They know that the Democracy sincere and
uncompromising Unionsts-that they never
will consent to any arrangement of our national
Difficult ties which involves the separation of the
States or any loss of our national territory, and
that they will stand by the men of the South,
who are willing to return to their allegiance to
the old flag. With the abolitionists it is differ

not for the single purpose of restoring the nation

all the leading Republican papers openly and per
sistenty advocated peaceable separation from
all the dissatisfied States, and to-day the Admin
istration organs are opposed to reunion upon any
other basis than the emancipation of slavery by
the rebel States The proclaimed policy of
CHARLES SUMNER and WENDELL PHILLIPS
and all the radicals is subjugation and
emancipation; and, rather than a restoration
of the Union it was, separation Of the free
and slave States. under independent governments.
twill be recollected that Mr.. CONWAY stated
in England that the abolitionists were willing to
recognize the independence of the Southern Con-
federacy upon the single condition that slavery
should be abolished.
No wonder that JEFF. DAVIS organ hates the
party which gives hope and courage to the Union
sentiment that beyond doubt exists in the
South, while that Of the aboIitionists. if there
was no division of sentiment in the North, would
force every man in the Confederate States to

the rebellion would have fallen to pieces. If the
party in power had confined the prosecution of

After the Presidential election in 1860 the edi-
tor OF the Journal was in favor Of letting all the
dissatisfied States go in peace and violently op-
posed civil war or the pinning of the Union
together by bayonets. A change suddenly came
over the spirit Of bis dreams, and why? The edi-
tor aforesaid explains the reason He says the
men who have changed as he did from extreme
anti coercionists to violent coercionists were in
fuenced by sordid considerations or the desire
to make personal capital for future invest
ment" out OF it. AS the Journal man and all
his friends have been very busy making money
out of the war since its Inauguration, and very
careful to keep out Of the way of the enemy 8
bullets, the cause of his ranting for the war
with as much zeal as he rantcd against it, can
be easily appreciated. He stretched his con-
science in that regard with the same facility that
he stretched the public preting while officiating
as State Printer. See Auditors Report of 1861.

The court organ has had great deal to say
lately about the JEFF. DAVIS correspondence
which was recently discovered upon his planta-
ton 10 Mississippi, and it has published several
letters which it says were written by prominent
men years ago to the now rebel President. Sup
pose these letters express the sentiments, which
the Journal charges, or the construction 1t de-
sires TO place upon them, even then they fall far
between the disuDion ayowals Of the leading men
of the party in power and the most prominent
Republican presses OF the country. 1t cannot be
forgotten that movement was set on foot in the
North some twenty FIVE years agote dissolve the
Union-to make slavery and freedom the divid
ing lines, and it was advocated upon the ground
that the constitution was "a league with hell
and covenant with death" in tolerating slavery.
For years petitions were sent from these people
to Congress praying for a dissolution Of the
Union, and those who set on foot this movement
or sympathized with il, are now the leading
spirits of the party in power. These men were
the original secessionists. and to day they would
be as violently opposed to the Union as they ever
have been, if it not for the hope that slavery
may be abolished through the agency of the ter
ribIe civil war, which the Journal said would be
q greater evil than the loss of dozen States
The men who have always been for the preserva
ton of the Union. the central organ of the Re
publican party of Indiana now charges with dis
loyalty;' but those who have ever been disunion-
lists, that print transforms into "loyal' citizens.
What better is Northern dsunionist than a
Southern secessionistf And If to entertain and
proclaim disunion sentiments, is treason, the
leading men Of the Republican party are guilty
of that crime. and the very men too who are
most fierce for the summary punishment Of those
whom they denominate "trsitors-" The remark
that Christ made 70 the crowd who wished to
punish tbe poor woman. win apply with equal
force to these rampant Republicans, "Let him
who is without sin. cast the first stone" If that
rule was adopted. there would be but few execu-
TONERS found in the Republican party.
We propose to give few examples OF the Re
publican dsunionists. and We have the proof al
hsnd without going back later than 1860. In
that year, It win be recolIected, there was Pre-
sidentisI election and the Republican party tri-
