Union Papers W.. SyTupnthizfng
Papers.

We have now before us three newspapers,
published in the cities of Nashville, Tennes-
see Ncwbern, North Carolina, and Norfolk,
Virginia, and called, respectively, the Nash
Vile Union the Ncwbcrn Progress, and the
Norfolk Uuion. They are printed in commu-
mites filed with the Secession element, and
which may at any time revert to the control
of the traitors Their editors hold their lives
in their hands, and write with the consious-
ness that their lives may be forfeited in the
event of the defeat of the national cause
and yet, in the midst of pcrils like these
pcrils present and perils prospective, these
fearless journalists not only dCnOuncn SccCH-
sion in the bittcrest and most defiant manner
but sustain the Government with zeal ability,
and entire confidence in the Executive. We
read in the columns of their intrepid news
papers no complaints of the Administration,
no attempts to falsiiy the position of the
Republicans, and no expressions ofsympathy
with the enemies of the Republic. On the
| contrary, some OF the most indignant invcC'
! tivCs against the sympathiZcrS with treason
in the Free and the Border States regularly
! appear in their editorials. Now, let our
! readers take up any three of the Brcckin
ridge or rSo-called Democratic papers in Penn
| sylvania, and they will behold contrast well
calculated to excite their indignation and
preiudces and talschoods of the grosscst
character constitute the staple of their con
tents. One opposes the draft, another de
clarcS that this is IN abolition war, another,
the Republicans arc responsible for 1t, while
nearly all concur in the most insidious efforts
to excite riots, between the negroes and
the laboring classes Of our great cities
The editors Of these papers are living
peacefully and happily under our benigr
Government. Many of them have acquire
a competency under its protection. They
see this Government involved in alifo-and
death struggle and yet they occupy them
selves in trying to divide the people, t.
fettcr the Federal Administration, to dis
courage recruiting, and to force n 6ishonora
bic peace. 4 contrast like this should go /,
the heart of every true American, and shoulC
rouse our whole people against the men who
see their country bleeding at every pore
and feel no pity for her and no hatred for he
enemies PbRa3c1phio Press.
