THE Observation-Disclosures OF PARTIES.

Ever since Neto mo. L OF fTesiueht yer,
we have said that both parties were doomed TO
disruption, unless some of the dishonest, and, at
the same time, most powerful leaders, were
thrown overheard or hung up at the yardarm.
This inevitable result is becoming more appa-
rent every day. The Wing party first crum-
bled to pieces and then began 10 cast Out It's
devils Adams, Bots and Arnold were not
thrown over until the ship ran aground but
we design TO speak more particularly OF 'he'
Republican party, on which CT being more non
est than the other) the country must now centre
its hopes.
Democratic Republican measures alone can
save our Government from destruction. Had
the chain of Federal Wing measures been
firmly fixed upon the country, anarchy would
have prevailed in America before the year 1916.
But Providence or fate, has always thwarted
Mr.. Clay. and although he has occasionally sue
ceeded in fixing one or two portions OF his
American system Ca system to put the nation IN
chains y on the country, they have been lnvari-
ably thrust off again by some patriotic hand,
and now the last link of that chain is broken.
Although the Democratic Republican party
is poweress at present. at least in Congress, we
have Republican President, who hFS already
thrown himself into the breach some half dozen
times, and, single handed, warded OIL and repel-
led the assaults Of the Federalists against the
Constitution and the Government-he has stay
ed the uplihed hand of the enemy OF his coun-
try, until her friends can have time to rally In
her defence and come to the rescue. And is
this time for the Democratic party to spit In
fragments 10 crafty the spleen and arrogance of
one or two ambitious leaders We hops not
but such will inevitably be the case II these
leaders are not promptly and efectually re-
buked.
Let the Democratic Republicans unite In
ONE PARTY and once more restore the ''true
principles of our Government" before they de-
termine who shall be elected three years hence.
Let us gain the victory before we crown the
victor The battle is again TO be fought Shall
we declare triumph in advance for one who
NAV neither have the courage nor the ability TO
obtain the victory? Let the work be done, be-
fore the laborer receives his hire. Let not the
prize be awarded before it is won, and let It then
right to it before the battle is fought, and if it is
declared in Alliance who shall have it disafiec-
ton, defeat and disruption are inevitable.
We grieve to say that there are some proml-
nent members of the Democratic party whose
evil designs must be rebuked at the threshold of
the coming struggle for the ascendancy of Re-
publican principles. These men, notwthstand-
ing all the Chief Magistrate has done for the
perpetuity of Republican Principles-notwith-
standing the evil he has prevented the Federal
lists from perpetralng-are secretly striving to
preuem the Democratic party from cooperating
with the Administration They are acuated
by selfish motives, fear and Jealousy! They
must either rule or ruin We tell them, that
if they even succeed in dashing to the earth the
great Democratic edifce, regenerated Repub-
lican party will rise from the very stones and
rally around the Administration We believe
that Divine Providence is fighting on the side
of the Constitution
But we would appeal to the frank and file"
of the great Democratic Republican party
We would ask them, individually and collect
lively, if they are prepared to sacrifice their
dearest measures for any Of their men We
know they are mott Then we assure them that
one or two of their men are striving TO sow dis
cord among their ranks. They are doing all in
their power to prevent the party from co-operat-
ing with the President in his exerions to over
come the Clay Wing hydra! We have not
space to-day to demonstrate this fact by a full
array OF particulars. Let it suffice that these
men are stirling, secretly, to procure as many
removals. Of Democrats from office, and TO de-
feat as many Democratic applicants as pos
sible They fear to trust their own party !
They impute dishonesty to their own support
ers We know of instances wherein the mis-
representations of LEADERS have procured the
removal of Democrats from oflice-and others
wherein Democratic applicants for restoration
to the places from which they had been unjust
ly removed, have been defeated by the inge
NOUS tales of their supposed friends, these De
mocrats. And this was done to procure dbus,
of the Administration on the one hand and Il
prevent praise on the other =! Hundreds ant
thousands of applications by honest an,
capable Democrats-men in every way eli
gible, and deserving of the places which they
sought-have been entrusted 10 these leaders
and defeated through their instrumentalhy
and so managed as TO create the belief that thu
President was adverse to their appointment
while the very reverse is the truth Many who
have written to these leaders have had lhe
letters torn to pieces, and fabricated tales writer
back in answer
Is such conduct patriotic Is this a jus
proceedings Is it the way to secure the goot
OF the greatest number? BY such means cal
the Administration triumph over Federal Wing
