TMe DemA~craafc Party.
The odds and ends thsrags, tags and
bobshils Of all partiess now associated
nnder Eha name and style Of the RApub-
hsAa party, are predicting taat in 1860,
kAsrs win be no Democratic party for
shis grand esnglomeEasien Of al parties
and selors-khe Republican party 10
consand against Ths leaders are arow-
ing most Justify just At this sims, over
whas they suppose 10 be q split in the
Democrats party, upon the Tariff quss"
tioA, and are predicting that the party
unst 20 10 pieces, on account Of the dis
agreement upon this question.
This prediction il quite natural fer
party 10 make, that always is governed
In its action By ths one idea principle;
but they shoald bear IN mind, that the
DemOerasiC party 10 governed By prinei-
pies which snbEacs the whole Union
While 1t might be Cor the interest Of
PennsyivanFa, 10 have heavy duty lev
led Hyoa Iron, or for Louisian@ to have
ths daty on sugar increased such duties
or Tariff might be injurious to the bal
ance Of the Union, and therefore the
Democrats party Shoss principle is to
eansuls the interests OF lbs whole Union,
and lsA thsiR legislation be governed by
the greatest good 10 the greatest number
of haE oitiEsns, would not pass Tariff
aes fox tha bens6t Of thsss two ststes.
FL apoa such Cd occasion the Democrat
ie aasznbers Of Congress, from these two
States shoald disagree with the balance
Of thsir paxty, ths Black Republican
party, through it's leaders, at ones pro-
oiain 10 tia world, The approaching dis
solutian Of ths Democrats party.
We would ask, when has the Demo-
srntie party bsen unis upon any meas
ureS Thsy we're not united upon the
United States Bank question, shey ware
moi. anitsd upon the qaestion Of Internal
Improvements by ths General Govern
msnt, they are NOS united upon the ina
pxoyamant of rivers and h&EboEs, thsy
mausr have been unit upon the Tariff
question and We can see no great cause
fer alarm, bseause they are not g unis
upon ali questions at tbs present kims.
IL our Republican friends s4n see any
cause for eongrasalating sash other up
ON The prospects Of the dissolution Of the
Dsm0sEstis party, they ars perfectly
waleosns 10 shs pleasure such ansiCipa-
aicns afFord tham. We saink, however,
that they are, a. usual, having their
good sime before slscziesi, and as IL is
ali Ghs good sims they do have, we hope
thsy viii snjoy ID hugely.
