PARTY TIES RELAXED. t
In the presence of new dangers party |
ties are relaxed Where they bind .
together it is rather from social affitia- |
ton than ihe power of political allegi- |
ance. From force of habit and personal |
association, we look to our old political |
leaders and comrades for guidance and |
counsel; but pass along the street, take !
the men as you meet them, listen TO |
their frank avowals. and you Will find i
that the old party discipline, which was !.
wont to marshal its hosts, like contend |
ing armies, is destroyed. Gather to- |
gether representative, Intelligent as-l
semblage like this, composed or Repub- |
licans and Democrats, poll it, and you
will find that on the living questions of
the hour, where there are differences Of
opinion. men no longer differ rs Demo- |
Gratis and Republicans, but rs men of iil- |
dependent convictions; and those who
prefer to remain With old organizations
simply feel that for the present there is
nowhere else TO go, and hope to accom-
plish new purposes with old forms.
This is not a local, but a general truth,

meaning have gone.
REASONS FOR DIsINTEGRATIoN.
1t is natural under circumstances like
these that men who believe that politi-
cal parties are simply interpretations for
the purpose OF paying salaries to direc-
tors and dividing offices among stock
holders, should begin TO inquire, What
: man hath done this2n and to look about
| for some victim for their imDotent
| wrath. Sir, no man hath done it. They
might as we'll seek for the hunter who
| built his campfire on the upper MissiS-.
| sippi to account for the ice-gorge that
comes crashing and grinding down in a
Spring Hood after an April thaw. There
are moral forces in society which can no
more be controlled by conventions and
resolutions than the tempest can be
| stayed by a proclamation of peace.
While parties sincerely represent differ
/ ences~Of opinion upon great and living
political questions; while they continue
| the outward embodiments of principles,
! the representatives of ideas; while they
are forces moving openly to the accom-
4 plishment of given result, they may
lerr, may be wrong, but they will live.6
No desertion of leaders, no betrayal of
principles can destroy them or percepti-
" l
cease to be these things, and become "a
pipe for fortunes finger to sound what
stop she please'' on, no man, though he
combined in one the leadership of
Clay, the eloquence of Webster, the iron
will of Jackson, the philosophical pre-
Il science of Jefferson, and the moral
weight of Washington, can hold them to-
gether. An agreement of purpose--gen-
cohesion as is the law of orayit:,tion tn
