President Lincoln says: If I could save

would doit; and if I could save it by
c> freeing all the slaves, X would do it; and
*‘il I could save it by freeing some and
w leaving others alone, I would also do
e ' that,”
It seems to us that President Lincoln
Vith his usual frankness here admits that
ie has not yet definitely decided in his
own mind what course he should adopt in
Regard to the controlling dement in this
terrible conflict. We would respectfully
ask. is this a condition of things becoming
to our Executive in this tearful crisis?
■What further amount of suffering, of ex
penditure, of mortification, of loss of con
fidence at home and of character abroad,
Jnust be undergone before this great doubt
Shall be solved ?
President Lincoln possesses many quali
fications and characteristics that attach to
Lim the admiration and respect of our
people. His unselfishness, his unambitious,
unpretentious, undoubted patriotism, his
logical ability and his pure character give
Slim a strong hold on the hearts of the
people. 'Why can he not rise above the
trammels of mere policy—always short
Sighted and time serving—to a clear com
prehension of the requirements of this
great exigency 1 He has it in his power

“We spread before our readers this morn
ing Sect clary Seward’s letter to Eirl Rus
sell, the British Minister of Foreign Affairs,
and the response of the latter. These doc
uments will attract much attention. Earl
Piussel reasserts the strict neutrality of the
British Government, and states that at this
moment “ they have nothing more at heart
than to see that consummation which the
President speaks of in his answer to the
Governors of eighteen States, viz: ‘the
bringing of this unnecessary and injurious
civil war to a speedy and satisfactory con
clusion.’ ”
Portions of the reply are marked with bit
terness. He speaks of “ the {multi com
ttantly hcajicd upon the British name in
{American) speeches and newspapers,” and
lie rigor, beyond the usual practice of na
tions, with which Ibe Queen’s subjects at
tempting to break from the blockade of the
ports of tbe South have been treated. In
the closing paragraph be makes what was
intended for a sharp observation to the ef
fect that as to the course of opinion in Eng
land, “ the President is aware that perfect
freedom to comment upon ah public events
IS In Ibis country, the invariable practice,
sanctioned by law and approved by tbe
linlvcrsal sense of tbe nation.”
Mr. Seward’s letter is rather verbose,
and in some passages rather highly colors
lire situation of affairs. For instance it is
not true that “the Union is now as strong
c ‘ in Maryland as in any one of the always
loyal Stales” Kor is Ins picture of the
loyalty of Kentucky or Missouri correct.
3le greatly underrates the strength of the
Xeloels when he says that, “ the region
Where the insurrection still remains flagrant
embraces all, or parts of several Stales
With a white population of 4,-100,000.’'
The truth is that tne rebellion in the South
numbers not less than 7.000,000 of white
adherents who are giving it active support.
Mr. Seward’s observations in regard to
lire effect of the war on the slave popula
tion, is infinitely nearer the tnffh than tbe
Statements contained in Lis letters to our
Jlitiistors Adams and Dayton, wherein he
asserted, “ that, whether the rebellion suc
ceeded or failed, the political condition, of
no human being would be changed,” that
Sio slave would be freed by tbe goyern
nvut, and that the peculiar institution
•would be preserved unharmed. He saw
things in a very different light when be

Dr. Brownsoa ou tuc War.
Dr. O. A Brownsou, the eminent Cxtholie
reviewer, addressed an immense crowd in
front of Willard’* hotel ia Washington on
Tuesday night, in response to a serenade.
Among other things, he strongly urged eman
cipation of the slaves of rebels as a war meas
ure, and amply justified under the war power.
Take that course, aud we would strike the
rebels the strongest possible Mow in the weak
est possible place. Take that course, and we
vould command the sympathy and support
of every csvillzt d nation on the globe. He
■was no Mver of negroes, but he insisted on
their equal rights as men. He had opposed
agitation of the slavery question when he
thought that agitation was fraught with dan
gers to the republic. Now he favored it, be
cause it would bring life and safety to the re
public. Tbe trouble which still involved this
question arose from the fact that white nloe
tenths w f the people were slavery-haters, nloo
tvnvbs of them were equally strong uegro
liaU-re. He admitted entertaining some pre
judice* biiUM-lf, aud insisted that in tbe future
disposillan of this question, these prejudices
ought to be regarded; »u t for tbe present,
caumcipation was the important thing. He
agreed v I*b Tbe president in his colooizitlon

SECRETARY SEWARD'S LAST BOUT WITH

We commend to our readers the following
further correspondence relating to the civil
war in the United Stales of North America,
?u Wished as a parliamentaiy paper yesterday.
t is, we think, one of the most interesting
specimens of official literature it has ever
been our lot to read. The prospect of suc
cess which in May last dawned upon the fed

Mr. Seward’s dispatch, whereas the stern
logic of events lends increased causticity to

