A Harp of One String.

All have heard Of the harp of a thousand strings,
but the Democrat plays on one with only single
=tring-negro suffrage. 1t seems TO think or iu-
dulges the hope that because there is not an entire
unity of sentiment among Republicans on this
subject it can succeed BY vigorous nipping and
pulling of its one s;ringed instrument in dividing
and conQuering them. II might succeed to some
extent were it not for the Infamous record OF the
Copperhead purity and the great d,nger, should it
ever obtain power again of its betrayng the coun-
try second time, rs it did under Buchinnn's ad
ministration, or Of its assuming the Confederate
war debt and pensoning the wounied rebel soldier:
and the widows ana orphans OF those who fell oil
died in the service. These considerations will de
ter all good Union men, however much they differ
about the policy of enfranchising the negro, from
contributing directly indirectly to the success of
the CopperEead party. Good men may differ
about the policy of giving the negro the ballot, bu
about the great danger of putting the rens OF Coy
ernmeut into the hands of its enemies, OF men WHIT
reoiced during the recent struggle between aristo
Gratis and true democrats, when the armies OF tn,
latter were defeated and mourned when they were
victorious, there can be no difference of opinion
and all men who love their country had just as
soon vete for JEFF Davis himself as one of his ad
mrers.
At present the question of enfranchisng the
negro is not in issue, in this State, and what the
sentiments os the great body OF the Union men
in regard to it may be We cannot say, a. we have
heard very few express their views upon the sub
ject. But shouldit become necessary hereafter for
Union men in their State Conventions to decl rC
for or against the policy, as the logic of event:
may render necessary, there will, we assure the
Democrat, be no division among Union men, fol
the reasons above given. So it may as well cease
picking at its harp of one string.

The word democracy" as defined is a govern
ment by the people. Modern democracy, howev-
er, has invented a new method. For years they
have declared in favor of state rights and
against national interference in the authority
oil the several states. To accommodate them the
state of Maryland, in its new constitution, pre-
scribes stringent oath ofloyalty to be taken by
every voter This is a state act, approved and
endorsed by majority of the legal voters of that
state, and according to modern democracy should
be sound law and doctrine. But the first to op-
pose it, and declare it unconstitutional" are the
advocates of modern democracy. They have
threatened, if the law is enforced, to carry it to
the Supreme Court Of the United States and test
its legality. What a spectacle. resisting the
authority which it has endeavored through much
tribuaton to establish; and in order to do il
successfully, appealing to the authority which it
has altogether ignored. But there is another
feature. They have asserted that our soldiers
going through another state, in defence OF the
national government should do it at the peril OF
their lives. Sucn al act in their estimation. wa,
the forfeiture Of every obligation due to him from
his own state. Their ansthemas against such
need no repetition. They are remembered. But
what may now be witnessed every day7 Our
brave veterans have every honor accorded them by
their late vili6ers. The recent democratic con-
yention Of the state of New York, held in Albany
last week, surrendered to their old foe, the
abolitionists. Hardly /. resolution endorsed by
them can be complained of by loyal man. The
reason of this whiting is apparens. They believe
in betting the whining horse. Modern dem
ocracy, however, must have thorough overhaul
ing before loyal men will trust themselves on is
timbers. Their recent acknowledgements show
that they were wrong. house built on rock is
preferable to one on the sand. The Union men
may congratulate themselves, that they have won
such concession from their opponents, and press
on in the good work now before them.

place. There will be undoubtedly a large atten-
dance, though much smaller than if the whole peo
pie had been invited to participate in the prepare
tons for, and festivities Of the occasion, instead Of
one political party only.-Denoeraf, 18th.
We differ in opinion slightly with the Democrat
in regard to the attendance had the Copperheads
been invited to participate in the preparations.
Such an arrangement, like the attempt to celebrate
the 4,h Of July BY both parties, would have proved
a miserable failure. Not one soldier in ten that
did attend would have done so had the Cops parti-

should want to honor men who fought in the late
