To the Editor Of The AAeghaniam:
On Saturday evening, 2sth inst, the Breck-
inridge Democracy of this section met at the
school house, at No. 4, Washington township,
for the purpose of cornseling together to
the Manifold troubles that now afflict the
nation, and to compare views on the abomi-
nablc Conscription Bill, &c. -
After the requisite number of <sers had
been appointed, aI. VI. Adams (the man who
wanted to be Senator. but couldn't make the
landing) was called upon TO relieve himself
of speech. This he did in his usual style
he made a number of heartrenting charges
against the Administration, which didn't
amount 10 anything, and wound up by aver
ring that he was willing to fight for the Union
in case the President would only recall that
horrid Emancipation Proclamation of his, and
Congress Aepeal the Conscription Act. The
President should be advised of this decision
of Mr. Ait might exercise most potent
influence on the future desti'.ies of the Re-
public
Next appeared on the carpet Professor Mac,
who is not so great man in dimensions as
his predecessor, but infinitely larger upon the
question of politics-at least in pretensions.
He was opposed to pretty much everything
Aboltionsts, Emancipationists, Conscrip-
tionists and Republicans. He satisfactorily
demonstrated that he was loyal man, with
sound Union principles by reason that some
ten or twelve years ago, when in the whisky
selling business, he reared sign, on which
was inscribed
UNION
in glaring capitals. Couldn't see it In that

The political aspect ofthc present strug-
gle is instructive and suggestive. When
the rebellion first assumed the aspect Of
war the political parties of the country
were divided accor ding to their traditions
and doctrines. The Republican party,
looking to the extinction of slavery,
thought that the secession Of the South
would make strong, free, and antagonis-
tic republic in the borders of the slave
States, and eventually secure the freedom
following their own ro>lavery instincts,
and viewing the Southern States as a
constant source of power, were anxious to
preserve them in the Union, il ior no
other purpose to, AT least, secure their
votes in every Presidential election. To
these men the rebellion was a question of
politics. At first they treated it as such
and the masses OF the party were cnthusi-
astic.i in favor OF the opinions / have cx-
pressed. We now see another Contrast
The leaders Of the Republican party are
unanimous IN declaring that this war can
only be prosecuted TO one issue, and that
the Union that whatever else may enter
into it, We can only emerge from it free,
happy, and united nation. The masses OF
the Democratic party, as citizens and
patriots, share this feeling, even while the
leaders are notoriously antagonistic to any
war that looks to the integrity of the Tx
ion and anxious for separations. This re-
suit has produced happy effects, anu must
be regarded as .hc great lesson of the war.
The masses of the two parties are harno-
Dized upon the one great, question
prosecution OF the wan until united na-
tion is obtained. All that is needed is
frankness and confidence among orr pub
lie men. Nothing else remains to consol-
date the North upon the basis that this
Republic can never be broken. The rebels
declare it has been broken, and never can
be reunited. Here is the issue formed at
once, and out of~this issue must spring
nni"n, liberty, triumph, aud perpetual
freedom Your leading meu have lately
awakened to a duty they should long since
have lcarned. The triumph in Rhoie
