mined upon-at least so far as the leaders
of some of the elements are concerned. The

The Enquirer reads the doom of its party
in the prospect of anion of all the Oppo-

invitation to address meeting of the Wings
of Lafayette county, in which, while he
commends the effort to re-organize the
Wing party, he says: :. But il is not strong
enough to act separately and alone. To
accomplish any real good for the country

must cooperate with the other elements of

which have divided the nation into sectional
fractions, and have destroyed the peace and
confidence of the country, and endangered
its integrity. Such cooperation demands
no sacrifice of Wing principles-not title.
On the contrary, it requires the exercise CT
the best attributes of genuine Whig-the
patriotism which would lead US willingly
to sacrifice our personal prejudices and pre-
possessions (if we have ANY, for the public
good-the courage which would enable us
when fully convinced of the right, to main
tain it against all odds-and the moderation
and forbearance living and letting live)
