Party NamaR.

Our excellent contemporary, the Peoria
Nail says that it must be admitted that
the opponents of the Democratic party ex-
hibit an astonishing degree of adroitness 10
changing the name Of their political or
ganizatiOn. They have exhausted nearly
the vocabulary Of the English language
already for high sounding titles.
Thus we have had Federal, Federal Re-
publican. Anti-Mason, Native American,
Wing, Know Nothing. Republican, Union
League, &c &C., and we now perceive the
Lincolnites of Wisconsin, call their late
State nominations, the Democratic Re.
publican Uniou Ticket"
The whole thing boiled down means
Abolition, and nothing else. The applica-
ton Of Games to which they are not emit
tied, is only for the purpose of covering up
the defOrmity which lies hidden within the
folds Of q corrupt aud Union despisiDg
party.
1t is related of the ostrich, that when
pursued by hunters, if it can manage to
find hiding place wherein to thrust its
head, no matter how far out it tail ekes to
public view.
just 50 With the Abolition party. 1t
seeks to cover up it's political abOminations
by the application, as circumstances may
require, Of high sounding phraEes, and
really imsGiDes the people aware of it's
designs against the Union and the consti
ton. The AbolitiOnists cannot hide their
hatred to the Constitution and Union as is
wss for the tail Of the animal is too plainly
visible TO admit of any doubt as to the
location of its bead.

han, formerly editor of the Times. and for
the past few years renegade from our par.

Major General Logan. and the Joliet Re.
publican, with considerable gustO, copies
the article in its columns.
Now, ii 10 appropriate that the Chicago
Post should some to the defence Of Gen.
Logan. He, like the editor Of that paper,
has wandered from the Democrats party
and is catering for Republican support.
Logan, it is true, is more open in bis apos.
tacy, but none the less mischievous than
the Chicago Post. The Democracy of the
State have weighed them iu balance, and
at the appropriate period will pronounce
them "found wanting"
The Chicago Post has been the tool Of
the Republican party since it's commence
ment. Indeed. We have heard it whisper
ed, pretty audibly too, that it was chiefly
sustained by Republican money with the
understanding that it should stab the
Democratic party in the dark. And most
faithfully has it filled its engagements.
The editor Of the Post works for pay.
Like bis great prototype. FOrney, he can
be hired to betray bis old friends and ben.
efactOrs. if more pay is offered. The Re-
publicans Of Chicago have learned this,
and, judging from the tone of bis paper,
are making use CT it.
The Post insiDuates that We did not sup.
port Mr.. Douglas in the great contest be-
tw cen himself and Mr.. Lincoln for the
Senate in 1858. In reply to this iDsiDua.
ton, We will say that our files will show
that We sustained Mr.. Douglas to the ex.
tent Of our ability. We never betrayed
Douglas, or the Democratic party either
and it would be better !ol the repots.ior

We would warn the Democratic press o
