believe the fight he is now making in this
State is dictated hy spleen and personal am

is to get the control of the Democratic party
in order to carry him to the Charleston Con-

"Broderick' party; it bas no past, no present
and no future, aud no principle. 1t is a mis-
cradle family squabble for party plunder-a
falling out among thieves in the division of
