Quite Change.

A few years since in the blindness
of bigotry, the leaders of New England
cried, "put none but Americans on
guard to>night," and disarmed the
Irish and German military companies
as dangerous to American liberty.
Now they have not only glad to have
Irish and German assistance, but in a
spirit as blind as their former bigotry
was narrow, they cry out t-''allis lost,
NIGGERs to the rescue!'' THEN they
were defiant, intolerant and exclusive:
Now, they are fearful, liberal and
gcneral-so much so, that they cry
out, ''to preserve our liberties, to save
our country, put SAMBo on guard to.

Judge Douglass Last Words.

buUSc DOWStstS > Last WORDS.
The organs and orators of the Abo-
lition Disunion party, are in the habit
of parading an extract Or two from
the last speeches of Judge Douglas
(whom they now term "lamented"
Douglass and misapplying them en-
tirely and thus grossly misrepresenting
their author. When Judge Douglas
passed west from Washington, and
spoke in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois,
President Lincoln had just called for
seventy-fve thousand men under his
first proclamation, and to be used for
the objects and purposes therein mas
med. The object of Judge Douglas 5
speeches, at that time, was to prompt
ly rally the people in response to that
call, stimulated by the Impression
which he had that Washington was in
danger. In the very same speeches,
however, from which the paragraphs
which the bogus Union party quote,
Judge Douglas declared emphatically
that he would not make war himself
nor would he encourage or tolerate it
in others, on the institutions of any of
the Southern States; his sole object
and purpose being to aid the President
to put down the rebellion and enforce
the Federal authority. Every one
who heard Judge Douglas speak, will
remember how particular he was to
disclaim any intention to make war
upon any State or the institutions
thereof. The man must be fool who
believes that Judge Douglas, if living,
would have tolerated or sanctioned the
infamous legislation Of the late session
of Congress. lie would have been
the leader in the Senate in denouncing
it all, and would now be found rally
ing his countrGmen to unite on the old
Democratic platform as the only hope
of preserving the Union States

The Pressure om the President.

IL am pressed with a difficulty"
said President Lincoln, in his appeal
to the Representatives from the Bor-
der States, andand again said he, ''thc
pressure is this direction is still upon
me and is Increasing"
Everybody knows what this pres
sure is. 1t is the demand of the Re
publican Radicals Or Abolitionists that
their partisan sectional schemes shall
be carried out in the conduct of the
war.
The President thinks the country
cannot afford to lose the support Of
those who press this demand upon
him. 1t may, however, be questioned
whether the country would suffer much
by such loss; for these men have
meyer given its cause their hearty sup
port, if that cause be identical with
tho maintainance of the Government
established by our fathers.

A Counle Of Good Shots.

The editor of the Louisville Demo
crat hits the mark exactly in the fol,
lowing paragraph. All must admit
that they are shots that 60 through
the center of the target. The Demo
crat says:
"The Abolition sheets are enough to make
a loyal white man blush. The white men
are failure in the contest. Three can't
whip one; but Sambo is coming, and when
he gets into the ring exploits will be done.
The rebels will just will just wilt down at
once. The fools are not all dead yet, and the
fool killer is not about" lgt
Again it says:
"The rebel sheets ofthe North tell us that
Jim Lane is authorized to raise troops In
Kansas, and they guess that Jim will enlist
negroes as well as white men. Jim Lane
would suit we'll to command regiment o.
darkies, and they would suit such q com.

persistent fault>fnding of the Radi-
Gals with the President and our Gen
erals in the field, often breaking out
in open and bitter denunciations, it is
enough to know that they have not
only strengthened the hands of the
rebels, but seem determined, as many
of them do not hesitate to declare, that
the Southern Confederacy shall suc-
ceed, unless the war is prosecuted for
the abolition of slavery, Or so conduc-
ted as to lead inevitably to that result.
"The pressure is increasing" These
were prophetic words. Since they
were uttered, the President has issued
his Executive Order under the late
Confscation act. The Order did not
quite come up to the Radical-Republi>
can>Abolition standard. Immediately
the pressure upon him and the country
is increased thousand fold. The
most strenuous and unrelenting efforts
are made to diminish, in fact, to de-
stroy the confidence of loyal people
in the President and in our commands
ing Generals. ..# r. .'s 's''
Well did the President say that this
pressure upon him was increasing. It
is increasing in tremendous ratio,
and will not be satisfied until it has eff
fected the destruction or dismember>
ment of the Union. The only relief
for the President and the only safety
for the country is to shake off at once
and forever this fearful nightmare =
Unless this is done, it will continue to
press upon the heart of the nation un-
til it has effected its fell purpose Of
destruction or disunion.-- Statesman.
