Under the above caption, the Chicago Un• ion, the leading Democratic paper in Illinois, thus discourses : • In the first numberk issued of the National Union we defined the true position of Setta tor Douglas. We told our readers in good faith that the Anti Lecompton police of our Senator was the first step - towards affiliation with the opponents of the Democratic party that it was a premeditated and understood plan, fully'arranged, and not a mere acciden tal opposition on one point. We know that "he had made up his mind to act against the Democratic Administration, even before he understood' what was the character of the Lecompton COnstitution s , and long before he left Chicago to resume hie'Setratorial duties. Directly ho spike in dehate, we knew his converSion was no mistake-, but told our friends that he had united with Mr. Seward. The Senators rowed their mutual love and admiration in this city. It was a strange spectacle to see two men so averse, suddenly - 1 grow so fond of each other, and some.folks said their lose only‘shoived the ho lowness of Congressional asperity': and they couCluded, therefore, that it was Senatorial courtesy to snarl at each other in Washington, and to profess undying attachment _to each other in private life. We felt the union was complete. notwithstanding the assertion 'of Senato - r Dowdas that he was still , a Demerit% and that he would remain the same effirient and undying opponent orfanatical Republicanism and hypocritical Americanism that" be has ever been. There were °Mere besides us who paw whither Douglas was drifting, and they left the vessel sailing under false colors, manned the ship of the Constitution, and ral lied beneath the letnrier of the Union. But there were those who had sailed so long in the vessel of politics which had been steered so truly by their honored.. conunander, when they had elevated for his tried devotion to th e inteiests of Democracy, that they could not believe that he was platting -them false, that he of nil others would mislead them, atilt he would date, even - if he wished, to land the Democracy in the frightful haven of Re publicanism. They could not, would not, dared not. harlmr the thought, and so thev followed him blinik, and even when he bro't them to the very shores of Republirani-tn, they' thought' be would change his course and land them safely, after their perilous enrage, 'once more on-the shores of true Democracy ; but they were doomed to disappointment.-= The true but deluded% Democrats . find they have been deceived, and aie rallying under that banner, which it is -to be regretted they should have deserted, even for a Douglas. Our friends find nosy that we were 'right in our conclusions relative to the political trea son of Mr. Douglas. Our _progwistientiims are verified and fulfilled ; be:is a Republican in full favor with Llorace Cheeky who, desires to pay him the price of his treachery—a re election to the U. S. Senate. Dow cheaply has Mr. Douglas sold his splendid - chan'g'e for th e Presidency, which the growing North west in '64 would have been strong enongh to have conferred upon trim, despite any re sistance from atty other sources I But aim, he has gone the way of Fremont, of Preston Ring, of W. Cullen Bryant and Wentworth. They too, contend they are ]democrats yet are they Reptiblieans. They are elldwed to differ on Banking, Free trade, and Harbor and Riser Improvement'•, ani this priwilega is to be given to Senator Douglas, as it has been to all the Democratic renegades in the Republican camp. By this means, they, still claiming to be Dernoemts, draw off a few Democratic votes ; they'can assert that the Party has changed and not they (an original idea with the first great Democratic deserter, Henry Clay', surd not with Mr. Douglas). Ile will claim to he a Dem .erat, and act• ing with the Adtninistiation on all points except - this one. The story is old and will not pay Mr. Douglas - for repeating it. LETTERS BEARING FIETITIOIIB ADDRESSES NOT TO BE DELIvERED.--The following letter to the 'Po.tmaster at Nashville settles the disputed, point : Post Office Departnient, June 3, 1858, Dear Sir : In answer, to your inquiry, whether the newspaper statements that the Postmester•Generat has decided that "where !letters reached any Post OffiCe, addressed to fictitious names or parties, they should not be - defivered to any one claiming to be.,the representatives of the addressed perties,,but be sent to the Department as dead letters." I have to inform son that such decision Jas been made, and the instructions, givelv'are, that all such letters, not being deliverable according to the standing regulations,shcluld, in due course of time, be retarped we dead letters. I m, respectfully, your obedient savant; HdRATIO KING. First Asistsat P. g. Gsas s. tt. Anderson, Esq.,P. M, Nasbtille,Tenn. *ho has changed The above pertinent question is