The Political Aanact.


just now the attention Of all persons who
feel an interest In the future Of this country
"a being riveted to events TRANSPORTING in the
Northern States. No sane man, it seems,
can fail to understand that great political
struggle is going on, one which many per-
sons believe win end IN blood-shed and reyo-
luton Indeed the leaders of both the radi-
cal and conservative parties, are continually
assuring the masses that war is inevitable
This is deplorablo, to say the least of it; but
how is the war to be brought about, and
who is to strike the first blow2 IF we be-,
lioye what the radicals say, the conservative
clement, headed by Andrew Johnson, will be
the first to strike If we believe the conser-
vaties, the radical party, headed by the arch
traitor, Stevens, and backed by a Rump Con-
gress, viii be the aggressors. Our humble
opinion is this The northern States, at least
a great majority Of them, win 90 against the
policy Of Andrew johnson; that they will
return to Congress q full two-thirds majority,
that they will insist on keeping the late slave
States out Of the Union that the congress
men elect from the excluded States, and
those of a conservative persuasion from the
northern States viii unite and, thus form
majority of all the members Of congress
elect; that President johnson viii transmit
his message to that body and recognize them
as the constitutional congress; that the nil
nOrity, or the radical party win endeavOr to
persuade the people that they are the true
law makers of the land, and refuse to sane
ton what Mr. Johnson does in discharging
his sworn duty; that they viii be foolish
enough to attempt to sustain themselves by
the force of arms and that they viii be the
worst whipped set of traitors and usurpers
that ever disgraced any portion of the in
habitable globe. War is a terrible thing
butitis often unavoidable, and is forced upon
those who shudder at its very mention by
the recklessnes Of miserable tricksters who
take good care to keep their bodies at a safe
distance from the field Of strife. The South
does not desire another contest at. arms
she did not provoke the fr one and is 10th
now to part with what little hopes she has
of peace, but if the mad and wicked spirit
of radicalism continues to strike blow after
Low at the only foundation the American
people have of safety in the future, she will be
found standing by the side Of the great con
stitutional party that is now endeavoring to
save the country from utter ruin.

TIoN.-An editorial in the New York Iri-
bune OF Friday says:
Does A. W. Randall, Postmastor-G Gene
raj, remember a recent conversation he had
with u prominent Union man Of this State g.:
Does he remember that he explicitly
threatened civil war unless the Union ma
jority yielded to the policy OF the Presi-
dent! Does he remember his threat that,
1t Its opposition continued, the President
would recognize the minority Of Congress
and the Southern claimants OF seats as the
true Congress! Does he remember thai
he asserted the President would maintain
the authority Of this false Congress by
force?
Mr.. Randall is now a member Of the
Cabinet one Of the Presidents advisers.
When the Philadelphia Convention meets
he may take the opportunity TO repeat
these rebel threats more putlicly-or to
deny them.
