That we may not be misunder stood, we again publish (Tor the benefit of new subscribers) the following, which originally appeared some weeks since in the editorial columns of the Watchman. OUR POSITION. In defending the principles of the American Party—which we believe it to be our duty to do—we wish it dis tinctly understood, that we wage no warfare against Democracy or Whig- gery—Southern Rights or Unionism— indeed, against no party of present or past times, except the abolitionists. So far as the other parties named are con cerned, we regard them all as essential ly •* dead cocks in the pit.” It is true that certain designing demagogues and party hacks—aided by a few honest but misguided men, whom they have induc ed to remain with them around these dead carcases, are vainly endeavoring to galvanize them into a brief and spasmo dic resuscitation. But all their efforts will be worse than fruitless. As national organizations they are essential'^ dead, dead, dead ! This being the case, we are willing to inscribe on their tomb stones a suitable memorial of thi good they have done—whilst the evil they have brought about we are willing to bu ry with their dead bodies in the tomb of forgetfulness. We cannot think of waging war against dead carcases—nor is there any necessity for it. It is enough for us to defend the American party. We shall attack none of these defunct organiza tions, but so far as they are concerned act entirely on the defensive. In making this declaration, we do not pretend to say that we will not battle »ith the other great new party now form ing—the anti-American, or Foreign Catholic party— we know not what name it mav assume A Stirring Week.—Our city has been crowded with strangers from all parts of the State, during the present week, and great has been the speculation SYNOPSIS OF JUNE SALES.
