of politicians that has been SO often
aud so persistently perverted from its
true meaning and its original significa-
ton as the word "Union.'' If this
word was capable of protesting against
the ill-uses to which il has been SUBJ
ijectcd by demagogues and political
tricksters, with what indignation would

Ivehementiy would it protest against

! Before the election Of Mt. Lincoln,
an unionist was one who opposed, Che
dismemberment, under anydcireum-
stances, of,the several States of the
American Confederacy.i He believed
that under the Constitution this Uni3n
could exist "partslaye and part free. 7
He was accordingly sneered at as q
"Union Saver and denounced as d
Gckspittle Of slavery. On the other
hand he who would. say "that if the
election Of Lincoln would dismember
the Union, let it slilo''-he who de-
clared shat rather than compromise
our dificultieswould prefer to see the
! Union dissolved --was a disunioniSt.
But, now, forsooth, these same men,
| who have not changed their views in IA
single particular, who hold the very
same doctrines now, as before the elee-
ition of Lincoln, instead Of being lisu-
nionists as they then undoubtedly were,
are now par cxcellence Union men!
Before the election Of Lincoln rath-
er than compromise, rather than yield
one inch from their position, they
would see The Union, dismembered.