MB. SEWARD TO MR. ADAMS.
Washington, May 2S, 1852.
Sir: Tour dispatch of the Bth of May
has been received.
There is a statement in the public jour
nals that thirty vessels which left British ports
with a common design to run our blockade,
have gathered at Nassau, and that they arc
now remaining there awaiting the relaxation
of the blockade at some of tue southern ports
which the president has permitted to take
place on the Ist of June, preferring to avail
themsclve of that lawful privilege rather than
persevere in their prohibited operations. I
think, therefore, we may congratulate our
selves upon having advanced to a new stage in
our intercourse with maritime powers adhering
the present troubles in th« United States, a
stage at which motives of sympathy in foreign
countries with the insurgents, derived from
the pasture of the blockade, will disappear.
This stage is also marked by another im
prove menT of the case—namely, the with
drawal from the ocean of the pirates who have
occasionally sought shelter and protection in
friendly ports while committing depredations
on American commerce.
Under the president’s Instructions I de
sire to improve the position thus obtained,
to confer, if our representatives abroad shall
think it discreet with the friendly aa’ioas up
on thepiospectß of the war and their future
course In regard to it.
By way ot introduction, I b r -g to recall to
your recollection the facts that at the earliest
proper moment I set forth most dis ioctiy the
opinions of this government that the run'ail
interests, present and permanent, of all in iri
liiiie nations, including this country, require
the preservation of harmonious relations nc
tvvten them, and that the same iutemts
demand that, so far as possible, peace shall
prevail throughout the world, and especially
in tie United Stales aad upon the American
contin-nt.
In ot these views, I set forth
the opinion that the industrial systems of
■\Vestem Europe and the United States, in
cluding their agriculture, manuhwiurcs* and
commerce, are, in some respects, to be re-
garded less as distinct national systems ih in
as one general combination of agricultural,
mar.uluciuring and commercial agencies, in
which ajar in one country necessarily produ
ces disturbance in all others, so that a serious
disorganization of the machinery employed in
production here cannot tail to result in de-
rangement, probably in disaster, everywhere
abroad.
There are now some painful evidences that
these speculations were not unsound. Taere
Ib distress among the peasantry’ oi Ireland, in
tbe manufacturing towns of Belgium, aud the
wine-presses and silk looms in some parts of
France, seeming to becomingto a dead stand.
All the sufferers—and I will not stop to inquire
how justly—trace their misfortunes to the
civil war of the United States. It is manifest
that what the European nations want is an
end of that war as speedy, and leaving the in
dusuial system of this country as little dis
organized as possible. It would seem impos
sible for any considerate person to doubt that
this is the very consummation which the gov
ernment of the United States must want even
more then it can be desired by the European
States. This government has expressed that
want earnestly, decidedly, sometimes, per
haps, even impaUently. Nevertheless, tUe
war has continued a whole year, agiinst the
wishes of Europe as well as of America. A
new campaign is even beginning. In order to
determine whether It is likely to reach the de
sired end, it will not be unprolrable to con
sider the causes of its prolongation to the
present period. This government at the be
ginning assumed, and it has constantly insist
cd, that the Union could, must, andshouid
be preserved. On the other baud, the Eu
rnpean* nations, when they saw the storm
burst np*cn the country, either doubted, or
actually disbelieved tne possibility of that
great salvation. Europe bad but a subordi
nate rnd indirect interest in the 'Treat prob
lem, and it supposed that if the United States
could be only convinced that the Union
Cur’d not in tbe end be preserved, they
would at or.ee forego the contest, and consent
to a national dkst lutjon, which it w.i* erro
naously thought would bit followed by prac*,
while we knew That it wc-nM c*n!y i;j the be
ginning cl endless war. Thus European o:-b
--ion has practically favored the insurgent 3,
and eneouiagcd them wish ephemeral sym
pathies- and unreal expectations o: foreign ia
t< neutiep, ami ha? ihu&pr .-traded the war to
the present tune.
Ce’tairly ibis government aud the Atneri-
can i tuple arc even more confident of the
prrprrvaMon of iheUuioiinowthm they were
tberef«>r»*, even 1-
a year ago, and r-r;
now than they were then to accept peace,
with the Inconceivable pains aud perils of dis
solu’ion. Can bfbc p.e.-umpiuous, then, for
us to rsk Enrcpc.au statesmen lo in
tlu light cl'the events of the v;ar, the opiaiou
which they formed at so eurly a stage of P,
that the opinion it elf might, perhaps, prop
erly he deemed a pr-judice?
Of course, in torch a review-the observer
would not overlook the contrast net ween vim
position which the federal government held a
x«-arago and the presen* situation. Tucn it
had been pradically expellrd, with :vll its au
thorities. < Ivil, mi:i»ary, and naval, from every
S’ate south of tbe I’otomac, Oaio, and Mis
souri Kivors, while it was held in close siege
in this cs'piud, cut oil from communication
with tvtn tbe Spates which had remained
loyal. Now.lt has virtually retaken all the
positions it so early lost on the seaboard; it
possesses the Mls-issippi, and all the other
great'natural highways, and has forced the
insurgents to ba'tlc in tbe most inaccessible
par! of the insurrectionary district. The
