ADDRESS Of Dtmocratic Members of Congress to the Dcmocnici of the United States. jVellow Civiukxs : Tho perilous con dition of our country demands that we should reason together, l'urty organisa tion, restricted within proper limits, is a positive good, and indeed essential to the preservation of public liberty. Without it the best Government would sqou degen erate intc tho wcrst of .tyrannies. In des potism tho chief use of power is in crush ing out party opposition. In our own country tho experience of tho last twelve mouths proves, more than any lesson in history, tho necessity of party orgauiza- tion. Ilio present Administration was chosen by a party, and in all civil acts aud appointments has recognized, and still docs, its fealty and obligations tc that .... - party. There must and will be au opno- sition. The publio safety and good do- po'icy of tho federal Governincnt. For manil it.

And as explanatory of theso tho follow- in" from Mr. Jcfforscn'8 first inaugural: " I ho support of tho Stato Governments in all their rights ns tho most competent admiuistratious of our domcstio conecrus and the surest bnlwork against anti re publican tendencies.

"Tho honest payment of our debts and sacred preservation of publio faith. "I'rcouom of Religion, trccdoin ot tho Press, and frocdom of person under tho protection of tho Habeas Corpus, and trial by juries impartially selected.'' Such, Democrats, aro tho principles of your party, essential to public liberty and to the stability and wiso administration of tho Government, uliko in poaeo and war. They aro tho principles upon which tho Constitution and tho Uuiou were founded ; and, under tho control of a party which adhoros to them, tho Constitution would bo maintained and tho Union could not bo dissolved Is tho policy of tho Democratic party wrong that it should bo disbanded? Its policy i3 consistent with its princi ples, and may bo summed up, from tho beginning, us follows: Tho support of liberty as against power; of tho people as against their agents and servants; aud of Stuto rights r.s against consolidation and . L it ,- . . oeutraiizca ucspccisiii; a simple govern ment; no publio debt; low taxes; no high protective tariff; no general system of in terual improvements by Federal authority; 110 National Dank; hard money for the Federal public dues; no assumption of State debts; expansion of territory; self government for tho Tarritories, subject only to tho Constitution; tho absolute compatibility of a union of tho States, 'part slave and part free;" the admission of new States, with or witnout slavery, as thoy may elect; non-iuterfcrenco by tho Feder al Government with slavery in Stato aud Territory, or in the District of Columbia; and; iiually, as set forth in the Cincinnati Platform, in 18f0, and reafUrmcd ill 1800 I'.bsclutc and eternal "repudiation of all sectional parties and platforms concerning domestic slavery which seeks to embroil the States aud incite to treason and armed resistance to law in the Territories, and wlwse avowed purpos-s, if consummated imiU end in civil war and ihsunion.'' Such was tlio ancient and tho recent policy of the Democratic party, running through a pericd of sixty years a policy consistent with the principL-s of the Con stitution, and absolutely essential to tho preservation of the Union. Does the history of the Democratic par ty prove that it ought to ho abandoned ? ''By their fiuits shall yo know them."- I .sectional parties do not achieve Union tn- uinphs.

