WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 25. Tne Democratic PaRTy.—The faction _ which rallied in. the last contest under the . ‘name of Democrats die ‘hard. Ong would think that-afver.the signsl defeat they suffer~ ed in that contest; alt who avowed and sus“ jlnahaeiaeiaien so execrated by the Amer. ~ jgam people, would hide their heads in. éhame. “Witli 2 desperation only found when hope is lost; the copperheads persist~ently foree their hateful tenets upon the loyle. We now hear of an effort to re"organize that party upon a platform declaring the right of a State to secede from the Union. The dissolution of the Union is the only hépe upon which copperheads can rely for success. After “they had entered the contest under the guise ofloyalty and-been utterly routed, many supposed: that the hatred ‘which was displayed during-the contest for everything loyal would no longer be shown. How opposite has beea the copperhead course. The journals from one end to the other teem with abuse of our soldiers ; ~~ gut-wemen are slandered ; and men of high standing defamed, for no other reason in the Since the jeanguretion of the war scores of officers have been removed from. their. commands for Various reasons. and many of . them are now idle b salaries. The pay of these unemployed officers amounts to several millions of dollars annually, Under the impression that a stop . an should be put to this dead-head-system, a [bill tins passed the House of. providing that all Generals who shall not, on acertain day in Februafy, be in actual service, shall cease to be connected with the army. Following is a list of the Is whose names will probably be dropped from the pay-roll in the event of the passage of the bill. All of them are at present unemployed.

We know that there are.many men whe acted with the heads who frown upon these. things, ‘but the leaders, the men whose ends can be secured only by a preservation of the Demoeratic organization, pursue this coiirss. As ~ tarthe last contest, so now are copperhead hopes ‘built upon Union defeats. They . trembleatthe triumphs of Unionarms, The thovement for reorganization originated in ” New York, and the call-has been sounded _ Zach. Montgomery of this State. The prospect of these men is certainly dark for the future. They are blind and exnnot discern the sigus of the times. The day when such a party as that proposed to be orgahized can meet.with success in the United States is. forever past. The large majority of the people of this country detest thé doctrine of State rights. Itis losing ground every day and many men who voted for McClellan could never be induced to join such 'a party. The men who promulgate this doctrine and sustain -such 4 party will be despised by the mass of the people, Such is the condition, of feeling in the North . to-day. Does any sane man believe that after the South returns to the Union after the rebellion is crushed, that the people of that section will ever elevate to power a man who . holds this doctrine which has been the cause ofall the-wee of the South? The time is at hand when State Rights, as interpreted . : _\ tp lbalgomery and bis clase will be as un. populax:imthe South as they aré now in the Nerth. As State Constitutions are amendod in time, the paramount authority of the ‘General Government will be declared, and the time will soon arrive when such men as Montgomery will be as much detested ‘oughout the length and breadth of the as are the. doctrines et, now bead “ara ielilbebiichded: writing to the SacUnion, from New York, says fifteen § are now on their way to California, Ss declared intention of “changing Condition.” If they made a secret of it, we should. also, but they admit the fact epi, Fone 8) young—one only ‘the others are of various “middle ages"—one, the most hopeful, who feels !
