Richmond daily Whig. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1842-1861, 1860-10-02

resolve upon there can be no practical fusion for the
re,on that the rank aud Gle of the two parties will not
submit, to be transferred from side to the other as
the dissection Of seconsiu,ed masters. They are too
proud, too manly, too honorable for that
We are really shocked and disguised at this whole bu
sinsss. While the Breckinriye men actually snap
png their fingers de6lny aud insOleny in the faces OF
the Doueas men aud reproachng and denouneng them in
terms Of mercess severity see some few Douglas men
inimang willingness 20 lick the hands that beat them,
20 into "a fusion for the sole benefit of breckenridge
There has been no such melnchOy exhibition Of want
Of manuness aud moral courage in all Virginia history.
As for ourselves if VIC Douglas man in Virginia,
We would rather be dog aud bay the moon, than con-
,n, TO enter into any with the arrogant Breekin
ridge faction under existing circumstances Rather than
degrade ourselves to such an infinitely low pitch, We
would prefer death thousand times These Breek
nrdge men, for months past have been beating, and de-
nOuncing, and abusing Douglas aud his friends in Viz
gnia and yet in the face Of such fact, some Of the
Douglas men are willing to listen proposition for IA
fsou" with their most intense and impacabe enemies
Never. neser while the sun shines will the intoleren;
Breekiuridges of Virginia forgive or excuse any man,
who has ever sympathized vith Dougls and no amount
OF boviug aud kneeling aud tOadyng viii avail the Doug
las men now They crossed the RubicOn in their Staun-
ton Convention. Your votes viii be gladly received by
the Becknridgers for their candidate but will you
Yourselves be received into the favor Of the Breekn-
ridgsrs If these latter succeed in carrying the State
Your political saiety-your very political lvesis de-
pendent upon the defeat Of Breckenridge in Virginia
AID blind indeed is that man who does not perceive so
obvious fact Toe defeat Of Breckenridge puts in the
hands Of the Douglas men the key to all the contests
OF the future. His success is your doom. Too late
too las for either fiction yield compromise now
So far as the interests Of Mr.. Bell in this State
cerned we have no earthly objection to the putting forth
Of "a doubs-sho.led ticket-a mongrel ticket composed
Of D5ugss and B-ecknridse men, or ticket instructed
20 vote for either Breckinige Douglas-that is for
the one receiving the highest number Of votes We pre-
fer indeed thai some such fusion" should be effected
satisfied a. we are that thousands Of both Breckenridge
aud Douglas men in vrgiaia will to voting directly for
Bel in such an event. We repeat, decidedly prefer
"a fusion" ticket TO separate tickets aud hope the
two committees that meet in this city on the 5b for the
purpose Of considering the fusion proposition will make
knaves and bockheads of themselves and conform
wishes on the subject With fusion" ticket We think
Bel will obtain 10000 more votes than be will with two
separate tickets In either case however confident
" claim the State for Bel and Everett by from 10 900
to 21Co) majority.
The skies are all bright boys, in all directions. Only
continue to cork Ike beavers, and need have APP
,hensou Of the result Eheher we be called upon TO
meet the adversary il a separated Fused" state
Just keep the ball a-rolng-thas all that is necessary.
