THE DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND, MAINE. Friday Mirtitag, Oct. *21, 1802. ----— The Portland Daily Press has the largest regular circulation of any daily paper in the city. They Reluse to Meet the Issue. In discussing the great political questions now pressing for solution, and particularly in discussing the merits of the President’s proc lamation, it is to be regretted that, for reasons best kuown to themselves, the opponents of that proclamation dodge the real issue, and continually thrust forward false issues—issues subordinate iu their character, aud which ap peal not to the latent patriotism of the people, and their willingness to make sacrifices lor their country's good, but rather take hold of the crudest prejudices of the common mind, and the lowest motives which can influence a community iu an hour of common danger. It is now nearly two years since one State— South Carolina—like a lawless planet, flew from the orbit in which for more than half a century it had revolved, severing, so far as its own act could, the bond which, like giavita tiou in the solar system, had held it in proper allegiauce to the common center of the sys tem of which it was a part. That act of in subordination was soon followed by kindred acts on the part of other Stales, and in the April following the rebellion against law and constitutional authority—up to that time blood less in its progress—culminated in open, de fiant, bloody war upon the flag of our coun tryvind the forcible capture of one of the forts, —the common property of the nation. It was then that the rebels, flushed with vic tory, and intoxicated with their inglorious suc cess, through their cabinet ministers, threaten ed to occupy the national capital, and to die tatn Intir tn tKo <imintrti IVntit lltrr ioiluful /sift’ on the then approaching 4tli of July, and to run up the symlHil of their rebellion on the flag staff of Fai.euil Hall! It was then that rebellion menaced and thundered at the gates of the capital, and the nation first became fully alive to the terrible consciousness that its very existence was threatened, nnd that every en ergy must be taxed to prevent the erasure of the American Union from the map of the world. And for what was all this ? What caused this fearful attempt of wicked men to over throw the government of their fathers ? Grant, if the opponents of the means adopted to put down the rebellion demand it, that slavery has had nothing to do with inaugurating our trou bles, still the fact exists that the troubles are upon us, and the further fact stands out that the rebellion was commenced the very day af ter the Presidential election, and it was openly and plainly declared to be because of the re sult of that election, and of the determination of the rebels not to submit to the rule of offi cers elected by the Republican party. In other words, it was a blow aimed at Constitu tional authority and Constitutional liberty— the liberty of the people, through the Consti tional voice of the majority, to select their own rulers and to govern themselves, it was a blow at the vital element ot all genuine prac tical democracy—the right of tile majority to govern, within the prescribed limits of the Constitution. Such being the fact, the rebell ion stands forth without excuse, w ithout justi fiable cause, a bloody, wicked, diabolical revolt against the freest and best government on the face of the earth. In the progress of the war forced upon the government by the disuniouists, it has become plainly aud painfully apparent to the Presi dent of the United States, that the institution of slavery has been the great source ol strength to the rebel states; that it has enabled all the white strength to be pressed into actual strife, and that to destroy this institution in such states, would be to strike rebellion in its most vulnerable point, and to open a vein through which would flow its vital blood. He has come—in common with a large proportion of the best thinkers of the country—to the con clusion that the slave power is the power of the rebellion; that it is arrayed against the authority of law and the Constitution, and to strike it is to strike the rebellion itself; aud it is because of his convictions on this point, and not from any abolition sympathies, that he has issued his Emancipation Proclama tion. As a statesman, as the Executive head of the nation, or as Commander-in-chief of the army, it is admitted that the President has no right to be controlled by mere sentiment, by his sympathies, or by his moral convictions alone, and lie lias not been. He has been forced up to the step he has taken by no fanatical spirits, by no radical politicians, by no aversion to slavery per se, by no sympathy for abolition or anti-slavery, (though we do not believe lie is cold or dead to such feelings,) but he lias been forced by his conviction that slavery is the power behind the rebellion, from which it derives its strength and susteuance, aud with out which it would become uerveless and inef ficient for the evil purposes to promote which it has been inaugurated. Now the plain question before the people— involved in the proclamation—la, not whether freedom will benefit the negroes, whether emancipation is desirable, whether the negroes in freedom will support themselves, whether emancipation will increrse the taxes, whether It will overrun the free States, whether it will Interfere with northern labor, whether