It is now three years since the great rey- olution commenced, which has deluged our country in blyod, and heaped upon ug a debt which threatens to blot our Republic from the n.ap of nations. Ir we could see py hope ih the future, a review of the past would ret call up such fearful forebodings. But when we consider our condition as it was in 1860. and aait is now, and note Low rapidly we have progressed to destruction, Wwe cannot repress a shudder for our fate, should such a condition of affairs continue for three years longer. As a Democratic government, we cannct survive under our Present policy, for one half of that time. — There must be a radical change, ina very short space, or no power on carth can save us from despotism. In the first placs, it is utterly impossible to maintain so large an Ary as ours has been, nnd is, for the pur- Poses in which it is used, in a government where the people are the sovereigns. That the people are unwilling to sustain this war, as waged now, the necessity for a conserip- tion law sufficiently proves. And an army eannot, by any possibility, be raised and Supported, under Republican institutions, against the will of the peonle. Under Dem- ocratie rele, the necessity for a large mili tary force would Jong since have passed by and the davge's which row darken our ho- rizon, like the shadow of death, would never have been upon us. In vain was the voice of Democrats raisea to warn our people from the dangerous path, and our present condi- tion is the result. For three years every nerve in the nation has been sirained in a strife among breth- ren, the object of which sickens the soul, — Their public speakers declare and their acts attest that the object for which this war 18 being waged, on the part of the Ad- ministration, is not the restoration of the Union, They boldly tell us that we cannot have *‘the constitution asit is and the Un. fon as itwss;” slavery mus: be destroyed, the South subjugated, and the old goyern- ment, as nace by the Constitution; nuniber- ed among the wrecks of the past.—Tt is well, after three years of revolution and war, to look for a moment upon our condition and sve what results have arisen to ccmpensate us for the loss of a willicn of lives and the contraction of a debt which, if it does not destroy us utterly, will weigh us to the dust for generations to come, It is well, when the air is thick with the groans of dy- ing men, and thé smoke of battle, to irquire what 18 it for ? and why ought it not to cease ? It may be said that these whom we have placed in power are the proper persons to answer that inquiry ; were the danger on. ly to themsolyes, we might admit it, but we are all in one vessel, and while illions of men are toiling out their lives at the oars, the hands of one man directs their ef- forts, and the more violently they labor, the more rapidly they progress to destrue- tion while the hand «t the helm 1s gu.ding the boat upon the breakers. The Storm Jowers over us darkly and pertentiously, and it is time to inquire wither we are being guided. Thie war was commenced gs we were told, for the purpose of preserving civil lib- erly , every energy of a mighty people was placed at the disposal of those in power, and by hundreds of thovsands our citizens eflered up their lives.in defence, ay they fondly believed, of the principles for which their fathers died. Our Southern border has become one vast golgotha, and ts fir- tile fields have been desola‘ed in the blight- ng breath of war : a skeleton sits upon al- most every hearth stone in the land, and still the darkness closes more densely aronnd us. We have never, fora moment, doubted the honesty of our soldiers in the eld. and our heart grows sick whee we remember the horrible purpose for which they have been sacrificed. Instead of preserving civil liberty, every blow struck has but tended to destroy it, while our brothers were offer. mg up their hives upon bloody ficlds, the hands which guided them werestualing away our hbcit'es, ‘That tha great principles which have been our pride and boast in the past, have been invaded, the most ar, dent friends of the Administration do not pretend to deny.

Avove the very graves of our fallen bret}ren, these who be- gan the strife and wrged it on, meet to re new their unholy pledges for the destruc. tion of our institutions. Better far had the Union been rent unto fragments in the beginning, than that so many brave men shovld full and a despotism be reared above their graves, And how long shall such a state of affairs continue ? A question of fearful import, and one which must be decided within the vext year, Our progress to destruction will grow more rapid with time, for, in the words of one of the wisest statesmen our nation ever produced, “‘a bad feature in gov" ernment grows worse every day,”’—the Democratic party is the only one under which the nation cver prospered, because 1t is the party of the Constitntion.

