RE A writer in Blackwood's Magazine says:


"The parties rulingin the United States are
at this moment making sacrifices Of the vast
est magnitude to each other--sacri6ees of
great principles as well as Of great interests.
And why Because if they did not do SO,
the republic could not hold TO gether perhaps
for twelve month; and once severed, they
know full well what would be the magnitude
Of their disaster. Mutual sucri6ces and con-
cessions are, in truth, the ties that bind them
together Let their common glory, and theit
common destiny, let the knowledge of what
they have achieved united, and what they
would become if severed, once fail to produce
patriotism or a national virtue, powerful
enough to cause them to yield sectional inter-
ests for the common good, and to forego great
party principles and objects for the preserva-
ton of their institutions and the integrity
of their Government and glory would soon
take leave of their Israel"
See how well the real ground of our
strength is known abroad, and how those who
are most jealous Of US regard the importance
of our union and stability! The London Times,
too commenting upon the same subject, says
The United States alone have retained the
sacred deposite of their national peace inylo-
late, under the sanction of common respect
for supreme authority This is their chief
strength and their chief gloryl From the ag-
gression or hostility of European Powers they
have nothing to fear, but if ever the evil time
should come when local interests or passions
prevail over public law, and disruption of
the Union should ensue, it is not too much
to predict that the whole face of the
North American continent would be changed,
the habits and necessities of war would pre-
dominate over those of peace. the institutions
which now suit the people would become i'm
possible or insufficient, and the New World
would in time exhibit but melancholy paro-
dy of the folies and errors which have SO long
afflicted the older habitations of mankind"
