The Southern Rights Party seems, at this epoch
to be the only party in the country that has pre-
served intact and sound the integrity of its organ
zation. 1t is knit together by the strong bonds o
enduring principles having their foundations deer
in the native soil. The rights of home, kindred
and country are its objects, and watchword. Iti:
for the South frst and for the union only, as sub
ordinate to the interests of the South What car
stay the growth of such party? Who can smoth
er the patriotic feeling that swells up from every
manly heart and burns in every woman's bosom
for the soil that gave them birth and is endearec
to them by the title of ''native land AS wei
plant seed in the fertile earth, water it with warm
showers and pour on it the rays of genial sunshine
and command it, not to grow. Fecundity of NOR
al sentiment as we'll as vegetable termination is
law of the earth. The Home party must grow
and he who attempts to overturn the domestic al
tars and erect Pantheon of strange gods from
far off countries, will fail, time retlec-
ton and nature have had opportunity to do their
certain work the human heart.
We say it is the only party intact. Where is
the old National Democratic Party? Torn and
discovered by the bomb shell which it allowed abb
olitionism to explode in its midst. By courage and
fidelity to its principles, 1t could have met and
crushed the danger-but it compromised and quail
ed--it listened to the tempter, and tell. Where
is the Wing party? Literally swallowed up by
abotionism, its distinctive lines etfaced, and Sc
ward its chief in all the free States So complete
is the amalgam, that its Southern wing has been
forced to disband as a Wing organization; repudi-
ate its old name and become submissionists under
the euphony of constitutional Union. And where
is the submission party? what its hopes, its pros
poets and its principles? Like wanton woman,
its creed of submission is patent invitation to Alb
clifton lust and cupidity-cOmc and take me. Its
cry is the union first; Southern Rights, if consis-
tent with union Its roots instead of striking deep
into the sympathes of native soil, seek nourish-
ment from the wrappngs of bits of starred and
striped bunting. 1t curls its hair nightly, in scraps
of paper with garbled extracts from Washington s
Farewell address printed on tit feeds its delicate
stomach Bunker Hill ditties and fourth of July
rhapsodieS, and worships the skeleton of a union
now emasculated of its glory, and disengaged from
the spirit of life liberty and equality which once
lighted up its ribs of death. 1t dwells on the poet
~ and romance of the past, and turns Its alright
ed eyes from the realities of the present Its
Mecca is Washington Clty-power and the spolIs
thereof, its loadstone-deceit ard dcuSion its
weapons superstitious state of facts the basis of
its hopes. We ask-uness the people of the South
have neither sense nor feeling-how can such
party get or maintain hold on the popular heart?
Their first step is a tasehood-''the union on the
basis of the compromse-the compromise has fail
ed, and vet they are for the union. The ''peace
measures have settled the veXed question -
False again, for the heart of Fanaticism has never
before so throbbed and bounded with hope. The
party is wrong and at fault everywhery. Forget
ting the maxim that charity begins at home their
idol is beyond the horizon of home and country,
and it is therefore, to the South, foreign party.
They are at fault in taking the Clay compromise,
because had they been true, the South could have
got what Is better than any ompromlse-JU UsTICE.
Originally to blame for the degradation of the South
in the settlement they now dOubly to blame for
averring that, poor bargain as it is, it is final
adjustment when every mail from the North brings
tidings of the gathering of the abolition forces to
make onslaught, demand new concessions,
and another final ad justment. But the Georgia
Platform - exclaims some submissionist, ashamed
of his position IN the past, and intending to COM
pensate for it in the future. What is the Georgia
Platform? 1t amounts to this-you have kicked
me, pulled my nose and spit in my tace-but if
hereafter you slap my cheek, I'll resist, Who be-
lieves in such fighting platform as that? Tie
Politicians who submitted to aehat as past in the
catalogue of wrongs to the South, will 90 on sub
mittng to the end of the chapter. WILL
PEOPLE CONSENT TO FURTHER CONCESSIONS AND SUB
MISSIONS? That Is the question now UPON it will
be formed the parties to meet in contest at the Oc
tober polls-on it, will be divided the SUBMISSION
and the SOUTHERN RIGHTs parties.-C Columbus

A VALUABLE REMEDY.-A writer in a Pitts
burg paper says that the following salve is most
valuable and of positive efficacy, in cases of burns,
sores, DC. After peeling the outside bark of the
elder, scrape off the green bark that is under and
stew it in lard till it crisp, then strain it in jar
and put it away. Another writer, speaking of the
salve, says:
