UNION AMONG THE wings.
Prospects Ahead.


the Presidency. will soon present an unbro
ken front on the question. As the period
draws near when the selection IS 10 Be made
by the National Convention, an honorable
spirit Of concession and harmony seems tu
be every where perVading our ranks. Those
/ who were for CLAY, for WERsTER, for Han.
RIsoN, for ScOTT, or some other candid tie
whose name has not yet been mentioned
all have exhibited a desire 10 harmonise.
and yield al miner considerations for he
good Of the cause. This is the true spirit
| Of patriotism, and argues well for our sue
cess in the great struggle.
Our opinions have more than once been
made known through the columns Of this
paper, on the absolute necessity Of perfect
union among all who are opposed to the
present Administration. Its not that We.
prefer one man above another; both being
equal in honesty, ia qualifications and love
of country; but our desire Island has been
that the man should be selected, who can.
best carry out the REFORMS needed ia the.
present corrupt condition of the Admins
tration. We would take up the. MN who
has power and influence Of his own, and
by whom the confidence of the people,
abused as it has been by the last and pre-
sent Admin stration. will not again be be-
trayed. Whoeverlak the helm in IS4l,
will find more embarrassed state OF public
affairs than has existed since the The revo-
luton. Our great nation full of yigor, rich
in lis resources, willonly have reached the
climax of government experimenting, and
1flled the measnren Of humbug glory. Our
financial difficulties, instead Of being re-
ieved, viii have increased, from the natural /
md inevitable consequences of thu unwise /
adopted and ia train by the Cow
In addition TO the emblrrass-
nents which the new Administration must
encounter from an exhausted treasury, llun-l
Tered revenues, and disordered currencyi
great and absorbing questions Of public POI
icy are to come up, which, unless met with
he prudence and foresight of the profoun-
lest statesmen and patriots, may conyulse
he Union to its centre.
Il IS important, in our humble apprehen-
ion, that the people Of this country should
ook at the PROSPECTS AHEAD. There mayI'
e subjects which the silent course Of courts.
nd the sure tendency of the nnexampfed
Ranges in the social condition and popala- III
on OF the country, may render of the grea- IT
sst consequence infinitely greater i'm {
ortance than any question al present in the
lonths of pOliticians. The next census is
