WHIG CONTENTION.

1t is now clear that the Wings, ffreirg the3 Can
make nc.L;Ig Of Saua, are determined North and
South to cut his acquaintance. II is hard treatment
They robbed him of his culverts his secrecy and his
oaths his Catholic test and every thing else that dis
tinguished him. Stripped him. rak kod, and now leave
him to stsrve On the highway. But though tho treat
ment he cruel, it is all just. Sam, without his vile
principles, and ver habits and manners, is nonen-
tity The Wings find that the aterlpt to reform him
has DESTROYED his vitality. There il another reason
probably for their action. Genera! Gustavus Adol-
phus Scroggs' story may be true. Fillmore may have
foresworn his country and become llegeman to SAM
If so, the old line Wings will never sustain him.
Their proposed Convention will no doubt satisfy IT.
self as to this fact. We believe that Scroggs ac'
count true, and believing, have t,e4ted Mr. FILL
mores preteusiols with contempt. 1t is crime IN
man who has filled the Presidency of this Union,
mpeed by low ambition, to take oath, and to en-
Ter into engagements that cut him eff from the great
oody OF his fellow -ctzens-an oath that compels
MIN 10 acts of injustice and persecution. We are
sure the old line Whgs will view this matter as we
do "hat course they may determine on we know
NOT but OF this We arc setuied, they will have no
more to de- with Sam. They have tried in vain TO
lick him into shape They find that he is irreclaima
bic, unteachable and inc0rrgible They are diseust
ed with his association, and will cut his acquaintance,
now and forever. Soon, nothing of Sam will be left
in the South except his Black Republican tail here in
Richmond, and in the North the balance of his Der
son will be swallowed up by those same Black Re.

IOGJC FOR THE WHIG.

Words mean what those who employ them inteud.
The Richmond Wing, and the whole opposition to
the Democratic party, long since charged, with en-
tire unanimity, that the Kansas. Nebrasks oil! ees-
tanned the doctriua Of ,suatter sovereignty and
quoted that portion of the bill which they said main
tanned the Objectionable doctrine. After having
thousand times done so, they meet in Philadelphia
and boast that in their seventh section they have
adopted language of the precise import with that to
which they had objected. The great boast OF the
Whig is, that the Philadelphia Convention adopted
the seventh section, which the Wing also boasts is
Identical in import and almost Identical in terms with
the Kansas. Nebraska act. Thus the Wing and the
whole opposition have defined their words in ad.
vance, and say they maintain the doctrine Of squat

ter sovereignty. No doubt they do, aud hence the
18th section was repealed and the Missouri Conpro-
mise denounced by this Philadelphia Conventon.-
Tho Wing and its allies know what their own words
mean' and have right to define them; but have no
right 10 define for US the came words when employed
oy us. We, that is almost the whole Democratic
party maintained, when the Kansas bill on its
passage, and have held since, that lis terms do
h"tJustliy squatter sovereignty. We have tho same
right to define our words that the Wing and ia allies
have to define theirs. The eth section does contain
the doctrine of squatter sovereignty, and insert
ed as a concession to the North in lieu of the 18th
section, to which the North objected The Kansas
Nebraska bill, although in the same words, contains
no such doctrine because the words were employed
In different sense by those who enacted the bill.
