EARNEST, '■ Vig.Com. O. Mc-GIRR, Feb. 28, 1802. The Present Dividing Line Between Political Parties. Ever since the gloomy period when the bale ful plant so successfully transferred from Exoter Hall to the congenial soil of Now England, be gan to bear its first fruits in the unhappy con troversy which resulted in the establishment of the Missouri Compromise, the people have been taught by their wisest and best statesmen to fear aad abhor the abolition of negro slavery in the Southern States. Not. only did the prominent leaders of the Democratic; party, (which lsas al ways been radical even to the very limits of the Constitution,) array themselves in opposition to the encroachments upon local and State rights threatened bv the Abolitionists, but the leading minds of the Whig party (which was not so rad ical as to the freedom of the masses and the dis tribution of the powers of the Government) were also found in determined hostility to the purpo ses proclaimed by the disciples of WiutEKroacE. But owing to the defilement of tiie pulpit, and the degradation of the rostrum bv the senseless aeaiots who waged this now crusade of Abolition, the little knot of New England agitators soon increased its numbers till they were counted by thousands and hundreds of thousands. Final ly. after WEBSTER and CLAY had left the scene, and the Whig leaders could no longer discern tiie star of the Constitution by which their prede cessors bad steered the ship, the grand old organ ization which had been the pride and the hope of the conservatives, went down,a hopeless wreck, driven to pieces by the storm of the anti-slavery agitation. The pirate wreckers then gathered around the dismantled hulk, picked up what floating timber they could find, —no matter if it was even an old whiskey cask thrown overboard from the good shin DEMOCRACY —and lashing the incongruous remnants together,they ventured out to sea under ailag pledged to the extermination of "those twin relief of barbarism, Polygamy and Slavery." Meanwhile the Democracy stood firm for the Constitution and the rights guaran teed to the people of all the states under that sacred instrument. For years they battled suc cessfully with their new and impetuous adversa ry, but, at last, through the in-trumentality of a political Grecian Horse covered over with Tariff schedules and pictures of 1 somes for the homeless, and drafts of land- for the landless, the long sloe of the Constitution was success ful, the vails of the Union were broken down, and civil war reared its horrid front from om j cm! of the country to the other. The sudden- ! ness with which the strife began, and the immi-! nonce of the danger in which the Federal Gov- ! eminent was placed, constrained some of our i statesmen from attempting, at the outset, to di vert the conduct of the war from the direction ' in which it.- authors in the North desired it to! rag-. But the masses of the Democracy, fixing j their gaze steadfastly upon the Constitution, re-j solved to steer to the last by that polar star of j our ri'itiomd firmament, and determined that ! neither threat nor entreaty, danger, nor the hope • of reward should induce them to disregard that j safe and certain light in the hour of storm and j peril. Scon, after a short season of persecution' and oppression, people of other parties came to j their side, the Gtneral-in-chief was found to be ' of their opinion, and tin: President himself di-j vested Lis mind of its former political bias, re- ' moved his Abolition Secretary and appointed a Democrat in Ids stead. And, now, the dividing line between politi ,:al parries, is broadly and boldly defined. The Demccrats and conserva tives are in favor of aa early termination of the ; war and the restoration of the Union with all the rights cf all the states under the Constitu- ' tion guaranteed and protected as if no reoellion I had ever taken place. On the other hand, the j Radical Republicans or Abolitionists insist that siaverv is the cause of the war, and, therefore, i slavery must be uprooted. It is the old question j which We have discussed in succt .-ire Prcsiden- ! tial campaigns, divested only, on the part of the | Abolitionists, of the.tinsel and gauze work which ; formerly disguised its Lidoousnees, Mokhanna- i like, from the view. It is now nothing but nude, j crude Abolition, in all its native deformity. On j i which side will the jieople stand at this late day ? Will they decide for the Union and the tolera tion of negro slavery, or for Disunion and Abo litionism? CfWe publish in common with cur contcni ' pocaries generally, as a matter of news, the mes ' sage of the Rebel President. 