among the Tories, Copperheads and "low-broved
Villains" who are numerous in New York City.
II seems that Dennis, among his other doings
there, attended the meeting which Prince John
Van Buren, addressed, and in which he gave the
"cue" for the new Tory programme. Dennis
not only heard the speech, but he took occasion
to inform the public, through the columns Of the
New York World, that he did not approve it,
Dennis assumed the right Of speaking on behalf
Of the Northwestern copperheads, and in their
name declared that they do not endorse the doc.
strines announced by Van Buren,. We don't
know but We ought to regret this unfortunate
differences of opinion. We really thought that
the New York Copperhsads we're the worst speci.

The attempt to classify the disloyal labors Of
the Tory leaders on behalf Of the Rebellion, as
.politics" is an awful cheat TREASON cannot
be sugar.costed by calling it "Democracy."-
Men whose labors are against the Government
and the laws-who are seheming to produce dis
sentions and divisions, anarchy and civil war
Who are trying to destroy the national credit,
demoralize the army and prevent future enlist
ments-such men are neither CONSERVATIVES
nor .'politicians they are, in the language Of
Brownlow, "hell deserving traitors, "-the worst
enemies the country has to meet There is no
more propriety in calling them ''pollticians'
than there is in styling counterfeiter . banker.
Al treason is the greatest Of all crimes, because
it embraces all, they cannot be considered by
loyal people anything less than enemies Of socie'
tty, Of the worst and most dangerous character
They cannot be met as politicians" but a
TRAITORS" They war upon everything we con-
slider valuable. They have upon them the guil'
of the burglar, the incendiary, the robber and
the assassin, because these are the direct results
Of their Internal teachings, FLOW directly from
them. Can such men, thus laboring for such
results, be treated as political opponents, % IN
former times? Certainly they cannot. It 's
| mockery to call them democrats" lit is 2 mis-
homer to style them politicians" They are
either black-hearted scoundrels, conspirine
against the Government which projects them,

o ENGLISH HoNoRl+-The New York Tribune
publishes number Of extracts from the Kings
ton. Jamaica papers relating to the arrival
Of the Alabama at Port Royal on that Island.
These s'Neutrslsp who built the Alabama, fur
nished her armament and provisions, who off,
oially assumed to be in utter ignorance Of
her pirstical character, who could find no good
cause to detain her when notified of her pur-
poses, who have since she started on her des-
ructive career, admitted tina: she ought to
have been detained, and protested . desire for
her cspture,-well, this vessel, which is as
clearly pirate ss Captain Kids, was again
. British port, and, what is done by the
honorable Britons? Why, they tell US she ar.
rived in ''gsllant style!" They are delighted,
and shake their sides with Laughter, as they
repeat the trick by which the pirate Semmes
made the Captain of the Hstterss believe the
Alabama was . British ship Of war!s, They
inform the public that the captivating pirate,
Semmes viii meet gentlemen .at the Commer-
cial Exchange, and afterwards tell us that
the meeting was an ovation to their distin.
guished visitor! The Alabama was injured
in the fight with the Hattsras, and they say
to Us that shipwrights and csulkers were dis
patched from Kingstonsto Port Royal to re-
pair the dsmages &, ii.,..g 40 fssafs w. |.
All this does not surprise Us. Il is quite
consistent with The conduct Of ''neutral" Eng
land from the beginning, and just what We
might expect from her rulers She is bound by
ell rules ofrisht and justice to detain the Ala.
bans, and TO hang her officers and crew to her
yard arm As pirates Each and ill of them have
violated, not merely the laws Of nstions, but the
laws Of England also. But to do these things
would not suit her purposes She prefers that
the Alabama should still pursue her career of
destruction. That viii assist she thinks, in &C :
the base designs shs has in view
Her rulers insgine that this win aid in ensarins
the final disruption Of the Union, and therefore
all things, this among the rest, are justi6able.
We shall zee about that, probably. And, in all
human probability, the time win come, and that
at no distant day, when British aristocrats will
learn Mat they, TOO, like Northern Coppsrheads,
have made ''mistake," the result Of which will
be not merely ruin, but also eternal infimy -
When she comes to drinking Of the cup she has
prepared for Us, she will understand how asro-
cious has been her conduct, and repent as other
nations have done, when it is-too late. Let
her go on. We can endure it better than she
can.

opPosERs Stphen a. Douglas. ID i1-f :
This should be the motto of every American
patriot; but if Douglas were now to rise from
his grave, he would find among the ssopposers'
Of his country some Of the very men who pre-
tended TO be his strongest admirers, and who
followed his able political leadership. He would
be against them now, and they would denounce
him as an "Abolitionist" for sustaining tho wal
measures OF the Government that is doing it,
utmost to save the country from the assaults o,
an armed foe, which happens to be slaveho,d.
ing aristocracy. @
Douglas was too able statesman and too ar.
dent patriot ever to have sunk down to the
low, cowardly and reasonable position assumed
by clique Of the Western Democracy, in oppo,
sition to the measures Of war for the preserva-
ton of the Republic. He vas too much of .
man, possessing too much heart and soul, Il
