The Policy OF the Administration.

The Policy Oi the Administration.
We suppose that there can no longer be
any doubt as to The policy of the Admins
trat,on at Washington: it is the employment
Of the army and navy to compel the seeded
States to return TO their obedience to the Fed
oral Government. Against that policy We
have from the first protested We believe i'll
to be suicidal and unworthy enlightened
craftsmanship. We believe it to be dictated
by the rankest disunionlsm, whose great OBJ
iec is 10 produce two confederacies, or to
bring about h, abolition of slavery in every
Southern SAFE. Lincoln has been forced to
adop' il by the radical Republicans, and il the
face of his repeated declarations that his pol
icy was not that of war, but that Of peace.

The above whining emholies the ger eral
tone of the nulliferS throughout the entire
Northwest. Now let us see what john w.
Forney, the warm friend Of Stephen A, Doug

| No only is The capture of our country en-.
dangered, but little doubt is entertained that
conspiraces are Matching in our midst, AMI

States b,gins TO make it respect tble. Even

to be found on the corners of our streets in III

is, therefore, o a question VII sther we shall
be prepared for trouble, but whether we shall

the jingle Of the pure metal. There is moth

the Enquirer. Its sympathies are with tn
