ssT Well, the thing Is done! Fremont

gathered aronnd him, by his own popularity,
by the bent of a genius that has never known
failure, by the real worth and homer of the
man, an army sufficient to battle and defeat
the enemy of the whole country and the inter
ested enemies of half-save Missouri Just at
the moment when the people of the whole
North were looking TO him for glorious results
from his active and energetic preparations, he
is sacrificed upon the altar of political envy !;
those who placed him there being fearful that
the gallant standard bearer of sc would ac-
qure too great an influence with the free
minds of the North. No better evidence
of the true patriotism of the man ie wanted
removal: he was just or the eve of battle, the
end that he had toiled for so long was about
to be accomplished. the men who had sworn
to fellow him to the death were impatient and
eager for the tray, the army was prepared to
raise Freedoms Banner on more noble emf
nence than that Of the desert mountain, The
morning sun was to shine on a more glorious
contest for Freedom in the West; but, "Repub-
lies are ungrateful," the hand that was raised
in power must fall lifeless to the side, and the
patriotic hope and ambition must be crushed.
while envy, jealousy and fear seek a solace
in his removal. When the army heard of the
removal, great excitement and Indignation
prevailed whole companies threw down their
arms and refused TO march under any other
Commander officers threatened to resign and
go home leaving the field, unfought. to the
Secessionists but, Fremont, with the same
power that had gathered them together, calm

of patriotism, urging them not to look to the
Individual but TO the Nation. What could be
more noble Holding a power in his hand
with which he could have made the whole
Nation tremble, he gives it up without mur
muir, hoping that in his removal his Country
may be benefited.
