OF i,w extremists, who never hav- sGp-
parted the Administration except up"n
measures TO which they could hang their
peculiar creed. which w,rc rendered nee
essary by the eXigrncirs Of the war. The
Tribune is 10 more the exponent OF the
Union cause now, than wh"n it precipi-
taied the battle whichl-d to the disgraceful
defeat ut Bull Run. or when it advised
vigorous prosecution Of the war for the
period Of three mouths. and il the rebel
lion was not subdued within that time, to
throw ourselves upon the tender mercips
of the rebels, acknowledge defeat, and &C.
cept the best terms we could GIT. The
true Union strength has existed in the con-
sentative supporters of the Administration.
The history Of the past four years proves
this beyond question Of doubt. We have
time and again referred to facts as evidence
Of the policy of the Administration, and
we believe that common sense can draw
but one conclusion from them, that the
President was his own judge of the propri-
ETY. of his official acts. and that he haG no
sympathy with the facious radical cle-
ment, which insisted that the body polite
must swallow its prescriptions until results
which they desired should be accomplished
From June to September, 1864, the issue
was fairly made between this faction and
the Union party. and even the Democrat.
with all its bitter hatred, could not have
exhibited more malignant spleen tow ards
the Administration than did this self.
styled Radical Democracy. which met at
Cleveland and nominated the conccited
Fremont as a candidate for President. Is
it to be supposed for nm instant that this
course would have been pursued had they
any cause to believe that Mr.. Lincoln
would favor their notions of pr,pricty
We maintain that the sentiment OF the 10y
al conservative party was fi'ly repl ssrnted
at Baltimore, and that the nominations, as
we'll as the platform, indicate the true
status Of the Union party. The policy of
the President. after his second inaugnra-
tion. so far as it was developed, plainly
! foreshadows what it would hav. been had
he been permitted to have finished his plan
Of reconstruction. The radical press be-
traycd uurasinrss, and Wendell Phillips,
their champion. assumed grounds directly
antagonis'ic to Mr.. Lincoln's policy. upon
the recognition by Congress of the State
government of Louisiana. Tho "factious
opposi,ion." as Mr.. Trumbull termed it..
controlled by Mr.. Phillips. did finally de-
feat the bill. and by threats to defeat all
the important appropriation bile mccdfxl
for the support Of the Government and
carrying on the war. tits these radical
men who are harping upon civil. social
and political equality for the negro.
1t is not true that any respectable num-
Der Of men outside OF this "factious oppo-
sition." desire any such object as the result
OF the war. The Democrat is aware Of the
fact. bu, like a drowning man clutching
at s'raws. srizes upon the falsrhood to PER-
vert and misr-prrfent the position Of the
Union party aud i.s STANDARD bearer. Hon.
