"The Republicans Silent."
The Patriot and Union, in an article
under the above caption, finds fault with
the Republican members of Congress for
not
. speaking out and proposing some
measures for the settlement of existing
difficulties. The Republican members are
punning a judicious and sensible course.
They listen with patience to the objurga
tion' of the Dieunioniats, and then, treat
ing them with the silence they deserve,
address themselves to pushing forward
the public business. In this way more
actual work has been accomplished, al
ready, than is frequently accomplished in
three mouths. It has been done, too, in
the'first fortnight of the session, a season
usually wasted in rambling debates.—
Dorobtleis the time will arrive when it
will be necessary for the Republican
members to speak out firmly and with
emphasis. Bat at present the debate is
left precisely where it should be left, to
the Southern members, who are defining
their positions for and against the Union.
There is no need of Republican speeches
on that point. Everybody knows that they,
to a man, are for the Union ! The Sams-
ItiOnilltS would gladly draw them into a
wordy war of crimination and recrimina
tion, in order to irritate the members
from the Border States into joining the
Secession ranks. But in this they are
disappointed. The Republicans prefer to
do the public business, and leave the mo
nopoly of wrangling to the advocates of a
Southern Confederacy.
Concessions and Compromises.
We notice, with regret, that some of
the public journals of the country, which
heretofore pretended to' be Republican,
are now, since the triumph of the party,
talking about concessions and compro
mises. We reiterate what we have fre
quently asserted before, that any depart
ure from the principles upon which the
Republican party stands, or any conces
sion which affects the practical benefit to
the country of those principles, is not only
a virtual desertion of them, but a betrayal
of the confidence of the people. A few
years ago, our party existed only in the
immutable truths which form its creed.
Those truths, founded in the nature of our
governmental institutions, needed no ap
peal to the reason or passions of our peo
ple. They found an endorsement in the
conscience of every community where
men were freo to think. Being axiomat
le, they are invincible. Promulgated by
a few brave men, without any prospect of
success Sete their inherent merit, they
have commended themselves to the good
um ; of the American people, gaining by
virtue of their own strength, until a ma
jority of our intelligent citizens, uninflu
enced by any motive save the prosperity
ail reputation of our common country,
have acknowledged them as
-the rules by
*Web the republic should be governed.
At the ballot box, that people have imper
atively demanded the recognition of those
prinaiples,in the administration of our
government. If the people are the sov
ereigns, the people have a right to say in
what manner the affairs of the country
shall be conducted, and inasmuch as this
demand has been explicitly made, our
representatives in the National Legisla
tare have no right:to disregard it by any
departure from the platform for which
their constituents have asked their sup
port. If the principles of Republicanism
were matters of mere expedience, instead
of absolute truths, having their existence
in the fundamental theory of our Institu
tions, there would be less in this view,
and less reason in deprecating any oencili.
Won of opposite factions, which can only
be made by a sacrifice of some portion of
the ground upon which we stand. But
sre now stand, we cannot retreat before
the aggressions of our assailants, and
yield, in the least, to their selfish and ar-
AVM' &minds, without casting aside the
whole :aria of our national policy and
ptdling away the corner-stone of our lib
erties-,-the power of the people. In truth,
Ws *re inclined to the opinion that this
Intekhltdown policy has its origin in some
thing besides a desire to strengthen the
*ening administration. That idea could
not hate influenced such a movement.
Tiara confident that Mr. Lincoln's course
will need simply the candid attention of
our citizens, to become acceptable to all
parts of the , country, and all classes of our
population. At all events, it would be .
far bitter .to try the experiment, before
beedlesaly casting aside all the.adatuitages
to be seined trim it.
A Democratic Opinion
The editor of a Democratic paper, the
New York Sunday Atlas, says "there
is but one word in the language strong
enough and plain enough to give a name
to those members of our National Govern
ment who are 'resigning,' or in other
words, deserting, at this crisis. Be they
Secretaries, clerks, or in any other respon.
(Able capacity connected with the admin
istration of the government, they are
cowards, and deserve the pointing finger
of national scorn, when they run away
from their responsibilities at the moment
of danger and darkness, after Saving en
joyed honors and emoluments through the
period of ease and sunshine. What would
I be thought of the military officer who
'resigned' at the moment of entering bat
tle, after having figured proudly at parade
or review ?—or of the naval commander
who skulked under hatches in a storm,
under the excuse that 'he could no longer
consistently hold his command,' when he
had been the most glowing and gallant of
fair weather sailors No man is too low
or insignificant, if he holds any power or
authority, to bo amenable to this sharp
epithet, when he deserts a duty which
grows always more honorable when well
done, as it becomes more dangerous or
more difficult. No man is too high for
the same national curse, when he proves
recreant ; for there is always a public
ready to, cry, with Richelieu,
"—On thy head—yea, though it more a crown—
I launch the curse— l"
"If the republic must fall, better to fall
with it—we tell every man holding high
official position in the government—bet
ter for present reputation—better for
place in the history yet to be written—
better than to bear the recorded shame of
this cowardice of desertion. There were
two hundred and ninety-nine who fell at
Thermopylae : they were all honored.
