of Union," in the formation of a great National
Party, with ti view to overthroli the unscru
pulous - organization that hold possession of
the Government, and re-establish the policy
of the nation on correct principleS ?
The brilliant victories achieved in fecem
over the LecOMpton party, hav,
shown the power of united action. Aglanc,
.at..thepresent.condition of publit-fiffairs har
long shown its necessity. Why: then, einistimi
tinte • in settling the - basis of tt union?

issues, yvhich have kept the people so long in

. .
_number_of lending politicinnsinßuffalo,
have,. issumra fpaper min
, recomending a ass
- 2 - -meeting - for - nn - cxpression - of 'feeling against
'the policy of theAdmiiiinifition. The circu
lar says: •
" The absolute and unconditional surrender
of the National Government into the hands of
the aggressive and intolerant slave power of
the
. country, by the national administration,
- as exemplified in itilattempt to impOtte a re
pulsive Constitution upon the people of Kan
sas; in defiance of their expressed wiShes,
makes it - the imperative duty Of all good citi
zens, who desire, to
_preserve the instinniens
inherited from their fathers, to ignore all con-
siderntions of n selfish character, And. to unite
at the polls for the pin•pose of deposing nn
Adininistkation. itt. once so faithless and de
spotic."
The Buffalo Advertiser, in, discussing this
subject, 'suggests the idea of a union upon "a
platform of 'opposition," merely. It says:
" The times are propitious for the ,mov
ment. The action of-the - Republicans in COI
gress, on the Crittenden amendment, has freed
that party front the harsh imputations of sec
tionalism, and it can appeal no longer to the
passions of, a section. ' On that ground they
were frankly and consistently met by the South
Americans -and Douglas Democrats. - Out of
this united action has grown a spirit of har
mony, No•th and South, and _it only r6tutins
for the people to sustain their Congressional
'representatives in the position they have ta- ,
ken, and reward them fur the sacrifices they
have made.
" dll that.is needed is a union in good faith
on the-platform of oppositiow,"— • ---
' The New York Adm.liar, in commenting
upon the above, gives its own views, as fel,-
-lows :
"We most heartily subscribe to these wise
and patriotic suggestions. We arc far more
concerned about the thing than the name, 1111(1
are perfectly willing to exercise a large charity
on minor points of difference.
* . * * * *
" The time is eminently propitious for We
commencement of such reconstruction of par
ties. It is not a thing to be accomplished in
a clay. It is not desirable that a new party
should be hastily constructed. But it is time
for the matter,to be discussed by the peoplu,
and by the presses 'which represent the
.ele
-Inents of such an opposition party."
The Philadelphia Daily ,Veit;s in quoting
the extracts above notified, makes the follow-
ing remarks:
‘. If the party now dominant be permitted
to retain possession of the Government for a
few . years longer, there will be nothing left
worth preserving. Already the rights of the
people are contemptuously tliiregartled; - .and
the power of the Nation is rapidly eoncentra
- ting in the hands of .an unscrupulous Presi
dent. Here is a danger. of such imminence,
that every one who: loves the itstitutione - 0
our country, should 'unite,, in efforts to avert
It. The only question is, how can arrange,
the basis of our operations, so 1113 to present an
undivided front to the enemyl -If wise coun
cils prevail, we have no doubt of the practica
bility of this proposition, and with a view to
.aid in the solution of problems involved in
the various , suggestions-mow being made, we
