Maintain your Prime iples.

With the excitement of disunion, secession,
papers and party have been trying to food the
Country it was all very natural that the Re-
publicans should feel the responsibility Of their
position, and be led to fear that perhaps they
had been too hasty, and had acted without
proper consideration Of the result of their ac-
tions. Many were as much surprised to find
that they had elected their candidate, and prob
ably more SO, than the rest would have boon to
nave been defeated. In this excitement it was
firm and determined ayowal of their belief and
we found the party in "a very unsatisfactory
condition. Members Of Congress, in looking
home for aid, found fear and doubling in place
Of frmness and assurance. They could not be
expected to be bold and defiant with no sus-
tanning or encouraging power to back them,
and for u time temporary advantage was
gained, II temporary reaction took place, ard
the Democracy were gong on swimingly with
til it MAJ be doubted whether there was SIN
gle spark Of Rcpublicanism in the plans which
were proposed and discussed for the pacifcl-
ton Of the Country.
In this time, the South had, Of course, taken
this layoring opportunity to get as far towards
secession as possible, and hence the mbecile
state of things existing. With the last few
days, however, sad change has como over the
spirit of these Southern dreamers, and their ar
rogance and insults upon insults, have, at last,
forced the Republicans back to the old stand Of
the Constitution and the Union Had they
been reasonable in their cxactions, they would
have obtained some compromises and conces-
sions, but the day Of compromise with Slavery
and rebels is past. The Republicans are con.
scious of no violation Of the Constitution, and
will concede nothing of principle nor honor
The approach Of the time Of the Inauguration
Of the President and the determined tone of
his speeches, has sent thrill through the
Country and everywhere the people are cx-
7 claiming haii TO the Chef see, The conquer
ing hero comes The Republicans have re-
turned to determination to stand by their
principles Of no violation Of the Constitution,
and no further extension Of Slavery; and with
the help of Cod maintain them, and en-
courage our representatives. and President to do
their duty faithfully.

Hail TO THE CuEF.-The enthusiasm with
which the President elect has been greeted, on
his rather circutous route to Washington, is
cheering to the hearts of the people at this
time, but not without its impresslyencss upon
Mr.. Lincoln. lie must be lorcibly reminded of
what the people and the country are expecting
of him, that he is looked TO as the pacifer of
our troubles, and the man who is to bring order
out of chaos. This isa great responsibility,
but Mr. Lincoln shows that he is aware of it,,
and is prepared for it.

March Meeting.

Everybody has, Of course, read the notice OF
the first constable, posted upon the doors OF
their town halls, calling them to the election
Of town officers on the first Tuesday in March,
and also to deposit their votes for a uit.-be
candidate for County Commissioner. In most
Of the Counties of the State, we have heard OF
the nominations. and good, reliable, law
abiding men have no doubt been selected in
each County for the sutlragos of the people
The Temperance law has come TO be fixed fact
in our State, and however much some may OPP
pose certain nominees, all seem to concur In ac-
knowlcdging the fact that the law must be exc
cuted In most Counties. more than one can
ddato has been selected, and the people are
called upon to give their votes for those who
will most faithfully curry out the provisions OF
the law. There will always he wrangling and
party differences sometimes merely in the cliqu,
or name, without n shade of difference of prin
cipe, but oftener with diTarenceoi principle
moral or political, in which 1t is the place oil

More TREAcnERY.-Eyery day gives new
light INTO the condition of national affairs, and
reveals new acts of corruption and treachery
in the government. The examination of our
navy shows that every available snip or steamer
but two, had been sent to some foreign Icudcs-
yous, where it would be impossible to recall
them in case Of difficulty on our own coast
This has been done by the outgoing admins
tration, the more to cripple the incoming, and
enable the South to demand concession, or sue
ccssiully resist the government in enforcing the
laws, With such state Of things, and the
length of time the south have had to mature
their plans, and set their schemes On foot, and
u treasury entirely empty, it will be difficult
undertaking to bring order out of chaos, and
We must be patient, but it will be done.
