How clear rings the bugle, how bold beats the

Our “Beady I" rings dear; our hearts bolder beat;

For country, for honor, rejoicing we go.
How watekfol, how. eager we waited for this,
'ln terror lest all were betrayed with a kiss!
Yet, weary in cabin or toiling in field, •
The sweet hope of Freedom we never would yield;
But steadfast we trusted, through sorest delay,
That the beam on our night was the dawning of

'Tis dawning! 'ds morning! the hills are o*owl

Beneath it what rapture the ramparts to scale I
or, true to our leaner, o'er mountain, through hol

The cane yields its sugar; the orange its gold;

TUB REGENERATION OF
TUE NATION.
Speech of JEon. I. N. Arnold, Delivered
In Congress, Jan. 0, 1804.
Mr. Chairman, In June, 1857, a compara
tively unknown man nttered in tho State.
Bouse, at Springfield, BL, a sentiment which
is already historical. Its philosophy, its pro
found sagacity, its prophetic prescience, its
unparalleled boldness and honesty, were
characteristic of the man, who, then obscure,
has become already, to-day, tho foremost
character in American history. The sentiment
was this:
“ A house divided against itself cannot stand. I
believe that this Government cannot permanently
exist half slave and half free. Ido not expect the
Union to be dissolved; Ido not expect the house
to fall; bat 1 expect it will cease to dc divided."
This, the first emphatic enunciation of the
philosophical fact of the antagonism between
liberty and slavery, the eternal and “Irre
pressible” conflict between them, electrified
the country, and made Abraham Lincoln
President of the United States.
The moment the fact is recognized that lib
erty and slavery are antagonistic, and that
there can be no peace between them—that
our country, all of U, must pass into the dark
night of slavery, or all of it emerge into the
dear light of freedom-all loyal, patriotic
men become at once anti-slavery men, aboli
tionists.
Such I avow myself here, to-day,and I shall
deem it a proud distinction if X can merit the ,
name by aiding in bringing about the entire.*
abolition of slavery in my suffering country. *
And os, when in the palmy days of the Bo
man republic, the people dune to fed, by an
instinctive conviction, that Carthage must be
destroyed that Borne might live, so, to-day.
the American people fed that slavery must
die that liberty and the Union may live.
“ Dch-u da a>t Carthago" became then the mot
to of every loyal, patriotic Roman. “ Down
with slavery” is becoming the motto of every
loyal, patriotic American.
As Roman constancy, courage, and persist
ence finally triumphed over Carthage, so will
American constancy, courage, and determina
tion triumph over slavery. * * *
The Bon. gentleman then traced the pro
gress of liberty since its dawn among the
early Saxon&i-its triumph on the fidd of Run
nymede, its straggles through the reigns of
the Benry’s and Edwards’, its fierce and
bloody encounter with the first Charles, until
Lord Mansfield dcctrified the Island of Great
Britain, and the world, that “ slaves cannot
breathe in England.”
When, in 1858, Abraham Lincoln' uttered
►the philosophic truth that freedom and sla
very could not permanently exist together—
that our country would become all five or
all slave —be did not anticipate any but a
moral conflict. The weapons by which he
expected freedom to triumph were the wea
pons of truth and free discussion. Free
speech, a free press, reason, the ‘schoolmas
ter, the sermon, the lecture, the printing
press, the telegraph, the ballot: these were
the agencies, the weapons, by which the bat
tle was to be fought. It was with the ballot,
and not with bullets, the victory was expect
ed to be won. The victory was won by these
Ecaccful agencies in the election of Abraham
incoln as President. Slavery, conscious
that it could not stand free discussion, that
U must be destroyed If free speech and a free
fircss were tolerated, appealed from the bal
ot-box to the sword, and brought - upon the
country this terrible war
THE
SLAVERY MUST DEC BY THE LAWS OP WAR.
Slavery having plunged tbe nation into this
war, it Is fit that it should die by the laws of
war. Slavery stands before tbe world to-day
guilty of all the calamities of our country.
Every dollar expended, every suffering en
dured, every drop of blood spilled, every
wound and every death, on every battle-field
and in every hospital, is the price we pay for
the existence and toleration of American
slavery.
Itis to-day a rebel and a traitor; Let ns
declare it an outlaw under our Constitution
and laws.
There has never been a day since our exist
ence as a nation when slavery was loyal to
the Constitution and the Union. Now an
open enemy, striking at tbe heart of the Re
public, it bas always been a plotting,stealthy,
secret traitor, undermining the Constitu
tion, and sapping the foundations of our lib
erties.
Mr. Arnold rehearsed the ’ indictments
against slavery, in which he declared that all
hlstoty teaches that ignorance, vice, pauper
ism and barbarism arc the natural results ol
the dcgredatlon of labor.
SLATEBT BECAME MASTER OF OUR OOTERK-
Slavciy having in an unfortunate moment
been tolerated by tbe framers of our Consti
tution, under tbe mistaken belief that It
would be bnt a temporary evil, soon aspired
to and became the znastcrof tbe Government.
