OF Secretary Chase is reported as saying,
that 'all opposition to the permsnency Of the
Union shall be confounded." That is what the
felly said who had watering machine, when
heavy shower OF rain came on-"Confound all
oppositlon!'
GcTOne OF our exchanges is in doubt whether
the Lincolntes ought to be called BLACK Re-
publican" or 'Pea Republicans" We used to
think that they were striped specimen oi
'VIack" and ''rea;" but since they have undertak-
en- the business OF Congressional legislation, we
think they are green"
| OF The Tribune copies letter purporting to
come from Fort Sumter, which says the fort has
still provisions loft for four months. The Tfi-
bune thinks 'the letter is probably forgery,
but If it be genuine, the writer was either drunk
or jestng." We wonder that the editor does
not come TO the same conclusion about all its
correspondents.
! GTThe Jefferson County Retormer, in re-
erring to the opposition against the Morrill, ia.
riff says:s "Tbe Democrats. every body knows
are quite soise." Thank you for the compli-
ment, and are glad to be able to return it, in
, part, for every body knows that the Republicans
have proved themselves quite otherOise.
The Tribune, as is its wont, has been consult.
ing one Gifts mesmeric mediums to find out
what passed between the President and the
southern Commissioners in secret conference,
and publishes the Revelations" Is MT this
new kind of eaves-dropping? However, the
revelations do not assure us, on its veraeity,
that they were obtained by clairvoyance, we
should have supposed that they were the pro-
ducion of one OF its editors in his normal state.
6TMr. Douglas said shout time ago, in
the Senate Of the United States, that the Ad-
ministration could not collect the revenue in
the seeding States, except by capturing all the
ports which would require an army of 100000
men, and alb annual expenditure Of $216 100000.
Besides an army OF 10000 men would be re
quired to protect Washington. II was said in
Washington that this estimate was furnished
by Gen. Scott.
GThe editor Of the Bath Chronicle SAYS
II thank God that the Democratic party has
check at last" Glad to hear that he thanks
God for anything, But, with all thanks Tor his
kind gratulations we fear the check is not worth
nliaeh, il it is en- the government OF the United
States, since II has ALLEN into the hands of the
Republicans.
6TIn Wilkinson's letter to Thurlow Weed,
some very improper family secrets are brought
to light. He says: 'the Reform principles of

sary." We confess to feeling some sympathy
for that once respectable lady, the Wing party,
and deeply deplore her sad fall, in being so ruth
lessly debauched by that anti slavery liber tine
who, we believe, originally came to this coun-
try from England. But we have neither res
pect nor pity for the negro bantllng, the Repub
lican party, which was born Of this illicit con.
cection.
GrThe World says: "The mission to Aus.
tria is thrown away upon petty politician, for
whose claims department clerkship should
have been sufficient" Is not the World a little
too hard on Burlingame, who is the only fight !
ing Republican in New England? There are
plenty of men in tina party, who, if we may |
believe their own speeches and editorials, would |
commit an assassination. but Burlingame once
offered to fight duel Alter all the barnyard |
demonstrations OF the Republican party, Bur-,
lngame is the only game cock we know among
them.
0TThe Chicago Tribune wants to know if
the Democrats "would believe the administra.
tion il it should come out and tell them all its
plans?" Can't say we should. We might be |
in the condition OF the jury who tried man for
stealing and, although he confessed the crime
they brought in verdict of mot guilty.

OtTthe Republican Press is feasting its apps.
tite for blood on the belief that Sam Houston
will orgtnize campaign Of war against the Sc
cessionists of Texas. But the following para.
graph from his address to the people will dash
the Republican hopes little:-

and bloodshed upon her. To avert this cal
