That question is now mooted in certain circle,

will be two sides to it. There are on all other
important subjects.

Of one thing we are certain, however, dancing or

t3P We copy the following from the Indiana
polis Journal, with a few plight alterations and
additions.
Keep It Ilefore Ilie People
That the I)!sunioni.ts in the North represented
by the Indiana State Journal, the New
York Tribune, the Cincinnati Commercial,
aud similar prints, that after the election of .Mr.
Lixcolm earnestly adrocated the policy of
Utting all the States which desired to leave
the Union, go in peace, are the greatest fools
living. If the people of the North are disgraced
and beaten in this contest the dishonor will (all
upon them and their children, as well as upon
tho who are loyal. If the Union is dissolved,
the Government goes to pieces, society broken
up, and pmpriT becomes depreciated and worth
less, th misfortune falls upon them as well as
others. The poor fools, because they succeeded
in the last Presidential election, and to spite the
Democrats, are willing to ruin the Coernment.
sacrifice themselves, and become forever disgra
ced before the uorld. History will write them
down as the greatest fools of this or any oilier
in the Senateon the 3d of Jsnoary, lcCl, which in
unmistakable language fixes the responsibility
for this terrible civil war and for all the evils
which have visited the nation and which will yet
result from it. Said Dot glas, and we desire to
call the attention of Republicans who profess to
sympathize with that eminent statesman, in refer
ring to a proposition for conciliation which he
had himself intrvd jced:
"I believe this to be a fair basis of amicable
adjustment. If you of the Republican side are
not willing to accept this, nor'the proportion of
the Senator from Kentucky Mr. Critteudeii.
rrav tell us what tou are willing to do.
"I address the inquiry to Republicans alone,
for the reason that in the Committee of Thirteen,
a few days ago, every member from the Sooth,
including tWe from the cotton States (Menrs.
Toombs and Davis) expr-scd their readiness to
accept the proposition of my venerable friend
from Kentucky Mr. Crittenden as a filial settle
ment of the controversy, if intended and ftis
Ulned by Republican members.
Hence, the sole responsibility of our disagree
ment, and the only difficulty in the way of an
amicable adjustment, is with the Republican
party."
Matk the language: "The tole responsibility
of our disagreement, and the only difficulty in the
tray of amicable adjustment, it xeith the Repub
lican party."
Keep tlioe facts before the people. Tbey
should be mounded in the ears of every man,
woman und child in the land ujm whom the
consequences of this war fall with crushing
weight.
e, re. -
Jveep it before the people, that the Indiana
State Journal, Cincinnati Cazrtte, Chicago Tri
bune, and New York Tribune, are regarded by
thetoyal men of Tennessee as treasontble papers.
That one of the ablest of the anti-slavery party
laUly declared, n a public speech, that "the
ami slavery party had hoped for and jJmned dis
union, because it would lead to th development
of mankind and the elevation of tin black man."
That Governor Joiinsom, of that State, has kus
peuded the Nashville Manner for republishing
extracts from them, such extracts being justly
regarded as treasonable and pernicious, and fur
nishing direct aid and comfort to rebels in arms
against their country. How long, oh, how long,
will loyal people forbear und continue to tolerate
this rebel pestilence in their midst?
Keep it lefore the i-eople, that the disunion
sympathizers in our umist have but one cry,
which is, ".' the poor negro." Tint they hare
but Mie duty, which is, "the enfranchisement of
the nero, placing him in the same political and
H-iil status s the white citieu, n mit tor whit
the sacrifice to the white man." For the Moi d
of our sons, which is slml by this iiitcrn.il rebel
lion, they have no tears to shed.
Fr the violation of the Constitution by the
men, who hoped for and flinned disunion tr the
liberation and elevation of the black man to over
turn both Ccnstitiitlon uitd Government, thev
have no word of censure, no tear to hed for the
immense sacrifice uf tre.isure and property ; Ir
tho loss of fathers, sons v.iA brothers; for the
agony of mother; the imirt lending oistie.-s
brought to families and friends, they hie t.o
tear to shed. Their tears and lamentation are
all re.-erved for the "poor urro." Their papers,
their peeches, their letters and conversation
are burdened with grief, and moistened with tears
