With that view, , he has givensome of the best offi ces.itt his - disposal- 7 - ---and very many sec ondary ones—to his political opponents-- (athing they never do to us.) He fur 3ouglied-,those of their draftea men, elect ed to , the Legislature—thus giving them .the means of electing a tltate Treasurer and Senator; In return for all this kindness, Buckalew's Mouth-piece (the' illpomsbitrg Dembcrat) speaks of Gov. 4:Alit:ill as • follows.i '"An Abolition Pow-wow was held a few %lays ago at Washington, at which Riot Pardon Curtin attended and received his •ordeis. lie is to be the abolition-conser v4ive-nigger-emancipatiomantt-iaw can didate for re-election.

All the power he has given them, they will rise to prostrate him, as they would any totter friend of the country. It takes smite well-meaning persons a long while to learn the true nature of the Slave Pow .er, which is now seeking the destruction gif free institutions under the stolen garb of "Demecraey." Gov.

It is said there were seven regiments of Unidu troops at Franklin, only 13 miles distant. Rebel dispatches from Charleston say that the Union fleet at Port Royal num bers 123 vessels; including three frigates and 20 gunboats. The rest are chiefly transports.

Democracy and Aristocracy. BY G. V. XAYNARD _ . Democrany,as ttprineiple,is the power and light ( of llie.iieople'to govern themselves, as-npposed,toiill-Other fortes of govern ment which wanlill . rule without the 'min `sent of - thtilgoierne . d. Here in America this is' the trial lioni of the power of the people. . Our-government is a Republic. The power and will of the people speaks through their representatives, in all-the departments of. government; . 04r - rulers have no hereditary pride to disphy, , no tinsel:and glitter of equipageibut respeot,. ed in their place for their -.faithful dis, charge of duty, their robes, of office rep resent the majesty of the people. • Every' man, floes or rie,h, stands equal before the' law, with his _rights of property, .liberty 1 I I and'life fully iiroiected. The.offiees un deri the gevernment are ope for the cow-. petition of all :The only aVficatioO for office: "is he lintiest,is We pahle?"' Such is 'the model Aeiiublic, the governupent of the United. Seatei .! Bilt this great TAUS ple of Liberty Which the people reared,is sought to be overthrown by a Government claithing to have the foundation of _its power resting upon Slavery. The privi leged few; by the accident of birth, the claim of property and place,; to rule (he many, who have no certain rights in assu rance, but only at the will' and capfichSus pleasure of their rulers'. From the two adverse principles, that are et war 'in this consent it is thus clearly seep; that as the one' or the other triumphs, Will effect the rights and liberties of every citizen in the Unit edStates. Yea further -the result of this great struggle' for a principle of Government is'bounded only by the walls of the' great world, it is a contest of Infinite moment It takes hold . of all mankind ' It has a sublimity that' fixes the earnest eyes of all nations upon he contest. They are interested apecta tors; not merely front Curiosity, but from au interest as the one or the other princi ples of the government prevail, that may effect their own immediate condition. They may find themselves interested par- ties in very deed before they are aware Should a foreign war grow out of this strife it will be a 'universal war. Ou the one side will be arrayed all the power of the usurpation of the rights of the people as represented under whatever form of intolerant government; and on the other side the Representatives of the Democra tic idea,. " that• governments instituted among men derive their just powers from the consent of thegoverned," as the out spoken. sentiment of all the struggling masses'for their liberty throughout the world. These treacherous enemies in our own household, are not only our enemies but are instinctively felt to be the enemies of the people .who would obtain their lost rights in all nations. Hence those great patriots, Garibaldi. Kossuth, Mazzini and that t rue hearted Englishman Johnßright, are the ardent, earnest champions of our national cause. While . all • those who know "their craft to be in danger," their usurpations of power in robbery of the rights of the people, have all their sym pathies 'alive as the "natural allies" of the Slaveholders' rebellion. That, this conflict has long been matur ing, is apparent to every thinking. mind. It is not a.thing that has suddenly sprung up. That there should be set up' and maintained here upon the Western Con tinent "a , - I,..,yeruttient of the people" for three quarters of a century, which should assert and maintain the natural rights with which God has endowed men; and which stionld prormso eminently succes ful as to advancmia.people in so short a time in everything that could be condu cive to their prosperity and happiness be yond•any precedent known iu the'wcwid's history. This new power of goverhineut was not to be endured,•if possible over• thrown by those robber tyrants who have ever sought to rob their fellow man of his natural rights. Yes, say they, thislight T house of liberty in the New World. This Pharos of the Nations! must hare its light put out—must be destroyed.. But courage, strong courage to every patriot heart iu our own hind and through. mit the world ! ,Does any human heart beat for liberty! the pulsation of that heart is from a Divine influence, and that influ ence is,never to fail. The cause in which true then are engaged, is the cause of God. It is the cause o the tnanY'Millinns of the human race against: the.powerfuf few, the rich and .strong who would oPpress them. And this cause of, the millions is to au assured triumph., The masses of the people in the old world have 'seen the illumination of our conflict in theWesiern I sky •and are awaketting to the importance of the struggle. Many yearsago in Asia and Europe," the le:liven was . hidden . in three measures of meal" by a power :nigher than that of man, and the work of it ie . now beginning to-appear.