it will take from the industrial productions of the world;—it is none of these nor all combined, but the question is, will the emancipation of the slaves in the rebel states, reduce the strength of the rebellion itself, and render its subjugation an easier task? Will it be a step towards subduing the rebellion ? This is the real issue. Emancipation may not be desirable ' to some people, but if it will aid in conquering a peace, is not that desirable ? It is not to | benefit the slaves that emancipation is to be ; decreed, but to benefit the country. Does any one say the negroes will overrun the north, if freed, and that this would be an evil ? But are not the rebels themselves trying to over run the north, to rob and destroy,—and is not this a greater evil? Are armed, murderous rebels less to be feared than harmless—even if indolent—blacks ? If the opponents of emancipation,—emanci pation not so much for emancipation’s sake as for the country s sake,—would confine them selves to the real issue, it would be better for the public peace, and they would do less mis chief than they are now doing by inflaming the minds of the ignorant and unthinking with fears of competition between the free uegroes and white laborers. The very objections urg ed against forced emancipation form not only a confession of its eflieiency, hat indicate, on the part of its objectors, a spirit little better than treasonable. Take the following as an example: Sill'll emancipation involves loss to the whole Civilized world ol the labor of lour millions ol black persons. I his will be demonstrated by cotton goods advancing from six cents to twenty-live ceuts, to seventy-five cents or one dollar per yard; by the loss of rice, sugar, to- ; bacco and other products of black labor,which for the last century have formed no inconsid erable part of the trade of the world. It in- ! volvee a tremendous direct expense. The | 1 ————————— President desires to compensate loyal men for their slaves. If he has to pay for only one million, or only one fourth part of the whole, one can determine how many hundred mil lions of dollars w ill lie required. This in ad dition to the war debt may well cause men to ask how can it be paid ? The above is from the Machias Union—a violent secession-sympathizing paper, which has become notorious for its opposition to the war. and its clamors for compromise and con- | cession. It is a full confession to the eIBcien- ' cy ol the Proclamation for emancipating the slaves, for it secs as the fruits of that procla mation the labor of ail the slaves taken from the civilized world. The non-production ar gument is a full confession that, emancipation would become general. Hut don't the fact al'o stand out that rebellion, rampant and un subdued, is preferable UHshort crops, to high prices, and to increased taxation?—and need we argue that he who will sell his country, or his country’s honor, or his country’s freedom, or his country’s rightful authority, for big crops, for cheap merchandize, or for low taxes, is no better than a traitor? The point is too plain to require ii'usrfatioa or elaboration. We havn't time to prick this objection and let all the wind out of it—and it contains noth ing else—lint a single consideration will show its absurdity. If 4,000,000 of slaves are now at work in the South, adding to the produc tions of the country, it is equally true that neat ly 8,000,000 of whites are in idleness, sub sisting upon tlie products of tiiose laboring blacks. Now if the blacks stop work,and their productions no longer support an indolent white population, then that white population must itsell go to work and become produces, for it is sure, much ns they dislike work they would dislike starvation more. It comes Ui this, then; that in the very worst aspect of : the objection, the number of the laborers w ill not lie reduced, nor will their productiveness, but the white people will be compelled to per form labor now done by the slaves; and if work is a blessing then we aw ait the proof that miv meat curse would result unless to tile blacks. lint the whole objection is a bugbear un worthy a lodgment in any intelligent brain. It is not only a baseless objection in itself, but it comu* of a traitorous spirit, which would see the government overthrown to secure aheap living and avoid high taxes. The Advertiser ofWednesday, contained a similar objection, couched in different lan guage, but born of a kindred spirit. Said that article: Argue, reason, hope, desire, threaten, and persuades as we will, "to this complexion does it come ul last;"—Abolition of slavery, or Ab olition of t he Union. What then ? If the abolition ol slavery or tlie abolition of the Union must come—and tills is tlie assertion of the above—we require uot a moment to decide where we will be found. We say, save the t'nion though sla very, and all who uphold or apologize for it, are ground finer than impalpable powder. If such lie the late that awaits us, the editor of the Advertiser must take sides, and lie can scarcely shirk the responsibility of doing so by saying, though he do it a thousand times and with ever so much solemnity : Our readers need not be told anew, be tlie consequences w hat they may to us, or ours, that we are now, and Ibrever, unalterably and eternally, openly and unmistakably, against both propositions. If the question is reduced to the abolition of the Union or the abolition of slavery, and one must come, it