l-.rcts aud the resources ot the government
are unexhausted and incrcasingf Those of
the are diminished, and becoming
nearly exhausted.
No one, ebh-rhcrc or in Europe, now con
tests these simple fads. The only argument
opposed to them is that the insurgents have
determined not to acknowledge the authority
of tbe Union. The evidence of tin* a certain
m solute and defiant lone maintained by their
organ.
Certainly, folorg as the insurgent* have
any hope of u-turnt; 1 success thvy’cv.ubi oo ?
he expecUd to discourse o’htrwi.e tiun in
just suvli a tone, nor will they fill to cher:*n
siuh a hope, so lore: as they littd \ *Miugc<-*s
'a meet it wrh sympathy in Europe. ' i;ic
very I:.si advices which o uae tnC quir
ttr previous to the arrival there of th-* new*
of the fad New Orleans and Xorl ilk were
IVllor fpcvula'locs about soui- noviy con
ceived form of intervention.
But it must be remembered tbit the in«nr
gi i t* are ir.er, and that they may rev-onabiy
h -expected to ppcak and act like otVr bcl
liueient factious under similar cocdi ious.
S ■, also, beingmen, and subject to thel.w*
w loch determine the economy ot socle'v, they
must in all t-a.-es conform themselves, ho .v v *ver
unwillingly, -to the circumstances by wlii-ffi
Uey arc’ surrounded. They e.mco:, more
I? an o’ her masses of men, determine for them*
.M-hrs, u* der one estate of eircumstaucis,
wl;: t they will do und.r a different out. A
"■titer upon war advises brave, men never to
nail their colors to the stall, rein irking that if
they shall be able, and find it desirable, they
maintain it there without nailing, while it will
be more converu iit to lower It if they shall
find themselves unable or no longer desirous
to keep it flying. But, speiking practically,
what has been the result thus farm the pra
nnlcase? Has disloyalty been fmnd an in
domitable sentiment in this war; It pervaded
even this capita! and this district at the begin
-srg of the strife. It no longer exist-: here. It
divided Maryland, and provoked conflict there,
ihe Union is now as strong in that State as
in any one of the always loyal Spates. (This
is untrue.) It committed Missouri to the pre
itndcd new confederacy. Missouri is now
active and earnest among the loyal States. It
placrd Kentucky in an attitude of neutrality;
but Kentucky is to-day firm, resolute, and
even self-devoted to the Union. (Doubtful.)
In other ngions where disloyally was
n ore general, t-uch as Eastern' Virginia,
Tennessee, and Louisiana, and North
Carolina, acquiescence under the federal
authorities has promptly followed their
rpjKarance tin re, and the preliminary s'eps
arc taken for the restoration of the la »s of the
Union. It is a simple fact that loyaltv reap
pears everywhere just so fast as the success of
the government U deemed sufficient to afford
o guaranty for reliance upon its protection.
[Hus this been so in Missouri or Keutucdj ?]
The ditunioniets, even in their strongest
bolds, are not a people, but only a faction,
surpassing the loyal in numbers, and silenc
iigthtm by terrors and severities in many
pieces, but nevertheless too few and feeble to
prevent the return of any district r.r any State
to the Union, in the presence and under the
protection of the federal authorities.
The president asks foreign nations to coa-
aider that-we are only at the end of one year
cow, and yet the ■whole effective mass of the
insurrectionary region has been brought into
the field by conscription- The credit of the
revolution ie dead before the first dollar has
been raised by taxation to support it, and the
territory which must bear taxation is at once
reduced to its narrowest limits, and is ex
hausted of its wealth and supplies.
The power of a losing faction under any cir
cumstances must continually grow less. Bat
that of the disunioniets is abating under the
operation of a cause peculiar to themselves,
which it is now my duty to bring forward—l
mean the practice of African slavery.
I sm aware that in regard to this point lam
opening a subject which was early interdicted
in this correspondence. The reason for the
interdiction, and the reason for a departure
from it ere, however, equally obvious. It
was properly left out of view, bo long as
might be reasonably hoped that by the prac
tice of magnanimity this government might
cover that weakness of the insurgents with
out encouraging them to persevere in their
treasonable conspiracy against the Union.
Thfj have protracted the war ayear, notwith
standing this forbearance of the government,
and yet they persist iu invoking foreign arms
to end a domestic strife, while they have
forced slavery into such prominence that it
cm not be overlooked.
'J le region where the insurrection still re
mains flagrant, embraces all or parts of sev
eral States, with a white population of 4,500,-
000, (7,000,000 would be nearer the truth,) and
a negro population of 3,500,000, chiefly slaves.
It is thus seen to he a war between two par
ties of the white race, not only in the pres
ence but in the very midst of the enslaved
negro race.
It is notorious—we could not conceal the
fact if we would—that the dispute between
them arose out of a question iu which the ne
gro race have a deep and lasting interest, and
that their sympathies, wishes and interests
naturally, necessarily, inevitably fall on the
side of the Union. Such a civil war between
two parties of the white race, In such a place
and under such circumstances, could not be
expected to continue long before the negro race
would begin to manifest some sensibility and
some excitement. Wo have arrived at that
stage already. Everywhere the American
general receives his most useful and reliable
information from the negroe, who halls his
coming as a harbinger of freedom. Wherever
national army advances into the insurrection*
