    Letter from the !lon. R. F. Hallett, of
Massachusetts
We commend the following eloquent and
truly patriot!.c letter to the best attention of
our readers. It is well-timed and well ar
gued.—En.
BOSTON, October 4, NU.
Robert P. De Silver, Esq , Holmesburg,
MY DEAR. SIR : Had it been in my power,
I should have felt much honored in addressing
the meeting at Holmesburg, which is to be
held on the 7th, in support of the Union and
of your nomination by the cc Citieens' Union
Convention " for Legislative representative
frem the Sixteenth district of the city of
Philadelphia. In your acceptance, addressed
to the committee, you have done me the honor
to quote my published opinions as forming
the basis upon which, in this crisis of public
affairs, you, though always a Democrat, have
accepted a nomination against the exclusive
nominee of the Democratic party.
You are in the field, not as a Democrat, but
et the call of citizens who are no longer De
mocrats, Whigs, or Republicans, but "minute
men " for the bailie of the Union !
There is upon us one great absorbing ne
cessity. We must get the old Union back
under the Constitution ; and to talk of party
now is as discordant and out of place as was
the clamor of Johnny Hook for the price Of
his beef in the camp of the Revolution. When
we have measures to discuss parties are in
place, but when the life of the nation is at
stake the party man is his country's pest. He
who cannot, to-day, in his country's extreme
peril, lift himself above party, and take his
stand on the high ground of constitutional ?la
tionality, is limit for the public service; and is
not large enough to represent anybody but
himself!
Parties without a country ? What are they,
and yet who can be sure to-day that he is to
have for his country the country of Washing
ton and Jefferson and Jackson ?
Whoever, until we have ended this war,
shall dare to come before the people with
a rparty rally for Democrats, Republicans,
Whigs, or Know-Nothings, I say let hint be
driven out of the temple, not by scourging,
but by the force of public opinion ! Let the
cry of every true man be, Gre me back my
country, and then I will choose my party!"
There is no issue but this one great test
SHALL THE CONSTITUTION RE THE SUPREME LAW
OF THE LAND IN EVERY STATE AND TERRITORY ?
Eleven States have repudiated it by Secession.
'e must take care that the free States do not
abrogate it by Abolition. Both are alike here
sies to the Union, and both must be driven out
of our Eden, or we can have no Union, and
no peace in it if we had Union.
The Democratic party, in its high nation
ality, has always followed the cc Mag." It
struck down nullification with Jackson, and
it defeated Abolition, and would have made
it powerless, so long as the South adhered to
the Union. There has been their gre4t. wrong
to themselves and to us. They broke the
power of the Democr. tic party to give them
equal rights in the Union, and now they com
plain that Northern Democrats do not follow
them out of the Union into treason and rebel
lion.
I say the Democrats of the North have
done their whole duty of brotherhood by the
South. Anxious to preserve that equili
brium of power upon which the Union rested
between North and South, again and again
they have advanced to meet them, almost at
the verge of Secession, to save the Union.
For twenty years, to my personal knowledge,
at every Democratic Convention, the national
platform has been framed with the most liberal
Tim of affirming every constitutional right to
the South, and eonceding even every abstract
right, up to the point of a severance of the
Northern Democracy. I always said, that,
though sound in principle, yet whenever the
positive protection of slavery in the Territo
ries, by law, was made a part of the Demo
cratic platfbrm, it would render the Northern
Democracy powerless, and the South must
fall with them.
I have firmly believed, and uniformly acted
upon that belief, that the preservation of this
Union depended upon preserving the union of
the Northern and Southern Democracy. The
South never elected a President alone; the
North never elected a President alone, until it
was done by an exclusively Northern party, in
llitiO, and then our country, always before
united and prosperous, fell to pieces. I stop
not to ask by whose fault, but there is the
awful fact. And now, where is the cement to
compact it together again ? Not in the Re
publican party, for they are sectional; not in
the Democratic party, for the Democratic
party South is Secession, and the Democratic
party North, without the South, is powerless.
We have tried parties, therefore, until they
have severed this Union, and involved the
country in the horrors of civil war, and it
is plain as the stars in the blue field of the
Union, that party divisions at the North can
never restore the Union. Nothing can do it
but all parties laying aside party for the Con
stitution and the supremacy of the la.ws. Who
will do it, is the question of patriotism.
