The 1 trail ol the Locompton serpenthas lpgispned ( eyery subsequent act of the Federal ■Administration.. Nothing has been left un lsgiiedby.it. And if the reader will look over ! the, list ,of thpae who support the fusion ticket, i iby which it Is expected to make John !C.

" Hr. Welsh, the chairman of the State Committee; Hr. Bakes, the collector,' 'and Mr. Browse, the postmaster, and their 'affiliated official dependants—Mr. Keiw, of Beading,, and Mr. McDowell, of Harrisburg—-were the open advocates of all these transgressions upon right and decency, anil they, ate now, by a natural transi tion, ' the chief apologists of the fusion electoral ticket. On the other hand, with a number of honorable exceptions, the opponents 'of that great joggle and deception were at all times the opponents of the Kansas policy, and the baleful measures which resulted from it. ' Thus it is that one wrong begets another. .Thus ft is that treason is to be made potential by new treason, and'fwud maintained by fraud. The trail of the serpent is upon the whole system,'and those who’wonld avoid contami nation must see where the serpent has left his poison, and shnn it as a.sure contagion. , Heavy Taxation. There ia a negative consolation in the fact almost every condition of aflairg, bad aa it la, might, have been .worse. Tho profligacy and want of principle exhibited by the Bucha nan Administration since 1857, might nave been crowned With an expensive foreign war 'such' as Lord Palmebstob, by carefully nurs ing the .quarrel since the autumn of 1857, has so adroitly managed to involve England in. Mr. Gcadstohe’s Budget for 1860-1, including about $150,000,000 for the army and navy, amounted to $860,000,000. This is a large sum to be raised in one year, (torn a nation sO impoverished as England now is. With a greater number of millionaires than any other .nation in the world, England also has a pro portionably larger amount of poor people who must pay taxes—of peoplo whose average earnings, for support of themselves and fami lies, is not more than $2 awook for each pater familias in the rural districts, and perhaps flora $2 to' $8 a week in the manufacturing. Taxes these mutt pay. The necessaries of life are taxed, and so are the luxuries. If a ser vant-girl wants to write home to her mother, she does so on a sheet of taxed paper, and puts a two-cents’ Queen head upon the letter to effect its reaching its destination—with ns, by the Way, there is two cents additional charge fog delivery! If the poor man drink a mug ofale, he pays, in its price, taxes upon tlfoTnalCTinilTiOps or which it is made, andj ir it be adulterated, a further item of taxation ilium tho cocuUls iudicue, the quassia, and the Sugar, which are added to give it qualities for intoxication, for bitterness, and for sweetness. .That the English people should have to pay 000,000 for taxes in one year, does seem “ most tolerable and not to be endured.” ' Nor is this all. Hr, Gladstone, the Fi nalise Minister, held out a prospect oi raising a loan of *60,000,000 to *100,000,000 for the purpose of putting the national defences into good condition. Well, at .the close of the present session, down comes Gladstone again, with two ano-' nitilous propositions.' First, that the Lords should be compelled, if the Commons £ould put the screws on, to repeal $7,600,000 of a tax upon paper. Secondly, to raise an ad ditional $19,000,000 for the expenses already incurred, (before a shot has been fired or a blow struck,) in the Chinese war notv on the evo of being prosecuted by Queen Victoria, ini combination with her loving brother and faithful ally, Napoleon the Third, Emperor of ,tho French, as he tells the world, ««by the grace' of God and the will of the nation.” In the last received number of Punch we find on engraving which, we dare say, pretty aqrrectly expresses popular opinion in Eog- this .W demand. It is called I "The We»< Paper-welght,” and represents John. Bull, inSfco traditional buckskins and top boots, sitting (iown in the quiet' pernsal of his newspaper. In com**.the eternal Pal jfCn*ro.v, who jauntily plaaes' upon the table a now paper-weight, representing a Chinese idol squatting upon a marble plinth inscribed £4,000,000. Palmerston’s coolness, as, with a bit of straw in his month, and figure slightly bent forward, be smilingly points to the ex pensive little idol, is in felicitous contrast with tho extreme anger of Hr. Bull, who stamps his feet with great indignation, and appears as if nothing would give him more delight than -to inflict personal chastisement upon Pam. This may be an amusing joke for the reader of Punch , but it is likely to bci a very sad reality for the English people. The money which Hr. Gladstone demands will be voted by a House of Commons w'hlch does not repre sent the people or commons of England. That additional burthen will raise the taxation of Great Britain for 1860 1 to $379,000,000, to which must be added $30,000,000 for the cost of collection.' Here is a total Of $409,000,000 to be raised by Englishmen in ope year, with a pretty good chance of further demands on account of the Chinese War. Badly as public affairs have been managed at Washington, we have, as yet, been spared the expense' of a war. .

