Judge Douglas and the Democratic Party. An article which recently appeared in tbo Wash iogton Statu with reference to the condition and prospects of the Democratic party, ia exciting a good Seal of interest among the political quidnuncs. As straws show which way the wind Wows, we may determine pretty accurately, the direction of Judge Docolas' sympathies and feelings, from the views and opinions of his organ. The Washington cor respondent of Uio New York Tribune toys: " Douglas's organ in this cily, The Stales, whose editor, Mr. Pryor, was Douglas's confidential advis er in the recent difficulty with Mr. Filcb, declares this evening that there is no longer Democratic party, and cttca, in proof of its assertion, the dis sension between President Buchanan and Secretary Cass on the question of Squatter Sovereignty, be tween Buchanan and Floyd on the question of the Focifis Railroad, and between Buchanan and Ccbb on tho Tariff question- It ssys thai on no single issue is there concord in the party, and aeserts that the confusion of Babel was not eqoal to the present discords of the Democracy. The Slatet being un derstood' to express the views of Judge Douglas, the article attracts great attention.' Jtidge Douglas expressed on the floor of the Sen- ate last winter, while engaged in his treacherous efforts to break down the Democratic party, the same sentiments which here find him repeating through the columns of his organ. We may there fore conclude that he has abated nothing of his hos tility to 'the Administration, and that he is deter mined to merit the self-choscn epithet of an " un conquered robeh" We feel perfectly willing that he should wearthe honors that he claims. If he pre fers1(jJsfigTjtjjSfider therebel flag, we certainly rould deprive hTmrbf none of the dignity or renown that may attach to the glory of his achievements. Ue can inflict no greater injury on the Democratic party in his character of an insurgent, than he has U ready done while following the Black Republi can Standard. If he can tarn more distinction as a' free looter than by mirchtng in the ranks of the enemy, we are not disposed to complain of his choice v Nor are) we alarmed at the dark forebo dings of himeelf and his organs. They hate been predicting deetruction to the Democratic party ever since they placed themselves in opposi tion toil. Theyhavesecn nought butdangerand darkness in the future, since the administration re fused to listen to their counsel on the Lecompton question, and abandon its policy and iis principles in obedience to their wilL We remember how elo quently Judge DouotAS warned the parly of the evil consequences of the course it was pursuing, and we remember, too, how faithfully the Slatet echoed his sentiments. The Senator and his organ, both prophesied speedy perdition to the Democra cy, if they passed the Lecompton Bill. We are not astonished that they should attempt to convince the country that their predictions have been fulfilled. Their reputation as prtphets, depends on their success in this undertaking, and we may expect a series of just such mournful musings as those which we find in the columns of the Slates. We anticipate a periodical repetition of tbee melancholy-utterances. Whenever Judge DoucLas finds lis fortunes growing darker, and his influence in the nation becoming weaker, we shall be favored with another strain of his prophetic inspiration and another rehearsal of his dirgo over the death of the Democratic parly. He will soon become a con fii jicd hypochondriac. He will be as melancholy 'as the knight of the broken vow and worul visage. His lamentations will be as incessant if not as musi cal as those of Obpmus sighing forhislott mistress. Math os meditating in hta exile amidst the ruins of Carthage, or Asdbew Jackson Doxkisox mourn ,iag over the corruption and decay of the party which he had abandoned, are the only historical examples to which we can compare tho banished Senator, and his discontented followers. They console themselves iri their desolation, by deploring the destruction of the Democratic organization. They luxuriate in their grief and delight in their anguish. The only drawback to their melancholy joy, is that ' the occasion of tlivir grief is entirely imaginary. Neither Mr. Dcuolas nor his friends can convince themselves that the Democracy U less powerful than when the Senator himself led its forces in the Con gress of the United States. They of course fail to convince the people of a fact which they do not be lieve themselves. Tho State may point in triumph to thediversity of opinion among leading statcsmn In Washington, but the Slatet it aware that these divisions do not extend to the masses of the people. who guard tho principles and direct tho destinies of the Demoeratio party. Judge Docolas may de clare that ho is a "victorious rebel" but Judge Douglas knows that he has not conquered tho .strong, deep, Demoeratio ecntimeut of the country though he may have defeated the Administration in its efforts to admit Kansas into the Unicn. He has read political history to little advantage if he con ceives that