A New Corn WITH Mr.. LIScoLS's

dent of the New York WorM says;

like all parrsaus, carefully avoiding
everything which can call to mind his
humble origin, and that he is fast
adopting the habits and customs of

wheel car bui,. expressly for his use
at the enormous cost Of eighty thou
sand dollars "A sum almost equal to
his four years salary. This is, how
ever, nothing compared with the now
contrivance tried by some of his friends,
for the purpose of raising him above
his present station, and of making
him stand on a level with the crowned
heads Of Europe. They are now test
ing the power Of endurance of TIE
American people by circulating coin
of the value of cent, bearing on its
fact the portrait of Mr.. Lincoln with
these words around it. Pro gratia Del
ct Popuh, Lincoln. "By the grace Of
God and of the People, Lincoln, Pres

verse is exactly similar to that of the
common cents now in circulation

archy marks the immense distance
which separates us from the past.

The above extracts are in no sense
Of the term, garbled, every paragraph
complete and those published give
the gist of the whole matter. How
ever respectable the associations of
Mr.. briggs may have been in the

if their principles had prevailed, no
foreigner, however intelligent the date
of whose arrival in this country was
later than the date Of this address,
were he a resident Of this district,
would have the privilege of voting
either for or against the illustrious in

to his testimony concerning the Hon.

-"we read it in book published
Aug. 81, 1868, entitled Letter
from James Birney to Hon. John +.

fully, JAMES BIRNEY," from which we
infer that it was respectful as we'll
as respectable emanation from the
brain of the gentleman so well posted
in the political history Of the times
and capable of usuing scuh convinc-
ing style of argument" if it is not
so pleasant. We quote from the
"book" pages 6 and Z.
"Ihad still another reason why / did
not feel eager to enlist actively in your
canvass, and it is a reason entirely sat-
isfactory to myself. 1t is one that /
state without hesitation, and without
circumlocution, to you, directly. /
state it fairly, squarely and plumply,
and not as former competitor, but
as present constituent. / knew that
your nomination uds one emiuently unfit
to be made. 1 had been q member of
the Legislature at the same time with
yourself. l had full opportunity to
scan your course, and to form my own
judgment as to your qualifications as
a legislator. Your Legislative course,
instead of being an advantage to north
ern Michigan, was absolutely an i'm
pediment to favorable legislation. 1t
was an entire failure. When you
were nominated for Congress, l re-
garded you just as competent to dem
onstrate the status" of the country,
or even to explain the "Chicago Plat
form," as to expound the properties of
the Parabola, the Ellipsc, or the
Quadrature Of the Hyperbola Of
Comic Sections. i am not denying to
you talent, and many estimable quail
tiles of head and heart, that attract
friends to you; but whatever your tall
ents may be, they certainly do not lie
in the line of legislation. And, singu-
lar as it may seem, L have never heard
q man say that your nomination was
fit to be made. Even your friends do
not claim this for you. In the Con-
vention, paradoxical as it may appear,
your weakness was your strength
And had scrutinized you enough to
know that you had not one particle
either Of that moral or personal cour-
age absolutely requisite in the atmos-
phere Of Washington"

