shortly after the delivery of Lincoln's speech
in Congress against the Mexican war, and
referring to those who had made anti-war
and anti-naiona speeches in Congress-, said
''If they had Mexican muskets on their
shoulders, they could not assist the Mexi-
cans as much, or DO as much harm, rs they
have done by their speeches. In the name
of God, will the politicians of our country
never cease gambling for the Presidency
upon the blood of our countrynen? Our
army breads no danger; nor do they fear to
die in defence of their country, bat they do
dislike to be sacrificed to the unholy am.

Hon jeff. Davis recently delivered one Of
the ablest speeches of the American Senae.
Referring to the accusation of having sece
ded from the Democratic party. he SAID:
"My devotion to the party is life long If
the assertion be allowable it may bs said
that inherited my political principles. |
derive them from revolutionary father
one of The earnest friends of Mr.. Jeiferson:
who after the revolution which achieved our
Independence, bore his fall part in the civil
revolution, of 1900, which emanci pated us
from federal usurpation and consolidation.
therefore have all that devotion 10 party
which belongs to habitual reverence and
confidence But, sir, that devotion to party
rests on the assumption that it is to main
tam sound principles; that it is to strive
hereafter, as heretofore, to carry out the
erea. cardinal creed in which the Demo
cratic party was founded. When the reso-
lutons Of 1898 and 1899 are discarded;
when we fly from the extreme Of monarchy
to land in the danger to republics, anarchy,
and the Democratic party says It's arm is
paralvzed, cannot be raised to maintain
constitutional rights, my devotion to its or
panzation is at an end. 1t fails thencetor
ward in the purposes for which it WAS es
tablished, and if there be a constitutional
party in the land which, in the language o
Mr.. Jefferson, would find in the vigor of the
Federal Government the best hope for our
liberty and security, to that party should
attach myself whenever that sad contingent
cy arose.

in effect claims that himself is the Demo

true-would have fallen back upon, was MIR.
Lincoln"
Certainly, 'the very last one," and the
worst of this kind. The ''poltroons of Penn
