1t is becoming now quite apparent that an
attempt will be made by Northern men, at the
next session of Congress, to end the present
war by some miserable compromise, which shall
give the traitors all they have ever claimed
With this view, Mr.. Converse recently intro
duced in the Senate of Connecticut resolutions
recommending a cessation Of hostlitics, and
the calling of National Convention, and op-
posing war upon the seeded States, "while

long and labored leader evidently approves that
plan of settling the g difficulties - between the
North and the South.
These Indications of a purpose still existing
in some quarters to take advantage of the de-
sire to avoid the horrors of war, and in that
way patch up a peace that will, if it secures
nothing else, secure to the South what they
miscall their rights, and at the same time de-
feat Republication in its attempts to keep
Slavery in its present limits, show the necessi-
ty CT Republicans now, as much as ever, stand
ing firmly by their colors, and yielding not an
inch of ground to an enemy that never fails to
take advantage of such concessions The truth
is, Democratic principles are no better because
they are held by man who is fighting the bat
ties of his Country. than they were a year ago,
and we have just as much to fear from them
now as then. Of course we are glad to know
that a Democrat is not trailer. But the fact
that he is a patriot makes him none the less a
Democrat, as we think tino will pretty clearly
demonstrate. And if we care to have our
principles developed into a National policy, we
deem it of the first Importance that we still!
adhere firmly to our organization, and lave no
hesitation, on any proper occasion, to give ex-
preston to our convictions of the rights which
Freedom has under our Constitution.

We arc informed that one of the leading OBJ
lects OF the " no party " movement is to throw
overheard Lieut.. Governor Underwood of Bur-
lington, who has held Office but one year, and
to fill the place with some Democrat. Levi Un-
derwood is one of the ablest and most accom-.
pshed officers that has ever filled the chair of
presiding officer in the Senate Chamber, and he
is genuine and hearty Republican. Both by
courtesy and by his own merits he is fully en-
titled to denomination, and we know that
his host Of friends in this part of the State will
not willingly consent to see him sot aside
Phenia.
We really cannot believe that anybody seri-
ously entertains the expectation Of succeeding
by any dodge in leaving Mr. Underwood off of
the ticket to be nominated here next Wednesday.
i" no-party' movement of that sort would
be very speedily reauked, we should suppose,
by every one who ever pretended to be Re-
publican. If there are any such schemers,
their schemes will be summarily disposed of, if
the Convention represents at all the Republican
party.
The Federal forces are doing some splendid
work in Missouri. Gen. Lyon is evidently the
man for the place, and gives the Rebels no time
or opportunity to concentrate their forces. He
does not make long proclamations that mean
nothing, following them up by diplomatic notes,
friendly conferences with the traitors, and gen.
tie expostu lations, but he uses gunpowder and
Sc. Ihe Rebels in that State are finding trea-
son u particularly hard road to travel, and we
trust and believe Gen. Lyon will finish the work
he has geographically and brilliantly begun,
and dive treason speedily from Missouri at the
point of the bayonet.
