WEDNESDAY, DECE4BER.7,. 1859,

CNIoS-sATISG At THE NORTH.
Ths telegraph announced Or. Yesterday morn
ing, TINT preparations wero. making Y lh'ln'
da.pAia for holding great Union Meesiogin
that city this evening. 1u the absence Of my.
thing more dtlai1c rs to tho objects Of the
meeting than liz contained ir tue dispatch atore-
aaid, NC conclude that it: is to be regular
"Eniou-savine' a1.l;r, nfter the manner E
those got up several years ago by the Castle |
Garden Committee. While we yield to no one
in loyalty to the Union. VIC have no language
sufficiently strcng to express our hearty con-
tempt for the eetters up Of these so.called
Tniou demonstrations Their true significance
indicates not 50 much tue Existence Of devo-
tioa to tho Union, us Of po1troonry and dough-
faccis,n. Culike the fathers of1ae Republic,
who formed the Union for the purpose Of ''es'
tah':saing Justice, insuriug domestic tran
guilty, securing the blessings Of liberty to
ourselves and our pos!erity," etc, the sole Oh"
jec. Of these Eacn is 10 rel!cn;sh their Golfers
with Southern dollars, and to assure Southern
merchants and planters that for the accomp-
lshnent Of this purpose they ure willing to
conccde every principle Of the Federal Consti-
tuition, to witness an entire reversal Of the
policy q: the government as established By its
founders, and, in brief to make any coaccs-
MONS which it may please tho South now or
at any future time 10 demand This is the gum
and substance Of what Cuioa.saving" ut the
North means. whether the demonstration takes
place in Castle Garden or in Independence
Souarc-whct:lcr conducted under tho aus
riccs Of t!c merchant princes Of New York, OF
Of the drab.coated millonaires Of tho city Of
bro.hcE!y Lore.
The time alay come-and the effect Of such
meetings Us Tie ono 10 he held ut Philadelphia
IL undoubtedly to hasten it-when there will
bo s:u,s fitness Ct things in holding Union
meetings in tho free States; but there is no
occasion for Them now. Whence conc tlreats
Of disuniou? On which side Of Mason and
D:1oa's line are disloyalty and treason cata-
loc1,ea rs political virtues? If The salvation
Of the Enion. for the love Of it 10 the object
Of these Ph:aaelphlans, why e1pend 1hci'
strength upon people in whom that feeling
is the r;:iins oEc-wli: rot 60 to tue Sontt
where disunion sentiments arc popular, ane
kinIie anew tho love Of tile Union in heart:
wholly given up to disloya!ty? There is 1ht
true missionary ground for genuine Union
sasoss-sherc, not here where the Union is re
vercd, and where tho masses stand ready,
need bc, TO icieal it with their Ives, tl,ci
fortunes and their sacred honor.
Nc FAY 10 tho rould-bo 'Sunion-Savers
at the North, that their servility may secnr
tue custom Of the Cotton Lords Of tho Soutl
but it eau Lave no other influence at HON
than to excite lhe disgust and lortaing Of es
cry honest citizen aud true patriot. That dt
vo.ion to the Union which ismcasurcd by do
lars a!one, which seeks to perpetuate it By th
8ac.ilce Of every principle Of justice and b,
1nanity on which il was originally based, wi
meet vita no sympathy among free peop]'
outside tho temples Of Mammon in tho gret
cities. Let the dou.lEaccs and lick.spittlcs
Philadelphia aud New York make note
this fact, and scck hereafter 10 acco,nplis
their sordid purposes in s more private va.
aud ty 1neaus that will not render them so e,
tiIcly odiors 70 tue Loyal and patriotic masss
Of the fIec Ssates.