Having intrenched itself in the very citadel
of political power, conscious of its inherent
weakness, it demanded additional territory
for its expansion; first Louisiana, then Flor
ida, then Texas. These territories, vast
enough for an empire, haying been secured,
slavery then demanded the repeal of the Mis
souri line, that she might carry her curse
North as well as South and West. * * * *
Up to this period of the struggle- the career
of the slaveholders in their lust of domina
tion had met with no serions check. Slavery
was absolute on the bench of tbe Supreme
Court; it dictated in the national councils;
it furnished the Presidents, or desig
nated the most base, subservient tool
it could purchase among its Northern
sycophants to occupy the Executive Man
sion. It was a ruler in the Halls of Congress.
The Army and the Navy, with West Point
and the Naval School os its nurseries—the
training from which yet lingers—were Its
right andjefl hand to cany out its purposes.
The national treasure, collected in large pro
portion to the North, was expended mainly
at the South and to all the pockets of slave
holders. The qualifications for your repre
senatives abroad were fealty lo slavery.
Every new Territory was filled with the min
ions of Uiis slave power, and was as regular
ly trained up to tbe interests of slavery as
the protege* of Jefferson Davis in military
life were trained to bis wllL
The slaveholder held the parse and the
sword; he was the king at the White House,
a ruler here in this Hall, a despot in the Sen
ate, and everywhere a tyrant*
. Such was thc.position of the slaveholder in
1858. • '
SLAVERY nln REVOLUTIONIZED THE -GOV
ERNMENT AND DESTROYED THE PRINCI-
Meanwhile' slavery had revolutionized the
Government. The great principles of Magna
Charta and the Decoration of Independence
had ceased' to have practical .existence in a
large part of the Union. Liberty of speech,
freedom of the press, and trial by jury had
disappeared in the slave States. Indeed, that
portion of the so-called Republic hod ceased
to be a government of law, and had become
a government of a tyrannic, cruel oligarchy,
more odious, despicable, cruel than any on
earth. There was no redress for any outrage,
however cruel, if perpetrated in behalf ana
at the behest of slavery. The vengeance of
the slaveholder against the man who spoke
or published in behalf of liberty was sharp,
speedy, and unrelenting. The bowie-knife
and the bludgeon, the baiter, and even the
stake, were the Instruments of violence and
torture resorted, to by every petty lynch
judge who found tiny hold enough to question
the divinity of the “peculiar institution.” In
the slave States of this Union a freeman had
no rights which a slaveholder felt bound to
respect In those States the Constitution
had disappeared. I say, then, that slavery
had established a* revolution, overturned a
republican form of government, and estab
lished a despotism In its place. « ♦
Let us pause a moment, Mr. Chairman, and
contemplate the saddest spectacle.of all this
Tv ar Virginia as she is to-day. She was wor
•thy of her early pre-eminence. Her early
history was brilliant Indeed. Washington,
Jefferson, Patrick Henry, Madison and Mar
shall. all men of whom any nation might be
• prond. There is sometlung grand and ma
fistic in the physlcarconformation of the 6ld
Commonwealth. With the Alleghenies and
the Blue Ridge running through her entire
extent, she seems fashioned for the abode of
freemen. When wc remember that her great
est writer penned the Declaration of Inde
pendence and thcOrdinauccof 1787, and that
in a contest between her slaveholders' and
their slaves the Almighty had no attribute
which would take sides with the master; and
when wc look upon her to-day, and see to
what slavery has reduced the proud old Com
monwealth, it is indeed the saddest spectacle
of the war. * * *
In view, then, of all the curses which sla
very has inflicted upon [the‘country, I im
peach American slavery before the American
people and their Congress, and demand whe
ther it shall still live.

the rebels fired upon Fort Sumter; I charge

and Constitution of my country, to erect a
despotism upon its ruins ; 1 charge slavery
with the death of all those who have fallen
in this war. It has dug the half million of
graves for patriots and rebels made by this
war: and those who sleep there would, but
for this cursed institution, to-day be living
In peace and fraternity. '
TOU CAK HATE NO PEACE WHILE SLAVERY EX-
ISTS.
You can have-no permanent peace while
slavery lives. A truce you might have, pos
sibly, until it could recover its power; but
peace, never. Your contest with it is to. the
death. Your Implacable enemy now reels
and staggers. Strike the decisive blow. You
could not if you would, and you ought not
if you could, make terms of compromise with
slavery. You have abolished It at this capi
tal. Yon Lave forever prohibited it In all
your Territories. Your Government has
lnnjga#man for participating in the slave
trade. You have admitted west Virginia
free. Yon have acknowledged the indepen-,
deuce of HaytL You have enlisted, and are
enlisting, African soldiers; they have carried
your banner bravely and triumphantly on
many 1 ard-fought fields. You have pledged
your faith to them, to the world, and to God,
that they shall ho free. You have crowned
the dome of your Capitol with Liberty. At
your call Missouri is throwing off the incu
bus of slavery. Maryland shouts back,
through the ballot-box, her joyous answer
that she, too, is to be free. Delaware, Tenn
essee, Arkansas, Texas, and Louisiana will
notlmgci. Your President, In a proclama
tion of emancipation, which, while it bos
revolutionized the public sentiment and the
action of Europe, has secured victory to onr
aims, has proclaimed liberty and emancipa
tion throughout the territory in rebellion.-
HOW SHALL SLAVERT BE EXTERMINATED ?
First, I reply, in the border States, by the
action ofthe States themselves. This action
will be speedy and decisive.
