olicy already legalized by the Northern Congress, there could be nothing gained by issuing this proclamation but some popularity with the insane fanatics of abolitionism. To propitiate them and relieve himself from the pressure of their continued appeals, Lincoln must have taken the step. But it will raise up enemies against him in the border States that will plague his imagination, and rob him of many a night's rest. We have only to read Mr. Nelson's eloquent address to the people of East Tennessee, to be satisfied of this. That gentleman was the ablest of the Southern Union party in the Federal Congress before secession. He has proved himself to be one of the most devoted of them; holding on up to the date of the proclamation to his hope of reconstructing the Union, and his aversion to the Southern cause. That paper has aroused the dormant spirit of State rights and State sovereignty in his heart, and he comes out like a man and a true patriot in their defence. He is worth a t

He is worth a thousand men to the South. He will have worthy compeers standing by him, struggling nobly for that just cause which Northern tyranny and outrage have at last forced him to response. The next folly of the Brigand Government in its war of rapine will be the arming of the slaves by authority from Washington.

d they of course sweep everything. The Southern patriot knows that if the Southern army fails to protect him the Northern robbers will despoil him of everything he possesses, and may not spare his life. It matters not with him, therefore, that Lincoln by proclamation declares his slaves free. Since, then, it accomplishes nothing more than the policy already legalized by the Northern Congress, there could be nothing gained by issuing this proclamation but some popularity with the insane fanatics of abolitionism. To propitiate them and relieve himself from the pressure of their continued appeals, Lincoln must have taken the step.