There is a lingering but mistaken idea in the
minds of some Democrats that they must keep
up the party during the war, in order that it
may be in position to make peace with the
- I,7nion men of the South; and that, if Demo
crats do not commit themselves in this matter,
they are somehow to receive the peculiar fa
vor and sympathy of the South when the
Union comes together again. I want to see
that idea thrown overboard. It finds no re
sponse from the South, for those who acted
with us as Democrats at the South, and who
combine the talent, the statesmanship, and
the effective political power of the seceding
States, are now dominant in the Confedera
tion ; and all they will now accept from us is
separation and Disunion forever. If we would
aid the Union men of the South, it can best be
done by unity at the North, and not by party
divisions. Or if there is now forming a de
structive party opposed to the President in
his avowed purpose and only purpose of re
storing the Constitution with all its guaran
tees, South as well as North, when Se
cession ceasesL'-then has the time come
for all who love their country above
party, to rally around the iv Flag " in one
grand National party for the restoration of the
Union as it was, against the party of aggressive
emancipation.
And, therefore, it would appear, that until
this war for the Union ends, the party nomina
tions ofDemocrats in Pennsylvania, New York,
Massachusetts, and elsewhere, can do nothing
in aid of the Union, and must tend to weaken
the Democratic party North and discourage
the Union men South. Because in every State
that party, in the present aspect of the coun
try, must be out-voted, and if they are
to be regarded as the only friends of the
South in their rights of property, the
Union men of the South will find no hope
in restoration to the Union.. They will see,
and the Secessionists will say, that their friends
are powerless. They cannot save themselves
in the North, and how can they protect the
rights of the South in the Union 7 Will that
be any invitation for the South to come back,
when it is demonstrated that in a party contest
the Republicans are the strongest?
The leaders want party, the people do not;
and that party which is foremost and most sin
cere in repudiating all party till this war is
ended, wilt be the party of patriotism, the par
ty of country.
I deem it, therefore, the highest duty to
country which the Democratic party could
now perform, and the strongest evidence of
its good faith, to suspend and withdraw all.
Party nominations, and to act not at all or only
to act with that body of men, whenever and
wherever assembled, which exhibits the high
est patriotism by showing the least of party.
Such, I apprehend, is the purpose of the
" Citizens' Union" who have put you in nomi
nation, and therefore, aside from my high re
gard for you, and my knowledge of your am
ple fitness tor this post of duty from your
personal qualifications, your devotion to the
cause of the country, and the experience of
many years of faithful public service in official
- positions abroad, I earnestly hope that suc
cess will attend this noble effort of your con
stituency to sink party in country.
With great respect,
Very truly yours,
Soldiers• Blankets.
[For Ilia Press.p
I have observed in the newspapers, recently,
numerous and pressing calls upon the communi
ty- for blankets for our volunteers, engaged in the
protection of their country from destruction.
That Government should find it difficult to sup
ply at once the immense number of that neces
sary article for the comfort of our army is no mat
ter of surprise, though in appealing to the pub
lic to furnish them from them the family private
stores the fact appears to have been overlooked
that few families may possess such a blanket
as is adapted for camp service.
In private life blankets axe selected more for
the softness and non-conducting powers,
usually denominated warmth, than for their
capability to resist severe abrasion, or the
wear and tear attendant upon camp-life. More
over, they are generally white or uneolored,
which is an objection to their use. Our shops
and stores contain large numbers of these
blankets even now; but, if generously inclined,
citizens were to send these to the army, they
would probably be sacrificing the amount of
their cost, or have them returned, with the
chilling remark that "their use would not
compensate for the trouble of carrying them' ,
Each soldier probably knows whether his
own house, or that which he left to join the
army, contains such a blanket as would be
available for his use. Let him write to his
mother, sister, or wife, to send such an one
for his use, or that of some suffering com-
I•anion, and, when it is received, if he should
used payment therefor, let the Government
give him for it. The appeal, coining direct
from the soldier to those most anxious for his
comfort, would produce a prompter response
than when made by Government officials, or
calls from the press. The best for the pur
pose would be procured, and colored of the
required shade ; for where the relative ap
pealed to was unprovided, she could readily
Wave the sympathies of some other by a per
sonal representation of the want, who would
furnish the desired article, if it could be obi
Utica at all. My brother took his own blan
ket with him, when he went into the service.
Another brother is about to go, and I shall
furnish him with the best blanket which our
family stock will permit; and if either of them
need more, I will spare thorn the best we
have ;.11t I do not choose to send my blankets
to I know not whom. and to have them per.
baps generalized with others as unworthy of
acceptance.
