We are very far from charging that all who sup
port the reelection Of Mr. Lincoln do so in the
expectation that he will be governed by the advice
and influenced by the "pressure" of this Gree
ley faction" to which, as we'll from principle as
from personal inclination, he is known to be op-
posed. And when we see men as divergent in their
views as the Hon. Montgomery Blair and Wen
dell Phillips practically united in support of the
same Presidential candidate, it would be very un-
just in us to charge either with sharing the views
OF the other because Of the political fellowship
into which they are brought by the stress Of
party canvass or by the drift of events, modifying
their actonsif not changing their opinions. What
the ex. Postmaster General thinks of the Gwen.
dell Phillips junto" is no secret to any body who
recalls the speech he made some months ago in
New Hampshire. In that speech Mr.. Blair said !:

willingly break it 10 the middle and demoish to make

DIsAproiNTEn. The Lane papers are
sadly disappointsd-they are indignant
The Chicago Convention is over. and yet
none Of the Anti.Lane papers in Kansas
have hoistsd the names Of it's nominees,
as Lane and bis organs predicted and
hoped they would. They still persist in
supporting Old Abe. The Laneites would
be exceedingly rejoiced if every opponent
of that corrupt dsmagogus would oppose
Lincoln-they have been doing their best
to drive all such from his support. But
they have had very poor luck, so fer.
Now they are getting wrothy over it. II
matters run along as at present, Old Abe
will soon begin to discover what every
one else bias who has ever had dealings
with the creature-thst Lane is Q con-
summste liar-that be does not control
Kansas for Lincoln, but that the true
friends of the Administration are those
who oppose Lane. and who will this Fsl

discovers this. up slips the patronag'
which Lane has managed to secure. under
false pretences. to buy himself re-elec
