Union League.

The union force Of the North, if united,
is strong enough to crush every traitor in
the country but unfortunately the Union"
lists arc, but imperlecuy united. The trai
tors, a. the North are PERFECTLY united, and
in perfect confidence Of the traitors Of the
South. Therefore a few traitors in the North
are abe to do a vas! amount Of mischief
Unionists ere not confined to any particu
lar party, therefore the bonds Of party are
not sufficient to bind them in perfect union:
What is wantc'l is perfect union Of al the
loyal men in the country; not, perhaps, in
the :orm Of political pn'Iy, but with the
single object Of preserving the Union
Such Union, We rejoice to know is being
effected. The Union league, started lately
= in New. York City, under the auspieccs Of
such men as Gen. Scott, Mayor Opdyke,
: James r. Brady, and John Van Buren,
seems to us to lie the very thing that is
needed. Into it men Of every party, name
race, and creed, who loves the Union may
!. come, and work and labor in systematic
way for the accomplishment Of the object
of. their ambition, the Union. 1t was a
glorious day for the nation when the old
Democratic party was led out from the
thraldom Of that arch traitor, Valandigham
into the pure light Of the liberty Of the con
stitulion, by Governor Seymour, and his
co-workcrs, Van Buren, Brady and Shcchan
Of the Chicago Post, and left the few trait
orous Copperhead*, who had e"deavor"d
TO give popularity to their treason under tho
name Of Democracy, staining out alone il
their own true position, in the eyes Of al
the world traitors to the government an(
mankind, 1t will be still more glorious
day when the Union men of the country
are united in perfect union. and trcaso,
made to stink away in shame.
Onion leagues are being organized all owe
the country. and we heartily Recommend it
or anything else that vii! unite the loya
people.

wherever it has been on duty, has been handled
with skill second to none. Ii did not actively
participate 10 the late battle Of Cbancelorsv e.
the FIRST and Fifth corps having been held as
reserves. The confidence Of all the corps com.
manders and of all tie officers Of the army in
Gen. MEADE is very high; and we may now
state that after the late battle Of Charlottesville
his appointment TO supersede Gen. HOOKER was
urged by every corps commander, With, perhaps
one exception. There is no doubt be will be 10y
ally and warmly supported by the officers Of the
army, as he was certainly The one whom they des-
gnated as their choice. The officer next in rank
10 Gen. HOOKER was himself desirous that Gen.
MEADE should be bis chief. His Intellectual

with, OF course all the other soIdierly quali6ca-