ary region, African bondmen escapihg from
their insurrectionary masters, come
out to meet it, and oiler their service and U-
bor in whatever capacity they may be desired.
So many of these bondsmen have, evea with
out the invitation,and otten against theoppa
siiion of the federal military and naval author
ities, made their way from bondage among the
Insurgents to freedom among the loyalists,
that the government finds itself occupied with
the consideration of measures to provide them
with domiciles at home or abroad. If the war
should continue indefinitely, every slave will
b* come, not only a Iree man, but an absentee.
If the insurgents shall resist their escape, how
could they hope prevent the civil warthey have
inaugurated xrom degenerating into a servile
war? True, a servile population, especially
one so long enslaved as the Africans, ia the
insurrectionary States, require time and trial
b< fi re they can organize a servile war; but if
the war continues indefinitely, a servile war is
only a question of time. The problem, then,
is, whether the strife shall be left to go on to
that point. The government, animated by a
just regard for the general welfare, including
that of Ibe insurrectionary States, adopts a
rniicy designed at once to save the Union
ur.d rescue society frem that fearful
cn’rstrophe, while it consults the ultimate
peaceful relief of the nation from slavery
c.--ni:ot he necessary to prove to any enlight
ened statesman that the'Jabor of the African
in the insurrectionary region is at present ia
dispensaoic as a resource ot the insurgents for
c-‘ ntinuing the war, nor is it now necessary to
show that this same labor is the basis of the
whole Industrial system existing in that re
c> cion. The war is thus seen to be producing
already a disorganization of the in
vustrbl system of the insurrectionary
States, am! tending to a subversion of even
their social system. Let it next be considered
that rue European systems of industry are
largely based upon the African slave labor of
The insurrectionary States employed in the
production of cotton, tobacco, and rice, and
on the free labor of the other States employed
in producing cereals, out of which combined
productions arises the demand for European
productions, materials, and fabrics. The dis
organization of Industry, which is already re
vealing itself in the insurrectionary States,
cannot but impair their ability to prosecute
the war, and at the same time result indirect
ly in greater distress in Europe.
* On the other baud, this disorganization op
erates far less injuriously at present to tbe
f« deral government audio the loyal States.
Every African laborer who escapes from his
service is not only lost to the support of the
insurrection, but he brings an accession to
Ibe productive labor of the loyal Slates, and
to that extent increases their ability to con
tinue the contest iu which they are reluctant
ly engaged. The failure of foreign importa
tion as heretofore in return for the exporta
tion of southern staples stimulates the manu
facturing industry of the loyal states. linmi
: gratjor.ds accelerated by an activity in these
St a* es resulting from extended manufacture
and the prosecution of the war.
Thus has the phenomenon appeared, disap
pointing so many prophecies in Europe, that
the war impoverishes and exhausts only
the insurrection and not the Union. I shall
not contend that these effects would be per
petunl. I know there is a reckoning for every
nation that has the misfortune to be involved
In a war, and I do not expect tor the United
States any exemption from that inexorable
law ; but it. is enough lor ray present purpose
that the penalties are neither more immediate
than the loyal states can endure, while bring
ing this unhappy contest to its desired conclu
sion. Let us now suppose that anyone or
more European states should think it right
or expedient to intervene by force to oblige
the United States to accept a compromise 6t
of rhdr sovereignty. Whit other elk-ff. could
it produce than lo render inevitable, and even
Lurry on, that servile war, so dcstracuvo of
all European interest in this country,
which tin* giwi-rmnent so studiously strive*
to avoid? ' I brow that the danger of any
lordan nation at’emplieg such a policy, if
It had ever existed, had p »ssed, as I am happy
:u knowing that, no foreign government n-ts
ever tbreatem d such intervention, while sev
eral ui:«go:oiinioii? govcniHieats have repudi
ated all nutrii-udly designs. I have pat for
ward that hypothesis only by way of prefice
to a qufstn-n not less significant—namely,
what must be the effect of such a policy
abroad as wid eneoursgo the insurgents with
hopes of mtcrveutiou wmch is never to occur?
Is not that effect visible in the obstinacy of
The insurgents, in their destruction of the
cotton and tobacco already cultivated, and
ii ible to be brougnl into commerce ny tb • re
turn oi pcsce, and in their studied neglect of
their planting of the seed ot their staples,
and turning so much of the African labor as
they are abb* to save int© the production ot
r applies of provi -lons and torage, to enable
them to continue the war?
The effect will be farther developed as time
goes on, In opening the way for thil servile
*sr, which if i* shill be permitted to cone,
will produce infinite sufferiag-throagiioul the
world, and can only at last result ia an cn
thely now system of trade and commerce be
tween the United Slates and foreign nations.
I need not say that these views are not
grounded or. any*proceedings or expressions
f 1 tie British government, and are to be sub
mitted to them only, as they will be to other
states, from a strong desire on the part of the
president that, the true condition uf thi pres

