What is said of the Proclamation Abroad. The Consul-General of Frankfort-on-the-Maine, in Germany, writes to a gentleman of New York city: “The Emancipation Proclamation gives every general satisfaction. It has increased the value of American securities here, and likewise made us hosts of friends.”
Frankfort being the chief city of Germany, as New York is of America, the value of this opinion is very great.
