Union.-Saving
Time was when, in periods of high politi
cal excitement, this bandied phrase about
saving the Union, meant but little more than
a profane jest with what was secretly felt by
all to be sacred, and regarded as enduring.
Alas ! allusion to it is no longer untimely.
The " ghost of the ancient horror" is upon
us, a tangible and fearful reality.
Our country has nurtrued within her bosom
an insidious spirit cf faction, which like the
frozen viper warmed into life at some hos
pitable hearth, would strike its poisonous
fangs into the heart of the benefactor who
has pitied and tolerated. what-none among
the right-minded could ever love. It rears
its snaky crest in our very midst, and the
pestilent odor it•exhales sickens the patriot
with misgivings that we "have fallen upon
evil days."
Demagogues have struck at wbat is vital
in our. nationality, by encouraging a morbid
sympathy with monarchists, and depreciating
a generous regard for those who have sought
our shores, wearied with bearing the yoke of
foreign despotism, and longing to become the
recipients of blessings carved out for us by
the swords of WASHINGTON, GREENS anti JACK
SON, Lafayette, De Halb and Steuben. We
departed from the landmarks established in
revolutionary times, by a patrician recogni
tion of a man's " right of birth "—thus aim
ing a death-blow at the grand fundamental
principle of DENOCRITIC EQUALITY; a princi
ple which cannot be ignored without radical
ly changing the character of our govern
ment.
This insisting upon a birth test was rapid
ly followed by the frightful unconstitutional
ism which, with all the venal longing of
gross bigotry, imperiously demanded a reli
gious test ! It came to this, that
"Freedom to worship God!"
" according to the dictates of conscience, "
was no• more to be a universally conceded
privilege of citizenship. The slavish adhe
rents of haughty prelates, and atheists despi
sing the fairest gifts of Heaven, met together
in dark cabal and midnight plot. Under the I
mantle of secresy enjoined with blasphemous
oaths, the infection spread through the length
and. breadth of the land, like a loathsome
plague. In the madness of the hour, it was
forgotten that; . during the colonial period,
there were but two religious organizations
(the Catholics of Maryland and Quakers of
Pennsylvania,) who ever invited, or so much
as tolerated other sects settling in communi
ty with them. Ah ! how the forked light
nings of history strike at the hardness of the
times and blast the monstrous oppression,
which would single out and proscribe the
Catholic now, as it did the Quaker on a for
mer day when poor Mary Dyer was hung on
Boston Common for the great crime of refu
sing to abjure her faith.
And now we have confronting us, the fa
natical denial of the cardinal doctrine of
State right ; the impudent assumption that
the federal compact, bequeathed to us by the
wisdom of Columbia's heroic age, is fit for
nought but to be spurned to the four winds
as an unholy alliance, fruitless of good, and
prolific of " continual evil. "
Almost since the days of Jackson, there
has been a silent, steady, determined effort
making to undermine the well-adjusted and
happily proportioned fabric of constitutional
privileges. This has been doing by those
who would signalize their ignoble manhood
by the sacrifice of every certain political good,
for illusory hopes of something better, which
they promise to those who will listen, even
as the old serpent, in the primal age, beguiled
our first parents with visionary expectations
which hid from view the impending and aw
ful reality.
Of late, these powers of darkness have been,
. banded together, and for a brier season have
held their orgies amid the ruins of the old
National Whig Party; but the discordant
elements of which this execrable agglomer
ate was composed has caused spontaneous
combustion: There has been a premature
dissolution of their own unholy ution, before
the accomplishment of - their traitorous pur
poses. And now, the schemers are weak
and powerless, broken up and at war among
themselves, it is easy enough to give them
the 'sure quietus—to deal that trenchant re
--buke upon the crests of despicable enemies
(the enemies of religion and of liberty,)
from wliTh'h they will not recover until the
judgment morn.
With BUCILINAN in the field to lead on the
Democratic hosts, certain victory awaits us.
And victory means much more now than a
mere change of administration. It means
the preservation of-all that was dearly won
by the hero's sword, and is highly prized by
the patriot heart. It is for all that is vener
able in our history, for all that is valuable in
the present, and desirable for the future—
for the Union itself, that we are to meet at
the ballot box the foes of the sacred cause of
national prosperity and human rights.
Intact in all his public career, and of
praiseworthy benevolence and spotless integ
rity in private life, with a history as a civil
ian for which millions in coming time shall
honor his illustrious name, we can bear
proudly aloft our chieftain's banner of thirty
one star—the flag of our triumphant Union
"NOW AND FOREVER, ONE AND D.:srßAH...um - E."

