Tlie Cnion In thq nation. The country
for which wo battle is tlie Union made by
tho fathers, on principles which it rightly
Appreciated by tlie people, would make il
as permanent in duration a the world.
If the wur were over today, wis should
still have in our body politic the elements
of discord, horauso wo should have one
miei of that Union among us. In seek
ii:K for a permanent establishment of
unity und harmony, wo must seek to con
vert, or eradicate the nion who are oppo
sed in principle to tiint Union. It is a
jrand error to imagine, that tho removal of
slavery w.il remove all ojiposition to tho
Uniou.
L The only basis on which men can unite
in u governmei't is the basis ol mutual in-
tercst und mutual yielding. Tlwi name is
true of Stales, eminently truo of a largo
number of Stales banding together to
form one creat nation. Tlie enmity to
tlie Union is not local. It exists at tlio
North ami at tho South. If any ono,
doubts Northern abolitionism is tho ally
of Southern seeessionism, a study of hisj
toty will remove the doubt and stamp tho
ti utb of the allegiance as an everlasting
fact. It is true that some men, and good j
men, loo, forgetting in the fierce: excite)
ment of the present tlio wholo history of j
their juogiess step by step, which brought j
us into the trouble, uro disjiosed to look
villi leniency on tho Noilliern disunion-1
ista aiiioiiLT us, because they so earnestly,
advocate the war against the Southern ,

repeat that no abolitionist is in favor of u
wur for the old Union and no candid aboo

j too near being forgotten. We shall htale
j nothing i hat will be disputed by even the
I radical men of tho day. '
, The theory of radical abolitionism as
propounded by its most eminent leudeis
, was this, that the Constitution of the U
' n ted Slates was a sinful ami therefore a
detestable instrument. They dunauded
; the exodus of tho idave over the ruins of
tho American Union. They avowed boss
lili'.y lo the Constitution in all their meet-
ings all Iheir exertions being the abolition
of slavery, they recognized no human law,
treaty or compact as oi suuicieni. lorco to
stand in the way of effecting Unit result.
inn- uir.jimuil llivi;illii ill ,'ia'3nuinm hi
a specimen of hundreds that wero held
throughout the country. A speaker na"
mod Poster, thus argued :
"Was it not that Hie only hopo for the
slave was over tho ruins of IhH Govern i
ment and of tho American Church ? The
dissolution of the Union was tho abolition
of ishivery. Why not, then, address them
selves plainly to their work?''
Another speaker, cue liemond, paid
that :
"Kemembrring that bo was a sdav ohold i

And Mr. Wendell Phillips, tiio Apostle
of Aboli'ionism, and now tlio representa

g.intly illiis'.n.U I by (Soveinor Andrew,!
of Massachusetts, thus in an apolegeiio1
tnanner, intimated that he eoincided in !
(lio views concerning the "scoundrel'
Washington," and proposed to vail tho
statue of tho greatest ol men. He said:
"lie should bo loth to affix lo tho name
of Washington the epithet which Mr. lie

Another resolution directed that tho
proceedings ho scut to Governor Wise of
Virginia and thja last resolution of this
meeting, in a series of thirteen, waj one
directing tho publication of the proceeds
nigs in the cuiutry j'apcis and in tho N.

admitted to that paper, hut il is a part of
tho history of the times that tho men who
acted at this meesing were also eo opera
ting with the Tribune in the political cum-,
jiaign then going on, und expected their1
iitlihaticn to be recognized by thai paper.'
Hut although their proceedings were not
published, the Ti -ilnne. had no woid ofdo
nunciition for the men who tliu. openly
proposed correspondence with Southern
disuniouists. Wo do not sjieak of it to
blame the 'Trifanu; That paj.er was net- 1

When the government of the United i
States looked for Northern sympathizers
, with Southern rebellion, did it examine
tho history of that meeting? When it
sought tho men who corresponded with
the South for tho purpose of bringing a
bout disunion, did it inquire into the rules
of the New York meeting, which directed
the opening of correspondence on the ob
jeet?
The page of history which wo have
opened is black indeed. It may well ap
pal tho strongest heart, when we reflect
on the extent to which this name radical
disunionism has been permitted logo.
Put we havo not opened it to discourage
any one. On the contrary, it is lo rouse
tlio spirit of every lover of his country,
every patriot in America, that we direct
attention to Ibis inf.iinous tlory. Its les
son is one of love for tho country and for
the principles of its fathers. In time like

should not bo deceived by the flimsy jirn

truth, plain us daylight, which no man of
the radical party will bo found ready to
deny, that thai jiarty is ojijiosed to tho
prosecution of tho war for tho Union as'
il was, und only in favor of il for thoes-:
tablishment of somo sort of Union in

