are sorry to see intemperance in place of

of calm deliberation.
The Radical Abolition View or the Free
stdent's Ema mancipattOn Message.
We were right. The radical abolitionists
can nnd nothing to admire, but everything to
denounce, in President Lincoln's late emanci-
patton message. Lloyd Garrison through his
Boston L'berdtor, very fatty speaks out his
mind upon tho subject, in behalf of the whole
abolition fraternity. Upon half dozen spe-
cifcations in this matter he arraigns the Presi-
dent, examines him, and condemns him, in very
short metre.
First, the style of the message CRATES harshly
upon the dainty ear of Garrison, and he calls
upon the Cabinet to "help the President to
mend his phraseology." Let the Cabinet take
heed. Secondly, we are told that the resolu-
ton proposed by the President "gives no reason
for such an anomalous overture to the slave
Statss;" says nothing about any special
sxigency rendering the measure necessary or
eKpedient," and that "upon the face of it it has
no relation to the war;" is "without limita-
tion," and In all these particulars "is radi
cally detective" mo relation to the war;"
Garrison is very wide of the mark. The whole
argument of the Message is directed to this
scheme of voluntary and compensated emanci-
patton in the border slave States, as measure
for the speedy suffocation of the rebellion in the
cotton States; and Mr.. Lincolns views upon
the subject are so very consistent and con-
vincing that we cannot avoid the suspicion OF
deliberate perversion of them by Garrison.
Third, 'it Qhe Message) offers bounty
to all the States that are in Confederate
rebellion against the government" but
"treason is not q purchaseable or negO-
table article, and traitors are not to be
allowed to make terms, with profit to
themselves, by the government they are seek
ing to overturn." So says Garrison. But the OK
perience of every nation, past or present, is
against him in its concessions for the sake OF
domestic peace and harmony. Doubtless he
would prefer the bloody determination OF all
persons in the South committed in any way to
this rebellion, except the slaves, and would
have them elevated to the exclusive possession
and political control of our Southern States,
upon the abolition basis of "human equality"
In the fourth place and in the fifth. Mr.. Lin
coins "gradusl abolishment" does not suit our
Boston high priest Of abolition. He will be salts
fed with nothing short of immediate emanci-
patton" be the consequences what they may.
ST. Domingo is all the answer that is needed
upon this point. Garrison may prate from
morning till night that ''the President is at war
with common sense, sound reason, the teachings
of history, the instincts and aspirations OF hu-
man nature, the laws of political economy. and
the uniform results of emancipation" but still
the tree will be judged by its fruit Of the
fruits of Boston abolitionism we have had
enough, in the ferocious and bloodthirsty dis
union demagogues and fanatics, and in the silly
and disgusting long-haired men in petticoats
and strong-minded women in breeches, with,
which the country is infested.
Lastly, the outspoken Garrison DEGREES that
''the President, as we'll as Congress, in conse-
quence Of this slaveholders' rebellion, and the
dire extremity into which it has brought the
nation, has now the constitutional right, power
and opportunity to proclaim liberty through
Out HI Tic lduu, duU w oAA skAO AAA0OAs"A0
thereof" and that "neither the President nor
Congress must be allowed to evade this solemn
duty by any dodge of this kind"-(meaning this
emancipation Message). Here we have the
whole case in a nutshell. In the outset Of this
rebellion the abolition war cry was, "emanci-
patton or separation" and the radicals of tho
republican party, headed by the New York 1ri-
bune advocated separation" and simply be-
cause they believed it to be the cheapest and
shortest way to emancipation. "No union with
shareholders" is still the motto faunted at the
head of the Boston Liberator's editorial matter;
but now, with the backbone Of this rebellion
broken, the abolition alternative of separation
is abandoned, in view of the opportunity and
the power to enforce emancipation by convert
ing this war into an armed crusade for the ex-
tirpation of slavery.
Of course, then, the Presidents emancipa-
ton message is secuted and "execrated and
spit upon" by our abolition disorganizers, and
they command him and Congress to proclaim
liberty throughout all the land and to all the in
habitants thereof" or to take the consequences.
This is the issue between our disunion abolition
faction and the administration. We stand by
the President we are in for the war, and we
expect that the end of it will be the burial OF
secession and radical abolitionism in the same
grave.
