Mr. P. thought thnt. sin. e the battle of Hull Iti
ihe public tcntiment of the North had retrograded,
and in confirmation .,1" bi-t o|.inion, read an extract
from a letter ia Ihe IVht.hl Htr.\bl, in which the
writer saya, among e.iher iliings. that the Abolitio
party must be kill" I in Mrissi-.b..-..-its, and that thi
would "do more to ehow our Southern frienda that
wc are really friends to them, tl.au all other things
combined"! lie also rend from aa editorial in
Tlic Herald, in which it is declared" Tht Herald
will oppose all attempts to make this an Abolib
war, or to foist .ipmi the eon fit ry the dogmas of Si
ner. Wilson nnd Andrew. These men have d
mischief enough. The war should to brought to ns
speedy a termination as possible, having a du.- n gar.
I
.0 our national honor." While the distress and snf-
fering and poverty created by ibe war were imreas-|
jig, it became ihem to niter, .1 to thie under current ol
feeling which finds voice in such organs as The
//n-nWnnd Thi J.jurnnl </ Commerce ill Now York,
and tho Boston Herald.
Oor government was a failure. There was no
inn in it. The hour had come, nnd there was no
lan enunl to the emergency. Wo hnd at the North
ineteen or twenty millions; nnd yet Diog.ues, with
is lighted lanlein fit noon-day, would search as
jopcl.e-sly for a in.m among these millions an when
he starched the streets of Athens Tor the Bamo pur-
e, two thousand years ago, Tho roliticinns who
irolb-d pul.be events had no nm i-sln very heart in
._, matter. He doubled not that Abraham Lincoln
would rather abolish slavery ihnu see it continue,
and be believed thai ih- u,!.,..nU of Northern D.'nn.-
crats would be glad lo get rid nf that which hnd
been tho ruin of their party and of so many other
parties; but then. tl..i were without a cootrolling
clement at the centre. They were a great body, bor
where was the soul ! There was no direction, at
capability, and. what was far worse, no honesty an-
no integrity. Pol. ii. inns no. 1 patties had been trici
before. The Whig part; bad been tried , and tb
cause nf humnmt, owed more to the Whiy r.urly. ii
