charan has entitled himself to the hearty
thanks and the best wishes of every Amer
lean patriot. Let "the opposition" contin-
ne to abuse and malign him; the people will
stand by him. That he has pleased eve
ry one Of his own party in every respect
is not pretended, nor was it expected that
he would, when he was elected. Such
thing is simply impossible. No Presi-
dent ever has or ever will give entire sat
isfaction TO all his friends. But Mr.. Bu-
chanan has acquitted himself inst as well
in his day and time as Gen. Jackson, Mr.
Polk, and Gen. Pierce did i'll theirs and
such will be the conclusion of every In
partial and fair minded man who may
write the history of their administrations.
But we are OBTAINING our readers from the
Republicans article:
''THE ADMINISTRATIONS AND IT'S ABUSES
Some people appear to think that the pre-
sent administration is more abused than
any preceding it, and argue therefroni
that Mr.. Buchanan must have lost the con-
fdence Of the country by some improper
act. Those who indulge in this sort Of
speculation must have short memories or
know little of the history of our country.
Jefferson, Madison, and jackson, all had
to pass through this fiery ordeal, and Mr..
Buchanan is but enduring what they, and
all who take decided and manly part,
must except from the opposition. We
have seen within a few days past the Black
Republicans uniting to do honor to the
birthday of Jefferson The very men who
while he lived, exhausted language and
their own ingenuity in framing terms Of
aouse and reproach, hypocritically pre-
tend reverence for his name and laud him
as the first statesman. So with jackson
those to whom his very name was hateful
and who could not believe it possible for
him to do or say anything that was right
are now prepared to endorse him as an
able statesman and the truest OF patriots
So will 1t be with Mr.. Buchanan
After the excitement OF the hour shall
have passed, and the aspirations OF the am
bilious shall have died out, Mr.. Buchanan
will be acknowledged as wise and sue
cessful statesman, and his administration
be pointed to as an honor to the country.
We naturally expect that those who take
an active part in political strife, and who
most boldly and successfully oppose the
views of the opposition, will receive the
largest share of their abuse. And, there
fore. we esteem it a certain mark of homes
ty and merit when the many headed, but.
no principled opposition pour out their
Walls OF wrath upon the Administrations

Of this abuse with Jefferson. jackson and

The Administration.

We copy the following sensible and
truthful observations from the Baltimore
Republican. 1t is true, as that paper states
that every Democratic administration from
that of Jefferson to the present one, has
been misrepresented, maligned and abuss
ed by "the opposition" For our part we
are never surprised at any abuse which
"the opposition direct against Democrat
ic administrations. It is part Of thei
business-it is their stock in trade
The general policy of Mr.. Buchanan

as we believe it receives, the approval OF
large majority OF the American people

THE PROSPECTS OF THE CAM
PAIGN.

Let rs consider by the light OF history
the preparations which are now being
made by France and Austria for the con
duct of the present war. The campaign
which began by the entry of French troops
into Piedmont, and by the passage of the
Ticinoby the Austrians,is on a scale which
very far exceeds any former struggle in
these countries In the long wars the first
Napoleon it may be observed that the
armies continually increased in number,
while, it is said, the genious of the COM
mander and the prowess of the individual
soldier diminished. The brilliant cam
paigns of Napoleon's youth were made. at
the head of few thousand men. Maren-
go itselfwas gained BY $4,000, but the wars
OF 1905 actively employed about 10000
French, while in the campaignsof Wagrarn
Moscow, and Leipsic we have incompara-
bly, larger armies brought into the field
on both sides. Now, the war Of 1859 be-
gins on the colossal scale of the later En-
pire, and the armies employed may attain
dimensions such as no single State has
hitherto been capable OF producing. Pre-
cunning the struggle to be confined to
France and Austria, and to the field of
Northern Italy, we shall have the specta-
Gle Of a combat in closed lists such as the
world has never before witnessed. If both
the antagonists fight well and stubbornly
the conflict will be as interesting to the
military critic as grievous to the philan-
fhroplst. Both France and Austria will

to secure they will sacrifice principles and

to secure they will sacrifice principles and
friends.
We see these facts illustrated in our own
experience. Look at .he jim Lanes. the
Ellises, the Maces, the Mortons, and a
number OF that ilk in our own State. who,
within the past few years, have deserted
the democratic party and it's principles
with the hope to find reward and com
pensation in the loaves and fishes of know
notllingism, fusionism, or its last develop
neutrality-suspicious. Democratic
principles and policy survived these de-
feetions, and their treachery most signally
failed In its object. The vanity OF men
IN their influence and ability often leads
them to the founder upon that quicksand.
The almost innumerable failures OF men
who expected that their influence or abili-
ty would destroy the party by their defec-
ton should be lesson to those who are
about to wreck upon the same rock
Under democratic rules our country
has achieved its present greatness The
policy Of the nation is but the policy Of
the democratic party It's history is iden-
tilted with its principles, policy, and meas
ures. Such will be the future A tenn
porary defeat may for moment check
its progress, but it will only be to gather
more strength IN the returning wave
which will bear it onward.
From the days of Jefferson the oppos-
ton have ever been predicting the ruin
of the democratic party. They have ever
healed anticipated defectlons, schislns and
divisions, but whenever battle is 10 be
fought, it displays united and invincible
front. 1t will ever be so. Its principles
will ever be victorious, and its policy will
ever govern the country, for they are the
basis upon which rest the security and
progress of a government based upon pop
ular sovereignty and public will.
Absurd, then, is it to think that the de-
fection of a few men, great or small, from
the democratic ranks will stay its progress
or defeat its mission. It's righteousness
is the more apparent when we look at sim
liar developments in the past. What has
been will be, with the same results.