Second. In • all the tcrritoiy in rebellion,
slavery bas already been. substantially abol
ished by the Proclamation of Emancipa
tion. Confirm by Congress this proclama
tion by Prohibiting its re-establishment, and
abolish It in that port of the rebel States not
Included in the proclamation.
Third. Slavery being thus everywhere abol
ished, amend the .Constitution, prohibiting
its rc-cstablisbmcnt or existence in every
part of tbe United States.
Has Congress tbe power to confirm, sanc
tion, and carry out the Proclamation of
Emancipation, and prohibit slavery in all that
portion of the United. States designated
therein?
WHAT POWER HAS CONGRESS OVER SLAVERY
* IN TIME OP WAR?
1 clslm ihat the Government has the power
In time of -war, as a war measure, to abol
ish slavery wherever and whenever it may
benccesseory to secure the success of the
war.
It is a principle In the interpretation of
statutes and constitutions, familiar to law
yers, that, to determine their meaning, you
may look into and consider their preamble.
This is, indeed, usually the key to the instru
ment. It states the object sought to bo at
tained by the statute; and it would bo
strange, if the preamble recites that the Con
stitution was ordained to accomplish a cer
tain specified purpose, if the powerto accom
plish that purpose is not found in the Con
stitution. Now, the preamble to ,the Con
stitution recites that the people, “ In order
to form a more perfect union, establish jus
tice, Insure domestic tranquility, provide for
the common defense,* promote the general
welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty,
&c., ordain and establish this Constitution,"*’
&c.
For the purpose of seeming these objects
a Government was established, clothed with
powers adequate, as was supposed, to accom
plish these purposes. Now, if a permanent
and perfect union between free and slave
States Las been demonstrated to ho impossi
ble, may not the obstacle to sneb union be
removed ? If justice cannot be established
while slavery exists, shall not slavery cease ?
Has Congress the constitutional power to
Insure domestic tranquility? I submit to
the candidand thoughtful men of all parties,
whether, in the light of the history of the
past, the endless controversies and dissen
sions, from the Missouri question down to
tbe civil war in Kansas, the riots and out
rages caused by slavery,- culminating In this
terrible rebellion and bloody war, whether
domestic tranquility Is attainable while slave
ry exists? If not, may not this domestic
tranquility bo insured by removing the dis
turbing cause? Ifilndecd, there is no med
icine for this evil, If this vicious clement may
not bo removed, then the founders of the
Government established the Constitution to
insure tranquility without the power to ac
complish the object *
Fourth. Among the enumerated objects of
the Constitution was to provide for the pub
lic define. Assuming the iaet that slavery
is a source of weakness and danger to us,
and wonld afford aid and strength to a for
eign or domestic enemy, con wc provide for
the common defense by removing the dan
ger? If a city charter vested in Ihc corpo
rate body the power to provide for the com
mon defense, and a magazine of powder
should be established in a populous district,
would any lawyer doubt the power of the
corporation to cause its removal ? If a dan
gerous and contagious disease should spring
up, would the power to cause its removal be
questioned? If a pestilence-breeding nui
sance existed, could it be removed and its
cause be prohibited ?
Again, the Constitution was ordained to
promote the general welfare, audio secure to
us and to our posterity the blessings of lib
erty. Suppose experience has demonstrated
. that we cannot have prosperity, northe bless
ings of liberty, without extirpating slavery.
Suppose the census tables demonstrate that
slavery is the great obstacle to onr progress;
that free labor will produce double that of
slave labor.; that with free labor yon will
have national prosperity, wealth, every ele
ment of greatness; that with freedom yon
will have education, arts, science, civiliza
tion, religion; while with slavery you have
Ignorance, brutality, vice, barbarism;' can
wc, under a Constitution formed with the
avowed object of promoting the'general wel
fare, promote it byaholishlug slavery? Sup
pose it to be demonstrated that liberty and
slavery arc incompatible, and that unless yon
destroy slavery, slavery will destroy freedom
and republican government, can yon secure
the blessings of liberty to yourselves and
your posterity by destroying slavery ?
M. Arnold here discussed the power of the
Government over that portion of the Union
where the rebellion exists, and quoted from
the Constitution that “Congress shall have
power to provide for the common defence
and the general welfare, 1 ’ dec. The President-
Is an officer 6f the United States, the Com
mondcr-in-Chicf of its armies, and it is his
duty to suppress rebellion, repel invasion,
and maintain the Constitution everywhere in
the Union, and carry oat the guarantee to
each State of a republican form of govern
ment; and ibis he is to do, when necessary,
by force, by warj subject to the laws of war;
and Congress has foil power to moke all laws
necessary and proper to carry out, and into
full execution, these war of the Gov
ment, including the well-established
BELLIGERENT HI GUT OF EMANCIPATING SLATES.
If elavery'is the corner-stone of the rebell
ion, cannot that corner-stone bo constitution
ally knocked out ? If slavery is the cause of
tbe war, giving strength to our enemies; if it
feeds and clothes iheir armies, and keeps
them In the held, and enables them to keep
up their power; and if the Prcsidenf or Con
gress, or both acting together, by freeing
them, can deprive the rebels of this power,
and bring their freed slaves to out side, and
thus provide for the common defense, and
thus restore the Union and a republican go.v
eminent to the loyal men of the rebel States,
is not the right to do this clear and indispa
table ? If wc have not this right, then is the
Government without the means of self-prcscr*
vation.
