TALK OF EXPHCTANT mAsTEltS.
- 49,
We have frequently taken occasion 10 present to
our readers specimens Of the language tho arch Abo
itoniss indulge 10 when speaking Of slavery or the
soath. The subjoined extract from The report OF q
spesch delivered BY Mr. Wide. Of Ohio in the United
States Senate on The Lecompton Constitution, il
something more than fair average sample OF the style
in which the principal Black Republican leaders lay
down the law which Is to govern in future
aHe said that Northern men who were true to the
traditions OF their fathers much prescribed by
the Government. as alien enemies could be. But the
lSout shonId understand that she has no strength ia
the North, but among the Migrants and ofscourings
Of society. The free aborers OF the North he exto
led; they never would come down TO the level OF
saves-of abject chattes. II is true there were in
some Of the cities Of the North, degraded men, igno
rant and vicious. Bot the South should not despse
them, for it was those oscourings Of society that
were the cornerstone of her political strength in the
North. They were attached to Southerners by a
sympathy Of similar natures. Our views of Govern
ment 70 the North, continued the Senator, as an
tagonistic with reference to those Ia the South as
they can well be. he did not know what would be
The end OF this controversy. Referring 10 the Texas
resolutions relative to Kansas, he said that for one
ne would not vote any more supplies whatever to
that State until she apoogized or gave satisfactory
explanation for those resolutions He had no appre-
hension OF a dissolution Of the Union. Such CON
summation needed something more than conventions
aud stronger than resolutions. Te North and South
were welded forever there could be no divorce of
the South from her Master and her Lord and she
had TO make the best of bad bargain
We agree with Senator Wade that the South " has
no strength in the North or at least, but very tIe
and that little is continually decreasing in vitality
and will probably die out altogether within very
brief period. The Migrants and offscouriugs Of
society," alluded to by the Senator we have no use
for and would not command their political influence
i we could. They will probably follow their satural
instincts; and will, consequently, enlist under the
black, mean and dirty banner. proudly borne aoft
by the Senator from Ohio, II it was an insignia OF
honor instead Of being an emblem of inerrsdicshle
disgrace. II they don't do that. they will commence
sgitatng the division OF property question in the
North, before the lapse of great many years, there
is too much reason TO apprehend. This is no idle
suggestion. There are thousands and tens Of thou
sands in the principal Northern cities who hold to the
doctrine Of the Freach radical, that property is
robbery no matter how worthy acquired, and that
it, possessor is, therefore, criminal deserving CON
dign punishment. The cry of " bread or blood has
been heard more than once in New York, and for
weeks last winter the wealthy denizens Of that
metropolis felt serious apprehensions of mob plum
der, mob outrages, mob spoiation and mob seques-
augmenting In numbers and strength and should
severe winter, or want, or any other sufficient stimu
liant ncite them to desperate action there is grave
ground to fear repetition Of the worst scenes OF the
worst French revolution Somebody will have to be
spoiled aud pundered and if the South escapes the
probabilities are that men like Senator Wade aud bis
co-adjutors will be the first 10 feel the desolatng
effects Of the appalling fury of the aforesaid myrads
OF Migrants and of scourings of society,"" Men like
Seward, Wade and Greeley, and the rest, will have
little right to complain ii their property il wrested
from them by violence. Occupying high influential
and responsible Positions they have preached and
plotted and worked to violate the laws Of the land,
and TO bring into disrepute the supreme judicial tri
buna Of the confederaey They have transformed
the crime Of theft into vlrtue-have protected ard
harbored theyes-a and have encouraged their people
to depredate upon the territory Of their neighbors
This they have done with their eyes wide open,
having all the advantages Of education, intelligence
aud experience Hence, there is no excuse for them
comparatively speaking; not thousandth part as
much as there will be for their swarming scores of
thousands OF Migrants and oscourings OF society,"
It the latter, pnched by privation and want, should
reduce to practice the doctrines Of the higher-law
men OF the North and commence the work of plum
der at home instead OF going to the South
The concluding sentences Of the extract from Mr..
Wade's speech are entitled to deep consideration.
Senator Wade is no ordinary man. He ia able, cour-
ageons anatical and determined. He represents the
third State of the Union in point of population and
political power. His state is thoroughly welded to
Abolition, so much SO that the few wise and conser-
yatige men left there. have lost all hope Of her re-
demption. And he is the master.spirit of the move
ment and the leader of the Black Republican party
in Ohio, and no doubt expects one OF these days to
be Freesoil candidate for the Presidency OF an un
divided coniederacy Hence the sentences referred to
possess Significance of peculiar character, show
ing iarsghtedness, insatiate ambition and determn
alton on the part OF their utterer We suhoin them
in order that public attention may be douby riyeted
1.-THE North and the South were welded forever
there could be no dieoree of the South from HsR
MAsrER and HRR LORD, and she had 10 make the best
of bad baygainn
Senator Wade evidently does not wish to be Presi.
dent Of a Northern Republic He wants the whole
continent to preside over He ia determined the
South shall not escape from oppression II he can pre-

and her lord and shall forever remain her master
and her lordi' II such prove the case may Con

to serve such lords and masters The tyranny of
Austria would be million fold preferable to such

Well, probably, Mr.. Wade will learn in due season,
that our people will insist upon having something to
say as well as TO do about the time the selection OF
