PRES % ENT.

1ne e1Tnllc Nen0eu f1ulns mas made
raid upon Abraham Lincoln. It is easy to
zee his motive. MIR. Phillips Is a glib, not
very profound, bnt exceedingly coucsited
wordmonger. He ptldes himself on agree
Ing with nobody, and being satisfied with
nothing. He has every kind Of ability except
practicabuity, and has therefore gone into
business with Horatio Seymour as common
scold Of the acts and plans Of wiser men.
It has been his hobby for life to become the
emancipator Of America. He has been toll
Ing for that tame. ae wholly failed until
the opening Of the rebellion to bring more
than six or seven thousand persons, all told,
to his views, and he remained the head of an
insignificant sect rather than the founder of
party, or even faction. At best he was
but the foreruuner OF the movement. But
VIXEN the Southern rebels bY rebell!og in the
Interests Of slavery, placed the whole elayery
question on q new au3 different foottar. Mr.
Phillips suddenly found the .ehole business
Wresttd from decletmer and placed in the
haI:ds of statesmen End Generals, The
ensnctpator Of American slavery, whose
name was destiIed to be handed down to Dos
te1tty in connection with great event, was
found not to be Wendell Phillips, but the
nutbor the Emancipation Proclamation.
