Although unaccustomed to write on the sub• ject matter iu question, it may not be amiss in neh perilous tithes for even a write, to make an attempt to sound the alarm. It ECCIUS to me our people are but hall awake, neither pulpit nor press, appear to see the danger, or to speak out as they should.— We need all the virtue and talent of the loyal people to stem the tide of iniquity that is rolling in upon us. When men in trust swerve f'ro•n the truth, and are recreant to the principles of moral honesty, (and even sometimes of common de cency,) what have we to expect from such a source. When I, read of the cold-blooded hatcheries, (enacted at Memphis and New Orleans,) that would disgrace an age of barbarism, and know too, that it is winked at by those in high au thority, and that the very men that perhaps who instigated or at least sanctioned such hor rible barbarities. are waiting and expecting. to be invested with full power to sway the des tinies of our beloved Country ; I cannot but involuntarily exclaim great and merciful God, whither are we drifting, whither are we verg ing ; for if those cruelties are perpetrated in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry. As I contemplate the madness of those who would blindly rivet their own chains, I am as tonished and amazed, and my soul is stired within me. Strange indeed that men in our Northern S. ales can be so blinded, by the hope of gain and the love of power as to willingly sell their coutnry and its dearest interests. The DemOcratic party, or its leaders, appear to be willing to admit the unrepentant rebel's of the South, with hands reeking with the hlood of their fellow citizens, into the councils of our nation, and wh"o that reflects serious') can predict anything but disaster, tv,:d perhaps utter ruin to the cause of universal liberty, should they succee I, What becomes of all the glorious victories achieved by our brave and heroic soldiers.if the South by the intrigue and treachery of traitors in our midst; should be suffered (with all their hostility to freedom and equal rights,) to gain the balance of power.— Such an event after spilling and wasting so much blood and treasure, would be appalling•. as it would provoke another and more terrible contest. What too becomes of the fame of Our no'ile Grant and his worthy compeers ? Would not the victors become the vanguished if treason and rebellion is set up nt a premium ? May the mercy of heaven for the sake of those who would deprecate and avert such a terrible cat astrophe. frustrate the designs of those wicked and infamous men: We think our country in a most critical condition, whilst we had the good, and faithful, and ever to be lamented Lincoln at the helm, we could look up and con fidently say, "all is well," we will yet outride the storm. And why could we so implicitly trust him simply because we know that in God was his refuge and strength, and that he ruled in righteousness. But we fear that the case is widely different at this time, and yet it does not appear to create much alarm. Is it not as ob ligatory upon us to have our fasts, and our days of humiliation, in this great and fearful moral struggle, as w hen arrayed in a physical •and deadly combat. Then we were willing to pro pitiate the Almighty Ruler of the universe ; mid to acknowledge that there was a God that ruled in the armies of heaven and earth, and dint His unseen hand was guiding and direct ing the affairs of this great nation. We then could walk softly with tue Load and honor and reverence name. But let us not be like un faithful Israel of old, who as soon as one evil was removed would turn their backs upon their Deliverer and thus were constantly proioking the God that protected them, and like unto ourselves from being the most highly favored nation existing, had lin. their repeated acts of disobedience their ! ationality entirely destroy ed. Let us take heed and beware tts the same God now rules the affairs of men. The Republican• Union party maintain that the Rebel Debt shall never b' paid, and that this should be incorporated into the Constitu tion. To this the Johnsou-democraer Ray no. The Republican-Union party maintain that the Federal Debt shall be paid and never re pudiated, and that this should be put into the Constitution. To this tho Johnson-democracy say no. The Republican.

The Republican-Union party say that the late slaveholders shall not receive pay for the slaves emancipated, and that all such claims shall be illegal and void, and that, to make is sure, the Constitution should so declare.

TIS-The people of the great West have n homely and forcible style of illustration. Au example of this is recorded by the Toledo (U.) Blade, in a conversation which occurred be int:en one of Andrew Johnson's "satraps ancl dependants" uud a Michigan colonel. The Johnsonian suggested that, as a soldier, the Michigan colonel ought to turn out and pay hie respects to President J. hnson on his arrival at Toledo. To which the colonel responded : "You may, but I will not, for I have no re pect for him." "But," quoth the Johnsonian, "you will go with us and show your respect for grant nut Farrago, who accompany him, won't you?" "My dear sir," replied the colonel, "there was once an old lady who kept a boarding house for laborers. One morning she came across a piece of tainted beef, which she purchased cheap and boiled for dinner. It 'smelt to heaven,' and not a boarder would touch it. That evening she sliced and fried Mint wouldn't do—it still smelt. The next morning she made hash of it—but it smelt lo: der and louder, when a.boar. er, who could stand it uo longer, spoke his mind : 'Look here, old lady, you may bile it, you may fry it. or you may spile good potatoes by hashin' it with 'em, but iliat meat Btit,lc,v, and you cannot crowd it down on mein any shape.' Now," continued the very positive colonel, "you may take Johnson boiled, fried, stewed, or sandwich ed between two as good potatoes as Grant and Farragut, and he stinks.

Sir : Your circular for the call of the Wilkes Booth tion%eution to meet in Philadelphia on the 14th inst., has been duly received Iv der the frank of the mai tient Pennsylvania Senator. I suppose I am indebted t i the Honorable Connecticut rena gade for this early "smoking out" attention.— Cor this work of extreme kindness he and you have my thanks. Most of tha apparent purpo- .es of the call met my entire approval, but. challis at a discount just now. No man nn- , willing to be deceived can mistake the latent object of the intended gathering rising as it does from the ashes of the assassin. Had 1,. hes oth nev, r lived, the C onvention wnutid err h,,re breo eattcd. Now, every sympa thizing friend of his foul deed, from Maine to California indorsed it!

Every bitter secessionist' every fighting rebel in the terrible war that has cost this na tion hundreds of thousands of lives and billions of money, every conniving traitor that has been struggling to tear down the Government that Washington planted and Lincoln saved, its •inging peons of glory to it. And . crery Press in the United States now advocatingit, is oblig ed to excuse, paliate and defend the buntings, murders and massacres continually cropping out throughout volcanic rebeldom. From a such sympathies, tendencies and operations; Mr. Randall, I would most respectfully respond, "Good Lord deliver me:" My conscience, my manhood, is my own, to me they are of more valuO than any office on earth.

The fact is, the whOIC preliminary business of courtship is one grand systematic course of mutual deception ; both parties per •iitently shut their eyes to each other's true littraeter, and insist upon investigating each oiler with attributes which neither posse'ms, old which none but angels ever do.