There was one who dared to survive, and
even Plattee could not afterwards wash
away the memory."
To Quiet the South.
The Buchanan organ at Washington is
in a dreadful state of apprehension, and
generously and patriotically advises Lin
coln and Hamlin to resign in order to
quiet the Southern States and save the
Union. The place-holders of Looofocoism
are so accustomed to tremble at the crack
of the slave driver's whip, that no absurdi
ty or pusillanimity on their part will
surprise the country. But it was hardly
to be anticipated, after the battle that has
just been fought and the glorious victory
that has been won, that such advice as
this would be proffered to the triumphant
chiefs of the people. This organ of the
Democracy can conceive of no way of
preserving the Union but by ignoring the
Constitution and permitting the minority
—an oligarchy of slaveholders—to rule
the majority. We opine there is a more
excellent way, which was understood by
our fathers, and which*will be adopted by
Lincoln and Hamlin, wlien the former
takes possession of the White House, and
the latter sits in the Presidential chair of
the Senate.
THE WHITE MAN'S PARTY.--The
white working men of the country should
not fail to note the recent action of the
Republicans in Congress in preserving
the public lands as homes for free white
men, and that their first act on re-assem
bling in Congress was to re-enact the
Homestead Bill. This law is but an ear
nest and instalment of that legislation
which shall protect and bless the free la
bor of the country by giving every indus
trious and willing man an opportunity to
make himself and his children independ
ent and comfortable. This sort of legis
lation is better than talking about slavery
and making new laws for its extension,
according to the habit of the Southern
Democracy.
THE PHILADELPHIA RESOLUTIONS.-
The •'Pittsburg Gazette" says of the reso
lutions adopted by the Union meeting in
Philadelphia :—"The feeling in the public
mind, here, upon a perusal of the resolu
tions, was that of unmitigated disgust.
Their abject tone excited only loathing.
The resolutions concede everything to the
South, surrender every principle for
which we fought in the late election, cast
the whole blame upon the North, and put
the North, as far as they can, in the atti.
tude of a 'enpplicant. The people of
Pennsylvania will not endorse these reso
lutions. When they speak it will be in a
different key, entirely. They gave their
votes to Lincoln honest and manfully, and
they do not intend to apologize for it."
A UNION CONVENTION Nos Kistrrumr.—An in
formal meeting of the Presidential Electors
was held at Frankfort on the 10th, from which
a recommendation was issued for the holding
of a State Convention of the Constitutional
Union party. The object is to consider the
tendency of the present agitation throughout
the country. The members of the other par
ties in the State are requested to hold similar
Conventions, at the same time and place, so
that a full consultation may be had. The place
fixed upon is Louisville, and the time, January

FROM THE FEDERAL CAPITAL
Correspondence of [be Telegraph.]
WABHINGTON, Dee, 16, 1860
The reported proceedings of the Unionmeet
ing in Philadelphia, last Thursday, and the
rumored resignation of Gen. Cass, yesterday,
have had diverse effects in this city. While
there is an abiding and a determined devotion to
the Union among the masses in all parts of the
country, such assemblages as the one convened
under the name of a "Union Riding" in your
commercial metropolis, serve but ono purpose,
and that is in giving prominence to a few gen
tlemen always anxious for notoriety. There is
no danger threatened to the Union in the
North—no evidence needed of the loyalty of
the people to the Constitution and laws of the
land, and therefore no necessity for these pop•
nlar exhibitions of patriotism and ebulition of
patriotic essays in the confectionary of lan
guage. Such peace offerings are scorned by the
secessionists because they know that they are
prompted by sordid motives and lust for gain.
They reply to the orators of such assemblages,
that there are differences existing between the
North and the South that cannot be patched
I or harmonised by the merchants of any city,
and particularly by those who are _so ready to
sacrifice honest conviction and a declared sacred
opinion, to the possible chances of monopoli
sing the trade of a certain locality, and crush
ing the euergies of an over-grown rival sister
in business. If there are Union meetings to be
held, let them be convened where the danger
prevails. Let these declarations of devotion to
the Union emanate from where disunion exists,
and there may a prospect arise on the darkened
horizon of the country's destiny that peace and
confidence will be restored to their power and
influence. In the same view the rumored re
signation of Gen. Cass strikes no one with any
other feeling than that of disgust and contempt.
The plan which he offers in justification of
this step, is poorly miserable, because the De
partment over which he presides is not looked
to for advice . = a subject involving either the
safety of public property or the peace of a com
munity. If the nubile property in" Charleston
is in danger now, it was equally so two months
ago, when every Douglas and Breckinridge
leader in that factious locality was declaring
that the election of Abraham Lincoln would be
tantamount to a dissolution of the Union.—
Then was the time to send troops to Charles
ton, to quell the malignancy of the political
demagogues who have since succeeded in arous
ing the angry passions and resentment of the
masses. If we are forced to the necessity of a
conflict with the people of Charleston, or of any
portion of the South, and blood should flow
from the encounter, farewell to the peace of
this continent for a century to come.
