The Wings are united to q man, at work shoulder

Washington whtr Club.

AT the regular weekly meeting of this Club
last night in their hall on Louisiana avenue, not
withstanding the showery weather, there was
very fair attendance of the membership, and the
various resolutions, motions, &C., were proposed
discussed, and disposed of in business like man
ner.
In the course of the evening z. COLLINS LEE,
esq, of Baltimore, entered the hall, and took
seat in the midst of the crowd, but he had been
observed by the many who knew him, and the
welkin rang with their hearty greetings. The
PRESIDENT, w. Lenox, esq, invited Mr.. Lee upon
the rostrum where he responded to the call of
the Club in happy and telling speech of forty
or fifty minutes length, reviewing many of the
exciting topics of the day in mastery manner
When speaking of the charge made upon him in
the Union yesterday, and which is responded to
IN the letter we quote from that paper of to-day,
he took occasion to dwell briefly upon the char
acter and services Of the great Statesman of
the North, whose life had been devoted to the
support of the principles of the Wing party, and
whom the speaker had ever looked to with admit
ration and reverence /" Is it possible" he asked,
" that that ilustrious man can ever pale the
brightness and beauty Of his fame by sacrificing
to any impelling motive the consistency of his
towering and glorious career? No-never! But,
gentlemen, were it possible that even he, the
greatest of the champions of our cause, could
forget his own exalted fame, and, proving faith
less to the pledges of his life desert us in the
hour in which every soldier in our cause is need
ed, should disown, denounce, and execrate him.
and hurl the heartfelt anathema upon his name |!
No man, from the highest to the lowest, though
he had twinned with me- both at a BIRTH should
escape the maledictions of my heart, prompted
as they would be by every vital spark of patriot
ism within it! But, gentlemen, depend upon it,
he who now sits almost within hearing of my
| voice, has spoken no word in disparagement of
the cause for which we are battling, AND NEVER
WILL. He will be found, gentlemen, as ever,
true to the constitution of his country, and the
Wing party by whose aid he has SO long m ain
aimed and defended that sacred instr ment."
AT the conclusion of Mr.. Lees speech, a vote
of thanks was awarded him by reclamation, &C
