The eaying is ss true at the prenent day s when first uttered, and finds its illostrstion in the agiutioui whioh now disturb the country, proceeding ss they do from sectional iasuee that bare r pent their wrcs, and which are only pro longed in order to subserve the political a 'gran ditement of tbo parties to whom they originally proved souro of life and strength. ' It is also true that good et'iaeno, io a time of och purpoaeles turmoil and ooofusion, beeom iogdiaguated with tbaarta of political snaeagera, are tempted more tod more to withdraw from the stage of polities! activity, just in proportion to the growing; necessity which demands their prompt and cnergctie intervention to put an end to the " strife of tongues." Ibis, too, is a po litical truth whioh did not escape the observation of Edmund Burke, and be has alluded to it in order to make the delinquency of such " good citizens" a theme of patriotic 'animadversion. The remarks which he bis left under this head, u recently quoted by our intelligent contempora ry, the Baltimore American, have such an ob vious bearing upon our " present .discontents" thst we cite them for the instruction .and gratifi cation of our readers : " It is not enough that a men means well to his coop try; it is not enough that in his single person he never' did an evil-act,- bat always voted according to bis conscience, and even ha rangued against every design which be appre hended to be prejudicial lo the interests of his country. This innoiioul snd luefieotual charac ter, that seems formed upon a' plan of apology and disculpatioo, falls miserably short of the mark of public duty. That duty demands and requires that what is right should not. only be made knottn, luL made prevalent that what is evil should not only b detected, but defeated. WhftD a man omits to put himself in a situation of doing his duty with effect, it is an omission that frustrates (be purposes of hia. trust almost as much as if he bad formally betrayed it. It is surely no very rational account of a man's life thst he has always voted right, but has taken special care to act in such a manner that hia en deavors could not possibly be productive of any consequence. "T . " I do not wonder that the behavior of many parties should have made person of tender and scrupulous virtue somewhat out oi humor with all sorts of connexion in politics. I admit that people in such confederacies frequently acquire a narrow, bigoted, and proscrip ive aptrit ; that they are apt to sink the idea of the general good in the circumscribed and partial interest of party success. Bat Where duty renders critical situa tion a necessary one, it is our business to keep free from the evils attendant upon it, and not fly from the situation itself. If a fortress is seated in an unwholesome air, an officer of the garrison is obliged to be attentive to his health, but he most not desert his station. " For my part I find it impossible to conceive that any oue believes to bis own politics or think them to be of any weight who refuses to adopt the means of having them reduced into practice. It is the business of the speculative philoso pher to mark the proper ends of government. It f .t i ' . L - i;.r i - is ice Dusmesss ot mo politician woo . is ine philosopher in sotion, to find out proper means towards these ends, and to employ them with ef fect. ' Therefore every honorable connexion will avow it is their first purpose to pursue every just metuoa to put me men wuo noia tneir opinions into such condition ss may enable them to carry their common plans into execution, with all the power and authority of ilia Stata. As this power i attached to certain situations, it is their duty to contend for these situations. A generous contention for power, on manly and honorable- maxims, will essily be distinguished from the mean and interested struggle for place and emolument. The very tlyle of tucli persons will serve to discriminate them from those num berless impostors who have deluded the ignorant with ptofessions incompatible with human prac tice. .-I. . . ' I remciuberan old scholastio aphorism which enjs 'that the man who lives wholly detaohed from others must be either an angel or a. devil. When I see in any of these detached gentlemen of our times the angelic purity, power, and bene ficence, I slia'.l admit them to be angels. In the mean time,, we are born only to" be men. We shall do enough if we prove ourselves to be good ones. It is therefore our business carefully to cultivate in our minds, to rear to the most per fect vigor and maturity, every sort of generous and honest feeling that belongs to Qur nature ; to bring the dispositions that are lovely in private life into the service and conduct of the Common wealth j so to be patriots as not to forget that we ire gentlemen ; to cultivate friendships and to in cur enmities: to hare both strong, but both se lected in the one to be placable, in the other. immovable; to model our principles to our duties and our situation ; to be fully persuaded that all virtue which in impracticable is spurious; and rather to run the risk of fulling into faults in a course which leads us to act with effect and en ergy, than to loiter out our days without blame and without use. .

We make no apology (says the Baltimore American) for this long quotation, and we leave it without comment.' We ask for it only a care ful reading by that numerous body of Union men who, under whatever plea; hove hitherto refused to lake an aetive eitixen's part in the great and important struggle going on around them. : 1 Significant TeiL After the Grand Lodge of th Unite.)

UirrtoHdeHce i JV. Y: Day Jiuok.. , Is not this a startling and strange declaration, coming as it does from the head and front of the Breckinridge party, the New York Day Book?

