Who is TO do NJ A single drop of blood

Nothing is more certain than that the

at the last Presidential election. The hon.

they differed with the Republican. upon

Thurlow Weed, in an article in to nights

Springfield in the following terms:
"Since the newspapers have made our
recent visit to Springfield the occasion of
remark, it may not be improper to say,
that an interview with Mr. Lincoln has con.
frmed and strengthened our confidence in
his fitness for the high position he is to
occupy; of his eminent qualifications for
the great trust reposed in him; of his en-
lightened appreciation Of the difficulties
and dangers that surround us; of his de-
sire that the free States, if anything delin-
qusnt, should fulfill their constitutional
duties; of his determination TO require from
all the States an endorsement of the law
and obedience to the Constitution; and a.
nally, of his earnest and infexible devo
ton to the principles and sympsthies OF
