pretty large molety of the Democrats whic
stil stands by the cause Of law and order
comes in for the talest description Of scOldiOg
Wa are told that whether we win battles o
| lose them, is a matter OF no consequence, ana
whatever the huctuation of our fortunes in tx
field. that nothing can restore the solid rap
tprs Of the past, except the election Of Dem
ocratic President. With bis inauguration vii
begin new era of brotherly love. Of money
making, of swords turned into plowsbares, ant
of spears turned into pruning hooks. Unde
the auspices of great and good men, like Fer
nando and Brooks, we nre steadily to advance
toward the millennium.
Although in the raptures of the good time
coming we hope to bo allowed to participate,
We are discouraged upon rejecting that, after
all Mozart only gives us brilliant bits of gen.
eralizatiOn. 1t is all very safe to cay that

upon certain compromises which must result
10 perfect public felicity. Delicious and de-
lightful Charming as poets midsummer
nights dream Aud quite as intangible 1t
is easy enough for Mr. Brooks to make mid

something--the Lord knows what which, for
the sake of our honor and our bappines,, We

tbat something il, tho combined intellectuals
and ngnnls of Mozart Hall are incompetent to
inform us. Compromise is word Of very
Iatitudnous meaning. 1t may signify something
tolerable or something simply intolerable; it
may be used as the shibboloth Of iorgyng
spirit, or the pitiful recourse of craven one;
it may hint at the preservation of all our sub
stautial rights, or surrender OF the most and
the best OF them. But first Of all, before We
can begin to patch up this wonderful peace,
il becomes US to consider, in the light Of our
present information, whether loves labor may
not be lost, when bestowed upon slave
holders. Does Mr.. James Brooks, or Mr..
Farchild, or Mr.. Isuatius Flynn, know
of any change which has come over tho
spirit of the Southern dresmi They, or men
Of their stripe, have already approached the
insurgents, with winning faces and words of
persuasion and Of discussion. and have been
rudey told 10 mind their own business and to
be of with their olive branches. A roaring
rampant, and red-hot Secessionst makes no
distinction between Mr. Lloyd Garrison and
Mr.. James Brooks. lie regards both as bis
mortal enemies, and in his secret heart he re-
CARDS Brooks as the least manly Of the two.
lie respects us most when we hit him hardest;
he adds contempt 10 hatred when we crawl to
his feet and beg him to mitigate the rancor
Of bis ire, and to be once mose upon thee-and.
thou terms. Upon the Whole il would not be
contrary 10 human nature, il should be
proved that the Boston Abolltionlst stands
higher in JEFF. Da,is's books than the New
York editor.
We trust that the Men Of Mozart will'haye
no opportunity to try any OF their absurd eH-
perimeuts, because we know that upon the
first failure they will have no quam about
punging us renorseles,ly into lower deeps Of
degradation. They vituperate the Government
for making war--the fair inference is that
with the possession of pc~er, they will hurry
to make peace upon the best terms, no matter
how bad, which they can get. Who doubts,
when the issue is fairly made up between con-
cession aud Secession, that the latter will get
very much the beat of the bargain. The pre-
.ent war is openly and earnestly denounced by
Mozart Hall Democracy as " bloody, relent-
less, unnecessary and fruitless.' Bat 1t would
he difficult to show how any war waged for
the single purpose of restoring the Union,
could escape the application, by the same dis
contented sBarlers, Of every one Of these four
adjectiyes. The presumption, therefore, quite
logically is, that Mozart Hall is opposed to any
war for the Union. The sequitur Of that is,
that il pines Tor Peace. But honorable Peace
being impossible except through victory, aud
victory being I" bloody, relentless, unnecessary
and frutle.s" il follows to dead certainty
that Brooks Il Co. are for q DlshOnorable
Peace. Q. l.. ID. We believe that it is un-
necessary for us to say another word.