is a very awukward position for any man acknowledging this state of things,to say he is uncompromisingly opposed to both, j He|inay say so, but who will believe him? or j who can give him credit for patriotism in such a neutrality ? [Kortbe Daily Tress. Pitiable Exhibition. Editors Press :—If tlie Advertiser's report of Train's speech on Monday evening, is not ■ grossly unfair toward him, the lecturer made ; a most pitiable exhibition of himself. That a | man who prides himself upon his reputation as a defender of American institutions abroad, ! should stoop so low, in addressing an audi- I euce of nis countrymen at home, is exceeding- j ly humiliating to a portion of his readers and ! hearers, who are thus compelled to feel that i with his Yankee smartness,—freely conceded,— he has at the same time exposed himself to the charge ol Yankee vulgarity, so often made by foreigners wiio have seen only unfortunate specimens of tlie American citizen. The changes rung upon the “nigger,” are sufficiently disgusting in the report. How much more tasteful and refined tile speaker's handling of the subject may have been, I do not kuow. The reporter seems to have been very much in sympathy with the lecturer, and lias probably given tlie spirit as well as the sub stance ol "the Express Train's” performance. “The nigger is everywhere.” So affirms the Advertiser in a recent article, in which the au thor attempts to use tlie same unfortunate “nigger" in lurtherauce of certain notions aud schemes of his own. Mr. Train, with a remarkable follow-feeling for the author of that article, jumps on to the same track, and pursues a similar train of thought and expression. The Advertiser in forms his readers that it was only in burlesque. Possibly the Advertiser, too, in the article be fore referred to, was only attempting to play a joke upon bis readers. Certainly lie could not have exp-cted intelligent leaders to swal low tlie whole dose ottered them in that article, as u serious conviction of the author's mind. That tlie negro is everywhere, in the great national commotion now shaking the conti -- outiu v»v.ij,—a mu iuu sin emnly true ro be treated in the ‘•burlesque,” fitting only a stage clown. By the Advertiser’s own assertion, lie is there by no agency of his own. Other men, of the past and the present, are alone responsible for the place lie occu pies in the drama now enacting; a drama of which every act and every scene is quite too tragic to admit of low comedy or political j clap-trop. I’lie "nigger” as a slave, or in other expres- I sion, slavery itself, is in this whole matter, at- ' tempt to wink it out of sight who will. And because patriotic and earnest men, of far-sight- I ed statesmanship, or of only common sagaei- ! ty, can see no sure deliverance from the evils j in which Slavery has involved us, but by the i overthrow ot slavery itself, wherever the Con stitution and the necessities of war allow it to be done, a certain class or politicians are seeking to re-awuken the old prejudices against aboiitioiists and abolitionism, as if so shallow a device would lilt them into popular favor, iu this second year of the Slaveholders' ! Great Rebellion. As it tile people were not i aware that leading men in all the 1 lyal States, ! who two years ago were affected with this same horror of abolitionism. are now the most emphatic and decided anti-slavery men. Some j of them, 1 know, prefer some other name to | that of abolitionist; but they are thoroughly ! converted to the principle that slavery is a wrong to tile slave, and a damage to his mas ter, and especially is an inevitable and "irre pressible disturber of tlie public peace, and ought to be put under bonds to violate the peace no more forever. More than a year ago Generel Butler, well known to have disliked everything savoring of abolition, said to the writer, "I regald slavery as tliis day doomed. I am not much of an abolitionist, but 1 contend that rebel slavehold er' have forfeited all claims to the protection of their property in slaves, and tile institution must perish.” This sentiment in nearly his own words, is the prevailing sentiment among men who are not endeavoring to clamber into places of authority, on the ground of some boasted conservatism, which they parade be fore the public, as if it contained an iota of merit. The true conservatives are those who would preserve the spirit and the fact of liber ty in the institutions of their country, and who would remove therefrom every vestige of barbarism, just as soon as the way is legiti mately open, whether through the changes possible in time of peace, or through the ne cessities forced upon us by the untoward reb els who have declared themselves “aliens and foreigners,” and have followed their declara tion by determined and bloody war. The true conservative is he who defends his country against these assaults upon her honor and integrity, striking hack vigorous and heavy blows upon tile assailing party; no matter that slavery feels the blow, and stag ger- to it- downfall, if thereby the rebellion may lie sooner crushed. When our public lecturers w ish to discuss the relations of the “nigger” to the war and the country, let them do it in the spirit of so ber men. recognizing and comprehending the great fact, if they can, that as a slave, lie lias done us infinite mischief, and as a slave lie will ever continue to be a source of trouble, mor ally, economically, socially, and politically.

