The Northern Democractf.—A correspondent - of the London Herald winds up a letter on the Black Republioan party squabbles with the fol> lowing:— “There might be the hope of some poaiible good to oome out of these quarrels among the wrangling factions of the dominant party if there were virtue enough among tho^e who affoct to oppose them on principle to seize the opportuni ty and use it courageously in an effort to restore the national sanity—in distsouragin^ by every possible means the evil passions which made and which support this war, and invoking peace, even ut the cost of giving up the struggle for territo rial dominion oVer an unwilling people, aod ta king the broad ground that the first duty of the people is to stop this horrible bloodshed, and turn their sobered thoughts to repairing their own shatteied institutions, repairing and consolidating unew thtir own lost libertirs, and laboring in pa> tiencc to recover some portion of that social and material prosperity which they have recklessly cast away in the obstinate perpetration of a self- BTcneing wrong. “but there is no such courage or virtue in the iJemooratio party. There are a few men of rare qualities within it who give eane counsels, but they are overpowered and outvoted in the organi zations which direct the combined action of tbe I party, and which are under the sway of leaden who have not convicti.>n strong enough to enable them to face a popular clamor, and are mostly mere traders in obsolete maxims and traditions for the sake of gfdning power, ''■'hese men are making haste, and taking the party along with ^cm., to i;et rid, for the purposes ol the coming Presidential election, of the apprehended odium that they, too, are not xealons lor the unconditiotaal j prosecutton or me " -» -r — . ». _ . . ,, I Ex-Prasidenfc Fillmore, tbe very type of conser- I vatism, who has recoDtly acted with the Demo- [ erats on general questions, expressed the whole j W ISH to pureh-ise for my own use. a stoJt* healthy I idea in a brief paHca-e of » spet^ch recently made By a Lady of experience in teaching, a sitnatiou in a private sthool or family, f ddresa H., bos 13S>, Favettkfvllle, N.
