THE POLICY OF THE ADMINISTRATION.
Great anxiety felt with regard to tho action Of Con.
gress during the present week. relation to the conas
cation of slaves, and other that have been
brought before the Senate and the House. Tho admins
tration, however, has undoubted majority in both
branches Of the national legislature and every attempt
at abolition legislation will be successfully met both BY
votes and by argument. noted anti-savery agtator
remarked this morning:-"Wc do not expect to carry
measures, but shall awaken public sentiment and
prepare the way for revolution against the imbecie
policy of tho President and his couuselors" This
awakening public sentiment and enlightenment of tho
Intelligence Of the Masses is precisely what Mr. Lincoln
and his friends want They convinced that the sober
second thought Of the North will endorse with an over.

desire the restoration of the integrity Of the Union
and It's liberation from tho dangers that encompass it.
AS it is OF the utmost moment that every should
know exactly upon what ground the President stands
you may accept the following facts as unquestionabc
l. That the President is resolutely determined to
any scheme whatever, involving the emancipation Of
negroes, in such manner that they turned loose
upon the Southern States equality with tho white
occupiers of the soil He Saturday evening, uttered
the following Emancipation would be equiya

words that fell from the Presidents lips nearly he
could remember them, and thinks they exactly what

might be regarded the fanatical disturbance which tho

Senate and tho House persuaded that the Of

3. Abolition politicians will shortly open their eyes to
this fact that the entire army is against hom and they
will then dare continue urge their nefarious
and unpatriotc projects, than tho On Richmond
demagogues of i've months ago did to risk the dangers
defending their clamorous outcrics against the admins

advantages they imagine must from agitation of
the slavery question will be wholly against themselves
and will ruin them in the Dyes Of the nation They have