Constitution provides that “the Uni
ted States shall guaranty to every State in
this Union a republican* form of govern
ment.” Congress has the power to do every
thing neccsssry|to moke good that guarantee.
If the emancipation of staves in the rebel
States will tend to the establishment of a
republican form of government in the States
in rebellion, who can deny the power to
emancipate ? The government, so called, ex
isting <iefacto % in the States in rebellion, is in
antagonism to the republican government the
Constitution requires the nation to guarantee
It is the right and the duty of the Govern
ment to destroy that usurped and rebellious
de facto government, and establish a republi
can government in its place. In accomplish
ing Oils, If slavery stands in the way, may it
notbe removed out of the way? * * *
I ask gentlemen this question. J eft Davis
has made war upon onr country, attempted
to set np upon onr soil a rebellious govern
ment, attacked onr capital, and now holds a
portion of these States under a despotic tyr
anny. In making war upon him to snbdne
him, to re-establish our authority, and fnllfil
the guarantee of a republican form of gov
ernment, can. onr Government do all that
cue nation can do when at w at with another
under the rules of war ? Surely this will not
be denied. This brings us to the inquiry
whether the emancipation of the. slaves of
the enemy Is or is not a recognized mode of
carrying on modern warfare. Let ns see.
The end we are seeking to accomplish is to
crush the rebellion. The abolition of slavery
lends directly to the accomplishment of that
end, and os effectually as to subdue the rebel
armies in the field. "\Vithout their slaves the
rebel armies could not long exist. Emanci
pation not only; deprives the rebels'of the
means of supporting their armies, bnt it is
the most efficient means of bringing the
force and power of four millions of people
to our side.*
«Now, the end -wc arc seeking, to-wit, the
deetmetion of the rebel power, “being' legiti
mate,* and “ within the s*cope of the Consti- €
lotion,” to use the language of Chief Justice
Marshall;all means* which arc appropriate
and plainly adapted to tho end, and which
arc not prohibited by the Constitution, are
lawful. (4 "Wheaton’s Rep.,42Ll I assert,
without fear of contradiction, that tho eman
cipation of the slaves-of an enemy is a well
recognized belligerent right, and would not
be questioned by any well-informed person if
wc were at war with Spain, Brazil, or any
other nation holding slaves. Eas not onr
Government the same belligerent rights
iigalnst the lufamona traitor Davis as it would
have against a recognized nation ? The rteht
to (marcipate slaves has been so generally
recognized as a belligerent right, that it will
rctrcclj be questioned. This power was cx
erdsed by Great Britain in tho revolutionary
wer, end in the whrof 1813; and tho right to
exercise it was admitted by General .Wash-;
ington,-acd Mr. Jefferson, and not contro
verted by any. ~
Mr. uefferson says Virginia lost. thirty
thousand slaves under Cornwallis, and if the
slaves bad been .token “to give' them., free
dom it would have been right.” : • '
The statement- and argument of John
Quincy Adams on this subject has never been
successfully answered
• “I l*y this down os the law of notions. I say
that military authority tokos, lor the time, the
place of all "municipal' institutions, end. slavery
among the rest;-and that, under that state-of
things, so far horn Us being true that the States
where slavery exists have the exclusive manage
ment of the subject, uot ouly the President of the
United States, but the Commander of the Army,
has power to order the universal emancipation of
the slaves. 1 ' • • * . • ’ •
“ From the instant that the slavcholdlng Statsa be
come the theatre of a war, civil, servile, or foreign,
ticm that Instant the war powers of Congress ex
tend to interference with the institution cf slavery,
In every way in whichit can be interfered with, trom
a claim ol indemnity for slaves taken or destroyed,
to the ce&lon of States burdened with slavery to
aforelgnyower.” * • • • “Itisawar power,
I aay It is a war power; and when onr country is
actually in war, .whether It bo a war of invasion or
a war of insurrection, Congress has power to carry
on the war, and must carry it on According to the
laws of war: and by the laws of war an invaded
country bas all its laws sadmunidpal institutions
swept by Ibe board, and martial power takes the
place of them. When two hostile armies are set in
martial arrtv, the commanders of both armies have
power to emancipate all the slaves in the invaded
territory. 11 *
The great error In the public mind on this
subject arises from applying the provisions
designed to protect citizens In times of peace
to traitors in time of war.
The provision that no person shall be de
prived of life without duo process of law
docs not make it illegal or unconstitutional
to kill rebels on tbe field of battle. Neither
do the provisions in regard to the security of
property, or claim to service, moke it uncon
stitutional, under the wax power, to deprive
rebels of their slaves.
As against tbe right to military service, Is
the claim of a master to the service of a slave
better or more sacred than that of a master
to the service of an apprentice, or of a fothcr
to the service ofhis child?- TbcGoverhment
can take my son and your apprentice; can It
not take your slave ? In case of a foreign
war, could not the Government conscript ev
ery able-bodied slave ? Can It not do the
same !n a domestic war against traitors ?
Then It seems clear to demonstration that the
Government may emancipate slaves.
The power, then, being clear, In the name
of liberty ana of justice and humanity, let it
bo exercised. Proclaim.“ liberty throughout
the land to all the inhabitants thereof ,r
Let us build upon this rock, and the gates
of hell shall not prevail against ns.
I cannot close without offering my tribute
o'fhomage to timt great man who bas given
to the Institution of slavery the bordestblows
it has ever received. Let. Abraham Lincoln
finish the great work ho has began.
