The Right Kind OF Action.

The Republican Central Committee of
Ohio, a few days since passed series Of
resolutions dropping all party lines and in
viting the Democracy to join hands with
them in preserving the Union. We hope
that this action will obtain everywhere and
that we shall present to the enemy an un-
broken front.
In this solemn hour Of duty and danger
all political organizations should be dropped,
and mans capacity for any position
should be measured only by his patriotism
The old stagers and political hacks who
have subsisted on party droppings, will
without doubt, die hard. Never mind
their struggles. Let the people throw them
overheard as cumberers Of the ground
Let all parties, all papers, all men, join
hands together in the great and glorious
effort of defending the Constitution and up,
holding the laws. In the words of Douglas
let us say, "There is no personal or party
sacrifice would not make for my country
To insist upon the trihing distinctions Of
party, to maintain the petty chickering's and
wranglings of politics at the present hour
is fatal to our government and our cause
and that man who persists in raking up the
embers of party strife, that man who draws
party lines, the man who does not bring tc
each and every member Of the Adminstra-
ton his undivided support, that man who
does not stand out boldly, ready to sacrifice
his all, is TRAITOR TO the best government
God ever allowed to exist.
Danish slavery, Danish contrabands, ban
ish tariffs, Danish all the truckery of politics,
and let the masses of tho North from
Maine to Oregon, join hands with the gal
liant and sterling Union men of the South
In one fraternal brotherhood. Let us pre-
sent to tho world the sublime spectacle OF
an undivided people, unshackled by clique
or party, rising 10 defense of their common
country.
The good Ship of State which has sailed
so long and SO proudly, tho envy of the
world, is in perilous seas. We appeal tc

In tho JOURNAL of last week we copied
an article from the Leavenworth (Kansas)
Daily Conservative, in relation 10 Geo. w.
Click, which VIC believed true. As we
were coming from the secesh Convention at
the Court House on Saturday afternoon, n
senseless fellow-Benj. V. Click, assaulted
us. A heavy blow was aimed at our head
from behind, but We wardcd il off so that
we were only touched and our hat knocked
off. The poor fool did not again attempt
to strike. We had no thought of an attack
and at first could make no defense. Tho
rufIian was armed with revolver and had
half a-dozeu armed bulleys to protect him.
Tho most blasphemous abuse rolled from
his drunken lips, but of that VIC cared moth
ing. His friends finally got him off, but it
was not long before he had two other alter
cations, the last one came near being to
him death scene.
Mr.. Clicks course during the whole day
as VIC have since learncd) proves him any
thing else than a loyal citizen. We have
been told by those who heard him that he
hurrahed for "Jof Davis and Beauregard,'
and at grocery with glass in hand said
Here's to left Dayis and Boauegard, hoping
that france and England 1riA acknowledge the Con.
tedoratc States IN less than thirty days hare

Such man as this should certainly &C
to those with whom he sympathizes.
OF Mr.. G.'s murderous threats we have
no fear. We have no desire to provoke {
controversy with any man, we arc no fight
er or bully, but shall try and defend oursoli
If the article published in the JoURNAr
was not true, Mr.. Click or any of his friend
could have had the privilege of denying i
in our columns, and We should cheerful,
made all reparation in our power to corrcc
tho error; but threats of beating, shooting
or any such thing will have no other motto,
than that of the vile abuse he uttered--ou
contempt. Had Mr.. Click been sober W,
do not believe he would have made an,
such attack on us, but whisky put the devi
in him and he acted it out.

How Changed.

Twenty-eight years ago the Presbyterians of
South Carolina and Georgia, by their constituted
representatives, made the following declaration
upon the character Of human bondage:
"The influence of the negroes upon the NOR
al and religious interest ofthe whites is destruc-
tive in the extreme. We cannot go into detail
1t is unnecessary. We make our appeal to uni
versal experience. We arc chained TO putrid
carcass. Il Sickcns and destroys as. We have a
milestone about henecks Of orr society, to sink as
deep Il, tie sea Of rice. Our children are corrupted
from their infancy; nor can we prevent it
Many an anxious parent, like the missionaries
in foreign lands wishes that his children could
be brought up beyond the influence of the de-
PRAYED heathen. Nor is this influence confined
to mere childhood. If that were all it would be
tremendous. But it follows US into youth, man
hood and old age. In all our intercourse with
them 1.-THE slavesl we are undergoing process
of intellectual and moral deterioration, and ii
requires almost super-human efforts TO maintain
a high standing either or intelligence or piety.'
Men are tarred and fcathercd, and often hung
in those States now, with the consent of profess
| ing Christians, for entertaining those doctrines

Gen. POpe's 1000 mcn
RendezvOused Near Jefferson City.
Brigadier-G General Hurlbut was dispatch
ed to-day to select camping grounds near
jefferson CITY, on the Missouri river, where
some 10000 troops will be congregated un-
der Gen. Pope's command, as by special
order No. 10, Western Department. Gen.
Pope is assigned to the command of all tho
forces north of the city ofSt. Louis. These
troops will consist principally, if not entirely
of Illinois regiments. 1t is deemed policy
to throw Illinois regiments together by
themselves, and thus form one Grand arm
of the Western army. This division will
be ready for an advance movement through
Arkansas and Texas, toward New Orleans
as soon as this excessive hot weather abates
sufficiently to warrant the health of troops
in that climate. A part of these troops are
to be made up of the new regiments lately
accepted from Illinois.
The wise policy of ofthrowing Illinois troops
in conjunctive operation, and permitting
them to form and represent one grand di-
vision Of the army of the Western depart
ment, can not be too highly regarded
That they will give good account of them
selves no one doubts who knows the metal
ofthe brave"Suckers" and manly Ilinoisans

GIVEN UP.-Messrs. Gould, Edgerton and
Buckland, acting with the patriotic spirit which
caused them to endeavor to raise a company of
men for the defense of our common country,
fearing their effort would prevent the filling up
of Messrs Bartlett and Tylcr's company, have
withdrawn their roll. We were fearful that the
atrempt to raise two companies would prove
disastrous to both, and we are glad to see one of
them step aside. This insures the success of
Messrs. Bartlett and Tyler.
We are informed by Mr.. Bartlett that yester-
day morning there were upwards of 60 names
on his roll. He expects to go to Camp Noble
(Tiffin,) with his men the latter part of next
week.