"JT* The Iowa election, it is well known lias gone very differently from those in Indi ana and Ohio.

Postage Currency.—We learn that some persons are so short-sighted as to sell what i postage currency they get to b okers, and oth i ers at a premium. Now the moment the brok j ers can run this currency up aliove par, hold ers, instead of paying it out, will keep it in their pockets, and defeat tlie objects ol the government in issuing it. We look upon the selling of postage currency now at a premium, as treason on a small scale, or in its incipient stages, treason, we mean to the best good and convenience of our mercantile community. Honor to whom honor is due.—Carleton, the correspondent of the Boston Journal, says that the Governor ofoneol the we stern States is preparing “a roll of honor" of all the names ol the officers and soldiers, who have enlisted in reeouiineuus mat other States do likewise.

ZW~ A memorial is in circulation in Balti more for signatures, asking the President for the removal of Gen. Wool, based on his ad vanced age, and his unfitness from age and in firmity to afford the protection to the city that the loyal citizens thereof think may possibly I be demanded. The memorial closes as Ibl- j lows; “We respectfully suggest that the President earnestly consider the precarious position of the loyal portion of this community, and the questionable physical and.ntal competency of Gen. Wool, and spare those who wish him well the mortification ot being obliged to hear everywhere, and at all times, the rude tilings, true though they be, which are said of him.” From an article in yesterday’s Adver tiser, one might infer that llie editorial staff of that establishment had been strengthened by tile addition of an Hymeneal editor, lie de scribes a lady's toilet with scrupulous exact ness, “the gently heaving bosom,” the flowers upon it "tortunate in the service to which they were dedicated,” even the exact circumlereitee of the "white muslin veil,” and “its many per forations,” with the “charms” "escaping through them,” and with “sorrow” is stopped by “the length of the dress” only, from a de scription ol the “stockings!” The ladies may i feel grateful for a fashion that stands him in- j stead of modesty, and protects their under- I garments from his prying gaze. From the Springfield Itopubtican. The Tower to Knancipnte. Judge B. R. Curtis of Boston has published a pamphlet criticism of the president's last two proclamations, the proclamation of emancipa tion and the proclamation of general martial law in reference to a certain class of otl'enses. Judge Curtis does not of course lind any war rant in the constitution for either of these acts. But he also denies the power of the president as commander-in-chief to perform them as acts of war. Judge Curtis is a close reasouer, but his logic runs in the professional ruts, and seems to us to fail of that breadth and comprehensiveness required in the discus sion of the president's acts. Of course it must be conceded to Judge Curtis that there is no warrant in tlie constitution for either of these proclamations. But it does not therefore fol low that the constitution is violated in their utterance and enforcement. They meet exi gencies not provided tor by tlie constitution. The only question that remains is, Are they justilied by the condition ol the country? Judge Curtis does not deny that under mar tial law slavery may be interfered with and abolished, in spite of state laws and constitu tional guaranties. But he endeavors to limit the operation of martial law to tlie portion of territory actually occupied by the armies. We can sue no reason for any such limitation of the president's power as J udge Curtis sets up. Tile books may sustain it, but it is not common sense. It does not meet the circumstances of the present ease. We believe that the verdict of the American people, lawyers and all, should be and will be, that tlie president has the right to abolisii slavery as an act of war. The poli cy of tlie measure is another question, but that the president has decided lor hiiusell, as it was his duty to do,according to liisow u judgement and under a heavy responsibility to the nation lie seeks to save. And w e cannot but feel that it is the duty of the people to stand by him anil co-operate heartily in tlie measures lie has adopted. Juil^c Curtis quotes from a recent paragraph iu the Republican to point the moral of his es say : We suspect he read the passage from the Republican as reproduced with comments iu the Boston Courier, otherwise he would have comprehended that the point made was just that which he so fully elaborates in other parts of his essay—the power of the president, act ing as commander-in-chief to do things under martial law not prodded for by the constitu- ! tion. Judge Curtis does not deny that power: he only seeks to limit it, and he seems to us to i up arbitrary and impossible limitations. We set | still feel that uobody should care whether the j proclamations are constitutional or not.
