The True Union Party

The Democratic party has ever maintain

friend of the Union. Il has never express
ed itself as being in favor of letting the
Union slide.' II possesses The same ardent

lion, that the Union may be restored but
in doing this il has moi agreed TO adopt the
princi pies OF the Chicago platform by any
means. The Democratic party draws
wide distinction .beiween supporting the
Government and sustaining the corruptions
of the preseLt Administration, and .deiests
Republican principles now as cordially as
il ever did. Il holds fhat the Chicago plat
form has broken up the Union and that it
cannot be restored or maintained By stand

The Eagic d ahsoluis Submission.


The Philadelphia Press, Of Saturday last,
in the course Of an article upon the refusal
OF the Democrats of Ohio and New York, to
accept of the Republican invitation 10 unite
upon common ticket, says Of The Repub-
lican proposition
aThey presented as mutual platform
this Simple principle Loyalty to the Uni.
.nn-confdeuce in the Adminisiration-and
an unqualified support OF ills war measures"
The Patriot and Union says the loyalty of
the Democratic party TO the Union is un-
nusstionable-but their confidence in the
Administration is not absolute nor are they
prepared TO give an unqualified support TO
its war measures. The democratic party
{ cannot pin its faith absolutely 10 any set Of
men, or promise an unqualified support TO
measures, without knowing in what direc-
ton those measures may lead. The acceP-
ieace of inis proposition would have pleds-
edsthe Democratic party 10 sustain any and
every measure that the Administration may
choose to adopt-whether right or wrong. IN
support or in violation of the Constitution.
Such ahject seryility may suit the Repubii-
cans, but the Democrats choose to pursue
an Independent course.

clear account of the engagement, and of the

was done, under The name of "Republi-
can.n As such they nominated Abraham
Lincoln for President, upon platform of
hostility 10 the equality of The States in their

hour, that domination was successful
| though not BY majority of the votes of the
people. Almost maddened with Joy at
their good luck, Republicans boasted loud
ly that their principles were now endorsed,
and would be establishes through all time.
But what do we see 10 day? That party
after but few mouths of power, is already
terror. stricken at the responsibility resting
upon its shoulders, and to avoid its crush

defeat. Republican leaders are positively

The Republican party is AFRAID to be called
up TO face its misdeeds-AFRAID to submit
its record to the judgement of the people at

upon which their candidate reached the
Presidency thus virtually acknowledging
that the Republican party is founded upon
wrong principles, and, by implication, that
the Democratic party is right.
This new name dodge will deceive no
reAecting man. A change of name will not
change The character of its leaders. They
will still stick TO their old hobby-ihe negro;

the terrible consequences il has brought

the stale of the case The promised bless

we have civil war, prosuauon in business,
the hardest kind of ''hard times" If the
Republican headers think they can stand or
this record, let them submit it 20 the pee
pie, by making straight out Republican
nominations The Democrats viii make
theirs. as usual. Let as have a manly con-
tes,-no petty trickery--and then The Peo.

iy, or they will decide that the country
must again be governed by that party which
has so long preserved it peaceabiy and

our loss at about Eve hundred killed and
twelve or fourteen hundred wounded and

number reported by General Mcdowell, at
