RAoUssET BoULBoN-The California papers
contain long letter from Count Raousset Borl-
bon, the leader of the military expedition in So
nora, which excited attention some months ago.
The object OF the letter is mainly to deny
that either he or his band were in that expedi-
ton the agents of any foreign power wha.ever.-
His object he says, was simply to open eu.igra-
ton to new place; he saw in Sonora ''the foun-
dalton for new California, not for the selfish
interest of one nation, but free and open to all
who might seek it to earn livelihood, far from
the narrow and over populated countries of Eu :
rope" He asserts that his company has rights
In Sonora, and that he drew his sword only 10
self defence, and charges the collision wholly to
Mexican Jealousy add rapacity.

Wing Address.

The address of the Wing members of the &C.
neral Assembly, which we published 10 out last
daily issue. should be read by every Wing voter
in the Commonwealth. The facts and ar
pumeuts embodied in this document, can
not fail to fortify the Wing party of Virginia
10 the determination to stand by their political or
gauization to the last extremity, aud to oppose a
firm and unwavering resistance to the policy of
their opponents. The address sketches briefly
but forcbly and truly, the recent history of Demo-
cratic legislation in this State, and we feel as
sured that the patriotic W higs of Virginia need
no stronger incentives to renewed exertions in be-
half of tn cir principles than that history supplies
They might have viewed with comparative in
difference, the obstinate and bigoted adherence
of the dominant party of our late Legislature to
their party dogmas touching the small note and
public land questions Nothing better was ex-
pec.ed ofthat party, so far these questions were
concerned Moreover, the Democratic people of
this Commonwealth, as well as the Wings, are
made to suffer for the failure of our Democratic
Legislators to provide a sound currency for the
community, and their refusal to receive our
share of the public lands But there are other
and darker chapters in the s'eventful history" of
the late Legislature. The Democracy have
evinced by a series of measures, the design and
tendency of which cannot be mistaken, that it is
their fixed purpose to reduce the Wing party to
state of political lage, if possible, and to
convert the whole machinery of our government
into a party engine. TO accomplish these
Objects our opponents have not scrupled
to trample under foot the plainest princi-
Piles of Justice, fairness and constitutional lib
erty. These matters ably treated in the
Wing Address, and to that document we direct
the attention of our readers.
