baS Iow il is alleged that there are sectlonallsts

III u.s. a. freesoiI Wings. Alas this Pretext is moi
w. nl,usible The Frees0iIers and the .d00htto'stS

IN snts and select tie cGndidaEes9 lie Wing party;

Infringing affection for, and Utgtiant st'Gr0'GnSnp

is that sectionalism is the resistless rule In the
Wig party; whilst it is the marked and Po"eflesS
vce6on in the Democratic party. Does Il require

uiucbIy. Every candidate now named 6y the wing

PPa,sd 70 ayow national sentments-no matter now

the other hand, every candidate named tor the Demo
crs,ic Presidential nomination, no matter no" many
~ how few his chances are, has, without exception
iuparlv attested his attachment to the ooloes! ma
.;onaI sentiments, including every guarantee OF the
National Constitution. How utterly these great facts
oveTwheIm the shallow fppancies OF the washington
Republic, in its forcibly feeble attempts to detract
from the organic nationality of the Democracy OF TINS
country, by quoting instances of individual derelc
lions from the faith for which we have suffered defeat
and which we will cling to as long as we have
country to love- These individual instances, like the
desertion from Religion itself, only serve more firmly
to attach to our political creed the great mass who
have felt its saving and salutary Influences and have
traced It's eonquering and triumphant career.
Such is the contrast suggested by the recent de-
velopments at Washington-by the action OF the
Wing Caucus, and by the disclosures in open Con-
gress, of the Whig leaders. Whatever may be the
future action of those who have contributed by their
confessions TO establish the dangerous design OF the
leaders in the Scott movement-the people are fore
,parnsd in season. The proof has been opportunity
and amply furnished and all who may read. Let
the South pause and ponder upon the lesson which it
commends especially to that section of the country.
