Year: 1860

We are rejoiced to announce that, since the grand
" bust up Of the Democratic party, the prospects
for the triumphant election of Bell and Everett have
Frightened most goriously and rapidly. We have
entire confidence that the conservative Democrats,
North and South, will rally zealousy and unitedly
TO the support Of the only national ticket in the field
the Constitutional Union ticket of Bell and Ever
EFT As significant and thrilling indication that
the popular tide North and South is setting in in
favor OF Bell and Everett we point to the cheering
fact that Il Philadelphia Monitor, old and able
Democratic paper has come out for the Constitu-
tional Uuon candidates. and will battle nobly for
their election. We subjoin the following extracts
from its last ISSUE and comment their patriotic tone
to the moderate and conservative Democrats of Vir
ginia and of the South, and of the whole Union.
Hear the Monitor:


"Whilst there is still union of States, ii is in
cumbent on every loyal and patriotic citizen to ad
here to n National Party. There is now only one
such party remaining. The Democratic party is
rupturcd into sectional moities. We step from a
sundered organization to the pla tform of {" THE
UNIoN--TuE CoNsTITUTIoN--AND THE ENFORCEMENT
OF THE LAWS. >" When this fails us-when this
too shall be riven in twan--and there shall be no
other alternative-we must, per force, make choice
between the sections


We are lifelong Democrats; neScrtheless ace are
wilng 10 enlist under the banner qf Bell and Evereh
pho hare been Wings and Americans We enlist not
as Wings and Americans but as Constitutional Union
soldiers The banner is embazoued with the motto
of the CONSTITUTION AND THE UNION, and it floats
upon the breeze in every State. We follow that
banner Its bearers are statesmen; renowned
throughout the word-renowned for their virtues
for their intellectual endowments, for their long
perence in public affairs and for their public servi
ces as Governors, as Senator'S Cabinet Ministers
and Diplomatsts


"The Northern adherents of the Sectional South
ern Democratic candidate for the Presidency will
vote for Bell and Everett in preference to the Nor
thern Sectional Democratic candidate and the South
the adherents of the latter will do the same thing.
The party is torn to pieces BY the dssensions of its
ambitious leaders, who have usurped the powers
belonging of right to the people But now the
People will be reused, ard they will rescue their
priceless heritage from the peril into which it has
fallen from misplaced confidence in the capacity
and fidelity of the custodians to whom it has been
entrusted. Bell and Everett wiH speep The South
from one end 10 the other; and if the hitherto
seryative people of the North are false 10 the
obligations of duty and patriotism, and not blind to
every consideration of interest--both national and
individual--they will carry New Jersay Pennsyva-
MIA New York. and at least half of the New Eng
land Statcs Awake arise OF be forever fallen
Sound the trumpet-beat the drumming the bell
and rally the masses North and South, East and
West to the rescue Of The Union in the sacred name
of Washington and the Constitution
