The time for - that has not -yet„ . come. To do so prematurely would be fatal, rind destr,oi all hopes of success; as it would open the eyes of their 'deluded votaries, and frighten :them away from the brink of the awful, gulf before them. The design has been to deceive, the public by high-sounding declamation about " freedoio,7 and the "'policy of our fatbers,"'l and by. making fair promises of economy in their:Proposed management of the govern nient, until tbey:coniel steal into public con fidence, and—office. They began heir war upon slavery' by a mild Teheran! of iusreni and imaginary evils, and the suggestion that it ought not to go into the territories. .When they imagined public opinion sufficiently ripe, they gradually added to the bitterness . of their denunciations of slavery, :.until they, • represented it as a curse upon.the South, the evils of- which were manifold, and, of incan- Ceicable magnitude,; and, to gi ' e those 'not familiar with it, astill greater lorior of the institvoion, the slavebolder lintr freOuently depicted as the-party most injured by its .ex irence. But thisidea necessarily exploded, as it appeared that a large majority of them wseresath.fied with their Condition. Thus it became necessary to discard, Elsa general rule, the assertion thin th e rna;te r occupied an undesirable position, which was maintained ,from sheer necessity. Fatuities then - set their mad brains . to , th e - work of coniincing ,the Ntatb - that their Southern neighbors are_re _gam , . of piratical robbers and mnrdeters; the canting of Wbose tboatswonld not only be ex: cuoth e, but justifiable; in fact, that the man who shoold engage in the work would at once take high tank among the noble patriots of whom history tell ns.! This is the ultimate desire of those - who control the opposititin at the North; and be who cannot see unmistikable alp:sof its development to. day, -is entitled to but a slight degise Of credit for his perceptive faculties.

The Weekly .Patriot and Union is a large octavo sheet, containing fully as much read ing mutter' as the first class New York week lies. At embraces a great variety of reading, suited to every taste end class' of society: While' it is decidedly Detn6critic in politics. its contents are not ebony political, but di versified with miscellaneous literary .matter. s e l ec t e d froth the best sources; letters from intelligent correspondents in different quarters of the country, a summary of the news, the latest telegraphic intelligence. ag'ricultural reading adained to the farmer, the New York, Philadelphia and- - Baltimore' Markets, full, narrations of all great and interesting public occurrences, and 'nit the various information calculated to make a newspaper interesting and instructive. To Dzsiocnsys.—We de-ire particulasly to invite the assktance of the Democrats of Pennsylvania to extend the circulation of the 'Weekly Patriot and Union. The terms upon which see offer it are such as to afford us little, if any profit ; but it is our duty to counteract, as far as -possible, the unceasing exertions of our politics! opponents, in Whitt!) work we are entitled to the earnest co oper tion of every well-wisher of the- Democratic party. The Power of the press annot be over-estimated. Our political enemies under vtand this, and use the 'advantage dilligently. The New York Tribune alone. has acquired,- through the labors of its proprietors and friends, an immense circulation in this State, and weekly distills its. Pais - onoits precepts' into the minds ofthousands who receive no awl dote to its baneful teachings. The Republi can party is now straining every nerve to ac complish the defeat of the Democratia party -in 1860,_while Democrats have been com paratively idle, relying with too much con& deuce dpon the unaided striangth of their principles.. It -is time that . we should com mence sowing the. field with cheap puhlica- Lions which shall reach the popular mind, or we cannot expect to reap the harvest of vic tory. Demccrats should not under-estimate the momentous importance of the election of next year. Everything is at stake--pur prin ciples, our party; perhaps even the existence of our Union; for we regard it as question able whether a sectional President would ever he inaugurated President of the Un'tetl States. Besides this great National contest, we will he dolled upon to elect a Governor of Pennsylvania, members of Congress, and a Legislator which shall elect a United States Senator. Never in the history of coun try has there been an election -of so much importance ae thet immediately before us. And will Democrats quietly fold their arms and and meke no exertion for the cause, - We treat that-every Democrat, to ebom this is addressed, will esteem it a privilege-to second -our endeavors to circulate sound Democratic teachings. Our only aim shall -be the success of the Democratic party. We know no di visions or fections,but the whole Democratic party opposed to the mad sectionalism and Abolitionism of the Republicans. Come, then, 7 : Democrats, and lend ns a helping. hind ! As i a Family Newspaper, the Weekly -Pa-' triot and Union commentia. itself to the at tention of the pabliO.
