peared quite complacent under notorious
ly severe strokes Of public rebuke. As It
became more and more obvious that the
Union party, in the East, would not be
d~isorganized on accoun Of any differences
large but temporary, or chronic but unes-
%sential, between the President and Con-
gress, the Pe.res had truly a dreadful
Fight Of affection but up to date it has
borne the burden of its modification
without striving to raising its voice above
the natural feebleness Of tone for which it
confesses itselfproverbisl. This morning,
however, 1t rufles its feathers and squawls
like q cat.bird. The fact that it had been
under the ban Of popular contempt from
the date Of its endeavor to pack the city
Convention, the fact that It was becoming
obvious that neither its nor any other and
more considerable influence could disrupt
our party, were torturing Developments,
which i. endured with scarcely percspsible
indication Of its torment; but when we
sum these and kindred facts to n de-
mopstrating conclusion; to-wit: that it
would be Of no earthly account, either
way, for the Cops to take its standing
offer of $1,000, to sell out what there
was of it for a campaign service, it fairly
yells with pain.
We are only concerned in noting its
spasms at this time, by reason Of their in
dicating more clearly than ever before, its
real object in denouncing the President,
and affecting such q radical fever Of mind.
In its intolerable evaporation, it explicitly
proclaims the intention to do all 1t can to
divide our party on the 4" issue" % which
is to consist, afirmatively, in yituperation
of the Chief Executive Of the Nation.
Violent, however, as are its throes, it man
ages to give additional illustrations Of its
method of Inconsistency" So the main
and ultimate purposes it has in view is
again exposed-that of destroying har-
mony in our ranks that it may prove Of
benefit to the Copperheads. Still It clings
to the hope. amid so many and great dis
couragements as have been noted, that It
may make a few pieces" out of the ODE
mocracy." A hint Of how it will COM
mence its night marches into the Copper
head ranks, is given in its now 6rst ex-
pressed slur Of Stevens and Sumner. In
the face of very binding extracts, which
we have recently made from leading
Union papers of the East, it shrieks out
that every Republican paper in the land is
ofits ilk and pattern! It does not heSi-
tate, in its hour Of madness, to thus SLAM
der the American Union press.
Among other funny exhibitions, this
morning, Of its nervous excitement, and
as a sample Misrepresentation, the News
is accused of speaking "fraternally" Of
McDougal and Salisbury. We never
mentioned Sa~ulsbury's name in our paper,
according to our recollection. We have
lately spoken, in terms Of admiration, Of
the conceded abilities Of McDousal, while
regre,ting his incorporate habits,
and alike deploring and denouncing
his renegade course on the Union is
sues during the war and since its
close. l. is notorious that we have no
f~raternizing sympashies or associations
with McDougal and Salisbury. And
equally, as an interchangeable matter Of
truth, may it be said, that if the two Sem
ators named, and the President himself,
had, since their accessions to their present
respective Offices, continually conducted
themselves in the style of low pot-house
drunkards, there is no paper published on
this continent to which they would have
so much right to look for "fraternal" sup
port as to the Virginia Daily Enterprise.
To ~paraphrase the language Of another:
we do not speak IN a manner other than
ought to be fully comprehended by our
contemporary acros, the Divide.
To our readers . in other counties, who
nigh, feel some alarm, lest the Pe-ree
should create a serious breach in the Union
party--.hey not approaching all the par
ticulars of the case-we would simply
say. land it will be full re-assurance,)
that it supported a ticket, backed by a
large amount Of money, at the last Pri-
mary election, in Virginia city; and there
were l5s votes cast for the ballots Of its
nomination to 465 ballots for the opposing
candidates. And of these 1913 votes, at
least so were Copperhead-played in on
the desperate occasion. Rest content in
the belief that the Union party Of Storey
will present a solid front to the enemy
next November; and only take it for
granted that the villi6cations Of the Pc
,cee will be directed to those quarters,
specially, where this consumation is most
devou,ly wished and most unequivocally
resolved upon.
