It is thought by some that the duty of a publicvjonrnal is to assame that the plat /otjnisof ito party are infallible declare taona of political truth and to support them as such, and to assure the world that the 'Candidates of it-3 party are eminently fit fbi the places for whi'ch they are named, and that they will, without doubt, be i electee. This notion, if carried into prac tiae, does -doubtless greatly simplify the duties of the conductors of such journal; bnt the question might arise whether it did not, at the same time, reduce its infloebee, and dimmish the confidence to which its givings forth are entitled, to something resembling a negative quantity. . But if such is the duty of & public ' joerna., when platforms are constructed I and candidates in ihnfield, it d-oee not fol low that, pending the fabrication of the one, and the nomination or the other, it has not the right enjoyed by the individual •members ot its party, tofaold and express opinions m respect to the-policy to be pur sued, aud the candidates te be presented, subject to no other conditions than an ad hes'on to those general principles which he pa.-.y nas holden to be original and on da mental. At any rate, -we propose to a ff w •“gfceol'ons touchingjhe duty ° democratic party in respect to the approaching Pieetdentihl election— the obligations which it owes to the eonnlty, and the consequences which, in our view W!i. accrue to ,t in case it fails to respond to those obligations. , a CGantr y 18 6B gageij in a war—at least, when it is engaged in a war so ex pensive and destructive as that in which onr country ,a mvoived-ihe most import ant and imperative question, indeed the sole question which its politics can pre sent, , a ,ne question of War or Peace: burnt the war cease, or shall it be contin ued . Questions as to how the war shall ne prosecuted: questions as to whether this or that particular thing shall be uone °. r ouatu-mpted, cr whether this or that direr Sa-.il be promoted to, O'- de pr:vcU of a command, shall be rewarded tor his vigor or uegraded for his iaeffi ciency, are questions within the party which wields the power of the nation, and has rue authority to determine them. To the party lor the war, and prosecuting it, twTfh U ‘ t Ue n? or responsibilities; and there they should be permuted to remain, lhia v.ew of-the ease is justified, as well oy. public as by party policy and interest; ??.T no opinion npnn Propne.y or impropriety of the war, or prcfcssing to bo in favor of its prose cution, contents itself with caviling over or interfering in the details, simply aids, a; us own expense, to relieve the war pany proper d responsibilities which it should rear .done. Ttis w a r in which we are engaged is very expensive. It is exhnasiive of our wealth and physical loroe, and will bring no vmceuDle material returns. If there IS any good to be realised from it, it will ne through iho settlement of seme prin ciple of government deaLined to be valu able in our National future. In order to secure this good, it is necessary that inero shou.d be nothing equivocal in our party condition. _ They who are in favor ot war should join themselves openly to the party for the war; and they who are in -itvor ol peace Bhculd show their sin cerity by appropriate party affiliations. We have the right to assume that the lead ers ot the party for the war are, for them- Be.vcs and their party associates, willing to tube the iska—to encounter all ibe disadvantages which the future may attach to their position, in consideration of the advantages. Members of the peace party cughi. auo to be willing to await the judgment cf a more temperate hereafter; and if they are not so, they do not ap propriately belong to the peace but to the war party. Mre are at this lime, incapable to measure the consequences of the war. Lnder the influences of party feelings, our intellectual standards are disturbed. We attach high values to things of com paratively little worth, and view the seeds of vast disturbances with but a very in adequate appreciation of their potency, ilie day wiii ariive when we shall be in a full realization of all the effects of the war upon society, morals and every branch of onr collective ecocemy; when these effects will be felt, their cause con fessed, and when nothing will stand in the way of on accurate siynming up and strik ing of the balance between the loss and the profit s'drs of the account. When this time arrives, the line between those who were tn favor of war and those who were in favor cf peace will be rigidly drawn. The question will not be, was a g:ren individual in favor of prosecuting the war in this way or in that, but was ha in principle and in practice a prompter of the war or a friend of peace. If there was no principle involved, if it was simply upon a calculation ofehanoes, there is rensou enough to recommend to the Democratic party an open and unflinch ing adhesion to a peace policy in the com ing Presidential campaign. Thera is no i oom for a second-hand war party. Such a party must outrun and cut under the other war party in its professions of zeal for vigorous prosecution, with the dis advantage that its very extravagance will be taken by the war men as proof of its ! insincerity. It will not succeed, because it ought not, either in a poiitical or a party aspect, to succeed. The people, so long as-they are in favor of war, will ad here to the war party proper, and oppose a ohaoge of hands where there is no pro