THE GLOBE In ls4l.
That our Republican readers may see that
the Globe was no. the apologist and supporter
of Mr. Clay in 1S41, we offer brief editorial
from that print, commenting with no little seve-
rity on the conduct Of the !. Dictator" We
doubt very much, after committing himself so
upreservedly against his " old friend and con-
nexion by marriage" in lS41, whether Mr.. Blair
could induce any considerable portion Of the De-
mocracy to support him in 1914.
From the Globe. September IA, ls4l.
THE JACOBIN CLUBS.
The standard and classic works which are now
issuing from the French and English press-the his
torical works Of THIERs and Carlyle, and other
will put it in the power Of the rising generation Of
America TO study the history OF the Jacobin Clubs
which ruled all legislation and all Government in
France during the early part Of the Revolution, and
which have just been inflated and established in our
country. The French Jacobin Ciub-the parent
club which sat in Pars--was an Invention to enable
RoBEsPiERRE TO govern the Legislative Assembly and
the Convention. In these Clubs the dictator
BLEED his party every night, made them agree to every
measure which he proposed, and bound them to sup.
port it the next day in the House. In this way all
legislation was done in the club and, nothing
done there but that which RoBEsPIERaE ordeleI, 1t
resulted that he became the sole Legislator of France
The machinery of the Jocolin Club effected this ;
and in like manner the machinery OF the die
tsiion has enabled Mr. f. CLAY to become the sole
legislator Of America during the memorable session Of
the Hundred Days. Saving the two bills wrecked
upon the rock Of the two veoes, his will was law
So far az the two Houses Of Congress were
ed, he was the sole legislator and the two Houses
met curly every morning. he had ordered 10 regis
ter the DEGREES which he had dIcla.d the night he
fore. In the House Of Representatives the tyranny
and despotsm Of the gag silenced debate and van
Qushed opposition and the DEGREES were registered
nearly as fast as read Ia The Senate where deter
minalon resist the gag eren undo death, prevent
ell its application, the result sill the same,
though more slow. The dictaior's DEGREES wee all
registered in the end but the freedom of speech be-
ing still maintained, tie DEGREES, though passed, were
discussed and exposed. and subjected 10 adherence
and dstain. The same 10 nominations The dc
tator put of all 10 the last, and passed all All except
one, The head pipef were passed And all this ty
dlctatio, IN imitation Of Jacoblnical cubisn.
The session which has just closed-the which
from its acts may be called the rAX-DEBT-and
PLUMBER SESSION-has the honor Of originate
ing the Jacobin club system In the United States
for notw Outstanding we have always had, and for
shall have political meetings, tled csucuses,
yet all these meetings have heretofore been for potii-
cal and Legislative Objects for agreeing upon candi-
dates or upon the tinr or the mode of doing hing
and Tor the purpose of binding the W hole party
support, oppose law in the House, According To
the orders OF the master spirit ia The THIS is
what Is new in America. This is what was done in
France. This is tyranny, despotism, disgrace, ruin
10 all legislation, and must end, If not stopped the
destruction of Representative Government.
