AT this moment we turn our eyes
rather to the political lh'n 10 military
struggle aud there is with us the snmc
difference Of opinion and Of sympathy
as regards your coming Presidential
election, that has been manifested in
connection with your cOntes: in the field
All those of my counrymen who have
wished vel 10 the rebellion, who have
hoped for the break up of your Union,
who have preferred TO see Southern
slave empire, rather than restored and

Mcclellan. All those who have depIo
red the calamilies which the leaders Of
secession have brought upon your couo-
try, who believe that slavery weakens
your power and furnishes your good
nsmo throughout the world and who re-
gard the restoration Of your Union as
thing to be desired anlpnyeJ for by all
good men, so far as can judge, are
heartily longing for the election Of Mr.
Lincoln, Every frisud Of your Union
probably in Europe, every speaker and
wilor who has sought TO do justice to
your cause since the war began, is now
hoping with intense anxiety that MI
Lincoln may be- placed al tho head of
YOUR Executive for another term. 1t is
not because they believe Mr. Lincoln TO
be visor or better than all men on your
continent, but they think they have OBJ
served in his career grand simplicity
Of purpose, and parnorism which knows
no change, ami which does not faItcr,-
To some Of his couairymed there may
appear 10 have been errors in his course.
