The Necessity of Abiding BY the Com

stluttOns
The Government can net well close its eyes
against the manifest uneasiness felt by the con-
servative and patriotic men of the nation at the
Roadway making of late by fanaticism on the
floor OK Congress and elsewhere; and it will have
to determine, and soon, its position. The great
masses Of the nation are sound, so far rs their
devotion to the Constitution is concerned and
upon them, and upon no little knot of fanatics,
must the President and his Cabinet rely for sup
port through the perils that await them in the flu
ture. If restored Union is indeed the grand
desidsTatum. and not impracticabe schemes of
emancipation and colonization, the best manner
of proceeding is to continue to deal fairly with
the coniding border States-is the strongest ar
gument that can be put forward to convince
those further South That infinite mischief has
been done already by the legislation tolerated at
| Washington if not encouraged there, is most APP
parent And mischief in this case means re
bloodshed, more ruin, more Of alfeyil that eff
| fects common country: because it is of such
legislation that material is furnished for vile men
to still further influence their dupes to their de-
struction. Who can tell, in this connection, the
murderous results Of one act of fanaticism-the
silly and mad s'proclamation" of Gen. Phelps an
officer OF the Government, operating in Louisi-
ana. We hear, indeed, that the Government
frowned upon the criminal folly in that instance;
but what less was that proclamation as calcu

The course is plain. Only strict adherence
to the Constitution can save us; aud upon that
adherence the loyal have right to insist. For
tnnately for ALL there is ambiguity about that
great Instrumental prolixity; and when fanati

Government initiate their example in the loval
States. That the Capital of the nation has been
abused of late by being made the headquarters Of
pestilent faction is to be deplored and that its
influence has already been felt must be acknowl-
edged. But we hope and trust for something bet
ter in the future, because conservative men. on
whom largely rests the fate of the nation. must
have learned the evil OF such condition OF
things. manifested, to a certain degree, in the
outspoken condemnation ELECTED from so many
quarters. We repeat, let us hope for the best.

should be blown 70 thousand disintegrated
atoms and slavery destroyed than that the coun-
Try should be restored to its orr inal condition
under the old Constitution
Such men are earnestly laboring 10 get pos
session of the Government. No means viii be
left untried to accomplish this end. Threats,
deception and chicanery viii not be COO low in the
scale of corruption to escape their notice. This
is that "greater battle for constitutional liberty
in Congress" to which Mr.. Richardson aludes.
He is right in supposing that he is needed there
more than he is in Virginia or in Tennessee.
Hundreds of thousands of brave and patriotic
men there to drive rebellion into the Gulf.
But in Congress-where are the hosts to defend
the Constitution But there are few gallant
hearts that will battle to the last ard if corrup-
ton and fraud shall prevail if sectional fanati-
cism shall rule there and the battle there be lost
to the supporters of the Constitution, then an
appeal to the people will be made by those val
liant and patriotic souls, and the great battle there
must be finally fought.
Prophetically true were the words we have
quoted from Mr.. Richardson, and wise and pat
rio.ic was he forego the honors offered that he
might fight the battles of his country in posi-
ton where he was most needed.-Peoria Union

has been reduced to SO a year, when they can
well afford to pay $780, and laying il heavy on
-four. Think of taxing gas, and taxing pleasure
carriages and fancy horses so lightly as TO be
scarcely any tax at ALL For these and other
equally wise measures the present Congress win
go down 70 posterity with scorn and execratiOn.
The country owes a debt of gratitude to the
Hon. w. A. Richardson, of Illinois, who re-
mains at his seat in Congress, preferring ito fight
the battles OF constitutional liberty" here than to
accept the appointment of Brigadier General ten
dered him by the President. "Old Dick" has
served his country faithfully in the field. His
deeds of gallantry and bravery in Mexico are re-
corded in history But he has harder fight be-
tore him here than he had on the plains OF Gnu
rubasco. He and the gallant few who still cling
to the Constitution as the fathers made il bat
ting almost hopelessly against an unprincpled
and INSCRIPTIONS majority, who hate both, who
repudiate the former, and who are unwilling to
see the latter restored. Indeed, the Union as the
fathers made it can never be restored, unless
Richardson, VDorhees, Cox, Salisbury, CarIile,
Wiley, Harding, Pendleton and the other Demo
cratic members. can succeed in stemming the
tide of fanatcism until the next election for
members of Congress. The prediction may be
safely made that when that event takes place the
people will hurl from their seats their servants
here who have been so unfaIthful, and will fill
their places with men who have been educated to
worship the Constitution.

