THE PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION.

The extngulsher Of abolition hopes has
appeared at last, in the shape Of proclama-
ton from President Lincoln in regard to the
foolish action Of Gen Hunter. 1t will be
found in our paper, to-day, and we hope it
will be taken as an evidence that Mr. Lincoln
means to put down abolitonism as well as
secessonism. He has whole people to back
him, and he must choose whether he will car
ry on the war for the purpose Of carrying out
the partizan views Of any political party, or
whether he will prosecute this war as a ma.
tionaI endeavOr to maintain the existence Of
the union and the constitution. Upon this
choice depends the future success OF the war,
and probably the existence Of the government
Once convert the war into a mere engine of
party propagan lism, and there will at once
be organized strong and powerful party
against not only the president, but against
the war
The further prosecution Of the war, sue.
cessiully, with the north thus divided, would
be hopeless. 1t would dwndle into a mere
partizan conflict, leading to anarchy, misrule
and consequent national ruin.