Syria by the Druses, aided'and abetted to some ex tent b/the troops of the Turkish'Government and by the Mahommedan population generally, have" awakened deep indignation in all Chris tian lands. France, England, Russia, and Austria have already taken official steps for the protection of the unfortunate beings who at last accounts had still been spared, but who were in imminent peril. As a number of de voted American missionaries have been labor ing in and near the scene of the recent out rages, some of them too have probably ore this been killed, and others are in great tlanger, so that our own Government should also take prompt measures for the protection of its distant citizens. These difficulties appear to have first openly commenced in May last, when a vio lent attack was made by the Druses upon a Jlaronito village, many acts of bloodshed per petrated; and a considerable portion of the po pulation destroyed. Since then the forces of the former, have been strengthened, and their fe rocious spirit stimulated by the aid and encour agement they have received from the great body of Mohammedan population, and after attack- ; ing and destroying in the most brutal manner several minor towns, they are reported to have assaulted Damascus, the chief city of Syria, 1 and to bavo threatened Beirut. The fairest part of what constituted the American mis sionary field in Syria has been devastated. - Hasbeoyah was' treacherously surrendered by the commander of tho Turkish troops, and given up to plunder and burning; over one thousand men who wore unarmed and unre sisting were massacred; a beautiful mis sionary, church was burnt, and thoso who worshipped in it wero nearly all destroyed. Two other towns, Rasheeyah and Zahleb, have shared a similar fate., A massacre of a portion ol tho Christians of Damns cus is also reported to have' taken place and' five hundred ol them are said to have been killed. Previous advices stated that strenuous efforts were then being made for its preservation by the famous Algerino chief, Add-el-Kadkr, who bad organized an efficient corps, which patrolled the city day and night. Damascus contains a population of about 160,- 000, comprising 180,000 Mahommedans and Druses, 15,000 Christians, and 6,oooJews. It could doubtless have easily been defended against an.attack of the mountain tribes of Druses if its own large Mahommedan popula tion had not warmly sympathized with them in their hatred of the Christians. But if the fiend of religions intolerance was unohainedi in a community thus constituted, tho massacre of tho Christians was probably almost Uni versal. Beirut is also reported to bo in imminent danger, but as it is a seaport town, and foreign vossels-of-war are anchored there, wo trust tho lives of all its Ohristianß will be ssrcd, although their assailants were hovering near the town, and the local Mahommedan population was very much embittered against them. The Americans had resolved to retire to tho American printing establishment on the first signal of an outbreak, as It is a species of castle in itself, and to go on board the vessela of-war if any assaults wero commenced by the infuriated fanatics. The Druses are a singular religious sect, which is supposed to have been founded about 1020, by a Mahommedan fanatic or heretic. The chief feature of their creed is an intense Uiiitarianism, and although they adopt por tions of the Old Testament and Jewish reli gion, of the Koran and Mahommedan creed, and of the Now Testamont and Chris tian creed, they agree fully with neither, and have a peculiar faith of their own. They do not soek to make proselytes, and even endeavor to maintain a profound secrecy, ex cept among the initiated portions of their members, concerning their real faith; but some of their books have at different times ionnd their way into the libraries of Europe, and from these an exposition of their doc trines has been obtained. They have no re gular paid priests, but tbeir most faithfbl and triedmembers, after undergoing due probation, Uke charge of their religious interests, in a manner somewhat similar to tho customs pre vailing among the Society of Friends in our oivu State. Their whole nuTlibutMu Syria has been estimated to bo about 70,000. Having st different periods been persecuted by tho Mahommedans, engaged in many wars with their rivals, tho Maronites, and repeatedly called to take up arms in self-defence, they are • essentially a warlike race, and every boy be comes, at an early age, expert in the use of tho 1 1 nco, the dagger, tho sword, and the gun. They )i ave been, il possible, more tenacious in pre serving their peculiar religion, even when completely surrounded by the influence of other sects, than the Jows. The Maronites are also a warlike people, every man