THE UNION.
From the Journal of Commerce
The danger which overhangs the country at
the present moment is at last universally ac
knowledged. The day when it could be treated
as the imagination of “Union savers,” as a “dis
union bugaboo,” as “bullying,” or in any simi~
lar manner,‘ (we quote these expressions from
distinguished editors at the North,) has passed
away. All acknowledge the imminent danger.
But it is more imminent, and the prospect
darker, because of the constant determination
of men to shut their eyes to it. The leaders
of the Republican party, for some days past,
have been in a state of pitiable doubt. One
day they seem willing to do anything, and the
next day, when they imagine their peacable
expressions of yesterday may be taken as'yield
ing too much, they withdraw their implied pro
mises, and threaten fiercely.
The public mind is misled by the leaders,
and the state of feeling in the mass of the pop
ulation is changeable. This all results from
a misapprehension of the state of afl’airs at the
south. Men will not look the truth in the face.
Republicans, especially, shrink - from it, be
cause the future is to them especially dark and
threatening.
Let us state the facts in a few words, and
look straight at them. The American Union
will be dissolved unless the Republicans will
agree to amend the Constitution by allowing
Southern men to take their slaves into the com
mon Territories and hold them there as pro
perty. It may be that the South would be set
isfied with that portion of the Territories south
of the Missouri line. But unless‘the Republi
cans at once agree to this, the Union is gone.
We do not say that even this will now be in
time to save it. But this is the only chance.
If. is idle to stop now for recriminations; for
settling who is to blame; for disputing on old
issues. The Union is know in danger, the coun
try is lost, unless the dominant party at once
and forever sacrifice what they claim as a prin
ciple under the Constitution, by making the
converse of their principle a constitutional
‘ right. .
We have not heard the position of affairs bet
ter discussed than. in a conversation which we
overheard between an ardent Democrat and
' “ Union saver,” and an equally ardent Repub
lican. We condense the conversation, for the
sake of laying before our readers _a succinct
statement of the necessities of the times.
The discussion began with the accusation
that the Republicans had been misrepresented
at the South by the Journal of commerce and
other Democratic papers, andxhat the trouble
arose from these misrepresentations.
Democrat—lf we had told the people at the
South that you Republicans were in favor of
enforcing, or not opposed to the Fugitive Slave.
Law, and were not Abolitionists, would they
have believed us ?
Republican.——Yes, I think so. Why not?
Dem—They would have laughed at us.—
When the Abolitionists attacked the American
Tract Soeiety and endeavored to use its engines
to carry the anti-slavery war into the South,
dld not every Republican newaimper in New
York and elsewhere, as far as you know, abuse
and villify the conservative men of the Tract
Society ‘l' When John Brown invaded Virginia,
did not the Republican newspapers of New
York call him a. “brave old here,” a "martyr ;”
and did they not evidently sympathize with
him ‘3 ‘
Rep—That does not show that the Republi
can party, as a. party, have any such sympa
thies!
Dem. —-It is hard to separate a. party from
their leaders. But who passed the Personal
Liberty bills in Maine, Vermont, Massachu
setts, and elsewhere?
Rep.—The Republican party undoubtedly
did that in each State. But the PersonallLib
erty bills are null and void, for they are
unconstitutional; and they dont hurt any one.
Dem—l am not sure they areunconstitu
tionsl. That in Connecticut certainly is not.
But because a law is constitutional it is not
necessarily right. You Republicans are hmicted
with an insane notion that what is coustitu:
tion], is necessarily right. You claim that
electing a'president constitutionally is all right
and cannot. be found fault with. Suppose the
House of Representatives should refuse to pass
any Supply Bill for his Administration. It
would be constitutional, but would it be right?
There is no tyranny on earth so notoriously
oppressive as the tyranny of constitutional
majorities in some cases have been. But lam
not now discussing constitutional questions.—
rßoll me frankly what was the design, the
intent, the animus, with which the Personal
Liberty bills were passed? Were they not
designed to impede the free execution of the
Fugitive Slave Low.
Rep—l cannot deny that such was the intent,
but I think they may be excused as retaliatory
laws. South Carolina passed her law impris
oning free blacks, long before a Personal Lib
erty bill was passed at the North; and under
that she imprisoned colored citizens of Masse
chusetts coming there on ships, and does to
this day. Let her first repeal that not, before
she asks us to repeal our Personal Liberty
bills.
Dem—My friend, you and your party have
harped on that string long enough. The in'-
bune, the Post, and all your press, have been
Btultifying themselves about ltfill it is time it
was stopped. Do you know that Connecticut
does the same thing, and always did it? And
I believe Massachusetts, Vermont and Rhode
Island,—and in fact every New England State,
does it every day.
Rep—l don’t understand you. lam 3 Con
necticut man, and know no such law 011 1181'
statute books.
Dem—Then I know her better than you.—

will 'give up excluding the same blacks from
her territory. But let us have done with re
criminntions. The present danger to the coun~
try is, that men will waste precious hours in
disputing as to the cause of the difficulty 'and
who got us into it. Let us be patriots and try
to devise a way to get out of it that shall satisfy
us all.
