THE FUTURE OF PARTIES.

The remark is often made by radical
republicans. that "Lincoln's Administers
ton has made Buchanan's administration
respectable" This 10 said with reference
to the conservative course Of the present
Chief Magistrate upon the question Of
slavery.
In truth, Mr.. Lincoln is as much "pro.
slavery" 10 his official action as any Pres
iden: the people have elected the present
age. Upon this question he obeys the
Constitution. and adopts its national and
concilasins spirit. 1t is 10 for this reason
be is sustained by conservative men. For
this reason he should be sustained, jus, so
far and jnst so long as be adheres to the
right.
Itie reasonable to suppose that the men
who oppose tho conservative policy of the
President must necessarily from them
seises into new party. or appropriate to
themselves the remains Of the republican
organisation. Probably they will tAke the
latter course. Opposing the constitutional
action and sentiments of the President
and Of a large majority Of the people, they
will make fight a. minority, more fearless
than formidable. All opposing elements
must as necessarily and inevitably adhere
10 the constitutional platform Of the nation.

CITY NE@s.-The greatest excitement pre-

BY the arrival Of Northern papers with the
news Of the retreat Of General Pope and the
evacuation Of Fort Donelson. People gath
ereo in groups on the corners. TIE hushed
voice and iuquisiliye glance which marked the
passage Of every uniform, near any batch Of

ture Of the sympathies expressed Business
continues vague and unsatisfactory. Much
dissatisfaction is expressed at the increased ex-
penditure of the city by new police, increased,

The London Economist, the most accurate
authority of its class in England, has the fol-
lowing paragraph in It's issue of July 20:
The fair proepect of a fine and abusdant
harvest, which, in the early part Of the season
cheered the hearts of the farmers has now
finally passed away. The importation Ct for
eign corn into Great Britain, therefore, viii be
fully equal to that in 1861, which, according
to parliamentary return just issued on motion
of Mr.. Card, the,nost scientific and successful
of British agriculturalists,l was 10, 760 ISL i'm
perial quarters. We may then confidently
look to large orders for the purchase of cur
cereals, and larger refux Of gold during the
present year. The quotations on the 26th uft.,
in London, for American and Canadian fancy
brands, was 2as to SIS for 1876 pounds.
The Cotton Lords of Rebellion will learn
after bitter experience, that the stomach of
Great Britain is more imperious than the spin
dies OF Manchester. That corn, not cotton, is
King.

The series of orders from the War Depart
ment which we published yesterday, oontsins
one clause OF the highest importance. II pro-
vides that, if the old regiments shall not be
filled up with volunteers before the Ist Of
September, y special draft will be ordered for
the deficiency. This draft. therefore, will be
in addition to The draft TO supply the deficiency
Of there shall be ANY, in the levy Of 800, 600
volunteers, and in addition to the draft for
100000. ~
have rot the data from which TO Judge
with any degree Of -sccuracy that the amount
of this new and superadi led draft will be. To
do ibis II would require that We should know
(ll precisely how many regiments there are
now in the service and what number of men
is needed TO complete thsir complement, and
{2) how many of the three hundred thousand
volunteers have enlisted in the old regiments.
We think it highly probable, however, that
not less than two hundred thousand men will
be needed to fill up the existing regiments.
1t is easy to see that the resort 10 this mode
of Hlliug up the ranks viii be attended with
some serious disadvantages. The men who
are drafted are bound to the service but fer
nine months--for Congress yFncs& unwiseIy, as
we think, gave tho President power to draft
for no longer q term. Now it is, Of course,
objectionable to smalgamate nine months men
Jylsh those in service for the war. But it is
SUI uhoto ONy t-os " IA w WIG IeSf-
ments at all. The one thing needful is "a
bring up the present skeleton regiments to
their full proportions. We can but hope thai
the term Of service for which they enter will
seesuch good work done that the business for
which they are called forth viii be practically
ended and no new levies to supply their places
be needed. &