being almost constantly armod, and ready to defend himself or country from attack. They are a sect of Eastern Christians, first formed, it is supposed, about the conclu sion of the seventh century. They differed from tho church of that era, by contending that tho Saviour, although ho might bo sup posed to have two wills because he had two natures, had, in reality, only ono will, because it was absurd to suppose there should bo two freo wills in one and the same persob. This heresy fell undor the condemnation of a Ge neral Connell in 680, because it was supposed to destroy tho humanity of Jesus Christ, de priving it of will and operation. The Syrian mountaineers having embraced it under the t . achings of an ecclesiastic named Johh Mabo, the name of Maronites has ever since adhered to them. In the twelfth century they re nounced their former distinctive faith, and then became subject to tho jurisdiction of tho Pope, for whom they have great reverence. but their priests still marry, as in ancient times, and they elect a local religious ruler, with tho title of batrak, or patriorch of An tioch. Independent of the interest which these massacres have created on account of the lively sympathy which Christians everywhere naturally feel tor religious brethren who have been so cruelly assailed, a deep political in terest has been excited, because., the whole Turkish question has been called up in a now shape. It will be recollected that one of the chtoi causes which Russia assigned for her re cent war against was, that that por tion of her population which had embraced the faith of the Greek Chnrch, and therefore look ed to the Czar for succor, was shamefully per secuted. France and England, in uniting to shield the “ sick man ” from the destruction which would have been inevitable, if they had not extended to him their effective assistance, obtained from the Suiters the most solemn pledges that his Christian subjects should be fully protected. Tbo late events in Syria show that these pledges hare been violated in the most shocking and lamentable manner. The Sultan either would not or conld not fili al them. In either event a necessity for prompt and effective action exists, which France, under her astute ruler, Lows Nai>o_ leon, as the natural protector oi the Maron ites, is not only willing, but eager, for ulterior political purposes, to undertake. Even Eng. land, which has so long upheld Turkey, as a barrier on the north against Russian aggran dizement, and on the south against French ambition, has been startled by recent events, and compelled to admit the infamous imbe cility, to call it by no harsher name, of the Turkish Government. And, it can scarcely bo doubted, sinco so deep and jnst a feeling of indignation has been aroused, that the pro tection of the Christians of Syria, including our American missionaries to that country, will bo secured, ovon if it becomes necessary to wrest it from the Sultan.

THE PRESS.—PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, JULY 31 1860. Buying Goods of New York. If thero is a commercial disparity existing botweon Philadelphia and Now York in favor of tho latter, wo believe It is mainly attributa ble to the laxity of our peaple in not being sufficiently Philadelphian in spirit. Notwith standing New York is inferior to us in wealth and cbaractor, she is said to bo annually making inroads' upon our commerce, and doubtless does so by her audacity and misre presentation ; so that, in fact, between brass and gold, the formor, in mercantile affairs, seems to bo the winning metal. The practice oi f Now York firm? Selling goods by sample in All our,. wholesale business thoroughfares, as Ihoy are doing every day, in violation of law, iwd to tho detriment ol our own commission houses, is an insult to our mercantile sagacity, and should ho speedily remedied. • Tho argu ments against Philadelphia merchants allowing themselves to become. tributary to hor most insidious rival in this way are overwhelming, as every thinking business man will admit. Philadelphia has an incalculable interest in sustaining and augmenting the number of her first-class commission houses; yet this cannot be successfully done by her merchants in the ’other branches of trade buying goods in Now ;York, which could bo purchased with equal advantage in our own market. In all domestic fabrics Philadelphia prices are lower than tho samp goods command in Now York, for obvi ous reasons, and yet casos are not unlYequent in which packages of goods aro sold to. New -York houses, by our commission mon, and subsequently resold to Philadelphia at an ad vanced price! Several, jobbing merchants have within a few days called our attention to this impolitic business course, and it must bo admitted that jobbers havo no less