peal to US TO abandon our party organization
How shall We respond? We have been Demo
Gratis because we believed the success of that
party and the adoption of its principles would
secure the prosperity of the country and the con-
tinued Union of the States. For no other reason
have we been party men. Is there anything in
the past history of that party that jnstfes us in
abandoning it? Did it not have its origin in the
early days OF the republic, aud was not Jefferson
its apostle and jackson one of It's chieftainsg For
sixty years past has it not been connected with
every great movement of the Government and
identified with its pocy7 In the adoption of that
policy which has extended our borders and carried
our flag westward to the ocean; in the negoti-
alton of the treaties that regulate our intercourse
with foreign nations, and secure our commerce
upon all seas, and in the enactment of the laws
which, because of their excellence, have become
| fixed and permanent. and in every contest Tor
civil and religious liberty the Democratic party
has stood in the front ranks. During all the
time of the ascendency OF that party We have
been a united, happy and prosperous people, and
our country has advanced in its career of pride
and greatness But in 1860 that party was de-
feated and in its stead the Republican party came
into power, and five short months of its rule pre-
sents our country in its present condition. But
is the proposition to abandon party frankly and
honestly made? Do the Republican leaders in
tend to act upon it? In his inaugural did not
Mr.. Lincoln say that the Chicago platform would
he the law to his Administration: and in his
cent message did he not repeat that it was proba-
BILE he would adhere to his inaugural? And are
not Democrats driven from all civil Offices 10
make place for Republicans Then the Repub-
lcan platform is to be the policy Of the Admins
tration, and Democrats are everywhere to be
prescribed because of their political opinions, and
vet they are asked to abandon party Ii simply
means that Democrats are asked to ioin the Re
publicans and to make in the North gigantic
sectional party.
Is there anything in the present condition of
the country that win allow Us to abandon the
Democratic organizationf Have we not been
ruined by sectonalism North and sectionalism

South-by the appeals of demagogues North and

For Separation.

The Journal avows that it still is in favor of
letting the States which desire to leave the Union
depart in peace. Here is its declaration to that
effect in its issue of yesterday:
If they will lay down their arms, and come
now to the nation for permission to separate, we
shall again say ives" for we have no rea-
son to change the views we advocated last win
ter.
That is a candid admission. The Journal is
still in favor of diSpnion. Mark that The
Grand Jury will have to take notice of these
reasonable sentments-for such they are, ac-
cording to its standard of treason. But
the central Republican organ resorts to a
diluted skim milk argument to justify the
war We give it to show how an imbecile
organ sustains weak Administration. 1t
says: 1--WE are not fighting to subjugate any
body. but simply to resist attempt, by foi ce of
arms, to subvert our Government" Now every
body knows no such an attempt has been made.
The rebel States simply ask to be let alone-to
be recognized as an independent Confederacy.
The Journal is willing to concede a separation
when the rebels lay down their arms. Nobody,
says TIC orSan' II W De su'yuS"eeu, IL 10 "lihho
that every State that WILL leave, may go, if it is
a peaceful separation, and that the Administra-
tons object in waging the war is ''simply to re-
sist an attempt, by force of arms. 20 subvert our
Government" When it becomes apparent that
no such purpose exists, then, according to the
Journal all cause of war must cease, and the war
itself be brought to close. Such is the reason
ing and position of the central organ of the Re-
publican party Of Indiana. Could they be weak
er or more contemplate?

