She ought also 10 be called the mother

Lincoln and Dunmere,
To the Editor OF the Dispatch:

~ tue EultOI VI luc OtepaVSu
Chauncey NJ. Depew, in his recent speech
at the centennial, gorifed Lincoln by
tracing to Washington the principles OF his
emancipation policy. What an idea Lord
Dunmofe, whose government in Virginia
Washington assisted TO depose, was the au-
thor OF those principles, and Washington re.
maiaed "a slaye-driver" and "save-
breeder" all bis life. 1t is time TO honor
Dunmore, II principles sre TO be considered.
Too long has bis Lordship's name remained
under load Of oblsquy. More than eighty
years before Lincoln he issued proclama-
ton offering freedom to the slaves, aud or-
ganized them, so Burk tells us, into military
companles. And the noble schemes OF this
patriotic Governor were defeated by the able
generalship OF the rebel Washington
And must DunmOre be forgotten while
Washington is eulogized as the father Of
emancipation! Ii is true that Bufk imputes
10 Dunmore the same design in pursuing
this policy as Lincoln declared was his
What II Duumore was not? without hope
Of involving the people in an insurrecton
with this mutinous and unfortunate race to
extricate themselves from whose horrors
they would be glad TO solicit his return"
Lincoln always declared that his measure
was taken 10 preserve the Union by enabling
him 10 attack the South with greater asyau-
tage. The measure by which we estimate
Lincoln ought 10 be that by which we esti-
mate Dunmore. For one say let justice be
done 10 Lord Dunmorel J..
