The .{juiOu party."

The political patty in this country which
we at present call abolition, has, In its
numerous transformations during sixty years
past, perpctrated some extraordinary msno.
mers as to itself, and some monstrous frauds
as to its principles and purposes. But its
last misnomer exceeds all others in impu-
dence, as its pretences are more false and
fraudulent than any which have gone before
them. II now styles itself the " Union par
ty!" and pretends to seek the salvation of the
Union! Good Lord
Between the election of Mr.. Lincoln and
the breaking out of the war, this party was
gravcly considering the question of " letting
the South CO." and, since tho war assumed
formidable proportions, it has had no othci
purpose in prosecuting it than to sweep away
State lines in the South, oxtinguish domestic
institutions, reduce the conquered country to
military dependencies, and change the char.
aeter OF the Federal Government.
This is the " Union Party ~" which has
Just carried Pennsylvania, Ohio and New
York. God have pity on the Union.

Cost of Printing.

The Mwark AdUocate says Recent
ly we sent to Philadelphia an amount of
money which two years ago, would have
paid for more than one hundred pounds
OF Printers ink. Last Tuesday. we re-
ceived letter from the manufacturer
saying that our money was only sufficient
to pay for fifty pounds inasmuch as the
price of ink had again advanced with q
prospect of going still higher" SO it is
with everything required in Printing
Office; and we are not little perplexed
to see how we are to continue charging
no more for our paper and yet pay in
creased prices for everything used in a
Printing Office or in Printers house

Restoring the Union.

Tho Presidents manner OF endeayoring to
rest ore the Union by encouraging and stim.
ulating the growth of Union sentiment in the
South, is well exempliied in his treatment OF
North Carolina, State which has evinced an
unequivocal desire TO shake OIL tho rebel
government and return to her allegiance. 49,
He sends Butler as her military commander,
who holds that North Carolina is annihilated
as State, and should never again be recog.
nized as a member of tho Union unit il some
"modern improvements" have totally chang.
ed her old system of government. That is
theway Mr., Lincoln is " restoring tho I'm
ion."

what IA Fearful Responsibility

when the books come to be balanced
aud the accounts OF this administration will
its soldiers are spread upon the trial sheet o
history. its debit charges on the account o
Its Richmond campaigns win make fesriu
showing, 1t will seem almost incredible &c
posterity, but 1t is demonstrably true that
the administration perversey refused to pp''
sue the manifest line Of operation "','.e
Richmond for their obioc,io point So'o9
,o,.,.. "a. .ao,,,;-. would vindicate the
,,,,..,,,,,,, =, a General it had determined to
,,.., ace and set aside. This muiish obstina-
CIV. condemned alike by experience, by the
counsel of the wisest military talent, by the
voice OF the people, and by the dictates OF
common sense has cost the country year of
time. n thousand millions OF dollars, and the
lives of the brave men slaughtered at Chan
cellorville, Fredericksburg, and Gettysburg
A year ago Mcclellan was set aside, ostensi
bly, because OF the tardiness ofbis movements.
We have since tried Burnside, Hooker, and
Meade, fought The three terrific battles emu
merated above had new draft OF three
hundred thousand men, every conscrpt real
lied being sent to the army of the Potomac,
and our army is still virtually in the defeuses
Of Washington. And all this is because the
administration chose to remove Democratic
General, rather than to" crush the rebellion
We repeat, this is almost incredible, but it is
as true, nevertheless, as truth itself There
are few intelligent people who will now deny
that Mcclellan would have taken Richmond
had not the inexcusable crininality of the
War Department prevented. And posterity
will hold the managers of the campaigns to
dreadful accountability for their guilt in thil
matter. The blood Of hundred Thousand
slaughtered heroes cry to heaven from th
ground against them.

Notwithstanding the Aboltonists say
that the Democratic party is dead, they,
to use one of the President classical
quotations, "keep peggn' away" at it.
They will rise up some morning in No

Let our Democratic friends keep up their
rganization-stan6 firm, dividing on no
issues, and "peg away" at the corrup-
tionists who are so miserably mismana-
ging our National affairs, and the people
in their sober second thought will call
into power the Democlay who will re-
store repose, order, peace and Union in
our distracted country. The mission OF
the Democratic party-the purpose ol
its existence--is to secure the blessings
Of Liberty to the people, the perpetuity
Of the Union and the maintenance o. our
present Constitution.-,Se Seneca 1dvertiser
