Intrigucs or Northern Observation-Disclosures
Meetings to Sustain Fremont.
1t may be safely asserted that the only sub
stantial difficulties with which Mr.. Lincolns ca
reer thus far has been beset, have come FROM
some Of those who raised him to power, under
the false supposition that they could use him rs
! a tool with which to work out their own diabo-
heal ends, but who have become his Interest
opponents since they have found it impossible
to induce him to trample upon his oath Of Of
fee, and, in subserviency TO anti-slavery fanati
cism, prostitute his high position for the final
overthrow of our national prosperity, II was
| they who, day by day, screeched and yelled
into the ears Of Union generals that they should
advance upon Richmond, contrary to the judy
ment of the ablest military men in the qQuntrr.
and, 70 whose insane and ignoraantt outcries the
disaster Vas attributable at Bull run, which
threw us back nearly six months, and has cost
the country close upon a hundred millions Of
dollars. They even demanded that the Presi-
dent should be superseded, and urged that
private citizen should usurp the Chief Magstra-
cy of the land. From this blind madness for
! premature conflict, the organs OF this same
wicked faction passed over, with equal treache
ry and inconsistency, to the most whining de-
spondency predicting calamity and defeat, and
urging the imrossibility of an suspicious issue
to the war. They represented the forces of
General Mcclellan as vast armed
mob, unfit for battle, sucking away the
life blood Of the nation, and insisted that an
"inglorious peace would be preferable to tho
| maintenance of such useless standing army.

North and South into an abolition foray against
the property Of shareholders, they felt were de-
feated by the frmness and wisdom of the Presi-
dent, whom they have not hesitatcd to abuse
and rcvie in the most nnmeasured terms, going
so far as to call him the ''worst enemy of free
DOM and "the slavehound of Illinois,"
The last effort q :ss see!lt!ga fiction s.
has turned upon the policy Of the govern
ment in removing General Fremont. Little
reck they of his incapacity or insubordi-
nation; they have no sense for anything
beyond his illjudged proclamation, decreeng
the con6scation Of slave property and upon this
| ground alone they affect to be ready to sustain
him, even to the extremity of raising the STAN
| dard of revolt against the Washington authori-
ties, and proclaiming himself dictator of the
Northern States. The anti-slavery journals
have been loud and unceasing in their panegy-
RIGS of an officer, whose only merit in their eyes
consists in his willingness to pander to their
| worst passions, and aid in carrying out their
most parricdal and infamous schemes. We
interior, that several prominent members of the
Greeley and Garrison party, have lately been
| in correspondence, with view to holding
mass meeting, either at Syracuse OF Utica, for no
| other purpose than "to sustain John G. Fremont
| and the principles set forth in his proclama-
tion." They declare that the conduct of Secre-
tary Cameron must be denounced, and that the
people must pronounce, in voice not to be
misunderstood their resolve " to stand by
their military commanders" Plain people,
continues the incendiary newspaper which con-
veys to us this Intelligence, " believe that we
are fighting with straws, until We adopt the
policy Of General Fremont, in utterly confsca-
ting the property, slave or otherwise, of every
rebel who dares to raise his red hands against
| our country and her flag" The Specification of
this, is precisely the same as the declaration Of
Mr.. Greeley that :" slavery, nothing but slave
ry /" has caused all of the evils that have be-
| fallen the United States, and that it must be
exterminated, at whatever loss of life, treasure
| and even Of freedom.
! 1t is high time that such infamous teaching :;
such bold, arrogant contempt for the administra-
| ton ; such wild defiance Of every guarantee
offered by the constitution to the people of the
South, in the possession Of slave property,
should be summarily silenced and reduced
within the limits Of common sense and decency,
by the strong arm Of the law. A call for mass
meeting TO sustain General Fremont. in face Of
the evil he is known to have done, is stun
bling block in the path Of every loyal individual,
which ought Instantly to be removed. News
papers that circulate sentiments like those that
are put forth by our Beecbers, Greeleys, CARR
sons, and Raymonds ought not 10 be allowed by
our Postmaster General to circulate through
the mails, and those who contribute for their
columns should be locked up in some federal
fortress, until they become repentant Of their
! misdeeds, make sincere promise to do so no
more and join the ranks Of those who are labor
ing with one heart and one soul for the restora-
ton of our glorious country to the high place
among nations from which it has been shaken
