The selfsuffcient arrogance OF few Doug
las democrats who. this year, having deserted
their party, joined the enemy and done every
thing in their power TO sink the ship of democ-
racy, now pretending to lecture the officers AID
crew left as 10 their management of the vessel,
is certainly the acme Of modesty. They strike
at the heart of the party, and attempt to take
its life; but failing in that, are intensely exer-
cised for fear those in whose hands it is left,
should SO act as to tarnish the fair fame Of the
gallant old party Sirs, though you deserted
the party in its hour of need, and make war
upon it in its supposed helpless condition,
could ut you be prevailed upon when it dies TO
assist in giving ii decent burial, if Only for
the sake Of cid associations ?-provide your
selves with the necessary quantity Of cambria,
and drop feigned tear at the grave? But
whilst vitality lasts, save Us in our fluctuations
from your treacherous concern about our vel
fare. Mcclellan will scarcely ask JEFF Davis
how to sustain the honor of the American flag
or save the old ship Constitution in the present
struggle; nor will we, in the present political
contest for the supremacy Of Constitutional
Government for the Constitution as it is, on
our part, against the big her law, revolutionary,
union-shrieking, repu bican- no constitution, one
man party on the other side, ask or receive ad
vice Of those who have deserted US in a sup
posed dark hour, and joined the forces of the
enemy. A set Of wolves in sleeps clothing
crying " country above party to cover up
the most barefaced attempt of set Of purely
" axe to grind politicians that ever banded
together in this State, TO thrust themselves
upon the people. A set of men whose only
concern is TO find the strongest party.
Then. kind srs, deser'ers, don't trouble
yourselves about the fair fame of Democracy;
you have deserted the standard We in whose
hands it is left will take care of its honor
Our principles are nailed TO the mast They
are the only constitutional Union compass by
which to steer the ship of State We require
a sufficient crew to man the vessel we will
have them, desert her as many as may. She
will out-rde the storm, and land in safety at
the haven of liberty her precious freight, the
Constitution, the Union and the rights of the
people.

QUEEN VICTORIA IN HER BEBEATKAEHT.
The life Of this estimable woman has
furnished many evidences Of the noble heart
she possesses, and through them she has
come to be regarded ss q model Of her sex.
In every vicissitude-and she has had
many, though she is ruler Of milliens-her
large, msgnanimOus, faithful soul is ever
found triumphant Her recent bereave-
ment in the death, Of the Prince COasOrt
was terrible sfiiOtiOn, but she bore it
with her accustomed fortitude, never for
moment losing sight Of the greet rsspOn-
sibilities resting upon her a. 3 moth
er and q Queen. The London Times
speaks as follows Of her conduct :;
HWhen the first passionate burst Of grief
was over her Majesty called her children
around her, and, with q calmness which
gives proof Of great natural energy, ad-
dressed them sin solemn and sSectionste
terms. Her Majesty declared to her fam
lily that, though she felt crushed By the loss
Of one who had been her companion through
life, she knew how much was expected of
her, and she accordingly called on her
children to give her their assistance, in
order that she might do her duty to them
and to the country. A friend at Windsor
Oastls oondOled on Sunday morning with
the Queen, who replied, Il suppose must
not fret too much, for many poor women
have 10 90 through the same trial"