43-Tliere seems to be some concealment a i bout our loss at the siege of Fort Donelson. Idie rcbelloss in killed and wounded is put down at 1600. General McC-lernand's division of our army lost upwards of three hundred killed, a bout 1000 wounded and 150 missing. We have seen no statement of the loss in Gen. Smith's division. eg-There is some prospect of an overhauling of the Congressional apportionment made for this state Last Winter. It turns out that Penn sylvania is entitled to 24 instead of 23 represen tatives and, therefore, the log-rolling of the Re publicans during last session, will be investigat ed, and we hope, corrected in accordance with the dictates of common decency and honesty. ®rNeither A. S. Johnston nor Bushrod Johnston were taken prisoners at Fort Donel son. It seems that Floyd and Pillow cut their way through our lines after a most desperate straggle—Gov Harris, of Tennessee, has not ordered the Tennesseans (as reported) to lay down their arms.—Conflicting reports prevail in regard to the alleged Union fueling in Ten nessee. (EErThe weather has been very variable, so far, during the present Winter. Snow, sleet, hail, rain, wind, sunshine (a very slight sprink ling of the last) seem continually to vie with each other for the mastery. On the mountains the "natives" are occasionally entertained by the music of a lively thunder storm. Even the ele ments seem to be engaged in civil feuds. *V?"We have been neglectful in not referring to the original matter which for some weeks past has graced the first page of our pajier. We have recently published a poem and romance from the pen of I)K. C. X. IIICKOK. of this place, which have been admired very much by the readers of our paper. This week we give some verses, entitled "Nature's Similitudes," written by a young friend whose modesty, we ! think in this case, cheats him of the praise he ! deserves for hi-excellent c-ilbrt. The "School master Abroad" has also "broken out in a new place" and is quite entertaining. Dutch is lie-coming quite J j pillar in our current literature. A poet of; considerable merit (Rev. H.llarbaugh) lias writ- i ten several very fine poems in this devoted lin-! go. We observe, also, that the Local of the Harrisburg Patriot J- Union, gets up some of. his "items" in the peculiar vernacular. We studied it (the vernacular) fr-un the age of 12 months till we were seven years old, when we fell into the hands of a pedagogue who intro- ; duced us to the English Alphabet in a venera- i ble copy of the "United States Sp lling Book," ; and from tiiat date to this we have been rather j remiss in the cultivation of our mother tongue. ! But if we ever meet the Dutch poet of I^eba-' non. or the Dutch editor of Harrisburg (by the I way he's the first Dutchman named Jones we ! ever heard of) we will give our opinion, in clioi- { eest Pennsylvania Dutch, either orally, or in wri- j ting, of the performances made bv them sever ally.

Congressional Apportionment. j Congress having passed an act which gives to i this State an additional member of the House of ; Representatives, the duty of re-arranging the districts will devolve upon (lie Legislature at the • present session. The Senate yesterday resolved ' to appoint a committee of three to revise the' apportionment of lost session. In the House] i ot Representatives a similar r;solution was in-1 traduced by Mr. Armstrong, and un an. •rulment! : otter.-d by Mr. Cessna, providing for the appoint- | i ment of a committee of seven to r. port a Dill 1 I apportioning tiie S::r. .*intocongivs.-ional districts for the next ten years. Action was then post poned on the resolution and the amendment. 'I he amendment of Mr. Cessna indicates the proper cour-o for the Legislature to pursue. Tiie apportionment of last year was premature, and is withal such a disgraceful gerrymander of the State that no amount of tinkering can put it into a decent or respi stable shape. The Leg islature seems to have lvc-n influenced ly Dut one idea in arranging tliis apportionment, and that was to make a few Democratic districts and as many Republican districts as the nature of the material would warrant. No sort of 1 respect was paid to the ratio Thi ratio for 1 j twenty-three members of Congress —the number j ; to which it was then supposed the Slate was en titled—was 120,363. One district contains a j population of 158,281-- exceeding the required j ratio by 31.918; while another district has a 1 population of but 101,42 i —or 24,063 less than ■ the ratio. Free districts have an aggregate pop ; elation of 708,552 ; and five other districts a \ population of 557, 404, the former exceeding the latter by 151,481, or more than sufficient popu lation to form another district, and more than any district contains with a single exception. Montgomery county is divided into three parts: one part attached to Bucks county and certain wards in Philadelphia," another part to Berks, and the third part to the counties of C hester and Delaware. A single township is violently torn from Northumberland county and attached to York and Dauphin, and other territorial and i numerical deformities characterize this misshapen thing