airy Movements OF Greeley and His Fra
ternity.
The negro in his native land worships f.
itch, and Horace Greeley worships the negro.
Day after day, in the Tribune, his unvarying
note 10 the black. The everlasting burden OF
his song, as monotonous and as paintive as that
of the whip-poor-will, is his African, woolly-
headed, ebony idol The object of his strains is
not to elevate the negro to the position OF the
white man-that being, even in bis opinion, sim
ply impossible-but to drag down the white man
to the level of the negro, or rather to produce
from both, by amalgamation, mongrel breed
inferior to either. This is the last of the sweep
ing social, moral and political changes which
Greeley and his fellow laborers have been seek
ing to accomplish for upwards of q quarter OF .
century, eliminating in an attempt to over
throw the constitution and the government
formed by Washington, and to subvert the So
cal fabric from its foundations. He has failed
in all his other revolutionary movements; whe-
Their he shall ultimately succeed in this remains
to be seen.

doctrines of communism or the abolition of pro-
perty, SO that all things should be held in COM
mon. These new-fangled ideas entered into cleo
ton contests, but were soon extinguished by
the common sense of the people. Then came the
social theories of Charles Fourier, which were
still worse; for not only did he advocate COM
munity of property, but community OF wives,
or rather the concubinags of the sexes. He did
not attempt to carry ais principles into prac-
tice in France; but Greeley g. Co. soon organ
lied societies based upon those ideas in the
United States. 1t was the first time in the his
tory Of Christianity that an attempt was
made to found an association upon the ter
rible principle Of prostitution. The interests
and the passions Of mankind would not per-
nit tho growth Of such organizations in our
midst, and they were finally demolished, though
in after years sprang from the latent poisonous
root, whose stem was broken, the ideas Of free
love and womens rights, SO warmly espoused
by Greeley and the Tribune philosophers.
Fooled also in his championship of these social
heresies, he next turned his attention to
Graham bread, to liquor and to Sunday
laws, Intervening them adroitly with cleo
ton issues Again he was bafflsd. Last OF
oil he embarked in the agitation Of " liberty,
fraternity, equality for negroes; and in that,
we are sorry to say, he has been hitherto far
more successful than in any Of his other revo-
lutionary enterprises But the end is not yet.
He commenced his crusade against the consti-
tuition and government Of the country by the
publication of an insulting, traitorous song
against the flag of the Union. It is in the fol-
lowing words; and lot all read, mark, learn
and inwardly digest the sentiments Of the
abolitionists, as expressed by their organ =
GREELEYS HYMN OF TREASON ON THE AMERICAN
FLAG.
All hail to the Haunting Liei
The stars grow pale and dim,
The stripes are bloody scars,
Lie tho Wanting hymn
Il shields pirate deck,
II binds man in chains,
Jokes the captivos neck,
And wipes the bloody stains
Tear down the Haunting Lie -
Haif-mast the starry Tag,
Insult sunny sky
With hate polluted ragt
Destroy it, We who can
Deep sink 1t in tho waves
II bears a fellow
To groan with fellow slaves.
Furl tho boosted Lie
Till freedom lives again
To rule once more In truth
Among untrammeled men,
Roll up the starry sheen,
Conceal its bloody stains;
For in its folds seen
The stamp OF rustling chains
Tbia snt;cinated tho Jobp Rrowo ro;5 -. :
