"Aii for the Union NOw"--.''NO
more Partyv"


ESQ says in the Hillsborough Gazette:
Where is there Democrat in the land
who does not remember with scorn and
contempt the cry raised by the Repub-
licans, after they had succeeded in
bringing the present war upon the
country: ''THERE IS No PARTY Now."
"WE ARE ALL FOR THE UNI
ON" &C.? These words were upon
the lips of every Republican during the
last spring and summer, and the poor
Democrat who dared to even insinuate
that there was PARTYIsM at the bottom
of this hollow~hearted cry, was in dan
ger Of being HANGED AS A TRAITOR, or
condemned to some other cruel death
for promulgating SECESSION DOCTRINE.
We believed then, as we do now, that
all this clamor, noise and confusion was
raised at that particular time for the
sole purpose of enabling that corrupt
party to carry the elections OF the coun-
try, and thus perpetuate its power as
long as possible. This was their object,
and they succeeded well in carrying it
out; but since that time the "sober se-
cond thought" has taken place; thepeo-
pie have calmly considered the subject;
they have scanned the MOTIVES and the
PATRIOTISM of these loud>mouthed bab-
blers and delectable demagogues; they
have become convinced that their pre-
tended patriotism was nothing but love
of power and official station, and come
to the sensible conclusion that such a
party is totally unworthy of public con-
idence, and that they will no longer
give heed to its clamors, its protesta-
tons or its pledges. l
We have no words of commentator
for those PROCESSING Democrats who
were weak or silly enough to be GULLED
INTO THE MEsHEs OF THE REPUBLICAN
NET by the cry of Union. Such men
as were thus caught have only "sold
their birth-rights for mess ofpottage,"
and got bad bargain at that. They
have lent themselves tc their worst en-
emies for the worst of purposes, and we
have no hope that any good will come
of them in future; for it is well known
fact that this notorious Republican par
ty, the leaders of which, six months a.
60, were, apparently, so rampant for
blending all parties into one--who were
80 blatant in proclaiming that there
were no longer any Republicans, or
Democrats, or Wings, or Americans,
or any other partisans, but that all
we're compelled to be either GOOD UNI
ON MEN OR TRAIToRs-have from that
day to this, been doing everything in
their power to perpetuate the existence
of that party, and to CRUSH OUT, if
possible, the Democratic and every
other party. @

They hold then county and State

no pains to herald the news. abroad
that the REPUBLICAN PARTY (not the
Union parity has put this man or that
in nomination. They have now USED
the Democrats who were SO unguarded
as to permit the enemy to entrap them;
and well knowing that their perfidy and
treachery can avail them nothing here
after, the poor fellows will be either
compelled toremain in the Republican
ranks, or return to the Democracy, and
be content to take back seats in the
synagogue for some years to come. We
knowAnot which to pity most--the era
ven-hearted hypocricy Of that class Of
men who indulged in the practice of de-
nouncing Democrats as disunionists, re-
bells, traitors, &C., and in, crying out on
all occasions, 'No MORE PARTY NOW"

oRs!o ---or those Democrats, who, thro
fear or interested motives, suddenly be-
come WEAK IN THE KNEES and tumbled
into the Abolition NET. No good can
possibly result to the country from the
blending together two elements SO dis
cordant in their nature; and even were
it possible to blend them, their united
efforts could never save the country
from that ruin and desolation which
the Republican element has brought

The masses Of the Democrats were
probably honest in believing that some
good would result from union with
their worst enemies; but these should
have recollected the past. They should
have remembered the Presidential cam
paign of 1S4O, when that notable pro-,
mise Of sstwo dollars day and roast
beef, was made BY the party then ar
rayed against the Democracy; they
