time generally aware THAT 'hc iiio'' VI"
prirciple mercenary and mendacious
journal ever published in this City, and
which has attained a large circulation
through the favor it has earned and
achieved in every haunt of debauchery and
deprayiry not only in our City but through
out the country, is thoroughly devoted to
the election of Pierce and King. That its
natural rancor and recklessness have been
stimulated by money in hand or the prom
Use of office and Jobs in case of Pierce's
election, we do not doubt, though the evil
dence of the fact is Of course confined 10
the contracting parties. But its natural
instincts and sympathies, its Obsequious
devotion TO Foreign interests as against the
development of American Industry, In
connection with the party afinities OF the
great majority of the keepers of brothels,
gambling houses and low groggeries where
from it derives the great bulk of its patron
age and consequence, would of course in-
cline it strongly TO the course 1t is now
pursuing. To defame and dispar-
age such a man as Winfield Scott
is its congenial work to hate and
belle the Wing party is the inevitable
prompting Of its groyelins, obscene nature
and lis vicious aptitudes and associations;
to promote the interest of Foreign Manu-
fec ures and Shippers at the expense of
American Labor, is Il work which has been
to il labor of love and of lucre for ears.
We DO not object to its being heartily and
unscrupulousy Loco Foco, for 1t could not,
with Justice to its own tastes and appetltes,
be anything else; but we do object to its
deceitful piratical pretensions of neutral
ity. There is not one principle of the
Loco FOco party which it does not hold
and advocate there is no purpose, no i'm
pulse of the Wings which it does not de-
fame and it rarely or never speaks we'll
of v big tatesman until he is dying or
dead, unless it has reason to believe that
he has been seduced from his integrity and
may now be used to distract and defeat his
own party. We protest, therefore, not
against its habitual falsehood, which Is
chronic and inveterate, nor to its studied
defamation of everything Wing and lauda-
ton of everything Loco Foco, since that is
in accordance with its instincts and ten
denotes, but to It's hypocrite's cloak of in
dependence and non-partisanship, when
there is not in all this nation an Editor
who more intensely and virulently hates
Gen. Scott and the cause whereof he is
the standard-bearer than does that same
Satanic Press.
Its treatment of two meetings held in
our City last week is a fair specimen of
It's habitual conduct. That of the Opposi-
ton was held on Thursday evening, one
of the brightest and fairest nights of the
season, with Gen. Cass IA great favorite
in our City,) Senator Douglas, and half a
cozen Members Of Congress and other
popular speakers to address it, letters from
Van Buren,, Buchanan, Dorr, &C., show.
ing great effort and laborious preparation.
The Wing Meeting was held on Friday
evening, amid shower after shower of rain,
and with only one speaker from abroad
a most gallant and able one indeed-to
address 1t. That 1t was not very large
meeting, is true, but more enthusiastic
and eratifed assemblage has rarely been
convened in our City, and the procession
at its close which escorted Mr.. Stanly
over mile through pouring rain and
flooded streets to the Astor House is one
evidence of its spirit. Yet this meeting
Is distorted by the Satanic Press into an
evidence that the Wigs are giving up
the contest! The great point aimed at by
the bevy of lawyer. Generals who brought
out Gen. Pierce as a candidate is to fright
en- the Wings into fainting at the outset of
the battle. If they can only accomplish
that, they reckon on an easy victory, and
to this point their Satanic implement is
continually devoted. Wings of YER
MONT you hear this bullying cry that the
Wings give up the contest. Answer it at
the polls To Morrow
