T5eThe New York Mirror, remarking
on the general observance ofthe late thanks
giving day, says
This Thanksgiving has suggested one re-
Election worthy of more than passing con-
sideration, to wit, that there are other than
political bonds holding our great nation to-
gether. Yesterday twenty-eight of the
thirty-onc States of the Union joined in
thanks to God; among other things, for the
growth, prosperity, and unity of this Re-
public. Aye, we can even now hear the
echo offervent thanks for the preservation
four glorious Union, ringing over the pull
pits and hearths of the North, the South,
the East and the West. Twenty-cight
States have bent the knee and bowed the
head on the same day, and perhaps at the
same hour, and thanked God and besought
him for the same blessings. Can ropes Of
grass and bands of iron bind nation togeth-
Ell like such spirit as this? Can the Multi
tude who pray and worship SO dcvoutly to
day at the same altar, for common good
arise TO morrow and smitc one other and be
divided. No! by this sublime scene just
past, we may believe that patriotism and re.
/ ligion are united the affairs OF Liberty, anC
will defend their temble, the Union, for.
ever.

The lot Of 200 bales of dew rotted hemp.

ton, cash, for prime quality. This is a de-
cline from previous prices, but ii was forced
off for cash at q time when manufacturers
were well supplied with both American and
Russian and is hardly fair criterion. This
lot of hemp has been stored here for some
time, and we understand 1920, less A per
cent cash, was offered for it some time ago,
and refused. We do not look for any activ-
| ity in American for some weeks. An i'm
port of 80 tons Russia has been received
which was sold previous to arrival at 1922
10 ton, 6 months, and this leaves our market
again bare of this description. Russia hcmr

UNION OF THE Who PARTY.-We are grati6ed
10 see in the Boston Atlas expressions looking to
the union and harmony Of the Whig party. In this
portion Of the State there has been Division and
we have looked upon divisions elsewhere as arising
out of personal feeling personal Misunderstanding,
and personal imprudence. We have never believ-
ed, for moment, that the party, as party, was
divided. We have had no evidence that any por-
ton of the party had forsaken its principles. We
have seen the Wings in our Legislature standing
shoulder to shoulder, with unanimity and harmo-
ny rarely equalled, during all the past winter. We
have seen all the Wings, and all the Wing presses
in the State, regarding with one eye and one inter.
est the Senatorial struggles and in regard to the re-
suit of this struggle, and every consideration con-
nected with it. there have been but one feeling and
one desire.
The Fugitive Slave Law is the only subject which
can interfere with the harmony of the Wing party
Of Massachusetts, and we look in vain for differ
ence Of opinion in regard to il throughout the whole
Whig press OF the State. We find not one Of them
talking of the exceencies Of the law, or intoxicating
in any way the idea that it is unexceptonable, but
we find all Of them vindicatng its execution, as
law Of the land, and opposing all violent and fac
tious opposition to it. The Atlas speaks the truth
when It says "there is no disposition on the part
of the Wings 10 nullify the law by violence, or an
Uay other scay on the other hand, the Whg party
has ever held as its chief ornament and regarded
as its chief element of success, STEADY ADHER-
ENcE TO Law AND ORDER
Here, then, we all stand, and we can but count
those as foes who would disturb this perfect har-
mony Of sentiment and principle, as it exists.
For this unity the party will have abundant use
in the struggle which is before it, both in the State
and Nation. Massachusetts is now in the hands Of
unprincipled demagogues, and the Whig party must
remain united that she may be redeemed. The
National Administration. as truly Whig as any that
ever executed the Government, is assailed by fac
tionsts Of every name and grade. Disunion howls
at il from the South, notification at the North and
sectional opposition comes from every quarter. It
stands, however, on the ground Of the Constitution,
is devoted to the Union, and executes the laws. If
ever the Wing party, every where, owed an Admin
istration its support the obligation never greater
than now. Its position is in the very ciidel Of
strength, and around it the Wings Of the whole
country can rally to man and without aquestion.

Some stress is laid by the advocates Of the right
Of secession upon the phraseology used in the rati
6caton act of the Virginia Convention and also in
that of the New York Convention. In the former
it is declared that /" the powers granted under the
Constitution, being derived from the people Of the
United States, may be resumed by them whenso-
ever the shall be perverted to their injury and
oppression; and in the prefix to the act of rati6-
cation by the New York Convention il was affirm
ed " that the powers of Government may be reas-
sumed by the people whensoever it shall become
necessary to their happiness"
We here find the extreme right Of revolution
asserted as belonging to the people of the United
States, whensoever the powers of Government
should be used SO oppressively as to be no longer
endured But there is nothing said of any reserued
right on the part Of q State, as member of the
Union, to Withdraw from the Union upon any fu-
ture contingency. The right of revolution to those
who are willing to run the risks of its exercise
may be affirmed as an abstract thing for any peo-
pie but the declaration of it does not and cannot
incorporate it in any organized system of govern
ment; for no organized system Of government
can be expected to contain prospective provision
for its own dissolution. To say that the right of
revolution belongs to people, is simply to say that
when those who desire revolution in country
are strong enough to accomplish it. and are willing
to undertake il at the risk of life and DEATH then
the right may be exerted, and be made to become
a fact instead of an abstraction.
But it is from the purpose to reason concerning
an extreme case, which in the nature of things
must be exceptional, and at variance with all sys-
TENS Of government, 10 reason concerning such
case though it belonged to the ordinary analoges
and relations of goyernment.-BaA. american.
