sphere a noble thing. When we have
newspaper that we can rely upon-one that
we know to be disintereSted-one that gives
its opinions wholly with the view Of pro-
noting the public welfare and guarding the
public interests-there is pleasure and
real satisfaction in reading it that Is de-
lichtful. We regard it as friend and
guide. one that is to be trusted and fol-
lowed.
Alas! Whit is it when we know that 1t is
welded to the private and personal aspira-
tions OF manufacturing in his cause and
seeking his advantage! We can find no
comfort in the counsels OF that paper; we
can find no solace in It's reflections; forthey
are not subordinate to the public welfare;
not engendered by that high motive which
overrules all the inbors and wishes Of the
patriot-the public welfare. ,,,a,
The Richmond Wing has been for years
obedient to the views and desires of WI
LIAM MALONE. He has reyer snufied that
the Wing did, not sneeze;, s. he has never
changed his views or his plans that the
Whig did not change instantly. II,
This present character of the Richmond
Wing is matter OF general comment. 1t
has become so odious as to offend the nos
trlls of all the people. The wonder is that
there should be tbrazen-faced impudence
enough in any man or set OF men to carry
forward this shameless subordination Of a
venerable and long-known journal to the
Will and interests OF single man. Gene
