THE PRESIDENT, AND THE BoK-
DER STATES CONGRESSMEN

The Washington correspondents state that
President Lincoln called the Congressman
from the Border States to the White House,
on the 10Th, and read to them paper,
appealing to them to adopt his gradual
emancipation policy, affirming that II 1t
had been adopted by the Border States the
war would now be well nigh ended, alludIng
to Gen. Hunters proclamation and other
signs of the times, and giving them sort
of last warning.
In the evening stormy meeting was hell
by tie Border State men. and a committee
appointed to report on the whole subject
The Tribune's correspondent says:
On the whole the meeting was, as we un-
derstand, more satisfactory than was anti
cipated by the President or by the more at-
vanced members from the Slave States. AZ
least half of the Representatives ara believed
to be in favor OF the Presidents plan from
Delaware. Mr.. Fisher from Maryland
Messrs. Webster ami Leary, and Mr.. Cris-
| field at heart, although being large slave
| h ,lder, he i sand tO feel deiiclcy IN sup
porting a measure which sIll pay him NOR
Tor his slaves than they are worth IN thes'
times.
Mes,rs. May, Thomas aud Calvert are t.
tally opposed To emancipation From Nr
GINA, Messrs. Brown, Blair. and Whaley
favor the project, and Mr.. SeglI : views az
not known with certainty. From Ken
lucky, Mr.. Casey is the only Representative
known t. favor the Presidents plan. Mr.
Crittenden Is wagering Mcssrs. jackson
Order, Harding, Wickliife. Dunlap, Nal
lory, WaGswortn, and Mcnzies are against
From Tennessee, Alessrs. Clements and May
nard are for emancipation. From Missouri
Messrs. Blair, RJllins, and NOEL are for, an.
Phelps and Norton are against the Presi
dents plan.
Thus, ii we are rightly informed, thIrteei
members OF the Lower House are for. an
thirteen are against, accepting the oiiy
branch of freedom rendered by the Pres
dent. and two Others are doubtful. OF tn
eleven Senators from the Border states, Sen
atoIs Henderson and Wiley, and possibl
Garrett Davis. alone, are likely to vote 70
bill embodying the Presidents scheme
Senator Andy johnson would vote for
he were here.
The others are hopeless.

GIN. MCCLELLAN CAUTIoN.-There has
been no great battle fought this week, no
great military movement made, 50 far as we
know, and hence We must class these last
seven days in the list Of dull weeks. There
has, however, been vigorous war waged. the
friends and apologists OF the administration

1t was failure. and great iaASre, too. a
failure to take Richmond - upon Gen.
Mcclellan, while the General friends retOrt
that the failure is owing 10 the misconduct
Of the administration. II we were compelled

conf CT, we should enlist under the Generals
banner. lie Is not laultlesS man, and his
chlel fault Is a deficiency ~ moral courage.
lie would charge a Datt,ry, or lead a caval-
~ column against infantry, with as much
bravery as any man that ever lived or died.
lie would have ridden iutO - the valley of
death as calamity and cIrelessly as Lord
Cardigan himself rode into 1t. Blu. he has
great fear OF responsibility. His mind Is
keen, inquisitiye, and many sided, and the
result OF all his thinking Is, that he sees 50
many evils that would follow from defeat,
that he never dares to strike for victory, I'M
les so sure Of winning 1t, that with him and
could be no such thing as failing. Months
ago We were told that President Lincoln
said, " Mcclellan Is 50 afraid of doing some
thing wrong, that he will do nothing right"
and these words probably convey a very Just
idea OF the moral character of the brave
Of the Army Of the Potomac,
who Is US cautious and forbearing as was
Count Daun, soldier whom IN some striking
respects he much resembles. But IT the
President had known men we'll, and been
with the history of war, h. would
have seen that in the very character OF Gen.
Mcclellan there existed the elements of the
greatest victory that could be gained on this
ointment He would have sent him into the |
