Tho uuuko and dust raised by tho leud
rn of rebellion at Wah!ngtoit, seem to
have bliuded the eyei of hirgo porliun of
Congress, at well a thousands of tlifl com.
raoi populace, u to tho real cauiut that
Imvo produced the present crisis. I Ion.
Henry Winter Davis, of Maryland, In a
rnusturly speech on the State of tho Union,
U tho onljr man In Congress, m fur ai wo
tiara seen, who baa taken the Lull of avecs
atou by the horns, and shown us how the
brute, which wui only a weak, lousy culf
In 1833, bai grown up Into hie present
lusty projMjrtlofia. II tells us that for
more than thirty years tho heart liai been
butting and goring and sorklug this great
American nation till he has mado her give
down about the luit drop of tho milk
of honesty kho had, and then drawn the
very life's blood out of tier by muklng Lor
yield what alio po4sosscd of moral principle,
and public virtue. Mr. Davis takes a tru
ly comjiroliomiro and stutcstnanliko view
of tho whole subject, when he traces our
present political maludics to a general mar.
at debasement of a largo portion of the
American people This Is precisely tho
conviction that has been forced ujmmi as
wbonever wo haro surveyed the whole field
of rebellion, and carefully noted the mollcy
forces of secession, rallied by Southern
luadori, and followed by Northern sutlers
and scavengers, with Garrison and Phillips
as chaplains, praying for the army, In tho
distance. Tho present aggravated form of
tho discern called a ' crisis' by political
doctors, but which Is nothing more nor less
thun a great moral leprosy, which has scab
bed over tho wholo Surface of tho body
politic, we havo long since predicted would
Ih the result of tho nuuiplo and teaching
of high functionaries at Washington, with
tho endorsement they received by stunt
spouting demagogues nnd pensioned sec
tional presses all over tho land. Let us
rapidly glanco at somo of tho teachings
and practices of tho leaders of a party
which, up to tho moment of its demise,
was, ns was truly averred by Senator
Hammond of South Carolina, "ruled by
Southern slavery." Let ns, after glancing
at a few of tho teachings and practices of
the sluvo power, look for a moment ut
somo of Its fruits.

instinctive idea that they were being led

they bad already admitted the principle,
they all meekly bowed their assent.)

" It follow, of course," rcjoudcd tho
class.

public projicrty to tho United StaU-s, re
solved themselves out of tho Union, seized
the forts and arsenals within their reach,
robbed the Government mints, made prizes
of vessel belonging to private citizens,
fired Into an unarmed vessel In the employ
of tho United States; and all this concoct

officers still holding their place under the
Government, yet leaving Wellington tem

