Some days ago Mr.N Wilson, of *j4j?ssacliu8etts, made a speech, in the ?Senate on the political situation, in i* which he advanced some speculations aa to the future. His remarks have I been the subject of comment in the [inewspapers, but have been misinter? preted. He said: Two years ago, in a trying hour of I the country, we placed a great soldier at the head of all our armies, and he >*?ed the armies to victory and the kountry to peace. Perhaps a patriotic and liberty loving people, if disap? pointed in their aspirations and their hopes, may turn to that great captain and summon him again to marshal ?bern to victory. ?* Certain copperhead journal sendea vor to make it appear the St i ator meant thatGen. Giant might be called to be a dictator under certain circum? stances, after the manner of Crom s well or Napoleon. This interpreta? tion of his language is very far fetch? ed and stupid. Wo think the mean? ing is plain enough. It is this: The radicals inter d to carry their revolu? tionary measurers and to keep the i Southern States pot until- after the next Presidential Vtri^tfon, and per? ils indefinitely, in order to per? d?ate their power. If President Johnson should st md in their way if they can neither coax n JV drive him-if he will not accept the bait for anc her term, by abandouk g his , vn policy and falling into theirs, ?iiey " then look to t e "gre??? soldier n.
