tFrom the e. Louis Nsvsl
Tho insanity Of Old Brown IN suppos-
ing that with nineteen white men and Eve
negroes he could overthrow the United
States Government, libcrate all the slaves
in the South, and establish a Provisional
Government, with himself and Cabinet
Of equal fanatics at tho head Of Affairs,
was desperate beyond all human expert
enoe. But deploruble and desperate as
his folly was, Il Ii even exoelled by the
foolish madness cf the editors Of those
journals published IN siauca0ldiHQ States
that are trying 10 make Il appear that the
Republican party Of the country is res
ponsible for Old Browns deeds, and that
they symputhize with the failure Of his
murderous aims
As we observed, tho other day, To Re
publican party pelled in the late Proiden-
tial campaign over ,300,OO0yotes. The
patty has steadily increased since, and
would now, no doubt, pbll 500, 900 votes.
II Is unquestionable, and the returns 60
the next Congress indicate Il, that every
Free State in the Union, save two or
three, has sided irrevocably with The Re-
publican party, and there Is no ebb 20 the
tide that bears public sentiment in he Free
States foirdrds the principles of the Repub
liedn party, he only one Of lohich affecting
Slavery Is, hat Il shall not Be erteRded iR-
to Territories or Staies already free.
Not a single organ Of the Republican
party has yet failed to condemn and exc
crate the reasonable madness Of Old
Brown. No member Of the Republican
party, from one end of the Union to the
other, has spoken a word Of sympathy for
his murderous designs. Such being the
fact, patent 10 all men, we ask, what but
the most amazing madness on the part of
Southern partizAns and Southern news
papers can lead them TO charge tbe
Republican party of the country, and is
million and a half Uoiers, with completely
with the horrible crimes Of iRsurreeii0R,
treason, rape, arson, and murder Does
not every member Of the Republican par
ty know in his heart, that this charge Is
an doegrssd lie; and will the million and a
half voters Of that party be so complais-
ant as TO change their politics or quit vo-
ting because Of these base libels on their
character by Damocratio-partizan prints
We know better than this. The world
knows better And the result will prove
that'a party when aggravated by insult
GndcoRtumely is rendered far more formid-
able than when lulled TO peacefulness by
the just dealings Of an honorable and gem
erous adversary.
What will be the end Of these insane
libels, circulated through the SlAveholding
States by Democratic printsl Why, this:
They will not convert the Republican par
ty. They will not stay lis present trium-
phant march. They will not prevent its
ousting the National Democracy from Fed
erql power, and installing, we trust, con-
servative Statesman, like Bates or Bell, In
the Presidency. But when this happens,
what shall we sec In those slaYeholdiDg
communities where the insane libels Of
these Democratic prints have circulated
The newspapers will have told the slaUs
that the triumph Of the Republican party
viii be the signal Of their deliverance
from bondage I They will have assured
the servile race that the arms and power
Of the United States Government will, In
Republican hands, be used in their be-
half in a last grand conflict with their
masters
The credulous and doomed creatures
will believe il all-sad, fatal, beli-borR lie
though IL be--and they will dance with
frenzied joy around their camp-fros some
night, and meet dreadful and extermin-
ating slaughter before the setting Of the
next days sun
Such is the solution Of the Slavery ques-
tion that the Democratic organs and par
tizans have provided, by their desperate
libels on a majority Of the independent
voters Of the Union If these madmen
do not bathe the South in the blood Of a
SeJ-ereGted servile insurrection, Il will be
becase the triumphant Opposition Of 1860
interposes 70 sHPprsss ssrUils outbreaks,
and TO preserve the guarantees ofthe Con-
stitutlon and the Union, in regard to Slave
ry, by all the powers Of the Federal Gov
ernment.
