The Harmony. of Disunion

The OF D1SuntOn.
The old ARTICLES of Agreement made be.
tween Greeley, Raymond, and their brother
Abolitionists, on the one side, and the Seces-
sionistsi of the Southern States on the other
side, by which each bound themselves to the
other TO labor for one common end-the de-
stfuction of the old Union, hated by both,
and the overthrow Of the Constitution, OBJ
etruciive to the schemes of both-appear still
70 hold good. The Richmond Wig, Seces
sion organ, publishes an attack upon Gen. Nc
Clelian, who, after the pattern Of its Northern
allies, it ironically dcsignates as the "Young
Napoleon ;" and the New York Times and
Tribune, Abolitionists, together with all the
Abolition organs of the State, reproduce the
2 Whig's assault upon the Union Commander,
and make merry over its attempted bitterness.
It is fitting that these 'sb-others in arms
who have together rallied at the Constitution
and reviled the Union in bygone days, should
now unite in denunciation Of the soldier who
has proved faithful to the one and risked his
life for the other. 1t was to be expected that
their estimation Of Mcclellan would prove
harmonious, and that his removal from the
command of the Federal forces would be as
acceptable to the enemy he would have SUBJ
daed, as to the Northern traitors who hate the
Uaien he would have restored.-N 7. Argus.

THE CONNECTICUT ELECrIoN.-There is great
stress laid upon this election by the copper
heads on one hand and the niggerheads on the
other. Both factions are trying to pervert it to
their own selfish purposes; but In national
view it really amounts to nothing which side
wins. The result cannot materially affect the
destiny Of the country; it cannot hasten nor re-
tard the progress Of the great conservative re-
volution at the ballot box in 1864. That is as
much beyond the control Of politicians as is the
natural law by which the spring tide advances
from the lowest ebb to the highest water mark
without the aid Of artificial means and in de.
spite of every obstacle.
The New York herald., 1863-03-27

have been tolerated simply because they have
hitherto been convenient and beneficial. If
the Superintendent raises the question of the
comparative legality of banks authorized by
the general aud those authorized merely by
State governments, the courts must decide
against him, and we shall soon have no State
banks and no State Superintendent OF Banks.
There is the whole matter in nutshell. Bet
ter let it rest where it is.

MOZART HALL AND THE WAR.-The democra-
tic organization in this city known as Mozart
Hall is making speeches and passing resolu-
tions against the laws Of Congress, just as if
the revolution at the ballot box in 1864 will
not sweep away all that is unconstitutional in
the proceedings of the republican party with
out resorting to violent measures now, which
would be sure to result in anarchy instead OF
remedying the evil. The object of these poll
ticians is to get control Of the Presidential
nominations for 1864 and the spoils that apper-
tain thereto. But by their excessive lust Of
public plunder and premature violence they
may defeat themselves. Why do not the con-
servatives of old Tammany Hall come out and
sustain the administration and vigorous pro-
secution Of the war by passing resolutions de-
nouncing the violence counselled in the oppo-
sition democratic shop?

THE STATE BANKS AND THE GOVERNMENT
BANKING Srsrxx.-We notice that Mr. William
Allen Butler has written letter TO the Super
inteudent Of Banks Of this State In regard to
the government banking system, and that the
Superintendent, in his reply hints that 1t is his
purpose to interfere with the establishment OF
banks here under the government system
This is perfectly absurd. The constitution
gives Congress the power to regulate the cur
rcncy, and the government banking system is
part Of the currency system. On the other
hand, the constitution prohibits States from
issuing bills Of credit-that is, bank bills-and
our State banks are consequently illegal; for
the State authorities cannot whip the devil
round the stump" by granting to incorpora-
tions powers of which the constitution ex-
pressly deprivcs the State itself. State banks

THE GREAT CONSERVATIVES REVOLUTION OF
l864.-Every sign of the times indicates that
a great conservative revolution is in progress,
which will culminate in the Presidential elec-
ton of 1864. and sweep the republican party
out of existence. The elections last fall re-
vealed the strength volume and direction OF
the popular current, and ever since the mighty
flood has been swollen by tributary streams.
There is no necessity, therefore, for the copper
heads to anticipate by violence the verdict of
the people, and no use for the niggerheads to
attempt to avert their doom by resorting to
new organizations which they call "Union
Loyal Leagues" just as If the whole communi-
ty were not loyal and in favor of the Union.
This is stupid and silly device, transparent to
every eye. And equally absurd is it for the cop
perheads to attempt to monopolize the love of
constitutional liberty. The people are conser-
vative, and deeply and sincerely attached to
the constitution, the Union and the laws.
Hence the party politicians bid for their sup
port by wearing the mask Of public virtue,
whereas, unveiled they are as hideous as Mo
kama. But the people understand the copper
heads and the niggerheads alike, and will not
play into the hands of either faction, but will
overthrow both At the ballot box in the fall Of
1864. It is not now convenient for them to
settle with the party in power. It might en-
danger the safety Of the republic. They will,
therefore, give all needful support to the ad-
ministration in its prosecution Of the war; but
there is day Of reckoning to come.

ARREST OF MEN CHARGED WITH DIsLoYAL
PRAcrICEs-THE RIGHT AND THE WRoNG Way
We published yesterday the details Of the re-
cent arrest Of three men in Oneida county, in
this State, charged with disloyal practices. II
appears that these alleged proceedings of "aid
and comfort to the enemy were duly reported
to the Secretary of War, and that he promptly
ordered their arrest and removal to Washington
as political prisoners. The officials charged
with the execution Of the order called, en- route
upon Provost Marshal Simeon Draper, and, like
practical and sensible man, as he is, he ad-
vised them to avoid the arbitrary course which
they were directed to pursue by Secretary Stas,-
ton, and to go before United States Commits
sioner In Oneida county and get a warrant for
the arrest Of the parties accused, and take them
before the Commissioner for examination; and
this was DONE The result was that one of the
accused individuals was held to bail to answer
to the Indictment while the others were dis
charged for want Of evidence. The witnesses
being all in the neighborhood the matter was
quickly brought to q conclusion, and to the
perfect satisfaction of members Of all political
parties
On the other hand, had these accused parties
been arbitrarily seized and carried off to WASH
ington, as directed by Secretary Stanton, there
would, in all probability, have been serious
disturbance in Oneida county and serious
popular excitement throughout the loyal States
All this has been avoided by enforcing the law
in legal way. The people OF the North
are law-abiding people. They are ever ready
to bow to the majesty Of the law; but they are
exceedingly sensitive against any denial or in
fraction Of their rights in the way Of the protec-
ton Of the law. Provost Marshal Draper has
shown how easily, by the regular forms of
law, the laws can be enforced; and If Secretary
Stanton has not yet learned that his system Of
arbitrary arrests and imprisonments will not
answer, the sooner he Is turned adrift by Presi-
dent Lincoln the better II will be for his ad-
ministration, for public harmony in the loyal
States, and for q vigorous prosecution Of the
war.