Let the soldier make his appeal, if he feels
the want, and, if the quartermaster or other
otlicial will facilitate its transportation and de
livery to him, it will be responded to by thou
sands of SISTERS.
[For The Frees.]
In order to facilitate our worthy ex-Presi
dent in recovering his stolen property, would
it not be well to suggest the propriety of his
ascertaining whether or not his old friends,
Floyd and Cobb, have not been in the neigh
borhood of Lancaster Or can it be that the
influences that have so long surrounded him
beget the like results wherever he goes 7

A Vision of Battle.
I heard a voice on the field of Death,
By War'a dark cloud o'ercast
It swelled on high o'er the cannon's roar,
Like the burst of seas on a rock-bound shore,
O'er the bugle's wakening blast !
Its tone was high, and the words it spoke
Were those of a chieftain bold;
It rang o'er the ranks of the patriot host.
Till F. far away all Its aakc§ wqre I v a
'Mid the dead in their life-blood rolled !
It spoke to the brave, and they rushed to death,
And the feeble heart grew strong,
As they poured like a flood on the hated foe,
And dealt with a patriot's rage the blow
To avenge their country's wrong !
And I saw that Victory knew her sons,
That the day was for the Free!
And I bent say head to the goddess dear,
As the zephyrs sung the last thrilling cheer,
And I honored Liberty ! Z.
UNTIED ►STATES CIROUT COURT--tilidge9
Grier and Cadwalader.—The case of the Jeffer
sonian newspaper was called up yesterday morn
ing. Mr. Ashton, the assistant District Attorney,
read the amended information, which sets forth
that the articles published in the Jefferson:an
were circulated with intent to prevent enlistments ;
with intent to vilify and bring into contempt the
persons in whom the administration of the Omni
inent is vested.
Judge Grier said the amendment was no more
specific than the original information.
Mr. Reed was of opinion that the answer already
filed would apply to the amendment.
Judge Cadwalader suggested that the District At
torners construction of the act of Congress was
that it authorized a censorship of the press.
It was finally agreed that the case t,honld lbo set
down for argument on Monday next, and in the
meantime the information could again be amended.
DISTRICT COURT—Judge Stroud.—Mosely &
Ball vs. Evans & Carter. This was an action to re
cover the amount of u consignment, m 1851, to San
Francisco. The plaintiffs made a consignment of
coal, vinegar, bread, and crackers to the defend
ant?, to sell on commission, and the defendants
undertook to render an account. The plaintiffs
alleged that the goods were received and disposed
of by the defendants, but that they never rendered
an account.
The defendants reply that they sent an account
stated to the plaintiffs in 1851, giving a full state
ment of the sale, by which it appears that the
freight exceeded the amount of the sale $4.00.
The defendants proposed not to make any charge
of this surplus, but to consider the transaction as
square. This amount was reeeit•ed by plaintiff,
and no objections made to it until this suit was in
stituted, eight years and nine months after the ac
count was rendered. Under this state of facts,
defendants contend that, having sent the account
stated, that provision of the statute of limitation
which excludes merchants and factors from the ope
rations of the statute until an account stated has
been made, vouches their ease.
Judge Stroud charged the jury, after which they
retired.
DISTRICT COVRT Judge Sherwood.
Amelia Ilartranft vs. Charles De Grath. This was
an action to recover damages for breach of promise
of marriage, and the testimony produced, and the
novelty of the defence, caused considerable merri
ment in the court-room. It was alleged by plain
tiff that the defendant had visited her regularly
and constantly for some time ; and finally, in the
month of December last, entered into the agree
ment to marry her, of the breach of which - she
complains.
The witnesses called testified to the attention paid
her by the defendant, and also to the fact that on
one occasion, when the plaintiff heard that defend
ant was engaged to be married to another lady, she
fainted, and upon her'reeovering, and while he was
calming her agitation, he renewed his promise. A
letter was produced in court and read, in which he
addresses her as t; My dear wife," and
- proceeds to
give her a graphic description of his journey to a
village in New York, the feast of cherries he en
joyed on the road, and his ardent wish that his dear
Amelia might have been with him to share his
pleasures.
The counsel for the defendant stated that he was
a very erratic man, and did not remember five
minutes afterwards anything he had uttered in
conversation before that interval. In proof of this,
Mr, first stated that his client had failed to make
his appearance in court yesterday morning, although
he had been frequently notified of it, and had pro
mised to attend.