called an apportionment. The Legislature cannot carve out an addition id district without commencing de tunv and ma king another apportionment. Nothing can rem edy the radical injustice and inequality of the act as it stands, but an entire re-arrangerrteut of the districts, and we trust that the House of Representatives will not permit this occasion to pass without tearing to pieces the abominable work of the last Legislature. The Treasury Note Bill. The United States note bill has received the President's signature, and become a law. The most important of the Senate's amendments, that making the interest on all the obligations of-the United States payable in coin, is n part of the bill as it finally passed. The duties on imports j arc set apart as a fund for the payment of this i interest, and the creation of a sinking fund for i the liquidation of the principal. The bill an- ; therms the issue of a hundred and fifty millions ' of notes in addition to those now in circulation: but it contemplates the withdrawal of these last from circulation, while the new ones may be re peatedly paid out after being received for gov ernment dues. The old notes and specie wifla lone be received in payment of dutic on impor ted goods ; the new ones are receivable for cv- f cry other kind of government dues, and are ale- j gal tender for the payment of all public and pri- I j rate debts except interest on government notes i ! and bonds, and dues at the custom house, j It will be seen that the new currency has ' some advantages over the notes of the susjiended , | banks so long us the suspension of specie pay- j ! monks continues. They can be used for the pay- ' I inont of taxes, for which bank notes cannot, j and they will legally discharge all private debts, . ; Being convertible into interest-bearing bonds, i thev will facilitate the funding of the public j ! debt, and through this channel and the payment j of taxes a 1 irge amount of them \Gfls ho con stantly withdrawn from circnlatioß4rbe aseqn ' -tantly returned into it by the Government.-*— ; Patriot (j- Union.

Jeff. Davie's Message. j To the Senate and House of Representatives of\ the Confederate Slate*. | In obedience to the Constitutional provision • , requiring the President from time to time to give j I to Congress information of the state of Conted-!. j eraey, and recommend for their consideration j j such measures as he shall judge neeessarv and • | expedient, 1 have to communicate that since the j j message at the las! session oi the Provisional I j Congre- events hav demonstrated that the i | Government had attempted more than it had i i power successfully to achieve. Hence in the I : effort to protect by our arras the whole terri- [ '■ Cory of the Confederate States, seaboard and in- i | land, we have been so exposed as recently to j encoun: r serious disasters. When the Con j federacv wa- formed, the States comprising it { were, in the peculiar character of their pursuits. | and a misplaced confidence in their former as i sorbites, to a great extent, destitute of fie* means j for the prosecution of the war on so gigantic a j scale as that to which it has attained. The j workshops and artists were mainly to b • found | in the Northern States, and on - of the first da tie's which devolved upon this Government was to establish the necessary manufactories, and in the meantime to obtain by purchase from n broad, as Jar as practicable, whatever was re quired for the public defense. No effort litis been spared to effect both these ends, and though the results have not equalled our hopes, it is be lieved that an impartial judgment will, upon full investigation, award to the various depart ments of the Government, credit for having done all which human power and foresight en abled thoni to accomplish. The valor and devotion of the people have not only sustained the efforts of the Government, but have gone far to support its deficiencies. 1 1 he active state of military preparations among • 1 the nations of Europe in April last, the date when our agents first went abroad, interposed unavoidable delays, in the procurement of arms, and the want of a navy has great.lv impeded our efforts to import military supplies of all . sorts. I have hoped for several days to receive the official reports in relation to our discomfiture at Roanoke Island and the fall of Fort Donel son. They have not yet reached me, and lam i therefore unable to communicate to you such i i information of past events, and consequences re- ] suiting from them, as would enable me to make i recommendations founded upon the changed < condition which they have produced. Enough 1 is known of the surrender of Roanoke Island < to make us feci that it was deeply humiliating, I however imperfect may have been the prepara- j I tion for defence. The hope is still entertained I that our reported losses at Fort Donelson have j < been greatly