Power Behind the Throne.
Who has not wondered at the
vast influence welded over the
popular mind Of the North by such
men as VIM. Lloyd Garrison and
Wendell Phillips! Neither Of
these men ever held a public Office,
or attained influence by reason OF
authority. Yet, Mr.. Lincoln, as
President OF the United States,
never carried the weight Of popu-
lar influence possessed by Mr.. Gar
rison. Nor does Mr.. C'onkiing or
Blaine, carry the weight Of inhu-
ence possessed to-day by Wendell
Phillips. And why?
Garrison was, and Phillips IS ex-
ceptioual instances in the lives OF
public men. Possessed of fine
abilities, fine oratory, and all the
characteristics that 60 10 make great
leaders, they, neither, would ever
accept an Office, either elective or
aPpointive. Hence, their utter
ances went to the people as disin-
terested, patriotic, and for the good
Of the country. Hence, in one
sense, they became leaders Of North
ern sentiment ever and beyond
Presidents, Senator's, Congresses,
&c, &c.
Here is a grand field for men Of
ability and patriotism, if it will be
occupied. If not king-then be a
king-moker.
In Kentucky, we have a great
mind which seems to have chosen
