ment with himself and Cabinet of equa

Geplorable and desperate SIS his folly was,
it is even excelled by the foolish madness
Of the Editors of thofe journals puJliSAtd
in Sovehoiding Stalls that are trying to
make it appear that The Republican party
of the country is responsible for Old
Browns deeds and that they sympathize
with the failure ofhs murderous aims!
As we observed , the other day. the Re-
publican party pollid in the late Presiden-
tia campaign over ! 800, 900 voes. The
party has steadily increased since, and
would now, no dbubt, poll 1,5oO, 900
votes. 1t is unquetionable, and the re-
turns to the next Cqngress Indicate it, that
every Free State in the Union, save two or
tnfpe, has 6iltu IL iNfoChDly WIN .H6 Ne
publican party, and there is no ebb to the
tide that bears public sentiment in the
Free States toward, the principle of the
Republican party, he only one Of which
affecting Slavery is, that 1t shall not be
extended into Territories Or States aIread y
free. ..
Not single organ of the Republican
Party has yet failed to condemn and to
execlate the reasonable madness of Old
B.own. No member Of the Republican
party, from one erd of the Union TO the
other, has spoken Il WORD of sympathy for
his murderous designs. Such being the
fact, patent to all men, we ask, what but
the most amazing madness on the part of
tie Southern newspapers can lead them to
charge the Republican Party ofthe country,
and its million and half voters, with
completely with the horrible crimes of in
surrection, treason, rape, arson and mar
ders Does not every member of the Re-
publican Party know in his heart, that this
charge is an accursed he; and will the mill
lion and half voters of that party be so
compaisant as to change their nolitics or
quit voting because Of these base libel on
their character by Democratic par,isan
prints? We know better than this. The
world knows better. And the.result will
prove that party when aggravated By in
suit and contuneiy is rendered far more
formidable than when lulled to peaceful
ness by the Just dealings of an honorable
and generous adversary. a
What will be the end of these insane IL
bells, circulated through the Slaveholding
States by Democratic prints? Why thisl
They will not convert the Republican
Party. They will not stay its present
triumphant march. They will not pre-
vent its .ousting the National Democracy
from Federal power, and installing, we
trust, conservative Statesman, like Bates
or Bell. in the Presidency. But when
thi. happens, what shall we see in those
communities where the in
sane libels of these Democratic prints have
circulated? The newspapers will have
told the Slaues that the triumph of the
Republican Party will be the signal of
their deliverance from bondage! They
will have assured the servile race that the
arms and power of the United States Gov
ernment will, in Republican hands, be
used in their behalf in a last grand conflict
with their masters. i
The credulous and doomed creatures
will believe it all sad, fatal. hell born lie
though it be.-and they will dance with
lrenzied Joy around their camp fires some
night, and meet q dreadful and extermina-
ling slaughter before the setting of the
next days sum-
Such is the solution. Of the slavery ques-