Suoh wero tho ohoico fruits of Demo cratio principles and policy, earned out through tho wholo period during whioh tho Democratic party held tho power and administered tho Federal Government. such has been tho history of that party. It is a Union party, for it preserved tho Union, by wisdom, ponce, and compromise, for more than half a century. Then neither tho anciont principles, tho polioy, nor the past history of tho Demo cratic party rcquiro nor would justify its disbandiiicut. Is thero any thing in the present crisis which demands it ? Tho more immediate issue is, to maintaiu tho Constitution as it is, and to restore the Union as it was. To maintain the Constitution is to re spect .tlio rights of tho States and tho lib erties of tho ciiizen. It is to adhoro faith fully to tho very principles and polioy which tho Democratic party has professed for more than half a century. Let its history, and tho results, from tho begin ning, prove whether it has practised them. Wo appeal proudly to the record. Tho first step towards a restoration of tho Union as it was is to maintain the Constitution as it is. bo onr as it was maintained in fact, and not threatened with infraction in spirit and in letter, ac tual or imminent, tho Union was unbro ken. To rcstoro tho Union, it is csscntirj, first to givo assurance to every State and to tho people of every section that their rights and liberties and property will bo secure within the Union under the Constitution. Vhat assurance so doubly sure as the restoration to power of that ancient organized consolidated Democratic party which for six years 77 secure tho property, riglit3 and liberties of the Stato and of the people ; and thus did niaintaiu the Constitution and preservo the Union, and with them tlio multiplied blessings which distinguished us abpve all other nations? To restore tlio Union is to crush out sectionalism North and South. To begin the groat work of restoration through tho ballot-box is to kill abolition. Tho bitter waters of secession flowed first and arc led still from tho uneloan fountain abolitionism. That fountain must bo dried up. Annies may break down the power rf the Confederate Govcrumeut in the South ; but tho work of restoration can only bo carried on through political organization and the ballot in tho Nortli anil Wot. In this great work we cordi ally invite thu eo oper.itiou of1 all men of every party who are opposed to the fell sPirit o1' abolition, and who, in sincerity, vo the Constitution as it is and the I t r ... .1... ...... 1 union iu n was. iiei uiu uuau past, uury its dead, ltally, lovers of the Uuion, tho Constitution, and of liberty to the standard of the Democratic party, already in the field and confident of victory. That party is tho natural and prcsisteut enemy of ab olition. Upon this question its record as a natioua. organization, however it may have beeu at times with particular States, is clear and unqueiiljionablo.

In this sense tho Democratic party lias always sustained, and will now sustain, the government against all foes, at home or abroad, in the Nortli or the South, open or concealed, in offico or out of office, in peace or in war. If this is what the Republioan party mean by supporting thoGovernnicnt,it is an idlo thing to abandon the old and tried Demo cratic party, which for so many years and through so many trials supported, preset ved, and maintained tho Government of the Union. Dut if their real purpose bo to aid tho ancient enemies of tho -Democra cy in subverting our present Constitution aud form of government, aud, under pre tence of saving the Union, to erect a strong centralized despotism ca its ruins, tho Democratic party will resist them as the worst enemy to tho Constitution and tho Union, and to freo government every where. Wo do not pioposo to consider now the causes which led to the present uuhappy civil war. A fitter time will come hero after for such discussion JJut wo lcmind you now that co.Ml'iiOMtSE inado your Union, and coMriiOMisu fifteen months ago would havo saved it. Repeated efforts were made at the last session of tho Thirty-sixth Congress to this end. At every stage, the great mass of tho South, with tho wholo Democratic party, and the whole Constitutional Union party, of the North aud West, united in favor of certain amendments to tho Constitution and chief among them, tho well-known "Crittenden Propositions," which would hava averted civil war and maintained the Union At every stago, all proposed amendments in consistant with the t'cptioual doctrines of the Chicago Platform were strenuously and unauimously resisted and defeated by the Republican party. Tho "Oritti-ndcii i"rop- osi'ious" never received a single Jlcpubli can vote in either House. For tho proof wo appeal to the Journals of Congress and to the Congressional Globe We seom to reply to the charge that the Democratic party is opposed to graut nig aiu auu support to the i'euerai uov eminent in maintaining its safety, integrity, and constitutional supremacy, and in favor of disbanding our armies aud succumbing to the South. Tho chargo is libellous aud false. No man has advocated any such proposition. Democrats recognise it as their duty' as pairicis to support the Gov ernment iu all constitutional, necessary, and proper efforts to maintain its safety, intcTritv nd constitutional authority ; rinr. nr. rim sciinit iimii : UUU ill, IHU DU1IIU 11II1U U1U) II1U IllUUlUi V ! - j: it :..n..:t.i ..

