Politically there have been great bunders. The bor
der state failed to ssss upon the opportunity 70
ganize administration party whom the Presidents
emancipation resolution was presented. II they had
supported IT, tho radicals would have opposed and thus
separated themselves eectually from the body Of tho
republican party and become powsrless In Congress
The bunders Of the bordsrers that occasion gave the
rsins into the hands radicals and enabled he TO
control the legislation Of the session; but the republican
party 10 not unit. The Saturday night de-.
monsrated this. Numbers OF full booded republicans
left in disgust, and address agreed upon. The
radicals have carried matters far The
they may be % termed are unwilling follow these
reckless leaders and dash themselves pieces against

Of the for the Union and not for the
negro the border State will yet consent to stand
upon the Presidents policy the ultra abolitonsts will
be pushed to the wall.
