MIR. WEBsTER,s COURSE.

The Boston Courier, in a leader which
ought not to have been written, save on
due advisement and authority, indicates
that Mr.. Webster will do nothing to pro-
mote Gen. SCOTS election. He will con-
tinue Wing in principle, but viii do moth
ing (this time at least) for the election of
Wing President and the consequent con-
tinuance of Wing Administration. This
manifesto does not intimate that Gen.
Scott is not an honest, capable, deserving
man, nor that he is not a sound consistent,
lifelong Wing. l. does not even intimate
that he is opposed to the Compromise; but
it insists that the anti Compromise wing
of the Wing party triumphed in his nomi-
nation, and that the platform is bubble
and the candidate the main point. The
Seward Wings here carried their candi-
date-they are at head of the heap-and
Mr.. Webster will not follow them. And
besides, the Contention had no business to
nominate any body but Mr.. Webster-hence
it is clear that the nomination of Gen. Scott
is a usurpation, fraud, and ought not
to be supported. Hear TIE Courier:
awe think, moreover that 1t Is quite time for tho
peope Of ibis country 10 look at the Ia which
Mr. Webster has been treated by the Wing parEy for
the last twelve or heen years. This retrospscE should
