nor q sneak If no does nothing toward throt-
Ting the Rebellion or ito authors, he makes no
pretense of doing anything. Whether as a
novelist, an orator, or legislator he never
makes a parade Of abusing Abolltlonists aud
Secessionists together. He believes In Slavery
that is, he believes it bis iateress to uphold
Slavery-and he does it manfully, by openly
giving all possible aid and comfort to the Sc
cessicnists. That he would like to hang
Charles Sumner he does not conceal; but no
makes no pretense of wishing to subject the
Hon. Jefferson Davis to like lgnoble
fate. His way Of backing his friends
is more manly and honest than that'
lie prints a speech which he did not exactly
make in the House, but which we will war
rant he paid good money for writing, wherein
no argues squarely and thoroughly that the
Rebels cannot be put down, and ought not to
be put down. He openly renders them oil the
aid and comfort that his liberal means will
command. And We rejoice that the great Dis
union oracle over the water-1hc TmeS-has
printed and gloriied that speech as one of the
wisest and best ever made in Congres'-one
which proves it, utterer d statesman and PHI
losopher-One in which, SAYS The 1tmeS, 1--WE
RECOGNIZE THE VOICE or A GREAT POLITICAL
PARTY "-namey. the Democratic Pfo-Slavery
party of the Free States. Ben. has fairly
earned this praise, aud We will not detracl
from it ono lOta.
But We are not so well satisfied with the
kindred performance of brother Fernando at
his recent great meeting. Fernando every one
knows, il the very same man he was when be
apolOgized to the traitor Gov. Blown OF Georgia
for the stoppage by our City Police of arms on
the way to Georgia whercwith to cut the
throats of Unionists, explaining that, if he had
any control over the Police, nothing Of the
Kind should be done. He is the very man he
was when he vetoed the action of the Com
mon Council whereby the CIty's heavy subsidy
was Withdrawn from the further support OF
Ben's openly Secession organ, The Da'ty Ncics.
He is the very man be was when George L.
Genet announced last Fail to the Convention
that re-noniinated him that his reelection as
Mayor. would be hailed with eIultation be-
yond the lines OF the Union armies" OF course.
we do not complain that he get. up meetings
here wherein 10 proclaim his desire to expel
by force from their places the constitutional
rulers and legislators Of the Nation il their
policy does not conform to his views. The man
feels just like that, aud if be had little more
courage and good deal more backing, he
would act ike it. When he ssys-as he did
say n; Cooper Institute on Tuesday evening.

rings hollow, aud you feel that tie man is
cheating and dccegiug. He feels no such
equal hatred Of the traitors in nrms to destroy
the Nation as of the patriots in arms to save
It. He may think the former were rather rash
and hasty; but he does not wish them crushed
out, annihilated, as he does wish the Abolition
ISIS. lie has ten words of opprobIum and exc
Grafton for the latter to one for the former,
aud the Abolitionists are abused with q hearth
mesa. an junction., which is utterly wanting III
the other case. We protest, therefore, against
tho suppression Of all the characteristic portions
of his speech in bis own organ; tor We desire
that country Democrats should realize the
animps of the City magnates of their party.
Ben. Wood frees his minT without assembling
or equyocation; but Fernando says enough to
convince any discerning reader that his heart
is thoroughly with those who for Savey's
sake are lighting desperately to undermine the
pillars Of the Republic and whelm it in one
common ruin.