the distentions of office holders cr office seekers about Washington can permanently disturb the hat mony of the Democracy of the nation. He has learned little from the past if he thinks that his success in Illinois will break down the Admitiijtra tion or seriously embarrass its policy. Gen. Jack - sos's Cabinet was torn by faction, and finally broken up. But the party was never more powerful and united. Jous C. Calhoun, while Vice President of the United States, resigned his office and raised tho flagof rebellion ia South Carolina. Hetoo was vic torious; he returned in triumph to the capitoh and hurled his defiance in the face of the Administra , tion. But tho Administration was successful and the Integrity of the party unshaken. And so it will be again. Politicians may wrangle over office or ' quarrel about the best meanB of carrying on the government; but the people constitute the Demo cratic party and they will not be false to its prin ciples.. A Democratic Caucua Important Action on tlie Tariff. Special Dlipatrh tff the Cincinnati Garette.1 . Waiuimoto:i, Jan. SO. The Democratic United Slates Senators have had a aucus on the proposed tariff emendmcnts, when action was taken adverse to any increase of duties. Mr Hunter offered a resolution declaring it inex pedient to increase the tariff, owing to a revival in business, which promises aa abundant revenue. Mr Bicleroffercd a resolution declarwg,the reve nue insufficient, and, therefore, an increase in the tariff, necessary. ...... j Mr Siidell said the Government had belter reduce the expenses, and not increase revenue Mr. Bigler's resolution rejected, ana Mr. Hunter e tras adopted by a large majority. , Wc are greatly rejoiced at this action on the part of the Demoeratio caucus and tinccrely hope that it .mav.dee1tt.QlIsaeasuio3 for the lacrcass oi uuuei.

And he says: , - "And, venture to prfliet thattfthln ten yean from this time, it will have the support of a Urge majoriiy of the ptople or tu .live state." How hopeful is this champion of the Bepublieaa party! His faith can lewive mountains. He must let that he has the nucleus of a party there now. Will he bo so kind as to tell us who is so trecher ou8 to he South as to embrace UUck Republican ism? But he has great horror of tbeSou'h'a ex tending her institutions into any other Territories, and appeals lo all, North and South, who are op posed-to tbij "slavery propaganda," to nnile in roatinir hiltej-Lnd rclenilcss war upon the Demo cratic narlv. because, as he savs, it t.iors southern expansion. SK if these things be in "'the green nee. ihrv willbe in tho drv 2 ' lompiouJ to acknowledge that, under the Derno cra'is nriutiale of Stute riehts and popular s ver- riintv. the South may crow Wnd cxpmd. Under the beniirn influence of thioparv. wt'U a gtnial oiimate that rivals the sunny c iujet of Italy or France, with a soil rich and productive as the fabu lous fertllitv of the Nile, and with a population whose spirit and energy "couiu conquer a worm, . . .. - - , j i. the Fouih mav vet achieve a s'lll nobler destiny AVnat would our power, as a nationr be to-day, ifit had not been for this principle of expansion, so dear to the great Democratic heart! Whan we come lozlance at the map of our terri- torial acquisitions, the iajusiice and inequality to which the South would have been subjected, and from which it was pania'ly 'eaved by the policy of the Democraiic party, U startling. In order to comprehend raoro fu'ly the etotmlty or northern, selfishness, see the Old Dominion-tho mo-hSr cf great ideas and great deeds, in the prodigality rr her munificence, and in the virgin purity of her patriotism, with a moguinimity to which thehiiory of tho world furnishes no parallel, cede to theNorih the Northwest Territory, an empire of itself, com prising tre States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Mich igan, and Wisconsin. For thismuuificent donation a froe-will offering lo theso people-thcy i-end to this Congress some Representatives who affect to scorn what they are pleased lo aVneniinate the slave oligarchy of Virginia. Well may this venerat ed old mother exclaim, "Iloir sharper than a aerpenfi toothith To hare a thanUe&s child." And yet, when the wise statesmanship and fore cast of Jefferson seized upon the lucky moment lo wrest the Louisiana purchase from the grasp of Na poleon, this tame northern party denounced him as a propagandist and usurper. There was a splendid acquisition, the richest in soil, the most splendid in production, the most delightful in climate, and the mott fruitful in resources of any land beneath the sun; with the noblest rivers, embracing the great Father of Waters, upon whose bosom navies might proudly flcat Whoso insane who so struck with judicial blindness as to regret the free navigation oMhe Mississippi river, wiihout whieh tho South must have ever been a blighted province, shorn of her commerce! The advantages of that territory can scarcely be computed. Every farmer who lives within the great valley of that noble river, has cause to bless the American progrefs of the Democratic party, with out