nambulism, or he must have alluded to the
Whigs by mistake, when he was thinking
OF his own party.
But he says the Wings do not oppose
Democratic principles. What are Demo-
cratic principles? Will he have the kind
ness to tell US?
The Wings want a revision of the Con.

are in favor of substituting currency with
which they can be perfectly acquainted, for
the food Of shinplasters about the sound.
ness of which they know little or nothing.
They want bank with branches ct the
principal commercial points as great con-

measure. They favor such law as they
do railroads.-for the public good.
