WHEELING VA:-
MONDAY MORNING OCTOBER
Wslike to read the Washington Union Cof:
fciaI papeT) these days, for 1t is very readable
pAper-think. Of its tenets as we may. There
is a great deal Of intellectual vigor in some of
it's leaders. Sometime ago We madam ideathat
the. Union Was rather in the s.sere and yellow
leaf" but it seems to have resnrrected, and we
: Arefre to admit that there is every now and
then nervous reach Of the pen through its
columns, that elicits our interest in an uncom.
mon degree. It is conjectured that the members
of the Cabinet especially Judge Black, ventilate
their intellectual resources through the Union.
Whether this Is so or NOT, makes no difference
as far as its intellectual merits are concerned.
This much by way Of tribute to an opponent.
Alate number of the Union has bold article
on the unity of the democratic organization,
from which We make couple of extracts
SPeakiugof disafection in the party, it says:
There certainly seems to be more or less dan.
ger that the democratic organization in this
country, like that OF the Republicans and .Ameri-
cans, will become mere piece of mosaic, ga
bit'of white stone here and a bit of black stone
therea-a species Of hydra Of many heads, COM
posed Of 'many men of many mindssn There
IS an effort on foot to give the Democracy dis
tincive Northern and Southern aspect-to adj
init, IN truth, in the party what it's members
pronounce unconstitutional in the government,
political free sentiment and a political slave
sentiment
Speaking of the recipe for the. aforesaid dis
affection, the Union further says: E. Z i
" - We want to be able to fix upon a.
principle to guide US in all the future elections
We want to be able to say 9uthoritativeIy, by
the direct decision of the federal courts, that
the question of slavery in the Territories has
been finally determined. If the opposition de-
sire to take issue with us upon the question Of
the 0UerthTOtO of the Supreme Court, we are
ready to accept it, and appeal to the country
We want no more Skulking and pettifogging in
our own party. We want bold, compact, uni
Nersll democracy. We stand by the decision Of
the Supreme Court, and WE PRONOUNCE
THESGURSE OF HERESY upon every man
who invests his interests in the cause of north
ern OF, southern opposition to that decision
We have had enough of time serving of Weld
ing to traitors, because they can vote-of sell
ing principles as OpiateSstO stop the clamor of
one set of demagogues that another may be
elevated to power and position. The best.
TeciPe to reduce and degrade party is to grant
indulgences to trimmcrs, and to authorize he
retIcs to minister at the affairs of the faithful.
Inc unity OF . p0nucal organization IS as ne,
cessaTy as the unity Of the States. Nor is il
possible to maintain the latter without the
former.
e tsWe pronounce the curse of heresy." That
will do. 1t puts us in mind of Booth, in tho
character Of Cardinal Rieheleu. 5 -
