The TribSwcs object is obvious. 1t is to prove
the superior abolition orthodoxy Of iss parsy but
ne sensible man can doubt that the " B's father
and son, and all their fraternity, win bolt back
again into free soil whenever it is their cue. To
this complexion must it come ct last for the whole
Northern loaf is leavened with this perilous stuff;
and whatever the result OF this may be- be-
hind it stalks the revived phantom, only temporarily
laid by the measures of adjustment. aa
Even at the preliminary meetings this subject
rises, as the schism in Massachusetts, proves that
movement was well intended-bul the result shows
the weakness Of the conservative portion of the par
ty therefor it is said that in spite of their seces-
sion and separate organization, they win vote the
regular ticket in which the coLi4ionsts Overruled
them. This ie but one straw out Of many. And
yet sensible men can. be found North and South
who insist that the sgitaton is over, and brand IS
dsturbers Of the public peace all who refuse to hug
their delusion TO their hearts 1t is not over it has
but begun-and the flood that has but recently
swept away the hopes of the husbandman in the
South is but type of that far more fatal flood thar
sweeps down slowly on the doomed people, tide
that> hike the Pfcfontic, knows no ebo The time is
rspidly approaching when those who have shared
the fate OF Cassandra for procainiDg the peril will
be vindSated. though like her doomed to suffer from
the folly and frenzy Of those who would not listen
besd their cry The choice Of Pierce and the tr-
umib Of those with whom he is identified may
throw up temporary bresstwork but the flood will
come. Scott's election would preeipitate it, for it
would give power and patronage TO fellest foes;
but people preserve their liberties who shrink
from sacrifices and suffering, and peril, to maintain
them, even before the foe is at the threshold But
this is DEPRESSION. Return NO to the topic Of the
hour.
| agements on the part Of the wings Il cannot be
| denied that they have since made some Roadway
| and removed somo obstacles. The party has grad
| ualy drawn its members together, healed up some
Of its dissensons and begins to present something
| like united front. He is blind guide who does
not see that the contest is assuming more serious
character, and that it will not be canter over the
course az it looked at one time. The dexterity Of
the managers In keeping the organ of the democracy
and its speakers the defensive has told, and the
result in Vermont has put them in high spirits.
| They now begin to brag loudly about Maine, Ohio,
and even New York. They count largely, and with
reason, the free soil element, and suppose THAI
when Hale takes the stump he win endeavor to pay
| Pierce some old scores. They also claim Louisiana,
and are not hopeless Of Georgia and Florida, Ken
lucky and Tennessee AL that headwork can effect
| they are bent on doing.
The movements of Gen. Cass are no. calculated to
| inspire confidence in the democratic ranks. He
does not stand up to the record Of Pierce and King
at all. In Tammany Hall he made q demagog,cal
exhibition the other day, stripping off coat, vest,
and neckcloth, and making regular subterranean
speech which the Tribune contrasted with the creed
Of his candidate. He came out strongly for the
Free Farm bill, which even Pierces Representatives
Norris and Peaslee, voted against, and his paper,
| the ~. H. Patriot, denounced as a gigantic rob
berry. These things tell badly against the party.
| The wings more consistent in boldly advoca-
ting their schemes of public plumber. such as Har-
Dor and River bile, Homesteads, Sc, unfortunate-
ly but too popular at the North. Hence the unity
of that party there is perfect than that of the
democratic. At the South. however, the harmony
of the democracy seems to have been restored On
the whole, taking a calm survey at this moment,
the chances are decidedly in favor Of the triumph
OF the democracy; but the opposition is whipping
! up, and II may be neck and neck race yet, the
disturbing element OF the third party being take
