Tue ArotTneosis oF INAcTioNn.—Since the breaking out of this'rebell'on, both under Buchanan’s: and Lincoln's Administrations, ‘there have been many presses‘in the loyal States ready to apetheosize the military commander who would do the least to suppress revult and restore the supremacy of the Government. There were thecrists, whe believ__ed, or'snid. thatthe rebellion would end itself by its,own violence, and ttiat little should , be done but wait the issue of events. The old Democratic principle—" that government is best which governs least”—had taken possession of a large vlass of minds, and ‘that commander is best who does the least’? was the legitimate child of the parent principle. Accordingly, acting upon acttled convictions, we have seen. for more than -two—long—and ~bloody-years 0 powerful influences exerted all over our cougtry by. mien who have.no sympath yt the: ‘partyin, power to hold back the hands raised to strike the monster stabbing at the vitals of our nation; and even we have seen hundreds who ought to have been equal to an understanding -of the necessities of the times, who claimed to be the especial champions of the Government, clogging the march of public sentiment. as it sought. to solve the great question of self government by a forward ¥adical movement. Those men who comprehended the magnitude of the contest at the outset have been —hooted and disgraced;winle the minds that ran in the old and.narrow ruts made by purtisen. wear in time of peace have been te cepted as the exponents of true warlike pelicy. The weak and the timid count on safety more in frail vessels coasting within sight of their native hills. though the breakers are near, while the wise and the brave, knowing the strength of their gallant ship, aro sure of greater safety though all lund-marks are lost in the trackless deep_ Genius and-action have had the go by too much in this war, and King Log has had his eroaking worshippers ‘Times are changing. Under the rule of Rosecrans, Butler and Hooker, a new order of things has commenced. Still the adorers of the sluggish. Me Clellan find an ample field for their jugglery and deception. He was raised to the elevation of a Napoleon in public estimation, privcipally by the men whose chiefest pride is to assert the superiority of a race cultivated without let or hindrance during countless agea, over unother debased, demoralized and ddgraded through years of ignorance and slavery’ Swceasivnists glory in the inaction of loyalist. They rejoice. in the do-nothing policy formerly practised by the Government, and join their voices With might and Main against any course calculated-ty strike decisively at either the rebela or their prep. erty. They’ would like to see open and avowed traitors in command of loyal armies, but’hs that can hardly be realized, the next best course for them to pursue is to laud that pohey which will produce the least good resulta to the Union cause. ‘Therefore, they’ have strong and never tiring voices in lwuda tion of McClellan, Fitz-John Porter, and men of that ik, and nothing ein exceed their hatred of those who would weaken rebellion by anatching away the laborers that produce the bread for its support. “Do-nothing” has been sanctified too long. Genius, faith-and daring are the trinity that must be substi. tuted for worship. : GREENBACKS AGAIN.—The parson haa written himself down an ass-again on the greenback question. It is strange that some men who know nothing whereof they write will assume to mstruct a ‘community.— We'll wagera blanket with the parson to be given to any one who sleeps cold, that the pa‘son has never road the lawunder which tne State Treasurer acts; another blanket that he can't make an intelligible argument against the Treasurer en the basis of facta; and still another that he can't show anv one but sharpers, was injured by the action of the State Treasurerin the greenback transaction. We doubt ifhe ever read the Treasurer’s Report. . se ‘The parson and his kind, remind wa “ol Henry Ward Beecher’s dog, that, having seen a emall squirrel run in a hole kept barking at the mouth of the hole and looking fe. rocious at it for sixmonths after. No lapse of time could getit out of the dog's memory that there must be a — in the hole be« cause be saw one runin there. And su he kept barking away at nothing, the squirrel all the time being anywhere but where the “dog imngined. ee “ ENFORCEMENT need a State law for the enfurcement of eontracts. Itis aprinciple of State Constitux. tiuns that no law shall be passed imparing the obligation of contracts. It ia thus estab~ lished that State laws should favor the en-~ forcement of the obligation of contracts, and many of our Jawyers are of the opinion that a-note given payable in gold coin can be col« lected under present laws in geld coin or its equivalent. With honest men there is no need of any,.law on this point, for they: will comply with their obligations whatever-they may be. But in dving business it sometimes happens that dealings are had with pers6ns having no care for their reputation, and it-is for these that compulsory laws are required. In order to guard the righta,of honést meu and compel rascals to dojustice, it would be wellfor the present Legislature to enact a law enforcing the obligation of contracts that stipulate payment in coin.
