men from the United States, ssextendinr
the area of freedoin,1 performing John
Brown raids, entering upon general inVa-
sions to set humanity right, when the gal
! liant old tar, Commodore PAulding received
| instructions, if lie caught Walker to bring
him home. The old fellow thought the
President of the United States meant what
he said, and he went out, ordered his ma
ual, and what did the President say2 Why
said he, 81 have a great notion to dismiss
you from the service. You are adamn'd
old fool" Laughter. "Did not tell
you, Commodore, at Ostend, before be-
came candidate of the Southern Demo-
cracy, that we wanted Cuba, and we
would buy it if we could, and if Spain
would not sell it we would take it in any
way; and do you suppose that when we
say we don't mean to have Nicaragua we
don't want to have it2 You are an old
fool" Therefore, l say, as those men are
not punished, but MS Walker goes to visit
the President of the United States, that
you are guilty of fillibustcring. If he had
been taken at sea by any Government of
sufficient power abroad that dare execute
the law contrary to your sympathy, he
would have been hung until he was dead,
dead, dead, and there would have been the
last of Billy-the blue-eyed man of des-
tiny.

Let us look Mt that. That is the last
count find. Mr.. breckenridge, the papers
tell us, has said-ycs, sir, John has said
that there is trouble brewing. What is
the matter, John? You and the Demo-
cratic party have had possession of the
Government for nearly threc-quarters of a
century you have put up and you have
had control of the domestic and foreign
policy of the country, you have been ON
nipotent in States, and in the Union, in the
Senate and in Congress, you have had the
executive and municipal department of the
government, and the country is sick, is it?
Why what is the mattcr2 Who has been
doctoringi it? Who has caused this break
ing up of bonds of union, of which we
have heard this day2 I'm sad. you arc
sad, we are all sad. 1t is indeed sorry
sight, to see people in time of peace and
prosperity dragged to the verge of dlSsOlu-
ton, and the curious part of it is, and the
cruel part is that, if one of you had wife
or daughter that you tenderly love, MS you
ought, you would not act as yon now do
with this Union, that you boast of so much.
God knows, as bad man as am

above all women; she is i'll health and she
goes and comes, she smiles and cries,
works and plays, aud does all those things
that nature designed her to do. and If
call in some doctor upon some Imaginary
or real afliction of the great internal
course of health, and the doctor brings her
to bed, the rose fades from her cheek, the
bright eye becomes dull, tho full and round
form becomes emaciated and l say, "Why
DIR. the woman is dying, in the name OF
God what are you going to do?' "Well,"
says he, ''the woman is dying, am sorry,
but 1 am going to indicate myself in his
tory" Great Cod, are we American poo
pie, the free people of the nation to die,
and if the Union is dissolved, he intends to
vindicnte the Democratic party in history.

of doctors. The Democratic party has
brought you on the road to she devil