interest than the commis. sion men in correcting it, for in proportion as Philadelphia ceases to be a “ first hands” mercantile emporium will she sniftr in hor dis tributing interests., Tho stocks of our commission houses at the present time are complete, and ready for busi ness, and a number of largo bills have already been sold to early buyers from tbe South and West. Upon the whole our business prospects never looked more flattering. The trade is not, expected to ho remarkably heavy, but it will be healthy. Tho largo crops al ready gathered, and comparatively light im portations, cannot hut contribnto to this ro Butt, But lot Philadelphia merchants be tree to Philadelphia interests, and not patronize New York runners—whose whole stock in trade is their pattern cards—to the detriment of our own traders, who sustain Philadelphia capital by renting stores. Lot it be once un. derstood that every violation of law in this partlcnlar shall meet its due legal penalty, and that Philadelphia merchants patronizing New York in this way, are regarded as untrue to her interests, and the mortifying mistako of somo of our merchants here referred to will bo corrected, and not until then. WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE. Letter from “Nox.” [Correspondence of The Frees.] Groat solioitade is felt by the Brookinridge men in regard to the vote of the adopted oitieens in the Southern States, which is very considerable in Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Louisiana, Vir ginia, and Texas. It is said that hardly ope of them will oast his vote for the Seoeders. -They are unanimous in supporting Stephen A. Douglas for tho Prorldenoy. Knowing tbe difference be tween a despotic and free country by experience, they wilt be the last to assist a handfnl of Die unionists to destroy our Union—the soureo of ali onr liberty, prosperity, and happiness. Besides, there is no man living who Inspires them with so much enthusiasm as the " little (iisnt ” This love aod attachment of the adopted citizens for Douglas is the secret why Mayor Wood, of New York, has found it convenient to declare in favor of Douglas. Having been elected by the German and Irish votes, Fernando, knowing that they are ail for Douglas,-did not dare to aot against their wishes; for if he had, he would soon have found himself in tho position of a general without an army. Breck inridge has not tho smallest oialm to the support of adopted oitieens His speech at Oynthiana in 1856 is not forgotten.

There exists a great deal of ill-feeling among tbo members of the Breckinridge Committee on account of tho military tone assumed by its chair man, Gov. I, I. Stevens, of Oregon.

In oonsrquonoo of this disagree ment, some of tho members of the National Com mittee have been talking of resigning, a laudable plan to which tho Governor has given his hearty applause.

Washington, July 30.—Whllo largo clerical forces are employed at tho headquarters respect ively of tho Breoktnridgo, the Douglas, tho 8011, and tho Lincoln parties, in dlreotlng and sending a*.,y campaign documents and speeches, the offi. cers or 4j.« United States Agricultural Society ore equally lndnswlpnaly engaged in sending to all parts or the Union premium lists and circulars of tho grant National w-kjbltion, which 1s to bo hold at Cincinnati, in fSepwubor. Tho political matter goes free, under tho frans»< tho members of Congress wbo remain here The Coast Survey Office and the Smithsonian In stitute are investigating the eubjeot of tornados, stimulated by those of rooent occurrence in the West. An efficient officer connected with the coast survey has been detailed to visit the scenes of tbeir effects, for tho procuring of snob data as to geo graphy, etc., as will aid the solentlfio examination. Although no proclamation has yet been made as to the result, there is reason to believe that tbe joint commission has come to tbe conclusion that Paraguay is not responsible for indemnity to the United States and Paraguay Navigation Company, whioh claimed damages to the extent of nearly a million of dollars, exclusive of the alleged viola* tion of grants of important and very valuable pri vileges. The Savannah has been ordered to the Medi terranean as a part of the American squadron, with out reference to the maseaorcs in Syria. The steamship Richmond, Captain Ingraham, it is said, having volunteered to take command, would have been ordered thither if she could havo been prepared in time for servioe in that son The steamship Brooklyn left Pensaoola on Wed nesday, for Norfolk. Offioial despatches from Utah show that a hun dred army revolvers and eight thousand cartridges were furnished by tho aeting Adjutant General to the agent of Russell’s Pony Express, to defend the riders from tho Indians.

