Ifany one is in the slightest uncertainty
as to who these factionists are, let him but
look back one year when the whole loyal
North was united aud men of all parties
Joined in common canse against the com

ton to the present time, note who have
been active in getting up this third party

ing peOele against everything but the reb-
els, the cause of all their woes.
How far the results of the late elections
are to be taken as the legitimate couse-
quencc of these villaiuies, it is difficult to
tell. Nor can it be said how far the peo-
pie of Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania uu-
derstOOd what would be the effect of their
action, or what the great body of them
meant it to be. What the leaders of the
new aedged party meant it TO be is not a
matter of doubt. Nor are VIC left in unccr.

the Government to do so will be taken from

power we have been elected to and then
it shall be easier travelling for you-then
some how or other the war shall stop, and
you shall be 'let alone, j" if not on our terms,
then on your own" Will the South then
be satisfied with being let alone? If its
friends get into power, that may become
grave question. Never were peo-
pie worse deceived than those who voted
for anti-war men ucder the belief that their
election would shorten the war. The Sc.

long stride towards power. That it has
done, as we have repeatedly shown, with

West VIRGINIA.--It is objected to the propo
sition that this new State, as prerequisite 10
admission into the Union, shall incorporate In
its constitution . certain provision in respect
to slavery, that It contravenes the principle that
new States must be admitted upon the same
footing o. the old ones, and must have the
same degree Of power over local and domestic
Affairs.
This objection would be valid to PROPOSE
ton to compel State to 20 bind its future
action in local and domestic Affairs as 70 place
It upon different footing from the old States
in that respect.
But The adoption by State of provision
10 its own constitution, which may be changed
at its pleasure, does not impair It's sover-
eighty.
West Virginia, with provision in It's con.
stitution that slavery shall not exist will be a.
sovereign a. Maryland or Missouri, whose con
stitutons forbid legislative interference with
slavery. -'i
We do not believe that Congress can compel
West Virginia to bind itself To prohibit slavery
during all time to come; but Congress car
compel West Virginia to abolish It by her frst
constitution. This Is, to be sure, practically
the same thing, because slavery, once abolished
will never be re, established. But. in a consti
tutional point of view, 1t is a very differen
thing.