The great objects of his life are to crush
the rebellion and eradicate slavery. His am
bition is to live on the page of history as the
restorer of the Union, the emancipator of his
country. For these great ends he has labor
ed ond’tollcd through difficulties and obsta
cles fully known only to himself and to God.
The year that has just closed will live as
the year of the proclamation of emancipa
tion. This act the President declared was
sincerely believed to be an act of justice,
warranted by the Constitution upon military
necessity; and ho invoked for it the consider
ate judgmant of mankind and the gracious
favor of Almighty God. It will mark an era
in modem civilization as dearly os the Dc
doiation of Independence, or. the ac
quisition of Magna Charto. By
history it will be regarded as a great
act of humanity and justice. As a matter of
State policy, Us wisdom has already been
vindicated. This, proclamation, by present
ing onr national struggle as a clearly defined
contest between liberty and slavery, changed
the altitude of Europe towards ns.. Under
its influence and the victories achieved under
Us auspices, all fear of foreign intervention
has disappeared. Since the day of its issue
no more Floridas have sailed from British
waters. England’s broad arrow arrests tbe
rebel, rams being fitted out in her har
bors. Lonis Napoleon, following, the exam
ple of Great Britain, arrests the rebel gun
boats in the waters of France, Lord Lyons
now arises with alacrity to warn Mr. Seward
of a rebel plot in Canada.
"With liberty and union thus written by the
President’s own hand upon our national ban
ner, we have had Gettysburg, Port Hudson,
Vicksburg, Knoxvillle and Chattanooga.
* * * * * °
I ask the ardent and impatient friends of
freedom to put Implicit faith Ingraham
Lincoln. Remember he lives for the restora
tion of the Union and the abolition of slav
ery. If you deem him slow, or If yon think
he has made mistakes, remember now often
time has vindicated his wisdom. * * ♦
The mosses of the people everywhere trust
and love him. They know his hands arc
clean .and his breast Is pfire. The people
know that the devil has no bribe big cnongb,
no temptation of gold, or place, or power,
which can seduce the honest heart of Abra
ham Lincoln. They know that while he Is
President there is no. danger of a coup d'etat.
Let him exercise whatever extraordinary
powers the public safety may require, the
people instinctively feci that their liberties
and laws are safe in his bonds. They sleep
soundly, with no disturbing apprehensions,
while he holds the nine. Impetuous, eager,
impatient men call him slow, over cautious,
wanting In energy. Bctfiembcr tbe times in
which we live; remember the danger of reck
less energy, of unscrupulous wiiland'paftsion.
Yon have a Chief Magistrate of dean hands
andpnrebcart; sagacious, firm, upright,and
true. Somewhat rude ana rough, It maybe,
hut under this rough exterior yon have the
real and true hero. If he is a diamond ini the
rough, he is nevertheless real, with no false
glitter or garnish pretension. Ton have in
him a man of that sobriety, of that self-com
mand, of that freedom from passion; of that
justice and truth, of that soundness of judge
ment and perfect rectitude of intention, that
has bad, in all these attributes, uo parallel,
since the days of Washington.
Taking the.last five eventful years, and Mr.
Lincolnlias exerted a groatc* influence upon
the popular heart and in forming public opin
ion than any other man. If slavery now reels
and staggers in Its last struggles, it is from
the blows it lias received at bis bands. Ills
speeches and writings, plain, homely, and
unpolished at- they sometimes are, have be
come the household words of the people, and
crystalizcd into the overwhelming public
sentiment which demands the extinction of
slavery. •
He is a radical—a radical from conviction,
not from passion,, or hatred, or revenge. In
all great radical changes, in running round
sharp curves. Is it not better to pnt on the
brakes sometimes, rather than to run off the
track and smash up the train ?
' ■ There arc always men who arc loud, bois
terous, furious, intolerant, proscriptive and
cruel, whose hearts arc filled with hatred and
malice, and who, to eradicate one evil, are
willing to tear up the good which it has
taken ages to secure. Such was not the.ex
utopic set by the greatest ' reformer and most
radical teacher who ever appeared on earth—
the Son of God. Mr. Lincoln’s whole theory

LETTER FROM PROFESSOR F.*W. NEWMAN.
To the Editor of tbo Loudon Star:
Sm: 'We arc already engaged in two formi
dable wars—ln New Zealand and Japan. We
are not clear of a third in China. We look
on with alarm at the violent proceedings in
Germany against Denmark, not knowing now
we may be implicated in that quarter. Mean
while—apparently through fear, and through
nothing else—we allow Russia to violate the
treaty of ISSC, and to set np; a war fleet in
the Black Sea, capturing our,merchant ships
if they attempt to trade wiiir the Circassians.
Isay, it is apparently through fear;-for no
one who considers onr recent Asiatic wars,
or the zeal with which the Ministry sprang to
arms in the matter of the ’Trent, will easily
impute it to humanity that Lords Pal
merston and Russell wink at the breach of
treaty involved in the Russian blockade. 1
With such an atmosphere of war around
ns, I cannot believe that tfcis or any English
Ministry would covet American enmity, not
to say American war. It Is .true, at the cri
sis of Northern weakness they breathed.