abAT-doncd. “ :
Ttcse events have been accompanied bv

and, wiih the proclamations of Gea. Butlerat i

Ti.c approach of a servile war, so much in
sisted on by Mr. Reward in hU dispatch, only
forewarns ns that another element ot destruc
tion may be added to the l<*ss of property and
waste of industry which already afflicts a
country so lately prosperous and tranquil.
Nor on the other point to which I have ad
verted, have I anything new to say. From
tee moment that intelligence first reached this
country that nine States and several millions
of inhabitants of the great American Union,
had seceded, and had made war on the gov

present time, her majesty’s government have

THE GUERILLA UPRISING Iff
EEHTUOKT.
FROM MEMPHIS,
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
Memphis, August 20, via Caibo the 23th.
Gen. Hindman some time since applied to
the confederate government for arms for the
use of conscripts whom he had gathered
together. 7,000 stand of arms were immedi
ately slipped to him from Richmond. They
were being transported via Yazoo River on
the transport Fair Play, and had gone as
far as Gaines’ Landing, where the boat lay
with lights ont, waiting for the hands to un
load her, when cur gunboat Benton, on the
way down the river from Helena, discovered
and captured ter. This, with the six guns
previously taken near Vicksburg, will make
a good haul of rebel arms for the use of Ar
kansas federals and our own new soldiers.
The rebel newspapers state that General
Cooper, AdjL General, has ordered, the con
federate troops to ascertain the truth or falsi
ty of the report that Colonel 6. H. Fitch had
put to death citizens of Arkansas, as reported,
upon the ground that one of the invading
army bad been shot down by some residents
unknown. If found true, officers of Fitch’s
command are to be set apart and imprisoned,
equal in numbers to those executed, and await
oiders of President Davis for execution.
Fitch himself, if captured, is to be treated as
a common felon and placed in confinement
until further orders.
News of the evacuation of Fort DoneUon
and capture of Clarksville is received here
with great satisfaction by rebel citizens. They
gather ingroups, stand at street corners, aad
eagerly bruy up all the stray copies of the
Chicago Times, after which they retire to some
place where they can read and gloatover what
they consider “ returning symptoms of life ”
in the dying confederacy. The secession ele
ment and the Times go as naturally together
as birds of a feather.
The rumored capture of A. C. Denson and
bis 300 men, going to Nashville, has turned
out happily but a rumor. They arrived safe,
and reported to Governor Johnson.
Tbe late provost marshal of Memphis, un
der rebel rule, L. D. McKissick, died last
week in the State of Mississippi, after a very
short illness. His death will not be very gen
erally regretted.
TIIE SITUATION NEAR CUMBER LEND GAP.
Louisville, Aug. 23.—The Democrat's cor
respondent has just arrived from Cumberland
Gap on the evening of tbe 33d, and reports
tbe federal troops in excellent health and
spirits, and eager for a light. They hive an
abundance of provisions for sixty days. Every
few days our troops send out a foraging party,
sometimes consisting of a hundred wagons,
into Powell’s Valley,”Tenn., which invariably
return loaded, the foragers always driving
away whatever rebels they meet. This cor
respondent says the federals can hold the Gap
against any force. The rebels don’t mem to
attack, but thick they can starve the federals
out. The number of rebels this side of the
Gap is estimated from 20,000 to 30,000. They
are trying to get into Sandy Valley to join
Cerro Gordo Williams.
On Friday last, Col. Gamrd, withs6o of hia
(Mundy’s) regiment, went on an expedition
to ascertain the position of the enemy and
force his way through their lines to join Nel
son. He had one brush with Stearns’ cavalry
on the route, and succeeded in his expedi
tion. At Htdbird Creek, on Monday, Gar*
rard met 150 ef Stearns’ cavalry, killing three
and mortally wounding two, when the re
mainder scattered at lull speed. One. mm of
Mundy’s cavalry was killed; no other federal
lose.

