of Gen. Pierce is verdict of the people against Sew

him. Besides, he is in bad humor. The cold

the black cloud of despair, he exclaims:

Nj Rrel Parties.

The Baltimore Republican and Argus notices
our denunciations Of mongrel parties and side
issues, and, with some lack of sagacity or
candor, infcrs that the Wings are not to be con-
sidered Union or Compromise men" The great
body of the Wings are Union and Compromise
men, irrespective of Wing organization; but as
the Union and Compromise measures were con-
summated irrespective of party lines, and as they
are consummated and established, we are opposed
to The revival of that issue to blend it as an ele-
ment Of contention in either party.
The Argus does injustice to its own party The
corpse, of the resurrected Compromise quarrel will
be carried in its shroud into the Democratic con-
yention at Baltimore on the first of June, and
there will at once arise almost the entire dclepa-
ton Of the North and Northwest, who will declare
that unless it is removed their States are lost to
the Democratic party. We give this assurance
upon well-grounded information, and our friends
of the Argus may believe it or not rs they think

The sentiments Of every member of the Wing
party, including their candidate, may, so far as
we care; be revealed trumpet-tongued to the
world. We would have no man suppress the
true sentiments of his heart on this or any other
question but we do object to political conven-
