A Convention of the Union Party to
nominate a Member Of Congress to be

ed to meet at Sparta, on the 25.h inst.
Ii is well that at this time. when the

PEACE.

We are all in favor of Peace. Every
loyal man in tho land prays for it with
farvent and unutterable desire. The war
with its waste of treasure, its loss of life,
and its agony of sorrow, weighs heavily
on the National heart.
But how can Peace be obtained ,
There are some who suppose it can be
stipulated for any dav--that the Govern
ment has but to offer certain terms To the
rebels, and these will be accepted and
peace declared. Such men entirel, mis-
apprehend the position of the Govern
ment and the purpose of the Southern
leaders. The evidence is conclusive and
undeniable that the Confederate Govern
ment will now accept of no peace but
that which gives them separate govern
ment and independent existence. Now.
who wishes peace at this pricea Who is
ready TO purchase peace by dissolution Of
the Union? Not a thousand men in
any State. The people see that endless
anarchy would result from such course.
There is then but one thing to do, and
that is to fight till the purpose of the
rebels is changed, or their ability to exc
cute that purpose is destroyed. The
war is heavy burden, but it is one that
God has laid upon this people, and it
cannot be put aside. 1t must be borne
manfuIly, and with the consciousness that
the end is worth the means.
We believe that the end is near-that
the available force OF the rebels is in
the field-that our veteran armies re-en-
forced BY the tremendous force now call
ed for viii crush all armed opposition
that the present leaders of the South
will be discarded and obliged to flee
from the people they have so terribly
duped-that power and Influence will
fall into the hands of loyal men, and the
mass of the people win cheerfully return
to their allegiance, and their loyalty be
renewed and strengthened by contrasting
the bene6cent rule of the United States
with the terrorism, the devastation, the
pitiless taxation, the sweeI ing conscrip-
tons, and theremorseless tyranny which
have characterized tie brief rule of the
Confederate Government.
Such we believe is to be the end, and
We all long for its speedy coming, and
all should cheerfully contribute to hasten
il OF.
