Retaliation is certainly not the most Chris
tianly motive to form the basis of any human
action. The rendering of evil for evil is,
however, too common an inclination among
individuals to be altogether disdained by
nations or governments; and hence the lea
taIionis is an established principle. against
which moralists may prate and philanthro-
pists protest, but which will, nevertheless, be
continued as long as strife, enmity and re-
vepge prevail in the world. The justice of
any Ietaliatory measure may, therefore, we'll
be left unconsidered while the effect is the
principal point to be regarded.
There seems TO be no doubt that the Rich
mond rebels are determind to hold certain
Union men in their possession--some of them
being men of prominence and usefulness at
home--as hostages for those Confederate sea-
men who have been arrested and confined by
our Government as pirates. The intention
is to visit upon these parties the same treat
ment which the privateersmen are to receive,
let it be what it may. The civilized world
may think this barbarous and iuhuman, sus-
taiped by no equity and revolving to every
notion of humanity, but the edict has, gone
forth, and there seems to be no reasonable
ground for any expectation that it will not
be followed to the letter. Then what is to be
done? Shall the majesty of our law be vim
dicated in spite of the consequences, or by
some evasion or clemency shall the rebels
be deprived of the pretext of carrying out
their published schemes of arbitrary butch
ery2
We shudder to think of general adop.
tion by both sides in this fraternal war Of the
principle of retaliation. Surely there are
horrors enough connected with our domes-
tic contest without resorting to indiscrimi-
nate hangings and kindred seventies, and we
would have the Washington Administra
tion waive all minor questions-such as the
recognition of belligerent rights on the part
| of the insurgents-rather than witness q
succession of such scenes as are now threat
ened. While undoubtedly persons engaged
in pIivateeTing, being commissioned by the
sO-called Confederate States, are, in the view
Of the Constitution, pirates, and liable to be
punished as such it is impracticable in 6
state of war to apply the strict rule of Law
to such cases. In reality there is no more
guilt attached to being an enemy on the Sci
than traitor on land, and as the punishmen
is about the same, the difference is slight be
tween a rebel sailor aud a rebel soldier
Hundreds and thousands of instances hav,
already occurred under the authority ant
implied sanction of the Government, wherein
rebels in arms have received the treatmen
of ordinary prisoners of war, and thereby
accorded "belligerent rights" There is NJ
reason why the principle should not be car
ried out and sy stem of exchange adopted
according to the usages of civilized war;

laid down by his predecessor in the Kossga case.
The seizure of Slidell and Mason was wrong,
but Il was also one Of the most absurd and
slupid acts which history records. These di.
plomatists were going to Europe to stir up
feeling against the North, and secure the ac-
knowIedgment Of the Southern oonfederacy.
In seizing them the American officer did more
10 accomplish their errand than any thing they
could possibly have done Themselves. We
have no expectation that the Bfidsh Govern
ment will deal with the matter otherwise than
temporarily, but the collision will strengthen
the bands Of the not uninauential parties in
Britain who are striving to induce the govern
ment to interfere in the American quarrel.
Better have had ten Slidells and MRsons in
Europe than permit such o cause Of quarrel to
arise. We know not what may be the charac-
ter of the Captain of the SIn Jaeinto for loyalty,
but IL be intended TO help the insurgents he
could not have gone about the work better.
The American vessels have been vainly
chasing the Sumter from port TO port; they have
allowed the Bermuda to enter Savanush and to
leave it; they have permitted the HuntSDile to
reachtbe Bermuda sand receive the cargo of the
FinoaL they have reserved all their courage
and activity to stop an unaImed neutral vessel
on the seas, and take from her two venerable
non. combatants. But for the Port Royal bonn
bs1dment, the whole American service would
sink beneath contempt.

Government TO prevent the Southern diplo
matists reaching Europe is a curious proof of
weakness in men who profess TO be careless ms
to the action of foreign powers. The United
States have nothing to fear from Europe, If
they go on with The war vigorously and sue
ceed in the desired object Of preserving the
Union and it is altogether q very small busi-
ness to hunt a couple Of men over the ocean, to
prevent them using their tongues to persuade
the shrewd rulers Of England and France to do
violence to their own interests by entering upon
great war. 1t was bad enough to send four
vessels after them when their departure by the
H,mtsuiNe was announced, but to run the risk
of war with England for such an object is an
act of midsummer madness. 1t will add in
fnitely to the strength and dignity of the
American Government if, without waiting fol
rsmonstraDce from Britain, they at once sol
free the captives, and send them on their road
to Europe. II will be right, which is infinitely
better than being expedient, but it will also
show that the North has confdenoein the good
ness of its cause, and does not fear the tonguel
of traitors, well poised though they may be.

"PLUcK"-THATs THE WoRD.-The Bos-
ton Post, the old Democratic mouth piecs in
Massachusetts,, comes up to the mark in this
emphatic style:
The nation has a great work before it,
how great time alone can show. But we
can not exaRgerate its .greatnessAwe may
not exagPerate its leDgth-dnd the sooner zoe
take long and large gieio Of IL the better.
We must look far ahead, and go in for the
war and in this view we must take things
coolly and pluckily, stiffening our back bone
to go through with any thing and every
thing to insure the ultimate triumph which
we have reason to expect and which we are
''bound to have" and utterly ignoring, il
need be, all sorts Of unfavorable incidents,
the contemplation of which would tend to
disturb and harass. IL is wind and bottom
that tell-it is the pace that kills, as the
South are beginning to discover--it is the
last round that the nation is to gain. York
town outweighed the almost numberless de-
feats that Washington experienced and met
with so much of stern but cheerful manli-
ness.
Cool, enduring, unwavering pluck is what
we need, and must have, in good and evil
We should know too much TO be disturbed
by partial misfortunes-ws should estimate
events at their true and not at their news,
paper value, and even if the national cause
really went i'll for a season, (Which is not the
case at present, thank God and our brave
soldiers y we should look forward to fina
triumph, as bold hearted soldiers of the
right, armed with all human skill and power
can do to command success.

HIittens for the soldiers.

Attention is called to the fact that suffi-
cient number of mittens can not be manufac-
tuTed in the ordinary way to supply our
soldiers before cold weather sets in. But
can not the want be supplied by priVate en-
typrise? 1t has been suggested that ready,
easy and economical mode of supplying the
want is to take the wooden cast off clothing
which is usually cut into carpet rags, or sent
to the rag bag, to be converted into ''shoddy"
by unscrupulous manufacturers. In every
family the old clothes which are thrown
awsy can be used. Any one can cut out a
pair of gloves or pair of mittens, from these
pieces of cloth, and make them up in a very

of cloth gloves, which would not take long
to furnish an abundant supply to the army
long before ordinary manufactures could
supply them. It is probable many of the
mittens made in this way would appear
rather homely, but our brave volunteers
suffering under the keen blasts of winter

sideration the looks of the article. There
are many ways in which those inclined may
contribute to the health and comfort OF oul
soldiers at comparatively trifing cost
The above is one of them, and well. wort
