THE Richmond Enquirer has gone into the
Presidential contest under the banner of Wise,
either to edo or die"-win or lose, fer good and
all. 1t has burned the bridges and cut off all
retreat in the campaign which is near at hand.
In the number coming to hand yesterday, it re
marks that there is no "middle ground" be-
tween Judge Douglas and Gov Wise. "rhe
views of these two statesmen being diametrical
ly opposite, it is impossible to occupy middle
ground Nor will silence in the platform effect
this object The candidate must have an opn-
ion-he must agree with one or the other. The
day when silent availability was recommen-
datiOn has passed, and will return no more
The experience of both parties, as matters of
history, attest the folly and wickcdness of any
such course. Availability term that dshon.
ors worth that mediOcrity may bo canonlzed-
will never again rally the American people,"

WIru1s perhaps a month from this time, the

WrTHIS perhaps a month from this time, the
telegraph will have announced to US, the arri.
val, at Portland of the latest and greatest wonder
of mans art,-the Great Eastern According
to arrangement, she was to have leftHolyhead
on her transatlantic voyage, on the 10th inst,
but in consequence Of the accident noted yes
terday by telegraph, she will be detained some
two or three weeks. The great confidence
which the English people have in her success
could not be better shown than from the fact
that underwriters are taking insurance on her
freight at reduced rates. Public expecta-
ton in Sregard to her speed, was even more
than realized, in the short trip in getting down
from her Deptford mooring to the More. Ow-
ing to a want of ballast, she was run at half
speed her wheels only making nine revolutions
per minute; yet, with all this, she made about
fifteen miles per hour. Her success, therefore,
may be looked upon as almost certain. Though
people went wild about the Atlantic Telegraph,
and predicted its complete success, upon the
first intelligence that n current had been OBJ.
tained, yet with all, there was an apprehension
that from causes which would constantly be
operating upon the wire, it might still prove a
failure. We are sorry to have to say that their
fears were realized whilst their predictions of sue
cess, were proved false. Not SO with this last
wonderful project; it, we might say, has already
succeeded
Her arrival at our shores will mark one of
the great events of mental and moral progress,
just as any of the humanizing inventions of
modern times have done; and will, hereafter, be
looked upon as the first grand step in the new
march of Improvement upon which civilization
has entered.
