Wing journal of Virginia, and in decd of
the whole south h,--and ever strongly pro-
slavery in its spir,t-discusses the ques-
tions of the union of the entire cpposi-
tion to the democracy, aud Of probable

The prospect for such contamination is
bright enough ut present, and We trust

But tie Spath maintains the impossi.

wish, We fear, is father to its thought.
As we have said, We see do difficulty. no
obstacle, no embarrassment in the gay.
