A BROAD FARCE.


The most comical thing now extant is tho
national democracy. A contemplation Of its
beauties is enough to throw the whole nation
into broad guffaw. See its lohyPrctensiOn
to be the national party, and then mark its
numbers small and growing beautifully less.
The oflicehOlders with hanger on or two
apiece mako the sum total. A school boy
who has not learned to carry for ten might
count them in any town or city. Observe
how Indignantly it scouts sectionalisn,, and
then hear its southern members threatening
at every turn to dissolve the Union. Hear
it Illuminating its thuuders against Douglas,
and then see it ground to powder between
him and the Republicans, as between the
upper and neither milestone. Hear it Ia
menting the cruelties of the slave trade in
Presidents Message, and then in tho next
breath wanting to annex Cuba, Mexico and
Central America, only to make them great
marts for slaves. Soc il attempting to force
slave constitution on Kansas, and then
fizzling out with the English contrivance,
and see even that spit on by the people Of
Kansas.
Truly it is not easy to tell whether this
national democracy, with Buchanan at its
hoad, is more wicked or more ridiculous
1t would fain commit great crimes, but its
imbecility hindcrs. Tho will is not want
ing, but the power is gone. Is it possible
that any considerable number of northern
men can be whecdlod again with this shall
low namo of national democracy! Tho
game will nssuredy be played again at the
next Presidential election. 1t is like the
sharp of thousand strings" it is never out
of tune aud will play any thing you may
desire. Douglas is already fiddling away
tremendously on the old harp. He hopes
to fiddle himself into the presidential chair
with this music. All through his latO SON
atorial campaign, and his journey south, he
has kept his harp of a thousand strings in
full play. Every string has squeakcd
shriekod and yehSd scctionalism, sectional
ism. 1t will be marvellous indeed if another
national democrat mounts the presidential
throne with tho old harp under bis arm.