for fear that the nero may not be mule the !
CerUin irotninent Republicans were list week
busily circulating throughout our community pe
titions for a "Union" State Convention, to be
held in a month or two, at Indianapolis, for the
nomination of State officers. This is a pure Re
publican dodge too flimsy and transparent to de
ceive Democrats, who a ill treat with scorn any
attempt of these schemers to draw them at this
crisis from their allegiance to the only organiza
tion which give a hoe of reconstructing the
Union as it was given to us and of perpetuating
the Constitution us our fathers made it.
It is the b:i?et id" frauds for the Republican
leaders to attempt to arrogate to themselves the
claim of lovers of the union, when we reJlect
that every step thev hive made since the rebel
lion beg in has been in violation of the Constitu
tion and laws. The party which has trampled
upon the sacred writ of habeas corpus muzzled
the press of the country denied the rieht of free
speech incarcerated in loathsome prisons, at the
will of one man, innocent parties, and denied
them the right of defense before the Courts
of their country recognized the principle of
secession in allowing a lew counties in Virginia
to send up men to Congress claiming to net lor
the whole State in assuming the right to ap
point a rrovi-ional Governor for another State,
therebv overturning the whole in ichinci v of State
right, and which State, according to their own
admissions, is still one of the sisterhood of the
Union in passing bills, by a "rump Congress,
declared by the conservative members to be un-cons-itutiorml
we my a purlv which commits
thce and a thousand other outrages, can lay no
claim to the title of "Union" pirtv. and the
dodges thev are now resorting to, in the hope of
catching in their me? lies the true lovers of the
codntry, will snire-ly not avail them.
It is well for Republican to change their tac
tics to endeavor to conceal their tint en foot
under a false ilNiruisu. Thev feel self coiideined
for the present unh ippv condition of the countrv
thev know that thev never dare again to raise
their cetion il banner, under their rrnl color:
that their only how of safety from being utterly
swept from the face of the earth depends upon
their success with the gull trap of "Union" con-
c ntions.
W urge the Democracy of the countrv to give
these counterfeit "unionists a wide berth they
do not want to se? the Union restored as it was.
and some of their leaders in Congress have the
honesty to publicly proclaim it their whole eon-
duct chows it. If our countrv is ever caved, the
Union and Constitution preserved, it must be
done by the Democratic party it is in earnest
in the prayer and hope that these blessings may
be eventually vouchsafed to our unhappy anl Ui
vided ieotle'. Democrats have been scornfully
stigmatized by their political opponents as
"Union savers," and. God willing, they intend to
deserve the name. Not a Democratic statesman
nor k Heinocruiic editor has failed throughout
our present troubles to pray for the consuniina
tion of these ends, and hence thev have persist
ently opiosed thealolition, em mcipation schemes
of the Republicans, whose whole tendency has
been to render the possibility of saving the Union
less remote. I he Democrats, in the trills ol legis
lation and on the field of battle fiht for the old Con
slit Jtion, and for this purpose they at t thoroughly
organizing throughout everv State, emblaz
oning ujnui their banners "the Constitution of
our Fathers it is with th;s feeling that they
chould and will reject all overtures of the Repub
licans to unite in a call for a "Union" Conven
tion, in which the Republicans are to hold the
leading string and Republican are alone to be
benefitted. O'ir Statt Convention Ins laid down
a patriotic, noble platform, upon which every
true American may consistently stand. It is
therein proclaimed that "we are uniltcrahly at
tached to the Constitution by which the Union of
these States was formed;" tint "we are utterly
opposed to the twin heresies, Northern sectional
ism and Southern socessioni-m;" that "we will
sustain w ith all our energies', a w ar lor the main
tenance of the Constitution and of the integrity
of the Union, under the Constitutum."
These are the current principles this is the
correct doctrine. This is the platform upon
which the people of the country will sooner or
later rally, in spite of the hypocritical endeavors
of broken down Republican leader to get up
what they fal-ely style a "Union" Contention.

