Party Lines.


We had been under the impres.
sion since the commencement of
the war, that party organizations
could be maintained and the war,
for the suppression Of rebellion, as
completely and vigorously carried
on as though party lines were OBJ
liberated for the present. We are
10th to say that our mind has I'M
dergone a change within a few
weeks. When VIC look at the diff
| ficulties and persecution which the
Union men of the Slave States
have to cncOunter-hOw they are
compelled to hoist the white flag
or leave their home and property,
wo can not but feel with many
prominent Democrats, as we'll as
host of the rank and file of our party
that the present is no time to talk
about party organizations; but that
every man should feel that this
war should be brought to a close
speedily and that the only way to
bring this about is TO be united
people at the North, We are sat
isfed from close observation Oflate
that the course ofsome OF the lead
ing political papers and speakers
Of this State, is calculated to place
q dampOr upon the ardor of our
young men, and that enlistments
are thereby retarded. This will
be evident to every observer, as
the volunteer companies and regi.
ments lag sadly oflate. We know
not what could have produced this
state of feeling unless it is the po-
sitisn taken by our leading politi-
clans; and in the name of Heaven
and humanity if it be 80. let us all
unite in feeling and sentiment; and
encourage our young men to rally
to the standard Of our country to
aid in putting down this unnatural
and unhallowed Rebellion.
To keep mp party organizations
now, will lead TO "criminatiOn and
recriminaiions," and will bring us
in conflict with the State and Ma
tional Administrations in the pros.
lecution of the war, and this VIC do
not believe to be good policy, and
can not ourself, enter into such a
strife. Every friend ochis country
Ishould stand up for the caase in
this, her hour OF peril and need,
that this rebellion be put down,
and to effect this THE ADMIN.

lion hover over us, should sustain

may have a Government under
which we and our children cen live

In the name OF our common
country, then lot us cease party and

put down and peace once more

A Patriotic massachusetts OcTn

- EANANNAAN NAtAHatANNNaaNAAa ANENlA-
ocrut.
Hon. b. F. Hallett, a prominent
man among the Massachusetts
Democrats, has written a letter TO
a friend who is a delegate to the
Democratic State Convention, to be
held at Worcester to-day. lie Gays
that he himself shall not be present
and thinks it best for the Conven-
tion to make no party nominations.
1t is not necessary that the party
should be disbanded; only that its
action as a party should be sus-
pendel until the war question, the
only practical one at present, is set
tied. Until the Southern rebels arc
subdued, Mr.. Hallett says that he
belongs to no party except hiscoun-
try. The people have placed the
flag of the Union in other hands,
and it is now the duty Of Demo
Gratis to follow that flag on TO vic.
tory. The grand tradition Of the
Democratic party, he believed was
to follow that flag wherever it
waves in support of the Union.
lie then proceeded to show that
the Democrats of Massachusetts,
being in a minority, can hope for
nothing good from a contest ut this
time, and that by so doing they
will Rulliiy their late patriotic &C.
tion in recognizing the war as a
necessity on tho part of the Gov.
ernment. lie continues:
We are not responsible for the
policy of the Government in tax
ing the position of maintaining the
Union by war; but having come
up to that war after it was begun
by the fire on Fort Sumter, and
filled the ranks of our armies en-
gagged in t at war with Democrat
ic soldiers and officers, we owe il
T to them, and, above them, to oui
country, to make it as short and
effective as possible, by giving to
it all the moral, as we have all the
physical aid in our power.
The following eloquent sentences
conclude tho letter;
Let Massachusetts bo q unit in
support ofthe Union, and let there
be no division as to men in this
election.
l have no desire to influence the
fixed convictions of my political
friends, if, in their judfment, a
party nomination is necessary; but
after having been strict party
man all my life. e.long, and never
failed to deposit the whole ticket
OF my party in any election, l can
see in this greatest Of all perils OF
my country, a duty so much higher
than party, that it is easy to forget
| ever belonged to any party. And
in that light it does appear very
clear to my best perceptions, that
while a present nomination fol
State officers could result only in
exhibiting the seeming weakness oI
the Democracy by the few votes il
could rally in November, without
a single distinct party cry--it would
give a high tone patriotism, and al
honorable position to the whol,
+. party, but above all a great mora

the eve of my departure from your city.
During the day which preceded that night
of pleasant, yet mourntul memory, bad
hidden farewell to many Of those esteem
ed friends, Borrowing most of all, because
| thought that should see their faces no
more. It was then. evidently, glad SUI
prise, when with the descending shades of
darkness they came back to me in such a
generous shape; and a quaint fancy rises
IN my mind, tina. if The walls of that old

have ample and substantial evidence. |

attain to the knowledge and favor Of that
nunifcept Father of lights from whom
cometh down every good and perfect gift,
and with whom there is no varableness,
