Another Bolter.

Judge John W. Nash will not support Mr. Wise. His reason is, that Mr. Wise has insulted every member of the Democratic party, advocated all the measures of the old Whig party, insulted and denounced, in the most bitter style, all the idols and leaders of the Democrats, and now has no recantations to make; nothing to take back. Having said Democrats were not gentlemen, that they were dirty and corrupt; that they were Rogues, and that "he would not suffer his pointer bitch to lap the blood which flowed from a Democrat's veins," and now refuses to take any thing back; Judge Nash, as a Democrat, and a gentleman, too, cannot support him.
