1t appears that amongst the "blac. barharans, there
are many nnves of the land, who having been taken
captive BY the English rebels, are by change OF dress
so altered in appearance, that they cannot be recog.
Missed Being forced by those rebels to do them menIal
service, they gtevousy oppressed, and have Tie
prospect Of being placed in the day of battle, foremost

hand they fear TINT if they retreat they will meet deah
at the hands Of their oppressor Unable 10 speak OUT
and without opportunity either OF advancement, or
retirement from among them, these are indeed 10 be
commiscrated.
Among the cred barbarans, too there are some
who have been brought by those rebels from other
lands with no will To follow them and with 10 share
in their plunder Why should these continue in their
employ,
Thcrs fore is this clear Proclamation issued. If, in

yet IN reiersnco 10 subject upon which she hopes
there greater divisions among ourselves than upon
any other-intendng first to bind the hands Of other
great Powers by treOty to the effect and con-
sqaeniy sol aside their interference against her she
proposes treaty TO the United States, which she Re-
ieves and hopes will not be accepted and in the exc
cution Of which she knows frequent causes of war
will arise. The refusal of France to become party
to this treaty. may, for time thwart the measures OF
Great Britain, but we believe that her purpose will
ultimately be attempted. The state of affairs IN
Mexico too, ought not to be disregardcd. The nso
ence Of Santa Anna is probably not without some
hints Of support He would hardly, in the very act OF
invasion upon the territories Of one Power, seek also
to provoke another unless he had some assurance OF
being backed by powerful assistance
If right then, even If there Is possibility
that we are right in supp sing tnat there Is purpose
among the Powers of Europe, or in the policy Of
England alone beyond the mere questions which
may disturb our relations for time, ought we not to
prepare for the wost7 1t is idle to suppose because
the mere circumstances which have threatened war
have in some cases passed harmlessIy by that there
is no further danger. II the Powers of Europe have
set themselves in array against institutions in
order to get lid of their nnuence-war must sooner
later come. Diplomacy, policy, circumstances may
set aside the particular occasions on which il might
be xpected- but nevertheless il must come and when
il comes it will be for national existence.
The voice Of the French people may have thwar,ed
the purpose Of the Quntupe Treaty, but other pro-
ects will be seized upon and the results may be dire
full Let US then prepare. Let our representatives
unite TO man in providing for the defence of the
country. Let not private animosies nor party ami
mosties hurry US to destruction but let us listen
to the advice Of the Father of our country, and
PATRIA.

The Chief Magistrate will be sustained, and
the country will be saved. A new era is dawn
ing upon US. The crisis is at hand, and change
for the better is approaching. In both Houses
Of Congress the same fire is kindling that as

days of the Revolution, It's ray, though feeble
now, will soon be Aameol beauty and brilliance
II will run through the valleys and ascend the

Already men have risen in the halls OF Con

feet and trampled upon them dsdalnfully.-
These are the PATIoTs these are the GREAT

The Chief Magistrate of the nation VIII not

tude for the occasion. When we assumed the
management of this journal, only some three or

OF THE MAILS BY RAIL
ROADS

In speaking of the suggestion Of the Postmaster
General in regard to the purchase by the Govern
ment Of the stock Of rail road companies where the
works lie in the line of the mail routes the New York
Commercial Advertiser says
'In the first place, it will forever put end to the
acrimonious and unwonted disputes and feuds that
have been engendered between the Post Office De-
partment and the rail road companies and in the
second place it will place the companies in possession
of funded debt or claim, of which they can at all
times avail themselves, by carrying the Government
bonds into the market, if their eXgencics require
them to do 1t will in fact enable them to antici
pate their contracts, il that be desirable. In any
event 1t will be source of relief to the country and
TO the associations themselves,
g Those roads which now in actual operation
will of reap the earliest advantages of the BILL
while those which in process Of construction can
look to it with every confidence of having in perspec-
tive a certain surety against loss.
9" If the New York and Erie Rail Road were now
completed and in operation, the Postmaster General
would be authorized to purchase the right to trans
port the mails during the charter of the company for
a gross sum which would not be less than THREE
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS What an inducement to urge
the company to the completion of the road

LOVE OF MUSIC.

A love of music is said uniformly TO keep pace with
the advancement of civilization, and in order TO be
convinced of the truth of the assertion II is only ne
cessary observe the effect Of the cultivation of this
delightful art manifested in every polished commu-
nifty The harmony of sweet sounds would seem TO
have been intended by the Creator of the pures
sources Of enjoyment those of his creatures whom
he has endowed with capacity for the highest degree
of intellectual improvement. Whilst the Almighty
has manifested his goodness in making the widespread
field of creation vocal with the songs Of his eahered
choristers, and to their voices to he raised in
humble gratitude To Him, in whom they live and
move and have their being, to man alone has been
reserved the faculty of arranging tones to make
them the producers of the extatic mental eleva-
ton. In every degree Of refinement, from that of the
poor Indian in his woodland jes, to that of the most
favored woIshipper of knowledge, we find music re-
cognized the of the most exquisite gIafca-
ton, whether it be in the quiet sphere of social
dearmens the more towering aspirations OF military
fame. The infant in the arms of its fond parent ex-
pcences its soothing influences in the lullaby that
wins il to sleep, and the warrior is hurried away by its
impulses in the spr-strring tones of the wry-neck-
ed fife, or the wild wailings Of the bugle Who can
listen to the swelling tones Of the esc organ it
pours forth its flood Of sound in praise of Him, whose
life time is eternity" without feeling his spirit rise
if to CLIMB to where bright choirs of seraphs chaunt
their hymns Of thankfulness where is the heart
insensble not TO melt with tenderness and love
beneath the spell that's warbled in the breahngs OF
the mellow flute? The hardy of Switzerland,
far far away, fom the snow-capped hills that frown-
ed upon his infancy, feels his heart swell and his
cheek grow moist when he hears the glad chauntings
Of the Rams DE y4cnEs and even the degraded, ex-
lied African, grown grey in chains, is young again

Yes in sick ness in health in sorrow or in
