As we have often said before, we again repeat, note is eminently “the wed time of ideas," touching the policy which should govern the Democratic Party, in their next General Convention, both in relation to platform and candidate,; in order to effeot that unify in Council and unity in Action, which are oasential for the rescue of Public liberty from the grasp of thoso now holding Power, and whose object is Centralized Empire. On tba line of policy we hare advo cated, we take the liberty of giving onr readers to-day, some extracts, from a letter jnst received from a Democrat, of Maine. We do not know the writer per sonally, hat we know him from reputa tion, and assure our readers he is a gen tleman of position iu that State, whose statements moy be relied upon, and whose views and opinions arc entitled to high consideration. In reply to his inquiry we say, we believe there is a mode by which the ‘‘ocmseiumj honorum omnium," stated by him, can be obtained. Let there be a free interchange of views between the leading man of the true De mocracy, in every Stato of the Union; and let them see to it, that no delegate be sent to the General Convention, who is notlme to the “Jefferitmi.iii creed”—and who will, under no circumstances or any temptations, consent to a Departure therefrom, so far as the Democratic or ganization is oonecrued. A. H. S. Me., September 28, 1871. Hon. A. H. Stephen$ : Dear Sir: I have just rend a recent communication of yours to The Atlanta Sun, on “The great issues involved in the content of 1872, and the unity of the Democratic Party. ” As n Northern Democrat, I thank you for that article, as well os for that most admirable and exhaustive work, your “Constitutional view of the war between the States.” Were this on ago in which the maasos of the people, or any consid erable number of them, would stop to examine into tho principles of govern ment in general, or of onr goverumont iu particular, a careful perusal of your vol umes would lead thorn to discard central- ization, and to cling to tho “Jeffcrooniau creed." “You aic quite right, especially so far as Maine is concerned, iu ussortiug that the Resolutions of her late Democratic Convention so far as they indorse the “New Departure," do not express the views of the honest masses of the De mocracy. It would be difficult to flud Democrat in Maine, who would maintain that the 14th and 15tli amendments are just and right." “ But the great muss of the Democrats of Maine heartily eoudomn those amend ments. In this Congressional District 1 have oonvened with hundreds of Demo crats siaoc our State Convention, and 1 hare not get met teilh the first one who ap proves the “ New Departure. ” JRt univer sally condemned. Not one of our county conventions in this District would in dorse it. Not a siugle county oouveu- tion in the State directly accepted the amendments. Three or four of them onjy did go so far iu that direction as to indorse the State platform. So severe and general was the condemnation of the State platform among the massea of the party, after it was promulgated, even though its acquiescence in the amend ments was in a very mild form and sugar- coated with a Bovero "condemnation of the means by which they were adopted," the few advocates of the “ New Depart ure" did not dare to ask for an ex press and independent approval in tho county conventions. What is true of Maine in this particular, I apprehend, is true of all the Northern States, Ms cluisetts excepted. Policy, and policy nlouo, secured for the “ New Departure" its approval in the ■tale conventions that have been held. The late elections in both Maine and California have demonstrated that that " policy" waa most impolitic. The “New Departure" did not give ns a tingle Re publican vote in either of those States. It chilled thousand* of Democrats so they could work with no heart or teal. My own judgment is, that the “New Departure’' is now dead. I have strong hopes that wo shall not even hc.tr of it in onr National Convention next year. You must have observed that, of Iota, even the New York World has not been very enthusiastic over the amendments^ I entirely agree with you that thKe must be "union in sentiment" before there can bo "unitod action.” In ordor that there may he this "uuiou iu seuti- meat” in our National Com tmliou next year, should Uisre not be an exchange of views, previous to its assembling, among leading man f” “Now in relation to both candidate aptl platform, cauthore not be seine mole devised, by which men who think alike, con, through their constituents, secure expression ol their views ami wishes j? °* r next Convention f In a word can n°t he a "consensus honorum on,- mumr Yours Truly, . ^V>W*N^«£y The lint olui steamship*! .DEARBORN, Commander.

Nplfl, dead-asleep policy advocated by some, while we are being rapidly borne down the curren^whioh is rushing into the whirlpool of Radicalism, Central ism and Imperialism. The Radicate, with the aid of bayonets, have thrust upon us the unconstitutional and wickedly opprensivc „ ‘depart" from the faith of their fathers. Some of them bare already goue over to the enemy’s camp ; and while they and the Radical cohorts which they have Joined are calling out Ins til) for us all to go with them, a few others are advising u* to bold our peace test w« disturb the harmony aud distract the counsels of tho Democratic Party I Verily, if ws should hold our peace, “the stones would cry out" W* cannot remain silent W* cannot thua counsel our people to accept and welcome their own ruin, aud thank God for the privilege ! It Is of the utmost importance that these issues be discueeed now ; for the adoption of a time-serving “ departure " by the General Convention of the Party will be, not only wrong in principle, but in our jodgmeut it will be fatal in policy. Fidelity t» the Oonstitutiou is the true test of Democracy in everv State of the Union, and we recognize every one who is s true friend to that ascred instrument, as a co-worker with we is the great cause of American Liberty.
