Drifting.

Not only is the government" drift
ing away from the "ancient land
marks" in regard to our internal pol
icy, by ignoring state lines, putting the
military above the civil authority, in
terfering with " freedom of speech,
freedom of the press, and freedom of
the person under the protection of the
habeas corpus and trial by jury i'm
partially selected" and denouncing
the esprit of compromise and conces-
sion, the vital principle of republics,
without which there must be an APP
peal to force, the vital principle and
immediate parent of despotism," but
with an apathy which is criminally
stupid they permit the Inauguration,
by foreign powers, of policy destruc-
tive to the best interests of the repub-
lie, and at variance with its settled
and established rule. The "Monroe
Doctrine" which bears the sanction of
national appreciation for sixty years,
declares "hat zee should consider am
"attempt on their part TO ertend their sys-
tenn TO any portion Of this hemisphere as
dangerous 10 our peace and satety.-
"With the existing colonies or depen-
"dencies Of European powers we have
"not interfered, and shall not interfere
"But with the governments who have
declared their independence and
maintained it, and whose independ-
"ence we have, on great consideration
"and on just principles, acknowledged,
eve could not view any interposition
-" for the purpose Of expressing them or
controlling IN any other manner their des-
"tmy, By any European pO,cw, IN any
"other light than as the manifestation Of
San mtriendly disposition to,oards the
United States.
al is impossible that the allied Pomrs
"shOaH ertend their political system to
"dny pOrtin Of either continent, ~itho@
"cndangering our peace and happiness.
In the face of this, Napoleon Ill
has been allowed to establish a mon
archy in Mexico, without even a seri-
Gus effort, diplomatic or otherwise, on
the part of our government, to prevent.
An antagonistic political system,
the offspring of the worst form of
despotism, has been allowed to replace
one which at all events bore the name
of republican, at our very doors
The same timid, hating, nerveless
craftsmanship which distrusts the peo-
pie at every step, which yielded to the
abolition "pressure," and which is
now conspiring so to centralize power
in our government as completely to
change the nature of the compact, is
entitled to the main credit for this
royal consummation.

The Hon. j. b. Haskin, of Winches-
ter county, New York, in a speech DO.
fore the Board ofSupervisors, arguing
in favor Of a postponment of the con-
scription, concluded as follows:
81 am anxious, as / hope every citi-
zen is, to avoid the disgrace of the en-
forcement of the draft especially in the
county of Winchester, surrounded, as
il is, by so many revolutionary remi-
niscences; 1 feel assured that if the
government will but give us reason
able time, Winchester viii, without
the yoking ofconsoripts together, yield
all the men that the draft-so called
requires from this county. This
war thank god, is drawing TO close |;
this war in my opinion, does not re-
quire that there should be sent from
the State of New York q single man
to reinforce our armies. But if the
general government will insist upon
the enforcement of the draft, we must
meet it as loyal citizens meet it not
only as men who desire to have the re-
bellion crushed, the Union restored as
it was, and tho Constitution maintain
ed as it is, but also to perpetuate q
government for the Union and for the
State which shall in the future, as is
has been in the past, give more bene-
fits in the way of liberal principles
in the way of beneiicent legislation
in the way of everything that conduces
to make men on earth happy than
any government under heaven"