Hearts irom (iiiicinent that Mod is our

We may deck vice in g ay attire. Art
and we iHli may lend their aid to hide hoi

that at lirsl she may charm with her him.,

it is liko dressing uj a grinning, ghastly
skeleton in 1 10 drajiery ol u lirido. When
her diabolical end is attained, she will
droj her ma.sc, throw oil her drajiery, and
stretch out her long tlcshlcss arms to en
circle her victim in tlio embrace ol death.
Tho joy of religion are the result of ho

It is a worldly maxim that vice is the
partner of misery, and it is an inspired
truth, that "the way of t!ie ti;magres-or is
hard." Ever) virtue, which we are com
manded to practice, conduces to health,
honor wealth and haj jiiuess, while vice -jl
every description leads directly to dishon
or, poverty and misery. Thus we have
tho evidence before our eyes, lii i' holi
ness is necessary to inn-fed, liappinc-s ; and
that all that is reijuired to make hell
dreadful as il is rojiresented by the tig
ures of Scripture, is to let human passion
reign unchecked : for it sometimes makes
a hell ujion earth. j
Other consideration, s;i 3I1 as reputation,

the work of God's Almighty Sjiirit and
Grace can so renovate the lie.i' t, as to so
euro yojr ultimate hajipiness. Seek re

bulwark of defence against vice : an-1 seek
it now, befoie evil habits have worn theii
furrows so deep in your heart, that noth
ing can obliterate tiiuui.
Pardon does not necosarily imply res
toration. An executive may j.arihin an
criminal but he cannot ietore him to the
place in society (hat he had oc uipied bo-,
tote he transgressed. There is a siima
attached to Ins character, and a loss cf
confnleneo noi easily regained. Hence
tho whole gospel plan is one designed, not
merely to seeuro pardon !o the penitent,
or, in other words, to aveil the penally of
tho law ; but to restore him to tho jdaee
which ho would have occupied had he
never sinned.
Could the habitual swearer only see the
list of his oaths, as taken down by the
pen of the recording aniiel, he would nev
er susjeet that it, w.n the 'vti' k of a man
but ho would supjiose that it was the outi
pouring of soir.e satanic spirit w ho had
devoted all the energies of his mind to
the task of reviling his Maker. And
though ho might bo a brave man: his
knees would knock like I'elsha..ar's w hon
he saw the handw riting on tho wall ; and
tho pen would di op from his nei'Tcless
grasp if he were required to write his sig.
nature to the list and acknowledge it as
his deed.
It khould be a startling thought, that
(iod may take the swearer at his word, and
in oternity po.ir upon his head those vials
of wrath which .ire as yet unopened. Who
would dare to die liks thai profane wretch
who swore, with an awful oath, that he
would boat a rival ho it, or blow himself
to hell, and who-,e, body, in live minutes,
was scattered in fragments over tho wharf, 1
and whose soul was in the presence of the;
l'.oing whom he had insulted and defied.)
hat is man that ho should dare to j r.i ,
vok tho wrath of one who can sweep him!
into eternity by His breath? i

The Holy Spirit will work without the!
fire of Providence, in changing ns into the:

for the exjiress jiurpo-e of imitating him. '
Yes: let bis glory change us "Irom glory j
to glory," and iiom one another; and
whatever conformity to tlie divine image
we cain by this purifying process of hoiy j
contemplation will lesson tho nocsity j
for sovcre purifying discipline.
How infatuated most he be, whose re-1
ligioil begins and ends with hearing audi
talking of "tho truth as it is in Jesus!"!
That truth is intended lo rulo belli the
tonguo and the temper ; to sub Ino both
the love of the world, and the love of ease;
lo turn sloth into activity, and selfishness
into cheerful benevolence; and thus to
niako all whom it blesses, "a blessing" to

lie as much a fraid of mil following the
