qure that this policy be adopted This war il for
Slavery; Jet make it the mighty engine for Slav-
ery's destruction, and the rebels viii soon cry
enough" Cheers. They will gee that, like Sa-
turn in The fable, they eating their children,
and wilt consent to cut short the reTast. Every
guaranty that is given to Slavery by the Gov
eminent strengthens the rebels in their course.
The Kansas Brigade has met the enemy in battle,
and routed him in every conflict. We have destroyed
Osceolo-a ,ort of half town aud half military post
but I'll these things combined have not brought the
rebels 80 quickly TO their knees tie escaping OF
few hundred slaves by following the back track Of
the army. ICheen. Gentlemen, my logic teaches
that we cannot defend and make war upon the same
foe 1T the same time and il il il the purpose OF the
Government TO crush the rebels and prevent their
slaves from stampedng, tr0 armies should be sent
into the field. The advance force might be called
the Recommending army, and should be FURNISHED
with offensive weapons. The other should be called
the Slavery restoring army, and should move ABOUT
ten miles in the rear II should be clad In defensive
armor OF triple stesl for such is the meanDess OF
spirit which is bred in the hearts Of men by slave
breeding, save-trading and slayeholding that the
masters would creep into every place Of ambush and
fire upon those who were gathering up and returning
their might've human property. Ii would be legiti-
mate for the Slavery restoribg army to return the
fire. az they might harm some of the pets and dar-
lings for whom they were 30 generously acting.
laughter Therefore, give them the defensive
armor, but no offensive weapons. Such an
Arrangement, novel as 1t might feem, must
be had il Slavery is to be preserved IN the rear
of an army, which moves with force sufi-
Gent to crush this huge rebellion In my opinion the
second army should DO as numerous rs the hIst.
Preserving Slavery will cost the Government ten
times M much rs crushing the rebellion. g That
SOL The policy inaugurated by the kansas Brigade,
which | have the honor to command, was not adopted
in a moment but ia the result of much experience.
In a speech recently made In the City OF Leayen-
worth nv feelings of indignation became wrought
np to such pitch that was betrayed into the use OF
language which was justly condemned by. the
religious sentiment of the country, and which, IN
cooler moments, meets my earnest dsapproval. But,
whether excited or calm, whether my language is
rough or smooth principle and duty require that our
policy be rigidly adhered to until condemned by tie
Government, and if il should be condemned, If the
Government demand Of the Brigade obedience to tie
behests of Slavery, shall consider the question of
withdrawing from the field. Since the Rebels have
failed TO naiionaliLe Slavery, their baie-cry Is:
Down with the Union" Let Slavery lift its Greet
in the air and here l solemnly vow that. If Jim
Iane IL coupelled 10 add n note 10 such an internal
chorus he breaks his sword and quits the field.
Let us be bold; iDscribe Freedom TO All " upon
our banners. and appear Just what we are-the OPP
ponents Of Slavery. 1t is certain II written in
the book Of fate that this point must be reached be-
fore the war il lake tits stand, aud enthusi-
asin viii be inspired in the ranks. In eteadiness Of
purpose aud courage each soldier will be Spartan
hero. The split OF the Crusader will be united with
the iron will Of the Roman, and an army Of such
soldiers is invincble. Cheers. These things TO
you, Indispians, may appear strange; but when
your military education has received that peculiar
cast which experience is sure to give it, and which
now pertains to the Kansas soldier, then will we
march shoulder 10 shoulder, and victoriousy, too,
against the ensaves and brutaIzers of men; against
the traitors to the best Government in the world.
Soldiers, we have a commander IN whose skill,

1t should be the business Of Congress, at its COM
ing session 10 pass law directing the President OF
tie United States, by proclamation, TO order the
rebel States within 80 days or 60 days, 10 lay down
their arms and return 10 their allegiance; or IN de-
fault thereof, declare every slave free throughout
their domains. So far rs | am concerned, hope
the Almighty will 70 direct the hearts Of the rebels
that like Pharaoh, they viii persist IA their crime
and then we will invade them and strike the shack
lea from every limb. Provision, too, should be made
for settling the Africans in iay, Central, or South
America, and let the race form nation By iiselL
