responsibility vas necessary and so potent IN the
Revolution, il Is dOubly necessary and will be
equally potent now. when all the fathers aohisv-

imminent danger Of being forever lost. q.
Independent and unirammeled expression Of

safeguard of our Government 1t is only the
bane Of despotc and arbitrary Governments
This is truth that every genuine American
has learned from his cradle. Its practical ex-
ercise Is the palladium of his cCuntry's safety.
Tho perils of the hour demand that the people
exercise II In its full length and breadth, and
rebuke the spirit Of faction and fanatlcism
wherever IL exists, North or South, 80 that II
will forever hide its head In shame and dis

Ours is Q government Of the people. The
peoples voice, as regards that government, Ia
the voice Of God. This Is an old familiar truth.
Bat Il is now necessary that every individual
oltzen should realise that truth in its full force
and meaning. The people can save their Con-
sttution, preserve the Union, and maintain their
Liberty, BY the free unbiased expression OF
their real sentiments, BY making their will
known, and by refusing to place or keep In
places Of oface, trust and power those who re.
fuse to execute, or are dilstory In executing
that will. In no other way can the country be
saved. iaf ~ LE.r

for some great man to arise as leader and

suoh man has been recognized among us. Bat

Tho Two Sectional Factions- Tne
Work for Democrats and Censer'
vatlves. ".


The recent elections show immense Demo
cratic and Conservative gains, and In many In
stances most signal and unexpected victories
This Is cheering and encouraging to the itiend'
Of the Constitution and the Union. But
should not be allowed to induce in single In
stance a relaxation of effort; on the contrary
Il ehouid stimulate to redoubled exertion.
There is no mistaking she single great issue
row before the people'of this country. 1t is SC
plain tina. every man, who is,not willfully blind
can read it. Il is-shsll the Constitution be
main,aited and the Union preserved7 This
constitutes q single, plain and definite issue
for without the Union, we cannot maintain the
Consultation, and without the Constitution, we
cannot preserve the Union. Both must stanc
or fall together. An assault upon the on'
is an attack on the other. He who violates
the Constitution, levels blow ct the Union
and he who seeks to impair the Union, or ths
rights of any State as q member OF the uoion
seeks to nullify and destroy the Constitution.
There are tao great and powerful factions IN
this country-one NortherD, the other south
ern faction--each apparently excited BY ths
bit!erest and most relentless hostility toward
the other, and denounclng and psrsecusipg al
whom they imagine do not share the iuli'meas
ure Of their sectional vindlctiveness and partt
san malice. These two factions, notwithstand
Ing, all this apparent enmity, are evidently
II
working to o common -end-the aubverslon Of
the Constitution and the overthrow OF the
Union. g. ... -..-...5 ...a-
Nor Is this strange. Both factions are sec
tiopsl, Both originated In mere sectional op-
position and hate. They have involved the
country in civil war-section against section
The longer the war lasts, the more savage,
feroclous and exterminating It becomes and
the more extravagant the conditions of recon.
cilistion and reunion on each side become, the
less will be the hope or the prospect that the
Constitution can be maintained supreme over
she whole country, and the Union Of all the
States preserved. -, .a..t c .
The conviction is becoming general, that
nothing but the Democratic and Conservative
reserve force Of the country, which has not be-
come identified with these sectional factions
can oppose an effsctuAl barrier to their mad
Disunion schemes and save the country. That
reserve must now be brought forward, and be
made strong enough to head both the hostile
factions, whose Vaccinations for Q common
purpose--the overthrow of the Constitution and
the Uniou-are becoming daily more and more
effective, and will, if not Immediately aud sue
cessfully resisted, cousummate the object intend
ed. Let every loyal Union man, who feels
himself pledged to sustain the Constitution and
the Union, rally to their support, against all
factionists, whether Of Northern or Southern
growth, or whether they want to make negro
slavery or negro equality the corner stone OF
q new American Republic.

