honestly consider. before voting. the following
condemnation of the Administration and OF Con
greS, by leading members of their own PARTY.
Such censure coming from an opposite political
party might be regarded as the expression of par
tisan hatred, but those who have made the AMI
madversIons we print below are in full communion
and fellowship with the Republican party.
As recently as the middle Of September the
New ork Times said:
The people look upon the Government al
Washington as actually falling 10 pieces. Men
OF oil parties tremble with lear when they see the
authorities utterly incompetent to the great task
deyolved upon them"
We quote again from the Times:
Hitherto President Lincoln has given US no
constitutional administration He has assumed
himself TO be the sole executye-with0ut any
fixed aud stable polcy-and controlled according
to the shifting drifts Of public sentiment anC
the changing judgments and caprices of his own
mind
One more extract from the Times: can i'm
beetle Administration has given indis putable
proof OF its inability to conduct the war. Ever
us own friends confess its impotence, and are
medtatiug its displacement"
The Albany Eoening Journal, one of the lead
ing Republican newspapers IN the country, SAYS
Weak men have disgraced and bad men have
betrayed the Government Moral desperadoc:
have locked about the National Capital and lain
in wait for prey. The of the land Ia:
gathered about the sources of power and defilet
them 10y its reek and offensive odor.
Mr. Dawes, Republican member of Congress.
from Massachusetts, says: There is indubta
bic evidence that III the first year Of this Repub
lean Administration the public treasury has bee.
plundered much the entire current yearly
expenses OF the Government during the Admin
istration which the people hurled from pow be
cause of It's corruption" This was six months
ago, and then the slight investigation OF corrup
ton reveale the fact that there had been plum
dered, stolen, from the Government sixty tire,
millions OF dollars
Thurlow Weed. the leader of the Republican
party in New York. thus describes the presen
Congress: at hiss deal of buncombe of ab
surd generalization, of vapid buster, of wind
defamation, of pharisaical pretense and asSer
ton of superior wisdom. 1t has been severel,
afflicted with the infrmty OF not knowing IL
legitimate business. or knowing, to be incapabl,
OF attending TO 1t"
The New York Erenino Post, in commentin:
on the speech OF Governor Set mour, in the Dem
ocratic State Conv ention, said: His charge
against the Administration were true, and hi
complaints just"
We can turn To- back numbers of the Abolition
newspaper published here, and find there a re
hearsal and confirmation of the charges agains
the administration here alleged
We can find more bitter censure OF the Admin
istration in Abolition newspapers published prio
To September %. le62. than can tie found il
Democratic Journals of previous or subsequen
date. hese censnres were not confined to a con
dennation OF the policy pursued in relation Il
slavery. but were general and sweeping in thei
denunciations of the inibecility and corruption
which pervaded every department of the govern
ment. Abotionism is condemned by its owl
record. Ii it is not sentenced by the people on
Tuesday next, the confession of crime in thi
government should forever absove the criminal
