vestige of conditional maintenance Of the
Government on the part Of those who would
either protect or exterminate Slavery
With the President, We are unconditionally
for the Union-new, hencsforth, snd for
ever. His paramount object" as he HIM
self declares, is to SAVE THE UNION.

II that institution. stands in the way of q
restoration of the Union, it will meet with
the same fate that any other impeachment
would meet Whit would be swept from
the land, by clear and undoubted exercise
of the military power Of the country. That
hour has not yet arrived, and all the at
tempts of the Greeleys. and Julians, at die.
tating the War policy of the Government
will not hasten it the smallest imaginable
part OF second of time. The coat of the
great protector. Cromwell. does not fit
Greeley's round shoulders; neither does the
breeches Of the great emancipation, WILDER
force, fit the pedal extremities Of "hon. Geo.
w. Julian"
During the continuance of this internal
war. We shall not recognize "party" under
any OF the past political organizations; add
the man, who will not sink the partizan in
the patriot, in a time like the present, ough,
not to receive the support of any honest
man for any Office to which he may aspire.
A man who will no,o say that he still stands
by the flag Of the Republican party. or the
flag Of the Democratic party, should not be
trusted with Office, where he would have
any influence in determining the only po-
litical question at this time before country
the permanency or dissolution Of this glo-
rious Union. If his party SO determined, be
would sacrifice to its behests his country S
best and dearest interest-the restoration OF
the Union. Such political hacks as Valan-
bingham and Voorhees,, Julian and Wendell
Phillips. who sustain the Government with
an ''if''-the former. if Slavery shall be
protected, and the latter, If it shall be abol-
ished, are throwing what influence they
have towards recognition of the independ-
ence of the Seeded States, deny it as they
may.
Hon Geo w. Julian" is now a candi-
date for reelection TO Congress. Those
who vote for him, will endorse his vile abuse
of the President. They will endorse his
views, which had they prevailed in the
councils Of the nation, could not have re-
suited otherwise than 10 disaster to the
Union cause. by estranging and alternating
those who to-day are fighting and Offering
up their lives as willing sacrifice, that the
Union might live and flourish as of yore.
They will endorse a policy which had be
succeeded in inau2urating, would have
saturated the soil Of Indiana with blood, and
laid waste and desolate her fair fields They
will say to him by voting for him. that he
was right in proposing to violate his oath to
support the Constitution of the United
the crime of perjury--in
order that the evil of Slavery might be
abolished in the States where it exists. Can
good and conscientious men thus endorse
him. and thus give him aid and comfort?
Can they give him their support, and not
by SO doing subscribe to the doctrine. as one
OF the prime articles of their faith, that it is
RIGHT to "do emil that good may come ofus"
When Hon. Joshua R. Giddings. was in
just previous to the Presidential
election. he observed to Mr.. Holloway that
'Geo. w. Julian was the most impractical
BILE man he ever became acquainted with
He knew him long and well, and. as CO.
aborer in the Anti Slavery movement, his
testimony ought to be deemed valid. His
'impracticable'' nature has been fully
shown. during both the extra and last ses-
sions Of Congress. At the extra session,
his impracticability was shown in his voting
against the proposition that this war was
waged for "the supremacy of the Constitu-
ton and to preserve the Union" and not 10
interfere with the "rights of the several
States" &C.. and that when this was &C.
the war ought to cease. His
reason for this vote was because it interfered
with the only idea that ever found lodg-
ment in his brain, and which he has foster
ID, digged about, and otherwise cultivated,
until it occupies all the room. and permeates
md pervades all the nerves of his body and
issues of his blood the total eradication,
~ act Of Congress. of Slavery throughout
he land. He could nat vote for the propo !
'irion, because he wanted to interfere with !
he rights" guaranteed by the Constitution.
o the loyal people OF the Slave holding
States. Such an 'impraclicable" man, we

md We are prepared to support al uacondi-
