THE NATIONAL CRISIS.
THE DUTY OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
The Boston Advertiser thinks the Union de
monstration in Virginia and Tennessee ought
to be followed up with corresponding acts on
the part of Mr. Lincoln and the Republican
party. We copy a portion of its article on that
subject :
It now becomes the imperative duty of the
Republican party to lend its active assistance,
in strengthening those who have at last begun
to make head against secession. They have
gone to their people with the assurances that
the general apprehensions which have pre
vailed were unfounded, and the people have
sustained them. How far the victory is trace
able to assurances, not to any propositions, held
out by Republican leaders, may be seen from
the fact that Mr. Nelson, one of the chief lead
ers in Tennessee, wee by his own confession
influenced at a most critical moment to an en
tirely.different course of action, by a timely
suggestion made in committee by Mr. Adams.
Honor and patriotismalike forbid that the
Republican party shoul now fail to make good
the expectations, on which the men of the
border States are acting so nobly and effec
tively, in holding their people to the Constitu
tion and the Union.
To do this requires no sacrifice of principle,
for, as we long since contended, the border
Stated' are moved by a vague apprehension for
their own safety, which it was never proposed
to endanger, and not by a fanatical devotion
to abstract doctrines as to the Territories,
which as they can be shown is not a practical
question unless we choose to make it such.—
No sacrifice of any prestige is required of us,
nor auk compromise of any rightful claim,
since the appeal now comes to us, not before,
but after the border States have taken their
stand for the Union, and sines Mr. Lincoln's
aceeseon to the Presidency is now assured,
and is no longer the subject of any real or
imaginary agreement or bargain outside of the
Constitution itself. And no sacrifice of honor
is required, for there is no party which cannot
afford to strengthen the bonds which unite
them to those who acknowledge the ties and
obligations of a common patriotism, however
properly it may refuse to negotiate with those
who are in armed rebellion against lawful
authority.
We' cannot believe, therefore, that either
good policy or inclination will suffer the Re
publican party to decline following up the
substantial victory which has been achieved
in the border States—in Maryland and Ken
tucky, as well as Tennessee and Virginia—by
affording such simple guarantees as will remove
all trace of the effect of. Democratic calumnies,
so industriously circulated for four years past,
and by taking measures to prove to all that
the possession of'territory hereafter to be ac
quired, is the only tangible object 'which the
leaders of secession can assign for the insane
proceedings which they counsel. We have.
stood upon,onr Toeco,9l,,one throughthe„os4--
cal moments of the contest. ;'let thehour of
substantial success be the hour of magnanimity
and of generous consideration, even for the
unfounded apprehensions of those whom we
acknowledge as fellow patriots and brethren.
REPUBLIOAN VIEW Or jprEasoN DAVIS.
The Boston Advertiser, an able Republican
journal, says that if it had no other evidence,
the inaugural address of the new President
of the " Confedrate States" is proof of the un
usual wisdom with which the Secessionists
a'otod when they elected Jefferson Davis to that
office. It credits him with as marked a combi
nation of the qualities most needed for his work
as any revolutionary leader ever exhibited, and
adds:
As the leader of the Cotton States in their
movement against the General Government,
whether the controversy is to be carried on by
civil measures only, or by sterner methods, to
which he professes himself prepared, though
unwilling to resort, this Government could have
no more dangerous enemy than Mr. Davis,
and this fact, we believe, needs to be more
widely recognized than it is among our people.
Because Mr. Davis has led the extreme South,
many have come to regard him as possessing
the personal qualities end weaknesses of the
,‘ fire-eaters.' But Mr. Davis is, on the con
trary, cool-headed, far - sighted and not hasty.
What he says or does is not the result of crazy
impulse, but of 001 determination, and is sup
ported not by the temporary strength of frenzy,
but by real intellectual and moral power. In
abort, he is an antagonist who challenges re
spect as well as the utmost vigor and caution
in opposition, and one whom any statesman
might rejoice to encounter in a high national
contest, were he of any country save our own,
and were the matter in debate anything except
the Union.