Moonshine--The idea of electing Fremont
Political Parsons
Those familiar with the history of Scot
land, cannot fail to be shocked at the idea of
beholding such scenes as were produced by
the fanatics in the seventeenth century,.re
enacted in our own country. The Tribune
exhorts the clergy to preach against the South
and the Constitution, instead of preaching
the Gospel; forgetting, it may be, that fren
zied eloquence, and even religions fervor, may
contribute to the perpetration of the foulest
acts of which mankind is capable.
Sir WALTER Scorr, in his "Old 3.lortality,"
gives the following specimen of an enthusi
astic "shriek" by one of the fanatics:—
"Who talks of signs and wonders? Am
I not Habakuk Mucklewrath, whose name is
changed to Major-Missahib, because lam
made a terror unto 'myself and unto all that
are around me. I heard it. When did I hear
it ? Was it not in the Tower of the Bass,
that overhangeth the wide wild sea? And it
howled in the winds, and it roared in the bil
lows, and it screamed, and it whistled, and
it clanged, with the screams and the clang
and they whistle of the sea-birds, as the float
ed, and flew, and dropped, and dived, on the
bosom of the waters. I saw it. Where did
I sec it? Was it not from the high peaks of
Dumbarton, when I looked westward upon
the fertile land, and northward on the wild
Highland hills; when the clouds gathered
and the tempests came, and the lightnings of
heaven flashed, in sheets as wide as the ban
ners of an host? What did I see? Dead
corpses and wounded horses ; the rushing to
gether of battle, and garments rolled in blood.
What heard I ? SLAY, SLAY-SMITE-SLAY
urrEnn - --/et not your eye have pity ! Slay
utterly, old and young; the maiden and Me
child, and the WOMAN WIIOSE HEAD IS GREY I
Defile the house, and fill the courts with the
slain I"
"We receive the command," exclaimed the
congregation---"he bath said, and so shall
we do."
Let the Rev. WA.II.D KILLE3I BEECIIERS' and
, r .,
Juno - Donn PA - al:Ens' beat that if they can.—
And when the fury 'becomes dangerous, let
not lIonAcE attempt to guide it, or stay it,
lest its lightnings strike him dead, as they
have done tens of thousands,
4, When the battle rages Ind and long,
And the stormy winds do blow."
Keep it before the People
That the terms of the Senate bill for the
pacification of Kansas was pronounced by
John. P. I.lale to be unexceptionable ; and yet
the Black Republicans op po.se it.
That this bill abolishes those local laws
which General Cass denounces as unworthy
of the age; yet the Black leepublicans.oppose
Thal it abolishes those oaths which the
Kansas legislature imposed al to the fugitive
slave law ; yet the Black Republicans oppose it.
That it abolishes all objectionable qualifi
cations as to the manner of voting; and yet
the Black Republicans oppose it.
That it also prohibits the Kansas legisla
ture from enacting similar laws in future; and
yet the Black Republicans oppose it.
That it provides that all actual settlers
drfven out of Kansas may return and vote ;
and yet the Black Republicans oppose it.
That it provide,s for the protection to the
settlers of the whole army of the United
States to uphold this law: and yet the Black
Republicans oppose it.

A SLANDER.—The Louisville Courier dis
poses of a late falsehood of the Albany Even
ing Journal in short order. The Journal has
said :
"There is a strong feeling of opposition to
Breckinridge in Kentucky, growing out of
the trial of Matt. Ward, the murderer of the
school-master at Louisville. It will be re
membered that Breckinridge was one of the
"distinguished. counsel," who volunteered to
quit his post at Washington to go and screen
the rich and guilty assassin from punishment."
To this the Courier replies:
"Was there ever a more monstrous fabri
cation? There is no such feeling in Ken
tucky. Mr. Breckinridge had nothing to do
with the Ward trial. Ile was not one of the
"distinguished counsel." Ito did not volun
teer to quit his post at Washington. So there
is one slander put down. the Albany
Journal have the courtesy and fairness to
correct this error concerning Mr. Breckin
ridge, since it might affect him injuriously?"

41NG RODS, it is now admitted on all hands, that every
building to be secure from the destructive influences of
lightning should be provided with a good conductor.
The largo number of worthless rods that are put up
makes it necessary for purchasers to examine the merits
of the different rods offered for sale.
The public need but to examine Armitage's rode to be
convinced that they are constructed upon not only the
best, but the only safe principle of any rod in use.
Over WOO of these rods have already been put up with
out the loss of a dollar's worth of property by lightning in
any building to which they have been attached, which is
the best evidence that they are perfectly secure. I have a
