Soon after the publication of "Uncle Toms
Cabin" had made the name of its author IA
miliar to all the English-speaking world, Mrs.
Stowe visited England, and was the recipient
of much attention from all quarters. One
English paper, speaking of her and of her
book expressed incidentally some curiosity
to know whether there was ANY Mr. Beecher

be. We do not know whether 1t has ever oc-

city on account OF his political opinions.
Afterwards in Berlin he edited a journal
which was suppressed on account Of its liberal

An English writer in speaking of America
says, -'There is a great discrepancy between
the actual condition and a pure and noble
theory of society,"" and there is truth in the
assertion. America has not yet attained to
her grand ideal of republican government.
But she is rising to the level of her highest
conceptions Of truth AMI freedom; and in all
her career of development there never was
time fraught with such momentous issues
as the present. Freed from our great sin, the
nation is now awakening TO new life. 1t
is becoming more truly nation. A new
unity of spirit is taking the place OF the dead
unity of organization. Political science, SO
long robbed of its true dignity and power,
is ceasing to be mere game, played by DEM
agogues and partisans, and the people are be-
ginning to call their best men into the ser
vice Of the country. But more significant
than all the reforms of the day, either poll
tical or social, is that great national move
ment, which will give every man, of whatever
race and of whatever color, everywhere un-
der this free government, equal political
rights. A new moral power is at work in
society, establishing new principles OF action,
bringing evil out Of its secret places, break
ing down old forms OF error and giving new
direction to thought; and hence this spirit of
extreme radicalism, that is introducing into
| politics questions of moral nature and
breaking up into factions the great loyal party
| of the country.
But In the words OF one whose memory is
| hallowed in our hearts, let as be rery sober
There are yet mighty issues at stake, moment
GUS questions still awaiting final adjustment
| and critical hour is approaching; an hour
that will demand of the people such sound
ness of judgment, such firm adherence to
principle, such unity of action, as will prob
ably never be needed again. All narrow
sectional views and inexpedient measures
every thing that will tend TO disunion in the
ranks of the loyal party, will endanger the
| well-being of American society.
"Let lis be very SOBER" Let not the clouds
that now hang above our financial and indus.
The Portland daily press., 1868-01-30

trial affairs, blind the vision TO broad views
beyond. Let all pet schemes of philanthropy,
all minor consider ations Of person OF party,
the separate interests of towa or state, all be
forgotten in concern for the national fate,
the national welfare. And if we enter into
the contest with this singleness Of purpose,
this purity of aim, there is little danger but
that we shall pass sefely through the ordeal /,
and place the country in such position that
1t will be secure from the assaults OF It's bit
terest foes and its most misguided friends.
