UNION OF bunker WHIGGERY WITH Dor.
DER RUFFIAN1sM.-Rufus Choate, than whom no
man has done more to rain the Wing party by
his intense devotion to the interests of the slave
power, has at last found his level in the ranks of
the BUCCANEERS. In answer TO letter from the
Maine Wing State Central Committee. writing
him to attend a Convention OF the Straight
Wings of>that State, he avows his intention to
vote for Mr. Buchanan. Mr.. Choate has but lit
tie if any, political influence in Massachusetts or
elsewhere. His former denunciations of the
Democratic party, its men and its measures, coup
led with the present somerset, in which he throws
himself into the arms of the party now in the
very depth of its degradation and dishonor, will
have no other effect than to open the eyes of
thousands of honest Wings, to a realizing sense
OF the depravity of their leaders, and bring them
into the ranks OF the party of Freedom.
