est disregard for the laws they have sworn to administer, who have not been more or less sensitive of ridicule. A man may brave the passions of an angry mob, but he does not like exposing himself to be laughed at.--Mr. Lincoln seemingly cares as little for the ridicule as he does for the anger of the American people.--He must be well aware that his proclamation will prove a brutum fulmen. Gen. Hunter, not many months since, in a moment of Abolitionist zeal, emancipated all the slaves in South Carolina; but, to the surprise of everybody, the slaves paid no attention to his proclamation, and worked away harder than ever in throwing up those fortifications which insured the subsequent repulse of the Federal forces. Does Mr. Lincoln suppose that they will pay readier obedience to his manifesto? Liberty, we should have supposed, would recommend itself, if at all to a slave, by its intrinsic excellence, and that the mode of manumission would be regarded with indifference. If the slaves o

The removal of the slaves would, therefore, accomplish two desirable objects — the safety of the Union, and the increase and employment of a white population; but, alas I in our generation this is impossible without a terrible outrage on humanity. The Constitution in a question goes for nothing, if the plan be successful. In large polities, success practically justifies every wrong. [from the Liverpool Mercury, Oct, 7.] Viewing President Lincoln's proclamation in its immediate effect on the position of the war, there is every reason to believe that it will induce the great border of Kentucky, which has hitherto wavered between the North and the South, to join the South with its whole strength immediately, and that it will induce the other two border States of Missouri and Maryland to do so at the earliest opportunity. Viewed with reference to the interests of the war or the prospects of restoring the Union, it is an enormous blunder.

Such is the existing state of things in New York, in Boston, in Philadelphia.--cities far removed from the seat of war. Such is the liberty enjoyed by the free citizens of America. The measure was, we suppose, deemed necessary by the President in consequence of the invitation lately given by the Governors of Pennsylvania and Ohio to those of the other States to meet and deliberate on public affairs. Such a meeting would undoubtedly be construed into an act of rebellion, and we suppose that the President intends to arrest the refractory Governors.--The several States, however, value their individual independence even more than they do the integrity of the Union, and it is far from likely that they would tamely permit their Governors to be sent to prison in compliance with the Federal authority.--The procl

attle-fields of Virginia, in the many thousands of Northern men who he burted there, and the enormous debt the war has created. No legal fiction can make such testimony as this of no effect. There is something ludicrous in such a proclamation, solemnly made by the Federal Government when its own capital is almost beleaguered. Immense armies old not fight in their sleep, nor did the tens of thousands perish in a dream, that the terrible conflict can be so easily forgotten. The Manchester cotton men on "Sunkum" andfanaticism. [From the Manchester Guardian, Oct. 7.] The proclamation is evidently nothing more that a compound of "bunkum" on a grand scale, with the swaggering bravado so conspicuous throughout the present war. We have no doubt the President sincerely desires the extinction, of slavery, but he has himself told us that there is a thing he desires more; and in his address to the border States he made. It a topic of piteous complaint that, unless they came to hi

It is scarcely possible to treat seriously of this singularated, shall, in the absence, of strong, contravening testimony, be deemed" "not to have been in rebellion against the United States." Applying this test, the Federal Government will, on the 1st of January, for the better information of the world, fs the assumed authority of the Federal Executive less unconstitutional than it is preposterous. The President of the United States has no more power to liberate a slave in Virginia than Queen Victoria; and, for that matter, neither has the Federal ure of each State possesses the sole power of emancipating the slaves within its continues.

Oct. 7.] We regard the news brought by the Australasian as the most serious and the most important which has for several months been received from America. Physical force admits of tolerable easy calculation Battles may be won or lost, but the result of all battles after all, mainly depends upon the operation of a concealed force — a moral force. McClellan has taken home victories to Washington, and his troops have been praised for the valor they displayed in the field of battle. The Government at Washington, however, have evoked another power — a moral power; and although they probably suppose there never will arise an occasion for putting it into operation, the more announcement of it is full of danger to America, to Europe, and to humanity.

, not by Confederate aggression, but by domestic insecurity. War has been declared between the Federal government and its acknowledged subjects. The proclamation emancipating the slaves is evidently a bait thrown out to gain the support of the Abolitionist party.--It will prove useless. The American people have of late submitted to much, but we do not believe that they will nationally accept of a degrading despotism dictated by the feeblest and most contemptible of governments. Mr. Lincoln Plays his "last card"--he Accepts the policy of the "violent zealots" of the Republican party. [From the London Times, Oct. 6.] Even in this crisis of the war, the most important part of the last intelligence refers to a political, not a military, movement. President Lincoln has separated himself from the moderate Republicans, and fully accepted the extreme policy of the violent zealots the party includes without combining with them. He has played his last card. He has declared by a p
