The daily union. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1845-1857, 1853-08-17

We have frequently alluded Of late to the apparent
want OF hsrmonyn the ranks Of the New York democ-
racy and TO The unfortunate effect which The ap-
peaance OF such State OF things tends TO produce among
our friends in other sections OF the country The wing
journals. of course. magnifying and exung over
these difficulties The New York Courier and Enquirer
says
" Ia IL quite apparent thar the national aud ays
democrats they consider themselves. are about

We can give but small credit to any such wing statement

York shall see ct 10 adopt They will unqresonably

not perceive how any man--whether bunker or barn

from such an organization and vet claim with any show

Believing firmly, rs we do, that the whole mass OF
the democratic party in New York now united in Sup.
port OF those national principles and are resolved 10
unite organization to sustain them and maintain
fhsir ascendency in the Empire State. hold that any
attempt orxanizo beA will only prove tina, the men
willing TO join in such are no, numerous

Whig Principles
The Nashville Banner has the following puff Of these
articles:
This government cannot be successfully and advans-
gecusy administered, wing principl and we
venture the prediction that wing principles will be found
underlying all the measures oil sound national policy which
the Administered shall be able conceive execu
during It's continuance in office"
By the above statement 1t would appear that whig prn-
cipes good for two puposes-hs,. be voted down
and repudaed by the people, and secondly to afterwards
guide and regulate the beneficial administration OF pop
uar government.
II these wing principles really such fine and useful
things they certainly throw upon the wing party in its
present condition the strongest possible reproach Tor what
terms describe the dement's OF party which. with
such invaluable political pairimony always and still in
s sole possession, has yet gone into avowed political
bankruptcy, and is only sedulous wind up it, af
fairs Again ii wing principles the only principles
which carry the government properly. what shall
say OF wing Statesmen who with the aid OF such
principles, carry the government without such
enormous abuses rouse indignant people 10 hurl

we'll for The Banner 10 explain why, II wing principles
are the only principles which the government
they happen be The only principles which the statute
book of The country does no, recognise excep, to
date and condemn.
