Let the following extracts from the N.
Y. Eadspssdsat and the n. 7. Tribune,
with sundry patriotic ~ speeches Of po-
hacal clergyman, speak for themselves !:
"Still it makes bat little difference
what the individuals Of an army intend.
They are now the inearnations od an idea.
This idea necessarily involves S1hasred te
slavery" Besides, the necessi ties Of war
are desputic. We mast rouse up tho
slaves evsntually. We cannot help it,
Ii they help Us, We cannot shoot them
down. One repFisal bsgets another. The
Rebel privatesrs capture cur geld bear
ing steamers or our coast craft we loosen
the bonds Of the slaves. And che ulti-
matum assast be, a. Wendell Phillips says,

now are utterly out Of thought. The North
are determined 70 break the back of this
| ConfsdsFacy. The business community
have made up their minds to put this mat

again; and eventually this can only be done
by destroying slavery as system. With

and burning shame at length after 50

to be taken away! The chain of AmHri- |

Still further, one can see in the future,
looming up before Us, the image of .
stronger Govsraaas1at. When, after years
OF warfare, the reasonable Confedeacy il
utterly crushed, the Southern porta ruined,
The currents of commerce turned for syex
