From Nr. MClurc's relation and the unmis-
taxable construction which he give, H. il i az,
dent that the President stands substantially
anu hrmly by the position he assumed al the
outset. and In which he has been faithfully
supported by the Democratic and conservative
frSs~es Of the country. III i'm the future he
proves true 10 this position. no matter what
may be the course Of the Republican party,
or any portion of IL. the Democratic party. al
though IN the minority, will have achieved
Teat victory for itself and the country. If the
Republicans, m whole or in part. sustain the
President. IL will bee because Of a determine
ZION 10 cling 10 the side Of power without
much regard to principle, sooner than see that
power captured nv the Democracy purely ON
principle. III they do not sustain the Pre>i-
dent. the Democracy will step in and assume

the President. by the aid OF the Democratic
party, Is rendered master Of the situation.

out that support, he would be compelled TO
yield TO the pressure of the radicals--he would
be powerless TO carry forward his policy Of

The cmbarrassments Of the situation are
peculiar, and naturally grow out of the state
u things that follow the rebellion: and this
state OF things 10 which refer is especially
disclosed by the elections in both sections ~
