Tin Crawford Joutaaisalii we "may be cer
tain that the man"it supports for President
"will not be a favoritoroV i ours. The Journal
need have been it,no pains to communi
cate that piece of information. The "man
that we support" for Chief Dfagistrate will
be a firm, devoted friend of the Union
and Constitution—one of the Henry Clay,
Daniel Webster, Stephen A. Douglas and
Wm. A. Marcy stamp ;—the ,"man" that
the Journal supports, will be one of the
new•fangled, pretended "friends of the
Union," who in 'the campaign of 1860,
thought the South was a curse to the na4
tion; and were perfectly willing 'Lir "let it
go ;" who thinks the Union is "not worth
preserving with slavery in it;" and who are
now doing more to retard our cause, and
recruit the rebel armies than all the efforts
of Jeff. Davis, Lee, Beauregard and John
son united, We should indeed begin to
have fears fpr our patriotism if ever, in
the varied convulsions of the political
volcano, we should find the Journal, sup
porting the same i'candidate for President
that we did.
We insist apon it; however,' that it is
not exactly honest for the Journal to deny
its opposition to, Mr. Lincoln, when the
fact was palpable to every .reader of the
paper. •
Nr. Dawsui's Speech.
The Republican papers in this portion
of the State having all, or nearly all,
printed the speech of Hon. G. W. Scho
field, of our district, we shall next week
oommence the publication of that or-Hon.
John L. Dawson, to *which — lft, Scofield's
purports to be a reply. It is very lengthy,
and will run 'through two issues of the
Observer, but we trust no one will be de
terred thereby from reading it froth the
beginning to the end. We regard it as
by far the ablest, clearest and most states
manlike political production that has ap
peared from any member of Congress
'since the death of Douglas, and feel proud
to\know that Pennsylvania hu'a Repre
sentativeln that body who by his un
swerving integrity, noble personal quali
ties, anctadmitted talents reflects so much
lustre on the commonwealth. The public
will have anapportunity of comparing the
two speeches sOe by side, and judgin g
for itself of the 40.7.ette's satirical assertion
that "G. W. Soofiekd is as able a man as
the Hon. Mr. Dawso, \ to say the least."
Not Yet
\
The mission of the "Republican" party
is now said to be accomplishedand a nihe
thing it is 1 It has con the courtkry nealy
a milliCh of lives, destroyed its financial
and commercial prosperity, severed \ the
union of States and broken their laws,
turned vast and fertile districts into disei•
and battle fields—subverted the liberties of
the people, and now its ' mission is accom
plishes} 1" No, not yet. After such a
~record the people will not allow you to
hide your crimes under a name which you
profane, shirk the punishment that you
deserve, or meanly sneak from the arm of
their vengeance, to perpetrate new infa
mies, and finish the destruction you have
so near accomplished. Your "mission" is
not yet "accomplished," nor will it be,till
you have met the doom of traitors and
tyrants, and rest securely buried beneath
the execrations and detestation of free
men.
Partizan
Wallace De Witt, Esq., a gentleman of
ability and acquirements, and well known
in this city, was recently elected Prothon
otary of the middle district of the Supreme
Court of this State. He was elected by the
votes of Justices , Woodward, Strong and
Thompson, withciut opposition, and on
account of his fitness for the place. Where
upon the abolitionists raised a howl of
disappointed rage because Mr. De Witt
has the honor of being a Democrat, and
because the Supreme Court saw fit tit use
its own judgment as to its officers, with
out consulting the Shodyites of Harris
burg. This only exposed their partizan
greed and meanness; but this was' not
enough, end the Hon. M. B. Lowry, a
gentleman known in this city, introduced
a resolution into the Senate that the cons-
mittee on the Judiciary he instructed to
report upon the expediency of abolishing
the &prone analfor Me middle diZtriet of
&ate, for the sole purpose of destroying
the office of which Mr: be Witt is the in
cumbent. The interests of the, citizens of
a large portion of the State were nothing,
. but the removing of a Democrat from of
fice everything 1, Certainly reckless and
bigoted partizanship could go no further.,
The Lad Call figs- Troops.