Rep—Where is the point of danger, in your
opinion ‘3 ,
Dem—ln this: Southern disunionists are
determined to leave the Union. It. is useless
now to discuss whether they are justifiable, or
not. They are absolutely determined, and
will break up the country if they can. No
concessions will reach them. They are not
“ bullying,” but acting. They don’t want. you
to compromise; they don't ask any yielding.
But you Republicans have it in your power to
strengthen the conservative element. at. the
South. You may save the Union by making
conservative men enough in Southern States to
save them. If, as you any, we Democrats have
belied you, show the South at once in what we
have belied you.
Rep—How?
Dem—Are you in favor of enforcing the
Fugitive Slave Law?
Rep—l em, and always was. But. I don’t
like the obnoxious feature of making me help
the Marshal to catch slaves.
Dem—Bah! Almost every law of the lend
has the some feature. If a horse is stolen and
the thief resists, you are bound to aid the
Sheriff. If a. pocket is picked find a swell mob
attempts a rescue, you must help convey s
pickpocket. to jail. But. enough. You agree
to enforce a fugitive slave law?
Rep.’-—Willingly. Tell the South that.
Dem.—-—I will. Now as to the Personal Lib
erty bills. They amount to nothing, you say;
but is not their animus bad, and ought they not
to be repealed?
Rep—l never was in favor of them. They
were the measures of ultra men, and I om de
cidedly in favor of repealing them, and so are
a majority of our party. For, you must now
derstand that there is a division in our party.
I belong to the conservative wing. and I claim
Mr. Lincoln as belonging to that wing. We
can and we will repeal the Personal Liberty
bills. You may tell the South that.
Dem—Nothing remains but the Territories.
Can we agree as to that?
Rep.—l think not. I will never surrender
an inch of soil to become slave territory.
Dem—Then you expect to get rid of élavery
.by walling it in the South. '
Rep—l have nothing to do with getting rid
of it. I only say that into the Territories, where
I have a voice about it, it shall never come. The
States may take care of it within their borders.
Dem—But, my friend, you and I must not
close our eyes to the future of our country.—
Suppose the Union to survive, and your prin
ciple of free Territories to prevail, do you, dare
you, close your eyes to that nation of black!
that is increasing so rapidly in the Southern
States? The patriot who looks to the future
shudders at the idea of closing slavery within
the present limits. What will, in twenty, or
fifty, or a hundred years, become of those mil
lions of slaves? Which race will outgrow,—
overpower the other? How soon will you have
an empire of blacks in the South ? These are
the questions that are vastly more important
than the abstract question ofthe right ofSouth—
ern men to carry slaves into the Territories.
Have not the Republicans, over and over
again, declared that they had no fear of the
Dred Scott decision ‘3 That you know the
immigration into the Territories will take care of
that question? That the whole dispute has
been one of abstract principle, and not of prac
tical importance ‘2
Rep—So I believe; but it is principle, never
theless.
Dem—Well, than, has it not been a question
of principle under the Constitution? in point
of fact, a. purely legal question, whether under
the Constitution slavery can exist. in a. Terri
:gry 9or anywhere, except by express legisla
lon .
Rqa.—Yes. Constitution and common law.
Dem—Well, then, let us go back of that, and
end the question. I claim that slavery is low
ful in every part of the Territories. You claim
that it is lawful nowhere in the Territories.—
Let us draw the Missouri line, and agree that
it shall be lawful South of that. line. and not
lawful North of it; always leaving open the
omnipotent power of a. State to legislate it into
its territory North, or out of it South, when
ever 93 State arises. That will be no sacrifice
of your principle. Besides, what if it is the
sacrifice of a. principle? What is your princi
ple worth? What is its aim, object, basis? In
it not the United States? their good, their ben
efit, their future interests? Well; it is plain
as daylight now, that you can’t have both the
country and, the principle. You must yield the
principle, or you lose the country, for whose
good you uphold it. Take your choice, then.
You may have the country Without your prin
ciple, or you may have your principle without
the country .'
Rep—Has it come to the“!
Dem-4‘ has (7me to just that. The re
sponsibility of the crisis is on you and your
pnl'ly. We and our party are powerless in
this emergency. We fought with you to the
end, and are beaten. We foresaw the result,
and it. has come as w‘e anticipated. With us
and our party at the North, the South will not,
can not treat; for they‘regord us as conquered
and powerless. If we offer them terms, they
deny our ability to fulfill our promises. The
secessionisls among them abhor the Union.—
They tell us that they will go, whatever is done.
But you may save the Union now by showing
Georgia and Alabama conservative men that
you are not all Abolitionisis; that there is as
strong conservative party, even in the Repub
lican ranks; that you are willing to give them
all the privileges of copertners in the Union.
At least. try this last resort of peaceful men;
and when you havegnade to ae South 5 fair
offer of this kind—when you ave ofi‘ered to
repeal the Personal Liberty bills, to enforce the
Fugitive Slave law, to make an equitable divi
sion of the Territories—then, if the Southern
disunionists insist on leaving the Union, it will
be time for you to talk with a. clear conscience
about having done your duty. ‘
Rep—The Fugitive Law and the Personal
Liberty bills I can agree to. I don’t know
about yielding an to Territories. That is! in
fact, our party principle; the only principle
we all had in common. Your Menthol we
don't yield a principle if We P“_" 1" Into the
