THE HERALD BLOWING HOT AND
| COLD.
Few persons unacauainted with The Heraffs
system of ground and lofty tumbling would
imagine, from the frantic demonstrations now
daily made against Gen. Fremonts course,
what the tone of thai paper was upon the
same subject few weeks ago. 1t is some
what curious, though certainly not astonishing,
to find that where unmitigated abuse is law
ished now, nothing but unqualified praise was
awarded then. On the I'd of September, the
day after the publication Of Gen. Fremont's
liberatng proclamation, The Herald spoke as
! follows:
The energetic proclamation declaring the State Of Missouri
under martial law and g7ng freedom 20 the slaves OF ell
aveownc Is oud IL arms against the Government. aud The
highly efficient state Of organization TO which The army OF tue
Potomac already brought 60 show that the Govern
meet tile military ofes and the people Of the loya states
ss duly impressed with the importance ofthe task before
them and undertaking With The proper spirit energy
The prom, TieHo Of Fremont VIII strike terror
! throughout the Border Staies"
On the next day, Sept. 3, The Herald said:
The rebellion be Put down by some means Or an
other else 4 viii put p. down. and n0ing ee T

sctas upon his rssponbty he only carrying out the
ConscGiiou act, 20 FER as ne slaves axe concerned
| We have no fear Of the result"
On the next day, Sept. 4, it said:
"Thi. nuriic,.o viii be apt to sr up the Antsayery
hu,asm Of England to such degree TO edarsr The to
ton Cabue, Lords rseon and Russell and the present
cotton party sSppoHingE''
! Two days after, Sept. g. it said:
Fremons PROCLAMATION doubtless the Te,at Of careful
many M,sori slayelolderS WHO, with ali their love for Sc
cession love their rissers stu more We have every odsa
Secession plague ia Missouri will cure the patient as py
miracle
And, on the same day:
Fremont ought to be vigorously Imported by men and
money and arms aid munitions of"ar'
On the next day Sept. Z, it said:
We spprehend tha, the Danger to the Rebels Of having
their slaves liberated will be apt TO convince every
Of the wisdom Of sdheIng the Union he best security
! for their property"
On Sept. 9, it said:
"Gen Fremont mus, be supplied With men ard nd money
Immediately IN his hands to enable him 70 buy what Re
tSishou. delay red tape, oiicuInocuiion"
On Sept TO- it said:
Reputl.s which the slave Influence predominant,
naturally ga ahoy sq n DI Init and dstioyiBs n,
picsl Character will nord the that Il win
sssn be allowed endsHser the stability Of our n'iisuon'
! On Sept. Ia, it said
Ts way IN which Fremont and his associates working
up the Rebel, in Missouri IA altogether encouraging
And 50 on brightly and cheerily, until Sept.
| l5, when, 10
President Lincoln has officially pomussted the important
s ha he aSs, no, aPP,o; f s p,s.,B b. .ed ,ery
properly The General acted without authority and without
discretion in the matter
I On Sept 90 fast and furious in its pursuit
of the new scent, The Herald said:
"The proclamation Of M Fremont was piece Of dcta'
ouhp ,sin to the m1iny ard inluoortnaton m Ceorh
he MeIeAn war 10 was 'gnlene1d 70 dsas, oe' s'1 ny
epthenble, beoauie involving more serious consequences
As general specimen of blowing hot and
cold from the same mouth, the foregoing is
toerably succes ,ful but in the way OF more
! particular and direct examples, We submit the
following:
On the 9th Of September it blew hot, thus:
The true path to victory and speedy termination Of the
war down the Mississippi and In order to successful e1pe
dillon that direction Fremont ought to be vigorously sup
ported -
On the oath, it blew cold, thus:
Ho planned wild expeditions prcmaturey some down the
Bii.,i.pp" &C. iii contrary alike to the dictates
Of and military science 10 proceed Win an
expedition down the Mississippi" &c.
Here is a recent cold blow, dating Sept. 81:
Lyon sacrificed Of reinforcement Of 900
men. Owing the failure Of Cen Fremont send him
endorsements the grand object o. hi, expedition LOST
Here is the hot blow to match, dating Sept. 9:
she tLyon) died of red tape He would have been re-
enforced was By Cen Fremont but for lack OF means
OF transportation
Cold, Sept. 10:
"hn III advised proclamation which carried ont the ideas Of
the Abotionists high handed piece of nsubordins.on
! Hot, Sept. 6:
"The result Of cueful deiberaion, and win operate to
. make practical men Of mauy Missouri sayeholder@'
And, once more, Cold, Sept. "a
But for the Presidents letter Kentucky would have been
by this time plated out Of the Union BY the cons traitors
who seized upon Femons proclamation the instrument by
which to accomplish their notorious design"
! Answered in advance, by Hot, Sept. 3:
We presume that the Hsidou conspirSors In loyal Ken
lucky VIII seize upon this edc. Of Fremont 10 drsg
their uto the Of til, rebellion But We have
| fear Of the result
This will suffice to show up The HerdlGs
