The Louisville Journal urges the people
10 remember that the Northern Democ-
racy are fighting face to face with the
abolitionisCs, while The Union men Of
Kentucky are fighting face 10 face with
the secessionists, and that there is ac-
cordingly the same reason foy he latter

The administration of LINCOLN & Co."
is, according TO the Journal to be de-
nounced at every turn Z" in like man
ner as the administration of JEFF. DA-
WIS q Co." AT time of extraordinary
national peril, when patriots are concern
ed, not about the party which shall con-
troll the country, but whether we are TO
have country at all, or not, this Ken
lucky organ, which calls itself conserva-
tive, but which is as incendiary and rad
ical as JACK CADE, WAT TYLER or DAN
SHAY, attempts to stir up the people TO
war against the Federal Administration,
which we are solemnly bound to obey for
two years to come. And it is not only 10
be denounced, but it is to be denounced as
vehemently as the usurpa,ion Of JEFF
DAVIS and the Richmond junto. And
who are LINCOLN & Co. that they are 10
be denounced as bitterly as though they
were armed traitors? One of the COM
pany is Mr.. SEWARD, the Secretary of
State, man who was considered an in
tellectral giant when CLAY and Webster
were there diplomatist who, while the
whole country apprehended foreign in
tervention, conducted our international
fairs with consummate skill and address
The load was vast, but the shoulders of
ATLAS have proved equal to the burden.
Another Of the company is Secretary
CHAsE, whose mastery skill in mansg-
ing, and reducing to a safe and regular
system the disordered and impeFriled

tradorinary combination Of adverse cir
cumstances, has given confidence and
cheerfulness to the people, and will en-

and ALEXANDER HAMPTON. The fame
of CHASE alone would shed immortal
honor upon the present administration
On his shoulders rested most fearful
responsibility. His was the duty of fur

the Journal might ask TO be judged
mildly by Kentucky loyalists, at least
Kentucky has been treated with extra
ordinary consideration by the Govern

long needed 10 a most perilo US extent
The blood and treasure of the nation has
been poured out like water for her pro-

politicians, The Journal among them, were
hobbling upon the crutch of neutrality
venerable member Of theilast Kentucky
Legislature said that the administration
had expended SloO,0o0Oo0. Why then
this factious denunciaton of the admin

otism. No man is such fool as TO be-
lieve that continual opposition to, and
denunciation Of the administration
whose legal duty it is to conduct the
war, can possibly promote the vigorous
and successful prosecution Of the war
