AL 10 Mr.. Lincoln and his shoddy politicians.
lie is released. substantially. they say, IN
order to work an indirect advantage to the
same class, now desperately struggling tor
a new lease Of power.
They care not that the law was violated,
the Constitution defilcd, truth and justice
set aside, and the usages a political wassase
betrayed, BY the original wrong, or that
millions Of people were cmbittcrcd towards
Il bv the Administration in this hour Of
conflict Politicsl capital, the spoils Of pc.
litioal victory, the renewed opportunities o.
fr,ud upon Tire treasury and Of pillagc oil the
reonle are all that they see in the act and
these things are all they look for in his re-
turn.
They are shameless in their ayowal OF It.
There is no class Of politicians who will
receive the news Of Mr.. vallandigham' S
movements with such d;smay as those who
are hoping TO organize formidable party IN
Chicago. The presence Of that individuai
| in the Chicago convention. and the idens,ii'
cation Of that body with him. would be
about the most damaging thing that could
happen the party or aggregation OF factions
to he represented there. Mr.. Nal.andigham
Is a d;sorganizcr. and while it may be doubt
full whether he Is capable Of doing his coun-
try serious damage by the advocacy OF his
traitcrous doctrines, It's quite certain that
he can do his party more mischief than car
be inflicted BY any other man, and in tins
way. if in no other. he can do his country
some service"
The Albany HnicIsrJocksr says:
RyTrgxrxG TO PLAGuE.--If we are to Judge
from Valandighaln's late speech, the Ad
ministraiiop have let him loose TO plague hit
Democratic friends. 7'his is sharp practice
| The Atlns and Argue, and other aiders anC
abcttors of jeff. Davis, do not seem to relish
the liberation Of Vallandigham.
| The Ertniny journal is not less distinc
in its ou'xiyings:
| 1.-The return o: yallandigham is ssasona

him delegate to Chicago, and will perhaps
nominate him for President At sny rate
BY afiiliating with him. they betray thei
coppcrhcad proclivities, and riU use up thei
ticket"
We have before published, but repeat tn
declarations of the New York Tribune:
"Mr. c. L. vallandigham has returned
from Dixie, ria Canada, to Ohio, and becl
chosen delegate to the Chicago convention
| We regret to see some administration jour
nails urge his re arrest and rebanishmcnt
We hope not. lie is blind partisan Of Nc

Can't we get him on the coppcrhead tickc

These desperate politicians libel Vallan
digham by associating his name with thei
designs. so as to make him, if not an accom-
piice to them, an instrunsnt for their use
They libel still worse the popular masses
when they represent them as ready to be tn
sport Of receptions like these, and Of tn
gross intrigucs Of designing men.