Itany inquiries have; been made at the
War Department, by members of Congress
especially; in relation to the last call of
the President for 200,000 men. The an
swers are that the men are necessary for
the purposes of the war, and that, should
not the result of this call be satisfactory
another requisition may be anticipated. The

=I
A Democratic People, hoi9ever, are rare
ly visited with the usurpation of one man
while they still retain unimpaired their
republican conatitution and their forres of
government underit. The foundation on
iviiich alone a Republic can long remain
firm, is the virtue of the people. So long
to that - virtue exists, ambitious men are
deterred by the fear cf popular reproba;
tion from seeking their own agrandize
ment at the expense of the public welfere.
When political virtue !lasi decayed, and
then only, do free constitutions cease to
avail and becoine subverted by the power
of one mind acting atone, and supported
by the bayonets of a paid soldiery. The
rise of a powerful faction in a Republic is
the first step tending from the light of
free institutions to the darkness of des
potism, and history teaches that in thous
nations that hate been governed by re
publican forms. or have attempted to
establish democratic institutions, the law
less rule of a powerful minority of the
people, has generally proceeded the tyrany
land usurpation of a single despot.
It is through this preliminary stage that
the government of the United States is
now passing, and if not checked by the
uprising of the people, our country will
reach the goal of so many repUblics. and
become in theory what it is - already in
practice, a military despotism. Though
the founders of the goverriment incorpo
rated into the organic law provisions that
they thought sufficient to guard the people
against usurpation of any kind, yet the
progress of an agressive revolution on the
one hand, met by a defensive on the other,
has placed the United States under the
dominion of a minority of the people. It
has been seen that the so-called Republi
can party was originally but little more
than one-third of the people, and that
though wielding for three years a power
and patronage greater than that of any
other gevernment on the globe, it has
still been unable to maintain even this
factious standard, and has been forced to
resort to the most .open and licentious
corruption, and the most criminal and
unbearable interference with the freedom
of the ballot. We now inquire whether,
at the time that this faction came into
power, and aasumedto govern the United
States, its principles were consistent with .
tile fundamental law of the land, as ad
ministered Irons the beginning of the
government, or in harmony with the spirit
of democratic institutions, or whether, on
the contrary, its very organization and
existence was not in itself the beginning
a revolution, and destructive of that
eqnslity among the States of the confnie•
action, and among • the people of those
States 'which alone could assure the eta
'bility of 'our form of government.
Our, governmental system is founded
upon the consent of the people governed.
It is based entirely and alone upon the
democratic principle, and in coksidering
what that prineiple'is, it is unnecessary
to discuss the theory of States Rights, and
the delegation of certain ,powers by the
several States to a mere creature of their
own establishment, for the henefit and
protection of ail. True, this view of the
question will show that the organization
of the so-called Depublican party upon,its
declared - platform, was nothing les's than
an attempted revolution and an act of
incipient treason. But Democratic prin
ciple rests for its strength on a stronger
basis thin even the incontrovertible doc
trine of State Rights. Assumeif you choose
that all State lines are obliterated, that
the States are but dependent provinces of
the central authority, by which are en
acted the laws that secure the lives and
property of the people, and .that the
United States are do longer a confederacy
of republics, but 'a consolidated empire,
and the principle of democratic govern
ment compared with the dogmas of the
ao-called Republican party, will show it to
have been hostile to the very idea of free
popular government.
Democracy is the government of a ma
jority of the people, limited first by the
fundamental Law that they themselves
have established, and second by that
natural law_of justice that alone can be
interposed when other means fail to ward
off the attacks of a tyranical majority upon
the inalienable rights of minorities. Dem
ocracy recognizes at all times and under
all circumstances the right iota people to
reject or assent to laws that immediately
affect their interests, or simply, the right
to govern themselves. Democracy is
equality in political rights of\all those
4ra g ei g ed in the making of the liws, and
all, *ho assent to them, the minority
obeying so long as those laws do not eea
vene natural justice and inalienable priv=•
lieges.
. Democracy not only declares the right
of a majority to govern, but it also re
strains its powers and recognizes and pro
tects the- legal and natural rights of mi
norities. If these principles are correct,
and few will :dispute their truth apart
from the application that may be given
them at the present time, in what position
do we find the Yo-called Republican party,
at thi time that it was enabled to elect its
president by the votes of one-third of the
People ? Did they recognise these princi
ples, or were they not openly and avowed
ly opposed to them ? Did they adhere to
t h # 'democratic principle - that a majority
can overn only according to the laws,
and ust respect in all its acts the legal
and na 1 rights of the minority, or
even whit ey themselves were in an im
mense minor , did they not assume that
O majority were powerful, and if under
constitutional f any number of chi
seas could possess th *dual government,
they could rightfully minister it in a
spirit hostile to the in -•- of onatiiird
of the republic, and in diree violation of
the expressed wishes of two-th ...of the.
people? Nay, mote than this, • ey pro.