Tho difficulties whioh have arisen in regard to tbe House printing are amicably adjusiod. Governor Ford, the House printer, returned to day, and all parties to the controversy have agreed upon a settlement. Mr. Pangborn, whose authority is reoognlzed. remains as the legal representative and agent of Governor Ford, to superintend tho business, and Messrs. Latcombe and English are employed to execute ;the printing. The House printing will now be speedily executed. Forty thousand copies of the Covode report will bo immediately distributed. Senator Douglas at Burlington* Vt. Bublixqtok, Vt., July 30 —Senator Douglas arrived in this olty to-day, and was greeted with much enthusiasm by the citieons. He was escorted by the Howard Guard and a large procession to the Town Hall, where Mr. John G. Saxo intro duced him to an audience of 5,000 persons. Mr. Douglas made* brief acknowledgment of the pleasure he felt at so warm a reception. He Bubseauently entertained his friend? at the Ameri o«& Hotel, and left for Montpelier this evening. Washikotos, July 30, 1860. George K. Sandors to President Bu chanan. New YobK, 30th July, lKtlO. Sib : The popular mind inelinos to tho sentiment that national solf-rospeot should shield tho position Of President from any exposure of tho delinquen cies of the incumbent. The Constitution declares otherwise, and, In your case, it Is most healthy for the public, to advanco to the constitutional limit. You have, besides, voluntarily entered the lists of partisan discussion, inviting all tho consequences ojf the position. . „ ~ , . ,'Yeur cumulative, infidelity to the oountry, which has brought us to our present disintegrating con dition, >&b shadowed forth In the beginning of your Administration, by base ingratitude to Indl ! viduals. Step by step, friend after friend was sacrificed. The fact os a previous obligation chlll ed you; great sorvioo made any one odious. A President should have no animosities. You are i governed only by your bates, affcotlon you have none. But two classes have any bold upon you— those who had opposed and reviled and cowed you, and the eupplo parasites who fawn upon you. Yet, oven these cannot bo devoted if they would. For the course which is settled on to-day Is obanged by your VAoillatlng mind to-morrow, and on the-raor row the zig-zag programme Is changed again. You even endeavor to pursue two opposite courses at once. 'Witness your open instructions to Gov. Walker,'And your private instructions to tho Sur veyor General, end other officials in Kansas. Wit ness your late declaration: “ Therefore, every De mocrat is At perfeot liberty to vote as ho thinks S roper,” and your secret olroular ordering the lsmissal of every office-holder in favor of Dou glas. Witness your contradictory declarations in regard to the rights of naturalized oitlzens aboard. Contradiction upon contradiction! Not only the political, but tho social atmosphere of Washington is poisoned by the upas of your in flashes. Such ia your pornioiona course, that.the White House is made uuoomfortable for visitors by the obtrusion of violous politics into your parlors, ft should be tho patriotic pride of every Adminis tration to mako Washington a centre of intellectual brilliancy. But, instead of communing with the best minds of the oountry, and informing yourself .freshly from its different sections, you make tho recesses of tho Presidential mansion labyrinths of espionage, wbero the Chief Magistrate sits greedily receiving petty reports of defection among his en slaved office-holders. The wisest and moat honored qun of country avoid Washington as a moral pest-house. The Nero |lke perfidy io individuals , which characterised your Administration from the begin ning, sow marks its close by the betrayal of tho mat and generous party that has fostered you by Ititl<Cdrto impregnable organization, from your early days of FeiferaHst-apostaoy,- down to your last hours of treasonable ingratitude and disunion, in the Presidential chair., Mover did ft man owe bo much to s party—never was a party so wantonly betrayed. False alike to persons and party, you have not thought of either but for tho shallowest instincts of self. •- It is a favorite thought and expression with you that the Federal officers are your personal property. How often have the monooratio words, ” my secre taries, wiy office-holders,” grated upon theinaiguaut ears of Amerioan citizens assembled in the presence chamber at the White House I Even the European despotic formula qualifies itself by tho less arro gant use of tho plural. Instead of inculoatlng the ennobling Idea that -their first duty is to thefr country and to Democrats principle, your rule holds officials to a degrading aabeorviocoy; there is not a man of your appointment from Cablnot miriffltor to tide-waiter who does not live la a state of daily irritation and protest, under your grind ing rule- Offices, raoo, patronage, and public money are All classed as your property. * Thoro is scarcely a contract made under the Government in whioh you do not actively participate: noton the side of the people, but for some follower, as in stanced in your divisions and' sub-divisions of the profits on tho Post Office blank printing. The thought never etruok you that it was your duty to save the excess over a reasonable profit, instead of disreputably dividing it among your favorites. Your small