I ID view of there declarations of the whig candidate for Governor, we cannot see why the (am, should be so anxious about the Dennicruts defin ing their position upon this question. There is no dispute about the position of the Democrats or their eandidate. The Democratie press, sail the Dosoerstie eandidate for Governor, are together upon this question. They are a unit.
