"E have reached an important crisis in our po-
~ iItical history The two leading parties in our
country hitherto separated by broad lines either Of
principle or Of policy, differ now scarcely in any thing
A National Bank, formerly an essential point Of diff
ference between rival parties has aose no advocates
A Protsctice Tariff for the sake Of protection which
once divided parties and distracted National Coun-
oils has become obsolete, question Of party policy
protection to American Manufactures modifica-
ton Of the details of present tariff system is all
that Is demanded by the most strenuous advocates of
protection TO American Industry.
The distribution Of the proceeds of the public lands
among the several States formerly claimed by one
party and the application Of those proceeds solely in
aid oi the natona! Treasury, as claimed by the other
party have both yielded to compromise OF these con-
ilcng opinions, so far at least TO sink these ques
tons as issues between Wings and Democrats. plan
formed Of compound Of "squatter sovereignty" Of
which they lie, seems likely to withdraw the public
lands from the arena of future party contests.
The improvement Of HORRORS and rives by congress
sonal aid on which political parties have hitherto
differed at different times has now become less ques-
ton Of principle than Of local and sectional contest;
and II will doubtless be adjusted by the next Con-
gress upon that basis of lberality and justice de-
manded by the spirit Of the age and the true interests
Other questions of minor importance, on which, at
aerent Tunes tne two prominent parties Of the coun-
try disagreed have now by change circumstances,
pscohc opsolete. what tnen remain as issues OF
any theoretical or practical importance between Wings
and Dcrnocratss We know of none; and If these
hitherto rival parties shall maintain their respective
organizations they will do for the sake Of the
sp9as ~. q pos.eer! ,M a..
