The Union National Committee.

We have noticed the meeting of the
Union National Committee held at
7 Washington City few days ago. AL
most all the members were present;
and, after full interchange of views,
the following preamble and reselu-
lions were adopted, viz.
WHEREAS, The desertion by the
President of those whose generous
confidence placed him in high trust,
has brought the National Union par
ty into new and untried position at
time of great trial to the Govern
ment, thereby calling for the exercise
of the greatest vigilance, firmness and
patriotism on the part of those who
would uphold the principles and sus-
tain the measures which have carried
the nation through the war; therefore,
ResolUed, That the Executive Com
mittee be directed to makea thorough
organization for the future, to con-
firm the success of the past, and to
secure the fruits of our fairly won
triumph, and for that purpose they
may establish their headquarters in
the city of New York. 7appointeaA seq

with this Committee by addressing its
Chairman at headquarters, aforesaid

the state of the aforesaid localities,

COrnOrate P0WersIo f Bishns.

A Bill was introduced IN th Sen
ate, on Thursday, comforting upon
Bishops certain corporate powers, and
defding and limiting their rights,
powers, and duties. It gives hem the
power to hold land s. not exceeding
fifty acres for each separate ongrega=
ton in his diocese" and personal
property not exceeding in vahe $4,000.
The Bill gave rise to quie. an ami
mated discussion, bringing up as it
did the old question of til policy of
placing SO much power il the hands
of prelates, rather thn trustees
chosen by the congregation.
Mr.. Cullen, as a meGber of the
committee, could not agee with the
majority of the committe in recon-
mendlng the passage of this bill. 1t
was entirely wrong, aid the Senate
should not endorse theaction of the
COMMITTEES in their recommendation
While being in favor 0 religious toll
Grafton to the fullet extent, he
thought this bill was skiing far more
and higher privileges than is asked
by religious denominations who have
no bishops. The Law as it now is
gives privileges to Societies, religious
and otherwise; that places all sects
upon gu equality. But this bill pro-
poses different sytem-a system of
inequality-by clothing bishops with
the extraordinary privileges of "a cor
poration. He opposed all tendencies
to a Capitalization of power, for there
is nothing under Heaven SO well cal
iculated to upturp our tree of liberty.
3 MIR. Bennett should vote against
the passage of this bill on general
principles, and not because he opposed
the peculiar doctrines of the Catholic
Church, or because of his opposition
to the Democratic party, 4 He would
not pander to the peculiar doctrine Of
centralized power, so tenacieusly ad-
hered to by the Roman Catholics as a

JAMES B. Beck was nominated for
Congress inIthe Lexington Districtby

speech took the position that the only
place to fight Radicalism is in the
ranks Of the Democratic party, and
that in that party there should be no
tests based upon the issues of the
past. He regarded, all attempts to orr
ganize athird party as calculated only
to aid the Radicals. The following res

The Union Party Of Kentucky.

The result of the Senatorial contest
Tin the Kentucky Legislature demon
.strates the wisdom of the decision
made by the leaders of the genuine
Union party in that State to maintain
an independent organization. The
Conservatives (so-called) will not CO.
alesce with them either on terms of
equality or in any manner whereby
they can preserve their self-respect
and attachment to principle. There
may be practicable union between
the Conservatives and Rebel Democ-
racy, as was the case in the Senatorial
election, but the Union party in that
State have nothing to gain and much
to lose by entangling alliances. They
should, in every county, answer the
cali0of the Frankfort Union meeting,
and send delegates to the State Con-
yention, and go to work towards
systematic organization, even though
they may now be in a hopeless mi
nority. The day of final triumph is
not far in the future. The great Union
party which brought the country sue
cessfully through % the war of
the rebellion, will sustain the
loyal majority in Congress at
all hazards, and through every phase
of national politics; and in 1868, will
retrieve the disaster which followed
the assassination of ABRAHAM Linz
colin. The power and patronage Of
the Government will be retained in
the hands Of the party which now
supports Congress. The principles
of that party will ultimately preY1aliiIl,s
throughout the Nation, North aud
South. Its plan of reconstruction
will be enforced. supported as it will
be by every branch of the Govern
meht, - E . g e s 81
The party in Kentucky which re-
mains faithful ii its loyalty, will be
sustained by the Republican party OF
the North, and will in the end be sue
cessfull IF they boldly avow their
Union principles, and make a
thorough Organization in the APP
preaching campaign, they will gain
Itrength for the next, and be better
prepared for the great contest of 1868.