Hemes and scoffed at arbitration, even after
learning officially that President Lincoln had
not authorized the act of Capt.-Wilkes, and
was open to friendly representations. Yet,
before the disunion, no English Ministry was
ever brave in a matter for which bravery was
far more urgently needed. I refer tothesys
tcmatlc outrages -committed at Charleston,
Mobile, and all the principal ports of the
Southern States, against our colored seameu
—outrages which, if codunittcd in Bnrmoh
or Japan, would have been promptly replied
to by a high-handed war.
-. Against President Lincoln’s Government
we committed, as I believe, a sin of princi
ple when the Queen was advised to recogize
as bcllgcrcnts on the ocean those who were
not beligereuts on the ocean; those whose
war was wholly a land war, not touching us;
whom, moreover, we know to he not insur-:
gents in a good cause,' but traitors in the
worst of causes.
TiVhen England declared herself neutral be
tween a righteous Government and a power
seeking to exist for the sole sake of propa
gating slavery, and thereby gaye to the latter
gratuitously an enormous advantage and
great moral encouragement, our very
best friends in the North became
violently indignant. But badly as. they
regard ns to have behaved in that
matter, they forget onr first offence in com
parison with the second—that our neutrality
hod been unfaithful, and U unfaithful to this'
day. Only yesterday I read in the columns of
the 'Biar of two more American ships
burnt by the “English” pirate Alabama.
Why is It not seized in the first English port
which it dares to enter? By all these events
we arc laying up evil and quarrel for the fu
ture. „
It is astonishing how few Englishmen are
aware that Englandris liable to repay every
shilling of damage done to the American
commerce] by these. violences. Wo- our
selves first advanced the law . and; practi
cally applied it against America. In 1703,
President 'Washington, on the representation
of the English ambassador, did what he
could to prevent the fitting out of privateers
to aid France, and not only restored British
vessels which bad beet captured, bat pro
claimed that .“the Government of the United
States held itself responsible to indemnify
British owners for such captures.’* This
stood upon the general moral rights of na
tions, there being then no foreign cnlistnlcat
act in the United States.
' Bnt in ITO4, immediately after the applica
tlen of the British Government, Congress
passed such a law as satisfied ns; ana the.
President, with the concurrence of Ihd Senate
mode a treaty with England, of which one
clause secured indemnity to British owners
for vessels captured by ships fitted out In the
United States. And all damages were faith
fully repaid to us. With such an expedient, '
• it-Is morally Impossible for any American
government to fall to exact repayment for all'
ic violences committed by tim ships fitted
- out In England, even If some ot them have
' contrived to steal into a confederate port.' A
soro-point, of quarrel most remain,which, s
even If It does not reach the point of war, will.
visit us with weakness, with alarm, and with
enormous expense.
"What Is the Asiatic policy of England ?
Apparently war In Japan—>war In New
Zealand. Vhat la her European policy? To
talk for'justice, but take no one practical
step for justice. Why not? Because, in ad
dition to.faer African troubles, r she has an out'
standing quarrel for her wrongs to American
commerce. What, then, is the domestic pol
icy of England ? Not reform, not retrench
ment, not judicious expenditure on Internal
Improvement; that la Impossible. As
we now go on we must have cver-lu
creasing armaments. Suppose that we owe
three millions sterling to President Lincoln's
citizens for property destroyed. How much
cheaper to pay that at once than to allow the
bill to double itself, and then pay eight or
ten millions a year in European ignominy
while watching .against possible American
war, until less honorable ministers pay the
debt of nature, and some fresher mind rise
to the head of aflbirs—a Lord Stanley ora
Mr. Gladstone—who will pay the American
Mil. and tell ns to think ourselves well rid
of it.
. At the next elections many win raise a cry
of “Peace and retrenchment.” ...Let none
delude'themselves with the idea of solid
pence* or fruitful war. or useful if inglorious
retrenchment, nnlcss we apeedily retrace our
steps, and overthrow the evil precedents not
yet finally, sanctioned—declare that the Con
federates arc not ocean belligerents, that the
ships built and fitted out in England against
the North are English pirates, that they must
be seized wherever they can be caught,' and
all their damages,repaid. ‘ And to thisa crim
inal prosecution oi their’ builders, and we
shall retain the good will of our best friends
—the freemen of America, After that we
shall have strength to spare in aid of Europe
an justice. F. W. Newman.
TheSlandcr on SUmH osmer.
Wc printed a few days ago a note from Mr.
Gibson, the famous English sculptor, refuting
the calumny of some English scribbler who
asserted that Miss Hoamer was not the au
thor of the fine statue of Zenobia recently
exhibited by her in England.. Mr. Story, the
well-known American sculptor, sends the
following note to a London journal on the
same subject: . -
Rome, November, 1533.
*3.My attention has just been called to a pass
age in the last number of the Art Journal , in
which'the writer, speaking of the statue of
Zenobia. exhibited by Miss Hosmcr at the
International Exhibition of 18G3,.Asserts that
though “ said to be by Miss'Hosmcr, it is, in
reality? the work of an Italian artist in her
studio.” This Injurious statement, which is
copied from a newspaper called T/ie Queen, is
so direct an accusation of a want of honor
and even common honesty on the part of
Miss Hosmer, that it cannot be allowed to re
main nncontradlcted. Those who know this
amiable lady and accomplished artist, will,
treat it with the contempt it deserves; but
as the public, to whom she is known only by
reputation, may be thereby injuriously influ
enced towards her, it becomes the duty of
those who know this statement to be utterly
untrue to say so publicly. I therefore avail
myself of your columns to nail this base coin
to the counter, so that it may circulate no
more.
