is unmistakab'e to the dullest observer.
We know 1t is very popular at this time,
with a powerful influence III Congress
and out of it, to assert that all parties
should be ignored and especially that
the Republican party should be aban-
doned and its principles sacrificed ;
that the Union is in danger and the
first duty of every Patriot is to save the
Union. We don't believe a Representa-
tive IN Congress will do much by way of
saving the Union. who begins by aban-
d%oning his principles. We believe that
Liberfy is worth more than the Union
and whenever a member begins to
abandon Liberty, and make concessions
to slavery, he has put it out Of his power
to help his country very much. Liberty
first, and Union afterwards was the doc
trine of the Fathers. First pure, hea
peaceable, is the doctrine of a Greater
than the fathers.
If Mr.. Hale desires an illustration of
the leoitcmate fruit of this doctrine, Il at
everything must be sacrificed for the
Union let him look at The last days of
the Wing party. 1t was full Of compro.
misses for the sake of the Union and ex-
cccdlngly anxious to save these good fel-
lows in the Border States who must have
something to stand IN. We never heard of
any good the country received from these
sacrifices. But the Wing party compro-
missed itself to death. j. S. Nj, !

The Border State Propositions

As the Hon. JAS. T. HALE, the mem
Der of Congress from this District has
been led into the support of the compronl-
ise measures agreed to by the Border
States. it becomes important for our read.
eps to know what these propositions are.
We think they are correctly stated as
follows:
/. Recommending the repeal Of all the Per-
sonal Liberty bills
2. That the Fugitive Slave law be amended
for the preventing Of kidnapping, and so as to
provide for the equalization of the Commits
sioners' fee, &c.
3. That the Constitution be so amended as
to prohibit any Interference with slavery in
any Gf the States here it now exists.
4. That Congress shall not abolish slavery
in the Southern dockyardS, a~rsenals. &c, nor
in the District of Columbia without the con-
sent of Maryland and the consent OF the in
habitaLts Of the District, nor without COM
pensation.
s. That Congress shall not interfere with
the Interstate slave trade.
g.. That there shall be a perpetual prohibi-
ton of the Afri AN slave trade
I. That the line of 36 degrees 80 minutes
shall be run through all the existing territory
of the United States; that in all north of that
line slavery shall he prohibited, and that
south Of that line neither Congress nor the
territorial legislature shall hereafter pass any
law abolishing. prohibiting or in any manner
interfering with African slavery and that
when any territory containing a sufficient
population for one member of Congress in

ETexas has passed an ordinance of
Secession by a large majority, with a pro-
vision to submit it to a popular Vote
We suspect secession will receive a dam,
per then and there, the Odd inst; but if
tie people sustain the ordinance it is TO
go into effect on the I'd of March.
Tennessee has declared for the Union by
an overwhelming majority.
In Maryland, the secessionists are com
pletely whipped out. and the furore is dy-
ing out every where-evcn in South Car
DINA.
The Peace Convention at Washington
being held with closed doors, its proceed
ings are very little known; but it is
known hat a Committee Of one from
each State represented has been appoint,
cd to report upon a plan Of adj ustment
No doubt some hualliating plan will be
adopted by a bare majority, and lacking
that unan;mity which which will give it
nny force, even among thinking south
erL-rs. No compromise can be adopted
that will give full satisfaction to either
section, without humiliation that will
destroy its practical effect. The South
has backbone enough to prevent any hu-
initiation Of its Interests ; therefore, the
humiliation is all for the North. Will
the North submit cheerfully to it 1t
should not, but it will.
