The Time for Authorization Addresses to
Conservative Men.
The National Executive Committee of the
constitutional Union party and the Union Elec-
toral Committee of the State Of New York have
each sent us proof copies of addresses they are
about to put before the public.
We have not space to publish all the long
argumentative documents which the several
political committees are putting forth TO defend
their own positions and to attract voters, and
therefore the most we can do is to present
whatever live ideas they contain to our readers
in condensed form. Each of these addresses
contains some good matter in these times of
political revolution and change. That of the
National Committee is addressed ito the friends
OF American industry, especially in the States
of Pennsylvania and New jersey" and opens
with a sensible retrospective glance at the
history Of politics during the last ten years
1t shows how the slavery question has been
sedulously appropriated by sectional political
leaders, until the honest judgments of men
in both sections Of the country have been
perverted and misappled, to an attempt to
array the two extremes in hostile attitude to
wards each other. Through the unwise course
Of the democratic party, in assuming to be the
peculiar champion of Southern rights, it shows
that it lost the confidence and support of the
Northern people, numbers of whom were in.
duced temporarily to array themselves in the
ranks of the republican organization"
The great changes that have been made in
the aims and objects of the republican party
are then set forth. At first springing into ex-
istence from the opening of that box OF Pan
dora, the kapsas- Nebraska bill, sit made the
practical restoration Of the Missouri compro-
mise line the sole and avowed end of its ex-
istence.' 1t was asserted that when this was
attained its mission would be ended and in
this belief ''multitudes of conservative citizens
at the North gave in their adhesion to the new
organization In the last Presidential cleo
ton the new party erected as its sole criterion
Of political fellowship, the reclamation of
Kansas from the encroachments of slavery
This object is attaincd-Kansas is free;
and now the republican party aban.
dons its old position. and proclaims "an
internecine war between the North and
South" One other point in the course of the
black republican leaders ia presented truthful
ly. The friends Of American industry are
called to contemplate the radical division ex-
isting not only among the rank add file, but
also among the chiefs of the black republicans,
on the tariff question, and how antagonistic are
the two schools represented by the New York
Tribune and the New York EUening Post. The
twelfth resolution Of the black republican plat
form is exposed in its double meaning, and the
people are called to observe that these political
organs have merely made peace which is to
endure no longer than the struggle for Office:
that once attained their war will begin.
In the address of the Union Electoral Com
mittee similar ground is gone over, and the
anomaly of perpetuating party divisions among
ton Of a sectional President by minority of
one million OF the people, is peintedly referred
to. The design OF the black republican party
'to overthrow slavery in the States or, falling
in that, TO overthrow the Union ITSELF"
l. Enthusiastically condemned, and the North
ern people are called upon to exhibit
the same fraternal feelings which the
recent elections in the South have shown to
exist there, where "the latent love of Union
has burst forth with new and surprising force"
Both addresses call for a restoration Of peace to
the country by the putting down Of fanatic sec
tionalism in the North as well as in the South
These addresses both exhibit another evil
have got them up. They have not lost sight of
the great fact that the object of a union
among the conservatives Is to defeat the cleo.
ton Of Lincoln-a violent sectionalist and a
fanatic. The other conservative candidates are
accordingly spoken kindly of, and their parii.
sans are cordially invited to unite in the one
great object which all should have first at heart.
There Is DANCER in endeavoring to make the
principles Of this or that school Of politicians too
prominent in the combinations on a union
tic et, which the Bell men, as well rs all the
others, will do well TO avoid. There are thou
sands Of voters ready to cast their ballots Ia
any feasible union to prevent the cleo
ton Of sectional minority President,
as Lincoln would be IL elected, who are not
ready to 60 into any scheme to further designs
Of the political managers for Bell Breckenridge
or Douglas.
This IL the view that day animates the
great majority Of the people Of New York
They are determined that the vote Of the En-.
pirc State shall not be cast for practical
black republican disunionist any more than for
