TuEpRESEyT CRISIS.
What Shall be Done for our ImnerlIIed d
Country.

That the Republics In danger is so mani
festIy and lamentably true, rs to need no ar-
gument. Now the practical question is tshat
*hon b. done 10 asert the impending calamity?
: II some election were at hand, the polttt-
clans, ever earnest md active in their own
advocacy, would arouse the people to undue
excitement. And docs 1t not bchooro loyal
citizens to take lesson from hepo1itlcians,
and In view Of fthe momentous ISSUES involved
In the present crisis of the country to
ORGANIZE!
Let the patriotic citizens Of Chicago, ire
spectiye ofpaHy, assemble to adopt measures
for the organization Of committees In every
district Of the State. Let there be Central
or Executive Committee, and the province Of
this and Of all cooperating Herewith, be the
dissemination among the people Of tho doc
t1ines Of Loyalty toward the he, ,Gore!rnment, in
able that the Initiation Of such a movement
here mny be followed By like action elsewhere
in the Norths Through the instrutucntality
Of such general organization Of men Of all
parties, and especially Of young men, who are
In favor Of sustaining the Government, pub
publication might be secured Of all honest
md stirring appeals to the patriotism ct the
people, to BE written by such men as Edward
Everett, Judge Holt and otl,ere Of like repu-
tation for eminent patriotism aud enlarged
craftsmanship. All publications thus made
By this fraternity Of genuine Union men might
be freely circulated in every city town, hamlet
and 1icfghborlood Of the North, counteracting
the peEnicinus influence Of designing dcn1n-
gogues, md rey1Fing the patriotism Of the
people.
Is not such plan, or some other like Il,
entirely practicable? Is it not necessity of
the tines-a necessity urgent and manifcstly
imperative? Chicago originates much that Is
good. Can she not, through her loyal men,
representing different parties, inaugurate this
movement: and If adopted elsewhere, who
can measure the results Of such energetic and
concerted action! Let u1l threats Of violence
] here in the North be avoided. q tolc-
rance Of opinion be cnltiyatcd, and ap-
of the reople. As they control the destiny
Of tie Republic, for its sake let us not fail to
| suread fT,nIs before them-ayc, and press
| fkem home to their understandings and their
| hearts. Let concert Of action among the
| loyal make amends for the absence of giants
from our national councils. II there be no
great pilot ut the national helm, let the crew
steer the vessel through the storm. With all
our boosted enlightenment as a nation, with
shall ne succumb to this crisis, stand appalled,
In the presence Of the periIs that surround
us, paralyzed with fear, and sinking into help
less apathy.
God forbid!
Loyal men, let US bestir ourselves to save
our country from the conTulsions impending,
| that surviving these, every man Of uni.n.
peaehed loyalty may still be proud Of the title
| Of An AMERICAN CITIZEN.
