you know anything, in the purposes or aims
Of the American party, inconsistent with the
published platform Of our party There 10 no
such thing TO be exposed, and neither Mr.. Mi
chic, nor any other man can point out such in
consistency. We challenge him, and all others
who have lifted the veil Of secrecy, to speak
out and give facts to the world
Let there be no dealing in unmeaning gene
ralities,n schoolboy quotations from yir-
gil,--let the people have specific .facts, purpo-
ses, aims, designs, something tangible and
comprehensive to consider of, and decide upon,
in reference to the pretended "monstrun hor-
rendam," which this patriotic Wing" says
he has discovered
And here let us revert to the point, assumed
at the head Of this article, that the anti
American presses have changed their posi-
tions in their assaults upon our party. We
are no longer represented as "the Wing par

proofs refuting that position, is now to be ad-
ded the testimony Of Thomas j. Niche, Esq,
who has seen SAM" and who says in the
above extract, thatit is not Whiggery as he
had always understood I'll
That falsehood then, is nailed to the coun-

tofore charged, tho Wing party in disguise"

belief that our party is allied to anti-slayery,
and that, too, in the face Of tho well-known
fact, that the most bitter and unrelenting OPP
position to our doctrines, comes from the Sc
wards, Greeleys, Baileys, Summers, Wades,
Giddingses, and other devotecs of the anti
slavery factions Of the North, not to mention
the Hon. Charles James Faulkner, of Virginia,
the present administration candidate in the
9th Congressional District.
We shall allude to this charge in a future
number.
