and not the Union which has developed
those features of Democracy. And now
that this free labor, and this restless,
throbbing free thought are untrammeied
by the Union, the embarrassment will be
removed. The young giants refuse to be
nanacled.
The Aflicanized people of the South
have precipitated work which we be-
licve advancing civilization and the teach
ing Of Christianity would have, ere long,
demanded at the hands of the people of
tho North. The completely with the
barbarism of slavery, which the latter
have had forced upon them by the Union,
has become more burthensome every year,
and must have been thrown off voluntarily
before the lapse of many years. The
Union has done nothing, in reality for
freedom. Its legislation has been in
favor of slavery, when require to legis-
late between these antipodes. Then why
should free men deplore the loss Of tie
OnionY Separate peaceful existence Of
the sections are preferable to a Union
which is Unsatisfactory to one, and re-
tardS the progress of the other.
The creators of the Union sowed the
seeds of inevitable death at the creation.
They thought to beget healthy body by
an unnatural cross between right and
wrong. They thought to produce sym
metrical, harmonious whole, by blending
two conflicting systems Of industry--two
civilizations. How could they expect TO
be successful, when all history is against
them? All nations that recognize the
right OF one man to oppress another,
sooner or later crumblc into dissolution,
and in that extinction we bound to recog-
nize the decree Of justice. And why
should the American people alone hope
to enjoy immunity from the universal
doom?

\ Specimen OF Tsepublicau-Lin-
coin NO-Partyisru.

The Albany Argus and IAqs, after
showing the manner in which Democrats
had fought for and rallied around the
Government, to save it from the bad po.
sition in which it had been placed Iy
their Republican opponents, illustrates the
way in which Democratic generosity has
been met by the Republican Administra-
ton. 1t says Of it:
"The Administration party here has
shown no similar mugnenimity. 1t has
never risen above party, and has never
shown the slightest sign that it has been
conciliated or appeased in spirit by the
patriotism Of it's antagonists.
president Lincoln commenced by de
claring in his Inaugural, and as a prelim
mary to taking his Constitutional oath,
that the Chicago Platform was "a law to
him.
"He removed Democrats wholesale
from Office, merely because they were
Democrats,
"He appointed worthless partisans t.
high places aLroad-Schurz, Burlingam,
Cassius NJ. Clay, &c.-and filled many a
home with creatures of the same kind.
His party took advantage of their &C.
cidental majority to pass the Morrill, Tar.
itf-a suicidal measure to the business in
terests of the country.
"He carried his party discrimination
into army appointments, excluding Dem
ocrats from the regular service, and as
signing to them few nominal and I'M
important commands in the volunteer or
ganization.
GA system of jobbing and contracts
was organized for the purpose Of reward
ing partisans at the cost of the Treasury,
and of the suffering and deprivation Of the
troops.
"1n his recent Message he assailed fun
damental doctrines of the Democratic
creed, and gave out that his election was
to be vindicated by the war; and that this
was its main object! The spectacle of a
partisan Administration narrowing itself
and embittering its passions, and of
patriotic people rising above all consider
ations but country, and spreading its
broad bosom to the foe to protect it. is
one that is full of instruction"
After being guilty Of this conduct, the
partisans of the Administration in Ohio
already have the audacity to turn round
and ask those upon whom they have been
making war to turn in and vote ticket
upon which their names are placed.

What the Republicans PrOpiic-
sled.

The Republican press and orators, dur
ing the last Presidential campaign,
prophesied that the election OF Lincoln,
"Will give peace and quiet to the
country, of which it is sadly in need -
That all branches of industry will re-
vive, business will be good and wage
high :" .....
That 'it will kill off the heresy Of Sc
cession for all time to come y
That sit will strengthen the Union, re-
store confidence and friendship between
the people of the North and South -
! That "he will have an economical and
pure administration, aud so conduct the
affairs as to reinaugurate the times OF the
earliest Presidents"
WHAT THE DEMOCRATS PRoPHEsIED.
The Democratic press and speakers on
the other hand, told the people that the
election of Lincoln
Will result in the disruption Of the
Union;
In the destruction of all trade and COM
merce
Widen the breach between the North
and the South;
Throw the laboring masses out of en-
ployment;
ir crease the taxes OF the people;
And worse than all, would be likely
to create along. bloody, and expensive
war between the sections.
Reader, Lincoln was elected. Judge
for yourselves whether the Republicans
or Democrats were correct in their proph-
ecV.

VindicfiTeness against Demo-
crnIS.


Under this head the Albany (N. Y. J
Argus and Atlas has AN excellent article,
in which it says:
"At no time since the foundation of
the Government has party virulence so
ragged against Democrats as now. Dur
ing the alien and -sedition-law reign OF
John Adams, there was no such vibdic-
tiveness displayed. When Democrats
were punished for opinions sake, it was
by law, and the cases of conviction were
few. Now the vengeance of party is ad-
ministered by mob, and it purposes to
make all its enemies its victims.
This viruence and violence is mani
tested mostly in the Republican press
Wholesale abuse, coarse epithets, charges
of treason and disloyalty, insolent threats
of punishment, are daily uttered against
Democrats, and with rising vehemence
of tone and reckleseness of demeanor.--
1t is evident that the Administration
party intend to browbeat their enemies,
and put stop 10 the discussion OF
measures and principles by violence. In
deed, they DO not hesitate to own It.
"At the same time the most ultra views
of consolidation, the most latitudinarian
constructions of Constitutional duty, and
the most lax views of governmental obli-
CATION, are put forth by the anti-Demo-
cratic press, Uttering revolutionary doc
trines, broaching opinions at war with all
responsible governments, and appealing
to lawless passions against the law, the
Administration press seem to regard all
license of language tolerable, except sucl
as is heard in defence Of the Constitution
These expressions indicate long
boarded hatred of Democracy--a hatreC
that not only includes all the members o
the party, but its principles; and the ex
plosion of this long pent-up antipathy il
proportional to the length of tins il
which il has been held in restraint"
GEN. MARIoN's LAST WoRps,-A lift
of the above South Carolina hero, by
Mai. S. Horny, published in lS45, gives
the authors account OF the Generals las
words, which are very remarkable.
Ambitious demagogues will rise, anC
the people, through ignorance and low
of chang will follow them. Vast armie
: will be formed and bloody battles fought
And after desolating their country witt
all the horrors of civil war, the guilt,
survivors will have to bend their necks t,
the iron yoke of some stern usurper and
t like beasts Of burden, TO drag, unpitied
those CALLING chains which they have riv
, tied upon themselves forever"
