or-no .Union, the politicians havej
shown the instinctive; knowledge that |
.there is no aivorMly of purpose among j
jkc people. The applause was hearty ,
and loud over tlsoj manly passage. ‘Tf :
the people should, by! whatever mbde'|
or mta.ns, make Executive duty tore j
enslave such persons, another ant! *6l
I must be tbeir instrument to perform
if.” ■ But the concluding words of the
message, “The war will ctnl-o on the
pfirt of the Government! whenever it
shall have ceased|on the part of those
who began it,” was.received by the
Union members with a demonstration
of true satisfaction that was full of
significance. The. Democrats sat,sul
len iu their seats, leaving thejirinted
copies of. the Message, which had been
distributed when the reaping com-!
monccd, unopeiiod pn their desks. ,
The Message of the Presider.i, says
the New York Tribune which was
yesterday delivered td bpttj Houses of
Congress; is, as alb Mr: Lincol's state
papers a re, a straigbl-forwaid and bits
sinese-like It . gives to Con
