Are the Democrats Traitors !.

The organs of the revolutionary radicals are
charging that not only the nominees OF the Dem

The New York Tribune and Tunes make this
charge with especial frequency and directness
and the Tribune even goes - far 70 say that
the war has been comparatively unsu rcessfu

all Democrats are traitors. We have the singular

There is just this difference between Democrats
and Republicans. The latter have nothing to
sacrifice Ia the support of the Administration,
while the former yield long cherished political
principles to sustain the representatives Of the
Government Without the voluntary support of
the 9Th of January Democrats, the men whom
the Republican journals constantly deride as
"disIoyaI." as 'traitor-," TO day the rebel fug
would be floating in triumph on the Federal Cap
ifol. But for all this the Democracy receive
nothing from their political opponents but re-
proach. Mark the difference in the peril Of the
country between Republicans and Democrats. We
challenge Republicans to show single instance in
which they have regulated party for their country
We ask them % show what Republican dogma,
doctrine or sentiment they have abardoned that
the country may have undivided sdpportr"
Not one. Where then their patriotisml La what
single instance have they. except an name. dis
carded party distinctions Throughout the
Whole controversy the country has been made
subordinant to party.
The Democracy have been honest. while the
Republicans have not been. The Democracy
while cheeriulIy sustaining the Government,
have adhered TO their principles and organize
ton without disguise. But the Republicans at
the same time have been hypocritical Protesting
no partyism. no administration or party in power
has adhered more rigidly to party platforms, or
has been more exclusive in party patronage.
Where is the Democrat upon whom Mr. LINCOLN
has conferred a civil appointment On the other
hand he has decapitated every Democrat who
held a road postofice, and put in his place
some reliable Republican Under such circum
stances the Journal says there is not solitary
Democratic ticket In the State that contains the
name of a Republican" God forbid there should
be. II would be- the rankest hypocrisy If there
was. There is not an honest man but believes
that the triumph of the Republican" policy will
destroy all hope of constitutional liberty-the
continuance of the institutions which have made
W. q great. prosperous and happy people
To repudlate party under such circumstances is
only to oppose the best interests Of the country
is disloyalty to the free institutions won
by the valor aud framed by the wisdom Of the
fathers of the Republic. The Republicans are
willing to yield all to perpetuate their party rule,
while the Democrats sacrifice patronage and
political power to preserve and perpetuate consti-
tutional liberty. That's the difference between
Republicans and Democrats Who so blind that

assert that Mr.. Secretary SEWARD the ear
lie-t and most persistent advocate Of the univer-
sal emancipation OF the slaves in the United
States, as one OF the features in the prosecution
OF the war for the Union. Either Col. FoRNEY
is greatly mistaken, or Mr.. SEWARD has strangely
altered his position. as taken IN the letter OF the
latter to Mr.. DAYTON. dated April 20. 1862 and

companyng the annual message OF the President
Mr. SEWARD says. in urging that the existing
revolution is without cause or even pretext:
The condition of slavery in the several States
will remain just the same, whether IL succeed or
fail There Is not even pretext for the COM
plant that the diSaiiected States are TO be con
ouered by the United States if the revolution
fail, for the rights OF the States, and the condi
ton of every human being in them will remain
subject TO exactly the same laws and iOrms of
administration, whether the revolution shall sue
coed or whether it shall fail In the one case the
States would be Federally connected with the
Conieieracy; in the other they would. as now
be members of the United States But their
constitutions and laws, customs, habits aud nsu
tutions in either case. will remain the same II
is hardly necessary TO add To this IncUnte~tible
statement the further lact. that the new Pres
cent, as well as tie citizens through whose sui
frages he has come into the Administration, has
aWays repudiated all designs whateve r aud wher
eser imputed TO him ana them OF disturbing the
stem oi slavery ii Is existing under the Con

thal any such effort on his part would be uucon

aonld be prevented by the judicial authority
even though they we're assen,ed to 10y Congress
and the people.

the Secretary of State has changed his views upon

that he should have put forth State paper With
due elaboration and as the representative OF bis

Under the caption Of "CoNDuIrr's Record
the Journal of yesterday makes characteristic
mean and malignant attack upon Mr.. CONDUIT
for having failed to vote upon several PROPOSE
tons before the Constitutional Convention of
1850. OF which he was a member. 1t is indeli-
cate to bring before the public personal affairs,
but few words will explain why Mr. CONDUIT
failed to vote rs charged. On the day of the as
sembling of the Convention his son died. and at
the same time he had brother at his residence
who was very i'll. and who died shortly
after. Another brother was suffering under sc.
we're sickness during the same period and such
was his condition that he required the attention
OF Mr. c. These certainly are sufficient rea.
sons for his failure To attend and record his vote
at every daily session of the Convention. And
during the setting OF the Convention Mr.. Con-
prrrr himself for month was too sick to attend
its sessions. but notwithstanding his illness he
renamed at his lodgings in this city and was
taken to the Convention TO vote upon all import
ant propositions. Hear,less and vindictive in.
deed must the man be who would attack in
diEidual for failure TO attend 10 public BUSH
meas under such circumstances. The journal
does not charge that any public business suffered
by the absence of Mr.. c. Ii was not DELAYED by
his nor attendance. Ii any important measure
uas passed or defeated by reason Of his absence
he Is only responsible therefor to those of his
constituency who made him their representative
and they never have complained. but otherwise
have con6ded to him since then important public
trusts.
The charge that Mr. CoSpuIrr ever wilully
lodged" vote will be regarded as absurd by all
who know him. he is man of frmness and
decision of character. and not afraid TO assume
any responsibility delegated to him.
But the main object of the attack OF the Jonr
nsi is to make little capital out of the pay he
received As delegate 70 the Convention. Tbs

four months and the pay for the entire period Was

second to the largest drug house ia New

idea of the amount of business done by
this house from the fact this the store
occupies ten rooms, each 20 by 40 feet, all
Of which are crowded with goods Of every
description IN their line. In visiting the

hardened ones are frequently improved
bv it. although the cause of such improve

process has been applied to many other
cutting implements. The workman, at
the beginning of his noon spell, or when
he leaves off in the evening, moIstens the
blades of his tools with water acidilied as
above, the cost of which is barely nothing
This saves the consumption Of time and

wears out the blades The mode of
sharpening here indicated would be es-
pecially advantageous for sickles and

PLAN OF TIE REBEL DEFENCEs OF THE
ISLAND.

Island No. 10 was taken possession Of
by Com. Foote at a late hour on Monday
night. The Island our troops found an
immensely strong fortfication, mounting
fifteen guns Of the heaviest calbre. On
the mainland were seven batteries. all
strongly built and well protected, and
mounting each six, eight and ten guns, a
majority Of which were sIxtyiours and
thirtytwos, with fair share of l2S-pound
ers. The upper battery, which sustained
the brunt of the first days engagement,
was nearly demolished, but the rest of
them were uninjured. They extended
three miles in the bend of the river, and,
with the advantage Of their position and
the weight of their metal, they would
have demolished every gunboat in the
service. They could not have been taken
from the front. The rear movement was
too much for their fortitude, however