posed change of conduct. A struggle wiih a party m power, wiih armies of sol diers aud hosts of officials under its com mand, witn no distinctive principles to stand upon, and nothing to promise but a new distribution ofoffioes, would be hope less of success, aud would be utterly de moralized aud disgraced by a defeat, tiuch a party could have no future. Its defeat would be its disbandment, and tbe sub mersion of its leaders to a depth from which no trumpet blown during tbe present generation would be likely to re call them. But there is a principle involved—% Democratic principle. We will not as same to lay it down in an abstract form, ' because such utterances have been here tofore condemned as disloyal, bat will present it in the concrete, and in its ap plication to present ciroumstaneea, as it came from a journal now supporting tbe AdministratioU, at a lime when the con ductors of that journal sought to make it tbe rule of action of the Government: “If the Declaration of Independence justified tbs seoessrion from the British Empire of t&jjee mjllipns .„<>f jColonists in 1 1 70. we do not see why it would not justify the secession *of“'five J millions of Southerners from the Union do 1861.” M VS.- ork Tribune, December. 17, 1860. ibis places the war upon the ground of a departure from a fundamental princi ple of our own national polftros: If it is correct m this, there can -be .no higher obligation resting upon citizens of the | United States irrespective of party pref erences, than to seek by peace to'bring the Government back to its trne relations with the people. A party founded upon principle may not, at ODOe, succeed: ut defeat, will neither disband nor de moralize. Even as a minority, it will constitute a moral power in the Btate, to discourage extremes, to repress violence and so exercise a wholesome and salutary influence upon the msjority. Such a parly it 0 " Way t 0 P° wer - 'lf it abide by Its principles, its -ascent -.to! authority is inevitable. The,-war party is wilfhl 5 * a* it can or ever • • , WhatfJver >t loses will be a gain 0!| the side of peace, and the tendency is in. that direction. There is no political issue in. America but the issue between, Ppace and War Until this is decided there never Will be any other. As war cannot be a permanent condition, tfo 5 war party can continue permanently in power under a popular form of Government, and the party of the Administration is fully aware that it must either subvert Our'pop ular metitatione and eliminate the elective fmnehise, or,-aj_ no long, tima in the ~pr e’ 6°- 'bfo retirement. v , be _p e &° 6 element in 'the country'is, therefore, not Wly the vindicator ot the organic--prinbipre upon which , the -Gov ernment. is founded, bnt the protector of . ? le . CU7e franchise in particular. Such a mission is high enough for any sound ambition. Responsible for none of 'the troubles into which the country has been plunged, its duty is to avoid all such re sponsibility -Iu but one way can it re spond to the obligations-which it owes to the country by selecting for its can didates men who are known to be in fa vor of peace, and who are in favor of it so openly, so decidedly, and upon such grounds of principle, that neither hopes ot success nor fears of disrepute shall cause them to swerve from or to eqaiv ocate in their support 4B 00 .... 4 26 .... 2 15 70 Catholicity and 'Slaverv Par The Jo tier, published in the Freeman s Journal cti October 10, 1862. written by Hi.

VEAB bin: In reply to your inquiries m relation to Mr. Sumner’s speech. I bee eave to state thut you will find his vili libel on the Catholics of this country in a report of a speech delivered by him in the Senate of the United States July 6, S d M Pa Q ie m ll ; a tariff rational Globe. ' Mr. Sumner, although horn in ctl' pg au Amefi.- can and literal in his feeiiega, is an Ene tab tory of the strictest sect. He has edl the fanaticism of the time of Cromwell. He is the fit leader of the partv who seek to produce riot and bloodshed among their le.ioff-eitizene. Mr. Sumner is the proper organ of the religious zealots of the preeect hour, who believe the country now engaged in a war which is to destroy s.avery and popery together.” Y o ii caDuot have forgotten thedeclaration in the JJany IHmes newspaper of this ciiy at the breaking out of the present war, that Catholicity and slavery must perish to getuer in this rebellion. Yoa cannot I have overlooked General Phelps’ procla mation against slavery and Catholicity to the people of Louisiana, and which proc lamation remains uarebuked by the pres ent Administration at Washington. But the crowning outrage against tug religion of millions in the United States is to be found in the following extract (which is that yon wish) from Banner's speech in the Senate of the United States. Senator Sumner was speaking on “the barbarism of slavery, when he addressed the Sen ate as follows: “Can barbarism further gc? Here is an irresponsible power, rendered still more irresponsible by the seclusion of the plantation, and absolutely fortified by the supplementary law excluding the testi mony of slaves. That under its shelter enormities should occur straDger than fiction, too terrible for imagination, and surpassing any individual experience, is simply accord!ug to the course of nature and the course of history. The visitation of abbeys in England discloses vice Bed disorder in startlirg forms, clothed by the irresponsible privacy of monastic life.
