their ty will be transferred to the name
of a party after It's s0ug is gone. Another
danger is that loyal men may remain quiet,
and allow the ener1ss of The Constitution
to ultimately triumph. NY advice, how
ever, would be not TO let your indignation
againsFdisloy alists run into mos rule. Let
these men live on But canit see what
they promise to do. What do they live
here for, despised of all loyal men, and
hating the government that protects them
They are not of us-let them 60.
Let those who are, for establishing the
authority Of the Constitution, whatever
aheir differences are about party matters,
then unite on the grand cardinal doctrine
of MISUNDERSTANDING their differences to be
settled under 1t peaceably when its author
iIy is restored.
THE FIGHTING ORGANIZATION.
For a Sighting organization to express
this principle we have the army--ail men
who are for establishing the authority Of
the Constitution, can 60 there without re-
gard to polities-aRd they are thsre-re-
publican side by side with democrat-abo-
olitionists with pro-slavery men. IL is The
conditional Union man, the man who can
not go into that army without prescribing
policy to the government that is unsound.
Conditional allegiance is fungus growth
of our Tree government. There are some
duties we owe our government; and thase
are not conditional.
How many would have gone into the
army if they had 6rst stopped to exact con-
ditions of Mr.. Lincoln Such action would
before this have made JEFF. Davis either a
King or an Emperor. The soldiers in the
field take practical view of this matter.
They make no demsRd that the Executive
shall have precis pe.icy to govern the
country. They only know that flag black
with treason and red with blood is attempt.
ed TO be substituted for their beloved Stars
aud Stripes, and that no such nation as that
of jeff. Davis's is known to the world
They know that JEFF. Davis is clear outside
of the Constitution of the United States.
All who were lighting against him were
clearly within the pale Of the Constitution.
Some of these are dead, some sick, some are
prisoners, some are buried and some are
uuburied. While the bones of the brave
soldiers lie bleaching upon the baltIe.6elds
of the country, it is the duty of those who
stay behind TO honor them, TO encourage
and unite the people upon a common idea
of 6delity to the Constitution. They should
cultivate loyal sentiment. Let the preach
ers pray. Let the children sing songs.
Let the women make bandages, and provide
comforts for The soldiers. Let as have two
fsS days TO Jei DHVis's one.
Have the men of the sth Of january Con-
vention any sympathy with our soldiers
| doubt il. They could wind up d long
platiOrm with meaningless resolution
The soldiers who were falling In the cause
OF the Union should have every patriots
tear.
How sleep the brave who sink 70 rest
By ail-thsfr country . wishes blsst,,
When spring Aitli dlwy hnFeta soid,
Returns 20 deek their hallesel mould,
mad they the good iwishes Of secret
secessionists, of men who wish to withdraW
their allegiance from their government be-

RESTORATION OF PARTIES.
No matter what dlfFe euces existed be-
tween parties we must fght for establishing
the authority of the Government through
out the Union. Let Us do this irst, then
we. can restore old party organizations IL
they be necessary. ! viii do the Republic
cans the justice to say that they do not COW
WISH to restore their old party. Ia Ohio
they have united with .oyaI men Of other
parties, aud nominated Ddvid Tod iife-
long Democrat, and elected him Governor.
In New York, Daniel s. Dickinson, we'll
known Democrat, has been placed on the
Union ticket and elected Attorney General.
Mr.. Lincoln, in making appointments. has
selected eighty Democrats out of one hum
dred and thirty Brgadier Generals. Sec
retary Stanton bad beet Mr.. Buchanans
Attorney General. Could ths Breckinridge
party be restored think It would be q hard
matter 10 bold Convention of that party
now, as most of its adherents are Ia the
rebel army, and Mr. Breckinridge would
hardly be able, just now, TO attend It in per-
son. The Bell and Everett party couldn't
be re-organized. Everett might 60 down
and meet Bell, and shake hands with him
across the lines but no good would come Of
that. None OF these organizations will do.
We must take a new one. This should enc
brace all but the men of Conditional loyalty.
They are outside. We want an BHeondi-
ticnaI loyal, Union party.
