ernment, to maintain tue old Union I
 the end is to be another Government mo,
 new principles, it is not worth war. an, we had better stop and save what we cal from the wreck.
 From the Milwaukee News
 Democrats have engaged in this war witt the sole and exclusive purpose of maintain
 ing the constitution and the Union, but no
 with a view of subverting them. Sine.
 this war has been forced upon us, we are
 willing to ignore party and stand by the
 President in all constitutional efforts to de.
 fend the government. Beyond that VIC
 cannot go.
 From the Ohio Statesman.
 All the consolidation and nationality
 the mass of the American people desire,
 the federal constitution guarantees. For
 this guarantee they are willing to lavish
 their treasure and shed their blood. The name of the United States and the nation ality it implies, is as dear to them as the name of home and the sacredness of the altar. These are all entwined in the affection of loyal people, and they hold in the same abhorrence the miscreant who invades the sanctity of domestic life, and the traitor who seeks to rob us of our national life. From the Syracuse Courier.
 They who profess to support the consti- tutlon and the laws, and yet defy, ouerreocA and ogerrlde them, are even more dangerous to public liberty and more worthy of de- nunciation than are they who violate it without disguise.

Applied originally to contest with foreign invader, has it ever been applied to require the citizen to support, right or wrong" a judge, a legislature or an executive?

Nothing short of blood-letting, as Senator Chandler styled it, and that in profuse quantities, will satisfy these fellows who stay at home out of harms way, and yet goad on thousands ot others to engage in the strife Not a man Of them all-save, perhaps, Chevalier W Webb-has been known to display, at any lme, any very great amount of physical but they do not hesitate to ask hose around them, whose lives are quite IS valuable, to go into battle and kill or be ,'lled, so that some favorite theory about his controversy may be carried out. They 10 not want peace on any terms, and to prevent any consummation of this kind heyare now making extraordinary efforts. $ How long will the people be content to f e made dupes of, in this way? If the coun- ( ry could get rid of these troubles by incur z ing $500, 900, 900 ofdebt before the end of f his year, that would be a trihiRg sum, which s he nation could survive. But when it is I that the business men of the diff i rent States, no matter how employed, are | oomed to individual bankruptcy, and that le prosperity of the country will be put a ack for ten years at the least, it is time l. lat the people should open their mouths " some other way than to urge on the ar lies to wholesale slaughter They have f greater interest, and are actuated by purer S pives, than those who are pushing on n ese hostilities-scolding all the while that s cod does not tiQ2V abonI + and fast enough N
