[from the Daily Telegraph, Jan. 31.] Whenever a flourish of trumpets of unusually aggressive volume is ventured upon, it becomes expedient to ask what manner of men the trumpeters may be who have so very fiercely attempted to blast down the walls of Jericho. Let us glance at some of the most conspicuous of the tribunes who, by hook or by crook, were got together under the auspices of the Emancipation Society. The chairman was Mr. William Evans, doubtless a most worthy and estimable member of society, but who, as a politician, orater, or public man, is utterly unknown beyond the confines of Exeter. Hall. Mr. P. A. Taylor, M. P., is a rampant kind of Republican, who very speedily found his level in the Commons House of Parliament.

If even what is called the world — the frivolous, unthinking people who take their opinions from the press, who dislike Yankees for their pertness and boasting, and admire Lee and Jackson for their unexampled heroism — if even jealous politicians or illiberal soldiers stood apart, surely there would be enough of the more original thinkers to fill a platform ?
