Friends.
Every rebel newspaper in the South
every Tory newspaper in England. every
tmperiel newspaper in France, express. es
g hope for the election OF MoCLELLAN
No Copperhesd new wspsper can deny tn i
fact. Every new mail brings q new exi.
bition of it.
Now. how is it that, Tories, Impsri
alsss ard Copperheads are in such extra
Cd mary accord on this point! What is
there tia. unites them all in such a
o pging that GEORGE. B. McCLELtAN
should d displace ABRAHAM LINCOLN?
Can it be "a desire for the strength ana
glory of our country! Do rebels favor
hlm because they want the Coniederacy
wiped out and the Union restored? d.
the privileged classes of England favor
h i'm because they want our Democratic
institutions to be secured an d strengthen
Ell? Do the supporters OF the French
Emperor favor him because they imagine
That the success of "the Model Republic
will commend the imperial system and
psrpesuste his dynasty?
These are questions that no supporter
Of McCLx.LAN dare undertake to answer
To say yes TO them, would be ridiculous
TO say anything else, would be to con
Tess that the election o! MCCLzLLAH pro
misses i'll, aud not good, to the country.
The bare statement of tho fact, thai
tll the elements hostile to tha Union, in
the South aud in Europe, are united for
McCLkLLANs is in itself conclusive rea-
son "hy no friend Of the Union should
support him. 1t tells the whole storls
The at.rsct!on to MCCLELLAN is an e,lI
attraction. Bad men don't rally to a
righteous lead. The wolves didn't make
he sheep their captain; or if they did, III
was only to impose Upon the simple, and
get better chance at the fold. ..-.
1t is needless to discuss McCLELLAs.
Lev HIM be what he may, his having such
rebel sympathizing followers at once con
Iemns HIM. Imagine him ever SO good
a Uuion m n, it don't make him fl toI
be trnsted. Some Of his friends say, to
the prejudice Of his sincerity, that pri-
vaely he don't aeree with the Chicago
platform. 1t may be so. But his private
agreement or disagreement has nothingI
practically to do with his line of action
a the head of his party.
The sheep at the head of the wolves
must do wolves work. It's getting there
may have come from an innocent sillness;
hut once there, it cannot help itssel i.
The position dominates. Tie single will
is nothirg against the general disposition
and the settled po icy. FERNANDO WooB
has right to say, with all emphasis in
his speech at Tammany Hall: "GEN. Nc
CLELLAN will be our agent and the crea
ture of our will" VALLANDINaHAN bu
told the plain truth in his Sydney speech
when de said that the Chicago platform
;, should be the accepted enunciation Of
Democratic doctrines for the next four
years." aud declared unquali6edly tha'
Twill abide by its princl
ples.''
That which unites rebels, tories. impe
rialists With the rsnkest Copperheads SO
unanim 'usly upon the Chicago homiuee,
cannot be any particular concern for him
personally. Tbeir fervor can be due to
nothing else than to liking for the pol
ey of the party with which he is iden.
flied. They believe that policy adverse
o the Union, and, on that score only,
rive him their support. Are these men
Can il be that the keenest in
