We can cordially endorse the above, and
unite in denouncing this unholy work. We
rejoice that our Federal and State Govern
ments have entirely obliterated party lines
in the disposition of military offices, and in
many instances civil Offices. This is not the
time for politics, and no body but an Unborn
tory will think of politics at this time.
The secession concern down-strect is one
of the kind that Col. Forney describes a,
pretending to an extra amount ofpatriot
ISM" and although we have never seen an.
evidence Of its affecting to despise Davi
and his brigand5 with strong emphasis,

visions, and delights in nothing so much a

movement in favor preserving our rlibertie'
but is not afraid to wound it in every bas
and clandestine way" The people arc b.

ever, and are dropping his Rip Van Wink
secession concern like shot potato" 1T

compel him to give in his adhesion to Il
Government.