I wish to say publicly that I know this as
sertion to* bo utterly devoid of troth. The
“Zenobia” was the product of Miss Hos
mcris own mind and her own hands, and to
her alone the wide praise which it has so de
servedly received justly belongs. The only
possible foundation forsuch a statement may
he found in the fact that Miss Hosmcr. ac
cording to the common practice of sculptors,
employed a person to assist her In a the first
manual labor of putting up the irons and
clr k f from her original sketch; hut this work,
which required-hut a short time, once per
formed, tbe statue passed. Into the hands of
Miss Hosmcr, by whom solely it was carried
forward and completed. Signor Nucci was
the person .thus employed by her (as he
Is by several other sculptors), . and
is “the Italion artist” referred to in the
Art Jonmal as the author of Miss Eosmcr’s
1 Zenobia.’. Bnt as he is an honest man, he
is greatly indignant with this statement,
which reflects upon him also as an accom
plice In an asserted imposture, and exposes
him to tho possible suspicion of having au
thorized a statement which is entirely false,
and which he is Incapable of having origi
nated.
Here, in Borne, this attack has been re
ceived by the artists with a common chorus
of reprobation; and Miss Hosmer, who, os I
understand, has taken legal steps to clear her
self from tins accusation of Imposture, will
find it easy to prove, from the months of
many witnes&e6.who were In a position per
sonally to know tbe facts, the ntter falsity of
the statement originally published in the
Queen , and then quoted and adopted by the
Art Journal." "W. w Story.
Anticipation of tbe Telegraph.
To the N. Y, Evening Post:
' A lady recently pointed out to me a curious
passage in the two hundred and forty-first
number of the Spectator, dated in 1711, which
is a remarkable foreshadowing of the electric
telegraph. I transcribe It as it may amuse as
well os surprise many of your readers. ~
Strada, in .one of bis Prolusions (written
about two hundred and forty years ago),
gives an account of a chimerical correspond
ence between two friends, by the help of a
certain loadstone, which had such virtue in
it, that if it touched two several needles,
when one of the needles so touched began to :
move, the other, though at never so great a
distance, moved nt the same time and in the
samemanner. He tells us that two friends,
being each of them .possessed of one of these
needles, made a kind of dial plate, inscribing
It. foar. and twenty letters in the
same manner as the hoars or tbo dayurc
marked upon the ordinary dial plate. They
then fixed one of these needles on each' of
these plates in such a manner that it could
move round without impediment so as
to touch any of the four and twenty
letters. Upon separating from one another'
Into distant countries,' they agreed to
withdraw themselves punctually into their
closets at a certain the day, and to
converse with one another by means of this
their invention. Accordingly, when they
were some hundred miles asunder, each of
them shut himself up in- his closet at (he
time appointed, and immediately cast his ey
upon bis dial-plate. If he hud a mind to
write anything to his friend, he directed his
needle to every letter that formed the words
which be had occasion for, making a little
pause at the end of evciy word or sentence,
to avoid confusion. The friend in the mean
* while saw his own sympathetic needle mov
ing abont of itself to every letter which that
of his correspondent pointed at. By this
means they talked together across a whole
continent, and conveyed their thoughts to
one another inan Instant, over cities or moun
tain?, seas or deserts."
Horrible Harder In Missouri. -
[From tbc Missouri Democrat, Jon. B.]
Cape Girardeau, Jan. 1,166 L
A horrible and most cruel murder was per*
pcirated at 12 o’clock on the night of the37th
nit., at the residence of DamcT Crltze, near
Balias, in Bollinger county. Mo. The house
was attacked by eleven rubs, who demanded
possession and threatened to bum It if
refused. At the place were Mr. James
Stevens and Wm. Critzc—the latter a
brother of Banicl Crltze—and Mr. Frasier,
who is the Sheriff of Bollinger county.
They were three very g66«i And active
Union men, and with the landlord made four.
„On opening the door the rchs commenced
firing into the house, without regard to
whom they might hit Sheriff Frasier was
wounded in the hip and foil to the floor,
where ho remained till the fight was over;
bpt Tvilikm Crltze and James' Stevens de
fended themselves and the house with bra
very. They took their stands, Critzc at one
cod of the house and Stevens at the other,
and fired with accuracy and rapidity at the
fee, till both were tilled. Stevens fell with
three balls in his breast and two stabs in the
side, and Critzc with a ball in his loins and
another In his body.
The rebels could not boast, for they were
six to one. One of their party had his thigh
broken, another was wounded in the shoul
der, and a thirdwds shot In the arm after the
fight. They made Banicl Critzc take a light
and show .the dead and tell thelrnamcs. m
Crltze was not yet dead, but they roughly
stripped him, took other clothing, and leu.
Two better Union men never lived than the
deceased. In their massacre the Unionists
have suffered an Irreparable loss.
Gold Found In the. take Superior
Keglon,
[From the Detroit Tribune, Jan. 7.]
