This is good letter. and presents the Of the
American party in few bold and mastery touches with

We agree with the Herald that the American par

the Black Republicans and of the Democracy. In
stead of seeing any earthly ground for the boastfu

observation leads Us to believe that the Democ-

A Picture Of Locofocoism.

The Louisville Journal draws graphic and
truthful picture of modern Democracy, maintaining
that its cardinal principle is rddiedlism-exhibit-
Ing itself in utter disregard of the teachings of his
tory and experience-an abiect SubServiency to
King Numbers"-a reckless spirit Of innovation
under the Spccious disguise of progress and ma
neSt destiny"-a disposition to regard the will of
the majority the measure of its power and the
guide of its policy, however much that will" may
be opposed to the letter and spirit of the Constitu
uon--and an arrogant assumption that mnorities
have no rights and may be trsmped on, prescribed
and DISTINGUISHED at pleasure 1t thus shows up the
utter rottenness of the Northern wing Of the Demo-

approved by . meeting Of Democrats themselves,
which is stated to have been "large and respecta-
BILE" Not by the Democratic politicians. however,
is approved but by an assemblage OF De
mocratc people, who have no party objects to pro-
mote nothing but their State and their country to
serve.
Indeed, these thirteen Democrats, who voted
against the bill for the protection of the slave pro
perry Of the State received not the gentest
buke from solitary Democratic paper in the State
Where they did not openly defend or excuse, they
preserved profound silence in reference to their
course Bnt what, we ask, would have been the
probable condition of these editorial gentemen's
nerves, if those thirteen members Of the Virginia
Legislature had been Wings or Americans, instead
of Democratsg Would they not have kept up a
ccaseess din in the ears OF the people as to the
downright Abolitionism OF men, who actually voted
against bill for the pstection of the slave proper
~ of the Statel In short, should we have ever
heard the last Of their reproaches and their denun-
ciationsy Never-never in the world. But those
thirteen recrcant members being Democrats, they
breathe not syllable of censure against them.
But we are gratifed to see that the masses of the
Democratic party have juster appreciation OF the
UBIQUITOUS conduct of the Immortal Thirteen. We
trust the ball may be kept in motion. At all events
we shall anticipate, at the next meeting of the pa
triotic and indomitable Spartans of Richmond, the
adoption of resolution similar in spirit il not in
terms to the published above. Won't the ed-
tor of the Enquirer, always apparently so red-hot
ON the question of Southern rights be the mover Of
such resolution: Prove your faith by your works,
neighbour just once, and pitch into your thirteen
creant brethren
