his course by stress of wind, he does moi
expect to recover it by questioning the prin.
.lciples Of navigation, and throwing away his
instruments and tables. On the contrary,
he relies upon them more then ever to ena-
BILE him to find and resume the right way
again and pursue his voyage to the destined
lport. The Wings have been certainly baf-
fled in their recent expedition, and are suf-
fering severely, but with admirable patience
and good nature, form an almost unexam-
Piled visit of untoward weather. Under
such embarrassing circumstances, the last
step any sensible man among them should
think of taking is 10 cast overheard the prin-
ciples they advocated. If any one has
not been sincere in this, the sooner he gets
rid of them the better. because, just now,
lthey are likely to do a.hypocrite no sort Of
good. They will be at present a very UNI
productive investment indeed.
But with many. and we hope the great
body Of the wings. this matter Of convic-
ton is quite out oftheir control. They have
embraced certain system of national pol
icy after due examination because they
could not help it. There is no option on the
subject. Who is it calls for an abandon
ment Of the old Wing party? Are there
those who have ever really been its mem
bers? What has happened to recon
mend 50 curious proposal? Orrather what
is there which can render such proceed
ing possible? There has never been. and
is not now material or legal ligature to
bind individuals together, and form party
It is union simply of opinion. Where this
exists, and as long as it shall last. there is,
and will continue to be, part to all in
tents, because, thinking alike, when action
comes. they win of necessity act in har-
mony
The question therefore, is not SO much
whether the party shall be dissolved or
changed, as whether their principles shall
surrendered? We say yes, if they have
been conquered. If the citadel of Wing
principles has been actually taken BY the
enemy. we are willing to capitulate, though
we should like to march out with the honors
of war Our greatest leaders are in their
graves, but they were not ranquished before
they died. No, that they we're not. Others
will spring to the vacant places at the head
Of our columns. An army Of good soldiers
never need despair of generals; they will
appear as fast as wanted, if the rank and
file acquit themselves as men Newark