' 7 Atlanta Confederacy. A Great Ural in Appcarancci. An enthusiastic admirer and thorough going friend of Douglas, rode all the way from High land county to Staunton to enjoy the great pleas ure of seeing the " Little (Jiant and hearing htm speak. When the Magnus Apollo of his admiration was introduced to the crowd he was so astonished thn,t he held his breath. "My God," he soliloquized, " ia it possible .that citu be tho great Douglas, the 'Little Giant,' of Illi nois." He says he looked at Douglas and then at Hon. A. II. II Stuart. He looked upon this picture and then upon that. - He saw the diminu tive and unprepossessing figure of Douglas with his coat tail entirely too near the ground, and the commanding figure and handsomo person of Mr. Stuart. He says that he thought : 'Z--'' 'Goodness uracious, gracious goodness) shall we make that man ( Douglas) President snd keep this man ( Stuart) at home?"" He could not over come his utter astonishment, and went home, de termined to vote for Bell and Everett. His father and his two brothers will do the-same thing. Staunton Specialo?. Thk President" and. New York PoLmcg. Mr. Si F. Butterworth, of the New York Assay office, writes to the New York News th t he is authorised to state that the President desires the success of the Union electoral ticket in that State. This is commendable in the Executive, and will doubtless have its effect upon his friends in office in New York and ther States, where similar combinations have been or may Jo made. "''Gown NEW8-j'R0iINEW Jersey. A prom inent Union wan of Jfew Jersey writes that the Union electoral ticket will. Carry that State by 10,000 majority. Also, tht, in the Newark die trict, Pennington will probably be beaten by Col. Perry, of Newark', a Union Democrat, who will be supported by all tho anti-Republican of the district. ' H Repudiates Them The Hqin.

Hilliard, of Alabama, spoke last week at Macon and Co lumbus, on bis return from.. the North, lit made just the kind ot speech which a patriot should mske, and just the kind that th times demand. Ho wot originally a Breckinridge man, fully endorses bis platform and would now support him, if 'lhcro were any chance of his election; but in an emergency like this, when protection is .not necessary, by the confession of the Breckinridge men, but when the Govern ment is at stake, and the Republicans are march ing in solid column to secure the Administration, he feels called upon to sink tho paxtisan,rand to go for his wholo country. He has travelled ex tensively North, and has come to the conclusion that there is no hope of electing either Breckin ridge or Douglas, but that Lincoln may be de feated by an earnest and manly' rally to the stan dard of Bell and Everett. Tbclr election would be a triumph over the Republicans, and not a triumph Over either wing of the Democracy, and their administration, suataiucd by -the moderateJ conservative, Union men, would, in all probabil ity, destroy forever tho Republican party, as an organization contending fur tho Presidency, be cause, by sternly maintaining existing laws, and by a wise and just courso in reference to slavery agitation, it would disarm the Republicans of their rallying crie.i, and leave them no ground to staud upon, except the ultra and extreme doo trlnes of Abolitionists of the Garri.on school. et us all, then, leave immaterial matters in abeyance for thii timo, and, by concerted and united action, elect -those who stand the . best chance against Lincoln. The Course adopted by Mr. Ilil'iarJ is.tlictrue course for all patriotic Breckinridge men to pur sue. Thero being no chance for Breckinridge, they should, in a spirit of manliness and patriot ism,forget partyism and voto for Bull. ' . What Thry - Think 'of Earli Other. We noticed a few days ago the statement by the Wilmington Journal that a man named Boiling had sold out and delivered the Demo cratic party in Kentucky fur a deputy clerkship pf a Court. That was cheap. Ono of the Journal's Georgia brethren lias been giving his opinion of the 'price that would have bought the party, not in a single State but in the whole Union, as represented by their best men in Na tional Convention assembled. Said Judge Jack son, speaking a few days ago at Lagrange, Ga : " A gentleman came up to mo in Baltimore, dur ing the session of the Convention, and taid to me : " Sir, if I had one hundred thousand dollars, I could secure the nomination of John V. Breckinridge," and he (Judge Jackson) re plied to bim, "I believe you could." Of course it is none of our business to discuss the accuracy of these opinions of tho corrupti bility of the Democracy. .Those who express them are members of the party and ougqt to know. The question naturally occurs : Is such a party fit to be trusted with the government of this country? with the people' money !L 7 Eiiyctleclllc Observer.' 6one Clean Over!

Another js one of the largest slaveholders; in the country. The Post says that these are only tho most prominent among a number of like cases. Look to the Bolters.

