A Red Republican upon storms and Blood
shed.
Since Mr.. Greeley has held levee in a
Partisan prison, his journal seems inspired
with carnivorous spirit, and thirsts for some
more summary manner Of carrying out its
philosophical principles than the bsllot-box.
recent article Of this blood-thirsty journal
is headed 90 The storm is coming" Follow
ing the example of its Gallcan predecessors,
the cry is raised Of Death to the Aristocrats,"
and the self-working Democracy" Of the
United States are summoned to the standard,
with stirring appeal to their prcjudices
against what is termed :" the slaye-drivipg
olgarchy." ga great revolution is inevita-
blc." II has been caused by the Browning
outrage" Of Kansas, and will not be postponed

logical metaphor, comparing the "political
earth" to "a WORKOUT and abandoned Vir-
GINA tobacco plantation There is no such
thing KNOWN dried, baked, scorched, and
scourged \" under the brazen sky Of slavery"
Then the sky grows blacker and blacker."
In the North, the East and the West, clouds
are piling upon clouds "There is to be a
storm, not doubt Of it." But this yalorous
philosopher will welcome the rain, even
though it may chance TO wet US to the skin;
and so will every man who fully deserves to
be called man. All this is strictly vege
tartan figure, and gernane to those ponderous
columns upon agriculture, with which the Tri-
bune enlightens the public upon the time and
terms Of potato planting, or the immediate ex-
tinction Of the cotton-plant by the flax culture.
We can fairly see the potatoes grow under
this description Of the storm, and If the editor
shall DO "wet to his skin" it will no doubt add
to his personal publication, and promote the
fertility Of the soil which surrounds him. Bat
the storm becomes too fearful for the nerves of
any, except brave men. "On such occasions"
we are told, women will faint and the sort
of men ESQ called Of whom dough-hces are
made will turn pale" "There Is something
fearful to such, even in the distant mutterings
Of the thunder" Tho commanders of the
Tribune are, however, of that fearless class
who can listen unmoved to war of elements,
especially when it makes their potatoes grow,
and gaze upon flowing blood with perfect
equanimity, always provided 1t be not their
own or that Of their colored allies. For these
yaunts Of extraordinary desperation do not
come well from the organ of him of whom his
biographer records, that when gun was to
be fred he threw himself upon the ground,
and stuffed grass into his ears" to deaden
the report, and who could not attend Fourth
Of July through fear Of gunpowder.
But all this malevolent tumble about storms
and revolutions means mischief and it is our
duty to warn such Of our friends as really love
the Union, although they may have preudices
against the institution Of slavery, that they may
not become the victims Of plot far moro dan
gerous to the cause Of human happiness than
that which terminated in the chopping off
the head Of an imbecile king, and libcrating
the right and energies Of the French nation.
There is little doubt wepresume, that the Tri-
bunc is the organ Of a deliberate scheme TO
break up this Union, and to form confederacy
composed Of few New England States and
her most maternal Msjesty's dominions Of Can
ada, and islands adjacent The public mind
has been prepared for this, by systematic at
tempt to excite the hostility Of one section
against another. The Union has been proven to
be oppressive and Improbable TO the Northern
States. The law Of the Union has been sus-
pended by the invocation Of higher law. The
Northern States have been shown to be the
slaves Of the Southern; and last, yet not least
significant, we have been told that the question
Of Catholicism in its influence upon our political
interests, of Alienism and its influx ofmillons
--ofreformation in the proscriptive and corrupt
administration ofour government are all "sub.
ordinate" to the question of determining upon
the future institutions of unborn and unsettled
Territories Under this view Of the subject il
is Of course better that the purists Of the party
should assimilate with Canada, where there is
merely an established religion, an order Of no
bility, and milder type of monarchy, than to
incur longer the crime Of associating with, or
submitting to "the slave-brccding oligarchy, "
whose reign is so oppressive, and whose con-
tact is contamination.
We have no doubt that It IL the temporary
purpose Of this party to obtain possession Of
the government, by an appeal TO the preudi-
ces of numbers. This will pave the way to
a law Of universal abolition, or separate or
ranzation Of the Provinces and States to
which we have referred.
But we warn our friends to watch this in
sidous design to entrap them. The first as