which-that immense empire would hate been to day a French colony. It was the Democratic party that gave ycu Fljiida witli ils health-giving breeze. And when tho lone star of Texas, currus eating with the glories of San Jacinto, veered from the rrt.it of its nationality, and settled amid the American galaxy, this same anti-slavery party of the North, had their hearts not quailed them, would have quenched it in blood, and blotted it from the firmament of Stales. Annexation was opposed by the old Whig rarty in the South; but only aa a party move, which resulted mott disastrously to its pros pects and future. But the national democracy in Bribed the honored name of Texas upon their ban ners, and bore her triurcphmtly into Iho Union. Who, now, but an abolitionist, will gainsay the wis oom of that policy! There she lies upon our south western border, like a huge giantess slumbering in her strength, who, if the bloodhounds of lanatictsm approach too nearly, will arouse lo tho most deter mined and desperate resistance, We can no more do without Texas, than the moon can do without the lustre of the ttars that smile in her face a3 " She walki In beauty through the night." Where is the enlightened statesman who will ad mit that Mexican territorial acquisitions the ctowning glory of that most succesful and bril liant administration of the model President, were inexpedient end unwise. Since the mines of Cali fornia and Nlw Mt-xico have been opened up to American enterpripe and industry, evcty depart ment of human pursuit throughout our whole coun try has been quickened, and the whole commercial world strides alone upon a more exleiided scale. California gold is silently producing revolutions in the commercial and financial world that contradicts all calculations of the political economists, and up sets the best established theories of the wisest statesmen. Sceptics may doubt and sneer, but they are confounded at the amazing results it has pro duced in the progress of human thought and action. Energies hove been aroused and latent efforts put forth which had lain dormant throughcut the long ntght o: ages past In the whirl of prosperity and sudden fortune which has broken upon us, men' can scarcely believe their senses. In a word De motrucy has acquit cd every foot of territory that has been added to the nation, and has taken every s'ep in the march cf American progress, while the opposition parlies have resisted and opposed our expansion preterring rather American repression. That mission is not yet fulfilled; the dim vista that separates the present from the future, but hard ly conceals from the view still grander and nobler results. The time may not have arrived when we ought to acquire other territory, but it will come. Desii nv farces it upon ue trAaf it lo be vrill be, and hu man power cannot prevent it. Yau can no more repress iho energies of this people than ycu can check the headlong cataract or turn the course of the mighty river. Cuba, rocgh diamond in the Spanish crown, will some day dazzle the eye.bright, polished, and sparkling in the diadem of American States English diplomacy, nor Frenoh bluster, can wrest from the American people this gem of the ocean wave, colored as it is, with the blood of tho lamented Crittenden. It is ours, geographically; commercially, naturally, ond the very sovereignty of America, tooccr or later, requires its annexa tion. There is not an inlercstin th's country that would not be beneficially affected ly the acquisition of tbis island; but more e-pecially would it contribute lo the interests of the people inhabiting the valley of the Mississippi river Every description of pro duce nor raised in that fertile valley would be en hanced in value by finding a market in Cuba; while the great staple cf that island, sugar, under Amer ican culture and by free trade, would be supplied lo us at greatly reduced rates. The people of the United Stales would save, annually, millions in the simple article of sugar But the island becomes doubly important to this country in view of our hundreds of millions of commerce between the At lantic and Pacific shores that past beneath the Spanish guns. A people so near our own shores, and long weighed down by tho iron yoko of Spanish despotism, awed into submission to the most tyran nical laws by a hireling soldiery, it is not unnaiu -ralthat they should seek deliverance from a Govern ment which, instoad of affording them protection, operates as an engine cf oppreesion. American prosperity and Cuban independent alike suggest tho necessity of cariy action. European diplomacy is endeavoring to entangle us with our southern neighbors, but American pro gress must cut the Gordiaa knot of Mexican mis rule, aud Central American deepotitm, and rebuke the unwarrantable intervention of the English Queen and the French Emperor. These countries mutt and will be Americanized; in spite of the in trigues of foreign despots, by tho moral power of our great example; if not, by the terrible vengeance of the sword. To such an alternative we have to come; I would prefer not, but sooner thau see those transits