,ue and tell with it. The return which we
a,e. received for this is a general alliance Of
Drl6em whiggery with abolitiunism, or much the
.ane Thing, tEee.soilism:
The nofihern democracy, as a general rule, are
,Oapd On the slavery question. II must be con.
e.ed that the demOcratic rule of CONSTITUTIONS
nustruction tavors the South, and although This
d bitter concession TO our Wing pride, truth,
eanSOr, mauIiness, all compel its u%ttetance.
The result otthis~ condition of public sentiment
North and South, will be apparent before the next
RESIDENTIAL election. The Union Wings of Sc.
