We DO not propose, then, To iiS:4x p
simply TO cal! attention 10 the several nj. 4
in which Mr.. Garlic has chosen 10 indic.3E
iIsapprobation Of the Richmond "raa!,A'
lie deems that We hs"c been vcry u: a
otto in intimating that Virginia can IA
any circumstances, be dragged into ; Il
cru Confederacy. Notwithstanding wi;GH'
are still Of opinion that there are brave IL
and true men enough in Virginia, and tha.,H
are ties oicommoa interest, OF comncn d, n.
OF reciprocal affection, above al, Of HOME r.
OBLIGATION, binding Virginia IL her i
Southern States, all strong enough TO "iE;
Virginia into Southern CoEfederscy, uE,i
than permit even scores Of ,houserd. q "
tors in our midst no: only to"I:ss" hc, j.

now partially accomplished, Of SouIhe:2 .5 l!s

il, we would tha;.k c:rn the insl.vo!.:A
Mr. Carlile for so high compliment Esn
Mr. Garlic finds contradiction" and IT.
sistcrcy" in :hc two POSITIONS Of the Ri:tA
Enquirer" assumed, respectively, il H.
and in 1861, viz: In ISIS, the "EG,:k
hoped To see the Union and The n:
I'll the South in the Union, restored GDi H.
tained through the agency Of the Deuad q
party, and deprecated the efforts Of disGn.
perse to disrupt that party: Yet in 'Gc-:: IT
Enquirer applauds the Secession Of $9.. y
States, consequent on al open dcclaric
war against the South made 1t the pol: H.
majority Of Northern voters. We are 81 y
whether to attribute this rcmarkabc disc
of "contradiction" TO the extraordinary Il -
ness Of SIR. Csrlie's intellect, or to the ST; ei
candur Of his disposition. Our rcaieE:
decide.
Mr.. Carlile complains that the editors d y
Enquirer" have cracked their whip c's
shoulders" Mr. Garlic is mistaken. Tie L
OF our whip is always o welcome Siglsl |: +,
gallant leaders and noble " heel Horse; Q! .;

is intended. We never crack our whip 4