ITS TKACIIINUg.
When disunionisui, ever Intent on de
stroying the American Union, found itself
baffled in its purpose of building up a for-
niidublo disunion party on the tariff issue,
which was too weak a hobby to bear tip
eveu South Carolina In 1832, resolved to
make a hobby of tho shivery question, it
noted wisely it was a master-stroko of
policy, well worthy of the political sagacity
of men who have studied polities as a trade.
They snw that with skillful management
slavery could bo mado to bear tlio very
fruit they desired. Tho first lesson tho
professors in tlio collego of treason gave
their pupils, was, lliut all the old teaching
of tho founders of tho Government, which
they themselves had always admitted was
r17tf, must now he set asido as wrong.
Here the wholo class in college Lowed as
sent, uud oponed their mouths for lesson
.-number one.
"Wo havo hitherto made a mistako"
(said thi professors) " in admitting that
slavery is an etii wo haro discovered that
it is a social, mornl, mid political blessing."
" Yes, yes," responded tho class, " we
boo that plainly."
" Wo have made another mistako In ad
mitting that slavery rested wholly and en
tirely for its uuthority on local State- law,
we now believo that it is found in the
Bible ond the Constitution." say tho pro
fessors. Horo tho political class winco a
littlo, pauso, mid look sheepishly at each
other, and then reluctantly drawl out
"Y-a-s-s."
" Wo made a great mistake also," soy tho
professors, " in askiug for the Missouri
Compromise line as it excludes slavery
from all territory north of 30 30'. It is
unjust to tho South, and wo must go for
Its repeal."
(Hero the class looked sulky, and shook
their heads.) " Now" (soys Douglas) " do
not understand that this is a pro-slavery
movo nt all wo wish to wipe out this lino
merely becauso it is a ' badgo of dishonor
to the South.' We propose to mnko ' my
great principle,' that Is, Me right of self
government, tho rulo in all tho territories,
and 1 raw the people thereof free to regulate
their own domestic institutions in their own
if oy.' ' Slavery will always bo governed by
' toil, climate, uud roluctioHst, and the
' soil, climato, nnd productions' pertainin
to all territory north of 36 30', aud most
of it south of that line, being unfriendly to
slavery, slavery will never teek to go there
in the face of this fundamental law of
nature."
Here the whole class Involuntarily broke
out in a big guf faw, tickled each other's
ribs, and shouted, " Hurrah for Squatter
Sove-reai'y "
" Now" (wiy the professors), " having
admitted that men are governed solely in
tho matter of slavery-extension by the an
swer to the question ' Will it pay? it is but
natural to suppose that this is a general
rule of condact, and we must all be right
fully governed by golden rule number 2
the class, while tho rest aro mum.
" Well, then," continue the teacher, " If,
after ho get there, the Vermouter has a
right to have his jackass protected by ait,
hasn't tho Georgian tho right to have his
nigger protected by law, tour
" u cannot see why lie suoulJn t, on
swer a itortion of the pupils.
" And If," continue the professors, " the
wn of a Territory fuil or refuse to pro
tect tho Georgian's constitutional rights,
isn't it tho duty of Congress to protect
them?" i
Of course," Is heard faintly from a
portion of tho class, whilo a few pauso to
let a vague idea Hit through their minds
(hut if the common law protects property
in jackasses, aud doesn't protect projicrty
in niggers, but a special law of Congress
is necessary to protect eluvc projicrty, then
sluvo projicrty, inxteud of resting on the
same basis es other projicrty, lias worked
itself up to rather a h'jhrr ' basis.'
" Well, now," soy tho professors, " If
Congress refuses to give tho South their
constitutional rights, by protecting slavery
in nil tho Teiritories, huxu't the South the
right to withdraw from the Union, nnd
break up a government which denies to
them their constitutional rights?"
Hero all such pupils ns the orgtin-griiid
era of lireekinridgo and Lnno mutter,
" Ya s s" while a part of the class woke
np to tho idea that they have already gone
(piito fur enough in letting slavery through
tho bars of " State luir," to warp tho
Constitution, overrido moral justice, and
thrust n.sido tho "fundamental law of na
ture" as written in "soil, cliinute, and
productions," without nsscnting to its right
to overturn tho Government, and bury
thirty millions of jieojilu in 0110 common
ruin. This class of juijiils rcily "No,"
nnd forthwith ' secede' from tho Demo
cratic school, while tho remainder find
themselves Imperceptibly nnd slowly carried
on the slavery hobby into the camp of
treason,
Thcso ore a few of tho tenchings that
have degraded and demoralized the coilc,
Now let us glanco rnjiidly ut a few of the
rRACTICKS
of thoso who Imvo endorsed them. The
first was the election oflucliatinu by fraud.
Tho fate of tho November election In 1S5C
was decided by tlio Pennsylvania October
election, uud that election was carried by
tho fraudulent voting of unnaturalized
foreigners, who hud been furnished with
irnuuiiieut naiuriiiiziitioii impels, as was
sworn to by Democrats before tho Covodo
Committee. Tho next net of infamy was
attenipted subjugation of Kansas by feder
al ollicinls and federal bayonets, nnd tho
attempt to forco shivery oj tho people
against their will. '1 his act of infamy, a
violation of natural right, of constitutional
guaranties, and every uiiiciilo of honor
and common honesty, Involved on n smull
1... h .1 .1 . . . .
sum, mi 1 no elements 01 iiensou tue cio-
detnorulizcd and tuboidized pre at the
North excuning, encouraging, and Justify
ing theso act. Men have been pouted at
these presses with a special view to their
fitness for preparing the public mind to
excuse tli blackest of crime. Tbey bsvo
picked up a partisan editor men a de
void of couscleuce, patriotism, and moral
honesty a monkeys. Abolition amalga
matioiiist who hate tho Union, bummers
around coffee-houses, bartenders In saloons
and houses of infumy, havo been impressed
Into the servico of scattering weekly issues
of newspapers among tho peojilo, whose
oflico has lieen to sneer at conscience, scoff
nt houor aud common honesty, jeer at all
higher and nobler principles of action than
those that govern ilratcs, stab religion in
tho buck, excite sectionul animosity and
huto, create a morbid symjiathy among
their readers for everything dishonest, rot
ten, mean, and cowardly. Such have been
some of Ihc fruiti of the teaching of the pro
slavery disunion!!!, all ovor tho land,
and tho example set at Washington City;
that men, who would have naturally been
staid and passably resicctublo citizens,
havo turned out to following stealing, for
gery, incest, Jierjury, highway robbery, and
murder, guthered up by tho wtysido on
tlio road to treason as so many flower to
bo wrought into a bouquet as a suitable of
fering to the black and smoking demon of
Disunion, enthroned on a pyramid built uj
of four millions of niggers. All tho hojo
thut treason uow has for a capitulation
with tho Government, or for even 0 short
lived existence, is thut tho agencies it has
been using for tho lust thirty years, haro
been effectual in reducing the American
jcoilo to a position whero they will stand
up before tho civilized world ns degenerate
sous of noblo sires unworthy of liberty,
and uniiblo to appreciate tho blessings of a
free government, and as having reached a
very low depth of moral debasement.
Jexxinos llECAPTinKii. Tho letter of

nation vastly in debt In petting nnd pen
sioning those, and thoso only, who were
willing to bo active tools of Southern dis-

put its foot on slaveholders themselves, in
a slave State, who were not willing to la

