Tho course to ho pursued by theConstitutionnl Un ion Party i* ouo of vast consoqucnco to the party, to tho South and to tho coun try. While thoreforo wo act with promptness and energy, lot us be gov erned by wisdom nnd patriotism. Wo hold tho hnlanco of power between tho contending factions of tho Democratic party.

Tills Union perhaps, bo oflected upon oquitn- blo and lionorahlo terms. If tho Con stitutional Democracy rejoct such an overture, it will bo convincing proof that love of principle is not their motive of action, but that they aro fighting for the ascendency in their own party* The purity of our motives will then l»o bo- yOnd question, nnd our course so clear ly marked out that move but dema gogues will refuse to follow it, nnd tiono but their victims can err therein. Then forty thousand true inch in tho State of Uoorghu who have never been •onquored, though often defeated, who have never been misled, though often out iced, who huvo never fultorod though often in the lniuority, will onco tuoro give evidence to tho world that they love their country more than party. According to our recollection, nnd tho resolution wo published lust week from the Savannah llcpublican, the Ex ecutive Committee nro authorized to nominate Electors. But the- - interests of the Country and tho success of our principles demand that n Convention of tho pnrty, after culm doMhei ation and vise consultation, shall determine cu ddly and policy in the present exigency. Wo therefore enter our emphatic protest against tljoexorcise of tlmauthority con fet’lvd upon tho Cnniniittco to nomi nate an Electoral ticket. Wo have sig nified our willingness to unite with the iitutioiml Democracy upon'fair uml quul terms. All hope of such ft Union is not yet extinct. So fnr as we can discover tho proper spirit animates both parties in thii section. We tliofeforo call uj>on the Constitutional Union press to ndviso and insist upon tho call ol* a Conven tion.- It Is the path of. safety, and if no nthor good can possibly result from It, wo can at least consult together, as to our plan of operations and bring words of encouragement to each'othov from tho yarious sections of the State. hi the Idtra Sbuthorn disunion Stato of Alabama, nnd is a candidate forro-oloc- tion to the United States Senato, hence ho thinks It best to yield to the popular ourrent, os n mattor of policy.

Tho following story of tho lirat alut Inst military exploit of Abo Lincoln Is told by tlio Tolodo JVmrr: At tbo timo of tlio Black Ilnwk war --Abo- enlisted. Tbo company mus tered 80 mounted men. They started off in fino spirlta to ongngo in tl,o deadly fray. Arriving at a point on tho prai ries about two hundred mllca from tho Indian linos, tho party hlvonackod lor tho night picketed thoir lioreos nnd slopt on thoir arms. Tho method of picket ing tlio horses was that In common u»o —fastening nhugeropo sumo olglity feat In length to a stnko firmly planted nnd then using smnller lines of .consid erable length, ono ond attnohod to tho nnimnl's neck, nnd tho other to tlio main rope.

Thinking him self caught in nn Indian ambush, ho gathorod up, mounted, nnd putting mors to Ids liorso, took tho opposite is tho vote .hy • i was nomt- im promt It lias boon assorted that Mr. Everett Is hi favor of tho abolition of slavery in' the District of Columbia. Wo demand tho proof of this. In 1850—’51. he stood sldaby sltlo with Webster. Diokinson. Clay, Cass, Calhoun, Crittenden, and other old nnd distinguished statesmen, inon Iho groat adjustment measures, - 'hoso measures declared against the abolition of slavery In the District of Columbia, und comprised a fugitive slave law. They ivcro against tlm Wll- ■not Proviso, and tlm further agitation of Mm slavery question; In short, ho stood with'FUlmore, upon tho Goorgin C lforin, and was his accomplished rotary of 8tato.

But it may not,n word to offer. All I want is be asked, does Mr. E. still stand upon that compromise? Wo answer in tho affirmative. Whilst Douglas and his confederates prove faithless to tlvoiv pledges, and ronmved tho sluvory agi tation by tho Kansas swindle; Mr. Eve- —„ — rr . _ i-ott remained t rue to his principles boon oooupled in common by two broth- and pledges.
