TIL ISSUE.

We regard i our imperative duty as .
public journalist, at this important epoch
in our country's history, to call the a,ten
ton Of our readers Of every political shade
and character to an examination Of the
alI.absorbing and important questions
which they will be required to pass npon
at the next Presidential election. a~
First, We would have them investigat
the position Of the two parties with refer
ence to a reconstruction, and determine
for themselves, whether the Democratic
or Abolition theory is most likely 10 result
in this consums,ion most devoutly to be
wished. By continuing in powe, the pres.
ent Administration We adopt q policy
which has for its basis Of reconstruction
the abrogasion Of State Righ.s-.be re-
quireme". Of the preparation BY the
Southern Confederacy Of an impossibility,
viz: the abolition Of slavery in every
State whose Constitution recognizes its
va'idity'-ths doing i" fact what no power
can do aqder our Federal Constitution
'saving and, except the State ITSELF Thi.
is the policy Of the presen. administration
a. enuocis,td by Mr.. Lincoln, and upon
this lnie it is proposed to fight it out,
though it takes the last man and the last
dollar! On the other hand, the Demo.
crazy have adopted as their policy con
ssrvativs basis Of reconstruction and res.
tora,ion. While we pledge ourselves o.
party to answering fidelity to the Federal
union of the States as the only solid foun
da,ion Of our strength, security and hap
p;ness MS a people, and make this our aim
and object. We freely concede to the
people of every section of our common
country the assurance that in the union
under Democratic administration they
will have no right trampled upon that
there will be 10 disregard Of the principles
Of the Constitution; that they will be
treated as equals and brothers other than
this we promise nothing to any people Of
any State. Upon this issue, which the
Republican party have rendered and which
We have responded to, the candidates Of
the Chicago Convention rely, and upon it
they are willing to abide the final arbi,ra.
ment Of the peoples decision.

The NeTcElunt and the Artisan.

a merchant of New York, during the
present war, made contract with a me
chanIc to supply him with quantity Of TN
cans. Not long after this the price Of tin
rose so much that the contractor must loose
money by completing the work at the price
agreed upon. However, he sand nothing,
but went Oh delivering the cans. When the
first bill for part OF the cans was received.
the employer called upon him and said =
. | understand you are losing money on
this job -
" Yes replied the artisan. q but can
stand it; II contract is II contract you
know
3" How much will you loose " asked Tie
merchant.
"Oh, no matter was the reply: al
don complain, and you ought not TO-.
- ! insist on knowing
Wei. since you desire it," said the ar.
lisan, . ] shall loose so much on the hun
drcd," naming the amount
"Well, sir said the noble hearted man ;
you must not loose this ; it would not he
right. | shall add the amount to your bill.
and as the price of material may still rise,
will advance you the money for the whole
Of the contract, which no doubt you can
now use to advantage.n
The difference thus paid, to which the
honest contractor laid no claim. amounted
to five hundred dollars. The conduct of
both the merchant and the artisan illustrated
something more than business honesty : 1t
was Christian principle carried out in bust
ness.

SECRET WHIrENG.-This art has been i'm.
ploycd to a great extent by military and
naval officers for the purpose of conveying
information Of the movements of the enemy,
&c. Many plans have been resortcd to to
attain this end. The simplest consists in
writing with an ink which is coiorlcss, and
consequently invisible to the eye until heat
a sure chemical means, has produced IL
change and mode the secret writing appar
ent. Some of these inks are very simple.
The juice Of an onion or milk, will be inyis-
iblc till exposed to heat when the parts
written with it become of u brown color
Starch dissolved i'll water will if employed
as an ink for secret writing rcmaiu without
color until washed over with Il solution of
iodine, when it becomes of blush color
Water in which oak gals have been soaked
may be used as an ink for secret writing
which will become black when washed over
with weak solution Of sulphate of iron in
water. The green sympathetic ink is we'll
known; it is dilute solution of cobalt in
nitro. muratlc. acid. The writing with this
ink assumes a green color when the paper
is warmed at the fire and resumes its orr
ginal invsbility when cold. This solution
has been therefore, used in washing over
different parts of similar subjects. These
when brought near fire, of course become
of green color, so as to change the wintry
appearance of the view into the appearance
OF spring; when cold again returning to its
former appearance.
