As our readers are aware, we have
predleted vftl otherz, that the Admins
traGon Of Mr. LrTcoLs would be q con
s~ervatfye one such as wouId al oDes
hansh al pretended or real fears Of az.
erosion or s~ectionaIIsm. Senator TEuM.
1ELL. Of Illinois. recently made q speech
at Springfield ia that Stale from which
we make the following extract;
"Mr. Lincoln, althoagh the candidate
Is che R~epu5Ican parry as ChIef Mays
trate, vii neIsher belong TO that or any
other parry. when iasaz1rated, lie vii
Be The President Of the country, and the
whole courtrT, and, ] doubt not, VIII be
as ready fc defend and protect the State
IN which be has not received a solitary
vote aga.ast ar e-lcs0acbment upon lis
constitutional rights, as the one n which
he has received the largest majority
While they. r. whose votes he has been
designated as Chief Magistrate Of the re-
public. viii expect him 10 maintain and
Czfry @rWaTl the principles ca which be
was elected, they know thai n DONG So
No e~ncFoacbment viii be made on the re-
served rights Of any Of the States They
know that the Federal Government -
Of delegated powers that Il can DO
nothing except the authority for the act
can be founi in the instrument which ere
ated II, AID tha;aH powers not conferred
are reserved 70 the States or the people
Of The State Hence, when their political
opponents have charged them with Abo-
HtionisIn or attributed 20 them a deslre
70 interfere with slavery In the States5 or
some fanatic has Insisted they ought odo
&c, the reply has Invariably been that the
people who made the Federal Govern
ment did not think proper to confer On II
such authority, aud It has therefore no
more right 70 NEEDLE wlh slavery n a
STATE than It has TO interfere with serf-
dom IN Russia. Nor are the people Of
the non-slaTeholding States IN any way
responsible for slavery in the States
which tolerate it, because to that question
they are swoTnto each other as indepen-
dent governments. Ibave laboTed IN and
for the republican organization with en-
ire confidence that whenever /! should be
In power, each and all Of the States
would be left ia as complete control Of
their v affairs respectively, and at as
perfect iibeF5y 70 choose aad employ their
own means Of protecting property and
preserving peace and order within their
respective kinks. as they have ever been
under any administration Those who
have voted fer Mr. Lincoln have expect
ed. and still expect ibis; and they would
nos have voted for him had they expected
otherwise. I regard It as extremely for
tHnate for the peace Of the whole country,
that this point upon which the Republic
cans have been so long and 50 persistent
IL misrePresented, IS now to be brought
70 a practical test, and placed beyond the
possibility Of doubt Ii should be a mat
ter Of rejoicing to all true Republicans
that they will now have an opportunity
q demonstrating to their Political adveT-
szries, aRd the world, that they are not
for interfering with the domestic InstItu-
tious Of any Of the States, nos the advo-
Gates Of negro equality nor amalgama-
tioa, with which political demagogues
have 50 often charged them. When this
is shown, a reaction will assuredIy take
place in favor Of Republicanism. The
Souihern mind even viii be satisfied, the
rights OF Northern men will be respect
ed, and the fraternal feeling existing IN
olden times, when men frOm all parts Of
The country went forth together to battle
for a common against a ommon
enemy, will be restored"
Private dispatches say that this speech
was prepared at the suggestion Of the Pre-
sident elect, and received his full approval
before II was spoken However this may
be, it is evident that Judge TruAbull, in
undertaking TO foreshaGow the policy Of
the incoming administration, would ad-
vance nothing which he had not full war;
rant for advancing. His very intimate
relations with AIr. Lincoln, abundantly
qualify him for doing that which Mr..
Lincoln himself IS precluded from doing
prior to his Inauguration.
