The New Orleans Press on Charles SUM
ner's Last Speech. ,.Y
Sundays Delta has the following.


Sundays Delta has the following:
Charles Sumner has returned to his old
work. After bowling under Brooks's cudpel,
and then whining in PENNSYLVANIA, whining
in New York and Boston, whining in Paris
and London, he has come back, highly i'm
proved by about four years Of prosperous
ablectness and convalescence, TO insult and
vilify the whole Southeon people from the
safe shelter of the Senatorial Office. He be-
gins where he left of, or, rather, begins
where he formerly began making the ''crime
against Kansas his text, and the 'barbarism
of slavery" his deduction. Laying down
formulas Of civilization to suit his purpose,
and assuming falsehoods concerning the
South with the same accommodating facility
he proclaims again as the essence of Black
Republican faith the Lincoln and Seward
doctrine of an "irrepressible conflict be-
tween free and slave labor, and the duty of
cherishing a sacred animosity" against slave
holding communities. .
There can be no mistaking the purport of
his language. 1t means war to the bloody
utterance upon the slave States of the Union.
1t means that, if the Black Republicans OBJ
tain control of the Federal Government the
South must either resist or be annihilated,
viii the South bare her neck to the stroke?
Unfortunately the course of factious politi-
clans in the South-renegade Democrats,
bogus Union-sayers and fre-eaters turned
non-resistants and peace-Congressme is
calculated to confirm the Black Republican
leaders in the belief that the South is already
a moral suicide, and would even invite the
blow.
Sundays Picdyune makes these comments:
Sumner has been for years brooding over
his disgrace, and preparing his revenge. His
wounded vanity exacted of him that he should
seek fnp ;t, fbs
where he was scourged and his pride is in
repeating the ofense in the most aggravating
form which thorough search of the vocabu-
larry OF abuse for some weary years of self
Punishment could supply to reckless tongue.
Supported, as it seems, by sort of body
guard, under the direction of the fighting Mr..
Burlngame, as security against interrupt
ton by another cane, he went into the Senate
TO deliver the most flriously bitter and ma
ngnant TRADE against slavery and slavehold-
ing, against the slave States of this Union,
and the shareholders of those States, which
has ever been uttered in this country by a
man above the standard of Fred Douglass or
Garrison. For hours he continued to pour
out all the boarded resentment of his heart,
in strain Of insult to which the abusiveness
which stung Mr.. Brooks into the imprudence
of chastising him into notoriety was dulcet
commonplace. He ransacked ancient and
with which to stigmatize the society of the
South as "barbarous" beyond any thing
known among nations which pretend to civ
ilization. 'r..t.. ... .a.u. 'Hs l..I +.
This black TRADE went on without inter
ruption, and with no other reply than some
brief words from Senator Chestnut, of South
Carolina, in which he expressed, in words
much more emphatic than complimentary,
his opinion of the scandalous exhibition Of
malignant and revengeful passions. The
Southern Senators otherwise sat in contemp-
tuous silence while this railing Abolitionist
unpacked his heart of its foul passions and
his brain of the unwholesome load of re-
vengeful thoughts.
This mouthing Sumner is aranter whom no
party will consent to receive as leader He
may expound their sentiments, but they
shrink from the audacity with which he de-
cclares them, and the impudence of making
issue Of them too soon. They have discarded
Seward mainly because he is too directly
committed to theories of the same kind with
Sumner to be available as candidate yet.
