Its a whig Movement In Virginia.


We need no better evidence 10 prove that
the Know Nothing movement, in Virginia, is
simply revival Of Tho swhg party, than the
Iact that every Wing paper in the. State, with
one. single exception, has raised The FIournoy
ticket. There seem 10 be such entire harmony
Of purpose, as to defy evasion. The great OBJ
ject as avowed over and over agaio, is 10 b eak
down the Democratic organization. With nc
mani, principle 10 forward their aciions-nc
patriotic impulse 10 urge them on--but with a
low, servie and degrading thirs.ing after office
regardless of principle, the Wing press have
iaborsd and are now lsboring 10 break down the
Democratic party. LIE, the following extracts
speak for themselves. They show the hollow
ness of their professions Of patrio.sm-the by
pociisy OF their avowed motives Of action, ant
stamp upon them The seal Of political infam y
which will sickto them through life. Reno
