t. HORACE GREELEY, in his audacious and
revolutionary letter to the President, takes the
President TO task because be did not, in his inau-
gural address. threaten the rebellion with negro
emancipation The coolness OF this censure will
be in some sort appreciated. when it is called to
mind, that, only little more than a month be.
fore the Presidents Inaugural address was deiv-
cred, Nh. HoRAcE GREELEY delivered himself,
through the columns of the New York Tribune,
thus:
If the Cotton States shall become satisfied
that they can do better out of the Union than i'm
IL, we insist on letting them 20 in peace. The
right 20 secede may be revolutionary one. but it
exists, nevertheless. We must ever
resist the right of any State to remain in the
Union and nulliiy or defy the laws thereof To
withdraw from the Union Is quite another matter,
aud whenever considerable section OF cur Union
shall deliberately resolve to go out, shall re
sist all coercive measures designed to keep it in
We hope never to live IN Republic whereof ole
section Is pinned to another by bayonets."
Had the President followed Mr. Horace
Greeley's advice at the time, not a threat of ne
gro emancipation, but something like the forego-
ing secessionism would have animated the nau-
gural address. Horace Greeley, like Wendell
Phillips. from le43 to 1861. was a disunionist.' .
They and their associates had, during these
eighteen years conspred with British abolition
lists to break up the Union. Ii was their de
sign TO break il up peaceably, and it was not un-

duce. was begun, that the Union became toler
