1.-THE sCHEME DON'T WORK"
San attempt has been made to get up q -ocsled
Union pariy' In New York but 1t seems that the plan
don't work. The Albany Journal complains that while
the Republican pres Is lond III praise Of the movement l,
does no, see favorable wordfrom Democratic paper
This is good sisn"
We clip the above from the last Gazette.
The Editor thinks "the attempt to get up
Unios party in New York won't work."
The Republican press, it appears aloud In
praise Of the movement, but it does not re-
ceNe "a favorable word from a Democratic
paper" The Editor also says. with chuck.
le, that this Is good sign" Wo have no
doubt the Editors friends in the Rebel
Army also regard it as "a good sign" Any
movement for the Union, according to the
Gazette, is for the benefit Of the Republican
party, and, it is fair to presume, is disastrous
TO the Democratic party.
But our Christian friend, an usual, don't
tell the truth, when he leads the public to
believe that all the Democrats Of New York
are opposed to the Union movement Dan
lei s. Dickinson has thrown his whole soul
into the movement. 30 has Lyman Ire
maine, who refused last year to accept the
nomination for Attorney General, after he
was placed on the Vallandigham. Democrat
ic ticket. So has George Bancroft, who
has somewhat Of reputation Is statesman
and man Of letters, and whom President
Polk thought good good enough Democrat
to represent this country at the Court Of st.
James. A great number ofthe Union Dem
ocratic members Of the New York Legisla-
ture, also, have signed an address, in con-
nection with the Republican members, COM
mending the patriotism and ability of Presi-
dent Lincoln and his Cabinet, and in favor
Of doing away with party lines and uniting
| for the country until the war is prosecuted
to a successful termination. Stephen and
his little clique Of rebel sympathisers, we
presume, regard this as bad "siga." j.
d d. and the balance Of the ragged rebels IL
the South, we have no doubt, also regard i
as a bad sign. -
Stephen, what oontsmptible figure yo'

great Douglas led you. When the first rud
blast of war swept mp from Sumter he hur

Dental mansion, and, telling the Presidsn
the Democracy of the North would stand b
him, bade him prosecute the war all tn
power Of the nation. He went again to tn
Senate, and before the people, and launch
ed his thunderbolts on the heads Of the ret
els with terrible fury. Let us call to you
