What ought to be Done !

1t is but natural that in the present distract.
ed state Of the county the South arrnyed in
arms against the government, making war upon
all ,hat we hold dear in the way Of political
rights-a such a time, we say, IS but natural
that patriotic men should investigate the cause
of the present troubles aud suggest the remedy
This is done by thai staunch iutlcxIhe, nncon'-
promising Union paper, the Louisville Demo
crat. We know Of no pape" in the country
that has rendered more faithful or efficient ser
vice to the Union cause none that has watch
ed its dangers and It's prospects with greater m
trcst--than the Louisville Democrat, and we
know Of 20 paper, therefore, that has a better
right TO offer u suggestion looking to the best
interests Of the cause Of the country and res
toration If the Uuion. The Democrat ventures
TO make the following suggestions, and their
appropriateness cannot fail to be seen and con-
IeSsed by patriotic men Of all parties;
1T would, perhaps, he thought prcrostcrous
but we nevertheless suggest it, that the repub.
licans disband and support the democratic can
diiates. They have made the experiment Of a
purely sectonaly party, and they see lis fruits.
1t threatens to cost them their country. They
can't have a Union with sectional deromlna-
ton. No matter how wisely and justly sec
tional party may rule its domination is itself
the vice that country will not stand,
This republican party is organized and built
up on the anita sonism of sections, and while it
lives the animos,y its existence eugenders will
not die Its p4rtzous have plunged recklessly
On. snccred at the Uuion-savers aud discrcdlIed
those who sounded the alarm Of danger ahead
They derided the cry Of wolf, forgetting that in
the fable the wolf did come at last. The first
step to a restoration Of the Union is dispersion
of the republican party. a dsorganization of the
whole concern, reputation of the basis Of its
existence
