From tho National Az Unionlst.


From the National tKy.) UuiOnist,
RThO COpPerhesd "ioupals" are
in the habit Of calling the Union party
Radicals" and "Abolitionists," In
one sense We acknowledge ourselves
AbolidOniss and Radicals. We are in
favor Establishing the rebellion obol,
ishing rebels--nbolishing rebel sympa'
thizers-nbolishing tho principles Of
those who oppose the laws of the land,
and abolishing this new,aedged Demo
cratic party, over which the old Whig'
George D. PrOntice. presides. We are
radically opposed to seCession--to re.
sislonce to the laws Of the United States
TO bringing in conflict State and Ma.
tional authority--to favoring rebels
and TO the Democratic party. When
Conservatism means abuse OF our Presi-
dent aud no abuse Of JEFF. Dayis-oppo.
sition to every measure 70. putting down
the rebellion--stirring up the people to
resist the laws Of the land-to retard en-.
listments and favor desertion, reliance
upon rebel votes, and the taking Of
uvowed rebels into their counsels--to
threatening Union men and defending
rebels denouncing Union men and as.
socialing with rebels 10 the stictcst po-
ltiCal confidence. We pray to be de.
liveled from il. Or Radicalism means,
preservation ofthe Union, cost what it
may. The Conservatism in this COM
muni'y means, preserve the negro
though the Union goes 10 the dogs, -
Our Radicalism means, an undivided
Union for the white mans sake. Con.
serYatism means, q broken Union for
the sake OF the negro. We would pre-
serve the Union though slavery was
abolished The Conservatives would
preserve slavery though the Union be
abolished. Our Radicalism strikes at
the root OF the rebellion. Their Con,
servatism strikes at the root Of the Tn.
ion. Our Rauicaism makes us patriot.
&c, free, happy, desiring and intending
10 have o united country. Their Con-
.servaGsm makes them poor miserable
slaves to fear that they will soon be
on an equality with the negro. Our
.Radicalism gives us country 10 be
proad of; their Conservatism sinks them
10 the contemplate rank of,tbe Arnold'
and Catalines, who have won the &C.
cursed notorety of being their counwy't
enemies. Yes, we are proud ofthis, oul
Raiicalism, and we expect to wear it as
an!tonor to ourselves and precious her
i;ase to our children. While the Con.
seryatives will leave their names ant
deeds to stain the page of orr history
and haunt their children to the third
generation.