. -There is apparently no limits either in ex
tent or variety* to the rich resources of Mich
igan. No similar extent of country upon the
habitable globe is equally rich in natnral
wealth, ana certainly no other region offers
such tempting inducements for the invest
ment of capital to properly'develop its re
sources. She Is rich in iron, copper, coal,
gypsum and salt, to which silver has recently
been added, and it is now ascertained that
rich deposits of gold lie imbedded in her vir
gin soil, os will be seen by the following ex
tract from tbc Philadelphia ZEning
-of Jap.3: “In connection with this' silver
lead region, there has transpired in this city
a circumstance which it is not pretended will,
if believed, abate the excitement now pre
vailing therein. A-sample of iron pyrites,
sold by its owner- to have been taken front a
quartz lode in the silver-lead region in Mich
igan, by analysis of Bußois & 'Williams,
Analytical Chemists, of this city, woj found
to be wonderfully rich in gold—the value for
the ton of rock being above the average of
that of the ore of Colorado.”- The specimen
above referred to was delivered to Messrs.
Du Bois A Williams b& Capt. John Spalding,
of the steamer Northern Light, one of tbe
pioneers of silver-lead' enterprise, and came
from section 10, town 49, range 38 west, be
longing to the Marquette Silver Mining Com
pany oi this city.
A New 'Winter Sport.
Among the sports on tbe ice at St. Louis,
the Danocratol that city gives the following;
* Some enterprising: genius had placed a.live
duck in. a box, leaving about six inches of
Us head and neck out, and this box was
placed in a hole cut in the ice, the upper por
tion, showing the duck’s head, being exposed
to view. He bad a stick about twc'feet long,*
and charged ten cents for tho privilege of
throwing the stick at 'the duck’s head—the
lucky Individual who struck and kiUed the
duck to have tho fowl os the reward of hls :
skill Many persons, struck with the novelty
of this trick, and not doubting that they
could knock the dnek’s head off in three
throws, Invested their money and hundreds
gathered around to witness the sport. Now
the deck Is one of tho most artfol dodgers
1 extant, and ho saved his life several hundred
‘times by the quickness with '.which he drew
in his head at the approach of the murderous'
' stick. The proprietor of : this 'lnstitution
pocketed about thirty dollars in a few hoars,
and when wo left the stick was.-still whirling
and the duck was saving his neck with a
certainty that gave promise of a long and:

Constitution Water
Has been pronounced by tbe Medical Faoultyv -aad
tbe Public, to be the moot wonderful remedy for the
permanent cure of all diseases of tbe Stomach, Liver,
Kidneys, Bladder and Womb, that has ever been
It Is not a Medical water. It is from experience
that Constitution Water has emanated, and we noir
say let no man doubt when a single bottle has been
known to cure dteeawa which the beat medical talent
In this country has failed to relieve.
A remedy posseaslnjTthe virtues of Constitution
Water cannot be classed under 44 quack” preparations
as It is now used by tbe most scientific practitioners la
this city. It is only second close physicians that cry
down popular remedies, while the better skilled make
use of every means to accomplish a cure; and the
success of the physician increases as his knowledge of
different remedies enables him to produce a cure,
while others rail in the attempt. Science is satisfied
with the truth.
Give Constitution Water a fair trial—wo mean you
who are under some specialist’s care from year to
year, and we particularly allude to ladles who are
constantly resorting to local treatment and all sorts
of local applications for diseases, with as much chance
of success as there would be from local applications
to the throat for diseases of the brain.
We have always been careful to use language In our
circular that could not shock themost delicate organi
zation, bat wo receive so many communications from
persona for which Constitution Water Is adapted, and
of whose disease no mention baa been made, that wa
have come to tbe conclusion that If tbe remedy Is ca
pable of producing a core, no matter what the disease
may be, it should be made known. Tbe medicine Is

fg 1 would say. Constitution Watar la not like a gild
ed‘p 11, made to salt the eye and taste; It is a medi
cine In every sense of-tbe term, placed in tbe hands of
the people for their relief, and ll taken according to
the directions, it will in every case produce a radical
core. We would say that the directions in regard to
diet, etc., relate only to the disease under which they
occur.
DIABETES
Is a disease of the Stomach and Liver, actingftbrough
the Kidneys, and Is, without doubt, the most obstinate
disease, except Consumption, that affects the human
constitution. We have no space for discussing causes,
but will state that the effect of the disease la the con
version of the starchy principle (or vegetable portion
of the food) into sugar, which stimulates the kidneys
to an excessive secretion of water. Many persona
«ffer from this disease who are ignorant of it; tnaC
uTtbey pass large quantities daring the day, and are
obliged to get ap {torn one to fifteen or twenty times
during the night. ‘No notice U taken of it nmll their
attention Is called to the large discharge of water, and
often when U Is so far advanced as to be beyond the
control of ordinary remedies. Another sympton is
the great thirst which, when the disease Is lolly estab
limbed. Is intolerable—tno patient drinks constantly,
without being satisfied; also dryness of the month,
cracking of the Ups. a sweet breath, in the more ad
vanced cases, and finally loss of appetite, emaciation,
and the patient gradually sinks from exhaustion.

I passed more than two gallons of water In twenty
four hours. I was obliged to get np as often as ten or
twelve times during the night, and In five months I
lost about fifty pounds In weight. Daring the month

months, when be left her worse than he found her. t
then employed one of the best physicians I could find,
who attended her for about nine months, and white
she was under bla care she did not sailer quite aa
much pain. He finally gave hemp, and said “her case
waa incurable. For,** said he, “she has such a com
