ANOTHER EMINENT WING FOR BUCHANAN.
The Hon. Charles j. Jenkins is the most distin-
guished Whig in Georgia. He has been the cand-
date of his purity for Governor, for the Senate of the
United States, and for the Vice Presidency. Always
steadfast in attachment to his party, and iuexibe in
opposition to the Democracy, he considers that he
has no alternative, in this crisis, but to support Mr.
Buchanan for the Presidency. We appeal TO all hon
est patriots to weigh well the arguments and conclu-
sions of this able address.
LETTER FROM HON. CHARLES J. JENKINS.
LEXINGTON Ga, Aug. II, 1856.

Dear Sir: Having for many years been associated

respect for your opinions upon all subjects Of public
policy, you will pardon me, hope, for taking this
liberty Of asking you to give me your opinion in wri.
ting upon the claims OF the candidates before the
country for the Presidency, with the privileges of
using it as may wish As an Old Line Wing, feel
that duty and patriotism require that support james
Buchanan in the present contest.
Very respectfully,
WILLIS WILLINGHAM.
