Ry- The following article from the
Mobile Register suits us exactly. 1t
anticipates an article zoe intended to
write, and we therefore accept it:
The Northwest Again.
Prince Johns significant speech is
worth dwelling upon. John Van
Buren occupies peculiar position in
the State Of new York. 10 ali APP
posrances u way and joker, tuII Of
smart sayings, and with few convic'
lions, he is really an earnest and
serious man, of large intellect and
deop thought. He is the Mophiutop,
hlies of the great party which has
lately taken the reins OF power i'll his
State, and may be regarded as essen
TALLY the representative man of )t9
ideas Ond policy. 1t was he who first
nominated and elected Seymour Gov.
ernor. 1t was he who drew from
(ioncral Scott the "Wayward Sisters y
lettor. 1t was he who moulded and
developed the programme on which
his party succeeded in New I0r!<.-
lIoncc, his opinions at this jnnctare
aro entitled to grave and serious con.
tidoration.
What do they indicate? Obviously
that Tho power he represents has
sounded halt, and is about to take q
fresh departure on new line ot poll.
.cy The movements in the North
,west, evidently looking to revolution
and alliance, have alarmed the Il 'o"tIes
ef neace in the Middle and New hug-
lantStates, and visions ofa reconstrUt'
ed Confedcracy, On 'hc basis OF Their
exclusion from membership, haunt
their imagination and iGcitc them to
reycIso their programme We may
now count on the active cxertlons OF
the Democracy OF the Middle and New
ENGLAND States in aid of the war, and
confidently expect them to use their
. utmost endeavors to discourage and
demoralize the mighty revolutionary
movement actively progressing IN the
Northwest.
Now what shall we do in the mean
time, while this wave of revolution is
surgng mountain high in the North
west, encountering the power Of the
Lincoln government-the Black Re
publican party at home and the united
feeling Of tho Middle and New England
States? Shall we of the South, in
whose interest this struggle is made
be mere listless spectators OF tho con
test D. sOr,shall we lend aid and com
fort TO the men who arc fighting our
battles on their own soil ! Shall we
saw to these people who are making
tb;sreyolution in the Northwest, you
..may, make it, but You can never again
touch the hem OF our garment; you
mayioyerthrow Puritan supremacy IN
vonr midst and adopt our form OF gov
ernmsnt, if you will, and still we can
have no relations with yon, except aa
a foreign power, with which we hav'
been Of late at war? Or shall we, on
tbe other hand, bid the men engaged
IN this good work God speed? Teil
them to 20 on and exercise tn demon
from thor midst; to found their Gov
ernmsnt,; to- demand an armistice to
appoint their Commissioners that we
will meet them half way at every
stage of their movement? Which Is
true statesmanship--which OF the two
plans is sound national policy. .A Y
