pery of the Union) to repudiate and scorn Tue |
movements" of these poor factionlsts,-anu
not only this, but to assert publicly his hearty
acquiescence in the nomination Of Gen. SCOTT,
and his determination to give him his cordla
support. Nothing short of this will no'o sa''s-
fly his Country friends, however it may be III
Wall and State Streets.
But we confess that we care very little about
ii, one way or the other. If Mr.. Webster chooses
to close his long and glorious career by pursu-
ing course that will draw down upon him the
execration of the Wing Party, by whose great
principles he has proessed, all his lie, to DC
governed, it is not for us to demonstrate, how
ever much we may lament. Mr.. Webster is
the guardian of his own good name and tame
but we can tell him and his most dcIudcd
"triends," that VINO PRISclrLEs are more
IT rongly fixed in the hearts Of the Wings OF the
| Union, than the name OF any human being VINO
ever lived or died We cannot yet believe that
| Daniel Webster, Whose name, with his own
consent and appreciation, was submitted TO the
late Wing National Convention, together with
those of Mr. Fillmore and Gen. Scott will not
take an early occasion to place himself right
before the American people by emphatcaI'y
repudiating every iactious movement OF
which he has been the victim. We may be
mistaken. We hope we are not, But II we
arc, we shall have word or Two more to say.
