| DO NOT accept man OF parry ao9''
ton, but Judge them by their deeds Let
their antecedents be well known and uh1er-
stood. Bv this rule we are willing the Re
publican party shall stand or fall. There Is
not Disunionist or Secessionist in its ranks.
Every Republican is loyal to the Constitution
and laws of the country. 1t is necessarily SO,
for II Disunionst cannot be Republican.
Look to the record of the respective parties
before deposting your ballot. Examine care,
fully their past history, and if you wonld
surely guard against the very appearance OF
disloyaltv, vote for that party, upon whose
garments the taint of treason has not as yet
been discovered. IS. r. Times.
The Republican party is not free from the
taipt of treason. Scores of Republican pa
pers at the East advocated the recognition OF
the independence of the rebellious States,
months ago. The New York Tribune, the
editor of which paper was instrumental in
the nomination of Abraham Lincoln for the
Presidency, labored exceedingly hard last
winter to manufacture public opinion in favor
Of permanent disunion, using for the purpose
the usual Secession arguments, that the North
and the South could not live peaceably to-
gether because of diversity of interests, etc
The real National men of the North were
both shock cd and alarmed at seeing the bold
advocacy, in Republican journals, of the
policy of " letting the South 60" The fall
of Fort Sumter .torced the peacea6ie-separa-
tioaists Of tie RcpuJlicdn party to declare in
favor of the Union of thirty States.
Whatever may have been the intention Of
the President and his constitutional advisers,
with reference TO the rebellion. it is a part OF
history that the dismemberment of the
American Union was openly and zoalously
advocated, few months ago, 10y prominent
! Republicans including Horace Greeley, the
great representative man Of the Republican
press. The Times would do well to labor
against a relapse Of its own party into the
| palsy of peaceable separation" with which
some of its limbs were SO lately affected, and
let Union Democrats alone. But for the
-" tainted Union Democrats, perhaps the
Union sentiment would now be much weaker
il not nearly extinct in the Republican party.
The FOURTH AT SAN FEANcIsco.- The patr-
otto people Of San Francisco celebrated the
Fourth on grand scale. Thousands OF
American flags decorated private and public
buildings, there was an imposing military
demonstration, grand general procession; an
oration, poem, etc, at the Metropoliton thea
tre, and gorgeous display Of fireworks at
night. The procession occupied an hour
passing given point The grafton, by Ed
ward Tompkins, Esq, was very able, but, the
Bulletin says, too lengthy for the occasion.
The poem, by John r. Ridge, is a production
worthy of his brilliant genius 1t may be
found entire in another column. Dir. H. NJ.
Gray read the Declaration, and there was ap-
propriate music and singing by Andres
Band and "The Twelve" OF the military
display the Evening journal says:
At no time in California, and seldom in The
! great States of the Atlantic, has there been
such a display of arms as was seen yesterday
10y the citizens ofSan Francisco. Seven COM
panies of United States troops and two regi-
ments of our city volunteers fully equipped,

enhanced by the presence of Major Gen.
llallcck, Brig. zen Sumner, and Brig. Gen.
Cobb. each surrounded by brilliant staff
commanded the unmxed admiration of the
immense concourse, attracted to witness it.
At half-past / o'clock IA Brigadiers salute
fired by the California Guard, announced that
Gen. sumner had reached Washington
square, where The troops were i'll line pre-
paratory to this inspection.
The arrangements and order which CHAR
acteraed the review, reflect the highest cred
it upon the skill and conduct of Brigadier
Gen Cobb, under the trying ordeal, sub ject-
ing his brigade to the military inspection Of
a veteran officer of the OCULAR army That
he achieved complete success in this, was
manifest to experienced eyes, and sufficiently
| apparent to the thousands of admring gazers
who filled the adjacent streets and houses.
Upon the east side of the Square the United
States Infantry were drawn up, occupying
that entire portion On the south the First
Regiment of California militia was in line,
and upon its right appeared the representa-

len Sumner, with the Black Hussars, de-
tailed rs a guard of honor to him for the
day, having taken his position in the square

a full review of the infantry, the two bate
ries deployed with the square, and the Black
Hussars exhibited some cavalry movements.
