A Declaration Of War.

The Independent of this week comes
out square-footed against the President,
and thre atens both him and the country
with all sorts of calamities unless he
adopts the views of the radicals. We
quote from the Independent:
Against the Judgement or some adv'a-
ers (whose Judgment, we hope, will prove
better than our OWN, we feel constrained
to put our hand to the rope and ring the
alarm-bell-arousiDg the Party OF Justice
to the perils of the hour. Not that rad
ical men are forced, as yet Ia re 'gn
their much-abused good hope, OF the
President. But our first allegiaaca j. to
Principal, not TO Party
The reports from Washington,
which purport to speak for the Presi
dents miud aud meaning. are so numer-
ous and contradictory that they devour
each other like the omniverous kilograms
to the Philadelphia papers during the
war. For instance, within the same
hour, two distinguished Republicans
called at our office, one to say The Pres
ident is lost, aud the Government Is ~
lerized;" and the other, The President
is safe, and the Democratic party has the
fish ,rman's net around its gills' BE
tween these two opinions we are entl-
tied to our own; which is, that Il Presi'
dent ofthe United States who stands III
so equiyocal position ought to receive,
not the Joint praise of:the two parties,
but the Just rebuke of both Aheady
the question is arising whether there
shall be reorganization of politics, with
a view to making the next President al
discussion bear more directly and grand
ly on those great moral ideas which the
present Republican management seems
willing to ignore The necessity for tax
ing such a step will be more or less ap-
parent after the President shall publish
a message, and Congress shall re-inherit
a tongue. But the Republican party to
day includes so large body of men who
belong to it for no other reason than OF
principle, and for no other interest than
their country that they '0iH not sgge,
sach a party to outrage Human Rights tcih
impunity. As these same earnest men hare
aforetinie shaken the nation, they haze poe
er. to shake 1t again If the debasing
counsels which we have already heard
from certain Republican, Leaders are to be
adopted as the convenient morals OF that
party, the time is at hand for taking out
the sound timber from the house, and leav-
ing the rotten to perish by itself"
Supported by the united democracy
the President can we'll afford TO say tobi'
secret and open adversaries Go in gen
tlemen; fight it out, and may the quar-
rel end as did the combat in Kilkenny.
