that that model Of picty and confluence.
Henry VII, set up, for that tghost]y council,
in their trouble, that they cannot find in the
ordinances of God or the common sense Of
the race. Rampageous American Demo
crat, whose idea Of Democracy is perfected
when they may work without pay, whip
without fear Of Law, and sell for what
price they please, the laborers who give
them bread, these men armed with the in
evitable bowic-lnife, ignorant, vulgar, and
in all their habits and instincts barbarians,
iclcek-by .jowl with the English nobility,
the tic between them being common de-
sire to perpetuate in Europe and in the Re-
public the wrongs inflicted upon labor,
upon freedom, and upon equal rights
wrongs Of which they arc the fruits and
representatires-wou1d make O historical
ricturc that might, if studied in its true
light, greatly profit all who will learn what
strange coniunctions history has. Throw
in Two other figures, and the piece would
be complete: A priest Of the too common
American and Southarn type, whose sons
arc supported By labor whipped out Of un-
willing bondmen, whom, in solemn mock
cry, the Southern Church calls our black
bretlren,'' and whose daughters aaunt vul-
gar finery, every thread Of which is stained
with the blood Of their sable sisters, over
taskcd in the field, or unwilling and rebel
Iicus in the louse Of moral death, such a
priest, knccling reverently by the side OF
somc rosy-gi1led bishop, whose house is q
palace, whose life is one period Of un-
broken selfindulgence, and whose thought
Of the poor and the suffering, away off
down yondcr, somewhere in the novels and
huts that he has heard Of, is only half
drunken wonder why God permits him to
be disturbed by their moans and plaints,-
such priest and sucha bishop, kueeling
side By side and uniting in supplications
to the man-scllers God that the rage and
cruelty Of the North maybe abated;" that
the suffering lambs Of the South may
escape the uplifted knife" and that the
world may 60 on in its old way, unchal-
lengcd by radicals" abolitiouists" aud
other disturbcrs Of their heavenly con.
temptations and the good order OF society,"
would complete the cartoon. The twin
aristocracies should have it painted; aud
as pre- -Raphae1ism is half the fashion, the
more minute and truthful the portraitnre
the better: No suggestions of drawing anC
color can equal the horror embodied in th,
facts.
There is a lesson in all this that OUR peo
will do well to study-that men who claim
to be governed by the sacred truths of De
nocracy, which is only Christianity ap
| piled to Politics, ought to lay close to thel
hearts, The contest in which we are en-
gagged is Of worldwide significance; an,
! as it terminates so will human liberty b.
advanced or retarded in its mission, whicl
is the political regeneration of mankind
He, who, upon any pretcnce, is for tn
| South, is for Despotism. He who balance
between the extremes isa knayc Only he
who is heart and soul for the North, i
worthy Of that great freedom which th,
Government is struggling to preserve
Men Of the Northwest! absolying your
selves from the aflzmations that partisan
ship bus cxacted, rising superior to th'
slang and cant which go so far in con
trolling the world, where are you?
