go TIE WILMINGTON Herald like many other
fanatics in the party seems delighted with the turn
of affairs in Charleston 1t says 1.-The old concern has
been in bad health for some years, &c" We are
willing to acknowledge that the party is ''old,' 80
old that it can we'll remember the ups and downs of
political life. We have been a party long enough
to see who are fools and we have long since come
to the conclusion that the know nothing party and
its leaders were of stamp where knavery might be
said to be the embodiment Of them all. They
ufactured the Black Republican party, and made TIE
North abolitionists They formed the monster with
which we have had to contend and now with de-
moniaca horse laugh, spiting fire from their forked
tongues, glorying in their work of rapine and dark
ness we have them assuming new garb called the
National Union Party. Pretty garments will not
not do to cothe your seeky, Shiny, scalcy form
the people will unve your masked proportions, and
show the world your fshy scaley black republican,
scorpion tale, which though the slim end of you
be found in e North of the South will crush
your viper head under our heel Yes, that is a
| task for 1.-The Great National Democracy" TO accom-
plish, and we will show you how handsomely we
can do it. We have the power and in the name of
God and country, will scurge you and your
worthless abolition allies from the face of chrsten
dom, and the place that has heretofore known you
shall know you no more


1t has been SAID that there dd exist w mig party
once This is doubtful. Martin Luther has said
and wisely, that man lives forty years before he
knows himself to be fool, and at the time he be-
gins to his folly, his life is nearly finished,
sequently many men die before they begin to live.
Following this truth, must certainly conclude
that the Wing party has lived, for when it
began to it's folly it departed this life. We
| then say, for pity sake. Mr. Herald don't put on
such f1ushless face when your handkerchief should
serve as its covering for shame You never had a
party never will have one, and the thing you did
have you are ashamed of it, you point to a
single act in. its history but should be condemned
by all honest men. You may breathe out your foul
gests your rawlings which are but the efusion Of a
nauddlea understanding and party rage, yet. you
will find to your chagrin and the benefit and hope
of the country that the Democratic party lives and
that with the power of Sampson unshorn, it viii
put death the petty isms of the North and South

abandon that crazied faction, and yourself ane


country from shame and an ignominous death.
