THE RIGHT OF INNOVATION.

Having, as we trust, satisfied everybody else
with regard to the Right Of Revolution rersuS
that Of Secession, we have still the difficult
task of silencing Mr.. ID. A. MahoDy. late Of
Fort Lafayette, non-elect to the next Congress,
but Editor of The Dubuque Heratd-a journal
which, ever since the outbreak Of the Slave
holders Rebellion, has evinced most unmis-
taxable sympathy with JEFF. Davis and all bis
works. Though we have accorded him ample
space in our columns already, he returns to
the charge to-day. We must be brief, but
will try to answer his cayis with regard to
our views.
/. We do not, never did, and never shall
give any cOuntenance whatever to the aboml-
nabe heresy that a State has a right TO secedc
from our Federal Union. The United States
are not mere Coniederacy but nation; they
are bound together by no league, treaty, or
alliance but By Constitution, which may be
amended but cannot be repudiated. man

raj Union. Our purchases successfully, OF
Louisiana, Florida, aud of certain claims o!
Texas, and compacts with the new States
respecting Public Lands, our National Debt,
Navy, Forts, &C., all scout the idea OF Right
Of Secession.
ii. There is q Right of Revolution So our
fathers affirmed, in their Declaration of lnde-
pendence, and we will not deile their graves.
Inns right ante-dates all existing governments,
and IS superior to and more sacred than any
OF them, We affirm this right, as sot forth
and affirmed by Jefferson.
III. we DO not, and never did, affirm that
any portion Of people, anywhere, and for any
reason, mny make revolution. We have a
dozen times explained that if the people Of

pendence, calculating that they could enrich

TAKING POSITION.

The PrO-SIavery Democrats OF Connecticut
have nominated Thomas II. Seymour for Gov
ernor. He is military man as well as a
politician BY trade, and was Colonel Of a rcg-
ment Of New Englanders vino volunteered 10
servo in the War against Mexico. Had he
sympathized with tbs Union i'll the War waged
upon it by the Rebels, he would doubtless have
taken part in this War also; but ho has from
the first condemned aud opposed it, lIo did
not wait for the Proclamation of Freedom nor
any such pretext, but took ground against the
War from The start. Long before the Presi-
dent recognized and treated Slavery a. the
culpab!e cause Of the Rebellion, Col. Seymour
wrote and printed o letter unspOringly stigma
tzing the War. He, therefore, challenges Il
respect which we cannot feel for those who
falsely pretend that they and their party
heartily sustained the War up to September
kind, and is entitled to tho vote of every man
who thinks the Slave Power should be
permitted to trample on the Consultation and
defy the laws with IMMUNITY. Gen. 4. a.

most of the other churches, have likewise re-

from the Rev. Mr.. Eggers, the pastor OF the
German Lutheran congregation in Nashville, on
this subject which, coming from man who
has lived in Nashville from the first beginning
of the secession movements, will be accepted
with confidence. Mr.. Eggers writes:

citizens who publicly ayow that abolition OF

the significant signs Of the times.

that the Emancipation Proclamation wins us
no friends in other nations. The assertions
have repeatedly been shown to be false and
are again contradic.ed with emphasis by re.
cent public expression of sympathy from Cana
da. The Anti-Savery Society of that Province
held an anniversary meeting in Toronto on
Wednesday of last week. which, in spite Of
violent storm, was largely attended. IL num-
bered among it, active participants many cler-
gymen of high position aud wide influence, aud
many eminent citizens whose names are well
known in business and politics. The resolu-
tons aud speeches referred almost exclusively
to this country, and especially to the condition
and prospects of Slavery in the Rebel States
az affected by tho Proclamation, and the tone
Of both was friendly to the Republic aud hope
full of its future.
The Chairman, the Rev. DR.. Willis, stated
that the meeting had been deferred in order
to welcome the Proclamation. and plainly de-
clared that whatever might be the result of
the pending struggle, their sympathies were
due to the National cause whose triumph ill.,
sured the destruction of Slavery. The Rev.
DIR. Burns, who moved the frat resolution,
spoke in similar terms, and cordially expressed
hs wishes for the success, of the Northern ar
mics.
But the most important speech Of the meet
ing was made by the Hon. George Brown,
widely known in America aud England as n
leader Of the Liberal party in Canada. He
discusses the affairs of the United States with
on accurate nowlodge aud intelligent COM
prehenson very unusual in q foreigner, and
especially rare among Englshmen. His speech
might be read with profit here as well as in
Great Britain. 1t is wholly and heartily on
the side Of the Government and against the
Rebellion, and it is so because he recognizes
the Anti-Slayery character which the war has
derived from the Proclamation. We see"
says this clear-sishted observer, - that If the
policy of the present Government at Washing.
ngton prevails, the curse of human slavery:
will be swept from our continent forever; and
our hearts go up with earnest petitions to the
God Of Battles that He will strengthen the
hands of Abraham Lincoln, and give wisdom
10 his councils.
His testimony on one point is especially
valuable. He is just returned from visit to
England, where be does not fail to see that
" tho general sympathy was very decidedly on
the side of the South" But this sympathy he
traces to misconception of the character and
purpose Of tho war, declaring that England is as
Anti-Slayery as ever, and that the moment she Ia
convinced that the Proclamation announces the
adoption Of an answering policy, her people
will be for the Government and the Union
Such speech will exert helpful influence in
Canada aud Great Britain alike. Followed as
it was by others equally decided in expression
from men of public character and position, it
and they are an unmisiakable declaration Of
the favorable change which the Emancipation
Proclamation is producing in our relations
abroad

There is no class of loyal men whose courage

they are ready to lay the ak to the root Of tho
