IN some comments yesterday on Bully Brooks
ovston at Nint'y-SI, we remarked that the FORMS
ton Of the Republican party and the ncminaaon of
Fremont. 80 far from beng the cause Of the Aunion
sentiments now so freely avowed st the South,
were only an occasion improved for attempting TO
carry into execution design long since formed to
dissolve the Union. Were these disunionsts de-
priyed by the dsbaniment Of the Republicans and
the withdrawal Of Fremont Of this Pretense, they
Vould not be long in finding smother.
This view Of the case is amply borne ont By the
statements Of Bully Brooks himself in the very
speech from which we quoted. Says Brooks:
I'm 1850 told my friends-and il was the DULY
prophecy Of mine that ever was fulhllcd-thai they
need not be alarmed about an issue that issues would
come o. fast as blackberrics in the SprnStlme ana
stronger ones than we bad then. De,

Brooks proposes 10 vote for Buchanan, not " tn

Bully Brooks is obliged to vote for Buchanan, just
as he was obliged in the Burlmgame case to back
out of bis own challenge. What he wants, what
be- desires is to dissolve the Union at once: but that
be don't dare undertake. 1t is not rifle bullets and
Northern cons,abes merely that he is afraid OF; ne
has no fancy for dancing in the air with helnpen
rope for a neck.te. So be concludes to vote for
Buchanan, and meantime, lie in wait for safe
opportunity as we'll for dissolsing the Union with
out personal risk to himself as for silly and unex
pectedly knocking Mr.. Burlingsme on the head
Such appears TO be the state of mind not only of
Bully Brooks himself but of Bully Toonbs and the
whole congregation assembled ii Ninety-Sx, every
one of whom seems to have BEEN like Brooks, fore
gone and determined dsunioDist. II thus appears
as if the cancer of 1888, which Gen. Jackson was
ready to cut out, having been left by Nr. Cay's too
great tenderness for the patient TO grow has become
more and more malignant. The humoring treat
ment certainly does not cure it, 1t has been kept
froll breaking out into running sore, during the
last four years, only BY allowing the Nulliiiers to
ill large portion Of the most responsible Offices,
and to control the policy of the Government. 1t IL
now proposed to apply in Buchanan another poul-
tce Of the same sort. But that will only prolong
the agony. Why not let the tester burst at once,
and the collected pus run Outl With only Bully
Brockses to issue out Of it, We rather think the
Union might survive, especially with The Commer-
cal Adrertiser for sick nurse.
