DIR NOBLE ALLIES.

No one supposes for single that generou.
and patriotic allies the old line Wings have united Their
forces with the present momentous crisis with any
thought OF obtaining political Offices Of honor trust by
40 doing We are quite certain that they have had far
higher and noble views and objects in view They have
been imbued with lofty patriotism that rises far above
sonsl considerations interests and prejudces They have
the discorant factions to which they have held
antagonsc position, banding together to overthrow
the Constitution and dissolve the Uniou and they have
nobly and generously resolved to stand by the National
Democracy in the coming struggle.
They compose wing Of the great army Of the Union
Occupying this proud position standing thew do
equals is rgh, and proper that they should have
share allowed them in the honors have to bestow
shall allow ourselves to be outdoue by them in gene
rosity, They have been ready and willing to sacrifice
their old party prudices upon the altar OF the public
good and shall hesitate do the Is il asking
much Of the noble Democracy OF city and county,
put OF leading and influential allies in nomina-
ton for political oicey We think there eau be but one
answer to this question.
II any genuine proud Old Line Wing where in these
United States read the foregoing extract from the
PeHpSyirdnidH Buchanan organ in Philadelphia
without feeling II he had taken monster dose OF pe
cac, both pity and contemn him from the bottom Of
our hearts. We have rarely anything in public
journal well calculated to excite rrepresble disgust and
make body vomt To hear unadulterated aud
scrupulous Locsioco calling protesting be Old Line
Wings our noble allies" l. it not enough to make
good Christian all creation and despise his
"Our generous aud patriotic allies That tops the eli
of efrontery And how they have any sensbili-
" all do these deserers from the Wing party the
| camp OF Locolocoism feel when they thus damned
with such disgusting praise Can they really feel like
white oksf Or do they they should do, in the midst
of their humiliation, feel like negroes penitenary con
vctss Like the latter be sure if they yet blessed
with any feeling a-it not they glory in their tresch
cry and their shame.
R,tn audi Rack fa unt.f
Or noble allies" have deserted their friends and fallen
the of their enemies with ony the "thought
Of obtaining political offices of honor by do
ngn That their sole had
nothing TO do with their dgIaeefu somersettng Self
shness and lack Of principle the bottom Of the
whole business. And the Democracy will discover
their great annoyance perhaps that such is the fact
fake the Virginia Wing eXioliaors for example. What
prompted them to declare thesevesn behalf of Bucha-
nan! Suppose the present contest In fact they
iTauduenty assume, simply between Buchanan and Free
mont. Would their make Virginia any surer tor
Buchanan than it is without thems Would the State
certainly its for Buchanan whether noble
allies" supported him not What them becomes of
their imsy and silly prsteri for desertion? Will it, up
ON examination even hold waterS We submit ii to the
Judgment Cf all candid and intelligent say whether
it does not.
NO. these men, scarcely an
hove all been animated in their by hopes of the
spoils IL is entirely useless therefore, for the Buchanan
organs be enreang their party allow their sal
lies" ''share" in the honors and emouments which they
may have bestnw. These deserers will all he found
be sufficiently disposed push their fortunes and
whether you are willing for them have Office or not
they will be strike for at the earliest opporuni-
w. and will kick up terrible in their homes,
should their wishes be opposed. We congratulate the
Democracy upon the accession of such To their rauks
They in the wrong pew with US, and utterly
worthless besides Ii is be hoped that they will make
themselves little useful where they have gone.
They WILL he sure have nger in the wilderness for
few months, and perform the drudgery and dirty work
Of the Democratic party; but such is their impudence
and sedshnss- they will emerge, throw of the yoke
aud up captains aud leaders then follows speedily
ing thus obtained their reward they will become the
rampant and wdemouthed of LOcofoco preachers and
m ssionaries, and will that they Whig-
but always born-Democrats. Watch them closely
for a WHILE aud then tell whether have describ
ed their programme with entire accuracy.
Weconsider the Fillmore forces greatly strengthened
by the fen desertons which have taken place. We art
rid only Of Membranes and the party standing
compact and firm, and working harmoniOusIy and ener
geticay, will win a noble and soul-stiring victory. w,
say victory because have unwaverng faith in justic
anil the right Let the Of these selfish deserters
then, only have the effect Of stimulating renewed
erons in behalf Of glorious candidate the Constu
| ton and the Union
