The PIRATICAL PARTY.

We give q few items concerning the murderous
piratical party of this nation which styles itself
democratic, to conceal its diabolical nnd bloody
purposes:
HERBERT AND HIS sYMPATHYsERs.-This murder
er, Herbert, has resumed his seat in Congress, and
has made a speech since his a%cquittal, On taking
his seat in the House, says the Tribune, she re-
ceived the congratulations of his Democratic
friends, as though a party triumph had been
achieved by his acquittal of a homicide" And
why should not the party congratulate this MUIR
dcrer on his escape from punishment. The party
is itself n murderous party. Tho blood of scores
of men slain in Kansas is on its hands. 1t takes
this acquittal of Herbert as a earnest of its own
%impunity in guilt. 1t has the blood of thousands
OF innocent slaves on it's skirts, and is roveling in
the price of its completely in the guilt of their
murder. 1t hopes aud labors to continue to per.
petuate this crime of murder in the States and in
Kansas and therefore cxults over the IMMUNITY of
Herbert as an omen of its wholesale success
when the wicked bear rule, the people mourn"
There is mourning in store for the people Of this
nation.

Mr.. Senator Toombs has been writing to o Vir-
ginia friend the following letter;
"WAsnrNGroN, D. G. July s., 1856.
DEAR SIR: | received your letter of the LIST inst.
together with its enclosures. Your letter to the
London Times has become unnecessary, as YOU
will perceive from the present state of the ques-
tons discussed and, beside, it is altogether too
complimentary to mo, for me to have any agency
III sending 1t. AS | supposed, when | wrote you,
public opinion in England is right in regard to our
difficulties, and has made itself felt in Parliament;
and even the great Thunderer (The Tines feels
and bows to it. Our danger is nat from abroad, ii
end Of the Union, and ought 10 be. THE object of
ErentohtS friends is tie conquest Of the South, /
am content that they shall oWn as vhen then conquer
as, 6ut not before.
Respectfully yours, r. TOOMBS.
Mr.. BUCHANAN ON THE Brooks AssAULr.-At
the recent Annual Commencement of Franklin

buchanan was present. The following incident,
in which Mr.. buchanan appears, is related by the
correspondent of the 1ri1lRe.

patriotism OF the Republic, and denounced the de-
generate political huckstors of the present day,
who make all kinds of sycophantic promises 10 all
parties and portions for the country for even A
by a Convention, no matter how cor
rupt or regardless of political integrity. $50
trucking in their characters and destitute Of moral
courage and political integrity that men are found
who applaud the attack Of Canine Brooks upon tho
noble Sumner for defending Freedom"
During the delivery of this sentence the whole
house was still as death, and at its close it was
heartily applaudcd. Mr.. Davis finished his Grafton

ders OF applause, and showers of bouquets from
his lady iriends. For him it was truly u triumph.
But on returning to his seat, next to that of MIR.
