0The great effort of partsans, on both sides
nowadays, appears to be to preserve the nation
atty of parties. In New York the trouble in
the wing party arose from the apprehensions of
some that the party was about cutting loose from
connection with its southern brethren; in Mil
waukee some effort was attempted for the same
reason, and similar manifestations in the same
party are going on all over the country. And
the same in the other party. Even here, some
six hunkers have found it necessary to formally
dissolve all connection with Wisconsin Democ-
racy and put their shoulders to the wheel to pre-
vent the dissolution Of the great National Demo-
cratic party.
Under these circumstances it becomes us to
inquire what these National parties have done
and are doing, that makes it so Mt cessary they
should be sustained. To be brief, the great end
and aim of the existence of both of these parties
appears to be to see which can dive deepest and
come up filthiest in the cause of slavery They
gave Texas SSl0,000.OOO, and 10000 square
miles of New Mexico, for no other reason under
heaven than because she coveted it. They pass
ed the fugitive slave BILL and they refused to in
sert the Wilmot proviso in the territorial govern
ments of New Mexico and Utah. They refused
to give us cheap postage--they refused to give
us freedom of the public lands-in short they
refused every thing to the cause of freedom and
correct principles, that by any possibility they
could. This is strictly true; and these are the
national parties which must be preserved, and
which we are called upon to fall down and wor-
ship And will they do any better for the fu-
ture7 They do not even promise to do better
The South has thus far dispensed, in the first
place, the President, to the nation, and then all
the Executive patronage, and as a consequence
she controls the National parties; and it is this
alliance, these National Wings and these Ma
tional Hunkers seek. Where is the intelligent
disinterested northern man who feels bound 10
such an alliance. There are some offices in the
gift of the Executive in every village, and hence
there are in every village some few men who
are ready to sustain this National organization.
which is always ready AID willing to give to the
South all she asks. But what do the masses of
the people care for these things. What object
is it to them to sustain an organization which is
only seeking their lfes' blood When you are
called upon to sustain this National organization,
and elect to office the men nominated by it, rec.
ollect these facts.

Oh CONSISTENCY THE course of Gov. Do
ty in running independent against Mr.. Hobart,
in the north district, is implicitly commended in
both the Milwaukee democratic papers, whilst
Mr. Durkee, for his independent position, is the
subject of the unsparing abuse of the same
sheets. Pinks OF consistency are these editors.
Gov. Doty and Mr.. Durkee pursued both pre-
cisely the same course in Congress; they have
both precisely the same claim on their constitu-
ency to be returned, and they both occupy an in
dependant position before that constituency ask.

mended for his course Mr.. Durkee is abused
for the same course. We see it stated on pref
ty good authority, that these Milwaukee editors,
have been spiked that is bribed and bought up
with reference to Gov. Doty. Their conduct
gives good ground for suspicion, for if they were
honest in sustaining Doty, of course they could
not fail to sustain Durkee. This is worthy the
attention of the people of this district, only as
showing the corrupt character of the opposition
with which they are contending. Shall we per-

1--WE will not do that party which has been
known as the old bunker democracy, the injus-
tlce to accuse them as party of being the author
OF this late abortive attempt to get up third
ticket in this county. That few of their num-
bers were active in it, we are well aware, but we
have no idea that the mass of the party have any
sympathy with the move. Had that party under
taken it, we think it would have done something
at least respectable, but the insgnifcance of this
move will find its. parallel only in the insignif-
canoe of its results. Think of county conven.
ton of some eight or ten men, assembling osten.
sibly because the regular convention was compo-
sed of abotionsts and wings, and then make
up a ticket taking two men off the ticket nomi-
ted by this, as they call it, wing abolition conven-
ton, three more who were candidates for nomi.

ct. Comment would seem to be needless. The
move will probably have one good effect, mas
much as those engaged in it would otherwise
have supported the wing ticket, and thus jeopar
ded the democratic ticket

The two Milwaukee, democratic papers are
in great trbuation lest the wings of this district
should be sold out 10 Mr.. Durkee We sus-
pect the anxiety arises altogether from the fact
that the wings will not allow themselves to be
sold out to Mr.. Gilmore. Wonder if these pa
pers think the wings of this district are not pos
sessed of common sense. They probably know
what they are about, and are much less likely to
be sold out to any one than are these editors.

THE PEACE MEETING OF MONDAY EVENING
REV. J. Gridey in accorda nee with previous
announcement, delivered the second of the series
of lectures proposed to be delivered to our citi-
zens this Winter, ON the peacesubject We were
gratifed to see a respectable audience in point OF
numbers present, though we would say to the
friends of the cause, there is yet room for more.
The ground of the speakers remarks were, the
inconsistency of war and the war spirit, with the
teachings of the New Testament, and is super
fluous for us to say, that the subject was ably
handled and the points conclusively established.
We thought the speaker might have gone far
ther in the advocacy ofthe non-resistance princi-
Piles than he did, in view of the premises he laid
down and established, but perhaps he went as far
as practicable in view of the present position Of
the cause. At the close Of the address,a desuto
ry discussion, somewhat interesting in its char
acter sprung between several gentlemen of the
audience.
| Mr. j. B. JILsoN, is the next speaker in order
for week from next Monday evening. Due no
of the time and place will be given.
We say again to the friends of the cause, d.
| what you can to secure audiences on these oc-
casions, for they may be made of much ser
| vice.

A MAGNIFICENT STEAMSHIP The New
York papers are expressing natural enthusi-
asm over the trial trip of the new steamship
Arctic, the third of the Collins line. The Eve.
Post remarks:
"The Arctic Is essentially the counterpart Of
her two consorts, the Pacific and the Atlantic
She is abou, three hundred tons larger than the
Atlantic, and her engines have proportionably
superior power. Like the Atlantic, her cabins
are superbly decorated and furnished and her
state rooms are large, and furnished with every
luxury She is admirably warmed by Fields
heating apparatus. The steam pipe penetrates
every corner Of the ship, and the heat can be
graduated with the greatest nicely. So far as
nautical science is now understood, nothing
could add to the perfection of the Arctic. The
almost incredible sum of six hundred and fifty
thousand dollars has been expeDdedin her con-
struction. She has, as consequence, more
power more strength, and more beauty, than any
other steamer now af1oat'
