Of every ono who loves his country and
the perpetuiy OF the Government more

men on the Republican side do not feel
that they can consistently support the
Union ticket We regret that we have to
differ with them. but hope that the second
sober thought. together with the influence
set them by the Republican members Of
the Legislature. in this hour of their cotin-
try's peril. will convince them Of the ne
csssity aud Importance of forgetting party
until the present conflict with the enemies
Of our bcneicent government and the glo-

ESGLIsH OPINIONS The following extract
from letter written by a gentleman who
ieit the United States to return to his Eoglish
home in the latter part of May, is copied from
the Baltimore Exchange:
For some tina past English journals have
mad nc information from the South very di-
rect. All the war news they receive is
through the Northern press, which is uecessa-
rilY er pdrte and ciouned by prejudice. This
has had an influence On the English Inns for
while thus deprived Of any save a modified
view of The merits and conduct of the
contest, people here are disposed to look lie
n'ently upon the Southern cause. / hear it
said frequently, 1--WE cannot iodge OF the
merits OF either SIDE, having but one 10 look
at" When YOU know that voice has YET
publicly vlndicatei the cause of the South
especially upon its constitutional merits nor
attacked the Administration upon is alleged
unconstitutional acts, Won Will not wonder
that apathy obtaiGs among people like this,
which cares little whether the L ited States
are al free or all slave States. Say what You
will, Englishmen are slow TO judge, and
mner hear both sides. With this political lii
difference, the cry is for cotton, and, take my
word Tor IL, cotton they will have.
