The New York News and Hon. James
Brook.

The New York News is lachrymose
over the detection of Hon. James Brooks
and has admission that slavery is dead,
because, as it says:
When slavery is dead the South ceases
to exist except as conquered provinces.
When slavery dies, except in the only
manner it can die, by the voice of the
citizens of the slave States repeating
their laws and changing their Constitu-
tons, then are their States mere tributa-
ries to the General Government, which,
b its assumption of power, becomes
consolidated Empire. When it is dead
by act of Congress, the Constitution of
the United States dies with it, for it al
lows Eo such usurpation of power-no
such at blow at the rights of the States,
and can survive no such fatal stab.
The Ne,cs is distressed about the de-
cadence of State sovereignty, which is
now perceived in the formal knell of
slavery recognized by Mr.. Brooks. 1t
affects to think lightly of Brooks's
speech, which, it says, don't amount to
much-"it hurts no one but the author"
but tears come into its eyes,
Because it follows in the wake of All
clifton, repeats the coined phrase that
slavery is dead, never again to rise NOT
as we'll as the Abolitionists themselves
repeat it, and scarcely as well as a ma
triot could be taught the same words bv
having them constantly dinned in their
ears, for the length of time Mr.. Brooks
has been in Congress. /"
OHe would think ''the cause of regret
was here abundantly set forth, but what
follows shows it to have been something
else. 1t was not, then, because Mr..
Brooks follows in the wake of Adolf
tionism;" it was not because he said
slavery is dead, never to rise again"
although this was just given as the cause
of regret. AS if this were deemed in
sufficient cause, the Ne,cs proceeds to
explain that not one cause, but two
causes this regret 1t says:
Our regret springs from two causes.
First, Mr. Brooks is, or protested to be.
an old Henry Clay Wing, and as such q
defender of the Constitution; and sec
ondly, because he was elected to Con
gress by a Democratic constituency.
whose principles and those of Mr.. CLAY
he has deserted, and has taken that fatal
step which must necessarily force him
into the ranks of that unhealthy organ.
ization" which Mr. Clay in his life, and
the Democracy, have ever warred against
as party, based npon opposition to the
letter and spirit of the Constitution.
But the Nesos not only weeps, it some
times becomes indignant, and gives vent
to its rage as follows:
We "persist" in advocating a complete
and eternal breach between the Peace
men and that shifting, shutting, her.
naphrodite Of faction called War De
mocracy, which at last has identified
itself with Abolitionism. We persist
in exhorting the Peace party to ''enter
the Presidential campaign upon the
plain, unequivocal Peace issue, and

The Rebels ParoIing McClellaa We.
terS.

Quite q number OF our men in rebel
hands have been psroled and sent home,
with no Apparent reason why they |
should be favored rather than other |
prisoners. And lately they have sent |
t1nrough the lines several hundred deser- |

phia, the other night, that relative OF
his had recently been paroled by the
rebels on his promise to vote for Nc

the Richmond authorities caused an ex-
animation TO be made of all the prison
ers on Belle Isle. 10 learn which party
they belonged TO. Such as declared for
Mcclellan were paroled those for Lin
coin removed further south. But most
of our men had got an idea Of what was
going on, and answered questions &C

The VICTORY IN MIssouRI.-The West
answers to the East In the great work
of subduing the enemies of the Union. -
Gen. Price who at the head of his myr-
midons, has been for some time ravag-
ing southwestern Missouri, has at last
been met in pitched battle near Kansas
City and overwhelmingly routed. He
had given out word that after many tri-
ais, his stay this time was to be perma-
ment. But tits already over, and the
question is whether Price can save him
self by flight. This is probably the last
attempt at the reconquest of Missouri
Price has been preparing for it all sum-
mer and had gathered up GIL the rebel
force which could be supplied west of
the Mississippi River. His failure, there
fore is final. His speeches, also, which
he is said to have made along his route
in advocacy of Gen. McClellan's election
may properly be included in the failure.
The people of Missouri will now have
access to the polls undisturbed, and the
differences they will be likely to draw
from Prices raid may not accord at all
with his expressed wishes.