Quite large concourse gathered at the M Church at West Goshen on Saturday F. M in response to the proclamation of the President Gen. Moses Cook was called to the chair, and the meeting was opened with prayer by the Rev. G. W. Allen Mir. James L. Rice read Washing toms Farewell Adress. Brief and appropriate speeches were made by MT. H. E. Wing and Rev G. W. Allen, and informal but interesting re- marks by H. G, Wright, the chairman, and sev- eral others. MT. B. T. Howe thought the ad- dress should be introduced (for reading or study into our common schools. The chairman tho't if we had read it more frequently we should have avoided this rebellion. He himself would have left many of his political acts undone had this address been before his eyes. Mr. Rice could hardly agree with the address that we should bestow " good feeling" upon some foreign nations. It was too much to ask of Christian. Mir. E.

Harts Thiscase, which excited 50 much Iattsption, and took up so much of the tine of the Court last week, finally came to : lane and impotent conclusion on Saturday, by the dsoision Of the Judge, denying the peti- tion for divorce to either party. So matters stand very much.as they vers, before Goshen came down to Court, bringing it's climate, it's doctors, it's deacons, and its religious priviie- ges9 with it.

Party vs. Patriotism.

There are some men and some Editors SO con stituted that they cannot for the life of them see any farther than the length of their nose at any time, and especially in any emergency where the epod of the community or the country threaten. ss sinterfere with party machines and party poli sics. It is difficult for them to see any any thing greater than 2 mere party triumph, and they hsep step with alscrity only when they can hea' shs crack oftheparty whip aud the whistle ofthe party slogan. They fear that if they do not ad here strictly to party names and party watch words in every crisis, that the country, the com
 sunity, and every body generally will go to uni versal smash.
 And while these remarksa apply more generally b sO called " democrats" and democratic Edi tors we are sorry to say that there are few such paltry, sore-eyed, striped-pig specimens in the Republican ranks, even in this time O. trial of our government, when Republicans generally are desirous of uniting with all truly loyal men, who ssand up boldly, and face the. music manfully,-- the grand old cause and music of the Union.
 r Now, for ourselves, we do not hold with some t;mid Republicans who complain that the gov. ernment is doing nothing" and so would not vote the Republican or any other ticket this spring--nor with others who profess to believe that the Republican party has done its work, has triumphed in its principles, and must now be laid quietly by on the shelf. We are just as strong Republican in principle as we ever were in our life--just as strongly attached and devo- ted to its great cardinal principles and meas ares; but we trust we are not so blinded by par ty prejudice that we cannot see any loyalty, pa triotism or integrity in man who has not hith- erto fought under the Republican banner, and who did not vote for Abraham Lincoln. We be- 'Eeve, nay we know-that there are loyal, patri- stic men in nearly or quite every town in this County, who have hitherto called themselves democrats" who are nauseated and disgusted with the course which the leaders of the present "democratic" organization have adopted, and with the leaders themselves. These men are now honestly and sincerely in favor of the UN ION STATE TICKET, and will, with the whole Re publican party, vote that Ticket this Spring.
 Now, in the name of common sense, and com mon propriety, and common patriotism, we would ask. should these men be given the cold shoul der, and thrown overheard by Republicans Noi--not if certain editors and certain post masters should be fearful lest the Republican party become inconveniently large Let us anite then in our various towns and districts with such of our fellow citizens who are favor with us, of putting down tfe rebellion at all haz' ards, and of vigorous and unainching prose- cution of the war to the end. Let us go heart and hand together to the polls on this one issue. Time enough hereafter to sound the party Shib- boleth. Now, LOYAL MEN are only anxious for their couNTRyl

FALLS VILLAGE.

NEwsPAPoR1AL.-Some doubt seems to have risen in Falls Village as to who is the Editor of the Housatonic Republican. The good peo- pie of that vicinage have so long taken that weak drug for physic, they have some anxiety lest there may have been lately change of doc. tors. We can't enlighten, but observe the ca thartic properties seem much the same as of old.
 We have neglected, through oversight, to notice the advent of new four-by-nine sheet in Falls Village, entitled the Leader. It may be seen through microscope, and is "democrat- ic" The man in Falls Village who didn't take the Republican, for ulterior reasons, can now be accommodated with the Leader..