politics keep you always in some imagi nary administration orlsia, and constantly on the look-out for vaoant positions for the reward of your partlsansof tho moment. Positions ofcousequenoe are thus not appreciated by you, and are often thrown away or overlooked, whilst inferior posi tions are swelled into places of importance. Wit ness your reoont varied attempts to get rid of the Paraguay commission, in pursuance of your tactics to lower superior men by offering them ieferior positions. Tho antithesis Is seen In the dragging of the sacred ermine of the Supreme Bench into the dust of party arena, to reward your Jeffreys for his famous decisions and sneaking desertion as Preridentof the National Convention. You have in your Cabinet gentlemen •who bad a right to look ferward to the position you occupy; btit following the dictates of a selfish ambition, you have systematically endoarored to weaken every distinguished man of the party who aspired to be your successor. Repeating your worn out expedient of pompously retiring from tho contest, yon favored no one, but clung to the idea that you might prolong, your roign another four years by levelling tho obanoes of others- The extraordinary seel which you manifested in your advoo&ey of the Lecompton Constitution was prompted principally by the desire of breaking down the formidable rf* 'valshfp of Fobort J 7 Walker. Tho triumphant success of Gov. Walker’s brave eloquenoe and skilful statesmanship in Kansas, excited the low pasaions Of your naturo It was then that every appliance of fraud aDd force was ereoted into a tuaobine of corruption, For the. past twelve months yon have nervously watched tho Presiden tial field, driving back any aspirant who appeared to be advancing too rapidly.' Instead of laying aside selfish views, and pa triotically coming to the rescue of tho Domooraoy at the recent Oonveotioo, you formed an executive and Congressional cabal, to force upon the people a dictatorial nomination, an 1 ft platform of unrea* sonable and impracticable Issues- A .powerful. Compact minority ot rsonas** asu B »tcs } Federal retainers flagrantly misrepresenting their con stituencies, and in many oases voting against direct Instructions, felled, however, to shake tho true representatives of the people, who would, perhaps, have, indeed, been justified In bolting a nomina tion accomplished by means so nefarious. Yet not in the darkest hours of tho fierce bottles at Charles ton and Baltimore—the only fields In which the Fedeswl Executive and Congressional cabal had a partial* of power—did the representatives of the people for one moment contemplate abandoning the Convention. That snob a man, and the clique around him, should seduce any large portion of delegates into tho mad act of secession, gives only the greater valuo to our olasilc Institutions, which so rapidly return the unfaithful magistrate to the comparative barmlessnoss of private life. Tho hallucination under which you and your coadjutors have been laboring, however, that National Con ventions oould be controlled by Sxeoutlve and Senatorial stratagem, was dispelled by the triumph of the people at Baltimore. The Cincinnati platform was good enough for you, with James Buchanan, that upright, unde* vUting statesman upon it; but tho brave and true Douglas, because he was not your mouth*pieco and shadow, needed a more strlngont rulo. You wero very earnest during your own canvass, in declara tion# of the necessity of your elootion upon the Cincinnati platform to aavo tho country. You thought the election of Fremont over yourself and that declaration of, principle, was Sufficient oause for tho dissolution of the Union. Now, with its provisions strengthened, yon, as President, are aiding Lincoln with all your oiled taaoblnery. It wllfr bo difficult, however, for you to oonvinoe the nation that the institutions of the country would be any safer under Lincoln than they would have been under the less fanatical Fre • mont. Instead of heavily taxing your offico-hold ors to initiate Breckinridge fiokets North, it would be brave and generous, comparatively, the result being the same, to order them to go direct for Lin- Your hands reeking with Demooratio gore, you thus essay to deliver over the betrayed South into the tolls of Republican intervention. Your Administration will be marked in history as tho fometitor of anarchy and oivil war- There is nothing so bale thatyeu would notdo to protong your pow er ; madness seems to possess you—to have no suc cessor, to leave no Government behind you—like the miser who olpiehea hia bag of gold in his dying hour, and refuses even to will it to another, lest it should loosen his hold upon it in his last moments. When tho Democratic party was in the throes of its present dismemberment, and you were tele graphed of the faot—a fact which would have awakeoed painful emotion In tbe heart of any ho nest Democrat—the only excitement visible in your sordid nature was intense rage at tho cost of the despatch. InoAflgraous associations always accompany poli tical Irregularities. The Administration having dragged the party Into the .vortex of fire, carries with it from the North to tho feet of tho Disunion lots, the place-men, tho men spoiled by long official life, imbedded fossils, incapable of arousing them selves to the imminence of the occasion. Tbe young, brave, and gallant patriots