RsnAsxs The above from the
Chicago Journal u characteristic Of a
shcst noted for it, scurrility, and it,
leadcnhip IN every low, Vulgar and ruff
fianly assault upon the private charac-
Ter Of distinguished Democrats. Per-
hsps no man living ever received 20
much personal abuse undeseved, As
Hon. s. A. DouglaA from the Black
Republican journals Of Chicago. The
Journal and its worthy associates in
personal defamation, led on the mob
that denied to Douglas the freedom Of
speech, that he might vindicate the
wisdom Of his policy. These pious
wretches soon after howled with infla
ted lunga over the violence done to the
liberty Of speech by Brooks. They
howled with distressing violence At the
destruction Of the liberty Of speech in
Kansas, and with their hands covered
with the filth Of tyranny towards
Douglas, they condemn in Others what
they practice themselves. Let the
Chicago Journal laugh. 1t is nothing
but joke TO the public and poison
70 the morals Of Society. Breeding
treason against the United States gov
eminent, il laughs. Inciting mobs
against Douglas, it laughs. Taking up
arms and money to supply rebels in
Kansas with means to create civil war
it laughs. Seeing its Co adjutors, the
forty thieves in Congress, plumber the
public treasury by every form Of ven
atty, 1t laugha It laughs when it
nullifes the Supreme Courts decision
in the bred Scott case. It laughs
when the entire north is surging with
angry passions and helps TO swell the
raging storms Of fanaticism in the hope
Of etfecting dissolution Of the Union.
Il publishes whole columns Of false
hood, with IN internal leer, known
only TO tho regions Of sulphur.
1t laughs rs the insane fool laughed
when he was whirliug over the Falls Of
Niagara. But its laugh is hollow, false,
demoniacal. STEPHEN A. DouoLAs is
. giant in intellect, statesman honor
Cd by the great men Of the world, and
feared only BY the plottcrs Of treason
and the demagogues who thirst for
shipwreck and confusion IN govern
ment as afferding them an opportuni-
ty for spoils. Douglas is more like
jackson than any other man living or
dead. His firinness of purpose, his
calm demeauor when the pillows Of
fanaticism rage, and roar, and roll a
round him with terrific force; his in
difference to public applause or public
censure when in the discharge Of stern
duty, his immense mental energy to
combat all the vile Vaccinations ofthe
Seward plottets: and his vast intel
lectual resources in the close conflict Of
Senatorial debate, all point him out as
the greatest man Of the age in which
We live. The brilliancy Of his argu'
nents, and the solidity Of his dcduc'
tions have often extorted ordinations
Of admiration and wonder from Sew
ard and his Republican associates
His power il such, that like Webster
and Clay he must be . leader in all
great political movements Every evil
that threatens disorder to the public,
has been removed by his antidotes.-
He 10 bold in the performance Of duty,
and stops not to patch up comprom'
ice that leaves the old sores to break
out afrcsh. He at once applies the
remedy, and watches the result This
makes him hated and feared. His
ability to meet all complications
threatening anarchy, 10 the bane Of
such treason Matching Journals a the
Journal. Let the Josr~al laugh
The drunkard laughs when in the ago
mica Of death.
