Srp rRE ARTICLE from correspondent with rel
.rence to the editorial of the Times, on Monday.
We had not designed adyerting to that article, as
we were content to define our own position, and
leave our neighbor 10 take care OF himself
We fully agree, however, with our cor'e spondeni
in the conclusion that the article is most unfor-
tunate one, AMI does not, and should not meet
with the approval of the Wings Of this city OF vi
cinity. What are the views of our neighbors OF
the Times upon this or any other question, 1t does
not behooye us to enquire, he has an indisputa-
BILE right to his own opinions, but when he sees
proper to give utterance through his paper, to
opinions so at van unce in cur judgement with the
sentiments of our party and citizens, SO repug-
nant to the rights and the interests Of Virginia, and
SO suicidal to the interests of city, it is no less
due to ourselves than to fellow citizens, to
nress srayely as we do, our dissent "toto cello"
from his erroneous expression of sentiments upon
this subject, and must be allowed to express our
convictions that the sentiments of that article will
notbe endorsed by any portion of our citizens

gems. Still, the Times and the Argus have the
night to pursue their OWE incnatons upon these sub
jects and while regard the article of the Times
most unfortunate and improper, and as placing
the Wing party of our city IN false position, we,
vertheless, must express our convichon thatt ne
notice of the Argus superadds to the improperly of
the lrticle of the Times. most MUST and iliber
al effort to identify the Wing party with princi-
Piles foreign TO its feelings and impulses, as they
are suicidal to the rights and interests of Virginia.
Our position is clear upon this subject. We are
Virginians, and eIpect to be ever such, and we un
hesatingly say, that if the endorsement of the Flu
gitive Slave Law caused our late defeat, then we
glory in that defeat, and sincerely as we are at

the South, Gan idea which we do not for mo-

dy and will,ngto fraternise with that party, no
matter what may be its name which takes its stand
upon the constitution, ready to prevent aggression
on the one hand, and protect the rights of the peo-

we mean to advocate and uphold, with all the
feeble powers we possess, and in the defence of
which. we ready to go with him who goes the
farthest under the protecting folds of the Federal
Constitution.