tints answered by the West Chester Affersonian . . The Wig is a lit0(1 one, lint It ill &Waned.: 'ln August, 1857, a•daily journal, called "The Press," was commenced-in Philadelphia: It was hailed with pleasure by many Dernq criits, who anticipated irf it, a paper that would ever be .true to the Democratic psity, its-organization, its mensoresoind its public ,men and always hostile to Abolitionism, Black Republicanism, and Know-Nothing ism. Because it was -supposed such would. be its• course, Democrats patronized, - while the enemies of Democracywould give it no countenance or support. What is the aspect of the case in June, '5B ? Let any one who happens to be, at or near the Railroad Depot in our borough, on the arrival of the 4norbing train from Mita delphia,notice the men who make a rush for, and carry Mt the "Press," and be can answer the question. He will see a score and more who have been Anti-Masoas, National Re publicans and Whigs, and are riow either' Black Republicans or Know-Nothings, turn their backs upon the '''Daily News," and "North Anaeriean,"anrl grasp for the "Press," as the paper of their choice—the paper whose politics suits their views, and whose course snits their purposes. ' Now,. how and why is this Who has,, changed 4_ These men never - ;ere Demo crats—are always ready to enter tiny com bination against the Democra6l. • They re main—as they Lave always been, oppored to the Democratic party, There can, therefore, be but one answer to the above question. "The Press" has changed from being a Denierciatic paper, into a journal that meets the views •and purposes of the Know• Nothings and Black Republicans. __These politicans regard it as a co-laborer with Greelev's "Trikune,"in war upon the Democracy and National Ad mini tration, and because they see and. be lieve it to be such, they recognize-and patro nize it as their Plrila,delphia organ. And it is this "Press"—now known to be partly edited by D-. Ider, one of the Fre mont Writers and mowers of 1856—this thui changed and goce over to the enemy—that presumes to call •President Buchanan to account for the policy of his administration—and to dictate to the Demo crats of Chester and Delaware, whom they, shall .nominate and support for Congress. Why In all o f it, th e "Press" is but conforming to, Black Republican senti ment and feeling.. The Black Republicans and Know•NGiiiings are hostile to President Buchanan's Administration ;- they make such hostility the basis .of - their union. The Black Republicans and Know Nothings are unceasing in' their assaults upon prominent and active supporters of the National Ad ministration. The Black Republicans and Know• Nothings are moved with a r bitter and unyielding !retied of the. Democracy of the State and Union, because that Democracy are true to the Constitution and the Union and to Pteiident Buchansur? CONGRESS AGJOURNEI3.—The Congress of the United States adjourned on Monday evening of last week, at half past - six o'clock, :trier a session of a little over six months. TheapproptiatiOn bills were all -disposed of before adjourning, but a large amount of basiness was had over until the next Meeting, in December next. 'The Senate was immediately convened in extra -session by the President. DM great feature of the extra session, which ended On Weenie.-day, was the unanimous ,adoption of the Resolutions offered by_ Senator Mason cf .They are as follows: Resolved, (es the judgment of the-Seente), ThatArnelican vesrels on the high sea, in time of peace, bearing the American Hag. remain tinder the jeirtsdiction of the country to which they belong, and therefore, any vi-itation, molestation, or detention of such vessels by force, or by exhibition of force, on the part of a foreign power, is in derogation of the sovereignty of the United States. Resolved, That the recent and 'repeated violations of this immunity, committed by vessels-of-war belonging to the navy of Great Britain in the Gulf of Mexico rind the • adja cent seas, by firing into, Interrupting; and otherwise forcibly detaining them on their voyage, requires, in the judgment of the Se nate. such unequivocal and fitral disposition of the subject, by the government of Great Britain and the United States, touching the rights involved, as shall satisfy the just de mands of this gOvernment, and preclude here after-the occurence of like aggressions. Resolved, That the Senate fully - appro - yes the_ action of the . Fiecative in pending a naval fume inro . 