THE Wing thinks it requires rare and
cool courage in Mr.. Hughes to face the
people in defense Of his political position,
Mr.. Hughes has done this very often in
that quarter of the state where the Con-
servative majority against him was ten
thousand, and no bones were broken.
The Wing forsets the two old adages made
for the admonition Of men of light heads
and shallow reflection, that ''people who
live in glass houses ought not to throw
stones," and that spot ought not TO call
kettle black.n 1
II there ever was party which aposta-
cized from its creed, and widowed itself
all over in radicalism, it was the party
which last year went for Horace Greeley,
and at Baltimore voted vote Of thanks to
the national soldiers and sailors for
walloping the Oonfederates. 1t is not
possible that any man of sense or
candor who did these things can find
much treason in the fact that Mr..
Hughes went actively for General Grant
against Horace Greeley. The man who is
so forgetful of conservative history as to
make such point, ought to bepnt to school,
and taught his A B CPS in politics.
These very shallow writer's seem to forget
one thing, which is that the Virginia peo-
pie by their direct votes repudiated the
Democratic creed Of State-rights in 1869,
and adopted the doctrine that the '.nation''
was supreme and absolute by a vote of
100000 to 1900.
Here was The apostacy, if You so
call 1t, OF a whole people, from those old
doctrines, in which The Wing itself par
tIelpated and yet, with simplicity which
is refreshing in these artfui times. The Wing
thinks it requires much bravery IN Mr..
Hughes to defend himself before a great
people for doing precisely what they did
in body, and did without shame or dis
honor.

that Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Hen

NOTHING can exceed the Conservatives
in that hardy quality called cheek, when
they speak Of the Inconsistency of
the men who were approved Confederates
throughout the war, and who since The
war have lived up to their oaths of allegi-
ance to the United States.
To have been consistent, it would have
been necessary for those men to have kept
up the war against the Union until the
present day, and to be still fighting the
United States on that line. But when
peace was agreed upon, and there ceased
to be Confederacy demanding allegiance,
and new allegiance was sworn to the
government of the United States, how
could man be consistent and at the same
time honest.
Our enemies have thoroughly succeeded in
being neither honest nor consistent. There
could be ne further departure from the
principles on which the war was fought than
they were guilty of in 1872, when they
followed Greeley into the farthest confines
of Radicalism. They out Heroded Herod
in subscribing to the Radical Cincinnati
platform, the ultimate of Radicalism, as
their creed, and in adopting Horace Gree
ley, the prince of Radicals, as their candi-
date.
They took this action in 1872 either has
tily or dishonesty. If they took it hon
estly, who have been SO inconsistent as
they were, having been rampant seces-
sionsts, good Confederates, faithful and
true southerners, and then swearing to
Greeley's Cincinnati ultra doctrines, and
clasping Greeley's unctuous person in their
loving arms?
Could there be picture of inconsistency
more complete OF more ludicrous than our
fire-eaters thus presented in 1872? II
they were honest in their double embrace
of Radicalism and Of its high priest, then
our good friends ought forever to eschew
the word consistency and Danish it from
their party vocabulary.
But gross as the inconsistency was, it
had not the all-redeemipg merit of honesty.
They were no more honest in 1872 than
they had been in 1860. They boosted Of
the trick upon the nation and upon the peo-
pie of Virginia, in the Walker movement
and they repeated the deceptive trick in
their acceptance of Greeley. No greater
fraud was ever practiced in politics than
was practiced by the leaders of the Virginia
Conservatives in theirpretense of being true
Republicans under Walker, and their claim
to be liberal Republicans under Greeley.
If they were Republicans at all, even but
10 name, what becomes of their consisten-
cy? If they were playing game Of de-
ception upon the state and the nation, what
became Of their honesty?
Sadly must it be said that this dishonor-
ed party, which decent public sentiment
throughout the nation loathes for its du-
plicity and double dealing, and which has
brought more discredit upon Virginia than
all the parties that ever existed in our bor-
ders before, has forfeited its claim to both
consistency and honesty, and stands before
the country equally without principles and
without faith. e
