The Buchanan Democracy OF south Caroline
on the Present Crisis Which Is the DIS
union Party.
Which is the disunion party? We publish this
morning mass of evidence upon the subject, in
the proceedings at 1.-The grand banquet and pre-
sentaton to Preston 5. Brooks, got up by his con-
stituents of the Fourth Congressional district Of
South Carolina which took place on Friday
last, at Ninety-six depot, near the western border
Of the State. TO our st!ll ineredulous Buchanan
democratic readers (be they many or few who
are struggling hard 20 comfort themselves with
the vain delusion that the Fremont party is the
disunion party. We especially commend these de
mocratic doings among the Southern democratic
chivalry in behalf of Mr. Brooks and Mr.. Blu
chanan.
The festival, it will be seen, was perfect jubi
lee with the constituents Of Mr.. Brooks. Had he
returned crowned with victory from the expul-
dAa Of fore4 invader from the city OF Charles
tn, be could scarcely have been received with a
more enthusiastic welcome, and all for that
bloody savage and revolving assault upon de-
fenceless member writing AZ his desk in the Sc
nate Chamber OF the United States! The chair
man at this peculiar South Carolina ovation, an
nouDced the exercises in honor Of Mr. Brooks in
the following osder-frst, the congratuiatory ad-
dress OF Gen. MCGOWAN; second, a gold goblet,
from the citizens Of Abbeville; bird, a
silver goblet, plated with gold on the
inside, from the citizens Of the imme-
date vicinity, who claim the honor OF living
near tie homestead Of Mr. Brooks; thirdly,
stick made by the citizens Of Laurens, near
Clinton; fourthly, another stick, from a former
citizen Of South Carolina, row q resident OF
Florida filthy, a speech from Mr.. Brooks;
sixthly speech from Senator Toombs, Of Geor
cia; seventhly, the dinner; and after the dinner,
more speeches
From the beginning to the end Of this splendid
programme, it will be seen that iulsome conpli-
meDts to Brooks. and those leading principles Of
the Buchanan democracy-niggers, notification,
disunion ard treason-are tremendously blended
together Mr.. Brooks IL exalted IS the "good
and faithful servant 1.-The guardian angel
Ithuriel," immortal in history as Ar.stdes,"
"our gallant representative eight hundred
miles towards the Falls Of Niagara Clifton
House, in Canada anxiety overbalanced by
admiration" Buchanan aud Breckinrdge-
Kansas and Brooks grateful and proud South
Carolina welcome, sir. welcome back"
welcome, sir, thrice welcome beautiful COB
Ct" pure gold" "enblcmatic Of the proud
spirit it is given 10 uphold" this cane" in
:eription, Use knock down arguments" DC,
were the staple Of Gen McGowans address, who,
IN this happy effort has quite eclipsed Gen.
Quattlebum Then followed the GROWING feature
of the day-ihe speech of Mr.. Brooks himself
great speech Of the kind al amiabe, modest,
graceful and selfcomplacent speech, charged
brinfu OF The sweet elements of treason, disunioa
ard civil war.
How refreshing to our Northern Buchanan de-
mocracy il must b., Just at this time, TO read this
consol.ng speech Of their lucky Southern cham
pou, Mr.. Brooks whose gold and silver goblets
and canes, and Other democratic presents, would
make a little museum Of modern democratic
principles Lucky, lucky Mr.. Brooks--how for
tGnate that be- comes IN to the rescue of Mr. Bu-
chanan just in the nick Of time lie gives Us the
pure cream of thai rich Southern nulliHcaton
democracy Of which Nr. Buchanan IL the stand
ard bearer lie says that the best thing for his
democratic constituents TO do, i just to tearup
the constitution Il the United States, tranpe il
under foot and form Southern confederacy,
every State Of which will be a slaveholding
State lie says that " the only hope Of the
South Il In dissolving the boads which connect u
with the goseumcns-in SEPARATING the living
body from the dead carcase;' and with these de-
claraticns, he says. They gave no James Bu.
chanan,' and shall support him cordially.
But llr. Brooks i by 10 means confident Of
the election OF James Buchanan" lie think.
" il probable that John &. Fremont may b. the
next President" in which event Mr. Brook
fatty declares, Il am for tie people, in their ma
jcsty. rising above the Law aud leaders, taking
ne power into their own hands, going by concert
or not by concert, aud laying the strong arm OF
Southern frcemen upon the treasury and archives
Of the government"
Now, if thisis not preaching treason, armed r.
bellion, disunion and civil war we should like to
know what is. Mr.. Brooks down to this bloody
Sumner affair, bore the undisputed character of a
high toned, educated, generous and amiable
Southern gentleman. But the whole nature Of
the man was changed by the debaucheries and
shocking demoralizatiors Of his party under this
infamous Pierce administration. Thus. that indie
feasible assault upon Sumner was not dictated by
the instincts Of Mr.. Brooks, the amiable and gen
rous gentleman; Il was done by Mr.. Brooks
the misguided representative of that fierce and
