in the first quoted extract. For the maj
ornament of the picture, the Southern
States are depicted as rushing off in q passion
with the result of an election which they had
plotted TO bring about, and the iore-ordalned
issue of which they did not wait to learn before
calling Secession Conventions.
The article proceeds TO say that Secession new

star, had the Republican party and PRESIDENT
chosen to deny their purpose to interfere with
the domestic institutions" of the South but

And ,ha, is the platform which the readers
Of this CyclopadA are asked TO believe the Adj
ADMINISTRATION .nd the Republican party, "hold-
ing the sword and the pure Of the nation N
their hands. stand upon-thc platform oi Dis
union. immed ate and complete. The writer
knows well ,ha, Dsunion is not to-day and has
not been since the beginning Of the war, the
platform even Of the Garrisonans, yet he
charges Il here on tbs whole Republican party
and On the President himself.
With such an example OF It's decorum and
fairness we dismiss this article. Its
whole purpose and tendency are to i'll
culeate dsloyAlty TO the Government, and to
prepare the public mind for peace on the
basis of recognition Of the independence oil the
Rebel Conicdcracy. Nor does 1t stand
alone. The reader will find articles on the
"Congrcss, L. S." On Army operations" on
"Slaycs"-the only title under which negroes
are discussed at all-and on other not less im-
poraul topics all pcTaded by spirit and de-
fled by imudulcn; statements similar to those
We have exposed above. In the heat OF politi-
cal dispute they would be disgracciul and they
surely are not To be tolerated III II work which
above all Others ought to be free from partisan
| temper.
