JoHS q. New, Eso-THE CLERKsHIP OF Ma
RON CouSrY.-On the I'd instant, John c. New,
the gentleman who, for the past FIVE years, has
filled so acceptably the Office of Clerk of Marion
county, retired from his official position, and Will
liam Wallace, elected by the people, took his
place. Mr.. New is an accomplished lawyer. and
brought eminent qualifications to the discharge
of the duties of his position. Indeed, we have
heard members of the bar and Judges of courts,
as well as the public generally, remark that dock
cts were never better kept before, nor the bust
ness of the Office conducted so methcdically, sys-
tematically and promptly. We presume that Mr..
New returns to the practice of his profession, and
undoubtedly he will Immediately enter upon an
extensive business, taking that front rank in the
law to which his talents, requirements and expe.
rience entitle him. Upon retiring Mr.. New de-
livered a brief address to the Court. thanking his
Honor and the members of the bar, in pertinent
terms, for the courtesy uniformly extended to him
Of his successor, Mr.. William Wallace, we have
only to say that we did all we could TO defeat him,
and ardently wish that Michael Fitzgibbon had
been elected in his stead. Nevertheless. he is a
competent and honest man, a gentleman of edu-
cation and ability, one Of the most promising of
the young men of his party, and no doubt will
make a faithful officer.

From the Louisville Ky Democrat. sspAis
The Republican Party Must die II the
Union Lives.
The republican party is organised and
built upon the antagonism Of sections, and,
whilst it lives, the animosity its existence
engenders will not die. Its partisans have
plunged recklessly ON, sneering at Union
savers, and discredited those who sounded
the alarm Of dangers ahead. They derided
the cry Of wolf, forgetting that in the fable
the wolf did come at last. The first step
to restoration of the Union is disper-
sion of the republican party, disorgan-
ization of the whole concern, reputation
of the basis of its existence. Perhaps an
entire breaking up of parties in the North
might in the end answer the purpose; but
a union with the dominant party there
would be taken at the South as an acqui.
escence on the part of the minority in the
purposes and objects Of the majority
The whole North would be written down
as enemies. That the republican party
must die, if the Union lives, and that it
will die, we believe. Its existence costs
the country too much, and the sooner it
consents to pass away the sooner the ca
lamities of war will cease. Do they ex :
pect one section of the Union to FREEDOM
mate over the other at discretion, and that
upon principles that cause all the hatred
and animosity of the other? We submit
to all sensible men that this is impossible.
We make no apology for this wicked eff.
fort in the South to destroy the govern
ment. We grant the necessity of suppress
ing it; but abolitionism that has produced
it must also be suppressed. Abolitionism
and Secessionism must be buried in the
same political grave. The patriot who
loves his country must consent to sacrifice
them both. Seward said, "parties, plat
forms, and men must be sacrificed to the
Union" and he told the truth that once.
The Union men of the South have made
that sacrifice. We have given up parties,
and separated from old party friends. We
have given old creeds and platforms to the
winds, to save country and free institu-
tions. The people North must make the
same sacrifice, no matter under what name
they 60. Whilst we acknowledge the ne.
cessity of armies, something more is nee.
essary. This sectional antagonism must
be smothered out and buried. We want
now Union party north and south, com
posed Of men ready to sacrifice all, except
the cardinal doctrines of free institutions
to the one object-the preservation of the
! Union

The Policy OF SEPARATION. - The
Quincy ull) Whig E Republican assails us
with extreme bitterness for our opposition
to either of the alternatives which the
abolition wing of the republican party
presents to the people. In the bitterness
of its partisanship, it ascribes this motive
to our conduct
Separation or emancipation would put
the wounded carcass of the doughface de.
mocracy at once and forever below the sod
1t would not gasp again after either OF
these issues were accepted by the people
Separation would lop off at one blow the
political arm which has achieved every
Democratic National victory these many
years. The South-the low traitorous
and blood. dyed South-was the brain, the
arm and the heart of democratic power.
OF course this is false. The North was
the centre Of democratic strength, and il
was not till the party was divided and de-
feated at the North, that the enemies Of
the Union-the abolitionists and secession
ists-brought about its dissolution.
This false Wing and Black Rspubl'ca,
cries out for "war the bloodiest the world
ever saw-war until not STAKEHOLDER il
left above ground" but it looks as thu
alternative of the extinction of slavery
both of slaves and Shareholders, If neces
sary, it says to separation. 1t is in tha
direction that the abolition wing of the
republicans are now generally looking

cratic party should erect itself as wall o
stone.-Albany AryMs.

WHERE IS DUNCAN STEwARr9-Four
weeks have elapsed since the people-the
"plundered tax payers" were promised by
Duncan Stewart that he would make a
further exposition of the villainous frauds
practiced upon them by the Secretary of
War and Governor Blair. Again we ask
him, why, as an honest man, he does not
redeem his pledge? The people of Mich
igan will cheerfully pay any tax imposed
upon them to preserve the government, but
they are not willing to be "plundered'
any more. Duncan Stewart, distin,
guished republican, has charged upon the
administration the most outrageous frauds
yet no more notice is taken of it by the
bowling patriotic (9) republican press thar
to hush the cry, and the whole matter ends
with them by being blanketed. We car
tell Duncan Stewart, however, that unit
he proves his charges or backs out of them
he will be held in very low esteem by his
fellow-citizens--the "plundered tax-pay
ers" Of Michigan. If there has been
stealing until he redeems his pledge, hi
will be held accessory to the theft. Sine,

notice that Michigan troops have gone for
ward by the boats owned by the Western
Transportation Company, and, in view o
his silence, it is therefore rational to infer
that some of the "plunder" has been lib
orally used to buy him off. Will Duncan

Fremont's Proclamation Rectiflcd.

1t will be seen from our telegraphic
dispatches, that the President of the
United States has issued an order so mod
flying and rectifying that clause Of FIRE.
monts Proclamation which relates to the
confscation Of property and the liberation
of slaves as to make it conform to the late
act of Congress on the subject of confs-
cation. Itappears that the President, on
receiving the proclamation, promptly wrote
to Fremont, asking him to modify the OBJ
jectionable clause, but Fremont preferred
that the modification should be made by a
direct order from the Government, which
accordingly is done.
The President has made thorough work
of this business. The proclamation il
rectifed upon the points which we pub
lished on Thursday last. They are, first
the liberation of the confscated negro
Second: the restriction of the confiscatior
Of negroes to those cases in which they arc
used in promoting actual hostilities agains,
the United States; and third, modifca
ton of that portion of the proclamation
which recognizes no difference between
disloyalists who ceased hostilities against
the government, and those disloyalists who
persist in rebellion. The President re.
quires the proclamation to conform to the
law of Congress on this subject.
We have been confident from the first
that this matter would be set right The
right action of the President in the case
will sorely vex the secessionists. 1t ami

The OIL BUSINESS. is currently re.
ported that for two months past, the IT.
tusville oil region has produced 100000
barrels per month; and from o line of oil
wells eight miles up from the mouth Of
Oil Creek, 5000 barrels are produced
each day. There are seven wells running
from 400 to 600 barrels per day.
The Titusvllle Gazette Is, however, in.
formed by those protesting TO be thor.
oughly posted, that the flowing wells along
the creek are all very considerably dimin.
ishing in their flow. This is not at all
surprising, but on the contrary was long
ago expected. We are firmly convinced
that many, if not all oil men will yet feel
that they have rushed the oil business too
fast for the good of all concerned.
