We hear a great deal said about the ob• literation of party lines. As far as the sup port of the Government against rebellion is cuweerned there is but one party in the North. Go to the rank of the army, and 1 in the large numbers of Democrats who ' t have !volunteered to fight the battles of their ksountry in a war not of their own ellooang, which they exhausted every law , ful meatus, to avert, witness their devotion to the Government and the nation. -In the issue between Government and rebellion, Union and ?disunion. party distinctions are obliterated. - The Democratic party has al ways recognized its obligations to support i the Constitution, obey the laws and respect ' the Constituted antborities. So conspieti ous has been its devotion to the 'Vinton, and sio ready its disposition to yield awl con cede ,unimportant mints for the sake of averting the - very calamities which hare ov ertaken the country, that the sneering epi thet or -thiion-savers'! was applied to it by its enemies—as if it was discreditable to be ' solicitous about the preservation of the Uni on. Respeet for law is a conipieunus trait in the Democratic party. Its members bad no partin the passage of acts to nullify the fugitive slave - law—they never engaged in motel to rested, fugitives by violence—they never raised their voices to disieretlit the de ciAinris. of the courts, or endeavor to bring the thipienze Court of the Unlite4 States in- , to public: contempt. In short, the Demo- , cratie party has suffered ridicule because of its eenserYirtive, law-respecting,' covenant abiding tendencies. It was both natural and Proper that a narty with such chart- teristics iletuld - sprlng to the support of tide.' 1 - tovernmeritt, in its efforts to ernslarebellimi, with 'unexampled unanimity. even though that ;Government was adminiStered by 'the hit teresVpriendes, and obtained power upon principles abl-trent to Dotunefuti, Buit while the Democratic pOrtyy(upports the Oovernment, it does not fhllow that it apprhves of, all the measures of this Admin istration, or that it has changed its political prineiples. ; On the contrary. Democrats are morn than ?ever convinced of the evil ten- I denies of Republicanism. since Imprehen , skin has been succeeded by palqui demon- ' strut on. We - no longer suppose the ten- i , dencies of Ithe Republican party are des ' truefive, biftwe know it. Wbilerebels are in aims against the -Government, we can , fight; for that Goverment, bectiwie it is the'. Government, because it is our duty to do an, I g I and iweatus_e it is the only hope frir the pres- i erratflon or the Union. But it is not our duty to approve of even: - mitre - geniis usur pation of p9Wer, and evenly profligate expen dituie of Money. and every seandalous ap pointment tooffice, because these acts are committed in the name of the Union. We would be frateling rapidly en the high road , to•dOliotism if we fail to protest against ' Merit. Public liberty - may be assailed by a faithlest or tt usurping Administratirin as well as by open enemies. - The latter are the Bess dangerous, because we are preper- ed sibmeet. them: the tinnier most. to be ' dreaded, beetnise least guarded against.— We Clarinet endorse the, act of the President 'in attenming power to suspend the writ of habeas corpus, and thereby place the liberty i of every 'citizen al his mercy. When it is ' clear that the Constitution gives him no 1 -arch` authority. Neither can we 'approve of the seizure of private telegraphic correo 'i pondenee, in utter disregard of that clause ! of the Constitution which ; provides "that the right of the people to be seciire in their ; persons, houses. papers and effects against unreasonable searches and seizures shall nut be ridlatett" : As well might the' President , cause the mails to be °tuned and examin ed for the detection of treasonable corres- ; pondence. and establish a 'general system of espoinage from which no Man would be I secure. Nor can we approve'of making tap ' army an asylum for corrupt and broken down politicians, ignorant - of the art of war, and skilled onlvjn the strategy of plun- Ider. Acts such as these arc! violative - of the Constitution, abhorrent to every principle , of integrity and justice. and richly deserv- • dug of severe public condemnation. They are eittenuated on the plea of neees.sily—tile ; tyrant's plea. Let us not be deceived. The liberties of a nation were never destroyed , without SIXF.SAITY was the specious excme to justify the first beginnings of usurpation. fhe unanimity of parties in support of the War has not removed - the necessity for party organisation. as many suppose. The Democratic party has a great work to per form in healing the serious wounds which a few months of Republican domination , have inflicted upon the Constitution and the country. "No party" would be a very con- . venient escape for Republicanism from the retributions of the future : but the Demo cratic party cannot be spirited away by any such dextreous juggle. It existed and flour- , ished long before the Republican party came ; into being. and it bids fair to exist and flour- i ish when that party shall have become on ly a disagreeable recollection. Its winei- ' plea nre'not of to-day, or adapted to agar- , ticular emergency or a specific issue, but fixed and permament—applicable to every time and all circumstances. Before slavery beeame the absorbing question of the coun- try. the Democratic party was great and powerful : and after this agitating topic is I settled, it will again re-establish the true principles of government, and re-assume I influence and favor. Let not the thought i of its abandonment be entertained for a moment, either by friend or foe. Dcle’rminrrl to Le Evonomimlf—qu.
