" Fernando Wood.

THIS gentleman whs has been known at the
South in former years az a Democratic politician
Of New York city, haa ju.tly distinguished HIM
self moro recently as \ man Of remarkable bold
ness and neral courage BY a fair and fearless, dis
.cussion Of the present relations between the gov
srnments and people Of the two sections of the
country. Mr.. WooD he, fully ana most fearless'y
committed himself against tho present Federal
Administr atm, and the further prosecution Of
the war. On the 7:h Of April, a vast audience
assembled ut tho Cooper Institute, New York
City, to inaugurate formally, s political party,
solely and professedly for peace peacs by reunion,
Il Tho Confederate States will upon any terms
ro-unitc with that people who have wasted and
dosol.ted our land; and If not, then peace aayho,O,
upon the basis Of two independent governments.
Dir. Woop was tho principal speaker, and right
ably and powerfully did no represent his party:
The speech has appeared in some Of our public
prints and our purpose il now simply 10 notice
scns Of the more noteworthy points made BY Mr..
woop. The speaker was very honest and very
fair in stating tbs full strength of the war party
at the North. This psrty, 81 shown by him, is
composed " various classes and various interests,
all Of whom, and all of which, are prompted, e1-
cvpting the abolitionistS proper, by the single mo-
two of money. Contractors, employers, manu-
facturers for Government, banks and bank officers,
stockholders and stockholders, railroads, their
officers, shareholders and creditors, the debtor
elias, of the communicative want to keep money
plenty, and &c. out before the erash-the President,
cabinet and ofhee-holders-all these desired the
prolongation of the war, and not it's termination
ON any account, or any terms, because very large
disbursements Of Government credit would enable
them to make large gains; whereas o termination
of the war would either curtail their profits, for
foit their occupations, or involve them in the COM
mon financial ruin, which seems inevitable in any
event More than twelve hundred thousand men,
not in the army, Dir. WOOD afirms, are thus bribsd
by tho government, and for government, to clamor
for the prosecution of the wal. Tho President
and cabinet, he further suggests, desire tho con-
t~inuance Of tho war in order to WELD o power
which will secure tbsm in powor for a time-or
for life, il they dare to try il.
In addition 20 this corrupt horde, there are tho
rssl Abolitionists who hate tho South and her in
situations, and want. the whole people and proper
II Of the South annihilated.
Notwithstanding this formidable array Of num-
bers and Of influence, Mr.. WOOD brayely declares

Again, so late as the 3rd Of juno, Mr.. WOOD
has been tho principal speaker at another Sucn

with these speeches Of Mr.. WOOD. He isnow the
leader of the party at the North, which aims at
peace, either with, or .Oithode reconstruction or
reunion. This language ~ Ineligible. There
is no mistaking the purpose Of this party.
We can most efectually aid Mr.. WoOD' and the