exaggerated, inasmuch a? I am not | < only unwilling but unable to believe that a large army of our people have surrendered without a j desperate effort to cut their way through the I investing forces, whatever may have been their 1 numbers, and to endeavor to ntak * a junction , with other divisions of the army. But in the i | absence of that exact information, which can ] only he afforded by official reports, it would be premature to pass judgment, ahl my own is ' reserved, as 1 trust yours will be. until that in- j formation is received. In the meantime, stren uous efforts have been made to throw forward reinforcements to the armies at positions threat ened, and I cannot doubt the bitter disappoint ments we have borne, by nerving the people to ■ still greater exertions, will speedily seen re re sults more accordant with our just expectations, and as favorable to our cause, as those which marked the earlier period of the war. The reports of the Secretaries of War ami; Navy will exhibit the mass of resources for the j conduct of the war, which wo have been cna- ! bled to accumulate, notwithstanding the verv ' . * i serious difficulties against which we have, con- ! tended. They afford cheering hope that our' resources, limited as they were at the beginning of the contest, during its progress, became do- ' veloocd to Mich aii extent as fully to meet otir ! future wante. The policy of enlistment for • short terms, against .which I have st. a lily con-! tended, from the commencement of the war. 1 has, in my judgnfent, contributed, in no imma terial degree, to the recent reverses which we have suffered, and even now render.- it difficult , to furnish you an accurate statement of the j army. When the war first broke out, nntnvof. our people could with difficulty be persuaded; ' that if would belong or serious. It was not j ! deemed possible that anything so insane as a i pcreistent attempt to subjugate these State - i could he made: still loss thai the jfrbt.-ion coM ' j so far prevail JUS to give to the war the vastpro- I portions which it has .assum-d. The peonfe,> incredulous of a long war. were naturally averse j to long enlistments, and the early legislation of Congress rendered it impracticable to obtain volunteers for a greater period than twelve ' months. Now that it has become probable that • the war will be continued through a series of j years, our high-spirited and gaihiut soldiers, j | whilp generally re,enlisting, area from the fact I i of having enter. ! the service for a short term. I j compelled iu many instances to go home to mak ' ; nee-ssary arrangements for their families during i their prolonged absence. The quotas of new j | ivgini nta for the war, called for from the dif-l | ferent States, are in rapid progress of organiza- ; [ tion. The whole body of new levies and re-en- j listed, men will probably lie ready in the ranks j within the next thirty days. But, in the mean- j i time, it is exceedingly difficult to give an aeeu- ' rate statetticnt of the number of our fore-.- in the field.

The people of the Confederate States living 1 principally engaged in agricultural pursuits, ; were unprovided at tlie commencement of lios \ tilities, with ships, slop yards, materials for ship i bnihling or skilled mechanics and seamen, in ; , sufficient numbers to make the prompt creation j i of a navy a practical task, even if the require 1 j ' appropriations hud been made for the purjvv\ i ' Notwithstanding our very limited resources, ; I however, tlie report of the Secretary wiM exhibit to you a satisfactory proportion in preparation, i I and certainly of the near completion of vessels ' of a number and class, on winch we miv con- ' : Jident'y rely for contesting the vaunted control I of the enemy over our waters. . i The financial system devised by tlie vi-dum . 1 of your predecessors has proved adequate to : : supplying all the wants of the Government, not- ! withstanding the unexpected and very large in -1 envuse of < xpenditure, resulting from a great : augmentation in the necessary means of defence. ; ! The report of the Secretary of tlie Treasury ' will ( xhibit the gratifyingfact that we have no) i floating debt; tliat tlie. credit of the Governmental; is unimpaired : and that the total expenditure! for tli<" year has been, in round numbers, one j hum'.red and seventy' millions *uf dollars, le.-s titan one-third of the sum wasted ly the ene my, in his vain effort to conquer us: le-s than j the value of a single article of export—the cot-j ton crop of the year.

In flic Department of Justice, which include., j the Patent Office and Public Printing, some j legislative provisions will be required, which will be specifically st:fted in the report of the head of that department. I invite the attention of Congress to tlie du ty of organizing a Supreme Court of the Con federate States, in accordance with the mandate of the Constitution.
