the electors, gave up their party name, and,
joining with the loyal Democrats, put in
nomination candidates of either party UNI
der the designation of Union party. The
Democratic party made but spiritless re-
sstance in the canvass. From whatever
cause 1t has happened, political debates
during the present year have resumed, in
considerable degree, their normal character,
and while loyal Republicans have adhered
to the new banner of the Union party, the
Democratic party has rallied and made
vigorous canvass, with view to the recov-
cry of its former political ascendency.-.
Loyal Democrats, in considerable number,
retaining the name of Democracy from
habit, and not because they oppose the
Union, are classified by the other party as
"OppOsitiOn." 1t is not necessary for the
information of our representatives abroad
that should descend into any examination
of the relative principles or policies of the
two parties. 1t will suffice to say that
while there may be men of doubtful politi-
cal wisdom and virtue in each party, and
while there may be differences of opinion
between the two parties as to the measures
best calculated TO preserve the Union and
restore its authority, yet it is not to be in
ferred that either party, or any considera-
BILE portion of the people Of the loyal States,
circumstances or upon any terms. 1t is
rather to be understood that the people have
become SO confident of the stability of the
Union that partisan combinations are re-
suming their sway here, as they do in such
cases in all free countries. In this country,
especially, it is habit not only entirely
consistent with the Constitution, but even
essential to its stability, to regard the Adj
ministration at any time existing asdistinct
and separable from the Government itself,
and to canvass the proceedings of the one
without the thought of disloyalty to the
other. We might possibly have had quick
er success in suppressing the insurrcction if
this habit could have rested little longer
in allegiance; but, on the other hand, we
are under obligations to save not only the
integrity or unity of the country, but also
its inestimable and precious Constitution.
No one can safely say that the resumption
OF the previous popular habit does not tend
to this last and most important comsumma-
tion if, at the same time, as we confidently
expect, the Union itself shall be saved.
T. am, sir, your obedient servant,
WM ii. SEWARD.

in Philadelphia last Saturday, and came out
squarely for Mcclellan. He gave the fol-
lowing, among other reasons, for his course:

people; when the Republican Administra-
tion of Abraham Lincoln directly violates

DEpARTMENT oF STATE,

SIR:-It is probable that the ground which
the enemies Of the Union In Europe will next
assume in prosecuting their aoar against it, suill
be an alleged detection Of popular support Of the
Governn,eFt Qt the elections recently held IN the
loyal States. The reports Of the results of
these elections in the forms adopted by the
press are calculated, though not designed,
to give plausibility to this position, / OBJ
serve. that these reports classify the mem
bers of Congress chosen as Union and DEM

classifications, though unf0rtunateSd do less
harm here, where all the circumstances of
the case are known, than abroad, where
names are understood to mean what they
express. Last year, when the war began,

POLITICAL.

Senator Foot Of Vermont has delivered pa.
triotc speech in Congress, which is so unusual
there, in these days, that it is hailed BY his adj
mirers as n spark of Roman fire. The flame is
not wholly extinguished it but shoulders; this
spark shows that it yet burns, and great is the
joy and surprise at the discovery! Duringthe
long period of this war, a constant unvarying
series of measures have been going on, all tend
ing to a compromise, and seldom has warn
ing voice been raised against them. The Pres
ident looks to the people for guidance, and the
people look to the President TO take the lead.
The President strives TO End some middle
course between right and wrong; strives to
pursue the narrow line of middle courses amidst
the tempestuous agitations of a great moral
revolution; strives TO dance on the taut rope in
hurricane, and Congress sits and looks on
with a bosom ranking with all the lower and
more sordd motives that ever characterized
political action.
In the midst of political turpi,ude, selfish
ends and cold apathy, it is indeed gratifying to
see even a spark of patriotic fire. Now, when
the Vermont brigade is used up and its power
gone, which has hitherto doomed above the
storm like tower of confidence and strength
it is time, one would suppose, for Vermont
Senator to sound note of alarm. When meas
ures begin to draw to head, and show more
clearly the logical consequences to which the
executive measures for the last three years inc
vitality Iced, it is high time for statesman TO
give some evidence that he can read the signs
of the times.
But it is to be feared that the warning is too
late. Mere sound and fury will hardly induce
the snake to loosen his grasp when his folds
are already tightening around the victims pal
sled limbs. The fourth year of the war is
late period TO exhibit signs of alarm at words
of treason spoken in the Senate
But let US be thankful for any thing in the
right direction. It is useless to give Mr.. Foot's
speech. 1t has no points nor force. Suffice it
to say that it is the giving vent to pent up fire
which should have been directed in the chan
nels of practical and leading measures three
years ego. Of all delegations, that of Vermont
should have been the first to take the lead in
initiative measures
