And who are to conduct the ceremony
Of ostracsm? Who is to WELD the axe Of
decapitation? We are told that the exc
cuioners are selected and eager for their
work.
They are JOHN COCHRANE, Of
New York, aided by A. II. STEPHENS,
Of Georgia, in the one branch, and r. A.
TOOMBS, Of Georgian the other branch.
These three chiefs of the ostracising policy
are able men; but Cochrano is especially
qualified for his task, having voted against
General Cass in 1e4S, on the grounds Of
the pro-savery tendency of the Democra'
CIV; while Messrs. Toombs and Stephens
came over to our ranks at much later
period, we believe in 1852, and are duly
fitted, by nature and by prejudice, to take
off Democratic heads.
Hon. JOHN VAN buren,, aided by
the New York Herald, will assist in these
sanguinary ceremonies. The Herald wields
an irresistible weapon, and after using it
with so much effect to destroy Mr.. Bu-
charan in 1856, even to the most mon
strous assaults upon his personal character,
is fit instrument of vengeance upon his
friends.
So much for the principles in this grand

Will Mr.. FLORENCE, of our first dis
trict, read out all his constituents, and there
are a few of them, who oppose his vote
for the Lecompton wrong!
Or will Mr.. PHILIPS, Of the third
district, wave among his constituents his
exterminating sword upon all who differ
from him?
Will Mr.. LANDY expel all his constit.
uents, who oppose his course in favor OF
Lecomp!on, from the Democratic party!
Will J. CLANCY JONES, Of Berks,
issue his mandate of accommodation to a
people who came so near defeating him
only few years ago?
How is it to be effected! Are the
and tens Of thousands and hun
dreds of thousands of Democrats against
this fraud to be driven out by the minor
ity, the exceptional collectors, postmasters
revenue agents, contractors, Jobbers, and
courtiers? Or is the army to be introdu
