THE POLITICAL UPRISING AT THE NORTH.
The Albany IN. Y.) Argus. {Demoerstic) in an
article the approaching elections al the North,
says the Middle States will insist upon resuming
lie power they once held and which has been filek
ell from them by New England. 1t says:
II is in vain ihat tie voice Of the press, OF pub.
lie meetings. OF orma! depu,ations, is heard impo-
ring the President 10 give efficiency to his admins.
trafion The instruction CT tho people is needed
aud that must Ire given at the ballot box. We hay r
reached that stage of political crisis wherein nur
position resembles that Of the British Parliament,
when q reVoiut on OF political opinion dictsies II
change OF ministry and modification OF govern
mental policy.
Instead OF a policy vague yscillatlng, and de.
siruetive, we want one which shall be intelligent,
.resolute and effective. The restoration Of Demo
cratic Influences in The North would have the don-
bie effect OF consolidating military strength and
ihe force OF our political position, and of dividing
the South.
