THE REAL DANGER.

REAL OtAISOTGAts
Some weeks ago we took up and read, for the
first time, work translated from the French,
1.-THE ''n,enloirS Of Count Dumas, " in which is
given detail of the inception and progress Of
the French Revolution. Our blood frequently
ran cold at the striking parallel between the
tifces adopted by the demagogues, who, in the
name of the people, perpetrated the greatest out
RACES that have disgraced humanity, and those
which now distinguish the dominant faction in
this country. This fact was again urged upon
our notice, by the insulting and hypocritical
charge that the Wing party were Decorating
our holy religion, by mock administration OF
the Lords Supper, with hard cider and Parched
corn, published in the Globe and Richmond En-
quirer. That charge has been denounced as a
falsehood, and is untrue, as we believe, in every
particular. We do not know what may have
been done in a drunken frolic, and that there are
drrnxards in the ranks OF both parties n, nsfwiIl
deny; but we do not believe that any one of our
party, much less have the Wings as aParty, been
guilty or given countenance in any manner, to
such an outrage upon our religion. But how is
it with Mr.. Van Buren, and his party
Did he not displace respectable and faithful
officer to make place for Eli Moore-whose on
w recommendation was his influence over the
deluded, atheists and reyilers of all religion =
Is not Mr. Moore, an openly avowed infdel, and
does he not mock and scof, and by all means
in his power, attempt to bring the worsip of God
into disgrace And has not Mr.. Van Buren, Sc
lected him for one of the most responsible Offices
of this country
Here is an act that marks the character Of the
party. But we would tell every protesting chris
tan to read the following. We ask every
Minister of the Gospel to read over and consider
the facts disclosed in the following extract which
we copy from the Albany Evening Journal. We
call upon every Wing editor in the United States
to publish it.
From the Albany Eoeniug Journal.
VAN BURENISM IN 1912.
The people of this once fourishing country
have acquired a pretty accurate knowledge oil
Van BurenIsm, as hitherto developed. They
have seen the first fruits of its destructive poll
CIV in the overthrow of credit and commerce, the
depreciation ofproperty, the reduction of wages,
individual distress and insolvency, and bank
rnpt Government. They have felt what Van
Burenism has already accomplished for them
II Is now high time that they should awake to
its intentions for the future. They have had
taste of the beauties and blessings which have
followed in its train They now to know
what tender mereies it has yeti store for them.
There appeared n the leading Van Buren, pa
per in the city of New York, Ghe Evening Post,)
some few days since, the following announce
ment:
ttOur candidates, to be successful, must have
somewhat Of prophetic character; they must
resemble IN this respect our candidate, already
nominated for the Presidency-the characters
tic feature Of whose present position is prepare
ton for future series of public measures, OF
which he has as yet been able to give us but an
initiatory sample No final measure is yet con-
summated. The year 1912 is pregnant with inn
portant events and consequences, and nothing
has been, or can now be done, but to prepare for
that crisis. 1t is then that our glorious constr
tuition will undergo its hardest trial; and as we
now well know that so far as the President can
control the progress of that trial. all will be safe,
il is our duty to support him, not only directly,
but indirectly, by filling all subordinate and mi
nor stations with men of like principles and
spirit as himself"
Thus, in mysterious and prophetic phrase,
speaks the oracle of Loco Focoism. Is any one
at loss to guess the meaning of these predic-
tons? Do the people wish to know what are
the schemes here dimty foreshadowed9 nhas
are stthe series Of public measures in preparation"
Of which the specimen we have had, disastrous
as it has proved, is but ''initiary sampler
What are the great events and consequences
with which the year 1912 is pregnant What
the crisis which is then to be passed through
the glorious contamination then to be achieved!
The answer is ready and undeniable. Loco 70
coism has thrown of its mask and stands revealed
in all its deformity. The pestilentiaI and dis
