Loyalty and Treason.

An article from the New York News, exposing
the cautious and crafty method by which the Tri
bune adopts and presents the Republican issue for
1860, as indicated by Mr.. Seward, in his late Ro-
chester speech, concludes follows: "The
idea that the North and South have always been
at swords point and can not remain united under
the present Constitution is new one. 1t is a
base attempt to lay the foundation of plot whose
consummation was indicated in the late speech of
VIM. III. Seward. 1t is to be the starting point of
a crusade against the common rights of the States
to free and unrammeled exercise of their legit-
innate powers for the purpose of electing to the
Presidency man whose principles are 10 the last

1t leaves dark spots on the youthful mind
that will require much useful reading and
experience in actual life to eradicate. Such
literature is not only found ia the "yellew
covered books, but Is a leading feature
in many of the most popular Eastern
Weeklies, and is sought after with an ca
gerness which, it directed in the pursuit
of useful knowledge, would lead to glori-
Gus results.
There are degrees between what is term
ed the useful, which includes scientific and
historical reading, and the "cheap litera-
ture," which abounds in tales of crime.
horror and impossibili;ies. Although we
do not wish to recommend anything that
could not properly be classed under the
head OF useful, yet the public taste has
been pampered SO much, and has become
so perverse, that it impossible to bring it,,
at one step, to the standard it should oc-
cupy. 1t is imperstiyely necessary, if
we have in view the establishment and
perpetuation Of sound morals and elevated
literary tastes, to effect chanse in this
matter that will be at least one step to-
wards the attainment of the desired result.
The change which has heretofore taken
place from the good to the bad" was
many years in course Of contamination;
and philosophy teaches that it will be an
equal, if not greater. length of time be-
fore a thorough change for the better can
be effected 1t is not reasonable to sup
pose that those who have heretofore Toasted
on tales of horror, and unheard-of villain
les, should suddenly turn their attention to
reading Of a substantial character and ele-
waited tone of morals; but if this reforma-
ton takes place in the minds of those who
have been led asiray, it must be done step
by step, until they arrive at that standard
Of moral excellence that will appreciate the
beauties and benefits of purely moral and

degree monarchial and despotic How crafty are
these conspirators in the propagation Of their dark
designs. How essential to the accomplishment of
their ends, to establish the fact that the North and
the South have distinct and hostile interests, and
that this feud was born in the very midst of our
struggle for independence. Do not all these
symptoms clearly show to what an issue the Re
publican party are driving us7 The whole argu
ment of the Tribune amounts simply to this:
History has proved that the two sections of the
country have been opposed to each other; that
their political and social economy IL totally dis
tinct that this difference is fatal to union. and
that therefore the Republic should be dissolved
and become separate and independent nations.
Here i. the key to the objects of Northern fanat-
icism, and it opens the doorto the issue which our
enemies intend to make in the campaign Of 1860.
Well might the loyal men of the nation shudder at
declaration so monSrous as this did they nOtreal-
ize Inc impotence of the few zealots who made it.
Such Justification Of history and experience is
unparalleled. Such perversion of the patriotic
sentiments of the founders Of the Republic is only
worthy the source from which it emanates. We
repeat it, we accept the issue. Let the struggle
come. If treason is to be the rule, and loyalty
the exception, let us know it at once. Deusion is
no longer possible. If this great temple Of Gber
ty is already tottering the brink of destruction,
only ask one more opportunity to strike blow
in its behalf, to raise our voice in prayer for It's
succor, and, if it must fall, to perish fighting on
its ruins or live in the consciousness that we have
been true to its interests and glory"
