: THE WHITE FEATHER.

Thsre are some politicians among US, who
have weakly endeavored, during the crisis Of
our nations history through which we are
now passing, to play on both sides Of the con-
stitut;onal struggle which is to-day teaching
ps the realization of those times which ''try
mems souls.o These men, for selfish pur-
poses, lend their individual influence to build
up the political chaos into which the nation
81 drifting. They are lukewarm only,-plilk
and water, on the great Jack sonian principle
Of preserving the Union at all hazards.
A few hours since we heard staunch dem
ocrat declare that he had rather all the negroes
in Christendom were enslaved, than the
ripsnsd glories of our American Union should
DO wrecked upon this NEST abominable rock
Of aboltioniem. Better indeed the pristine
glory of our country, better for III, and for
those who are to come after us, the 'sUniOn
~ It mas" than this scene, which alas. we
xsog yealizs Of .the broken and dishonored
fragments Of . once glorious Union"! Let
saeh men ask Themselves tho question, upon
what lsaais can tho ftatsrnai war determine
the future ofoar oountsy? Can fratricidal
strife ond IN fraternal love Can either side
conquer reae. that shalt garland our Union

It's a fact not generally known that at the
convention which nominated VIM B. Allison
for Congress, every speech made except one
by Reuben Noble Esq of AlcGregor character
lied every man belonging to the democratic
party as traitor to his country!
It is q fact that the nominee of tina. body
endorsed that infame us falsehood in shor.
but pointed speech. 1t is part of the poll
cy of the republican party to compel the dem
ocrats to abandon their political organization.
and all those refusing to do so will in time be
incarcerated in some political dungeon, un-
less republicanism is buried beneath a snow
storm of conservative ballots this fall The
programme is to arrest and imprison the
leaders of the democratic psrty first, after
which all others persisting in their adherence
70 it's time, honored principles will become the
sictims of its wrath.
For period of three. fourths of century
iris Government has been administered, if
not entirely by the democratic party, GER
tainly in direct antagonism to ell the teach
'ogs ofrepublicanism, ard during that entire
,,eriod we were free from Internal commotion
as peoplc.-and prosperous individually and
nationally beyond all precedent in the his.
tory of nations. The revolution caused by a
single triumph oF principles in contravention
Of our entire policy as nation, we need not
allude to it displays TO the American people
to-day its record of blood.
It is further fact that at the convention
nominating Mr.. Allison, the ball was opened
nv singing the cold John Brswn Song" to
which di-graceful proceedings not a single
delegate objected that tried convicted, con-
demned. and executed traitor to his country
was lauded to tie skies, while such men as
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, and Jack
son had no word Of commendation from them
What an exalted idea of patriotism such men
have men who will pass by with scorn and
contempt the patriot heroes-the statesmen
and the philanthropists whose teaching and
example, followed by the American people
have made ours one of the first nations of the
earth, and make him their patron-saint who
violated the laws Of the land and inaugurated
events that before they close will delugo it
in bleoa, carrying the grim visage of war to
che bosom Of every family in the land.
