THx OH I.isR Wines received cOmpli-
ment from Stephen 4. Douglas, on Wednes-
day night, in his speech at the Park, which,
We nope, they will appreciate at its full va,
Iue. II sounds 10 Us as one who acted for
wears and Years with the old Wings, and as
one who has heard more ISLANDERS Of the old
Wing party from this same Mr.. Douglas than
from any living man, as very much like an
additional insult Mr.. Douglas, in the same
vein, went 10 old Hanover IN Virginia. the
other day, 10 praise the Henry Clay dead,
whom he had caiunniated during all the
DAYS Of his political life. We hardly knew

will naniully support the American ticket
The Wing party will support Mlliard Fall
