diency must be determined by circumstan-
ces, keeping in view the great object of
overcoming the rebels, re establishing the
laws, and restoring peace to the nation.
1t is vain for the Government to carry
on this war, or hope to maintain its exis-
tence against rebellious force, without
employing all the rights and powers of
war. As has been said, the right to de-
priye the rebels of their property in slaves
and slave labor, it is as clear and absolute
as the right to take forage from the field,
or cotton from the warehouse, or powder
and arms from the magazine. To leave
the enemy in possession of such property
as forage, and cotton and military stores,
and the means of constantly producing
them, would be madness. II is, therefore,
equal madness to leave them in peaceful
and secure possession of slave property,
more valuable and efficient to thom for
war than forage, cotton and military
stores. Such policy would be national
suicide. Whastodo with the species Of
property, is question that time and cir
cumstances will solve, and need not be
anticipated further than to repeat that
they cannot be held by the Government
as slaves. It would be useless to keep
them as prisoners Of war, and self preser.
vation, the highest duty of Government.
or of individuals, demands that they
should be disposed of or employed in the
most effective manner that will tend most
speedily to suppress the insurrecion and
restore the authority of the Government
If it hall be found that tho men who have
been held by the rebels as slaves are ca
pable Of fbearing arms and performing eff.
cient military service, it is the right, and
may become the duty of the Government
to arm and equip them, aud employ their
services against the rebels, under proper
military regulation, discipline and com.
mand
But in whatever manner they may be
used by the Government, it is plain that,
once liberated by the rcbellious act Of
their masters, they should never again be
restored to bondage. BY the masters
treason and rebellion he forfeits all right
to the labor and service of his slave and
the slave of the rebellious master, by his
service to the Government, becomes justly
entitled to freedom and protection.
The disposition to be made to the slaves
of rebels, after the close of the war, can be
safely left to the wisdom and patr iotism Of
Congress The Representatives Of the
people will unquestionably secure to the
loyal Shareholders every right to which
they are entitled under the Constitution of
the country.

" And one Private Killed" "

Cold words to tell a mothers doting love
That her old age was desolate indeed;
That the proud staff Of her declining yeara
Was tsken from her, at her utmost need.
Brief words-yet II was terrible to feel,
The bitter woe their scanty limits held
Small joy, it seemed in that sad hour 10 know
The field was taken aud the foe was quelled.
Wus il for this, they sent him forth in pride.
a mothers blessing on his boyish head.
a sisters kisses on his beardess lips;
Thus to receive him, voiceless cold and dead
He was their all, perchance they loved him 30
He weut-and now-O, breaking hearts bd still !
Columba's blessings on her bravest sons
Hallows the grave his precious form shall fill
God bless him no delusive hope of gain,
No g'ltteing glory lured his youthful eye;
Loved his country with boys proud love,
Counting it little cen for her " die.
And SO he went and thus they bear him home,
The crimson stain upon his golden hair,
The hush Of dea tn upon his hcro-heart,
The hvart SO eager then to do and dare.
