THE WAR WHOoP AGAIN.

We had hoped for peace, and fondly believed
cessation Of political hostilites was sincerely
desired by all parties-and especially by the one
of which the National Intelligencer is the
avowed organ But we fear that we were mis-
taken. We fear not for ourselves or for those
whose measures we advocate, but for the
country. If there is to be no peace-it the sp-
rit Of Cancellation, that is evinced in good faith
by the Executive, is to be disregarded by ambl-
tious partisan eaders-if all the offers Of union
and compromise made by the President Offered
in behalf Of suffering people--are to be spurned
by the Representatives Of the people, or rather
those who claim to representatives, wishes then
the consequences must be upon their own
heads If they are determined to work out
speedy ruin for themselves, they can be graft
fed. They have only to persist in the course of
DISCRIMINATION so recently and so sgnaly re-
buked by the people-and TO thwart their wishes
so generally expressed in relation to the Mes
sage-to effect it, The people are slow to an
ger but when reused woe be to the one on whom
their Indignation falls There now exists
enough discordant material to set the nation by
the ears il party leaders desire it, until the day
Of the next Residential election The material
is not among the people it belongs solely to
few political adventures. These have their
presses at command and they have only TO set
them in operation to raise the tempest. When
the storm comes, let those who praised it look to
themselves Truth and honesty must prevail.
The workers Of evil only will be scathed The
President has thrown aside all party views,
and labored TO the utmost of his ability

This the People knop to be the case. Hehas per
formed his duty, and the country now requires
the prompt action of the other branch OF the
Government If the designing partisans Of this
branch aim blow at the President, they will
first strike the People themselves, before they
can reach the object of their enmty and the
People will resent it fearlully