TIITIOIN—UNION OR DISUNION-..PEACE icgt
WAR.
From the N. Y. Tournal of Commerce.
The Republicans, who have so lately become
Union men, and who are now so constantly
professing the deepest love for the Union, hav
ing done all that they could to destroy it, are
oven to-day unwilling to preserve it on any
other terms than the submission of the slave
holding South to the narrow, sectional, anti
slavery Chicago Platform. They denounced
all Southern men and Northern National men
during ther presidential contest, because they
gave warning of the danger. The cry of the
faithful lookout—" Breakers ahead !"—was
construed into a threat to intimidate. What then?
Ought the South rather, if they intended to
secede, to have kept dark about their purpose,
and ought they then to have seceded suddenly,
without giving the North any notice, any warn.
ing beforehand ? They loved the Union too
well to act thus. And if they had acted thus,
would that have pleased the Republicans any
better ? No. Nothing would satisfy them but
this one thing—this impossible thing, that
Southern men, the descendants of Revolution
ary sires, should tamely submit to serronder
and yield up their rights, their equality in the
Union, and their honor! This, I say, is import--
simple. Time will prove it to be so.
The Republicans do not appear to compre
hend at all the real condition of things. They
seem to have ne other or higher idea than
party, party, party ! Party before Union !
Party before everything! They really appear
(many of them, at least,) to suppose that the
revolution is only a farce, and this very belief
of theirs is daily helping to convert it into a
bloody tragedy. They seem to think that the
dissolution of the Union, so dreaded by all our
good and - true statesmen of the past, and now
an accomplished fact, staring us in the :face
every day, is only "a political game to destroy
the Republican party." Oh, for some of- the
spirit of that, great man, whom many even of
these Republicans still profess to admire:—"l
will not hear of 'MY PARTY,' Sir, when MY
COUNTRY is in dangers" That, glorious old
spirit has well nigh died out. There seems a t
least to be Itery little of it among the majority
of Northern men to-day. Party is a little ob
ject, close under their noses, and they look at
that, and at nothing else. They seem incapa
ble of enlarging their views, of looking ahead
into the future. Poor, miserable, short-sighted
men, the dupes of selfish political demagogues,
where will you and your party and your party
leaders be, a hundred years hence? Buried
out of sight. But your posterity will then be
living on the earth, and their 'temporal happi
ness or misery, the Union prosperity, or the
disunion, division, subdivision and gradual an
nihilation of what was Once OUR 00IIATAI I will

ence, utterly and forever broken up and de
stroyed; are you not willing to sacrifice your
party to save your country 7 The one or the
other must be destroyed. It is an absolute and
inevitable necessity; and no argument, or inge
nious sophistry, or artful dodging of the great
question of the day can possibly evade or re
move that necessity. The great evil of the
the times is that accursed party spirit of which,
and of the consequence of which Washington
so prophetically forewarned us in his Farewell
Address.
A TRICK OF THE NO-COMPROMISERS—FATAL DE-
LIISION
"Inauguration first, adjustment afterward,"
is the motto of Mr. Chase, and the cry of the
no-compromise Republicans. ltwould eeem to
carry with it the idea that there would then be
a compromise of the slavery question, but such
is not Mr. Chase's meaning of it, nor the
meaning of those who have adopted it. It is
adopted merely to gain time—to defeat any
measures of the Peace Conference or of the
Congress from being adopted—to keep the
border States quiet. It is the tub thrown to the
whale. Chase and the coercionists think if
they can only stave off a compromise until after
the 4th of March, all will be plain sailing with
them afterward. They know that nothing can
be done after that, until the re-assembling of
the neat Congress. In the meantime they will
try what force can accomplish. They 'Will at
tempt to re-take the forts that the seeding
States have in their possession. They will
station vessels off the Southern harbors to col
lect revenue. That will inaugurate civil war_
Tha forts now in possession of the seceders will
be defended, and those in possession of the
Federal Government attacked. The border
slave States, by sympathy and interest, will be
drawn into the Southern Confederacy, and in
that way the civil war will become general.—
Then will follow years of border strife, alarms,
fluctuations and depression in business, and
paralyzation of the industry of the country.
