of his inherent and abject cswardice,

called on him, and in order to draw him
out, pretended to agree to all he said. He

The Rum0red Defamation Of
~ Ahrnhnm lincoln.

We have rumors. from various direc-
tons. that LINCOLN will decline the can
didacy, leaving the nominee to be made
by new Convention What amount OF
credence to give to the report, we are
unable to say. But OF one fact, we are
fully satisfied. 1t is the universal desire
Of his party that he should stand aside.
We say universal for the tools he holds
in Office desire some man whom they will
have a chance OF electing, and LINCOLN,
they know will be defeated. While the
masses, the rank and file Of the party,
weary Of war. sick of the monstrous ex-
actions which LINCOLN makes of their
blood and treasure. disgusted with his
niggerism. his usurpations, and with his
conduct generally, public and private,
heartily desire to have him hidden from
public view, consigned. it possible, to
obscurity, so that it may pass from the
memory of men, that they ever voted for
him, or were responsible for his Admins
tration. As Tor LISooLs himself we feel
entirely satisfied, that nothing short of a
necessity" more imperious than any
which has existed since the war began, will
compel him to decline Where will he
go? What community will receive him +?
How can he live in a conntry which he
has so cruelty betrayed and ruined, if once
he is deprived Of the "body. guard, and
the million of bayonets which are now at
his disposal These are questions which
must hourly occur to him. and for which
he can furnish no answer satisfactory to
himself We incline to the belief that he
will be pushed of the track, and allowed
to save himself as best he may.
