SOUTHERN OPINIONS ON THE SUMNER Our
RAGE.-We devote couple Of columns else
where to extracts from various Southern jour
mails on the Summer outrage. 1t will be no
ticed that the journals connected with and
engaged in the support Of the administration
speak of the outrage in terms Of violence and
brutality that are unexampled unless the
foolishness of the worship that is paid to NJ:
Sumner here by some of his admirers can be
quoted as parallel. Nothing indicates more
forcbly the degradation into which the demo-
cratic politicians and editors of the South have
fallen than the brutal comments that are made
in such journals as the Richmond Inquirer upon
the gross, ungentlemanly, unmanly assault of
Mr. Brooks upon Senator Sumner.
Side by side with these we give list Of ar
ticles, beginning with one from the Louisville
Journal, in reprobation Of the outrage. These
prove that all the Southern journals are no!
lost to sense of decency. While they CON-
mcnt with deserved severity on the violence
Of language used in Mr.. Summers philippe,
they censure the assault in terms quite as
harsh as could be wished.
If the broad common sense of the country
could be heard occasionally, instead of the va
poring Of the politicians and party editors,
we should lead more peaceful life, and such
cases as the Sumner outrage would be speedily
disposed pt.

q treaty on his own responsibility, and in def
snce of an order sending him adrift, we dare
FAY that the duty of pacifcation would have
been transferred to Gen Taylor. The American
people were not Glow in setting aside the
Polk, Marcy and Buchanan administration, and
in promoting ]" old Rough and Ready to the
White House. They would have next pro
NOTED Gen. Scott, but for the malignant perse-
cutions OF Marcy, and other drawbacks not ne.
cessary now to mention.
Fremont still remains, with history more
riotism, bravery, perseverance and unainch-
ing fortitu8e than belong to the career of any
man of his age on this continent. He was the
first man to raise the American flag in Califor-
mia, and the first successfully to defend it with
handful of bis mountain and desert rangers
men accustomed to dog meat, mule coup, aud
cakes made Of grasshoppers. It is to Fremont
that the people of the great West look as to
sort OF Christopher Columbus Of the vast re
gions beyon the Rocky Mountains, that were
as much q mystery as the heart of Africa until
he explored them. Here, then, is the man
with the history, the marvellous adventures,
the stirring fights, the forced marches the
chair breadth escapes, and the active practical
services to the country, to science and to man
kind, for Presidential candidate for the pre-
sent crisis. This ia the man, the same who,
after his distinguished scientific, military and
civil services in California, was brought home
as sprisoner under Folks administration, and
tried for his life upon charges Of mutiny and
other crimes as soldier, because he refused
obedience to two Generals at the same time
General Stockton and General Kearney.
For all these pioneering services of his 10
Kansas, Nebraska, Oregon, New Mexico, Utah
and California, about all that Fremont has Sc
cured is that Mariposa purchase, secured,
however by his own money, and by the
good offices and friendly advice of
former California correspondent Of the New
YORK HERALD, Mr.. Thomas D. Larkin. He
was our correspondents there for years before
the Mexican war, and it is to him that we are
indebted Tor the first sample Of California gold
dust sent to New York. Little did We think,
when we first opened that small sample Of
California gold, that we had before US the
open sesame to the most wonderful financial and
commercial epoch in all the history Of the
world. And The Development of this revolu-
tion, too. may be traced to the dashing enter
prise and activity Of Fremont, as our indie
fatigable pioneer in the great work of the an
nexation of California.
Let George Law and his "Live Oak" Con-
vention consider these things He is the mas
ter Of the occasion and Of the crisis. Let him
take his ground boldly and decisively
against this corrupt spoils and flibustering
dynasty Of Pierce and Marcy, aud proclaim
Fremont as the man. Otherwise we apprehend
the whole game of the opposition will be lost,
steamboats,, railroads, high bridges, niggers,
Know Nothings and all; and that the Cincin-
natl nominee, with all the sins of this admin
isration at his back, will quietly walk over
the course.
