LancoIn's Radicalism Proved-His ODE.
dienee 60 the Abolition Idea.
Some Of the black republican journals are
beginning to fear the effect Of Lincolns posi-
ton a. q radical candidate upon his chances
for election and are accordingly striving to
show that he Is man Of conservative tenden.
cies, who would not act up to the demands OF
the radical abolitio nists who support him.
The attempt Is an utterly futile and vain
one. Even IL lincoln were not the bigot and
extremist which bis own words and those Of
Seward prove him 10 be, he would necessarily
have to act on the one great idea which under
lies the whole structure of the black republican
party in his administration Of the government.
That idea is that slavery is an evil and a
crime On this basis the party has been built
up, and around IL have been gathered
other ideas belonging to the same school,
and intoxicating the eame exaggerated
notion OF individual rights, such as Four
rierism, woman's rights, and the numerous
lens that constitute the grand whole Of black
republicanism. But the argument OF abolition
ism Is lie mainstsy and chief dependence. The
abolition shop established here is busily issuing
such campaign documents as Summers speech
Helpers handbook for incendiAries, Lincoln's
life and speeches, and others OF q similar cha
racter, and hopes TO circulate million and q
half OF them In the next sixty days. The whole
party IL saturated with abolitionism of the
most rsbid kind, and Stewards declaration that
"the Massachusetts, school" was the school Of
black republicsnism has been City illustrated BY
the nomination Of Andrew, an Incorporating
abolitionist Of the Garrisonian stripe, rs black
republican candidate for Governor In that
State.
Ifany further proof IL wanted OF the radl-
cally revolutionary character of the black re-
publican party and its Presidential candidate,
!. may be found in Stewards speech at Detroi.
two days since. That speech Is undoubtedly
the foreshadoxing Of the policy Of Lincolns

cautious wording OF the most ultra dogmss In
American politics. He assumes the theory Of
