General pierce and the Wing Press OF the
Nurlh.

We have already adyered TO the inconsistent charges
urged against the democratic candidate by the whg press
Of the North and the South. II depends altogether upon
the latitude in which the paper printed, whether in.
vokes opposition TO General Pierce with the plea that he
is proslayery bunker" higher-law abolitionis
The Richmond Wing parades the testimony OF Foss us
Fogg conclusive evidence that General Pierce inm
zeal the institutions aud rights of the South while the
Syracuse Journal denounces him for his subservency
slavery. Now OF these jealous supporters OF Scott
speaks falsely General Pierce cannot be both an abo-
tionis and pro- slavery bunker Ii is true that in s4s
the wings attributed to their candidate conflicting opn

Janus faced creed for General Pierce He stand
upon opposite sides of the globe al and the same
time, He en,erains now, and. indeed. has enter
aned but opinion in respect TO antsayery agita

journals somebody be cheated" unless The people
should adopt the wise plan OF believing neither.
In charging General Pierce with disposition and
determination TO secure TO the South, in the
event of his election. the full and undsturbed
enjoyment of its constitutional rights. the Scott

the hypocrisy. On the other hand the Syracuse
Journal is its Professions The abolition agi
ators of the North know full well that General Pierce
is not the to serve their purposes They fear him
and they hate him They know him to be the firm friend
OF the constitution and the Union and the determined foe
of sectional agitation. Hence their opposition TO his
election.
