Daily national Republican. (Washington City [D.C.]) 1870-1872, 1872-01-18

Mr.. Brahmin Brooks evidently differs
from Mr.. Sumner, and considers "caste" a
good thing, inasmuch as 1t will, by the bless-
lngs Of free trade, destroy our lndustrits'
and with them the independent mechanic
who, by the assistance Of Brooks, will SINK
into the pauper class Of Europe, aud never
dare to come between the wind aud the
Hndoo head Of ]. B., editor and proprietor
Of the New York Express, and friend OF
monarchlcal mouopollsts.
Mr.. Brooks has been to sec the elephant /;
In fact, he saw several elephants In Hln-
doostan: and hereafter will quote literally
from the inspired pages of the Vedas, and
lift up his voice in frequent and sacred
chants, as should a fine old Hindoo gentle
who believes in caste, and hates our greasy
mechanics and their way Of improving the
country.
Long ago Mr.. Brooks mnde up his mind
that the republic was failure. He announced
this In 1884. and all through the war com
llnued to sound his pIratlcal timbrcl as one
and another OF our ships went down, aud dis
aster darkened our national sun. The re-
public did not wipe itself out, but by the aid
OF the Republican party perpetuatcd its
power, and still gives hopes Of continuing TO
bless mankind. This Is and was q grievance
to Mr.. Brooks, and 90 great hls disgust that
he took ship Gan English ship and stccred
for "forelgn ports" He tarrlcd not long In
Europe, as those absurd countries we're seek
iug to copy after our own, and to llberalize
institutions, and 90 unite liberty with
strength. This was offensive to Mr.. Brooks.
Il reminded him Of home, and Of the ropub-
lie that would live In spite Of his Express edi-
torlals and Congressional forebodlngs.
To the East must all 20 for knowledge, and
40 TO the land from whence all knowledge
sprang went our prosy pilgrim. His soul
has found peace. In the far East, where
men never change, where no wretched radi'
cal.cver succeeded In innoculatlng improve
meuts into the Heather Hindoo; there did
our Brookslan Brahmln regalc hIs senses,
and refresh his saddened spirit. Centuries
have followed centuries, and change has
never come to alter modes Of thought OF
action, and "caste" rules all. Here Mr..
Brooks would have staid, but the Chinese
Emperor sent for him, and contract has
been entered into between tho Manhattan
man-our blessed Brahmln-and Foo-Choo,
or some other old chap-by which the De
mocracy are to have all the coloniElng Chi
nese needed to carry the election for Presl
dent The coffee-pot naturalization mill o
Pennsylvania has been put In order, aud I
few choice Tammany ticket tlnkers are en-
gagged to superintend the job. Boabadi
Brooks Is horc complRcent and sweetll
smiling at the ardor OF fellows who have no
got the Chinese empire behind them, an'
hence his rebuke OF Mr.. Kelley.
What Is the use Of prsting OF facts, Rnt
who cares u Clyde steamers and American
iron companies contest for supremacy
Secure In the Chinese coalition, Mr.. Brahmir
Brooks smiles at the protection prophet ant
his desire to take care Of the working men
and thus keep busy our mechanic millions
What cares Mr.. Brooks1 The controller o.
the Chinese can ship three hundred million
to our shores, and then where Il your pOoI
thirty millions Of American protectlonists