at tbe North are on the side of Douglas and the country—it Is the mi litia of *7fl against George 111. It is the revolu tion of ’9B against John Adams and old Federal ism. ' At the seat of government of the States in their united majealy, In a city called for the Father of h ‘ a oountry, tne presoroe of whose spirit wo oan readily Jmagi**, “Indignantly frowping upon tho Attempt to*lienato quo portion of our countrymen from, the rest,” was whaled a few evenings stpoe. the speotnolo of his ( mccto*cor inaugurating a dWUion of his own party—the lam thtoo natloial that the strife of antagonistic interests j e ft us a people; the morale of the position Is so low that no honorable mind oan fathom Its turpitude, Tbe journals inform us that fire hundred thousand copies of this address ore to be franked through the mall to the people. Ton tnousand dollars' worth of bread snatched from your unfortunate office-holders—to many of whom submission or suffering for themselves not only, butfor a helpless parent, wife, children, Is the only alternative. ' Not to speak of the ethics of the whole transao tion, the speech Is logically a tangled absurdity. Here stands tho “ rule or ruin ” chief of Secession, prating of a united Democracy. Of equality—and what equality has he recognized but the equality of a base submission ? Of equity—ho, the nurre of fraud on the ballot-box. Of union—-the tool of the Disuuioniits.' But the essence of your false life and cheating words Is found (n the next paragraph: “ Every Democrat la at liberty to votoashe thinks proper. " Cheers from the crowd of your poor office-holders, who; of oourso, supposed you meant them; not dreaming that even yon could have so far forgotten yourself as to inform tho sovereign citizens that (hey wero still at liberty to “ vote as they thought proper.” Having broken up the Convention to prevent the nomination of Douglas, and the adop tion . of the .Cincinnati platform, you then, From the windows of the White House, take a survey of i the Baltimore and Blobmond candidates and plat forms, and coolly tell the Democracy, that it is u immaterial” which way they go. The “ sustaining pillar, ” the “ two-thirds rnlo, was ” you say, “ broken to pieces at Baltimore by tho Convention which nominated Mr. Douglas No! it was endangered by tho unseomly dictation and treacherous combinations of the “ old public func tionary ” who obtained his positiou In that Con vention four years by tho loyal magnanimi ty of that Mr. Douglas. You take care, however, , to say, nothing of the part you played lu that transaction. Cunning is the lastfaoulty thatleaves the disordered mind. The minority that you mar shalled did not believe that they could defeat the nomination of Mr. Douglas by remaining in tho Convention, Ot they oertalnly w< uld havo staid. It was well known to the minority oblefs that Douglas would havo received the two-thirds of the entiro Convention at Charleston, had there been no se cessfon.Sf Butfthe non-intervention party, unwilling to take » nomination except by a two-thirds voto of all the States, adjourned the Convention to Bal timore. Failing in your plot to make a nomination upon compulsion at Charleston, you redoubled your efforts at Baltimore to effeot It or destroy the party. Your efforts may result in the election of Lincoln j but, in any event, you will receive the condemnation of the Democracy of the civilized world for all time. Influenced by your leading 1 idea of the subservienoy of the people’s Convention : to Congressional and Executive dictation, you un- I wittingly state that if your plans had been success fcl, no nomination oould hare bteo powiblo against » the will of whom ? tbe people ? Not at all, against tbe will of “ Congress.” Did regretful siienoo and modest reserve now in dicate in you 6omo sense of the errors of your ad ministrative course, a feeling for our past rela tions, and that consideration for old age which is duo, in Innocence or helplessness, would have claimed thought from me. But your insane Inter meddling and arrogant dictation, from the posi tion yon occupy, with the patronage you wield, make it inoumbent upon overy patriot who knows you to expose your infirmities, that yonr deceptive words may have no undue weight, falling from tho lips of the President of the United States. Your repeated declaration in London that you were too ola for the Presidency was but too true. Had I then known your real age, and some points of cha racter revealed by tbe touch-stone of power, I should have avoided my share in the error of your elevation. Your present shattered condition of mind has, however, undoubtedly been pre oinitfttsd by tho accession of a responsibility which to your view involved only the exercise of a 1 wilful and domineering authority. Uprightness of heart would bavo saved you even amid the shadows of a declining intolleot; but your moral obliquity deprivod you of every stay which tbe virtuous mind possesses against mental weakness. Io old ago tho vices and idiosyncrasies of youth, it is said, often roaume their sway, over long years of in terested repression Your prophetic quotation against yourself six years ago has been realized but too Badly for your oountrymen; would its ful filment bad found you In tho oblivion of Wheat land, instead of In the chair of Jefferson: “ In life’s last state. what prodigies arise— Fean of the brave.
