From the Winchester Republican.

Did Henry A. Wise,in his stump speeches du =
ring the last Presidential canvass characterize the
administration of Willard Fillmore as "Washing
ton like" The testimony is overwhelming that
he did. There are plenty of people who retain IL
recollection Of the precise term. Any one who
heard Mr.. Wise's speech inths place can rernem-
Der easily enough that his praise of the Fillmore
administration was fully!equivaeni to such an cx-
preston, for he rung the charges his approba.
ton so persistently that no one could forget them
soon. Referring to ouv file of September IL 1852,
we find it remarked that "Mr. Wiso's eulogium
upon the President (NIr. Fillmore) elected hearty
cheers from the Wings"
Whether or not Mr.. Wise did use the express
sion of "Washngton like" was not primarily Of
any consequence, for it would have been no diff
ficult matter to perceive that Mr.. FilImores nd
ministntion Washington like throughout,
even though Mr.. Wise had asseyerated that il was
| not until his lungs grew hoarso with repetition
The Winchester Nirginan, Democratic pa.
per, in n notice of Mr.. Wise's speech in this
place, chronicled his remark that the nomination
| of General Scott had been forced upon the Fill
more Wings of Virginia AN shameful disregard
of the claims of II statesman utter their own heart
the model President" The italics are our own
| and we shall charge nothing for them, IN consd
| Grafton of the TACT that Mr.. Wise cannot wriggl
out OF this laudation without impeaching the We
raeity of an organ of his own party in this State
| IL Is uisuBTeeahlr, no doubt, TO nave such en-
| comiums brought forward at SO unfavorable {
season for the Democracy, and turned agains
them like destructive weapons against the
owners. But they are not the less true and WALTZ
on that account; and TO assail in the present cam
paign "A candidate for the Presidency who is, b,
Democratic showing, a washington like an,
model President will require degree of par
tisau serviliy which for the sake of patriotic Of
fort in troubous times, we fain hope will not b,
| displayed"
Lynchburg daily Virginian. [volume] (Lynchburg [Va.]) 1852-1861, 1856-03-27


We have had our fears as to the snnity Of
Gov. WISE but sincerely wished that our ap-
prehensions were without foundation. II seems.
however,, from the following extract from one or
two exchanges, that this painful affection to the
family Of Gov Wise, aud to the Commonwealth,
is too true for Jest. We do not know whether
the friends Of Mr.. Wise will obtain n commits sion
dc iundticS inquirendo, and turn over the gov
eminent to 1t Gov. McComas, or keep the un-
fortunate Governor under private surveillance,
and let his personal and political friends oxcr
else the executive functions for him The cnse
in difficult Que, aud we hope that no steps W Il
be taken without mature reflections:
'IlENRY A. WISE lNsANE.-It is said and be.
leved in Richmond, by persons who have the
very best opportunity Of knowing, that Governor
| Wse's mind is very much impaired, indeed, 80
much SO that he shout not be held responsible
for his language or writings. An eiior, has been
made to suppress these facts, but they have
! leaked out. II this be So, and we sec no reason
| to doubt il, Mr.. Wise is entitled to the sympa
thy aud pity, rather than tho onmity, Of those
against whom his virulent. yet harmless Rulings
ARE directed"
"Of Gov. Wise's insanity there can be no lon
ger doubt and 1t now appears that his imme
dinte family and Friends lhnve been aware for
time bnek that his mental faculties were much
impaired and warped They have used every
effort To intercept his letters when intended
for publication. but he has far succeeded in
GLIDING their vigilance. Mr.Wisos insanity can
be very properly tracted TO the unbrded rein
he has hab'ually given to his ungovernabe and
vicious disposition The proper steps may per
baps shortly be taken to obtain u commission
de iundfics in9uirendo in mis- case and the Exec
utive chair will then probably be rendered va
cant on the ground of the present incumbent be-
ing non compis meRtis.'
