,FrcmOnt's Party.

FREMoNT's campaign IN Missouri ended as disas-
trously to himself as if he had suffered complete
defeat from Gen. PRICE, in the eyes of military men.
Assuming as he does, all the erimony of Prince,
the is totally withouability, honor or integrity.
Had he remained in command, he would have ru.
ined the Government as well as himself.
Yet in that radical, jacobinical element which
rules the North, there is resurrection for all such
charlaans as he is. The Yankee States are the
Elysium of charlatanry-the hotbed of political
and religious humbugs. The Black Republican
party, which is the source of the necessity thai
arose to break up the old Union, when it be-
came the instrument of oppression, has its
foundation in this disorgsnizing element.
FRExoSr is the idol and embodiment of the ultra
Black Republican element, because he is thor
oughly corrupt, reckless, and disorgsnizipg than
any of its leaders Therefore, his summary dismiss
sal by the Administration has raised sn excitement
that will prove of contention and trouble in
the camp of the usurpers which cannot be reprcssed
and will most probably exhibit itself during the
present session of the LISCoLN Congress. The
psrtsans of FREMONT will insist that envy of his
rising greatness has caused his removal. In vindi
cation of the Administration its friends will freely
ventlate the evidence of his weakness, imbecility
and corruption. But this, instead Of dsmsgiDg FRE~
MONT with his friends, who are tho hawks and
buzzards that circle around the corruptions
of Governments, will rather enhance his merits
in their estimation. They desire just such man,
who will deal out the spoils of the Government
with hooters hand, in the chair of LINCOLN
Their theory of Government is that it was made
for pluAdering purposes. Freefarms, free-soi free
plumber and freeniggers are the essence of their pO
Htical philosophy. Their raid into the South has
gathered much Of its strength ard energy from
the prevailing idea, inculcated By GREELT and
his school, that the soldiers who fight for the
Ursn, will be rewarded with the farms of the
"rebes. " The confseation bill stimulated this
impression. The invasion of the South is nothing
but great piratical expedition, and FREN0ST hays
ing of the desperate qualities of pirate than
any of the leaders, be must necessarily gather
an immense party TO his support, which viii
shake the dynasty at Washington, and
threaten serious disruption in the Red and Black
Republican organization. The principles of the
Black Republican party, as embodied in the various
speeches of LINCOLN, SEWARD, CHASE, HALE, SUMNER
and Wilson, and as seen in all their monstrous and
tyranical acts since they have disgsaeed the eat
once held by WASHINGTON and his successors, con-
tain the came IerniciOuI code of piracy murder and
plumber. Fremont only carries on. their doctrines
to fuller extent in practice. He plays rebber
upon the Confederates and the LINCOLN Govern
ment at the same time. Hence he is the looming
man" of the North, and is bound to win
in the next political contest, unless he is
shufled off to the Bastle. Even then it
ia presumable that his cause will gain
fresh vigor from the sympathy of his cOnfederates,
and the cry of persecution. Nothing but the gull
Iotine can extinguish him and end his desperate
and reckless career. The LINCOLN despotsm has
gone to every length Of tyranny but this. Fear
has hitherto restrained it from resOrting to the
practice of the guiIotine But there is no limit to
political crime when its career has fairly begun,
One crime leads to the necessity for another
and from the extent of the influence of FREMONT and
the hold he has upon the hearts of the Northern
Red Republicans, we should not be surprised if his
career is closed upon the scafoli II is clear that
he is running an for the guillotne or the
imperial purple. Which goal he may first reach,
remains for the LINCOLN managers to determine.