Every act necessary for tho safety and efficiency of tho Gov ernment, and for a somplctc and most vig orous trial of its strength, is yot wholly consistent with the observance of every provision of that instrument, and of the laws in pursuance of it, if tho sole motives of those' in power were tho sup prcssi'on of tho "rebellion," and no moro. And yet tho history of tho Administration for tho twelve months past has been and contin ues to bo a history of repeated usurpations of power and of violations of the Consti tution, and of the publio and private rights of the citizen. For tho proof wo appeal to facts too recent to need recital hero, and too flagrant and hincous for the calm nar rative which wo propose. Similar act wero .done and a like policy pursued in the threatened war with France in the time of John Adams, and with tho same ultimate purpose. But in two or three years the people forced them into an hon orable peace with France, rebuked the excesses and abuses of powcrx vindicated the Constitution, and turned over tho Fed eral Government to -the principles aud policy of the Dcuiocratio party. To the "sober second thought of tho people,'' therefore, and to tho ballot-box,' we now appeal when again in like peril with our fathers. But if every Democrat concurred in the policy of prosecuting tho war to tho utter subjugation of tho South and for tin sub version of her Stato Governments with her institutions', without a Convention of the States, and without an ovortruo for peace, we should just as resolutely resist tho dis banding of the Democratic party. It li the only party capable of carrying on a war; it is the only party which has ever conducted a war to a successful issue, and the. only party which has done it without abuse of power, without molestation to tho rvLts of any class cf 'c.itiicuaj 'and with duo regard to economy. All this it has done ; all this, if need bo, it is able to do again. If success, then in a military point of view be required, the Democratic party alone can ccmmandit. To conclude : Inviting all men, without distinction of Stato, section, or party, who aro for the Constitution as it is and the Union as it was, to unito with us in this great work upon terms of perfectly equal ity, wo insist that The restoration of tho Union, whether through pcaco or by war, demands th'o coutinucd organization and success of tho Democratic party ; Tho preservation cf tho constitution de- ""'The maintenance 'of liberty and free democratical government demands it ; Tlm r.isfnr.itinn nf n fift.inrl circtrmi sf in . 1 AMW w. . tU WJMVb.UVl m- fnrnnl noliev demands it : - i . .

Hnvo you ever lmard a sympathizer with "Secession talk politics who 'did not beast of lii's" Do mocraoy?" ' ' ' " ' 'This tells too muoh, becauso if this io tho faot, the question becomes significant: What is this war about? If there is no war nor even contention between the Southern and Northern Democrats, then who brought on the war and wiia.t is It for? If -tiis' ia purely a Kcpublican or Abolition war, brought on to free tho ncgrpes, the noouer it is known tho better. If the above a'vow al.ofCoI. Forney (a Colonel in timo of peace) is true iu tho senso ho and his co adjutors assort it, then tho blood and trcasuro now flowing ao freely lio at the door of tho Republican party, and thoy and thoy alono aro rcsponsiblo for it. Aro ihey willing to bo held in that light beforo tho world? Aro they ' willing that tho monstrous crimo of destroying tho "besi Government on earth" shall wholly rcsi upon their own shoulders? If tho Demo crats of tho South and the Democrats of the North have a coiaincn sympathy, then tne war surely is not between them, for men whp sympathize with eaeo other, sets tie their difficulties without blood and public debts'. ' If this is truo, as Eaid by Col. Forney, one of the Republican official pets, then all that is wanting to restore tho Govern ment to its former harmony, greatness and success, is the putting out of office th6 Republicans, and putting in their places good, sound, old-fashionod constitutional Democrats. ' ' By this admission of Col. Forney and his Republican friends, the war would havo no cause of continuance if tho Democrats were in power, because hero would bo a sympathy of feeling which would harmon ize and sottlo dur'aational troubles. This is important, coming from that quarter, and is worthy of the most serious consid eration. We always havo believed and. asserted that h ad tho Republicans been defeated in 18C0, no odds how or whom wc could not havo had any war, but thaju all our sectional differences would havo been healed and our nation stood forth, stronger and moro prosperous than over. It is now becoming perfectly apparent that unless there can bo made a rapid change of public sentiment, and a general triumph of the old Democracy, with to old laud marks of tho Constitution for their guide, our country is lost irretriov ably lost and our national misfortunes only begiuuiug to show themselves.