Official Report of Gen Blunt's Cant

Missouri.
Leavenworth, August 27, 1562.
To Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War:
Maj. Champion Vaughn, of Gen. Blunt’s
stall', has arrived at these headquarters with
dispatches. Gen. Blunt marched with 1.500
men from Fort Scot#’, August 17fh. and fol
lowed the rebels as for north as Lone Jack.
The enemy declined au engagement aud
commencea a retreat. They were hotly pur
sued by Gen. Blunt and driven in confusion
across the Osage, with the loss of all trans
portation and equipments, besides numerous
arms, prisoners, Ccc. It is considered that
the expedition saved the Missouri towns on
the western border, besides striking terror
into the hearts of the enemy as far as the
Atkansas line. Gen. Blunt’s column retnro
to Fort Scott on the 22d, having marched
marly SCO miles in six days. Col. Cloud was
left to continue the pursuit, and it is not im
probable that the main force of the rebels
will be forced to surrender.

BBOWNSOY OX THE WAR,
A More Energetic and Radical Prac-
tice Oemauded*
Washington, August 27,1532.
Dr. 0. A. Brownson was serenaded to-night
at Willard’s Hotel, and responded in a speech
of great force and intent, which was frequently
and enthusiastically applauded by the large
concourse. HU chief points were that eman
cipation is a war measure and colonization a
peace measure, and that so long as the war is
conducted as in the past and the present, the
contest is unequal. That the draft is a ne
cessity as an evidence of the power of the
government, and won’t he submitted to as an
exhibition of nationality. That timid cowards
area weakness, fie said he did not appear
before his hearers either as an Abolitionist or
an anti-AboliSionist, but ns an American citi
zen. He loved this country as hU country,
aud wished to die when the nu'ion died.
He was against letting the rebels have the
advantage of the labor of 4,000.000 of slaves
to till their soil and raise tbelr various pro
ducts, while the misters were engaged in the
destruction of this government. Wuat he
desired was to take these slaves from them,
thus compelling them to go home and attend
to tbrir own plantations.
He cared not whether these slaves rendered
us positive service or not. He wanted tue
rebels deprived of their assistance. He knew
there was great hesitancy about it, aud peo
ple talked of the constitution and the horrors
of San Domingo. When the agitation of the
question of slavery threatened the Union of
these Stales, he opposed it ; but sow, when
the Union was threatened from slavery, and
slavery was the main support of its and
as it was Impossible to preserve both Union
and slavery, he said down wirh slavery. [Loud
applause.]
Let every slave go tree, but let the Union
be saved. Unless the government was pre
pared to say this, the dangers which threaten-
Ed 116 would uut be diminished. Tac first gun
fired at Sumter knocked off the fetters of
c-voiy slave in this land.
Slavery was doomed, and, therefore, as au
ami-slavery man, he felt little interest in it.
What he wanted was liberty with Union, and
Union with liberty. There were two ques
tions beloie the public, the slavery ijuestion
ami the nigger question.
On the slavery question nine-tenths of the
people of the whole Union were anti-slavery;
but on the nigger question about nine-tenths
were anti-nigger, and the great difficulty in
this question was that whenever the freedom
of llie slaves was spoken of, a ho»t of petti
loggors crying out, “You are going to have
nigger equality.” ** Do you mein to give the
negro an equal footing with the white livm
and have them live side by eideV”
For Limself he did not profess to be any
great niggtr lover. He believed the negro to
be a man sprang from the same race as him
self, having the same natural rights, but he
wus not willing that he should hive the same
social, political, and civil rights in the same
community with himself
He did not wish that, nor did he think it
would follow from their emancipation. He
desired the two races to be separated. Tie
favored the coloniz itioa scheme of the Presi
dent. The only point wherein he differed
with him was that he did not make eanticipa
tion depend on colonization.
He demanded emancipation as a war meas
ure, as a preventive o? future rebellions. Col-
onizatiou would answer in rime of peace, when
the war was over. He heir iiy appr >ved of
ibe draft, which he regarded as the highest
evidence of the narioaal majesty.
He wanted thorough-going men, men of
t-x»reme view s, to be placed at the head of
our civil and military affairs Conservative
men, who had lived for and by the p.ist among
the tombs, were not the men for this great
occasion.
Ho would no‘ criticise or complain of the
administration; but this was no time for hesi
tation or delay. Timid measures were trea-on
iu'W. It was bold, active, decided men—men
with nerve enough, and wisdom enough and
courage enougn to neglect precedents .and
forms'aud all the past, and with decided baud
reach torth to giosp the future—that we want
• d in the presidential chair, in the national
councils, and for generals iu the field. This
rss no time for conservatives—men who had
no eyes save in the backs of thtir heads. Oae
of the best measures yet taken was the dr.fft.
He regretted to see some sections, and even
st me governors, remonstrating against it
and trying to avoid it as a disgrace.
It was not a disgrace, but the highest possible
assertion of toe national dignity’, and of the
obligations citizens owe the government. By
carry Lng ou the war in this volunteering sys
tem wiTh td been recognizing the very doctrine
of ultra States rights which we were fighting
to destroy; but the draft was the assertion of
the national power, e-diing equally upon all
the citizens who enjoyed ifs blessings to con
tribute their share for its defense; and he rc
irardtd the necessity for the draft as a
nrent national blessing. All history and
philosophy tanirht that no men ' truly
loved their country who had rot suffered and
made sacrifices for it. Patriotism, would feed
ami grow on these sufferings and sacrifices,
and we should come out of the contest a
purer, better and happier people.
Ibe eminent speaker was almost cor/inually
interrupted with applause, which was uproar-
.usly redoubled at every allusion to emanci-
pation, or the necessity lor the strongest and
most \igorcu-: measures. The temp.-r of the
undknee iu this regard was peculiar:/ siguli-