That old, substantial and conservative journal,
the Philadelphia Inquirer, sees the danger of
any further postponement of the matter, and
says:
"Our political diffieultiee should be settled
before the 4th of March. There are many good
people who think they will be more readily
adjusted after that day than before_ This we
regard as a fatal delusion. No lover of his
country, and, to come down to party, no honest
Republican, should desire to see that day arrive
without a, final and satisfactory settlement of
Atheetiffereastoewbetwoesiatut , North awl the South,
as both country and party will suffer by the
postponement. In the meantime, will the in
dustrial interests make themselves heard and
felt emphatically at Washington? The precious
moments are flying rapidly away."
An immediate settlement is demanded by every
consideration of patriotism, peace and the in
dustrial interests of the country. There should
be no delay. As our Philadelphia co temporary
well says, the precious momenta are flying ra
pidly away, and the opportunity now presented
for an adjustment will, if not improved, be soon
gone, not to return. Let the 4th of March pass
Without an adjustment s and all is lost.—Cinain

REPUBLICAN DOCTRINES BEFORE TUE BLED-
TION
The fallowing Republican titbit is taken from
the Chicago .Democrat, one of Mr. Lincoln's
home organs. It is a report of a crowded Re
publican meeting at the "Wigwam," in Chi
cago, to hear speeches from the Hon. John P.
Hale, of New Hampshire.; the Hon. James R.
Doolittle, of Wisconsin; and the Hon. Mr.
North, of Minnesota, just before the election.
Long John's paper says :
Mr. Hale preached the whole gospel of Re
publicanism. lie took up the slavery question
in its moral and social aspect, as well as its
political relation, and demonstrated the duty
of every good citizen to fight against this mon
strous evil, and to overcome it. He stated that
"every being Mated by the, Almighty in the
human form is entitled to walk this earth equal
in right before God and the law." He said
this was the cardinal doctrine and the chief
corner-stone of the Republican party,
Mr. Hale took hold of the disunion humbug,
and exposed its utter hollowness. He said
that no government on the face of the earth
was so strong as this; and that after the elec
tion of Mr. Lincoln it would be stronger than
ever. He said that at no time had there been
any danger of disunion. It was a humbug cry,
used for the purpose of scaring the North.—
Even in 1850, when this disunion farce was
played with a heavier east and with more ac
cessories than ever before, and when Clay and
Webster were making those renowned speeches
for the Union with which every one is familiar,
these two statesmen could not have met each
other in the eye, without bursting out into a
laugh at the humbug they were practicing. It
was all humbug now; and the only difference
was that the people knew it.
Every word, says the Democrat, that Mr.
Hale uttered, found an echo in the breast of his
hearers.
The Providence (R. I.) Journal, a Republi•
can paper, gives frequent and earnest expres
sions to ite COnvictions in affirmance of the
duty laid on the representatives of the Repub
lican party to strengthen the hands of South
ern ennrerv adees in the harder elaveholding
States by such conciliatory measures as shall
remove the pretexts of the disunion agitators.
It says:
"We must remember that if the tide of dis
union has been checked, it is because these
brave and loyal and patriotic men of the Border
States have stood like an inmovable dike
against its ownward course, and have said
'hither shalt thou come and no further.' Let
their noble services be frankly acknowledged.
We confess that when we see these true men in the
Border States standing up so fairly, our earnest
and honest desire is to do whatever we can con
sistently and without a sacrifice of principles,
to strengthen, their bands. They cannot, they
do not ask us to do what we deem wrong. But
in all measures of expediency we would go to
the very verge of our beliefs to settle any ques
tions of difference with them."