Care for the NEGRO.

The radical Republicans have an intense con-
sideration for the rights of the negro. They
favor vigorous prosecution of the war if it will
result in the abolition of slavery, but otherwise
they oppose it, They care not for a reconstruc-
ton or restoration of the Union unless thereby
the negro will be placed upon an equality with
the white man. The New York Tribune says:
Were slavery abolished, no State would think
of forbidding negroes to make it their nome"
and boasts that in New York negroes can and do
vote; can hold Office if they get majority Of
votes, and can give testimony in any case what
ever. "In several of the New England States, I"
it says they have all the rights before the Law of
white men," Negro equality, these radicals
think, would be a sure remedy for all the POliti-
cal, moral and social ills of the country.

Riot at CINCINNATI.

Wendell Phillips made decided hit at Gin
cinnati last night-befter than the men who
threw the rotten eggs at him. His is the victory.
Cincinnati is disgraced, and the Cicero of Abo-
htionism" will henceforta draw better audiences
and more earnest and attentive hearers than il
he had been heard unmolested. Yancey, the
traitor, lecturel in Cincinnati less than a year
ago, and was listened to with attention and re-
spect by a large audience. The two facts are
significant Lafayette Journal.
Yancey s '1ecture" at Cincinnati was delivered
during the Presidential canvass OF 1860, instead
Of "less than year ago" as the Journal has IL.
He made speech in favor Of Breckenridge and
Lane. and though unquestionably as much a
traitor at heart then as he is now in practice, he
was petted and caressed bv the newspapers Of the
Journals party, in the hope that bis speeches
would iniure the prospects OF Mr.. Douglas and
enhance those of Mr.. Lncoln.-N. A. Ledger.

The ReerganIzation of the Demo-
cratic Party.

The New York Tribune, representing the rad
ical Republicans. is very much troubled over the
meeting of the Democratic members of Con-
gress. which was also attended by most of tie
members from the Border States. called for the
purpose Of recognizing the Democratic party
The object is certainly patriotic one. and no
Republican should object to it who believes that
the purposes Of the war should be confined 70 the
restoration of the Union il was and that the
Constitution should continue the supreme law of
the land. This is a platform upon which all
patriotic citizens stand AID unite for the pre-
seryation aud perpetuity of the Government
But this result the Tribune and that school Of
politicians do not desire. They fear, and they
SO say, that the Democratic party upon such an
issue will be restored to power-to quote the Ian
guage Of the Tribune, such position will so
direct the prosecution Of the war that il will give
"a military candidate to the Democracy, and a
Democratic President TO the restored Union. y
The sole purpose of the Democratic caucus re-
ferred 70 was to unite the conservative sentiment
of the country N a vigorous and determined
effort TO restore the Bnion and constitutional
liberty.

We understand that the Hon. HENRY S. LANE
and the Hon. G. b. SxnH have written to their
friends in this city that the war will be termi-
mated 10 ten weeks. We hope this prophecy may
prove correct, but when we recollect that secre-
tary sEwARD more than year ago predicted that
our national difficulties would be settled in sixty
days. and the many assurances from high official
authorities that in a very brief period from the
time they were given that the rebellion would be
overcome, that we have but little confidence in
