A Fact to be Neticed.

There seems to be a perfect and most cor
dial understanding between the Black Repub.
lican and the Secession press. Both scout all
terms of settlement, and clamor with the same
vehemence for moro blood-shed. The Cincin-
natl Commercial habitually fcrtifes its position
by quoting the Richmond press. 1t draws
from no other source SO -cepiously. It finds
great comfort in the fact that the Richmoud
Dispatch frepudiabes all idea of meditation
1t quotes the Richncnd Enquirer to the effect
that Lincoln is nj usurper,' and publishes,
from the same paper, assaults upon Mr.. Val.
landigham and the Democratic part. In a
world, there seems an entire harmony of
views and interests between the leading Re
publican and secession presses. It is natural
there should be. Both hate the Ceusti-
tuition and the Union, and with an equal de-
of intsnsity-Lo5an Gazette.

The London correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Enquirer (Republican) of the 18th inst.
writes as follows : 10
"The French are just now building an i'm
nense feet of steam transports, large, strong
and powerful, each one capable of carrying a
thousand men,, with horses and artillery
Forty Of these are completed, and there are to
be enough to carry an army of so, 600 with all
its stores and material. Now, the question il,
what can be the destination of this large, cost.
ly, and powerful feet of transports. They are
not for continental warfare. In Europe they
can be of use in transporting troops only to
Italy or to England. They mean invasion
By means of them a force of &c.
GOO men could be landed any day in England
or Ireland, and in ten or twelve days il the
United States. It may be doubted if any coun-
try ever had so formidable a means for aggrcs.
warfare"
This is a matter worth the attention of the
Minister at the Preach Court.

The New York Freeman's Journal has been
cxhuming some of the sayings of the Fathers
OF the Republic, and presenting them for the
consideration of their descendants Of the pres
emit day IF Madison and Hamilton-both=
members of the Convention that framed our
National Constitution, and the former esteem-
ed a its author-were living low, and would
write and speak as they did then. Lincoln,
Seward, Stanton q Co., would have bad then.
ia the Government Bastilcs long ago.
Hamilton, the world knows, was in favor of
a stronger Government than ours was then
supposed to be under the Constitution, and
proposed to take the British Constitution as a
model. Had he lived to the present day, he
would discover that our government, in the
hands of its present managers has more
STRENGTH than he ever dreamed Of.
In speaking of that clause of the Constitu-
ton which says that the President shall be
Commander.fn.chicf Of the militia of the sew
eral States ohen called into the service of tho
United States Hamilton treats as the rawlings
of fanatics the expressions uttered at that day,
that this power could be SO distorted as to
sanction such excesses rs that the Virginia
militia are to be dragged from their homes
five or six hundred miles to tame the Repub-
lican conturuacy of Massachusetts and the mil
itia Of Massachusetts, to be transported an
equal distance to subdue the refractory haugh-
tiness of the aristocratic Virginians.'
This is precisely what We are now, and ha 7e
been doing, for the lase two years, under the
newly discovered power of military necessity
that power which Madison, Hamilton, and
their fellow patriots, never dreamed of. Con
templating such an attempt on the part of the
Federal Government, Hamilton exclaims
WHITTIER would the militia, irritated at
being required to undertake a distant and dis
tressing expedition, for the purpose IF riueting
the chains Of sloreyy on a part of their conn
trymen, direct their march, but TO SEAT
OF TIE who had meditated so FOOL
ISM, as well as SO WICKED a project-to crash
them an their imagined intrenchments Of po,o-
e-, and make them an example of the just
vengeance of an ABUSED and INDIGNANT
PEOPLE
These extracts, with others of a similar
character from Madison, are taken from the
sFederalist,' No. XVII. Well may the

by preconcerted arrangement, a Black Repub-
ican bully,i ficted q blow on d Democrat /;

The Democratic vote has incresed nearly s.
600 since 1850. The Abolition vote h 5 fai.
len of, including the Independent strength,
about that amount. Nobody appears to have
gone to the War. In the Western States we
see the chasm produced by the volunteers in
the small vote. Not SO in New Hamnshira
Ber.quota lin the field, like all of the New
England States, must DO very small, or she
could not throw a larger vote than she did in
the Presidential election of 1860.
According. to the returns, one man in every
sic of those who have hitherto voted against
the Democracy, has now changed, and record
ed his vote IN their favor. This is a very large
change for a New England community but II
does not begin to equal the change in the
West, whore it would be one to every four
or Jfue.
TheDemocracy has for the first time since
1852 elected a Congressman in New Hamr-
shire Cincinnati Inquirer.