cloecd by the armaments of the Anglo French alliance, to intercept our commerce and our free passage tothe Pacific chores, and thus laugh to corn, our boasted American principle of tho Mon roe doctrine, I would counsel and appeal to the ar bitrament of the sword, the last argument of na, lions. Sir, I am not of that Fchool of politicians that would repress the application of the great prin ciple of liberty and justice to classes or to States. I have r.o fears lhatthoee eternal princiiles will be come diluted by expansion lam cot alarmed for fear this country will brctk in two on account of its great msg"ituJe ttat very in 'gintude presupposes remoteness of parts and divetmy of kiterojis, ani those part and interests will naturally begi t a jeal ousy towards the more central and powerful that cannot fail to preserve in beautilul proportion the entiie whole. The isolated position of California and Oregon,' far off on the Pacifio shores, renders them ever watchful and jealous of the AlUntie Stat and thcte lying t the North, anddtgon- rtrstto-day, by their sound ooneervafiv caHotal Democracy, tbtir fympatby lcr the woker section of the Union, and the lights of tho S'ates. Bat lo return in chronological order, when, in 1850, the Soutlf meekly asSed aa equal piTttcipa ticn in the Mexican territorial acquisitions, pur chase'! byline common. Wood and trtasurc'qf the' country, there was in the path of American progress. a nootter more terrible than European guns, the infernal spirit cf ami slavery, who blood up in all his effrontery and opposed her just and constitu tional demmd, and thrustcd in her faco Wilmol provisos. But the Democracy, with true constilu-" tional devotion, denounced all such unjust discrimi nations ngainet any portion of this Confederacy, and proclaimed the principle cfnon intervention and popular sovereignty. It is True that, lo the genius and statesmanship of the illustrious sage of Ashland, moro lhn any other man, is the honor of that triumph due; but, it must be remembered, that he had been set aside by the Whig party for the availability of General Taylor, and that the grpat Kmuckian was without a parly, and had to rely upon the willing support of tho Demoeratio party And, again, in 1854, who but the Democratic party stood Up for the stmc great principlo in the Kansas and Nebraska act? The great body of the Whigs in tho Sanih, who loveJ principle moro than they did parly, gave the measure their hearty sup port. Again, when Konas. with a leeally-made conslitu ion, knocks at the door of the Uuion end asks that she be allowed a teat in tbis great eisler hoed of States, the is indignantly tefused by every Abolitionist and Black Republican, because she has rccoznised domestic sHvery in her constitution. The South, in this instance, as in 1854, furnisfcei a crrporal's guard who vte ar.dactwtli the anti slatcry parly. But no southern DennoiQt, am proud to bay, is found upon tho list ; ha', to a man, with more ilian haU the southern Americans nip perl the measure. And where si ami j the northern Democracy in this test of their fealty to the can stiiulional rights ot tho South! Of tho nqrthern Democrats in the Senate, only three volcdseftinsi i'; while In tho Hnuse, from tho Norn, only twelve Democrat arc.fouud to finally iecord their vole with tho Opposition. Thus you see, after all the hue and cry cf Iho di vision in the ranks of the Democracy, there ere bat a very for who stood out finally But it is urged that the poliey of the Administration upon this is sue has been condemned in the recent elections in the North The Democracy, in the last northern elections, for the first time, had to contend against the complete fusion of the Black Republican and Know Nothing parties. And even against tbot un holy alliance our strength, as shown by the popular vote in each of tbreo great States, New York". Penn sylvania, and Ohio, is larger thau it ever was before; showing, conclusively, tbat Iho policy of the Admin istration bai been opposed liy the honest masses of the party. Bu'. wherfc is the man of any oth er party in the North who stood by the South in this contest! Echo answers where! But how has the pul.oy of the Administration been received in tho States South where elections have taken place! The popular msjoiities hae been largely increased In Missouri, where an effort has been made to introduce the emancipation q-ieelion along wito anii-Lesomp-ton, the Administration parly has been eustained by tho uprising of the people by unprecedented majori ties Democrats and Americans have united and swept anti-Lecompton and emancipation from the soil of Missouri. 