CONFLICT OF FORCES.

We need not attempt TO disguise the fact that
tho present conflict II a conflict between the
democratic and anti i-democratic forces Of the
nation. We speak in the phiosophic sense.
Names are nothing unless connected with dis
tnctive principles The nearly unanimous
declaration Of the leaders Of the Rebellion to
the effect that 4" Republican Government in the
South must be subducd"-that Slavery can
not exist in connection with the eniranclisc-
ment Of the Masses and the exercise Of political
power by them" are emanations of dcep-roo'cd
conviction on the minds of shareholders. The
monopoly Of political power by Shareholders Las
been the great aim and object Of the conspira-
tors. This Of course involved the subyersion Of
the democratic principle, and affords the basis
Of that alliance which now exists between these
anti-dcmocratic forces in the South and the
an,i-dcmocratic forces in Europe. We may as
well open our eyes TO the real nature Of the
conflict at once. The lovers Of free Govern
ment will soon be Obliged 20 contemplate the
issue in It's full meaning and magnitude, and
under circumstances when 40 partyism can dis
guisc the real conflict, nor intrigue turn aside
the public mind from the garing reality.
We are to-day standing upon tie law OF force
in conflict between the deep-seatcd antago-
nisms of democracy and aristocracy. Whether
our countrymen choose to acknowledge it or
not. this is the case. 1t would bo well, per-
haps, If the people Of this nation could DO loi!

alone to settle tho question, but such may not
be the case. The active sympathy of the anti
democratic influences of Europe, bitter in their
hostility to the democratic principle, may not
permit it. Their staple argument is danger
Of restoration" Every Sccessionist cmlssary
at the courts of Europe is plying this argument,
"allow the Union to be restored, and you guar
anty the certain spread and universal establish
ment of Republican government" This is now
sounded as the tocsn of alarm to the arlstocracy
Of England and the privileged classes elsewhere
That the jealousy Of these anti-democratlc
forces has put on an active form no one can
doubt. That they will venture into active
alliance with the Southern leaders is mere
question of military and commercial calcula-
ton. There is one certain way to avoid
struggle with foreign powers-A UNITED FRONT
OF TIE LOYALTY OP THE NATION. This Will
avert any probable coalition of the enemies OF
democracy to be arrayed in warfare against our
nationality: in other words, foreign interven-
ton through force is improbable and almost
impossible if the nation is loyal to itself in the
suppression of rebellion against Free Govern

pred, they at once assumed that the Union
could only thereafter be restored through their
accession to power, and the consequent rcpudia-
ton of President Lincoln's policy of Freedom.
That the Rebels would or could be subdued,
they regarded as clearly impossible.

fore the advancing, triumphant armies of the
Union. And everywhere tho slaves, who have
been the industrial main-stay Of the Rebellion,
arc our active and efficient allies. Tens Of thou.
sands Of them fill our ranks and fight braycly,
nobly; hundreds of them have died battling for
our cause; everywhere they work for US, scout for
US, warn US of impending dangers, and desert
from their masters service TO ours at the first
opportunity. The Rebellion is dying; and one
main cause of this is the inability of the South
ern Whites to respond TO JEFF. DaviS's edic;s OF
conscription as they formerly did. 1t will 10
longer answer to send all their free men into
the camps, and leave the farms and plantations
to the women, children and slaves. Where this
is now tried the slaves speedily vanish, to re-
appear in the Union armies. Hence tho bank
ruptcy of Treason.
And now Seymour, Parker & Co. demand
that the Government shall abandon the policy
which is crushing the Rebellion and return to
that under which-wc appeal to their own last
years speeches-no progress was made, no real
success achieved They admit that the South
ern revolt is in its death-throes, and in the same
breath insist that we shall abandon the policy
which has brought it to this pass and return to
that which was tried nearly two years and
proved an utter failure! Ia this statesman
