The Right Kind of Talk.

We have been gratifed of late in noticing
the unity of feeling that pervades all par
ties here at the North. Party feeling seems
to have been done away. 1t is no longer
democrats and republicans it is patriots and
traitors. Everything now points to a UNI
TED NORTH! We hail the event with
joy. The following article from the Rutland
Courier, heretofore violent party paper,
speaks the minds of large portion of the
democratic party here at the North it is the
right kind of talk :
The Northern democracy have stood by
the South in all their constitutional rights
This is where they will continue to stand
with all sections. They have opposed the e.
lection of Mr. Lincoln. He is now constitu-
tionally elected president of the United
States. and the Northern democracy, even if
left alone. will see that he is inaugurated on
the 4th Of March next. They will see, too,
that ne VII meet with all the "aid and COM
fort necessary to execute the United States
laws in every state and territory of this great
and glorious Union, which political mad linen
are endeavoring to destroy. 1t is now high
time that the Northern democracy should
speak out, in tones not to be misunderstood,
secession" and "disunon" are words foreign
to our ears. The laws must and shall be ex-
ecutcd. The Union must and stall be pre-
serred. even though civil war RACES for years,
and blood flows ike water.
If the South is in earnest, the North must
be united, and ''ra'ty' must be Moited om
until the contest is ended. The question to
lie decided is. whether treason and rebellion
shall be suffered to lift its hvdria mead among
free people d? We respond No. No, New

L HE CALIFORNIAN.
BY C.. NJ. STONE & co.
St. Johnsbury, Friday, Jan. II, 1861.

Although week has elapsed since we last
spoke to our readers about the affairs of the
nation, not one whit of the interest that then
pervaded the country has abated. On the
contrary the anxiety for each days mail, and
to hear the "last despatch" has gradually in
creased up to the present time. And though
it NAV seem to some that there has not been
much progress made either by the traitors or
the friends of the Union, yet We will assure
our readers that the "irrepressible conflict
has been going steadily forward, and that we
are one week nearer the climax than we were
last Thursday.
From the standpoint of to-day things pre-
sent different aspect from what they did
one or two weeks ago. To talk Of compro-
mise with people who are already in arms
against this government is folly. And how
ever much some such measures might have
been wished for once by many of our good
citizens and all of the timid, they are now
apparently out of the question. Open rebel
lion at Charleston, treason in the cabinet. the
supply of the revolulionists with arms and
ammunition, the seizure Of government forts
at the South-these bold and reckless at
tempts to destroy the best government on
which the light of the sun ever shone, have
awakened the North from their apparent
lethargy to sense ofthe terrible evils which
threaten them. In this crisis party is thrown
aside, and we are glad to chronicle united
North and united Northwest in the sup
port of the UNION AND TIE CONSTITUTION.
Not only tim;d men, but all good men
shrink from war but We have been brought
to believe that there is so-cailed peace more
to be dreaded than war where great princi-
Piles are involved. We believe the policy of
this government and Of The North is to act
upon the defensive. Government property
must be hcld-our national capitol must be
defended-the revenues must be collected,
and the laws must be entnrced. There is no
middle ground. Peaccabe secession is an
impossibility. Believing thus, We are glad
to see that President Buchanan has made the
discovery that he has bockJone. All that
was needed one month ago was prompt and
decided action on the part ofour government,
and all this iniquity which has since been de-
veloped would have been nipped in the bud.
Let us hope that as one after another Of the
traitors leave the cabinet there will be nteg-
rity and stamina enough left to enforce the
laws. Let the watchword be: "TAe Union
it must be preserrel"

SAD.-We noticed last week the death of
young son of Rev Mr. Muzzv. missionary
in India. at the house of an uncle in Middle
bury. The Concord Statesman gives the Sc
cret history of this death which must be ne
cuilarly affective to the parents. 1t also
contains warning to rough and quarrel
some boys:
"He was returning from school and was
thrown down and jumped upon by his COM
pamons. He went home, complaining bu,

to have resulted from internal bleeding. two
blood vessels being found ruptured. A large
and severe brulse was also found upon one
side" WIZ

Mr. LincOln'S Cabinet.

Some little dissatisfaction with Mr. Lin
coins course has seemed to fill the minds of
certain politicians, growing out of the fact,
probably, that he appears to be making up
his cabinet without their counsel or advice,
and even without so much as "by your
leave" However, if the last program is a
true bill, all must acknowledge that he is
drawing about him some of the ablest men
Of our country, and in whose administration
We can feel the utmost confidence and great
est security.
According to the N. Y. Tribunes irforma-
ton the several departments will be filled as
follows:
State, VIM. II. Seward of New York.
Treasury, Salmon p. Chase of Ohio.
Att'y-General, EGvar Bates of Missouri.
War, Simon Cameron of Penn.
Navy, Robert Z. Scott of Virginia.
Interior, VIM. A. Graham of n. c.
P. M.-General, Gideon Welles, of Conn.
Rumor has heretofore assigned Mr. Gamer
on to the Treasury, but it is now supposed
that Gov Chase will fill that position, and it
is believed to be a judicious change. AS re-
CARDS the member of the cabinet from New
England, there is yet some doubt. Massa-
chusetts clamors for this distinction, and it
would seem almost improper to leave out the
old Bay State from the cabinet. 1t is almost
certain that if Gov Banks had not accepted
of the place on the Illinois Central railroad
which he has lately done, President Lincoln
would have had the benefit of his valuable
services in his administration. AS it is,
Charles Francis Adams is spoken of in con-
nection with the p. NJ. Generalship, instead
Of Mr. Welles, as printed above.
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1861-01-11

went as delegates and reported the doings of
that convention the following Monday even
ing. They, l believe, were the only delegates
from this town, and about the only persons
who attended from this county, which shows
conclusively that there is an alarming dearth
of real interest in the great matter of tenn
perance. At the request of the executive
committee, Rev Ira LeBaron delivered tenn
perance address before the society on the
second evening of the new year. Quite an
audience were present to hear MIN, and it is
hoped his remarks may have lodge in every
heart. 1t is too true that as the spirit and
zeal of temperance men subside, Incorporate
ores are to be found in greater numbers
The past year seems to have been one of re-
taxation and Indifference to the cause of tenn
perance, not only in our town, but in the
whole state. And the conclusion drawn from
the reports of the delegates from different
parts ofthe state at the late state temperance
convention was, that there is more liquor
drank in the state of Vermont to-day than a
year ago. Such fact ought to rouse every
temperance man to action, and while We have
our long winter evenings, with not much to
do, cause temperance gathering of the den
liens in every town as in yore. 1t will be
noticed by the last CALIFORNIAN that the
Young Mems Temperance Society's annual
meeting will be held at our village the 10th,
and it is sincerely hoped by our citizens that
full delegation will be out from every town
in the county. The committee of arrange
ments request that there may be full house
in the forenoon, and that none need hesitate
about coming, for Hastings" either by man
or beast, is excluded from the program"