It was the darkest hour of the Revolution. Pursued by the blood bounds of the Reign 'of Terror, stripped of -every wreck of property, Talleyrand secured . passage to America ia a ship about to sail. Ho was a beggar and a wanderer to a strange land, . to earn hi daily bread by daily toil. ' "Is there any American stopping at your house?" he asked of the landlord of the hotel. "I am bound to cross the water, and would like letter- to a pcrspn of influence in I lie lSevr World. The landlord hesitated a moment and then- re plied t , " , - ... "There is a gentleman op f tin either from America or Britain, bnt whether from America or England I cannot tell." . ... He pointed the way, and Talleyrand who,, ia his life, was bishop, princo and minister ascended the stairs, a miserable suppliant, stood before the stranger's door, knocked and entered. In the far corner of the dimly lighted room, sat a man of some fifty year.., hia aruig folded, . and his head bowed upon his breast. .From a winduw directly opposite, a flood of light poured upon his forehead. His eyes looked from be neath the downcast brows, snd upon Talleyrand's Leo. witia p eeuliarand--seeching -expression His face was striking in outline, tho mouth and chin indicalivo of an iron will. His form, vig orous even with the snows of fifty, was clad iu a dark, but rich and distinguished costume. Talleyrand advanced tated that he was a fugitive the impression that the gentleman be fore him was an American, and solicited his kind feelings and offices. . He poured forth hishislory h tloquWTrcffc1i and broken English. ,. " I am a-wanderer nnd exile. I am forced lo fly to the New World without, friend or homr. You ore an American. "Give me then, I beseech you, a letter of yours, so that 1 may Lo able to earn my bread, 1 am willini lo toil in a manner any life of labor would be a paradise to a career of luxury in Franco. You will cive mu . a letter to one of your friends. A genllemau like you doubtless has many friends.'4 -r- - The strange gentleman or'csc. Willi s loblt that Talleyrand never forgnt, he retreated toward the door of the tiext chamber, his eye still look ing from beneath his darkened brow. "I am tho otily uian in the New World, who can raiso his baud to God and sayt I have not a friend not one in all America." , Talleyrand never ft.rgo the overwhelming sadntss of look which accompanied these words. - " Who aro y5u ?" ho cried, jis the strange man.. retreated to the next room; "your name?" . ' My name," he replied, with a smile that had -; more of mockery than joy in the convulsive es- , pressioti. " My name is Benedict Arnold.'.' lie was gone. Talleyrand sank iuto the chair, gasping the wordit ' . " Arnold tho tra'tor !" Thus he wandered over the earth, another Caio, with the wanderer's' mark upon his brow. ' ----- Rendering Conrj . -ftr Evil. A Manchester warehouseman published an ex ceedingly scurrilous pamphlet against the firm of Grant Brothers, holding up the elder .partner to ridiclo as " Billy Button." ' William was in formed by some otio of the nature of the pamph let, and his observation was-that tho man would ' live to repent it. " Oh !" said tht libeller, when informed of the remark,' " he thinks that some time or other I shall be in his deb; but, 1 will take good care of that." It happens, however, that men in business do not altvuys forsee who shall be their creditor; and so it turned out that the ttrante! libeller becittirc a bai.krttpt und could not obtain his certificate and begin business again ---without obtaining their sinatuie. ' It seemed to him a hopeless case to call upm that firm for any faror, but the pressing claims of his family forced ' hitn to make the application. Ho appeared be- .fore the man he had ridiculed as " Billy Button," . accordingly. He told his tale, and produced his certificate. " Yon wrote a pamphlet against us once !" said Mr. Grant." The .suppliant exrected to see-hit document : thrown iuto the fire: Instead of which Mr. Graht signed the name of the firm, and thu3 completed the neccsfary certificate. " We make it a rule," said he, handing it lack, " never to refuso sign ing the certificate of an honest man, and vrc have- never yet heard I hut yu were any thing else. Tho elir3 st3rtd illU) the U1;1.s cyw Ah j continued Mr. Grant,-" you see that' my saying1 was true, that you would live to repeut writing that pamphlet. I did not mean it as a threat ; I only meant that some djy you would know us botter, ajid repent having tried to injure us," I do, I do, indeed,' repent it." " Well, well, you know us now. But how do you get on,; what arc you going to do?" Tho poor man stated .that he had friends who would assist hitn when his certificate was obtained. ' But how are you off in the mcantimo 1" . ,----4 Tho answer was, that having given up every farthing to., hie creditors,-ho had been compelled to stint his faimily in even the common neces saries of lifoj.that he might be enabled to.pay for . his certificate. " My good felluw. this will never do ; your wife and family must riot suffef itt this) "! way ; be kind enough to take this ten-pound note to your wife from me; th jrcj there now don't cry ; it will be all well with you yet ; keep up your spirits, set to work like a inau, and you will raise your head among the best of us yet." , The overpowered man endeavure'd-, with choking ut terance, to express Tis graiitude, but in vain, and putting his hand, to his face, he went out of. the . . room sobbing like a chiTd.
