THE Union cause is gaining strength daily, in every section of the country The people are tired out and disgusted with the insincerity, duplicity, intrigues and tyranny of party, and are resolved for once to think and act for themselves They see States arrayed against States, and the country brought to the verge of dissolution, under the undisturbed rule of those who have claimed to be "the only national party," the only party that could vindicate successfully the cause of the South and preserve the union.of the States.

All these pledges have been made over and over again as election after election came on, and now after thirty years' almost unbroken sway, in what condition do we Ind the government and the country? The former embarrassed with demoralized, and its high powers prostituted to the mere purpose of partisan success and John Bell, The executive department a common ba- 1 i -L political merchandise, and Congress a fish market and boar-garden, TMith all the constitutional duties of the Representative merged in a personal criminatiop, blackguardism, and sectional strife. The greart interests of the nation are uucared for, or utterly forgotten Among the states and the people, we find republic arrayed against republic, and envy, hatred, and distrust enthroned in the places of international comity and fraternal regard. Is this not so? Does not the judgement, the heart" of every honest man in the land tell him that tve speak the plain and unvarnished truth? Who will dispute it? There can be no refutation of that which isjevident to all To a crowd the climax of disasters, the as among the men who would male first- rate Cabinet-officers. Nobody ever heard Henry Clay speak of John Belf, except in terms of high aspect and regard.

It says We admire a sanguine disposition, and we usofl to think Mr Ritchie a pretty bold man, when after such an election as that of Harrison or Taylor, he could walk serenely forth, complacently exclaiming, "skies bright and brightening." But next to the energetic, never-fiay-die gentleman, who was carried over Niagara the way and went down the precipice Still staking out for the shore, we have Been nothing to equal the hopefulness which can enable a Breckinridge man to see a bright prospect of the success of that ticket. Is there a non-slaveholding State in which that estimable Kentuckian will so much as see the light of heaven Has the nominee of the Yancey Convention one particle wore chance in the North the Chicago nomination in the South And in the South itself, has not --the leaders of party--have at Itst quarrelled among themselves and b-oken the den of conspirators It is under such circumstances that the people of the Union are brought to the contemplation of another presidential election, and tie solemn duty of select ing rulers who shall right up the country, turn out the money-changers from the temple, and administer their affairs with dignity, honesty and truth.

FOB VICE PRESIDENT, A EVERETT, OF OF IBS Constitutional Union Party. WwetxAs experience has demonstrated that platforms adopted by the partisan jConTentions jf tbe country hare bad tbe effect to mis- Iea3 and deceive tbe people, and at the game time to widen the jtoHtieal divisions of the conn- try, by the creation and encouragement of geographical and sectional parties; therefore Saoleed, That it is both the Bftrt of patriotism aufl'of 3aty to'recogne no political principle other than the Constitution of the country, the union of Statef, and the enforcement of the Ltaes; and that, as representatives ot the Constitutional Union men of the country, National Convention assembled, -we hereby pledge onr- sclves to maintain, pnJRTct, and defend, sepcrate- and unitedly, these great principles of public liberty and national safety against all enemies, at hofce and afcoaa, believing thereby peace moreBe restored to the country, the just rights of tlApeople and of the States re-established, and again placed in fraternity, aad equality, Aat the BWrtTmay get 1 the FALB, iif peraflventure such, a ea strophe should happen him.

That Mr. MOORE is consistent in his course, and the Tribune inconsistent, it is only Secessary to take up the record of past to prove, and to show the people of this county what reliance can be placed in the protestations of this newly fledged Lincoln-Breck organ, and to convince every candid man of the Tribune's insincerity of its recent con version to Hepublicanism, it is only necessary for us to make a few extracts from that most consistent sheet.

We have the most encouraging accounts fiom the South, while at the same time the North is beginning to awake to a sense of duty. The New York Herald of the llth inst.

It says, it is convinced beyond doubt, that BELL is the man conservative men of the country he thinks it is the policy of all good Union lovhig men, to rally to the support of the Constitutional Union Party. The Harris County Enterprise, published at Hamilton, Ga thus closes an article in relation to a democratic meeting held in their place. It says Men of Harris, be of good cheer, our opponents are hopelessly divided and dispirited, while out columns stand firm and united with recruits daily coming in." Yes, we would say to the BELL men every where, be of good cheer.

We have no room to complain but have great to rejoice. Our prospects are be- pffming brighter and brighter every day Not one in a hundred of the men who are now forced to speik of the BELL party, would condescend, even to acknowledge the existence of such a foe, eome two months ago.
