The Degradation of 1he Norm.

The encroachments of slavery could be
borne with patience, comparatively, were
not the tools for the accomplishment of the
nefarious schemes of the South selected
from the North. No State is forced to drink
deeper of the gall of subserviency than our
neighbor Michigan. Her two Senators are
the impersonation of toadyism. Cas- bows
down to the dictation of his Southern mas
ters even before being hidden. He now
declines to serve as Chairman of the Senate
Committee of Investigation; being afraid to
report against the rufian Brooks. Cass is
a poor, weak old man.
To complete the Michigan Senatorial
dirgrace, Stuart is put forward to offer a
resolution making personalities in debate
''out of order" This is done merely to set
"back fire" against Sumner. No man in
the Senate has been as profuse in his per-
sonalities as Senator Butler, and particularly
so as against Senator Sumner, heaping ali
manner of opproprious epithets on Massa-
chuchetts and her Senator, but without re-
buke from these Northern Locofoco lick
spittles. Now that Mr. Sumner, goaded on
by these attacks, has retorted, and for which
retort has nearly suffered death this Sena-
tor Stuart voluntarially comes forward to
shield the ruffian from the just consequen-
ces of his brutal assault. GeUe Herald

that the principal objections to Mr.. Cramp-

Champion is dismissed.
