We rejoice 10 see the change that has
como "o'er" the dreams of our down
street neighbor lately. He has taken to
Democratic speeches by tho
column, in which il he continues we shall
bid him God speed.
The only objection we can file against
him in this is, that hedid not do the same
thing before the election, and hereby show
that he was opposed 10 sec.ionalism.
We are sorry that he cannot find Re
publican Union speech VIII erewith to re-
gale his readers. We know they are We
~ scarce. but he might give us touch OF
Cameron's endorsement Of Senator Bgler,
by way of variety. Wewill not, however,
insist on him doing so, knowing very we'll
that he occupies very perilous situation,
aud not knowing whether Lincolu's Cab
met will he filled by Greelyism or Came.
ronisin, no must continue to pray good
Lord and good David" not knowing
whose hards he may fall into, when he
applies for his Office; hence, he refuses
to publish the speeches Of the several
wings Of his party. ...
Our readers are, no doubt, aware that
the white coated General--Gree ly--has
commenced chopping the heads off O
number os the members of his party
aniong them, Seward, Cameron, aud les
ser lights and this has alarmed our little
neignbor awfnlly, fearing that the ssme
axe might be used in his case hence he
still continues Greedy! GreeiyV GRLE
1T ~
We can imagine nothing else tha,
could have caused him to utter the 'whop
per" that he had in his last issue. In
speaking of the success of the Union mer
in Virginia, Tennessee, and Kentucky
he says:
This has been doae by the firm atti
tude Of the Republicans in Congress and
OF Mr. Lincoln, who, by refusing to assen,
to any unreasonable plan OF compromise
have given the most efficient pledge in
their power that the new Administration
will stand BY the Constitution as it is"

The two Extremes.

ltseems by the latest news from Mont
eomery. Alabama, that the Southern
Congress in session there, have dstermin
ed to accept of no compromise by which
our present troubles might be settled and
for this they are called "traitors In the
last issue OF the Journal.
The conduct Of our Southern friends IN
this particular We will never approve, be-
lisying tito be wrong, and must result in
untold evils, both to themselves and TO US
in the North but if men acting in this
mann er in the South are "traito's," whA'
shall we say Of the same clas, or party,
of men in the North, who actlikc them,
and seem to have the same ends in view !?
We can see but very slight difference DO
tween the two-and that is in favor OF the
South, who have paid some respect, at
least, to their respective constitu ents. =
They have allowed elections to be held in
their respective States, in order to con
suit the public will, and have respected
their petitioners, and allowed them 10 be
heard in relating their grievances; and if
they are still TRAITORS" what shall we say
OF those in the North who have acted like
them with the exception of allowing Us to
vote and respect our petitions? 1tiswell
known TO our readers that the republican
party control all our State govern ments
in the North, ard the present trump "
Congress at Washington, but what hare
they done? Why, they are acting out the
same programme to the very letter.
Has not our State Legislature refused
10 eilser gran. or accept any compromise
that has been put forth cy the real friends
of the Union, though petition after pc,
ti,on has been sent in to them? Have
We no. also petitioned Congress to pass
some compromise by which peace woald
again reign in our borders2 Yes, truly,
wo have, More than half million Of
Northern petitioners have prayed Con
gress TO accept the Crittenden- Bgler, or
some such measure, for the benefit ofths
common good.
The action OF Congress and our State
Legislature has been mere suicidal an /
outrageous than that of the Southern Con-
gress, and still we hear the cry Of the in-
SO tia.ed hyena, "Stand tirmw mo back,
ing down p "save the Chicago platform,
il it should cost fifty Unions r
The men who give vent 10 these sen,i-
ments are indeed modest in calling their
allies in the South TRAITORS" II John
Cathcart will only adopt the argument
and brazen impudence Of the
editor of the journal, he will be enabled 10
declare before all men, and provo it. too,
with equal success to himself, that Cain.
was murderer, and that he is an
man.
II was said of one Of old, that much
learning hath made thee mad !" but in
this instance it is brass" For an Abo-
lition Republican TO find fault with
Southern dls-unionist, and prove him a
TRAITOR" for being guilty of the very
same acts with HIM SELF must bo truly
agonizing TO a small mind.
