TUE NATIONAL ABOLITION CON
VENTION.
A few weeks ago the office holders,
contractors and other dependents, gener
ally; of the National Administration,
seemed to have the machinery all arrang
ed for' heir payon'a renomination; but
they appear to have counted without
their boat. Taking time by the fore
lock they - re-nominated Mr. LINCOLN in
some of tkiir "Union Leagues and in
other midnight assemblages of gouty
and plethoric politicians. The same
musty set of . well fed parasites con
trolled the action of the Abolition Na
tional Committee, and induced it to
call - ,their National Convention in
June, and in the City of Baltimore.
The earlier the better for "honest old
Abe," and the nearer to Washington,
the more easily the Convention could
be influenced by the Administration.
So, the friends of continuing the Ad
ministration in power, thinking they
had their. wires all fixed, reposed, in
apparent security, but 10, the formid
able name of Fremont is suddenly an
nounced, backed by the ponderous
GrotELY in favor of his nomination, and
matters immediately begin to assume a
different .aspect. GRIMLY insists upon
tie Convention being poatpontd, and
gives reasons for it "as strong as proof
of holy writ." Already this master
spirit of Abolitionism has made such
an impression as to cause the well
informed Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore Sun to write as follows:
Great efforts are being mide to get a phstpone
mem of the assembling of the hepubbean Na
tional Convention until .september. The atu
pendoutievents that are to come otr during the
spring and summer may put a phase upon the
subject of platform and candidates that does not
now exist.
It was to avoid the great events of
the summer, that 141.4cm...tea followers
fixed upon June for the Convention, be
cause if It were fixed for August or
September, and our arms unsuccessful
up to the time of its assembling, the
friends of Littcou; could not, with de
czncy, ask to have him continued in
office. But if they snominate in June,
they can rest secure; and throw the
responsibility of summer and fall disas
ters upon lawn., while appropriating
to the Administration all the credit
arising from undoubted triumph. This
has been the course heretofore pur
sued, and the same will be continued
hereafter. When Burnside slaughter

burgh, he was made to assume the re-

Thus it will be seen that while the
leaders of the Republican party at the
heads of kith the State and Federal
Governments exhibit their entire wil
lingness to spend the money of the peo
ple with a lavishness greater than sim
ple prodigality upon doubtful theories
and court favorites, they are not willing
to render to the poor private soldier in
the army the jut mood of his bard ser
vice and terrible ricks. They would
claim, too, to be the exclusive friends id
the soldier. They talk bombastically of
the great war for the Union ; flatter him
with allusions to his glorious calling.
and magnify the glories of his ht roic
death on the battle-field, but—they starve '
