New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1858-05-04

Freedom, TIL. Herald, having rated to Buchanan
the moment Fremonts defeat was inevitable, has
been promoted to the station of marshal in
the Pro.Slavery camp, and is now intently engaged
in doing execution upon those Democrats who have
refused to join in either bullying or bribng Kansas
TO come into the Union Slave State. See with
what JUNCTION the last convert to Sham Democracy
performs bis new, cOngenial functions:
In accepting the bill of Mr.. English, the Admins
tIatOn has gone half way to recall the Douglas de-
serers to their allegiance and those who have con-
temptuously refused this generous peaceoerng have
lost all claims to any further exercise of mercy or
magnanimity from the recognized head OF the party
church.
"These ntrsctabe Douglas renegsdes include the
following Members of Congress: OF the Senate
Messrs Douglas Of Illinois Stuart of Michigan, and
BrOderick of California. OF the House-Messrs. Har-
ris, Marshall, Morris, Shaw and Smith, the whole
Illinois Democratic delegation; Chapman, Hickman
and Montgomery of Pennsylvania Adrain of New
Jersey, Davis of Indiana, McKibbin Of California
and Clark and Haskin Of New-York. Among the
Democratic outside allies Of MIR. Douglas we may
mention Ex-Governor Walker and e1 Secretary STAN
ton Of Kansas, Governor Wise of Virginia, the Rev.
George Bancroft, and the Able McMaster OF New
York, and the unhappy Col. Forney OF The PhiLddet
phi0 Press, as the most conspicuous among the Dem
ocratic anti-Lecompton agitatng mutineers And now
the question recurs, what should be done with these
men They have refused the generous eace-ofering
Of the Administrations they 10 active cooperation
with the enemy; they are entitled to little or no
mercy; they appear to be bent upon doing all the
mischief they can-what should be done with them
"The usual course in such cases, under the rules
and articles of war; is to bring the iucurabe deserters
and runswsys from the field of battle before drum
head court martial, condemn them, and march them
off TO be shot. We apprehend however, that in this
list of Kansas mutineers there may be some with
whom mlder policy than gunpowder would be expe'
dent. Respecting the chief cOnsplrator, Douglas We
in hfa
case is out of the question. The same perhaps, may
be said of Walker, Stanton, Senator Brodenck, am a
few others. OF ell men, Broderick has been the most
violent and vulgar in his personal abuse OF the piesi-
dent ard evidently the most malignant in his hostnty
to the Administration. He should be made an exam
pie of without further loss of time
The animus of all this is clear, but How to do it
is serious question. There is Senator Broderck,
for instance, who is fixed in Office not only for Mr..
Buchanans full term, but for two years from and
after its close. What sort of an example" can
you make of him! He is certainly very plain
spoken with regard to the LecOmpton fraud, its
authors and hackers; but how do you propose to
cure him of this habit
:" II looking oeli can't move her,
Unlocking III prevail
If you say, Deprive him Of all influence or voice
in filling the Federal Offices in California we an.
swer. You did that before he said word against
Lecompton; you can treat him no worse in this
respect now than you did then. What sort of
example" then, can you make of him.
As to Messrs. Douglas and Stuart their term
expires with the present Congress, and the chance
of administering party discipline to them would
,eem to be far better. 1t happens however, that
their constituents are decidedly hostile to the Ad-
miDistration as well as to LecOmptOn, and would
like nothing better in their Senators than to be sure
that they are obnoxious to "the powers that be-"
Only let Illinois and Michigan fully understand that
their Senators are profoundly obnoxious to Blu.
chsnan and the Slavery extending Olgarchy, and
nothing could prevent their reelection. If Messrs
Douglas and Stuart fail of reelection, it will be
because they are presumed by their constituents
not thoroughly weaned from their devotion 10
Slave Democracy If The Herald wants to make
an example" OF them by comprising their defeat,
it should set to praising them as, after ALL pretty
good Democrats, who will be all right on Lecomp-
ton in a month or two, and get puff or two of
their ultimate orthodoxy Inserted in The UaiOn.
If that does not suffice, let "Old Buck" say q
good word for them, and they will be ruined past
redemption.
