the editorial colums OF the Union, Tor il
would be indicate towards the gentlemen
assailed. No one can forget them. Can
it be supposed those assailed have been
conclialed by such course of the Admins.
tralioni No, sir. lfihey were men whose
support is worth having; il they have the
independence and pride Of honorable men,
they would scorn sustaining or acting with
those who thus Iraduce them. tell YOU.
sir, the course and conduct OF the Union
has dono as much to cause the present
distraction in the alienation Of the ceilings
Of large portion OF the Democratic party
from the Administration as any thing else.
The Administration is regarded as respon.
sibo, and believe they are Justly espon.
sible for the course and conduct Of that
press.