among the people, vicilstes the principle
of popular self giverninent." - of democracy
and republicanism, and by whatever name
it calls itself cannot escape thenharge of
being oligarchical or monarchial.
. Again in.considering the character of
this so-called Republican faction, there is
yet another view to be taken. Heretofore'
we haveigone upon the (supposition-that
a faction arises having Its adherents in
every rein of the country, and assuming
to rule in violation of the rights or those
who refused to give their assent to their
peculisr dogmas. In the case of tie fac
tion now destroying ,the' liberties of the
country. there is another attendant cir
cumstance that plaCes„itt in a position of
more direct hostility to democratic gov
ernment. The so-called Republican party
was eminently a sectional party. It was
amajority, and only a bare majority of the
peopile of the North!arrityed against'citi
sans of the South. No sectional party can
obtain possession of the g overnment, the
sole object and use of w hich is the protect
Lion of the citizen, ivitti the intention of
administering it in a spirit of hostility to
or disregard of the legal l and natural rights
of other sections or states, and for the sole
benefit of its own peculitir locality, without
violating the democratio or republican
principle. It matters not that they may
propose to themselves rio direct and .open
violation of 4law ; political juglerly and
chicanery are no lest criminal, and wheth
er you lose your purse by the knavery of
a swindler, or the bludgeon of a highway
robber, your loss bi the same,' and the
violation of law and juistice none the less
flagrant. Nor does, it avail to say that in
the present instance !the institution of
slavery was the object of attack. As a free
people, having the inalienable natural
and constitutional , right to make their
own laws, and determine for themselves
what institutions were' ' most conducive to
their benefit, any attempt to take from
them that. right wits 'an agressive move
ment, in violation as well of the doctrine
of republicanism as of the laws _of the
land. It matters n ot; what principle of
assumed excellence faction adopts for its
rule, nor whit uncertain and visionary
benefits it proposes to confer upon an
unwilling people ; if in its career it comes
in contact 'with this unalterable principle
of Democracy and Republicanietn that
"all governments derive their just powers
from the consent of the governed," a real
or constitutional majority must yield, that
liberty may live ; still more' should a
small minority, professing the most ultra
and eccentric creed, bow before the stat
utes of the land, the will of the people,
and the law of God.
In proposing to restrict the legal rights
and overthrow the Auality of the citizens
of a part of the Republic against their
consent, the so-called Republican party
became an anti-democratic, revolutionary,
and oligarchial faction, and that from the
very moment it began its plottings against
one-third of the people of these United
States. It so happened that it was ena
bled by a system 'of gigantic falsehood.
,pursued with the perseverence that mal
ice and fanaticism : give to their followers,
to excite the majority, or at least the con
troling element of the faction, to a pitch
of fanatical fury against the institution of
negro slavery.-- This was a mere matter of
chance ; had there been no negroes, the
enemies of democrlttic government and
the friends of centralized power would
not have, wanted! an excuse to begin a,
stragetical or forcible movement against
popular goverdttierit and liberty. Bye"
basely pretending to_ be on the side of
freedom, they were, enabled to blind the
people to the despotic principle that was
the foundation of their action, and deceive
them into the election of their candidate
To these charges against • the so-called
Republican partpits adheren ts made vari
ous answers, and the faction might have
been divided into three classes ; the boldly c
revolutionary fanatics, the timid and con
science smitten followers, and the ignorant
and bigoted dupes, each of whieill is char
acterized by the. answers that they were
accustomed to make to the appeals of
their fellow citizens who wished to main
tain-the principles of our government, •
the laws of the land. The fanatical hied
-ers,had no scruples; They believed sla
very wrong ; the planter of Georgia had
acre-qua' right 'with Charles Sumner of
Massachusetts to helieve 4t right. The
fanatic did not hesitate to diAltre for rev
olution, war, disiolUtion of the Union, or
any other convulsion, so that he could see
the negro without a legal master. This
class of men controlled the faction and
still control it, while they who were afflie
,ted with only a mild type of lunacy, who
themselves on their " conserve
\
tism thought these men too violent, and
even tntally wrong, but still had the weak
