The Whir seems alarmed the prospects in this "Gora
tar of Whigaery" A few days since, thorough "hig
through the Enquirer urged the policy OF the wings sup

rouncations as the one furnished by Southern wing

strongly suspect that he is disappointed asptan! so
Ia,ive honus Or some judciously Instructed iend; we
trust that tie Wings Of Richmond are not to DC sued o

The Wing utterly mistakes the identity of the writer, VINO
yoluntar presented his views through the Enquirer. he
is thorough whg and with his pen, and his influence,
WARMLY sustained the election Of Mr. Bolts He gave good
for his leave it to him TO de-
tend himself and those agreeing with him, against Inc
coarse charge of pcrpetrating ''absurdiries"
P S. Since writing the above, we have received the ol-
lowing which shows tina, "Soulhcrn Whig cannot stand
the FIRE of the Wing but has craw6shed from his absudi-
ties" As he ublooded Whg is not for us 10 account
fore his advise him hereafter TO look be-
fore he leaps and not place himself in such an altitude as he
now exhibits. The Democracy of the City took their
ground on principle with regard 10 the bearing OF their op
oouents They mean fight the battle fairly and honestly
