a private letter of distinguished Wing, to Wing
Senator:
lam delighted at the course pursued by Gov. Wise
in go promptly calling the Legislature together. He
has won very much upon Inc Of late aud from re-
parding him with political dislike, now appreciate
him ss one of the best and purest patriots our country
has produced. He is not afraid OF responsibilities he
desp;sss small tricks; and, my word for ihis courae
in this matter will do great deal for his reputation
We want men of such stuff at the head of at
fairs and he is The only truly independent pub
lie man now on the siege either in this State
or in the nation. Wrong he may be. but you
can always know where he stands. And when he
dyocates measure does an act, you are satisfied
bs does il on his own responsibility His course on
Kansas ia right and will be admitted by all year
hence I admire him for has lore 0f me Un'on
take it that Wise is proud of being citizen OF this
great Confederacy; and that he will fight it need be-
in the Union, and not ont of il. shall not be sur
prised. in the a6sence of Wing candidates, to find
both you and myself voting for him for the next Pre-
dency-a seutimentlwhch was certainly very far from
nv thoughts two months since. He cannot be put
down, for the people with aini. Whilst pot
clans may prefer others. say that he ie the man for
the times and party lines well nigh Ob;crated,
and Americanism wholly extinct. do not zee Hhy
We may not turn attention TO the best man the
Democracy can furnish. !, therefore, say "huzza
