saS-The Evening Journal, published at

self-righteous Pharisees, while glorify-
ing themselves for crueties, lift their
hands and turn up their eyes in holy
horror if few banks are robbed at St.
Adams, or some boats are seized on
Lake Erie, in order to retalate on

The Popular Verdict.

Now that the presidential election
is numbered among the "things that
were" and the recollection Of Abraham
Lincoln, and the election of Andrew
johnson are fixed facts, il is by no
means just or advisable to regard the
matter as n mere party triumph. 1t
is a national triumph Of loyalty over
secret or overt treason to the Repub-
lie. Men who are antipodos on strict
ly political issues which have hereto
fore divided this great nation forgot
their differences when the existence
of the republic was in jeopardy and
cast their sufrages for the great stan
dard bearers Of the Union The tri-
umph then is national one. 1t is I'M
just unwise and impolitc to treat the
last popular verdict as party tri-
umph.
We do not, under existing circum-
stances, deem It consistent with either
good taste or sound policy to indulge
in any boastful Civilizations over those
freemen who found their feelings and
consciences satisfied by voting for
Gen. Mcclellan, We do not think it
consistent with either good feeling,
taste or policy to- step aside to hurl
abusive epithcts upon Gov Seymour
or any other opposition candidate who
fell short of gaining office The
country must be saved from the ro-
bellion that seeks TO overthrow it.
The country needs all of its men in
this hour of trial The folly of stop
ing to quarrel about abstract questions
of politics 50 long as the question of
national existence remains undecided
is too palpable to require comment.
The folly of disputing about men and
their qualifications, now that the pop
ular verdict has been rendered is too
obvious to need remark.
From this verdict 50 solemnly rem
dered, there is no appeal, and it now
becomes all freemen, no matter under
what political banner thoy rallied in
the late presidential contest, to come
to the rescue and, putting down the
rebellion, to conquer peace at the ear
hest possible moment Unanimity al
the North and among all the Iowa
States is indispensable to immediate
success.
This unanimity cannot be secured
by quarrelling over the verdict after
1t has been rendered 1t can best be
secured by forgetting the past and it,
heated controversies, and pushing OF
with oil possible dispatch to secure al
early termination of our nationa
struggle. SO far as lies in our power
we shall gladly cooperate in all meas
ures, which shall render us again Al
united and prosperous people; and i
we do not indulge in any language o
taunt or exultation, it is because sucl
language is never becoming and, leas
OF all, when a civil war is raging
which calls for unanimous publ
sentiment in the loyal States to ten
inmate it at the earliest date by prom
and decisive measures.
