David Dudley Field and his 100000 OF

we're obtained by the philosopher Of the

Mississippi. OF his political differences with
Greeley, Mr.. W. says:
have differed widely with Mr.. Greeley
IN public questions. do not believe AS he
did. that the framework Of society could be
re-organizcd under Fourcrism, nor has it
been. did not believe that maine Laws
could be enforced. and the effort has signal
y failed. did not unite with him in i..-
viting Secession States to withdraw from
the Union. | did not agree with him and
M. Chase in their policy Of driving tn.
.;oricr States out Of the MON. Nor do !
believe that their war policy is calculated
70 preserve the government or restore the
Union.
The party which has thus. ACCORDING to
Thuriow Weeds testimony, "driven the
Border States out Of The Union," and forced
upon the country policy that has brought
us to the doors Of destruction, has at the
same time relaxed not moment in the work
Of cnriching itself at the public expense.