4 he infested taftss with orders 'to protect all vessels of the United States on the high seasfrciun search or detention by the vessels-of-war of any other nation." And it is the opinion of the Senate that, if it becotno necessary, such additional legislation should he supplied in aid to the executive power as will make such protection effeottnd. These Resolutions, we understand; as set ting forth the position of the National Ads ministration with reference to the . right of visitation and i search, and - their unanimous endotsetneUt is a just tribute to the wisdom and patriotism of the Chief Magistrate of the Nation. Even- the bitterest reviler of the Administration was forced to vote for the., resolutions. and thus virtually refute the po sition _which has been advanced during the session, that the foreion policy of James Buchanan was not up to. that high mark which was required by the exigencies of the times. These'Resolurions not only deny in the most positive manner the right of Great Britain or any other nation to molest, visit or detain the v e ssels of this country. but they 'also announce the doctrine that the time has now arrived when an "unequivocal an#fmal disposition of the subject" mist be made, in order to poitect Anr&c . an rights in the future. This goes deeper than mete apolo gies for the past offences, which carry with them no disavowal of the right of search' as claimed by Great Britain. The butt at which tbis -arrow is aimed is that which stands mrdway'in this great controversy, and over looks the whole. Great Britain must'now took this question fairly in the faces She. must either renounce the absurd pretences set up with reference to her rightitointerftre with our ships on the high seas; or openly claim it and taltejlte consequen ces. When this - alternative is once`fairlv presented, as it is in the Resolutions of Mr. 11.1a.son,then will have arrived the Cute for final and satisfac tory adjustment of the whole difficulty, upon a Basis compatible with the dignity of the nation and• the right of the citizens. The Senate -hating adjourned, the:Whole matter is now left in the hands of thr;:-Presi dent. With the light stied from thtfßesolu tions passed by the Senate, ibereistin tliffi cultrin understanding what course the Pre sident will pursue. It will be - stich as to command, the , support of the country, and en force its sovereignty over all the yessetti that bear its 111 and sail . under its protection.

We rejoieo6 perceive. that the true Na tional Democracy - of Illinois, no longer under ' tutelage Or safe , keepirrgof any man, have act ed boldly and , as became-their faith and their prirtrat the late SpringfiAd State Convention. They have shown that they are not to be af frighted hynursery tales—that terrible giants, whether big or little, have no fears'for And while we must regret any . semblance of division or disagreement, in any portion of the_Vnion, between wings or sections in. the 'Democratic party, we cannot but congratu late the Democracy .61 the whole country _upon the; firmness with which our Illinois brethren have met the issue forced upon them by the fallen demigod - they had so tong. wor shipped—so long borne aloft upon their shoulder& When he departed from the strict line of his_ duty, they left him where befall —sorrowfully. but sternly._ Had the trite - Democracy of New-I , Wrk, Ohio and other States met as made* :the. first beginnings of party ilefection. when ths anti-slavery agitators raised their heads in our ranks—all 'would have been well with ,us, long since.

There is but one way, however,.to encounter them, and the Illinois Democracy have"shown that they know it : it is to give no quarter to die insidious error: Donglasism in Illinois is now a thing cut off from communication and identity with.the Administration Democracy of other . States. Time will heal the wound ; but the lesson will-be taught that is much needed, alp! .fu tote malcontents-will, we hope,Are.warned by • it, from this time forth. , -- The course pursued by the friends of the Administration in that State,deserves the sanction and app - ioval of the Regular Democ racy everywhere. These "Douglas Demo mats," at the former :State Convention, as : sumed to set them-elves in opposition to Mr. Buchanan and his policy, on the ground of principle. 'They ch erred him with departing from Democratic principle, and claimed- that Douglas had maintained what Buchanan bad abandoned ! The friends of the Adnitn istration acted promptly and nobly in at once Convoking another State Convention. Then, the Douglas people were frightened. Ap peals were made at Government quarters, to induce the Administration to stop all this, and cause its friends to surrender to Mr. Douglas. at discreticin.' This 471.4 very -prop eilv declined. The AdMinistration Convention has now met at the Capital of Illinois with full ranks and firm determination, nominated what mini he considered the regular Democratic State Ticket, transacted its businevi with decorum and deliberation, re-affirmed in its resolutions the confidence which the Democracy every where repose in the PreAdent and his Meas ures, and thus adjourned. The responsibility. therefore, of Airthcr difficulty, is placed• upon Senator Douglas and his Anti-Lecompton al !ies and followers.
