1t is surprising TO see the efforts of Greeley of the New
York Tribune to excite bad feeling among the people of
the respective States There sort Of hyena greedness
in his appetite for hatred his columns boil with
ON against all who do within his mephtc
atmosphere His hostility TO the South has become incu-
rable it is longer principle and scarcely a
passion- is an insanity and disease In proportion
this feeling grows upon this strange and illy-organzed
being however his magnity seeks objects nearer home
and now not satisfied with pouring out his hatred upon
the South he assais the States of the North For some
time he has devoted himself the people and the party
jory in New Jersey next he seized upon illinois, and
he is showerng his vulgarities and vituperatons
upon Pennsylvania These States being democratic, Of
course all are fair targets for his bcs What strikes
u.s. however in this exhibition is that whose whole
philosophy is sort of absorbing anaticsm to stir up
bad blood between members Of the family Of repub
licso separate States, North and South by blaze of
inextnguishahle anmositiesto set statesman against
statesman interest against interest brother against
brother-and to go far as TO counsel violence,
all other kinds OF argument falling that such man
should be read and believed should be eulogized and
echoed is by no compliment TO patriotism
The Charleston Mercury says with much force that while
John Quincy lived he was the apostle Of hate Greeley
has taken his place aud though largely deficient in the
great qualities Mr. Adams he surpasses him in the e-
cuudy and in the variety Of his genius in this single par
ticular Adams hated according principle; but
Greeley hates according TO both principle and interest
Adams lost caste by his malignity; but Greeley coins
profits of his calumnes and makes money by his dis
seminaon of talsehoods
