THE POLICY OF LIECoLN.

The following article from the Gin
cinnati Enquirer, one Of the ablest, at
the same time that it is one of the
most radical of the Democratic press,
is important as giving an inkling of
the sentiments of the extreme wing of
of the Democracy Of Ohio and the
Northwest. r,
Political speculation is now rife as
TO whether there will be any change
in the Cabinet of Mr. Lincoln after
the 4th of March, next and if so,
what members will so out and who
will come IMP VIII the present office
holders Throughout the country hold
on during Mr.. Lincoln's second term,
or will there be, generally, new deal?
These are questions moro especially
interesting to the supporters Of Lin
coin. AS TO his administrative policy,
will it he more radical or more co :
servative? 1t is wcll-known fact
that Lincoln has succeeded in spite Of
the radicals, who were opposed to his
nomination, and endeavored to force
him off the track after he was nomi-
mated. The radicals in Congress were
his most bitter enemies, and he knows
it. VIII he now forgive those
eleventh -hour-men, who were abso-
lntely forced into his support, and take
them into his closest confidence? Mr..
Lincoln is now master Of the political
situation. To certain extent, no
had TO yield to the demands of the ul-
tras and radicals in his own party !;
but he can now, being reelected, az
ford TO he Independent and carry out
lis own policy, if he has one. During
his first term he has been bullied and
threatened great dcal 10y the ultras,
who have frequently more than init
mated his deposition by force and vi
olence if he did not respond more
promptly TO their demands. They
cannot now apply the lash to Uncle
Abraham, unless he meekly consents
to receive it, for he is clothed with
complete arbitrary and irresponsible
power.
IIc has great difficulties in his path
aud not the least among them is thC
division Of sentiment among his own
supporters. Before his second tern
is over, lot hun pursue what course
he may, he will have TO encounter
tho bitter luminosity and hatred o
many who arc now his leading friends
Immense as his power is, there is ar
old proverb Uneasy is the head tina
wears n crown. lie has incurred vas
responsibilities. His friends hav,
made great promises to tho people
promises hard to redeem, and We
must DO redeemed if he would no
cause a genera disappointment. Tn
Constitution being thrown aside as {
piece Of vast paper, he has no land
mark now 20 guide him but his Owl
will. Ofprecedents in this countl.
he will find none. He may be oblige'
by force of circumstances TO chang
Ito policy he is now pursuing, for tn
profession Of candidates before cleo
ton are often very different from thei
c,aduct aftcrward.

The ESCAPE or rHE TaLLAuAssEE.-
1t appears the Tallahassee managed
to escape in the chase the other day.
Of the four Union steamers engaged
in the chase Of her on the 9TH inst.
the Montgomery and Lillian took the
lead, the former following her up
from ten O'Clock in the morning until
dark. The pursuit was unhagging
and most exciting, so near had they
got to her, that but a short time would
have elapsed before she would have
been their prey, when night set in
and she escaped in the darkness,

For the present and for rome time
to come, the pemocracy--who, al
though they are nearly two millions
strong, have no political representa-
tves in the Government--will have
nothing to do except TO perform well
their duty as citizens, and leave oil
tho responsibility of evil consequences
TO the country so the men in power
if the evil consequences ensue from
their measures. If, contrary TO our
belief, any good "comes out of Naz-

