OPPOSED TO RECONSTRUCTION OF THE
UNIoS.-It is u significant fact, and one
which the people should bear in mind,
that the Abolition party, which C,nness
Il TO. have Joined, is bitterly opposed TO
a reconstruction of the Union. For years
the AbOlitiOnists have Eealously labored
to dissolve the Union they were the first
to threaten to dissolve it aud the first to
petition Congress TO carry into effect their
traitorous purposes. Docs any sane man
believe they are sincere ia their profeS-
siOns Of attachment TO the Union? Have
they ever manifested tho slightest dispo-
Sition TO defend 1t in the field from its en-
emies? lfsO, whenS They opposed the
war Of 1912 and the war with Mexico!
On the 9Th of June Nallundigham, whom
these miscreants and their hirelings de.
nouncc as traitor, introduced into Con-
gress the following patriotic resolution:
" Res0tred. That this House has heard with
sincere satisfaction OF the evacuation ni COrnth,
and the occupation of it by our army with0nt
the loss Of life, and that the thanks Of this
House are due Ia Major General Halleck and
the other brave men under him for this signal
achievement: and, moreover. that, iu common
with the whole country, this House would re-
lntce Ia sec the Constitution Us il is, and the
Union rs il was, maintained and restored every.
where without amy further tJTusiOn of fraierBal
blood"

1t is not for the Union they are fighting.
It is for the emancipation of the negro
and the suhjugation Of the South they are
"drenching the land with fraternal blood"
-~S~S
ADoLIrIONIsN, such as Rogers, ConneSs
4 Co. advocate, insists that the Federal
power shall he used to destroy the Union
by annihilating State institutions and dis
regarding State laws and State rights.
Democracy, on the contrary, would have
thr Federal aruf used "nct Eyr tAe pur.
pose Of overthrowing or interfering with
the rights Of established institutions of
those States, but to dctsmd and maintain
Tie s"prem0ey Of the Constitution, md
Ia preserte tie Onion, with all the digni-
ty, equality and rights of the several
States. unimpnired." This is the differ
ence between the two parties. 1t is for
the people to decide which party shall
triumph, and TO their decision we conf
IDENTIFY submit the question. The Demo-
cratic party has nothing to fear from the
fairness, intelligence and patriotism of the
people. They have approved it's platform
too often to reject it now in the darkest
and most perilous hour Of our country's
history.

CoHRECr DoCTRINE.--A Republican
United States Senator, Mr.. Browning. Of
Illinois, lawyer Of emincnce, in some re-
marks which he made lately in the Senate,
on the Coniiscation Bill, said
"If Congress has the right to conliscate for
treason, why not for murder, larceny, or other
ofieuse? and where does Congress get the right
To do this in respect 10 any offensey Can il be
possible that we have wandered 80 far from
the political faith Of our fathers as to admit
the fatal heresy that the right to confis-
cate the property Of n rebel or traitor attaches
without any conviction Of the offender? To do
so is to subvert the Constitution, and rend
awav all limitations sought to be imposed, and
establish Legislative despotism more capri
cinus and more fatal to the liberties Of the
citizen than any form ofgovernment on earth"
According to Mr.. Browning, the Re-
publicans, by passing the Confiscation
Bill, have "subverted the Constitution,
and established legislative dcspotism
more capricious and more fatal to the
liberties Of the citizen than any form of
government on the earth" Recollect,
