WHO TO THE WHfGS.


As the E4i.o: Of the Tribune has opened his columns .
the Communications Of the friends Of The presen; Mayor


ev will pay for the1n avail ourselves Of ;as generous
offer and propose 10 say few words brother Wings
through tha; channel, which ask their attention


When IN army about 10 take the field /; s siway well
20 consider who are 20 be is generals The Why's are
called upon by Mr. Greeley, Mr. Seider, and few others
OF that achool but they entitled 10 confidence
Mr. Greeleys clique years ago at the head OF
Affairs In this s1te The whg party had gained glorious
minority owing 20 their miserable trucking Catholic Ia
fnencethe sound portion Of the party became Disguised,
withdrew their support and suffered the -eins OF psyer
drop from their hantsthe demagoSue policy Of Seward,
Weed and Greaey broke down the Wing party. We ask
If the Wings OF New-york willing again to be led 70
ruin b. these politicians? Have they proved themselves
competent to manage any party We think not


As regards Sr seden what claim has ne upon The Wing
party this City Not long sIne he refused TO take
In the General Committee, saying the Wing party
nothing to him he 10 the Wing party. Is such
entitled TO votes? We ask whether the policy he ad
yoca:es sensible one. Is desirable that the Loco
Foco party should have the asccDdancy ia this City 70
again for years come? Is it prudent, is Ii us
able. Our City is well governed Mayor is almost
without h4ul:- Every speaks well Of him


"Nonc know him but to lore him,


Or name him hut 70 pra!s..'


Adm yet called to prescribe and put him down.


The Wings have always prufessed be liberal in their
estimates Of the conduct of their political enemies
Oar leading journals and polite have gone 50 far as 20
say ;la # Mr.. Polk does well they viii not oppose him.
and yet we called to oppose in this city good
Mayor, good Wing. and good Administrator Beauti-
ful coussicncy We trus: the Whrs viii no; be led o. IN
this wicked crusade agans, Of their friends
the heck of any denissoeue. Ilt'l MANY WINGS.


There YOU are, gentlemen, now hear rs min.
Ip


You remind the public that "Seward, Weed,
Greeley" &c. had prominent position in the
Wing party OF this State in the desperate struggle
of 1910; while they were ds'rusted, contemned,
virtually put in Coventry, in the contest Of lsi4
and gour notions and policy had the lead, while we
were content TO do all we knew how for the Wing
cause and be DETAINED, malgned, and uaduced in
lying whispers IN every part of the Country, as Sc
crct enemies of Nh Clay and intending 10 defeat
hiln, You went off on Harper and Natlvism last
Spring to destroy us: would 10 Heaven you had
destroyed none bu, us. We had our way in 1910;
you had yous in '.l4-not by oyeruing us fairly in
the State but by taking ii in this City, end com
peiling US 10 submit to your lead or break up the
party The State was easier TO carry for Clay one
year ago than ii was for Harrison five years ago.
Need we point you TO the result


You say the Wing party was broken down in this
State by following or lead. Not so. sirs You
took possession of the helm BY force III 1871, COM
PEELED Mr. VerplancE 10 decline his regular nomlna-
tion for Senator because he agreed with Gov. Sc
ward on the School Question, and you took the
most unwarrantabc course OF pedgins the Wing
party of this City to one side OF local question on
which there was an honest difference OF opinion in
our ranks-to wit, that same School Question
You pledged all our candidates from the City TO
you views on that question: and so kept it pledged
through the succeeding contests. We who
cherished different sentiments had 10 hold our
tongues and vote former pledged not hear US but
to decide against any compromise we might offer.
But even this complete possession did not satisfy
you; YOU mus, at length run of and amalsamate
with faction which had split off from our adversa
rics npursuit OF office, defeat Morris Franklin, one
of the ablesi and most thorough champions of your
own side of the School Question, virtually put
Davy Jones into The Senate IN the fall OF 'iS, elect
Harner & Co. in the Spring OF ~, and make us all
vote your mongre ticket las; Fall, destroying the
noblest man IN the Country and bringing down
terrible defeat the Wing Cause.


What more! You are not satisfied yet New
York City must be severed from all Political con-
necon or sympathy with the Wings oi the State
aud the Union Dudley Selden must now be hunt
ed down. But he never bore any part in the School
controversy. He never was even suspected OF any
affinity with Weed, Seward, Greeley, etc. But
he is an open foe 10 Intolerance, 10 Prescription,
and the blending of Religious controversies with
Politics, SO you mus; crush him. And what charge
do YOU bring against him Some anonymous
say-so that two years ago, he declined 10 serve on
the General Committee, with an expression imply
ing peiulance or weariness. Miserable gossip! Do
you remember that be was the chosen Representa-
tive of our City in the t,co last National Conven-
tons. to nominated Presideni' Ask the friends of
Henry Clay from Maine 10 New-Orlean ii they DO
no. know and contiiy IN Dudley Selden


But Mr.. HpysE Is Whi:, you say Indeed
What Wing in this city, where he has lived all his
active life, ever knew him 10 give a days time or
dollar OF his immense fortune to promote the
Wing Cause ! We have known him these ten
years, and have had some knowledge Of Wing
doings in our City and State; but We never heard
James Harper named as a man who had done OF
would do any thing for the Wing Cause until he
was in want OF Wing votes for Mayor. Did any
body else!


AS to Mr.. Harpers personal qualities and mer-
its we will say nothing, because this contest Is IN
no sense personal one. If he had come up on ms
personal merits, we nigh, say something on that
head But Mr. Harper is in the field as The canol-
date and embodiment of Native Amencanisrn-he
was made candidate by party, and required, as a
condition of his nomination. 10 sign written
pledge 10 advocate the restriction of Naturalization
10 residents in the Country for the preceding twen-
ty-oue years and appoint Native 10 the exclusion
OF Adopted Citizens 10 Office These are the bale
iul elements of discord and anarchy which, in a
momcn; of excitement, prostrated the Wing party
and made Alr. Harper Mayor; his reelection wl
be the triumph of these principles and the signal toi