approve of it; for it is always much
mora rratifying Ia commend public

There is arparcnt since the election,
a disposition in all quMters &c canvass
the question Of peace in a spirit which
should it become general, may it is to
be hoped, lead to speedy and salts
factory solution Of the difficulties
which environ tho nation. When
,,.,...s.s.. - ssi,vnvd ~ suUsiue ana war
is regarded as it should be, rs bar
barous necessity TO the attainment of
lau,lable object rather than as a
means for the qualification of fanatical
and partizan hate, an all important
step IL taken in the course which leads
to reconciliation.
Says the N. Y, Etela,g Post, one of
tho most radical Of tho administration
organs, in a recent article commenting
upon the election of Lincoln. SIN or
"der 10 show that our aim is not war
"but peace, lot a., with every renewed
"efort Of our arms, stretch forthnew
"overtures Of reconstruction TO the
misguided multitudes of the South
"who arc following the ig''as .fat,'s of
secession into thicker darkness and
"decper boys of misery and ruin"
And other journals holding an in
fluential position in the party which
has drawn in the recent election the
prize Of this gigantic war with all its
attendant perils and responsibilities,
counsel moderation, conservatism, con-
citation. we confess that our hope
in this regard is slight, but tho same
giraffe course Of President Lincoln,
which has induced him to adopt pol
icy SO ntter'y. at variance with his
own siows Of right and justice, as ex-
pressed in the outset, may bring him
round to decent regard for the true
characteristics of the situation.
AS one of the rumors on the sub
ject of peace which simply goes to
show the direction in which mems
thoughts are tending at this time, we
give the following from recent tele-
gram:
The Express has tho following
There have been mysterious rumors
of peace lately On the street, and the
speech Of Gen. Butlor last evening is
regarded as very significant in some
quarters that there is something on
foot The movement of Sherman
army is supposed to have something
to do with it, and the story runs as
follows: Some time ago there was q
conclave in Macon of the leading men
of Georgia, including Gov. Brown
and Vice President Stephens, and an
ambassador was sent to Washington.
This gentleman was authorized to as
sure the President that Georgia would
sccede from the Confederacy if Sher-
man would march through Georgia
and take possession of Charleston and
Savannah. The response of Mr.. Lin
coin to this request about three weeks
since, was that ho was not quito rea'
dy, but would do it after election. II
is contended that this is the real secret
of Sherman's movements, and with
this, it was rumored on the streets this
=. NJ, that Augusta had been cap
turcd.

DEATH OF SAMUEL MEDARY.--Tho
death Of Samuel Medary, better
known to the people of Ohio as for
many years the editor of the Ohio
Statesman, was announced in yester-
days paper. Mr.. Medary served his
party with great zeal and vigor, and
earned the respect of his foes by the
energy of his warfare. lie was for a
long time one of the very foremost, if
not the foremost man of his party in
the State, and was known from his in
domitable qualities as ''the old wheel
horse" and in this capacity ho never
baked. He was a man whose native
powers were very considerable, as is
clear enough shownin the large inAu-
ence he exerted upon his fellow-citi-
zens, but he had not many early adj
vantages Of education. His editori-
als---and he wrote many thousands OF
them--were never polished literary
performances; there were often SEN
fences that would not bear close ex-
animation as 10 theirgramatical struc-
ture; but they were never lacking in
something of force, bearing tho marks
of a strong understanding, experience
in public affairs, and the resolute die
tates Of an unflinching will. He did
not shrink from saying the bitterest
things of his opponents, and did not
spare them personally, or take pains
to soften tho first harsh words in which
his displeasure found expression. So
in his long public life he has made
many enemies; but we believe it was
characteristic Of him to be rs quick to
forgive as to offend. In his domestic
and social relations he was generus
and kindly; the hoad Of an interesting
and amiable family, and as tender at
home as he was rugged elscwheo.- -

The NEW STATE, NEvADA.---The
boundaries Of this new State embrace
an area Of about $4,000 square miles,
or more than twice that of the State
of Ohio. Its location is west of Utah
and east of California, and it has a
white population of not less than 50,-
900. Those best acquainted with it
say that its mineral wealth, in gold
=, 4 silver alone, is sufficient to pay
tho !. rtire national debt Mining
forms tho most important feature in
the ipdustrio, activities of the ooun-
try. Carson Cit, is It's capital, and is
a beautiful village o. o,"Vo innabl,

the State is Virginia City, vl,.s a pop
ulation Of $4,000, and rapidly inc. 'eas-
ing. One hundred quartz mills ar
already in operation in the mining
regions. But limited portion of the
State is adapted to agricultural pur-
poses, large parts of its surface being
composed of sand hills and plains, in
terspersed with broken mountain
ridges. West from the base of tho
crest Of the Sierra Nevada range of
there are immense forests
of excellent timber, with streams
which afford ample water power for
tho manufacture of lumber. The
wealth of Nevada lies in its mines
and forests. 1t was Organized as o
Territory in 1861, but is noN one OF
the great States, of which we shall
soc many more carved out Of our al
most boundless territory.
