WASHINGTON CRY, March 81, 1882
The presence of the Hon. VIM. J. Brown among his
old friends has produced the seest satisfaction every
where, and he has with cordial reception from all
his old associates The only regret that he will not
stay long enough with us, to tive all chance of
showing him the attention which Is due TO his position,
and his eminent services in the Democratic party.
There is Just now much talk about quarres and dis
sensons in the Democratic ranks; but | confess see
nothing that portends storm. 1t is natural enough
that should have their preferences and that old
men should be little Jealous OF young men who have
rapidly taken position and become public favorites
but there is nothing in the little PHs of disappointment
and personal vanity that is likely to last beyond the
hor that gentlemen permitted TO speak the Pres
dency when they are debating appropriation Bill in
Committee of the Whole the state of the Union.
Where there is so much power and much weight,
their will naturally be friction, and occasionally a
little warmth that requires cooling down; but what Of
that! The nominations will no sooner be made in Bal
more before the whole Democratic party both wings
and the centre, will move in solid phalanx achieve
splendid victory and wipe the fraud by which Gen
Cass has been defeated in 1S4S. That defeat was a
mere episode in the history of tie Democracy of our
country and we shall not be caught mapping the fall
Of this year.
And where, pray, is the harmony of the Wings?
They afraid of falling out and catching each
other by the cars that they have concluded talk
about principles but they will not be able to avoid il
FOR it is the interest of the Wing party of section OF
country to insist national platform and the Wings
of the other section have neither the courage make
one openly to dissent from any proposition that
may from the other quarter. In this state Of
things, it is sheer nonsense to talk of united wing
party. We have our quarres before the nominations
the troubles Of the Wing party will after the nom-
nations
Mr.. Clay's endorsement Of Mr. Fillmore is not much
liked by the Northern Wings; and there are already
symptoms of rebellion in their ranks which with diff
icuy concealed from the public gaze But they exist
nevertheless, and WILL in due time, produce rich har-
vest.
Gen. Cass has carried all the Delegates from Balti.
more to the State Convention Of Maryland and will no
doubt be the nominee from that State. Judge Doug
las the other hand is making Roadway in Maine in
Virginia. in Vermont in North Carolina and throughout
the whole South. The action of the Louisiana State
Convention is all explained The Douglas men
young Democracy attacked the Buchanan who,
in spite Of all the efforts Of few daring politicians
in lamenable minority, the point of the bayo-
net and drove them clear under the Cass batteries Tn
that position they sought shelter under the guns of the
FORT and were at last admitted as prisoners Of war
Sic transit &c.
Cass is still the lavorte Of the country; but Douglas
is taking every where with the people, and will
whether nominated this time not, be important
man to concilate his friends are scattered in
clusters over the whole Union and constitute every
where most efficient body of young men.
