R9- The Baltimore Clipper pitches
into two of its Democratic contempora-
ries, and makes some rather unpleasant
revelations concerning them, in the fol-
lowing style:
The war of the factions of the Democ-
racy is growing fierce and furious. The
Louisville Courier and the Cincinnati En-
quirer are both Democratic organs
They are both edited by locofoco office
holders. They both proclaim allegiance
to democracy, but they are as wide apart
as the poles as to what constitutes it. In
their abuse of each other they are telling
some truths from which the true charac-
ter of these democratic teachers may be
inferred. The Courier calls its fellow or
gan, the Enquirer, "an insidious sheet
owned and edited by Northern Aboli-
ton wolf in Southern Democratic sleeps
clothing" and says that 'its Black Re
publican editor, now disguised as DEM
ocrat, ON the 18th day of February, lS47,
voted i'm Congress with the notorious
Joshua X. Giddings, for the odious Will
mot Proviso." The Courier, however,
has no advantage of its abolition locofoco
contemporary in this respect. AT the
same time when the Enquirer man was
voting in Congress for the Wilmot Pro
viso, the Courier man was as vehemently
advocating the abolition of slavery in
Kentucky. They were then, as now, in
the same bed. They were then both rant
hing iree-soilers, they are now both free
soilers disguised as teachers of democra-
cy. There arc not few of precisely the
same sort among the democratic leaders.
