The Rebel Press on Wr. Linco1ns x q.
election.

From the Richmond Wing, Nov. IL.
Our information is next to positive that Lin
coin has been re elected. Few have doubted
from the first that this would be the result, and
fewer still will regret H. For ourselves, we feel
that the great cause for which we are struggling
has escaped real peril The policy of concilia-
ton. OF concession, and csjoery which McClel
Ian would have attempted was something more
to be dreaded than Lincoln's armies and nsvies.
There great reason 10 apprehend that such
policy would deceive. demorslize and divide the
South With Lincoln there l. fear of this;
our people will continue to stand as one man:
with him il is united South and divided
North. With Mcclellan il might have been
united North and divided South. in which
event all We have been striving for in this four
years struggle would have been lost But Lin
coin is 10 continue TO be the master OF the Yam
KEGS, aud the spectre of reconstruction vanishss
forever.
From the Richmond Enquirer, November H.
Lincoln has been reelected President of the
United States His first election could not sur
prise anv one for he was wholly unknown; but
his reelection, after four years experience of his
character and capacity. will not fail to impress
the world with a verv low opinion of popular
government So far as the people of these States
are interested. the re election of Lincoln ia en-
tirely satisfactory. For Us he is the right man
IN the right place. we NOuiu not nave nau MN
defeated. but gave all the influence OF the En-
quirer him Our reasons were entirely sell
hsh We prefer the management of this war TO
remain in the same hands that have directed il
for the last tour years. We prefer ignorant
brutal fool as commander in-chief of the enemy
10 any other man
Gen. Mcclellan might have given more
trouble. but We have taken the measure of Lin
coin. and know exactly his entire wcrthles-ness
The four years more OF war, which his election
now makes sure. would not have been avoided
BY the election of Mcclellan. but might have
been conducted with much more ability and given
"a more trouble than Lincoln can possibly com
maDd. The reelection of Lincoln binds our
people still frmer together. and prevents the
discussion and dlscord which the election OF Ne
Ciellsn might have introduced. We know thar

and il j. better for US that should know
clearly the purpose of the enemy in this matter
than to have been divided by the hopes of peace
which the defeat OF Lincoln would have raised