A word about the Crittenden Compromise,
It is objected to as extending slavery south
ward into territory which we may hereafter
acquire, but which we have not fot yet. Let
us see : The territory alluded to must be
Mexico—for the present, at least. Now sup
pose the golden dreams and wonderful projects
of our Southern filibusters could be realized,
and Mexico become the property of liJ Ede Sam,
(which many good people believe would be a
blessing to all concerned,) what then 'l' Would
it become slave territory under the Crittenden
arrangement? It would, nominally, for thirty
or forty days, but no longer. By that time
there would be a constitution, or comitituttens,
formed by the people, and Mexico, divided
into convenient parcels, would come into the
Union as States, free States, and the question
of slavery would there end ; for it is only while
it is a Territory, simply, that this compromise
protects slavery, and as soon as that. Territory
possesses a sufficient population, and forms a
State Constitution, it is admitted as a State,
with or without slavery, as the people may
prefer. But the fact is, Mexico has already
that population; it has 8,000,000 of people, is
thickly inhabited. Its territorial existence
would t,berefore be short, and consequently the
period during which slavery would have to be
protected also short--so short that slavery
would not have time to gain a foothold en the soil
before the whole question would be settled by
subdividing it, and admitting it as States, free
States, because there is no slavery there now,
and the people there are opposed to the insti
tution. Why, then, should not the North
accent an arrangement entirely for their benefit,
especially when urged to accept it by CirtSite who
have the most reason to complain of tt ?
The recent developments of Mr. Lincelespub
lie views respecting his power to coerce• the
seceded States, and the unmistakable evidence
of a grand rally of the Republican party, to
gether with the impertinent cry of the Tribune
for "No Compromise"—" No Concessions,"
and " the Constitution as it is,"—as if the- in
coming Administration was not originally
pledged to the Chicago interpretation, render
the hope of a peaceful settlement of our diffi
culties a matter of impossibility ; and our last
refuge is therefore " A National Convention."
The people have heretofore relieved Congress
from every extraordinary responsibility. They
have, in truth, the power, and they only, to
preserve the American Union. Especially now,
when the experience of the new occupant of the
Presidential office is ascertained by his own
assertions to be lamentably limited and his
supposed power to understand the wants of the
country may require a long time before it ears
be conveyed or revealed to the people.
With scarce a feeling of solemnity do the Re
publicans at large contemplate the horrible,re
suit of a coercive policy. They are haunted
with a determination to make the people acqui
esce in their fanatical doctrines, and in order
to cover up their real designs, salt. with perfect
coolness, and not a shadow of shame, "if we
have a government ?" The inquiry itself is
attractive to the minds of" many who believe
that Mr. Lincoln will use astonishing means
to convince the world that we have a govern
ment ; but the CAUSE of the unfortunate oppo
sition to a Republican Administration is saga
ciously avoided, it being the most deplorable
and censurable that was ever conceived in the•
land of Washington. Let every high-minded
and patriotic citizen examine the source of that
fearful hared to the party doctrines of Mr.
Lincoln which is at this period existing in many
portions of the - Union We have a government,.
when that government is not burdened or mu.
tilated with sectional symptoms ! We have a
government, when the duties of the President
are performed after the model rule of George
Washington; and we have a government, when
patriotic measures are not allowed to give place
to party spleen. Let censure fall first .r.:ltere
the ground-work of rebellion began—thii Re
publican Convention. Let censure fall upon
these mischievous politicians, and upon all who
have weakened the government by their stub
born attachment to prineiplea alike cruel and,
unconstitutional.
As Americans, we have cause to feel indig
nant as well as sorrowful when we observe that.
the fraternal conduct of our forefathers has
been set aside as no longer fit to be called a,
precious example. We grieve at the tokens of
departed pride, such as our. best heroes and
statesmen *ere wont to maintain; and need
we feel ashamed to utter a protest which comes
from the heart, against the prootedings of a
party whose leader is applauded for his very
ignorance,.and whose conception of a good gov
ernment is apparently absurd ? The remedy,
aye, the remedy, for too much fanaticism and
too great a tendency to.coorcion and war, is a
National Convention. The people are eager
for it, and should be gratified. Mr. Lincoln
himself might easily escape through it, the
charge of future incompetency, and onr coun
trymen at the South would soon find. it their
province as well as pleasure to endorse- the de
cision and unite with us in songs of gratitude.
