Northern Traitors.

The great body of the people Of the free
States of all parties are stanch friends of the
Union and Of the Constitution, and can never
be seduced into such political action as will
end in placing provisions into the Constitution
for further strengthening slavery, but we are
sorry to say that there are few persons. leaders
ofthe Democracy, who neither fair God or
regard man" who are doing all in their power
to support and encourage the Southern trait
ors in their hellish design Of founding an en-
pire ON the basis Of human slavery. These
men are doing more than the secessionists
themselves, by their aid and comfort to treason
to break up and destroy the Union. and to pre-
vent reunion OF the States. They pretend
love for the Urion, but this pretended loyeis a
sham - they are traitors - double-distilled
traitors, more guilty than their fellows at the
South, because these latter do not add the sin
ofhypoerisy TO their guilt. Some Of these
men were candidates Of the Democracy for
Congress or for other offices at the last election,
and having been rejected by the people in the
malisnity Of their spite. fare endeavoring to
aggravate the public troubles.
The New York Atlas, in the following plain
and truthful remarks, on this subject, hits a
large number Of these Northern traitors" a
few ofwhom are to be found in every State in
the Union:
"We are sorry to say that in this city we
have large class Of persons, who under thin
yeneeriRg OF pretended love for the Union, are
profoundly stepped in the most damnable trea-
SON and infamy. They talk patriotism. and at
the same time are chuckling at the humiliating
position in which the administration is placed
by being obliged TO give up Fort Sumter ana

IL contemplate abroad. Compared to such
sneaking, hypOcritical, white-livered traitors
Davis, rwiggs, and Co., are patriots and
Christians, for they have moral courage TO go
the whole hog; and rs they plunge into the
cold dark pool of secession, they glory In their
enemies.
These Northern secessionists, In their dis
cuise, are the very men the Southern secession-
lists rely upon for comfort and assistance TO
10 their resistance to the General Gov
eminent They are cunningly poisoning the
public mind, aud are continually informing the
people Of the South that the North will be d.
viled in case OfcollisiOn between the secession
lists and the general government. Had 1t not
been for them secession would have been dead
as door nail weeks ago. Heavens justice is
sleeping, but sure damnatiOn will oNertake
such pIOpt before long"
The Union and journal. [volume] (Biddeford, Me.) 1858-1882, 1861-04-05

collect well that this truth was not generally
admitted, even within their day. The erroro
Of the past generation still chung to many as
late as twenty years ago. Those at the
North who still chung to these errors, with a
zeal above knowledge, we justly denominate
fanatics"
1t is perfectly apparent from this, how
absurd are any attempts at concessions, and
compromises to coax buck the traitors he is
associated with. All Northern efforts at
Cancellation, short of the admission of slave
ry us the corner stone of our Republic, and
the introduction of slaves to do the labor OF
every State in the nation. is unacceptable to
the rebels. When the frcemen of the North
are ready to substitute negro slaves for white
mechanics, and consent to be governed by
people who believe in and will enforce this
new theory, then they may talk of "cOnces-
sions." Until thcn.they had better maintain
and insist upon maintaining the Constitution
our fathers made for us, and under which
we have achieved such great prosperity.

Union Sabbath school Concert.

On Sunday evening last the various Sab
bath Schools of our city met together at City
Hall, and united in Sabbath School con-
cert. This was the second occasion of like
nature, the first having been inlugurated by
Capt. Williams during his visit here, and
was, like the lirst, most happy and pleasing
evening to all present. City Hall was filled
to overilowing, and large numbers went away
being unable to find seats. The exercises
consisted of tho singing of many pleasant
little hymns by the children, brief remarks
from the pastors of the different churches
and Others, reports from the Superintendent
of the schools of their condition, and the
repeating of Bible verses and childish sacred
hymns by the scholars.
The harmony and union of feeling which
existed was delightful, and the evening was
enjoyed most heartily by old and young. 1t
is proposed to hold these concerts once in
every two or three months, and the first Sab
bath in juno has been named for the next
meeting.

Portland Redeemed.

ANOTHER RacrIoS.-Thc Republicans oil
Portland did nobly in their city election held
on Tuesday last, redeeming their city by the
election of Hon. VIM. w. Thomas, their
nominee for Mayor, and electing the Repub-
lican candidates for Aldermen and for Com

vote for Mayor was Thomas (RCpub) 2ilS'

Portland Advertiser, as it has right to be,
is jubilant over the result, appropriating to
its use the Biddclord Republican motto, "Let
the eagle Scream" which, as it was denied
the privilege Of screaming for Republican
success here, we are quite willing it should
do for our brethren in Portland. Tho Ad-
yertiser mentions the fact that for the first
time for twenty years the government of the
nation, the State and the city Of Portland
will be in the hands of the same political
party after Monday next.

TIE WORK OF REFORM. The correspondent
Of the Plymouth Rock says;
"Great CONSERVATION prevails in the Census
Bureau, as one of the acts which the new Sec
rotary of the Interior is now carrying into
effect is that Of reducing the force from about
go down to 90. which is all that can possibly
be employed to advantage. The late Secretary
(Thompson) was well aware of. this fact. but
still insisted upon crowding in this force. much
to the detriment Of the business OF the bureau.
Twenty live Clerks were removed on Friday,
and the work is still going on. A general re-
moval is also going on in the Post Office and
Treasury Departments, mostly among men of
an inefficient character aud ayowed disunionists
who have been kindly nuriured as the necessary
evils which nfest our government at the pres
ent time"

sAco.-ADJouRSEp TowS MEErrs0.-r The
Democrat Of this week gives three Of Its col
umns to detail Of the proceedings Of the nd.
journcd Town Meeting held on Tuesday Of last
week. According to Its report there was quite
q lively time, and somewhat personal debate
arose on motion to make the selectmen Over
seers Of the Poor. Mr.. Oliver Dyer "pitched
into" the report Of the overseers hot and heavy
and endeayored TO demonstrate that the alledg-
ell decrease Of s502.s3 in the expenditures for
the poor rs stated in the report was no saving
at all. We have no means Of forming correct
opinion Of this Poor Farm Controversy, but
II the popular judgment is OF any value
to test its real merits the electionofthe old board
by vote of nearly two to one indicates sad
and improper waste Of eloquence on the part Of
Mr.. Dyer.
ST. Shannon. d. F. Cole and VIM. Seaman
were elected Overseers OF the Poor. The most
unhappy part Of the matter was however. the
adjournment Of the debate from the Town Hall
to the streets, between Mr. Dyer and one OF the
oversecrs, in which there was o great war OF
words but we do not learn from the Democrat
that any personal injury was inflicted. Our
neighbor OF the Democrat seems to have been
stirred up considerably about this street rem
contre, but as Il terminated without any use OF
+" muscle" the public have no further concern
in the matter.
During the conrse Of the meeting the town
chose its unimportant officers, such as Survey
ors Of Lumber, Cutters Of Slaves, Pound Keep.