Abolition of Slinrrj in Waitiinlon.
The President ha cined the bill abolishing
slavery in the D.stiict of Columbia.
We look upon this measure as one of the most
inipoit iut eer passed by Congress. It involves
vital interests to the Union. Under the compro
mise act of it wa fairly understood that
slavery in the District of Columbia, surrounded
by slave States, chould not be alolihed.
It w hs here that the Abolitionist legan the'r
woik, years ago, which has terminated in our
present grieou troubles. Here the Southern
mind lvame restive under the Abolition attacks;
and the final consummation uf the act so long
and persistently pre-sed by the Abolitionists, will
a-id a very gret obstacle to the diiliou'.tie which
must necessarily attend the efforts to secure a
final settlement alter the Southern rmie are de
feated. It will strengthen the disunion sentiment
at the South, at a time when the general meas
ures of tlo eminent should be so directed as to
weaken secession and add to the moral power uf
the Unioni-ls.
It t!;e Pies'.dent really inricipates a settlement,

laws in iv he eecu:ed 'ill over the South on the
etjuil of the ahitenuu in the proresrof thi war. strength of the public s:it;u:ent, and with nit the
ak tint an Abolition act shall not be parsed. It
Is true, there are men at the South dissolution
ist at heart, uncomrromi-inglv so whose feel
ings are not to be regarded. Rut still, it is im
portant, if our Union is really to be preserved,
to iropres upon the minds of the people of the
South tho.e who are not uncomprotn'singljr dis
solutior.tsts the fact, if it is a fact, that this is
not an Abolition war. The majority of the
Southern people must act with us as friends
tley mut protect the execution of the laws, as
we do at the North. Otherwise a vast standing
army mut be kept in all the Southern States to
protect the mails, the custom-houses and the
United States Courts. It is no settlement of dif
ficulties to defeat the secession armies. Unless a
majority of the people at the .South are willing
to come back to the Union to elect members to
the Federal Congress, to sustain the Federal
Courts, we shall have no Union.
And how long can the North support an army
at the South, large enough to keep an unfriendly
people in subjection to the constitutional law?
Not long. In this view of the case, we look
upon the late Abolition act as fraught with con
scquen?es of vast evil. Indeed, we hope and
trust that the Administration does not already
contemplate a separation of even the cotton
State, from the old Union. Let us sustain the
Union as it was all parts are essential to the
great prosperity we have witnessed in past years
essential, too, for the glory and power of the
Republic.

he untrue and deplorable. There is no province
in the world, conquered and held by military
force, that is not u weakness to its master. Many
of the English colonics have drained England of
her wealth. The English people are now eaten
up with taxation to hold distant possessions in
military subjection and carry on her world wide
svstem of fillibustering, which has for centuries
been a national passion. The wars which are
visited upon her in her monstrous national debt
were occasioned by the pride of her aristocracy
and the intrigues of her politicians, and w ere not,
with an exception or two, in the interest of her
people. India, upon which che has lavished her
strength, and which ts the most magnificent tro
phy of w.irs of conquest held by any nation, is
an incumbernnce to her to-day. Algiers is a
costly and unprofitable appendage of France.
Vrnetia is the weak spot of Austria, and the
life's blood of the empire is drained to hold that
territory, which is nbs Mutely worthless to the
Austrian and fetters her armies in the quaurilat
eral. The history of the world certainly proves
that it is not profitable to govern a people without
their consent.

TIIF. COMMtUCIAL AOVISL.S THE RECOGNITION OF
THE SOUTH.
From the Commercial, Editorial.
We are not in favor of blockading the South
cm coast. We are not favor of retaking, by
force, the property of the United States now in
possession of the Sece lers. We would recognize
the existence of a Government formed of all the
seceding State, and attempt to cultivate amica
ble relations with it.
Thee extract, be it remembered, appeared
in the Commercial after seven of the Southern
States had seceded ; after United States forts had
been taken by them; after the national flag h id
been hauled down and another substituted; after
a Southern army had gathered to attack Fort
Sumter; and even after the Confederate Govern
ment had been organized, and Jeff. Davis elected
President of the Southern Confederacy. Even
then the Commercial had no desire to hold the
Union together by force; was "not in favor of
blockading the Southern coast;" "not in favor of
retaking, by force, the property of the United
States, then in possession of the seceders;" but,
on the contrary, "would recognize the existence
of a Covern ment formet! of all the seceding
States, and attempt to cultivate amicable rela
tion with it." If ever there was a paper which
urged the Southern oople to take the very po
sition which they have now assumod urged
them to cut loose from the Union, and form a
Government of their own which exhibited the
impossibility of the Federal Government subjuga
tinir the seceded States that naner was the

known were itsloe for the "almighty dollar '

the inconsistency exhibited between its past and

The capture of New Orleans by the Govern
ment forces has reached us through rebel sources,
and is no doubt correct, as it is not possible the
rebel papers would publish news so utterly disas
trous to their cause if it had cot taken place. So
all the rebel strongholds in the valley of the Mis
sissippi have beth outflanked, and very soon the
river will be again open to the Gulf. This news
of the occupation ol Xew Orleans by our forces
had a mot cheering influence on the public mind
generally, and stock and Government securities

The views of holders of provisions have also
been stiffened by the news, and the hope of a

The weather has been, on the whole, unfavor
able for the spring work of the farmers. A large
amount of rain fell, with a chilly atmosphere the
greater portion of the week. Sunday and Mon
day it was rather warm and spring like, but be
came cool again yesterday. There was some
light frosts two or three nights, but not enough
to damage the fruit. Spring sowing is verv back
ward, and according to the advices fron the
northwest, there has been very little fpring wheat
sown and it is state! that it is now too late to
sow it, that after April is passed, if sown it would
not mature. The loss of the spring wheat crop
would be a serious loss to the West, as the great
bulk of the wheat raised in Illinois, Iowa, and
Wisconsin is of this kind. The ceison may be
of such a character, however, as will mature
that sown in the last week of April, or the first
week of May. The oat crop w ill be short, it is
