FIRST Il THE FIELD.-With q promptitude
which does it great credit, Mozart Hall was the
first to endorse the action Of the Union Com
rnittee on Monday evening. This body Of de-
nocrats is distinguished for its success in de-
featiDg, under the banner of Mayor Wood,
Tammany Hall, the Regency and the republi-
cans combined, in the municipal contest Of last
fall. The issue was then nationality in oppo.
eition to sectionalien, and the Importance of
the victory was felt aud acknowledged every
where. The free soil democracy of rotten
Tammany and the thorough republicans were
beaten by the nationalists of Mozart Hall. A
great impetus was thus given to the cause of
Union and now upon the same issue Mozart
Hail boldly and hravely leads the way. The fol.
lowing resolutions were adopted unanimously
by its General Committee on Monday even
ing -
Resolved That the present crisis in national poll,
tcs requires from patriotic principle sscr1oe Of per-
men for the FAKE OF the Unioo.
Resolved That We the representatives o. the demo.
Of the Union Committee aud pledge our support TO the
electoral cke, nominated BY That committee headed by
che representative 0; Hemau Redheld and Henry
:. Randall
This is in the right spirit, and we call upon
all political bodies throughout the State to
follow the example set BY Mozart Hall, and
endorse the Union ticket. A public meeting
ought to be held here at once to ratify it, aud
-eimilar meetings ought to be held 10 every
village and hamlet throughout the State.
Those who, under any pretence, oppose
this ticket must be content to be ranked by the
people among the friends Of Lincoln, for there
assuredly the people will place them. Had the
ticket been Douglas only, or Breckenridge only,
or Bell only, it would have been the duty Of
the other two sections to go for It, in order to
the defeat OF Lincoln. That Is the primary OBJ
feet. But a. all three parties are represented
mora or less On the ticket-the shades OF difie-
renee are OF no consequence becomes the
cacred obligation Of every man Of these three
parties, every conservative man In the Empire
State, no matter what may be the complexion
OF bis politics In other respects, to give the
ticket oil the support in his power. Thus sus-
tanned, 1t will be triumphant, and black repub-
licanism will receive It's death blow.
Who among the conservative candidates will
be President is another question, and
OF secondary Importance. II Lincoln be not
defeated. none of them can win the prize. Let
that be accomplished, and 1t is Of comparative
ly email Importance who occupies the chair
Of the White House. The issue is whether an
anti slavery revolutionary party, whose success
would break up the Union, shall sway the coun-
ellis Of the nation, or some conservative party
no matter which-shall take the helm for the
time being and keep the good old ship right on
ward upon her course. All other side issues and
personal questions and interests Of cliques
ehrink into significance beside this paramount
vital question OF the day. Ia the words Of the
resolution Of Mozart Hall, "The present crisis
In our national politics requires, from patriotic
principle, sacrifices of personal and party pre-
ferences, and the union Of all Union men for
the cake Of the Union"
