Ste trust that tie reader will not content himself with a hasty perusal of these proceed ings, but that he will ponder upon them, and then ask himself whether it would be safe for Republican institutions to continue Mr. Lincoln any longer in power? That he has made up his mind to fasten.himself upon the Gov ernment,, is eyident from what dropped from his lips during the interview in question. In order to thoroughly understand the depth of craft and : lnfamy, shown by the President in his scheming to re-elect himself, the reader must remember that Congress, at its last session, passed an act declaring Tennessee and other rebel States without the pale of the Union, and therefore precluded from participa• ting in the coming Presidential election. This bill the President refused to sign, adhering to his own plan of reconstruct. ing the rebel States, which wigs and is the "one-tenth" outrage, to which we have so frequently alluded. So high Landed and daring a usurpation never took place in this country before, and it is not paralleled by many 3 l r those of old; which have called forth so much warning and denunciation from kenuine American statesmen.

There will be a meeting of the Democ racy this Friday evening, in the Key stone McClellan Club rooms, in East Birmingham. Alex. Mcilwaine and Francis Felix will be present and address the meet ing. nThe biarpfinoh t e e e ttiV : t Telquaes [From the National Welke leer, October 17 ] Otis readers will remember that when Messrs. Wade and Davis, in their man ifestoaddressed "To the Supporters of Government," charged . President Lin coln with a deliberate purpose "to hold the rebel states at the dictation of his personal ambition," we ascribed to an error of judgement what these political friends of the President did not scruple to denounce as a premeditated wrong, inspired by selfish motives .of political aggrandizement. We could not bring ourselves to believe anything so deroga tory to the personal honor and official integrity of Mr. Linco!n as these gentle. men were not slow to impute to him; and hence, while we concurred with them in the exceptions they took to the policy of the exi utive in regard to the states which he as undertaking to re construct accor g to his own notions of wrjght and Wrong, we regretted the acerbity of the time which they held to ward the chief magistrate of the country, and the injurious imputations they cast on his motives. Unless we greatly mis take the effort of the evidence we lay be fore our readers to-day, the whole peo ple of the United States will now be able to perceive that Messrs Wade and Davis did not exceed the severity which was required by the occasion, and did no injus tice to the President in the arraignment by which they brought him before the tri bunal of public opinion on the charge of grace executive usurpation. • By reference to the papers and corres pondence which will be found in another column, the reader will see that on Sat urday last a citizen of Tennessee, wel known to us for his consistent loyalty, acting on behalf of that large portion of the people of that state whom Mr. An drew Johnson, the military governor of Tennessee, and the Republican candi date for the vice presidency, has se•ught to disfranchise, pri sented to the Presi dent a respectful protest against the great wrong committed by his military subordinate and political associate, that the wrong, be;ng thus brought to his notice, might receive that prompt cor rection at his hands which reason and justice and law and public decency com bine to make imperative. And what was the President's reply to this respectful representation? Sim• ply this: ."May I inquire how long it took you and the New York politicians to concoct that paper?" It would seem that the President is unable to see in the appeal of a free and loyal people de- manding their inherited and constitu tional rights anything taore noble than an electioneering trick, — concocted by New York politicians." To the injury attempted against the great majority of the loyal citizens of Tennessee by his military agent and political companio on the Republican ticket, the Presiddn adds the sting of insult by construing their plea into a mere device on the part of the friends of General McClellan for "managing their side of the contest." And when informed that no New York politician had had anything to do with "concocting" this protest of loyal Ten- nesseans, (who know their rights, with out being under the necessity of asking any New York politicians what they are), the President still persisted in see ing nothing in this paper that could no be sufficiently answered by a sneer will answer," said Mr. Lincoln, empha "that I expect to let the friends of George B. McClellan manage their side of this contest in their own way, and I will manage my side of it in my We beg to submit to the President that the friends of George B. McClellan, in "managing their side of this contest," have nothing on which to rely (and they want no more) than the power of truth and the weight of his honorable and patriotic name. But when the Pres ident, whh all his physical agencies and appliances for controlling public opin ion, if he is disposed to use them un fairly, informs us that "he will manage his side of the contest in his way," we beg to suggest that it would be more reputable and pruper for him to leave all "management" of this kind in the hands of his "friends." If, however, the President proposes to undertake the management of this canvass "in his own way," and if the proceeding of .Mr. An drew Johnson, his military subordinate and political associate on the Republi can ticket, is one of his "ways," the peo ple of the United States cannot know it a moment too soon, that they may take coun sel for the preservation of their liberties, attacked in the very sanctuary of the na tion, when the elective franchise of free and loyal citizens is puPander the dicta tion of a President who is a candidate for the popular suffrages. Justly may the Springfield Republican say, as it does, that neither the President nor his mili tary subordinate in Tennessee has "any more right to require an oath against . the Chicago platform than one against the Assemb y's Catechism, as a condi tion of voting in Tennessee. It is to disfranchise every Democratic voter in the State." And well may the New York Advertiser add, if anything of the free American spirit be left in the land, that "no party can thrive upon such misdeeds, and the sooner they are re pudiated the better for it and fur the country. They are feeble but signifl• cant imitations of the established despo tisms of Europe, and offer as little pros pect of a free election as that by which the present French Emperor reached his throne. • TICE FRIGATE WABASH IN A DANGER ous POSITION.—We learn that the noble old frigate Wabash, 48 guns, Captain John DeCamp, while on her passage from Port Royal, went ashore on the Frying Pan Shoals, off the coast of North Carolina, and remained in that perilous position eight hours.

