Nothing can be than the spite which the
sefsyled republicans manifest toward those able and
patriotic who having heretofore ranked high wings
feel bound only by every sentiment of duty and every
feeling of nationality but by every dictate Of real consist
ency, to cooperate with the democratic party. The
questions of highest moment upon which these disputes
with the democracy made to hinge having been

ton act with in giving ascendency at this crisis to

prospect of for those principles upon which the
Union was founded and by which alone be perpetv
uated
Those wings who have given dignity and power to their
party by genius patriotism public integrity and personal
character always boosted of their loyalty to the Union
and the securities which the constitution throws around
the rights of the States That loyalty found expression in
many grave senatorial debate in many a popular ha-
rangue in many inspired ODE still detained by school
boys and sung clubs Where then they during the

Of tact and utter disregard of the ties which should

of "tbe good old times" have with such crew.
II Is quite manifest that those odners respecta-
bic by weight of character purity of purpose and dsiner-
ssted patriotism, will be found fighting side by side and
shoulder to shoulder with the democracy in the coming
contest
