A NORTHERN MAN WITH THE R1Gur Sort OF UNION
PRINCIPLES. The Grafton Of X. r. Stockton, Esq,
U. s. Senator elect from New Jersey, Elizabeth
town, the 4th of July, which have laid before
readers is sample of the true spirit which, bold
ly expressed and maintained in the North, will quiet
the South and preserve the Union. Few men in his
posltion-a Senator from a nonslavehoding State
Democrat from State nearly equally balanced in
party potics-would have the moral courage to take
the manly, just and patriotic ground which he as
sumes in defence OF the Constitution and of State
Rights. His sentiments and his language COM
handing, 10 allay the Demon of Dscord which threat
ems our peace and prosperity as people that ought
to be united, not only by the bands of compact, but
by the ties of affection and by the trusts of mutual
confidence. Less than a stand like this, however,
could not be looked for from like the new Sem
ator from New Jersey man OF the best revolution
airy stock of the Jersey Blues; born of the purest
patriotism, that which looks d country and
stitution, section party. Bred and trained
up hero, under the eyes and commands of heroes
on the quarter decks of our Decaturs and Hulls;
boy whose gallanty not content with the glories of
the naval achievment in which he shared during the
last war; beyond the return of peace and taught
British officers in the Mediterranean, by his single
devotion and daring, to respect q" Yankees" every
where and at all times; whose chivalry caused an
order of the British Admiralty to its officers not TO
their Brother Jonahans the field of" honor ;;
a man whose love of our navy prompted him to de-
the energies of active mind and the purse Of
large private fortune to its improvement; officer
who Gas informed) has never drawn the first
dollar tor his pay in the service man, who In the
with Mexico, not finding an enemy's ships on
the high seas, and, impatient of Pacific blockade,
drilled sailors and marines into soldiers in the land
service, commanded General and Colonel in the
field, fought the battle and won the victory of San
Gabriel, and reclaimed most important conquest
which had been lost. A man who refused the Secre-
taryship of the Navy Department so long as there
service for him board ship, and who has re-
tired from the silly, onlq in "Pipng times " of gen
eral peace, aid in the of the country by his
voice and his councils and his voes from the right
quarter, at the opPortune moment, in the highest
places of civil service Such men, in issues like the
present, precious to the nation than fine gold
They are beacon lights and guardians, 10 whom
grateful people will look, and whom the wise and
The good will heed and approve.