THE KRIIT3
nro simply these: Treason is now in or
ganized, armed, and active rebellion
against the Government, claiming a con
stitutional authority for that which four
years ago was acknowledged by all to be a
crime justly atoned for by death. The
authority of the Government to defend its
own existcuce is denied. High functiona
ries of the Government at Washington,
ttrom to protect it and paid to do so, hare
for months been transporting the United
States arms and munitions from Northern
arsenals into tho camp of rebellion, with
the kuowledge that these anus were to be
cd conversion of a greasy jiieco ol brown
wrnpiiiig-pnjier into a bunk note. Gree
ley's sentences nro all written in good
King's English, and contain somo sense,
while tlio forged paragraphs attributed to
him all show tho car-marks of the brainless
blockheads that jiroduco them.
Boi-so Over. On Thursday morning

sum of $1200 to appear at the next term of

tho accused was committed.
New Tkrritoiiies. At tho lato session

On March 14th, news was received nt

havo arrested them, and if found guilty on
tiiul, ho would huvo executed them. The
Senator (Mr. Lune) alludes to my "stuff
in''" Tor my speech, lie would ask, In re
ply, how often has that Senntor been stuff-
111?, and how often has ho been stuffed?
If tho stuffinir was as laborious as tho de
livery, ho (Mr. Lone) had os sorrowful
timo of it. The Senator hud spoken of his
(Mr. Johnson's) "triumphant ignorance
and exultant stupidity," nnd had talked
about Ins own " mind." Ho (jur. John
son) would not dignify that Senator's qual
ification with tho title of "mind." Allud
ing to tho vote of tho 25th of May hist,
when tlio Senate, with three dissentients
only, declared that the condition of the
Territories of tho United States respecting
slavery did not require nny further lep;islu
lion on tho part ol Congress, Mr. Johnson
said thut tho oenntor from Orcein (Air.
Lane) though a Northern Senntor, linii be-
como more bout hern thou tho South her
self. Such excessive devotcdness always
laid itself open to tho suspicion of hypocri
sy, further, the Senators great readiness
to break up the Union is because ho faded
in being elected Vice President. Tho
motive of many of theso disniiiouists is,
that if they cannot enjoy dignities iu the
wholo of tho Union, they will 111 part of it,
and hence it is that the defeat of tho Sena
tor at tho lato election for President ond
Vice President enabled him to fix the pre
cise point ot timo at which tlio Uoverument
of tho Union should be broken np. Since
tho zum 01 December last, six States have
been taken out of tho Union, not br the
pcojile of thoso States, but by a system of
tyranny, nnd terror, nnd fraud never ex
celled in the world. Tho Government of
the Union has been destroyed, and that of
an Irresponsible tyranny set. up without
consulting the popular will, and without
their votes. It had commenced in South
Carolina, nnd with little or no variation re
peated In Georgia, Mississippi and tlio
other Gulf States. Ho predicted that tho
day would como when the people of those
Stntns would ivsnnin l.linir ricrhtfnl nna-or
Nnd drive tho tyrants from their self-elect
ed posts, nnd perhaps hnng them on trees.
I As iUr. Johnson sat down, the specta
tors in the donsely crowded galleries roso
in order to leave, when, after the lapse of
tew seconds, a faint cheer, followed by
the clapping of a single pair of hands, was
raised in the southeast corner of the ladies'
ffinlleries. This was hesitatingly imitated
by two or three persons further on in tho
south range of the same gallery, but, in
stantaneously gathering strength, it lighted
np the enthusiasm of tho packed galleries
in the west and northwest quarters, and a
tremendous outbnrst of applause putting
to silence the powerful blows from the
hammer of the presiding officer succeeded.
Three cheers were given for tho Union,
and three for Mr. Johnson, and as by this
time the Senators on the floor care the
strongest token of indignation and outrag
ed dignity, the retreating crowd uttered a
shower of hisses. Altogether the exhibi
tion was the most vociferous and onrepress
cd that has ever taken place in the galle
ries ot either J louse or Congress.