But here is the article:— Prominent German Organ Comes out for Ltn coha, The .Agzeiner, of fit. Louis, comes out for Lincoln in the following style: What we have feared so long, and what has been promiunced even by such radicals as Wade and Davis, an usurpa tion and coup d'etat, seems about to be realized. Abraham Lincoln through his tools, causes electoral tickets to be put up in the so-called reconstructed Stites, in order to obtain by a cheat those votes which he cannot get in the free States. The beginning has been made in Ten nessee. This State is togi.ve some thir teen electoral votes elected by some thousand illegal or :compulsory votes for Lincoln ; almost as many electoral votes as the State of Indiana, with sev eral hundred legitimate voters, is enti tled to. Similar forces will doubtless be inaugurated in Louisiana and Ai:kens:a and Florida. For to what other purpo: , e have the streams of blood been slit d at o.uStee and on the R'6d river, and why else were out troops kept at Little Rock, when they might have done better tier vice on the frotier of Missouri. The votes of these "reconstructed' States—States ruled by Lincoln's Pro vost Marshal's—will form the reserve, which Lincoln keeps at hand, in order to secure his election at all events. If by his greenback factories, and patron age and soldiers he obtains a majority of votes in the loyal States, he will be generous and cause Congress to throw out the votes of the Southern "rotten boroughs." It, on the contrary, he is whipped in the North, and needs those "rotten" votes, they w:11 be counted. so as to fur n,sh Lincoln a pretence fur his usfirpa tion, or as Seward expressed it, so as to make bin, President of the whole Uni ted States. This is the plan. It has been no se cret for a long time past. Olustdt and Red River are the bloody witnesses; and if any doubt were remaining the order to fill up an electoral ticket in Tennes• see has dispelled it. Lincoln and his advisers arc playing a desperate game. They provoke civil war in the North to maintain their pow-. er. But they will lose their fame. Can it be possible that the Commer cial too has abandoned our second and improved Washington? if it be so then my stock goes to Mcllwaine's at once. Yours, A "FIRST CLASS" SUBSCRIBER. FROM MISSOURI • Outrage. Upon ld'Clenan Meu—New. ofbhe liebot Invailun--The Political Canvass. ISAINT Louts, October 14. In plain words, the Democracy of Missouri are intimidated from the can vass over a greater portion of their state. They have secured the necessary military timers from the commanding officer of the department for the holding of a free and fair election; but unless a fair hearing can also be assured the ef fort becomes hopeless. Three serious disturbances have occurred during the discussions of the past few weeks by, the violent and unauthorized action of The folowing letter, forwarded to headquarters yesterday, it will be seen, is an effort to avoid similar distur bances, or to place the onus where i belongs. DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL COM. I }SUTTEE, Sr. LOUIS , October 12. Major General W. S. Rosecrans, eon manding Department bf Missouri: GENERAL: 1 enclose: 1. A circular just issued by this com mittee, entitled "Illegal Interference in Elections," and designed for distribu tion in this state. 2. Accounts from a morning journal of such "illegal interference" with Dem ocratic meetings in Chillicothe and B Joseph s useless for the Democracy to prosecute a canvass ifthese disturbances be not stopped. It is worse than use less—it is a crime to the people and treason to our cause. Were we to sus peed discussion on the policies of the administration, and, assign these out— rages as the reason, we should produce the moral efft ct of such wrongs—indig• nation and sympathy—throughout the North, We would cease to ask our own citizens, as we are now cluing, with grave responsibility, for an expression of legit imate opiniosr upon the pretence of free dom, at the hazard of their lives. The Democrats of the State would be sudden ly presented with the alternative of for cible opposition or submission to thehour; and, choosing the latter, the Democrats of the Union could not be indifferent to the necessity which must have' corn— polled such a surrender of citizenship. Suffering in silence and preserving the show of a free canvass, the enemies of order take courage from our forbearance. Our political associates in other States are kept in ignorance of our real condi tion. The weak or the wavering, seeing such penalties as the dangers of the Lin dell riot, of the Third Ward riot, the Troy riot, and lastly tffose disorders at Chillicothe and St. Joseph, attached to. ' an expression of Democratic opinion, adopt and follow the already overheaten paths of inaction and cowardice. These assaults, then, are as inimical to a free . _ canvass, as a presidential order prohibit leg it would be.. They are more so.
