err Well, We will make from the speech Of
Brooks this extract, which will serve rs some
indication Of the real spirit of the man, and
pretty surely establish the fact that his ruff
fan reputation is we'll earned and well de-
served. In speaking Of the army bill, he
said
''IIe rather wished the army appropria-
ton bill would not pass, because it would Of :

man, drawn by himself.
lie goes on to discuss the subject of the
Presidency. He thinks buchanan is Just the
man for him and those of his kidney and
we think so too. But in case Fremont is
elected they are going to do great things, =
or rather they ought, for he don't speak
quite SO confidently as to what they tria do.
Hear him:
"On the second Monday Of November next
the great question would be decided For
his part, If Fremont, the traitor to his sec
ton, should be successful, it was his delib-
crate opinion that on the fourth Of March
next the people Of the south should rise in
their might, march TO Washington, seize the
archives and the treasury of the government.
We should anticipate them, and force them
to attack us"
What Brooks thinks tho South ought to
do, and what the mass Of the Southern peo-
pic may actually undertake to do, may not
exactly tally with each other. But in any
event, such thing as that is ''easicr said
than done" When Fremont is inauyurated,
on the 18th Of March next, there will be sew
era people in Washington, and among them
right smart chance" of Republicans.
CoSGREsslosM CAUSE.-THE Republicans
have so far gained all the members of Con-
gress that it was possible to gain, viz; one in
Iowa md one in Maine. Both states now
have full Fremont delegations. Wisconsnand
Michigan will leave out their only Buchaneer
each Ut the next election, We have no doubt,
while We shall make other gains in Indiana
and Pennsylvania, aud hold our own in
Ohio, New York. and in the balance of the
Northern states where the delegations are
divided. We think it certain that there
will be ma jority Of clear and staunch Re-
pnblicans over all opposition in the next
House, if the North do not indeed, as friend
suggests, ''clearits entire delegation as clean
of doughfaces ~ Ireland is of snakes and
toad,."
WISCONSIN oS kASsAs.--An extra session
Of the Wisconsin Legislature convened on
the 9th instant. Among other things, Gov.
Bashford's Message recommends the consid-
GRAFTON Of measures for the protection Of
citizens Of Wisconsin in the Territory Of
Kansas. lie says that since the adjourn
ment Of the Legislature, intelligence has
reached him from reliable sources that many
citizens Of Wisconsin, who had not expatri-
ascd themselves, but had gone to Kansas for
lawful purposes, had been seized, robbed
and Imprisoned, and their lives ieopardized
by the people OF Missouri. Coy. Bashford
adds
s'outrages Of this nature have become so
frequent that deem it my duty to call your
attention TO them, that you may devise legal
measures to protect the citizens of Wiscon-
sin and redress their grievances the General
Government being either impotent or will
fully neglected. to do so.''
GOV. Bashtord is man Of the right stamp.
lie knows the Ruihans well. lie beat them
out at home, and now he means that the cit-
zens of WISCONSIN, at home or in Kansas.
shall be protected against them, in their lives
and their property, if he can do or suggest
any thing for their protection and support.
