A Foreign War a Necessity with the Radicals

In Congress resolution was offered and
considered, recommending the withdraw
OF the United States Minister from the
Cour of ST. James. This is a part of the
Radicals proceeding of that body which
porlends the great party. Those who sup
pert this ban,eriug conduct are the blatant,
bnt COW ardly New England followers.
They are, to a man, Radicals of the most
radical stamp; those who were The mos,
active in making the recent war war on
the Southern people !; those who were most
reluctant 10 have the armies disbanded last
Summer; those who are in favor of a
large Standing army OF 200 900 men, even
now; hose who voted in favor Of the reso-
luton of Mr. Williams, for keeping up large
military forces in all the Southern States :;
those who are the cbedient and blind fol-
lowers Of Sumner in the Senate. and Ste-
vens in The House, in the persistent attempts
made by those leaders 10 keep the South
out OF The UUion. Why do these men op-
pose the restoration OF the Union Why
are they so. opposed TO peace? Why are
they so enamored with state of war? Why
have they such an appetite for blood and
carnage! The reason is plain. The end
Of the war was the end of the Republican
party. While the war lasted, they could
maintain the mselvss ii power, through the
false bot specious plea of supporting the
Government" But they cannot support the
Government now that It's policy is peace.
The proclamation Of the President that the
war is over and the Union restored will be
the death-knell Of their parry. Their power
will be gone They see the hand writing on
the wall, and this is. the expedient that they
have devised to prevent the scepter of pow
er from slipping from their clutches. The
Jacobins o! the French Revolution plunged
France into war with all Europe Tor the
purpose Of retaining themselves in power,
and TO cover up their aIrocious crimes--
They dreaded The consequences of the ex
Posures that peace would bring. and there
lore kept the country in continual stale Of
war. The Summers, The Stevens, The Wades.
and The Schenks, of the present day are the
Robespierres, the Couihons, the Marats OF
this epoch. There are hundreds OF innocent
and patriotic citizens who have suffered long
and unjust imprisonment during the late
war, and who, on the reIurn of peace, will
seek redress in the courts OF law agains;
their oppressors- The latter lrembls at
this prospect, and would plunge the country
into a war, in order TO avoid il.
