/ SHAN Observation-Disclosures efforts are
being made in this State by Republicans
and disaifectcd Democrats, who have for.
feited, by their trickery and trucking to
the Administration, the confidence and
respect of their own party, to organize a
new " Union party" The Union, Bee
and other Abolition organs, rejoiced ex-
ceedingly at the organization of such a
party recently in New York, and held it
up as one worthy Of imitation in Califor-
mia. Daniel S. Dickinson ought to be
good authority with the Union and Bee,
and he exposes the duplicity of the lead
erS of the new Union movement. lie
was invited to all the new party, and
wrote an address for the Unionists to sign.
The address was printed and highly
praised by his no party friends, but they
concluded not to adopt it. Its Union
sentiments were unobjectionable, but it
contained several sentences hattering to
the Democratic party, which the Union
lists could not swallow. The reason for
its rejection and the character of the one
they did adopt, are thus briefly described
by Mr.. Dickinson in letter to the Albany
Journal:

begged me most persistently To pen this brief

THIS DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARTIEs.-
Says an able Democratic writer-let this
important fact be borne in mind in all
directions between Democrats and their
opponents. The Democratic party is
oval TO the Constitution and will defend
it from every asSailant; the Republican
party will defend it only from the assaults
oil one class Of its enemies. The Demo
cratic party respects and conforms to all
the restraints aud obligations Of the Con-
stitution; the Republican party conforms
to aud will respect only such of its re-
straints and obligations as it is its will
and interest to respect. These are the
distinguished characteristic traits of these
two parties, one respecting the COnstitA
ton as the supreme law; the other treat
ing it as nullity when it suited its party
purpose. Reader, which of these parties
is it safe to trust in the administration Of
Government-th one that adheres TO and
sacredly observes the Constitution OF
the one that dsregards and snbverts it!
SPEAKING TO THE PrRPosE.-Is not the
following language reasonable land il
it had been uttered by Democratic Sen.
ator, would not Sumner or Wade or some
other fanatic moved to expel him? Gar.
rett Davis of Kentucky, in a speech in
the Senate few days ago, Oh Trumbull'>

THAT while he did not wish to make threat
he would say that II the contiscation bill passed

regard to sex, would so resist it with every
means in their power as to neutralize its effects

publican Senators To adhere To their pledge
during the last session in the passage Of u RESP.
luton against any interference with slavery in
the States"

THE PEvIlGE> OF THE s.-We
find the following in the late proceedings
Of the mtvl States Senate
Mr.. Garlic rrc~utrd petitions in favor e
allowing Democrats payers The same privileges
in the mails as Rrpubiicau papers.
The Cincinnati E"qvirer thus com.
mcnts on the above: Mr.. Garlic is the
old line Wing aud Union Senator from
Virginia. 1t certainly seems reasonable
that Democratic papers should be allowed
the same privileges in the mails as Re-
publican, unless the mails are carried for
the especial benefit Of Republicans. We
used TO suppose that the Fostoilicc De.
partment was public institution, OF
which all, without regard to party, sect,
color or condition, could avail themselves,
provided they paid the charges upon their
letters and papers. If it is to be used for
the benefit Of one party or sect, the soon
er it is abolished the better Ba>tles
seem TO be made for innocent victims,
and not for the scoundrels who have
swindled the Government"
"The Union is gone; it cannot be re-
stored" This is the raven croak of
Carl Shurz, an incendiary Abolitionist.
1t is a sufficient reason for calling him
from his foreign embassy, but why, asks
some one, make him Brigadicr? If he
will not fight to restore the Union, why
place him at the head Of Union armies !?
Why not remove him, and give his place
to loyal General, who believes the Union
can be restored?

.ABoLITIoNISTS.- Thirty-threc years
ago, in his place in the United States
Senate, Henry Clay portrayed, as with
the touch Of a maStcr-limner, the Aboli-
ZIONIST Of that day. He admonishcd the
people TO beware of their sentiments and
designs. Then they&erc an insignificant
tactSeH, ~;{tssS~t power or intluence, feeble
in Congress, still fecbler with the people !;
now they are powerful party, but I'M
changed in feature, motive OF purpose,
and control both Congress and the Ad-
miniStration. Said Mr.. Clay:
With them the rights of property are no.
thing; the deficiency of the power Of the Gen
eral Government Is nothing; the acknowledged
aud mcn"tesiIble powers of the States are mo-
thing; evil war, dissolution Of the Union, and
the overthrow of a Government in which are
concentrated the tOndeSt hopes of the civilized
world, are nothing. \ single idea has taken
possession of their minds, and onward they
pursue it, overlooking all business, reckless
and regardless Of consequences.
~S~-
NATURAL.-A late dispatch from Wash
lnBtOn, says:
The soldiers here complain of the Partially
shown cuntrabands," who are quartered in
Duff Green's row, fnrmerly the residence of
Webster and Everett, while the white men,
who came here to fight for their country, are
quartered in cheap and Uncomfortable barracks.
The soldiers who are fighting to pre-
serve the Government as our fathers made
it, are beginning to realize the fact that
they are not considered equal to negroes.
1t used to be said that "a white man is
as good as niger, if he behaves as well )"
but this is true no longer. The Summers
and Wades and Trumbuls have no sym
pathy for unfortunate men of their own
color, and have recommended and re-
joiced over their imprisonment without
cause, but let a negro be arrested. for
stealing away from his master and they
will rush to his rescue and call upon the
army and navy to support them in setting
the laws at defiance.

INCIDENTS OF THE WAR-Somo years

which Is just as applicable to our own sol
diers IN the South.
Let me give YOU bit of advice, that Is,

think much about advice from old men
They put their tongue in their cheek. and
think that they know good deal better
than the Oh cove that Is giving them ad-
vice. But let me tell you that you are
como 20 a country where, If you drink
you are dead man. If You are sober and
steady you II get on we'll but If you drink
you are done for. \ on will either be in
valid or die. | know tvs regiments in

all destroyed. | know there are some men
who will drink in spite of their officers.
but such men will soon be intthe hospital
and very Few in this country that 20 in ev-
eE come out again
