Resurrection.

Resurrection.
A serious move is on foot to resurrect
the old Wing party in Nevada. A pa
per has been extensively circulated
within the past week and numerously
signed by old members of that gallant
party, pledging themselves to meet in
this city on Saturday week to perfect
an organization.
The Whig party went to pieces upon
the nomination IF Gen. Scott for the
Presidency in 1852, as the country came
nigh doing before his successful oppo-
nent half closed his Administration.
From the time that the great statesmen
of the nation, and leaders Of the Wings
were discarded to make room for men Of
military fame, the party sunk gradually
into a decline, and the finishing stroke
to the Wings and mortal existence of
Webster was done at one and the same
time in that convention that nominated
Scott for the Presidency. Wiseacres
are wont to talk fippantly of obsolete
Wing principles. Those principles have
been defended by the ablest inteliects
America ever produced. They have
been shown to be the essence of Eatioh-
al policy, the basis on which a stable
and enduring government rests. They
can never. therefore. be obsolete. Wing
principles are something more than ira
dition, and Wings are not all gone
whoreing after the idols Of Democracy
and perished in the gainsayings of loco
focos There is vitality in the tenets of
that gallant old phalanx now disbanded
after the fatigues of many well fought
field. There is resurgen force IN its
members yet, whose scimetars may
again CLEAN in many battle led on by
another Harry of the West-God speed
the day
But has the day arrived
To roll from Gicry's tomb the stone away"
and call forth the country's savior! 1t
NAV be questioned. There is a policy
almost divine to be consulted. The
great meudacious enemy of the Wings
has been rewarded, like Judas, for his
services, and beir 6 given rope sufficient
is about to hang himself like his old pro-
totype. Buchanan, the slanderer of
Clay, fills the Presidential scat, and the
clangor of the free masses has risen
against him. United in a determined
column they are about to reward him
for his injustice to the statesman OF Ken
tucky, and far be it from us to distract
that column or thin its ranks by any in
ducement to desertion. The voice OF
the immortal dead cries from the ground
that the guilty shall not go unpunished
Let no Wing interpose to stay the arm
of the avenging masses If the move
ment to reorganize the Wing party Will
favor the enemy against whom we have
all our life been at war, we must beg to
be counted out. We see certainty
ahead of accomplishing a purpose, and
cannot exchange it for an uncertainty.