On the subject of coercion it is understood
that Judge Douglas is preparing one of his pow
erica arguments in favor of its application to
the people of the South: He is represented as
being very indignant at the course pursued by
the secesaionistar feels that the country Is-in
danger, and no doubt will propound a question
as to the cause of these difficulties, as he face
tiously inquired, while in Harrisburg last sum
mer, the reason why Pennsylitini4" industry,
with her mineral and a,gricultural resources,
were not protected. Stephen A. Douglas is the
last man in the land to recommend coercion in
the present juncture of. our Federal relations.
The cause of all this trouble is easily traced to
him, and it would serve to allay the acrimony
that now prevails, if he would remain silent
during the remainder of his Senatorial term.—
His hope of regaining confidence is reposed in
such a silence, and of voting to sustain the Ad
ministration of Abraham Lincoln in its great
measures of sound national policy. If Senator
Douglas adopts this course, be can be of-great
service to his country, and perhaps procure for
himself the peace and contentment attending
virtuous and patriotic actions. If, on the other
hand, he enters on a crusade to gratify his per
sonal spleen and spiteful disappoiniment, he
will become more of a wreck than his ap
pearance nowpresents, on the troubled waters
of political agitation, and most undoubtedly
sink beneath their fmon-crested waves.

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 17
SWATR.-11r. CLARK, (N. H.,) offered a re
solution of inquiry, requesting the President to
inform the Senate what number of men ate
stationed at Forts Moultrie and Sumpter ;
whether, in his opinion, the number is suffi
cient to defend those Forts against any attack
or domestic violence; whether additional men
have been ordered to either el the said Forts, or
any steps have been taken to put them in
a position to resist any attack ; in whose cus
tody is the arsenal at Charleston S. C ; what
arms and property are kept there, and if remov
ed, by whom, and why they were not put in
the possession of officers of the United States
upon requisition ; and further, what instruc
tions have been given to the officers of the said
Forts in case a demand of surrender 'is made
upo n them by any person or authority ; also
copies of any correspondence from the com
mander Of the American Army relative to the
necessity of supplying the officers of the said
Forts with protection.
The consideration of the resolution was ob
jected to by Mr. Baows, (Miss.,) and it was laid
over under the rules.
On motion of Mr. FITCH, (Ind.,) 15,000 ad
ditional copies of the President's Message and
accompanying documents were ordered to be
printed.
Mr. Wirsorr, (Miss.) offered a joint resolution
to repeal a resolution passed June 15th, 1860,
for the relief of Cora. IL Degroot. Referred to
the Committee on Claims.
Mr. Gam, (M 0.,) moved that Wednesday
and Thursday of next week be set apart for
Territorial business. Agreed to.
The bill providing for the carrying out of the
existing treaties between the United States and
Mexico was taken up.
Mr. Ivaasos, (Ga.,) explained that the object
of the bill was to pay the claims against the
Mexican government out of the moneys in the
Treasury appropriated by Mexico according to
the treaty.
Mr. Mums, (Me.,) objected to the bill because
it would lead to the revision of all decisions in
the matter. He was willing to have a new
commission for the examination of the claims,
and moved to amend accordingly.
Mr. B&vaxn, (Del.,) objected to the entire
bilL
House.—Mr. &Evan, delegate from Wash
ington 'Territory, presented a bill for the de
fence of Puget's Sound, and the entrance of Col
umbia river.
Mr. COCHRANE, (N. Y.) offered a preamble set-
ting forth that a conflict of opinion, threatening
the peace and harmony of the Union has arisen,
concerning the true intent and meaning of
that part of the Constitution in relation to Af
dean Slavery within the Territories df the
United States, and that a majority of the Su
preme Court, in the Dred Scott case, recognize
slaves as property, etc.; and as the opinion of
the Supreme Court, delivered by Chief Justice
Taney,' it should be received as the settlement
of the question as therein discussed and decided.
Mr.' Cootram proposed an amendment to
the Constitution, that Congress may establish
governments for any Territory, and the people
there in having adopted a State Constitution,
may be admitted into the Union ; and neither
Congress nor the people, during its Territorial
condition, shall pass any law to annnl or impair
the right of the property therein. Referred to
the select committee.
Mr. FLORENCE, (Pa.) submitted the following:
Resolved, That the following amendment be
pioposed to the ConEtltution of the United
States. The right of property in slaves 18 re
cognised, and no law shall be passed and noth
ing shalrbe done to impair, obstruct or prevent
Ihe full and free enjoyment and use of other
property of the United States. No new States
shall be admitted into the Union without the
consent of two thirds of all the members of
both branches of Congress ; and the vote shall
be taken by yeas and nays, which shall be en
tered on the journals, and every bill for such
purpose shall be subject to the approval or ob-
jection of the President of the United States,
as in other cases, excepting that when returned
with his objections it shall require three-fourths
of all the members of both houses of Oongress
to pass it, notwithstanding.
The resolutions were referred to the Select
Coinmittee.