Truth from an Administrative n Organ

Truth from an Administrative n Organ
From the Washington Chronicle, Sept. 1864
j. w Forney, editor.
"Whatever may be said of that por-
ton of the resolutions Of the Chicago
Convention which criticises the federal
administration, every patriot must be
rejoiced to see that important body,
representing so large a portion of the
American people, solemnly declare that
the Union must DO preserved Mark the
words in which the determination is
expressed: ''we will adhere with un-
swerving fidelity to the Union and the
Constitution as the only solid founda-
ton to our strength, security and hap
piness as people, and as the frame
work of government equally conclu-
sive to the welfare of all the States,
both northern and southern. This er-
preston is probably the most significant
ddmonition that could be presented TO the
enemies in arms against the Republic.
These enemies have looked to the
Democratic party and to the Chicago
Convention for encouragement in their
expectation for separation and disun-
ion. They have been flattered by the
idea that because Mr.. Valandigham,
Mr.. FERNANDO Wood and few others
have preached peace doctrines, there
fore this preaching meant dissolution,
or in other words southern indepen-
dence. The resolutions Of the Chicago
Convention hare taken this last prop from
mdcr their feet, and they now see that there
is no pprty so contemplate IN the free
states as that mhieh advocates peace on the
basis Of separation, and that all parties an
our section arc in faror Of the unity Of III
Republic. So significant has been the ae-
ton Of tho Chicago tOnrention on this sub
Jeet, that when Mr. Long Of Ohio proposed
to introduce qualifying resolution looking
TO peace, he wds ruled oft Of order, and the
resolutions as reported by Mr. Guthrie
cus adopted, (as the report says) 'c'h fs'o
dissenting roiess. This being the case,
the query to the patriotic, intelligent
mind is, which of the two candidates,
Abraham Lincoln or George b. Nc
Clellan can best save the Government"

NEws.--All quiet in Sheridan's army
since the last victory. Important
preparations for important movements
soon to be made, going on in Grants
army. The situation in the South
west is claimed on both sides to be
favorable. The latest telegram says !:
fisherman is at Galysville, near Coosa
"River, pressing Hood, who is re-
treating towards Gadsen. Hood
evil be compelled either to move
"north to Tennessee River, or south
I" to jacksonville"
The prospect for the heaviest draft
of the war Immediately after election,
without any of the ameliorating con-
ditions of notice or substitution is
/" flattering" to those who take it in
that light. The last draft has pretty
much proved failure, and very
expensive one at that, and more men
must be had to keep our armies up to
the present standard. The govern
ment does not seem to banker after
that class of men who generally 60
as substitutes, and looks to vigorous
CONSUMPTION, as the only means of fill
ling the ranks.

JUDGE BIRNEY.


We are gratifed in being able to announce that
Judge Birney has taken tho field rs a speaker,

support Of the Union causo. Judge Birey Is
well posted In the political and military history
Of the times, and, with his con, incing style OF
argument, is able TO do good service in the cause

We are also "gratifed in being able
to announce that Judge Birney has
taken the field" as speaker, and par
ticularly with this cordial endorsement

LIST. He is an undisguised abolition
list, an earnest supporter of the prin-
ciples of his father, James G. Birney,
who said in 1915: 81 have no idola-
"trous veneration for the Union, if
slavery could not be abolished with
'out the dissolution Of the Union, 1,
for one, would go for dissolution"
Judge Birney delights in tracing the
successful course Of the abolition,
disunion party from its small begin
ming in 1910 to its final triumph in
the election of Abe Lincoln in 1860.
He said, and said truly, in a letter to
Moses b. Hopkins of Grand Haven
in juno last:
"History, however, will establish it
cas- II fact beyond controversy, that
"the seven thousand votes cast in
"1S40, and the sixty thousand cast in
1854 for James G. Birney, was but
the beginning of the triumph that
"was achieved in 1860"
I'd. His convincing style Of argu-
ment" is unquestionably Of q style
calculated to convince all conservative
men, that, judging from the disastrous
experience of the past four years in
cedent to the rule Of the party Of
which he claims the Hon. James G.
Birney to have been the head, there
is no salvation for the country in tho
direction indicated by their bigoted,
fanatical and ruinous policy.

being able to announce that Judge
Birney comes before the public with
this hearty endorsement Of the Enter

The MAnrIssp Cossrrrurros-It i,

The MARYLaND CoSsTIruTroS.-It is
conceded on oil hands that tho new
Constitution Of Maryland was rejected
of the polls by the people. 1t seems,
however, that the Convention made
provision for taking the votes of SOL
diers in camps, and it is claimed by
Lincoln that this soldiers vote over
comes the popular vote and secures
the adoption of the Constitution. -
But Maryland never had any law per-
hitting voting anywhere except at the
polls, and therefore it is believed that
Gov. Bradford will reject the soldiers
vote, or if no should not, that the Su-
preme Court will certainly DO So
Thus the matter stands at present
