T!ie irnnprrtl nolitical situation neither satisfactory nor ei courag i ing. If we look at Washington we ! see a President devoted to party and committed to the most radical measures of that party. If we look to Oougress we see a heroic baud of patriots and statesmen, under the leadership of Vance in tlie Senate and Crisp In the llouser wtruggling to preserve the Constitution of the conutry and the liberties of the people; bnt they are ia a minority j and liable at any moment to be overwhelmed by the tyrannical and oppressive majority. The taiiAr bill was delayed in the Senate and the House by the obstructive tact ics of the Democratio leaders, but its final passage cannot be prevented. The force bill has been forced back, but will come forward with renewed energy unless the fall elections re suit in an overwhelming D mocratic victory. Until quite rtceutl.v we were con fident of Democratic success throughout the Union. We are confident now that the Democratic party wonld triumph in a single band contest with the Republican party, but the solution of the po litical problem is complicated by new factors whose powers no man has calculated or is capable of calculating. Who can tell, for instance, what influence the Knigbts of Labor sre to exeit upon political affairs!

To oar minds the present appears the supreme crisis in the history ot the nation and the people of tbese States. Nullification was a dan gerous expedient, but it was a political absurdity. It was a bubble that burst as soon as it was pricked. Secession itself with a sea of blood and desert of desolation was a desperate effort to preserve the ; Constitution and perpetuate the blessings it was intended to secure to as and our children. The present agitation is to over throw the Constitution, sweepaway the rights of the States, and upon the rains of the Republic erect a consolidated government It is ! folly to deceive ourselves.
