The Broken Pledges of the Republican Party.

Parties like men arise, hoorish, and pass
away. In a country like ours, unless a
parry is based on 'the principles of irnmu-
table JUSTICE" and its adnerents are cemen-
ted together by higher and nobler aims than
a wild scramble for place and power, il
soon dwindles away before the silent touch
of the hand of time, and is buried in The
sea of oblivion. A party to be successful
must be truthful and honest in all its acts.
II should have Cor its foundation principles
which have their existence in the Constiiu-
ton of the United States, and policy as
progressive as the age in which it exists
Without these necessary qualifications no
party has existed in this coantry beyond
the brief period of few years. The great
secret of the success OF the Democratic par
ty, is to be found in IFS strict adherence 10
principle upon all occasions. No prospect
of temporary popularity, has ever induced
its members TO desert The path of duty
They have always preferred to suffer defeat
rather than TO otdesert the principles ir scrib-
ed on their platform, and they have patti
entity awaited the development of he So
Der, second thought o. the American peo-
pie, with the full conviction that their ac-
tons would meet the generous approval Of
their countrymen. In this they have been
able TO retain their consistency as a party,
and maintain permanent ascendercy in
the political affairs of the nation.
How has it been with the Republican
party? Elevated TO political powel in a
struggle which has shaken the Uniol from
centre TO circumference, it is now in the
las, expiring throes of its earthly existence.
Frand, corruption, deceit and broken Hedges
will mark its downward march Until il
sinks beneath the waves of popular indig-
nation, and lies accurseG of God anil man
forever. When the pent fires OF anarchy
and rebellion were about 10 burst foth
from the excited and infiammable IlopulA
lion OF the South, the Republican piIriy as.
sumed for tae lime conservative iliiiiude
on the question Of slavery in the s ates.--

Rebel Atrocities.

The horrors of rebel supremacy in East
Tennessee have not yet been told. A men,
Der of the Forty ninth Indiana regiment,
now at Cumberland Ford, says that the
three hundred refugees, East Tenaesseans,
have enlisted within a week, from whom
he gathers the following almost incredible
stories of the barbariiies inflicted on the
Union men by their rebel tyrants:
One man sixiy-hve years old, attacked
hy large force, refused TO surrender and
ailer being morally wounded, having first
slain tour of his assaiianis, was propped no
or The roadsid and sixty balls fired into
his body. Another was hanged without
trial, and his son compelled TO sill beneath
the gaIlows and witness the agonies OF his
dying father. Two others, unobtrusive quiet
citizens, were called at midnight from their
beds, and in the presence Of their wives and
children brnially shot down, and not con-
tent with this villaIny, their homes were
stripped of everything Even The wearing
apparel was taken from their wives and
liille ones, and they turned naked into the
street. Many equally brutal instances are
related by honest, candid men, whose tes-
timony none would doubt. Such are the
sufferings of a people whose only crime is
a refusal 10 become traitors.
