State are sorely troubled with thinking OF
the terrible evils of war They have no
heart to stand by the Government to the eX-
tent of offering any opposition to the re-
bellion, for they say that jefferson d. will
fight dreadfully if he once gets started, and
that start he will, if he is molested in his
peaceable efforts to overthrow our govern
ment. They think the slave States VIA all
Join the Southern Conlederacy, and that it
will be far better to let them 20 than to offer
any forcible opposition. They mock ct the
idea that rebellion can be put down, and
yet they think it an easy matter to put down
the Government. When Maryland shall have
been dragged into the Southern Confederacy
movement, the rebels are determined she
shall be if possible, where will be the Ma
tional Capital; where the public archives;
and where the Presidential Mansion? viii
the Secessionists in California dare to say
that the independence Of the then revolted
States ought to be Immediately recognized
and the Federal property within their borl-
ers surrendered into their possession? Shall
revolution not only be yielded to without
struggle, but shall the District Of Columbia
"reyert" to the State of Maryland, as it is
pretended the location of Fort Sumter re-
velted to South Carolina And shall such
an overthrow of the National Government,
and 4hc surrender TO the rebels of the Federal
Capital, be insultngly termed "peaceab]e
seperation"? Why, the Legitimacy of the
nation goes with its capital Whenever the
United States Government is dislodged from
the National Capital, in order to give room
for the spread Of Southern Coufederaey"
over all the slave States, no American will
pretend that his Government has longer an
existence. When the Chief Executive of the
Nation is put to flight, and compelled to
search for an abode other than Washington
we hope the two oceans may embrace each
other over the scene of such disgrace.
PARRY soon, that is in a year or SO, the
people will be called upon to bear the ex-
penses Of the war Taxation will be resorted
to, and the substance of the people will be
thus eaten up in support Of the war.-E.c-

As far as we have got, the substance of the

zealously as though he was the occupant of

We are sorry for the man who cannot forget
partizan animosites long enough to acknowl
edge the patriotism ola great Statesman Of a
different political faith. The great Webster
stood by the Administration of Andrew
Jackson during the notification troubles. and
was never taunted by Administration organs
with having been defeated in any political
aspiration. The party friends Of the Appeal
do not generally speak sneeringly of Mr..
Douglas, nor of his fiery addresses at Spring.

people do not devote much time now to dis
cussng the politics Of the last campaign so
far as regards the friends of the Government.


The party friends of those patriots who
have been tormentng the President for
spoils for two months past thereby distracting |
his attention at times from the great bus
ness Of preserving the Government, ought
not to dwell too much, either, upon the lust
for Office, at this particular time. We know
ofno Democrat (unless Stevens is one) who
has been greedy for Office" to the extent of
endeavorng to interfere in any way with
the Federal patronages. The Republicans
are now luXuriating in Government places,
and the more Democrats there are in Cali
fornia who will stand by the Government,
without hope of reward, the easier will it be
for the Federal officials to hold their places
IN the event Of revolutionary tumults.