9ut some AmerioanB of the South complain thit the South has lost Kansas, as a slave State, and that squatter sovereignty has been substituted for popu lar sovereignty. At the same time that these parti sans make these complaiuls, they Bustain moat en thusiastically the very men who vo'c 1 aztlnst the repeal cf tht. Missouri compromise; the very men who voted to keep Kansas fne territory, and who opposed her admission as a flare State. Beautiful consistency' Complaining because Kansas is not a slave State, and yet hurrah for the very men- who, by their votes, would net give her even a chance to be a stave Stale; and denounce those who did give her the opportunity lo have slavery 1 These same consistent patriots affect to be wonderfully horrified at the doctrine of squatter sovereignty. They cry out squatter sovereignty, and at the same timo de nounce the Administration which is oppoeed to that odicus doclri c. They are down on squatter sover eignty, but they are ready to excuse anybody (but a Democrat) forcnlertaiuingthe heresy. They do nounce squitter sovereignty, but sus'ained Millard Fillmore, who sustained congressional intervention. They cry cut sqnatter sovereignty, aud at the suns timo sustain their leaders, who voted and acteJ with Free-Soiltrs in the territorial organizati- n act cf Kansas and Nebraska, and who were in open harlo try with the Abolitionists against the admission of Karsas, because sho had slavery. Nor can they say that they are ignorant of the Block Republican tendency of this party. Have net some of the South American journals recently baldly declared their williDgne'ss to fuse wiib the Black Republicans! And is it not understood in this city, that efforts, unceasing efforts, ore con stancy made lo bring about a harmonious coalition! Do not the Journals of Congress tell tho tale too plainly, that there is a party in the South acting, not talking only, but acting with the Black Repub licws, with the view to overthrow the Democracy! And waSnot this Northern American party politely bowed out of the late New York State Black Re publican convention, after it had become demoral ized by a proposition to fuse, and after it had low ered its tUg and tubicribed to the anti slavery plank of Seward's platform! I say bowed out, for they were indignantly refused a voice in the nomi ua ijn of the ticket. Did not tho Sena'cr fron New York, Mr. Seward, during the great debate of tte laststsaior, congraiuia-eii'S party, that their prospects were brightening, and Inat even in tlie South a party was forming, upon whose aid he cculd confidently rely! To whom had he refer ence! Of course to those who think and vote with him upon those ere at Issues of southern riehts As a member from Tonnessee, it was with deepmortifi ca'.ion and regret that I heard the gentleman from Mastachusetis Mr. JSarlinsramc I eulogize a ten nessce Senator, Mr. Bell, knowing as every one dors, the invetertte hatred which the Massachu setts Representative bears the institutions of my Slate. The Richmond Whig, a leading aati-Lecempton American journal, having argued that the slavery question is settled, siys: " There U now, therefore, no reason under heaven why tlie Opposition, North and outh, l?ast and Vest, may not unite in sup)iO' t of the same policy, and the same candidates, in teC9. And nego tor such union, wiui all our neart ana (oui. The Louisville Journal has been for a year or two advocating the election of Bltck Republicans over sound and national Democrats! " "In view of the existing slate of thinzs, the ne cessity for a recors ruction of parties is apparent," say Bomeof the American papers of the bouth. lhe signs of tho times very clearly indicate that the dis cordant elements of the opposition are going through another smelling process, of which Black Republicanism, northern Know Nothingism, and Anti Lecompton southern Americanism, constitute the component parts. And the honest mis3es will soon be called upon by the professed patriots of this new organization, to unite with them in putting down lhe time lionoicd Democratic party, that has stood the shocks and changes that have swept over the country from the days of Jefferson down to the present moment. What is to be the name of this new party is, perhaps, the most difficult and per plexing question connected with its parturition a parly traveling about in search of a name, like Ja phet for a father. Bui, judging from those who have kindly offered their services to stand at the baptismal lent as god father for the foundling, it is very evident that the South will find as little sym pathy from it as from the bitterest of her sectional foes. The same pen with which Horace Greeley and James Watson Webb invite William H. Seward and Henry Wilson lo a Black Republican jubilee, over the defeat cf the Kansas Lecompton constitu tion, indites, in terms of warm commendation, let ters of invitation to distinguished South American Senators. For the want of a better nlatform. onnosition to the Kansas policy of the Administration', and sup port of the Crittenden-Monip-omery substitute, has been suggested as the basis of union; hoping in the course of time and the progress of events, that they may be able to insert oihcr planks, if the American leaders dare Tick going further in tbat direction before their southern constituency. That portion of the American party whose patriotism rises above the love of party, and who have stood firmly by the Democracy from the beginning of this Kansss epi sode, seeing tho irreconcilable divisions that exist between themselves and the northern wing of tbat