(From the Madison ('Vis.) Journal, 2Tth ]
The Jollowing ieit* r from Lieu’. Widvey,
who was taken prisoner at the baule of C :dir
Mountain, was received last evening by Mr.
K. J. Fifischer ol this city. It will be read
with pidu.’ul interest, and is calculated to in
tensity the hatred with which ail loyal men
regard the leaders of the present most wicked
and diabolical rebellion;
KicirxoN'D. Va., August 16, 1563.
Deak Fuiend: I am where least of any
place on earth I would be, in a Southern pris
on. The place is a most horrible one. Tae
place wherein we are is thirty-five by fif*y test,
and contains 146 prisoners, tbirty-sis of whom
are officers, including Gen. Prince. It is dark
and filthy beyond description. We sleep oa
the damp, dirty floor, without blankets or
bedding of ar.y kind. Our food is bread and
fresh beef, irithout salt. We get only hall ra
tions, and are excluded from buying anything
outside. We are deprived of water, except
what is drawn from the filthy James River,
which is as warm as if heated over a fire. You
have no idea how shamefully we are treated,
the balance ot the 146 are men of all classes
—generally ol the very lowest, being team
g?crs and camp followers. In the room is the
priw, which stinks awfully, as do the men
trein sweat and filth. We are allowed no lib
erties, not even looking outside the window.
TLu way I was taken was this: Oa the af
ternoon of Saturday, the 9th Inst., the battle
commerced. Col. Roger, with six companies
atd the Lieut. CoL and Major moved out as
skirmishers, leaving me with the three re
making ccmpanies in reserve. Assoonasthe
engagement between the Infantry began, Gen.
Gordon ordered me with those companies to
take place in the line between the 2d Mis?.,
at-d the 27th Ind., which I did, and then or
dered me to charge a hill, which I did and
took it, but was repulsed—charged again and
btld it, and then moved on upon the enemy,
who fell thick and last before us. We were
repulsed twice, and as often did I rally the
troops, until after charging the third time, we
were attacked on onr right flank, when a
change of front on purpart became necessary,
which was done in double quick, la execut
ing this rnovement, as bad luck would have
it, my right foot became entangled in some
young ctdflx busbee, and I fell down. X rose
again and tried to extricate myself which I did,
but just too late to escape the enemy, who
were but five or six rods from me when I felh
The three companies fponred into them the
contents of their musket* 1 , and the enemv re
turned it. Between this double fire 1 stood,
expecting every ball to hit me. If I had not
been exhausted, I should have tried to run.
After thev got bold of me, I thought It would
be perfectly useless. I send the letter by one
who goes Lome from prison. I cannot write
es much as I wish, nor such things as I would
wish, and what is worse, lam afraid tbit I
shall not have another chance to write you,
for the fate of Gen. Pope's officers is consid
ered sealed.
Give my respects to all of your family, and
ask of them, as of all other friends, to remem
ber with kindness and charily. I have in this
war tried to do my duty, and, if the country
need it, we are ali ready to swing rather than
persuade Gta. Pope’to countermand that
order of his. "We can die but once auy way.
Write me, and direct to the regiment.' In
the action I had a separate command, (three
companies) and am ignorant about the casu
alties in the regiment. I must close. Farewell.
Tours, T. J. WiDvsr.
GEN. BULL’S DEPARTMENT,
Remarkable Statements of a Corres-
pondent.
An army correspondent of the Cleveland
(Ohio) Leader, who writes from Stevenson,
Ala., thus delineates the condition of war nut
ters at that point:
adventure with a rebel.
Gen. Buell feels it his religious obligation
to satis ! y the traitors that he is not to hurt
jir-ybory in northern Bahama. One of our
earnest and energetic colonels -was sent from
Tnscumbia to To*n Creek to repair the
bridge the rebel vandal? had burned at that
poin*. Living adjacent is one ot the most un
mitigated rebels in all the South—lsaac Win
ston, jr. He had over 1,000 bushels of corn,
together -with cattle and cotton; when asked
to sell us some corn, he replied, “No; before
thee u Lincoln Yankees should have one
ear of my corn or anything tLe, I would
burn it.” Whereupon r.tuTcolonel sent his
quartermaster and took some corn, otf-riag
him a government voucher, which be indisp
nanily spurned, but said: “It the Southern
army were Cere they should hive my corn and
cattle. I want you to under.-tand that I am
J our eneray to-day and will ligh* yon ro-mor
iow.” He then wrote a-note~back to the col
