&S-1t is said that Fremont's letter of &C.
ceptance was submitted to member of the
democratic National Committee" before
1t was sent, and modified, at that members
suggestion, in several important particu-
lars! Straws show which way the wind
blows. How do men, who think they are
Radicals" fancy the idea of their nomi-
nee's consulting with the leaders Of the
Copperheads? Is not that queer feature
Of radicalism? Is that the sort Of anton
the Radical Democracy are seeking.

THE HAWK-EYE


Wednesday,, June Is.
~ The Chicago Times says that "ail
those who are in favor Of the country going
up will support Lincoln" The Times does
not propose to Support Lincoln. VI
course it is seeking to haye the country go
dozen.
That is the exact distinction between a
patriot and traitor. A patriot desires
that the country should last; that it should
dig itself deeper and stronger foundations !;
that it should build thereon q broader and
2rander fabric; that it should continue to
20 up. to achieves higher andanobler fame
until time shall end. The traitor seeks to
sap the existing structure; he would de-
stroy what good we have; he strives to
make the Nation o wreck and desolation !;
he wants it to 60 d0sra, and forever. That
is just the difference. Between the Pre-
server and the Destroyer men have to
choose. Up or dowm-which shall it be?
That is the issue the people have to decide.
Yes, those who wish the country to go up,
always up. will support Lincoln. Those
wish it to go down will follow the Times to
perdition.
@-The papers say that the Pittsburg
Sanitary Fair has produced quarter
of q million dollars for it's humane
objects. Well done, Pittsburg. In pro-
portion to population, that, we think, is the
largest offering yet made for the relief of
our sick and wounded soldiers. How we
ought to thank the ladies of Chicago who
set thot ball in motion! They were the
pioneers in the noble work. They mar
shalled the way. If other cities have i'm
proved upon their example, it was because
the first tribute made greater ones easier.
Philadelphia is yet to be heard FROM
It will not be astonishing if the fruits reap
ed there prove richer and more abundant
than those Of any preceding harvest. We
hope so. There is need of all. The more
there is contributed the more abundantly
can suffering patriots be supplied.
~Tne kentucky delegation to the Bal
timore Convention consisted of twenty-five
of the leading citizens of that State with
that ablest one of all, r. J. Breckenridge
at their head. Unitedly they are the own
ers of nine hundred slaves Yet they were
all in favor Of the extinction OF that institu-
ton, and emphatically endorsed the reso-
lutions adopted by the Convention. Is not
their conduct a nice comment upon that of
the men in the North who are so extreme
~ anxious that negro servitude shall be
forever perpetuated? Their position is not
that of the majority of Kentucky slave
holders, we admit. We wish it were.-
Their example is therefore the more con-
spicuous and honorable. But if such men
are in favor of wiping out the hideous
wrong, on what grounds can a Northern
freeman base defense and support of me-
gro-chattelism?
no 1sc1~

the Tines say to it when it learns what it
deemed impossible has already be realized?
It will be be somewhat more amazed,-we

In saving through the columns Of your
