The Sliding Scale of the UniOnists..

We have been not little perplexed to locate the
precise principles, of those who have zealously
sought the euphoneous name of ''Union," +" to de-
signate the organization as party.
Before the meeting of the convention at Jackson,
under the auspices of Mr.. Foote, such was their fl
Iial devotion to that distinguished Senator, and for
the Union, that the very idea of resistance to
ana cause, seemed to beget in their minds in
stnctive respect for their old remedy to quell the
refractory spirit of freemen-the ''Sedition Law
Traitors, treason, hemp and the gallows, were pet
phrases, handed about among them with such We
locity and spirit that men of ordinary nerve scarce
ly dared utter complaining grunt, at the pains
and injuries inflicted on the South. We were pre-
pared therefore, for the most cheerful and lauda-
tory concentrations from their convention, upon
Gen. Foote and the Union,-Siamese twins-upon
the compromise bills, and the fraternal spirit of
our Northern brethren.
We did not expect to the ''glorious union
about to be formed between old enemies, laying
down a platform, the very elements of which con-
tanned six causes, upon the happening OF any one
of which, they threatened the destruction of the
.supion, unconstitutional, as well as party-with
the North. But so it was, that while they seemed
nerfectly content with securing to the four slave
States adjoining the ronslaveholding States, a law
for the protection of fugitive slaves-and threaten
ed secession, fight or suicide if their rights were
not respected they calmly "acqwiesce' in an out
raoe to their own friends and neghbors, even more
insulting and degrading than the refusal to pass
fugitive slave law, or to execute 1t when passed.
We mean, the refusal to pass laws IN the Terri
tories to punish interference with the slaves OF South
ern men who 90 there, when they admit and boast
that slavery cannot get there, or find protection
,ritbout such Legislation. Their, affections-con-
rorv to the natural laws of attraction-are strong
ost and most intense, towards objects at distance
Their sliding scale has no respect for the laws of
o;.ber cohesion nor repulsion-but it is rather gra-
duated upon the theory of the electric fluid which
: both positive and negative, and may be made to
.h;ft its active position to either extreme, to suit
.he taste of the operator. Now they explode on the
