The Moral ond Political Effect Of the Union
Meeting.
The moral and political influence of the Union
and Constitution meeting held at Castle Garden,
few days previous to the late election, was no,
confined to New York, but extended to all the
towns and villages in the interior of the State,
is apparent from the returns that have come TO
hand In these places blow has been aimed at
the Seward influence, and at the slavery agi-
tators, which, if followed up, gives promise of no,
only checking, but 1nnihilating, the clique Of
ambitious and unprincpled demagogues who wish
to rise on the ruin and wreck of society, and on
the dsintegration of the republic. The merchants
Of the interior cities and towns are intelligent
men as those of the city Of New York, and equal
TO them in every point OF view; and when the
mercantile community strike blow, il is felt all
over the country. The feeling which existed at
Castle Garden is the same which brought about
the cohNtHuon WHICH rfouuccu the present
Triton after the revolutionary struggle. The mer-
chants of those days were not more intelligent than
those Of the present age.
Ii is not often that we see a movement so inme-
date and prompt in its effects as that of Castle Gar
den. 1t has already given serious blow to the
anti-savery agitation, and TO Seward, Weed, Gree
ley Co., the chefspirs of mischief and disorgani-
zaton i'll the State. Its success thus far, is vie
practicable philanthropy, and the conflict will 90
until the Union and Constitution are thoroughly
indicated, and the agitators kept in check, and
shom of their power to do further harm. II will
be the fault of the friends of the Union themselves,
if thus be not the case. They have shown the pow
er which they possess, and what they can accom-
plish by welding in favor Of the cause of mora-
~ and sound principles.
But il is not in the State of New York alone that
the sentiments of the Castle Garden meeting have
been responded to- They have been re- echoed in
New England, and especially New Jersey. In the
latt named State, they have accomplished CON-
pleie revolution of parties. The New Jersey wing
abohtionists have been utterly demolished, and a
rebuke given 10 fanaticism which, probably, it will
never recover from. James G.. King, and others
who, like him, advocated ultraiem and agitation,
and who were always on the side Of both, in Con-
gress and out OF it, have been annihilated. Ii may
be claimed that the result of the recent election in
that State, was merely victory Of the democrats
over the wings This, however, is a mistake.
Partyism, in the abstract, may have had little to
do with il, but not much The spirit Of union and
nationality invoked at the Castle Garden meeting,
and the sentiments expressed on that occ aston, do
not 60 the whole length of the democratic notions,
by any means. The Union and Constitution people
merely selected their ticket the lesser of two evils
for the purpose of checking agitation, in the same
manners as the people of the city OF New York voted
for the whig candidates, with the view Of putting
down the rowdy lem of Tammany HAL, and defeating
the stool pigeon nominations which emanated from
that building. In each case there was an importent
principle involved II was the interest OF the peo-
pie Of New Jersey 10 pursue such course; for
every body knows that that State carries on large
commercial business with the Southern States
which would be utterly ruined and Frustrated in
case Of further continuance of the slavery agta-
tion. They know well-lor they had some proof it
that the South will not deal with people that en-
courage an invasion of their political and constiu
tional rights, and theft of their property.
But the friends Of the Union and Constitution
ought not 10 rect satisfied with what they have
already accomplished, great as it is. They ought
TO make their voices heard and their influence felt
IN the neat Legislature of this State, which is to
elect a member Of the United States Senate to re-
present this State, in the place Of the Hon. Daniel
;. Dickinson. II Justice were done, without
reference 10 party feelings or party pref 1dices,
Daniel $. Dickinson would be reelected, as
a testimonial of the admiration in which his
exertions in favor Of the peaccab'e settlement Of
the slavery question, during the last session Of Con-
gress, are held, and as rebuke TO the demagogue
Seward, who exeIted himself to the uimos, 10 de-
feat all attempts al compromise. We shall call
on the members Of the next Legislature, not as
wings democrats, but as friends Of the Union
and the Constitution, TO select him in preference 20
any man who has the black mark of Sew ard de-
mag oguism on his forehead, or the destructive
and disor lsnzing principles OF slavery agitation in
his hesIt-no matter what his party feelings or |
may be. The merchants, mocha nics
and professional men, who met in Castle Garden, |
irrespective Of party, aud pledged to nothing but
the m n:enance OF the constitution, and the con-
tinusnce Of this republic. should inss, upon |
the reelection Of Mr. Dickinson, or some similar

of like character in every commercial town in

lincs hopes, and plans. and ASPIRATIONS of all the
siatofs and fanatics in the state, from Sandy |
