The PREsIDzMr and his suite were escorted to-
the depot and accompanied ;theacs by the commit
tees, military and other gentlemen of Frederieks-
burg, and delegations of the co5nUittees from Rich

where an interchange of kindly farewell greetings
concluded the ceremonies of the excursion.
Thus has closed what may well be regarded as
proofs Of determined and incoraptible allegiance to
our NationaE Union on the part of the people of
Virginia. Amongst these preOfs, and not the least
significant OF them, may be reckoned what the
cursory observer would psshaps overlook. as.of no
political significance whatever, the manifestations

by which his journey to Richmond and back has
been made contiaaous trumphal progress.

Oh distinguished aiy chief that has thus collected
the people in bodies through long stretch Of coun-

enthusiasm with which the cheers. have been given,
the earnest tones with which the greetings and good
wishes and farewels have been spoken, have every

thrown out upon this subject by any means ex-
hausted it. We have much behind that we may
or may not have occasion to say, as it may or may
not become necessary to continue discussion, the

For TO-DAY, we release our readers from con-

to enable us to lay before them the article IN the

T7fE "UNIoN" NEWSPAPER.

We Offer our compassion-'tis all we have TO
spare-to The Editors of the Union upon the pre-
dcament in which they are placed concerning the
vexed topic of the day. Unlike Hamlet, ia the
play, when the winds seu,herly'' they do not
know hawk from handsaw.'' The Union
seems, in fact, at times almost to mistake IT'S own
identity, as well il might did it judge by the sound
of its own voice. different is it on one day from
what il was the day preceding, or will be the next
day. As to the matter of the discoursss Of !" the
Union upon what il admits to be the dstracting
topic of the day, the only thing in which we dis.
cover consistency or constancy is its unvarying
abuse of the National Intelligencer, often grounds
in direct opposition to each other. An example of
this we have in the yesterdays number of that pa
per, which we will show up, as furnishing the oc-
casion of our conpassionating the uncomfortable
position in which that press frequently finds itself,
nowadays, on the horns Of the dilemma to which
we allude.
In leading article in " the Union of Sunday
last its readers were informed that the National
Infeligencer continues to accumulate its extracts
from the Southern press, land, with exception,
all Whigs.) They are only calculated to deceive
the public, By eoncealing The danger rhich hangs
orer our country" Very well. Orr answer to
that accusation is very simple. We conceal from
the Public no danger that we know of or have rea-
son to believe in. The Unions answer to it is
contained in its number of yesterday, in which
we are charged with eraggerating that which only
three days before it had charged with conceang.
Witness the following paragraph from yesterday s
!" Union :"
Hence the quotations made by the National
hateAigencer from Southern papers, in order TO
make the people Of the North believe that South
ern men desire dissolution Of The Union," &c.
" For despicable party ends, and with hypocritcal
professions of love for the Union on their lips,
: they are suiling-yea, they are Striving ana
iousiy-fo sever all the kindly bonds and destroy
all the fraternal sympathies which unite the
: States to each other, so that they may driUe the
!. nation to the uerge Of civH aoar,'' &c. "We
solemnly charge these things upon the Admins
tration, and upon the corrupt press which panders
to ats traitorous designs against the peace the
: Contederacy,' &c.
The two articles which we have quoted, every
reader will see, directly reue each other, the so-
lemnity' of the charges only heghtening their re-
spective absurdity. If any thing more false and
malignant than both Of them was ever written or
printed, it has escaped our observation.
