this reverence for authority, and for institu-
tons which have stood the test Of three-qnar-
tiers Of n centurys wear and tear, is crime
sufficiently black in the eyes OF the philosophers
OF the Tribune to unfil him for his Office Just
read what they say
Justin, Old Latin hstorss, says that the Gcyisy
could not subdue their revo.cd slaves until they
them with wbips instead Of swords II tho habit ot
the slaves to Yea to whips; ant whips, with the help
OF this habit were therefore msisier upon them than
swords. Now, President Lincoln would DO M brave
lion in the presence Of the biggest gun tho whole
sonlaern army Bus only remind han of his conslta
him where habit has eady taken and nquered hir
aud he becomes az weak az a scy THAN slave.
Very respectful, truly, to the Chief Magistrate
to hold him up for the finger of scorn to point
at as a slave who only be controlled by the
fear Of whip But in the sight of all good
men-all except radical levcllcrs--,this accusa-
ton against the President is his highest praise
Law is the harmony Of the universe-thc bond
Of the moral as well as the physical world-and
without law men arc without God. Reverence
for the Deity is reverence for law, which is an
cmanation from himself. The constitution is
the fundamental law; and if to reverence it be.
weakness on the part Of the President, we'll may
the friends of law and order feel proud of this
trait in his character. It Is thg hope Of the
nation OF the contrary opinion arc the infidel
philosophers Of the tribune. They say that
God is lighting against us" because Fir. Lincoln
will rot make tie struggle for the Union and
TIE constitution an abolition war, but, by day
ifg his hand upon the proclamation OF Fremont
has blasted an the hope it had awakened
Again, the President is described as c1nceit-
cd,s because he meddied with tie procisma
ton; and il The Ncrth sustain him and Go not
"traasple the constitution az deep under foot as
the South has DONE" then :" hell ysuq,s
wide for such foolish nation" Bat
there il hope yet, say the revc,utionists of tie
T}Ituy,s, for "thc county is the umpire between
the President md Fremont, and it has already
shown isseif to be on the side Of Fremont"
What stte intcronccl 1t is that the Pres,4
dent be "auperseded," ss one of The abolition
ist journs1s recommended some time ago,
and that Fremont be put in lis stead
by Lsoody revolution at The North
This is the result for which tie
Tribune ard lie other orgsasw of abolition are
Iaborng, an flor which 60 many Of The anti
slavery ciergs>are dcsecratsag the pulpit and
disgracng the Christian religion. IF the gov
eminent at Washington pcrrais' these Northern
traitors to pro secd any fnrtisrin their dark de-
signs, may hive cause to regret iss forbear-
snce when 1t is TOO late.
