The Opposition to LincoIu-A Revo.
lIclIOn Threatened.
Two Of Fremont's men are raising dust a
round Lincon's head in Yankeedom. The
Herald says:
Senator Wade, of Ohio, and Representative
Henry Winter Davis of Maryland, Chairman
of the Senate and House Committees on the
'Rebcllious States, have prepared and presented,
j" their official capacity, and representing. we
presume, ,thair respective committees, an indlct-
ment against Abraham Lincoln, the executive
head of the nation, and the nominee of his par
ty for another term OF Office, charging him with
arrogance, ignornnce usurpation, knaverv and
host OF other deadly sins, including that oc
hostility to the rights of humanity and to the
principles Of republican government. Nothing
that Valandghaln or the most venomous of
the Copperhead tribe ofpoliticians have uttered
in derogation of Mr.. Lincoln has approached, in
bitterness and force. the denunciations which
Messrs. Wade and Davis, shining lights of the
Republican party, have piled up in this mani
festo.
The ostensible motive for the address which
these gentlemen have seen fit to ISSUE to the
supporters Of the Government" is to show that
the design which tic President had in view in
not approving and signing the bill passed 10y
both Houses at the last session "to guarantee
to certain States, whose governments have
been usurped, republican government" while
lie. did not assume the responsibility Of vetoing
it, was that he night, by pursuing his own
plan of re-admitting rebel States on the pre-
Ial r,f,, 1n1,, Sc Al
inhabitants, hold i'll hands the control OF the
next Presidential election. The reasoning on
this point is bricf LIT frauglt with Significance
Here it is:
s"The President, by preventing this bill from
becoming a law, holds the electoral votcs,of the
rebel States at the dictation Of his personal am
bition.
"If those votes turn tho balance in lis favor,
is it to be supposed that his competitor, defeat
ed by such means, will acquiesce?
"lf the rebel majority assert their supremacy
in those States, and send votes which elect an
enemy of the government, will we not repel
hisclaims?
"And is not that civil war for the Presidency
inanguratcd by the votes ofrcbel States 2"
The President is.told in so many words, that
ifhe dare to carry ont the scheme foreshaGow-
ed his election Will be resisted, and civil war
for the Presidency ihauguratcd. Will not this
make him pause Will it not, at least make
the supporters Of the Government, to whom
that remarkable document is addressed, pause
ana consider whether it is wisc in any aspect
OF the case, to 60 through with the sham nomi-
nation made at Baltimore, and pcrsevcrc in an
attempt to impose upon the country for anoth-
or term Of four years chief magistrate who has
given such signal proofs Of his incompetcncv
in the first place. and whose plans for securing
a reelection are likely, in the second place, to.
lead to stch disastrous consequence.