I party, and those of the leaders of toe oeuth, who shout ia ils train, and who, through the pride of ambition and hatred to Democracy, would bargain away our dearest interests, have no alternative lef them but cither to disfranchise themselves, or act al once with the Democratic party in resisting the storm of anti slavery that threatens to desolate the South in 18C0. You will either have to vole for the Demoeratio candidate or Black Republican candi date in the next Presidential election. "Chooso ye between them." Will they longer blindly follow in tho lead of such suppliants at the footstool of Abo litionism! From every city and hamlet the indig nant and patriotic shout comes up no 1 never 1 k "It Is abase abandonment of reason to resign yourright of thought." The American party is totally demoralized. Its northern end is abolitionizcd, while the southern wing of it is disintegrated. With this deplorable pictore staring in the face the honest men of i hat now defeated and disbanded party, they must decide to what flag they shall rally; they must either march in the ranks of that rarty which 't carries the flag, and keeps step to the music of theConstiltition and the Union," or they must range themselves under the black banner of sectionalism and ab litionisrr, upon which ia written " eternal hatred to the South." Are you ready lo be lied hand and foot, and handed over to the embittered foes of your sec tion! If you would not, I charge you, by the riehts .and honor of your beloved South by the sovereign ty of fifteen States by the Constitution your fa thers xaade and transmitted to ycu by the glorious ', 1 ; -r-i.ijr"7A.'ii,Miiii, taeraorios that clutter around tae Union itself, to .beware of the osits tbat are now xet to entrap jog, and rsafce you the unconscious instruments ox an unholy ttiuoition.

Let us peiforra the high trusts committed to our hands, with a scrupu lous regara for tho letter of our instructions, attd return our commissions unsullied to the people from whence they emanated. One other wor J, and I conclude. Sir, the South has a solomn duty lo perform; the duty of rebuking the spritof lawless aggression and disregard for law which we see manifested in the recent importation of Africans to our shores. Were I to-day in favor of repealing all laws preventing the African slave trade, I wouid coveflhelesi be opposed to subject ing the South to the approval of a violition or our laws and treaties by gising countenance to smug gling in eargoes of wild Africans I am aware, sir, that Aboliiionism would be delighted lo make upan issue with tbe Democracy upon this question. But that wish will not be graiified. Much as I hate and leathe this Abolition party, let it come in whatever shape or form it may, whetherit comes like the dar ing robber, or noiselessly like the canning and stealthy approach of lhe ibicf, I declare here lo day, as a southern man, my unqualified opposition, as a matter of expedioi cy, to the ie-opniog of the Africtn slave trade, could it be done legally. Not that I have any sickly sentiments cf Black Bepub lican negrophilism that would suggest ils immorali ty; not that I think it shocking to humani'y and outraging to the moral sense of Christendom; for I believe slavery is a moral, social, and political blessing, aud has done more, and will yet da more, under Providence, to enlighten, civilize, and Chris tianize the world, than any hum in institution be-ne-ith lhe sun. Nor not that I would not as soon purchase n slave from the King of Dahomey asfron a Virginia plaster; but I woulddef lore.il on account of the effect it would have upon the South it self. If the African slave trado be reopened, northern cupidity will land then, by the thousand upon our southern coasts ; soon the South will be overrun with wild ravages ; our present docile, cmtmted, happy, and Christian slaves, will either lapse into barbarism or bo froced to flee from their homes, to wLich they are now so much attached. Of course it is viaiooary to suppose that tbis trade will be opined by any act of Congress repealing the laws interdicting it; but the duty which tbe South has to perform, if she would maintain her high position in tbe cjes of the world, and in her own estimation, is to promptly frown down all efforts that are being made, ip. contravention of law, to that end. View ed politically, the South cau never hope lo-regain her lost equilibrium ia the coancils of tlie nation .he ecepLer of power nts departed forever, tiuy, then, make an impracticable demand, as some lew cf our southern citizens are u.ing! sir, the South pUnls herself proudly and fairly upon her constitu licual rizhts ; and if she fall, she will fall in defense of right, of tru'h.andher own spotless honor, and not by the errtr cf ber own aggressions, liie Democratic party contrtlsthe politics of the south ern Stales, and it wilf tet lis face against all viola' tions of law. let them come from any of our people, Ncnh or Scuta. Ke-pect for law is the first duty of a free people; disrobe it of its sanctity, anarchy prevails, and liberty itself is endangered. TO PRINTERS.