The Republican press, and even some assumed
friends of tue late Senator DOUGLAS, are parading
some of the utterances OF the departed statesman
as being in favor of the dissolution of the Demo-
cratic psrty-an Abandonment of the principles
and policy of which he the lifelong advocate
and defender surrender in part to the sectional
party who happen to have the control of the
Government-the success of whom he ever re-
garJed as the greatest calamity which could hap
pen the nation. Mr.. DogesAs believed that the
Democratic party, that all parties and all citizens
should be subordinate to the Constitution and the
Union. The support of the Government upon
the principles and Tor the purposes it was organ
lied he regar led the first duty OF every loyal
citizen. This was the doctrine he announces in
his late speeches and the sentiment he advocated.
But the Republicans have placed upon the utter
ances of the dead Senator meaning different
from that he intended. What did he say in his
last public speechf-"Whoever is not prepared TO
sacrifice party organizations and platforms Jn the
altar of his country does not deserve the support
and countenance of honest people" Was this
sentiment addressed to Democrats alone? BY no
Is it not equally incumbent upon Republican as
a Democrat to sacrifice party organizations and
platforms on the altar Of his countryT Republi-
cans demand this of Democrats and are unwilling
to manifest the same libefal and patriotic spirit
In the present great crisis of the country, when,
according TO Republican Interpretation we are
struggling not alone to preserve a government.
but to find out whether we have one, the Repub-
lican Administration devotes most of its energies
D. prescribing its political opponents for opinions
sake. and opening the door of the Treasury to its
political and personal friends. We do not know
which is the more apparent. the imbecility or ava
rice of the Administration. Both are charged
upon its members by their own friends, and we
are willing to submit to the judgment OF those
who should know them best. That such men
should attempt to shield themselves behind the
patriotic sentiments Of lifelong opponent, and

The Constitution of the United States must
not be superseded by the law of necessity, y

mentaries on the Constitution with a patriotic

tolls and sufferings and blood of their ancestors

The Richmond Enquirer has the following NJ
tice of this centleman's release:

The Richmond Enquirer has the following no
tice of this gentleman's release:
"Hon. T. A. r. Nelson, of Tennessee, whose
arrest and arrival here have been noticed, has
been released by the Confederate Government.
Mr.. Nelson declared his purpose to acquiesce in
the attitude and the relations which Tennessee
has chosen for herself and the duties consequent
thereupon. He acknowledges allegiance both to
Tennessee and the Confederate Government His
high character gives abundant assurance that his
engagements aud declarations will be honorably
complied with. Our Government therefore could
have no reason for his detention, and we are
pleased that the Administration has ordered his
discharge. We trust the generous course of our
Government and the patriotism of Mr.. Nelson
will have happy effect in promoting the quiet of
East Tennessee. Mr.. Nelson will probably issue
address to his people before long"
Col. Nelson's arrival home is noticed in the
Jonesboro (Tenn.) Express in the following la
comic paragraph:
Hon. 7. A. r. Nelson, who has been on a
brief visit to Richmond, arrived at home this
Thursday morning"

And my friends, | agree perfectly with Judge
Douglas, our great and glorious, our lamented

PREPARATIONS FOR THE HEGIRA- MEETING OF CONGRESS AT CHIcAGo.- One of the Chicago papers. .contains the following paragraph:
 :" It is rumored that President Lincoln has sent private secretary to Chicago for the purpose of ascertaining if suitable ar- engagements can be made for the assembling of Congress here on the fourth of July next.' IL is more than probable that the extra session of Congress called, will not assemble in Washington. Old Virginia has ranged side by side with the Confed- crate States in opposition to Lincoln and his policy of subjugating the South, and the vulgar hords that now defle the high places in the once proud Capital of the United States, will not long be permitted to scheme and plot against our peace and safety on Southern territory.

 "Walking down the street in Washing ton, I met distinguished gentleman, a member of the Virginia Convention, whom know personally, and had few minutes conversation with him. He told me he had just had an interview with Lieut.. Gen. Scott; that he was chairman of the committee appointed by the Vir- ginia convention to wait upon Gen. Scott and tender him the command ofthe forces of Virginia in this struggle. Gen. Scott received him kindly, listened to him pa- tientlv, and then said to him: I have served my country under the flag of the Union for more than fifty years, and as long as God permits me to live, l wlll de- fend that flag with my sword, even If my own native State assails 1t. 7"
 { We will state, on the authority of dis tnguished member of the Virginia con- vention, that there is not a word Of truth in the above statement, so far as the con venlion is concerned.
