Country or Party.

The. question now is, country or party, and
every citizen must choose which Of these he
prefers. It's selfeyideut that there can be
but one party, or in other words, that there
must be perfect unanimity among the loyal
men Of the country, If this rebellion is ever
to be suppressed. Tie government must be
sustained by the unanimous and hearty CO.
operation Of al citizens, or its armies will be
weakened, its councils divided, and its pur-
poses thwarted But the administration is
not party in any just sense, at least while
its whole aim and purpose is to preserve the
Union Of the. States, while it has but one is
sue, and that ona about which all Union
men must agree. How can there be parties
without issues, some taking ore side and
some another. There is but one issue, AMI
that is the fife ofthe Republic. Who takes
the opposite side |? " 80 ~ ~
The President, the Congress. and all the
loyal States. are bonding all their efforts to
the accomplishment Of this object. That
object being one, the Importance, Of which
does not admit Of o difference II opinion or
action, they. have q right to the support Of
every man in the country To attempt
TO organize party in oposition, in such a
crisis, Is wrong, is anpatriotic, is disloyal.-
II u passing strange that there should be
but one opinion on this subject. FS's ''hai

God grant that the news over which
the country is now rejoicing, may be but
the precursor of other and still more glori-
