Slavery the Maine Stay

the South. particularly in the r sent crisis,
AMI our enemies will be likely To find that
the moral cancer. about which their ora
tors are - fond Of prating is really one Of
the most effective weapons employed against
the MON by the South.
If the above statement is true ana the
writer thereof probably knows whereof he
atirms, then the Federal Government is not
a moment too soon in awakening to its i'm
portance and shaping its policy, accordingly.
No matter what may have been asserted as
the leaiin : object in conducting this war, or
what may now be understood as its controll-
Ing idea, it cannot ignore the great fact. that
this rebellion has got to be subducd by
force-physical force, WELDING with terri
bic effects all the enginery of war, and over
coming and mastering all obstacles in the
way OF successful issue. If the peculiar
institution sis a tower of strength to the
rebels, then strike that down at once, with
out hesitation or reluctance. Strike "Se.

nation.

Gen. Sherman is too civil a commander by
that infc>t South Carolina He is too much
given to using honcyed words to suit the
public feeling and to meet public expecta-
ton. Instead of addressing the pack of de-
terlnincd rebels under bis especial watch and
guard just now, in the fine and ondearing
terms Of 3" Citizens of South Carolina, y
- Fellow Citizens, - Carolnians" &c. he
should have ord, red the rebel. in the State
TO lay down their arms at once, or their
neeks would pay the forfeit. and their whole
property be coufscatcd. So many days
should he gwen them, in which to manifest
their loyalty or repentance, and then the
fire aud sword should complete their de-
struction. This State has been the hot bed
OF treason from the first. and her citizens
who have fomentel this wicked rebellion
should not receive the treatment of ordinary
rebels Il is the general wish. ard almost
an universal expedition. that South Caro-
lima and South Garolnitns, should have
meted to her and them all the risors and
the crucltcs which civilized nations tolerate
in war. Let this band Of traitors be made
an example of for the good OF the other les,
guilty states. Some jim Lane who

Of your country. You have laws lessly seiz.
upon the forts, arsenals, and other property,

" We have heard from gentleman who

to the Legislature of that State. His rep
reservations of matters in Dixie do not look
well on paper. He says, &" Ii We fail with

indeed, there will be no hope for an indepen-
