CHANGED THEIR NAME AGAIN,

1t will be seen, by the call which we pub
llsh below, that the party in opposition to
the democracy have changed their name
again-they have dropped the Union" and
gone back to their old name of republican,.
This releases the democrats who have been
voting with that party for u few years back,
and we presume they will now act again
with their old political friends Quite
number of men have voted with that party,
for few years past, who insisted that they
were still democrats but did not wish to
draw party lines during the war! that they
were not republicans or negro-sufrage men,
but were democrats and should act with the
democratic party as soon as the war was over
and old party lines drawn again. The war
is over and the republicans have dropped the
Union" and now draw party lines again
and go for universal negro suffrage and ne
gro equality. OF course all these men who
really are democrats in principle and who
wish to carry out their principles and sustain
the administration OF President johnson, will
now act with the democratic union admins.

SYMPTOMS Of THE RESULT OF THE FALL
ELECTIoSs.--As affairs look now, there is
every Likelihood that there will be a greater
revolution in the central states ut the next
elections han there was in 1862, when these
states went against Mr.. Lincoln on the ground
OF alleged indecision in his war policy. The
change will be all the other way now. The
course of Andy johnson will. ia all proba-
bility, he sustained by all the central ard
northern states, even including Maine, thus
leaving New England with the Jingle ex-
ception of Maine-out in the cold. We
should not be surprised to see such result
at the fall elections, in which event the ia
COLLINS will be bowling in outer darkness

The FOURTH OF MARrH.-While near

TIE FOURTH OF MARrH.-While nearly
every city of any size in the North celebrated
the reinstatement of the Old Flag on the walls
of Sumter, yesterday, st. Paul-didn't. That
expresses it exactly. Not gun was fired
nary speech was made-not a nag was to be
seen, not even on the Capitol, (whsre it has
foated every week day for the last sixty days,
except on Washingtons Birthday, excepting
one, and that fioated gayly over the Hook and
Ladder house on Wabashaw street. Not
building was Illuminated in the entire city, as
we could learn, excepting the Office OF the
Telegraph Company, where our genial friend
Squires holds forth. We record with pleasure
that the Hook and Ladder boys added their
flag to the number that were to-day flung
to the breeze in other parts of the
country in honor of the fall of Fort
Sumter. We always knew that the
H. g. L. boys were sound and now we spy it.
We always had our doubts about the genuine
ness of the patriotism which slips 90 glibly
from the tongues of many of our government
officials in this city, and now we-can't see it
shame! shame! SHAME! Gentlemen
hadn't you no regard even for old Abe's feel
ings, or did you forget his reinauguration, or
is it possible that you have received intima-
lions that you will soon be numbered among
the "outs?"
Our friend squires done the thing up hand
sonely. The numerous windows in his Office
were gsyly Illuminated, making fine appear
ance from the street. From one of the win
dows also we noticed transparency. On one
side the motto
Sumter-Bully for Sherman"
And on the reverse
St. Paul Fizzled.'
Well we are glad there is one patriotic man
in st. Paul.

RsoRUIriNa.-The number of enlist
ments are decreasing instead of increasing.
Capt. Keith's Office Tuesday could aptly be
described by one who has heretofore witnessed
the crowds that there did congregate by quot
ing the familiar extract, II feel like one who
treads alone some banquet hall deserted, whose
lights have fled whose garlands dead, and all
but me departed" We look in vain for the
anxious, pushing, showing, swearing crowd we
were wont to see filling the halls leading to No.
16, where the Board of Enrolment used to sit
in awful majesty. The august members of said
Board have taken up the sad lament, "Othello's
occupation is gone. No trembling candidate for
exemption presents himself for examination.
No anxious candidate for high bounties as sub
stitue presents himself as specimen of the
model artist to the gaze of those who delight
in studying the "human form divine" as ex-
hibited in provost marshals Office. Times
