In the earlier days of the Republic the two great
parties were divided as to the power which the
Federal Government did or should possess The
Federalists headed by ALEXANDER HAMILTON, be-
heyed in strong central Government Mr.. JEFFER-
son was the head of the Republican p4rty which
opposed the cent alizng consolidating tendencies of
the FederaIists. BE said that the Union could be
destroyed in two ways: by consolidation or by dis
ruption and Of the two he preferred the latter.
General JACKSON and all the Democratic Presidents
down to Mr.. BUCHANAN were States Rights, Anti
Federal statesmen. We have seen developed within
the last few months more of Federalism than has
shown itself since the administration Of JoHS
QUINCY ADAMS. Not only those who are linesIy
descended, politically, from the Federalists of
old but even some with Democratic antece-
dents, Governor JOHNSON, among the rest, have
taken decided ground for strong central govern
ment, and some directly, some indirectly against
the sovereignty of the people Of the several States
Mr.. LINCOLN in his Indianapolis speech, rldlcules
the idea of State sovereignty and boldly announces
the Federal doctrine that a State bears the same
relation to the Federal Government that county
does to the State This is Federalism pure and un-
aduterated, and if admitted and carried into prac
tee, would soon reduce every State in the Union
TO the condition Of province.
We see that some of the Black Republicans are
DESTROYS of having their Federalism incorporated
into the Constitution. The New York EUsaing Post
leading Black Republican journal, speaking of the
prospects of compromise, says: !
Now that we approach the aera of good feeling |
and the commissioners of peace" have really start
ed upon their mission, we should look GbOut for |
safe and solid foundation Of compromise. 1t is OBJ.
Vlously useless 10 waste time in patching up terms
Of agreement, il the right of any State to secede at
its own sovereign win and pleasure, and thereby |
break up the Union at any moment be allowed. We |
would suggest therefore. as the first article of the
new compact, that each State should be irrevocably
pledged 10 bear true faith and allegiance to the Gov
eminent of the United States until the consent of
about three fourths of ell the States is obtained to
any change that might be proposed in its relations
to the confederacy,
We desire to warn readers against the rrgu-
menss of those who in their anxiety to preserve
Union with the auti-slavery States are willing to
sacrifice the fundamental principles upon which
our Government rests.

Intensive versus Extensive Farming.

The Hon. THOMAS G. CLEMSON, in his valuable es-
say Fertilizers" contained in the Agricultural
Report of tie Commissioner Of Patents for 1859, re
marks: Let that nation beware, whose exhausted
fields are forcing her PEG lie to emgrate Ciyiliza-
ton cannot exist, in the highest degree, without
dense population; nor dense population without
calling to its aid the highest resources of agricul
ture" Every word true. Patriotism and self-loTe
conspre to encourage the farmer TO pursue slich
course as will make his farm good one, not to be
erigrated from, but to stay upon for him and his
children, and his chldrens children. To have the
control of land and not make it better more prodnc
tive from year to year, is shame; to hold it year
after year, stationary, barely $3.50, no improve
ment, is bad enough but to have it growing worse,
less productive, approximatng the condition to be
abandoned, or given over to more energetic man.
is too bad. That those farmers who save their own
manure and purchase all the neighborhood affords,
who cultivate highly and get good crops, not only
have better farms to leave their children, but re-
ceive all the while higher profit on their labor
than those whs are wearing the land out, is plain
as the nose on mans face-as plain as if the pro-
jecting member were a foot long. Why in the
world do nat all farmers this and do likewise.

NEW ENGLAND IN THE War OF THE REVOLUTION.
is part of the revolutionary record that during
the whole war New England did not send one single
company South of the Potomac Gen. WAsH1NGToN's
correspondence shows how difficult he found it to
obtain military aid in Massachusetts, Let the pro-
test of Virginia to the Continental Congress be read
1t says to New England:
We were with you at Boston and Quebec: we
missed you at Savannah and Guilford: we were
alone at Trenton and Princeton anu row, when our
Continental contingent is full when Virginians are
defending New Jersey against the British in New
York when we have 10000 troops of our own in
the field a. home when all our timetables are heayi-
ly taxed and when the British forces are invading
our borders, you refuse, after frequent appeals to
send any Continental troops to our assistance Ex-
hausted in fighting the battles of the country on
every field from Canada to Georgia, we warn Won
that unless assistance be speedily given we shall
Withdraw our contingent, and fight by ourselves
and for ourselves alone.
This is the same New England that in the war of
1872 refusedtO fight outside of New England because
the "war was unconstitutional"

The Virginia Commissioners.

The men of Virginia who are engaged in the man
agement of her Federal relations. are not deficient
in brains. They know very well that their propo
Assembly, must not be presented as ultimatum,
but q basis of negotiation. If they attempt to in
sst that the Crittenden Compromise project of com
hitting the Government TO the extension of slavery
over the whole continent south of Sc deg. 30 min.
and the right of transit with slaves going through
the North, shall be accepted-they will, of course
meet fiat and emphatic refusal, and then pro-
coed to do whatever may seem good in their sight
