thority. The eloquent treason Of Phillips and
the meddling. interfering treason of Loveioy
are ringing in governmental ears daily, and it
becomes time that stop should be put to it.
The Government must look to disoyalty and
treason at home if it would overcome rebellion
abroad
Why is not the Constitution and the Law
printed in letters of gold and exhibited in pub
lie places that it may shame and confcund the
miscreants who would rend it in sunder. Let
the law be enforced at home; let the sin Of dis
loyalty be got'ei rid Of in the hosts of Israel ;
let the accursed thing be removed from the tent
Of Achan, and the people may see better days.
while Mr.. Lovejoy will perhaps better under
stand the vii chapter of Joshua.
R%M Mr.. Wendell Phillips has been delight
ing the radical AbolitioIsts of Boston with one
OF his characteristic speeches on slavery. His
abuse of TIE Federal Government and its policy
was nearly and unstinte,l. He styled the Cabi

Cabinet" "headless men whom history would
allow to divide curses with Aaron Burr" Let
Mcclellan, he said, make the liberation Of the
slave the object of the war and there will be no
foreign appeal from such an issue but it was
unfortunate that we had Kentucky for Presi-
dent, "who is but puppet in the hands of
ADLER men," He called upon Congress to abol-
ish slavery and thus checkmate England. "To-
day" he said ''is the accepted time-to-day is
the hour Of salvation"
