From the extract above nade. from the Rich
nlond "Whig' of January II, 1855, it will be
seen that the "Whis" Thought it necessary for
Richmond to purge herself from the free soil

fame OF the city that her citizens should win

that paper considered aS confirmed in the fact
by the course of Bolts and his friends If thi,

like necessity exist for the State Of Virginia in
1859, to purge herself "f both Bolts and the

every respect, In the first place, Mr.. Gosgin
is the representative Of the party that nomina-
ted him, and, if elected, would be expected to
carry ont the principles ayowcd in the platform
and speeches of tho Convention that nominated
him. We take II for granted. that when Con-
vention unanimously endorses Il speech, the
principles avowcd in that speech are accepted
as right and proper by the Convention. More
especially is this the case when, by unanimous
rc.olution, The Convention requests the speaker
TO rcpc:,t III; speech at every convenient
noini" in the State We take it, that under
such circumstance, the speech Of Mr.. Bolts is
more the platform Of rile party than the batch
of resolutions formally adopted.
In this view of the case Mr.. Goggin is thr
representative Of Mr. Rotts, the cniorscr Of
Mr. Bots principles, and il elected, would be
expected to naug,iratc the principle, that in
ls5i we're denounced 20 bitterly in the above
extracts. Nnw vr will not apply to Mr. Cog
Gin the cpithcts the "Whig applies to Mr. Bolts;
lint we a, bound to regard him as the repre-
sentative of the principle, advocated i'll ls3d
by Mr.. Bolts. for they were boldly and deantly
rcitcra,c, l.y Mr. Bo;,s before the Convention
ina, nominated Mr. Goggin. The principle,
held hv Bolts in 1856, were particularly en-
dorsrd hv Col Scrucg, rcSonti"n-and Mr.
Cossn cauno, now avoid the responsibility
that thr;S al;aclic, to him.
Had Nr. Eu,ts been rcpudiatcd, or had thc