We cannot but admire the genius of the present Napoleon, and the steps he is taking prove him to be the “nephew of his uncle.” The propositions he has lately made to the monarchs of Europe for the settlement of all difficulties existing, or to exist, without re- sorting to the sword, prove him to be either a philanthropist, or an exceedingly crafty politician, The first Napoleon made amica- ble propositions to England even while con- templating the messures which afterwards deluged Europe blood, and shook the globe to its centre. It may be that the peaceful measures proposed by Louis are of the same natare, and that the veil will be shortly drawn upon a drama as blcody #nd terril le as that which was witnessed in Europe three quarters of a century ago. But, until such designs become manifest, we have no reas.u to believe that the Em peror of the French has any such intentions, And what a contrast in ths measures of a Ecropean Monarch and those of the Pies- ident of the American Republic. We have boasted in the past of our christianity, aad hatred of blood-shed, and to-day Amer- ican ci'izens may well blush with shame that OUR executive should be outdone in measures of humanity ; and that an exam- ple should be given, from such a source, which President Lincoln would do well to follow, The lately elected speaker of the House of Representatives, in hig official capacity, says to the country ane the world that the rebellion will certainly be crushed before the adjournment of Congress. “And what iy the awful signification of his words 2 Simply that the South will be a wreck to appal the the soul of a Caligula, that its institutions will be overthrown utterly, and that hence- forth the Southern States will be but depen- dencies upon the despotism to be compre TED by the present Congress. The words of Mr. Colfax call up ideas tao horrible for contemplaf on, for they show that the poli- cy of the dominant party is the complete subjugation of the States in “rebellion,” and that no word of compromise or peace is to go forth until the South is crushed, bro- ken, annihilated ; until its last brave wan has fallen ; for with the issue pre- Sented as it 15 row, of the Union with - cut the Constitution, ijt ig simply im- possible that an honorable Southerner can choose anything but death, A brave man will die rather than be dishonored. Is it then possible that we, of the Continent once consecrated fo peace, can be put to shame by one who occupies a throne which the blood of millions has purchased. It cannot be said that Louis Nopoleon has been influenced by fear, for no nation in the world is cn so good a war footing as his.— It simply means that he, as a brave man, nows how to treat brave and honorable en- emies, even though they are hereditary foes ; while our own executive, a coward himself, knows nothing of the respect due to bravery, even when the fortunes of war have disabled foes who are naturally brothers. + Ray When Martin Lather was sum- moned to the Dict of Worms, by the Em. veror Charles V,, to answer for bis opposi tion to Popery, thousands of citizens throng- ed the streets of the city to see the remark- able man who was shaking the thrones of Europe to their foundations, Many of the doors of the houses were filled with in- scriptions, prominent among which was this significant quotation from Scripture : **Woe to the nation whose king'is a babe.” In our own country, three centuries la- ter, while we dare not speak so disrepect- fully of our ‘‘sovereign® or inscribe such things upon our doors ;—the same sentence is written at the door of a million hearts, and flnds an echo within, ~ meet.

It SEems a strangeano- maly, but it is nevertheless perfectly true, that these ““fri>nds of freedom’ €re MOBALLY the most audacious of mortals and physically the most abject cowards on the face of the earth. Sumner, in the Senate, was even brave enough to ridicule the Ehysical infir- wities of the venerable Senator Butler, but when Preston Brooks, a man of scarce halt his strength, took him by the collar, and smartly caned him, he fell at his feet, grovel- ing like a whipped hound. Burlingame was brave enough to blaspheme the Almighty, as Union, but rode, day after day, in a close carriage, for fear General Lane would give him a switching.

But physically, he is rrobaly the biggest coward of the lot, not only disguising himself in cloak and Scotch cap, but snrrounds hime self with a “Guard de Corps,” like poor Lows the Sixteenth. Nor is there any real anomaly in this matter. The Abolitionists have a theory, or abstraction, that all men, Whites, Indians, Negroes, Mulattoes, and Sambos, are ** created €qual,” and in support of this “grand truth,” as an abstraction, they are brave as lions, but when they come todefend it in practice, and affiliate with the inferior creatures, they can no more stand up face to face with an uncorrupted white man than can the negro himself, and are therefore, physically considered, the greatest cowards the world ever saw, ee B&5™ The people have some slight inter est — faint it ie true, and not worthy of much regard at the hands of the War Department but still a little—in knowieg what has be eome of the men that have gone to the war under the various calls for troops.
