when the people will rise up even as
they did in France when they brought

der-State men go unexpectedly, aud
Mr. Lincoln cheats the people with his
representatives from military districts,
We shall be able to accomplish some
thing. But that Congress will not meet
until next December, and until that
time the government will be under the
control Of the Abolitienists. IL may be
that events will settle the question be-
fore that time. III il goes on little
while longer as il has since the Presi-
dent issued his proclamation, IL is go
ing against us.
L do not know whether that procla.
nation is going to be taken back or
not; L sm going TO vote to take it back
the first opportunity get. Cheers.
IL was q wicked thing to have issued.
Mr.. Lincoln said that on q certain day
he would issue such proclamation. =
Then came the elections. Indiana first
said, "Take it back" then Ohio, then
Pennsylvania, then Illinois, and then
New York-in all. nearly thirteen mil
lions of people in these States said to
Mr.. Lincoln, "Take it back" But he
has set himself above the people. They
are destroying our government, and
making the restoration Of it impossi-
ble." And yet he said the result OF the
election reminded him OF anecdote he
heard once out in Springfield, Ill. It
must have been very amusing, that ex-
preston Of the condemnation OF 49,
000. 900 people The people
say 10 Mr.. Lincoln, "You must stand
by the Constitution; you have no right
to make an abolition purpose OF this
war" Mr.. Lincoln says to the people,
you are not loyal. 1 am loyal" He
says. "You fellows, you men in work
shops and on farms, I'll put you in
dungeons il you do not be still when i
shake my head" This is the argu-
ment that comes back in response to
the expression at the polls.

and growing constitpency. The change In
the relative condition OF parties, by which, for
the FIRST time In eighteen years, the National
House OF Representatives viii be at war with the
Senate and the Executive Administration, and
the approach of another Presidential canvass,
will give fresh interest 20 many public questions,
which will be treated as the rise with Intelligence
the Centennial anniversary Of many interesting
events In our early annals, and will furnish occa-
sion for review and discussion OF many subjects

exciting events. such as will elicit the most alb
sorbing and widespread interest, creating an un-
among which THE DETROIT TRIBUNE stands
foremost, acknowledging no equal In the state
and but few outside OF IL.
The Presidential contest Is certain 20 be the
most hotly contested campaign that has been
fought since the organization OF the Government.
The Democratic party, long, and Justly excluded

struggle 20 get control OF the National Govern
ment. Believing that the success OF this organi-
zation would be national calamity, THE TRf-
BuSE will spare no energy OF means or pen 60
prevent so direful result. Maintaining Repubn-
can principles, such as it believes best for the
&c simply sn sssnay % oSns sss nio in
the administration OF government, Il gives TO the
Republican party an outspoken and hearty, but
policy and abuses In administration IL will not be

the END that the people shall be better served IL
will labor increasingly 10 cultivate such public
sentiment, and 90 difnse such general informa-
ton on ali questions OF politics as shall lead 20
grand and glorious Republican triumph, with
which fitly 90 enter upon the second hundred
years OF the life Of the Republic.
In the NEWS Department THE Tribune will
avail itself freely, as heretofore, of telegraphic
facilities and special correspondents, for the pur
pose OF giving the earliest authentic news In the
most attractive and readable form. Its compila-
ton OF Michigan news largely gathered by It's
own paid correspondents, far surpasses in yarte-
ty and extent that furnished by any other Detroit
paper.
Its AGRICULTURAL Department has only imita-
tions-nothing equal 70 IT, Its value In seen In
It's yolumlnous correspondents from practical
farmers and their wives, who make IL their medi-
um for exchanging views and intelligence.
