In a recent rpeechJ pahtUVet with the silent approval of the Ohio State Journal, the Commercial and other Abolition papers. General B, F." Butler boldly advocate the policy of Chaae and-Stanton, to ahoIMi not only slavery, but the Southern State and reduce them to the condition of Territories. Nor in this proposed 4a a nar measure, ibut to be carricl into execution upon the restoration of peace. Now, if a majority can destroy the State Governments of the South to-daj, another majority may, : at some other day. destroy and abolish the. Government of Ohio, and reduce our people to the condition of bondmen! ; .... But. can such. a flagrant wrong be committed, without the danger of a general revolu-: tion? ! . The Democracy advocate the maintenance of the Constitution, and the preservation of the Union. Such a policy would give us union, peace, obedience .to : the is wo, and general prosperity, while the rabid doctrines of the AUoli'ioBMU. if carried out, will end in armed revolution. Let the people make their choice. Sr. Stanton Sayi he Elected Cartin.

The Toronto (Canada) Jeadsr, which is noted for i's warm advocaey of the Confederate Southern cause in an article upon the late elections, says : "elections in the koth. "Elections took place yesterday for State and local officers in New York, Massachusetts, Michigan and other Northe n States. The States named seem to have been carried . by the Republican or 'Union' party Massachusetts and Michigan by large and increased majorities over last year, and New York probably by a small tnsority. This Union party goes for an unconditional support of the wa and the policy of the Federal Government for emanciiation. confiscation, subjugation and annihilation of the South and is the same party under another name, that did so much to bring a lout the riril war. It has at these elections, at any rate beaten out of fight the Democratic party. ' "JVo one who vuAe ike South well, tn its gallant ttmgglr fvr InteptndeMcet earn rrgret that t kit party has been defeated, for U u far more dangerout in the &mik, tckick it emdemott to win over by fair promt, than the ope enemy that attempt to eontmi it with, the bayet.

He evidently expects that 1 he people at the North will be astounded at the audacity of any' one ilaring to ' plot'' the restoration of the old State of Louisiana to the Union. Listen to him : - ; . ' ' So much for one phase of this war ; now, for a glance at another. The Pro Slavery Copperhead party of- this State are known to nave lieen holding meetings' secretly for some time pastrtmt where and tor what special purpose they were very' careful to keep from those ikey knew not to he in sympathy with them. .The secret has at last leaked out. On Wednesday evening last a gentleman well known to your correspondent, waa invited to attend a meeting in the upper room of the Masonic Hall, St. Charles Street.- He went, and there he found, much to his surprise, a party of some 12 or 14 holding a caucus for the purpose of nominating members of Congresa, and also members of the Stau Legislature. - W h at an atrocity to be sure 1 Th ink of the horrid idea of Louisiana electing members of Congress 1 and what ap unheard of affair this bold attempt to make nominations! The radical people, "the " unconditional XJnionista," hereabouts, the Loyal Leaguers, Butler admirers, and self-styled loyalists, must have been thunderstruck at this announcement in the Tribune. No one of them, in all professions of love for the Union, desire for the Union, hope, trust, sacrifice, and all that, for the Union, had intended to permit the Union to be restored by "the process of bringing Louisiana and other State back into it ! But let us read more of the plot. The correspondent sayst Now for the platform of these men. It is nothing less than an attempt to set the old State machine, with all its villainous laws and edicts, in full operation. The way in which they propose to accomplish this is one of the most daring and audacious pieces of villainy and trend ever attempted. It is a scheme as deep laid and as damnable as that by which the slave party sought to fasten slavery upon Kansas ; and unless the Free State men f the North are prompt in rendering the necessary assistance to the Free State men here, may lead to consequences s fatal as . Dc Cnttman threatened, when he, a couple of months ago, sid on the street of New York, .that ' our streets would flow with blood before the slave party hei would gw Why thfn, it seems the radicals intend they shall give up " their rights." Id not this rather an implication that we intend to do them a " wrong? The eloquence of this man over the "damnable Scheme" of setting up the "old Slate machine" of Louisiana, is radical ly refreshing. He evideuily think that the restoration of Louisiana, "with all her laws and edicts," (villainous be calls them), would be a terrible affliction to the country. Hear him further: From what we learn of the hopes and aapT-rations of these men. it appears that thi" do-IgS to retain- possession of the State power, is only the entering wedge. Kebels at heart, but satisfied that the Confederacy is an impossibility, they are "good Union men." who desire to have the " Union a it waa," after they have done all in their power to destroy it. They are anxious that Louisiana sbouKl take the lead, and " there ia no doubt but Mississippi and other State will in due time follow" their scheme of reconstruction of the Union, with slavery' In all ie pristivcrglorr. Ther even say that Gen. Grant and other officers under him are pledged to their sapport. How far this may be I dou'f know, I merely tell you what they say '. v.- - Tliis is a fair specimen of. what the radicals mean when they pretend to be Unionists. If a Southern party is found ready to abandon the war, give up rebellion, and come back in to the Union, " regarding the Confederacy as an iapuesibility." and desiring to find peace in the " Union as it was," th radicala, instead of encouraging such a movement, begin to shout to the Free State men North" to resist the possibility of thus restoring the Un tod. And she 5 Free State ma .North" will resist. and do resist, and while hypocritically preees sing to be Unionists, will steadfastly oppose every such scheme of,4TJnlonv just as 'thejr op pose this, and we greatly fear-thai the Admin istration at Washingte will join them in the same opposition.- We have long hnown that both Lmiisiaaa an JXissisatpni needed but an opev fankv Americaa, word of assisUnce and dedge' aafety from aWashbgtoa vto uke their otaadtil the-Union at one.'