onel commanding, ashing him how long he
would give him to bum and destroy his prop
erty, whereupon the colonel wrote him that
be was a “d—d traitor, and must be insane or
a most wicked rebel. If the former, he hid
bis sympathy; if the latter then he ought to
be hanged.”
He n fused to let our men have the bl tek
emith’s tools at his shop, and when they had
gone and taken possession of the shop during
the cay, that night he seat his slaves aud took
the tools oiflifteen miles. The colonel then
ordered his arrest. For these things, this
some man, Isaac Winston, jr., writes to Gen.
Buell, at Huntsville, as to au old friend, with
apparent perfect confidence, asking him.
whether he approves such conduct! in a fed
eral officer, in the letter acknowledging that
he is a rebel, and asks him whether his sense
ol honor would compel him to sell his prop
erty to Lis eaeiie&'r On a letter so ilagrant
Gin. Buell atks an explanation.
RELUCTANT ENFORCEMENT OF THE CONFISCA-
Reluctantly the pro-slavery officers of the
army carry out the designs of the confiscation
law. To build the fortifications at this place
the commanding officer sent out parties to
press the slaves'ct rebel owners into the ser
vice. But the orders emanating from head
quarters strictly enjoined that receipts should
be given for the indiscriminate return of th-jse
persons pressed into the service, thereby as
suming to decide the validity of claims to the
slave, which is manifestly a violation of the
last clause of the tenth section ot the confis
cation bill, which roads: “aud no person en
gaged lu the military or naval service of the
United States shall, under any pretence what
ever, assume to decide on the validity of the
claim of any person to the service or labor of
any person, or surrender up any person to the
claimant, onpilnof beinj dismissed from the
service.”
Four hundred “contrabands” of all colors
arc now employed upon the public fortifica
tions here, and a happier, more willing set of
men never wielded tpide or axe. It would
be merciless cruelty to send these noble fel
lows back to whips and chains. God grant
fiat the Administration may perceive the
truth that loyal black men are good enough t >
kill disloyal white rebel traitors, aud suffer
them to fight for their own liberty and the
salvation ol the republic.
A WHITE “CONTRABAND.”
Among the *• contrabands ” was found one
white man, sixty-three years old, of pare An
glo-Saxon bloou, without any African taint,
wh,o has been a slave lor sixty-three years.
Refired in the slave-pens of Virginia, donbt
lesf the child of misfortune, but taonglit to
be tnore valuable for the l ' shinnies ” mm to
41 strangle, n he his been herded with the ne
groes, compelled to live a lie for more than
threescore veers. Whafa field of anguish is
open to the imagination? We immediately
dt spatched him norih on the oV'.Tgroaad rail
road to Governor >Ior f ou ot ladimi, to show
vlut are the specimens o: the system tbit no «r
defies the government.
A system that denies marriage, shuts oat
knowledge, chattels ,•« humanity, should be
sanctioned by none up 1 sc. uted by alt.
INCIDENTS AT THE TUIAL OF TntCimf.
When the Coined asked that the men, be
fore he would tiive teem protection, should
lake the oath of allegi mce, or sign a pledge
to inform on the gu-.nlla bridge-burners, his
judges said, ‘*My God. would you hive these
men turn informers against their own sous,
brothers and fathers:-'’’
uesult or lfell’s conciliation i-olict.
Arid tor refusing to protect these rascals,
Gen. Buell, on b’s way to ChuUaaccza, bc
• ,une suddenly nf.ii.--ed with the “ concil
iates,” and. bonified at the stern rule ot f ur
chin, under General Mitchel, he was persua
ded to stop on his way to Chattanooga and
Huntsville (the place that ought to hav<* been
captured in ten days after the evaemti *a of
Corinth), ana make an effort, through th.* te
cions forms ot a cou't-ra.arria:. to satisfy the
rebel citizens of northern Alabama that It is
rot the design of the United States govern
ment to bnrt'auybody.
In the meantime the rebels took advantage
of his halt to interpose 20,(ah) men between
him and Chattanooga, and despatch
bodies of cavalry to harrass the scattered dl
visions of his army, and cut off if s conmuT,-
ration with Nashville; also, sundered several
limes his communication with Corinth. H;s
advance Majors-General McCook’s and Crit
tenden’s divisions, reaching Battle Creek,
twenty-eight miles from Cnattanooga, were
compelled to halt, and there the troops have
: ten laying tor live weeks, doing nothing, nr
ii-xt to nothing. la short, Bad 1 , with 4b OA)
ukn, now 'doing just what Gau. MUcnel
did with 4,0(0— occupying northern Aia
