The difference Between the Wings who sur.

What chance would The democratic party have Of 49,.

refused 10 go for General Pierce 10 ask rtais ous
10 answer II for The reply springs spontaneously 10
tongue-n such stale OF affairs the democracy uo.l
have chance al all. As we'll might an army sY.,,

Let ssuppose that Franklin Pierce was surrounded w
the enemies of the constitutions that he graoplrd !, A.

that he was in daily association with who like ca,
Johnston, OF Pennsylvania, saw a southern xep,lsm.,

there is not an enemy OF the Union no matter how yo
lent, from Garrison and Fred. Douglass down 10 N,
Greeley and to Mr. Tuck. who did not prefer his eleeo,
as they do that OF Gen. Scott How long is il 10 BE- .n,.
posed that the democrats would stand up in his suOo
Not day-not an hour All his own professions vo,,a
not save him. His past life would not protect him i.
matter how brayely he had acted in the ieh a. H..
boldly he had stood by national principles Hs .,,o.
tons oiM notorious public, and tanateai aboi.;oa;s

The present detection against Scott in the viii,
would be as nothing TO the democratic detection ae,n.,
Pierce under such circumstances
1t is because General Pierce occupies no unde6o.1 ;,
son on any great question that the contrast betwe
himself and General Scott is SO fatal 10 the latter
The strongest proof OF the wretchei and couuU i.
ences that surround General Scott is to be found in 4,
noble and eloquent whom these influences ,s,a
from his support. The strongest proof. on ,he ohs
hand. of the perfectly frank and fearless national au
OF General Pierce is to be found in the reuctan, bu, co
sant tributes paid 10 his sentiments and to his history b
many who have been and still are. among the wam,a
wings in the Union. The low and vulgar ialsehood.
which the friends OF General Scott invent, 10 damageGn
Pierce in the esteem and the confidence of all national men
have no more effect upon the latter or upon the truth o.
upon those whom these shameless expediens are l.b.
Gated to stagger, than would the rbad rawlings Of an n
sane inebriaed against the force Of history Of
is awakened for those who concoct these ridicucu,
iasshoods; and nothing bat pity for those who are T.
norant OF depraved enough 10 believe in them
The philosophy of General SCOTS position is, in br
as follows he hopes by the whig platform 10 satisfy
the South be hopes by his identity with the foes OF that
platform 10 The North But it follows, as ID,
night follows the day, that the dishonesty Of this game
must affect General Scott seriously on both sides o
while it cannot be denied that every abotonst p.i.n
Scott to Pierce, and while ii is apparent that M
Hale himself entertains the relation 10 the cand
dates, thousands Of men heretofore whi,r and aiD
wings, will turn from the hypocrisy or the frsM
which this picture presents, and will vote for Pierce
In the South the consequences, as we have seen ~
much more extended and unecuivocal than 10 The North
The wings who refuse to support Gen Scott are hs,ai
cal wings. Where has there ever been more decided
and undertaking whg than Hon. Daniel JeniIer,
Maryland' Where is there now a man who is NOR
sincerely attached TO the whg party than Meredith
Gentry These are fair types Of large Glass; who n
lucanily admit the unwouhness of Gen. SCOTS poi
ton, and reluctantly declare that they cannot support
him and retain their own honor
The difference between these eminent, gentlemen nd
those wings OF the South who support Scot, n tbs
The entire whs party had full warning OF Gen Scar
position long before his nomination. They saw Na
knew his conhiants and his controllers and may s.,y
be said that every southern whg press and every sah
ern whg politician, with or two exceptions d.
nounced General Scott in advance as unworthy OF con-
6dence or declared ha, they would oppose him uass
cut himself loose from such political lepers Johnston,
Seward, ley, and Tuck, Now the qaeslion IS
which is the consistent Of the Of southern
who oppose Scot, or those who support
Scott } We will answer this question by stating tn
grounds they respectively occupy. Those who oppo9
Scott believe tha, if il right to object TO him for hn
notorious abolition associations before he was nominated
it follows, irresistible conclusion, that is mor
important to oppose him after his nomination, especially
as he nominated by these abolition associations, Md
as they still surround him Those who support Scot .
admit that they objected to him and to his association
before his nomination, but they show by their acts thai
these associations have been forgotten and forgiven nos
that he has been nominated by abolition influences In
opponents OF Scott have therefore. the impregnsbk .
ground OF principle and OF consistency to stand upon
and the friends OF Scott the doubfa consolation thai
they have yielded everything 10 abolition domination
even to their own sel-respec and have broken thsH
voluntary and solemn pledges, made in advance before
the whole county.
