attention Of every free, patriotic and intel
ligen; mind of the North, and an inquiry
into The policy we must closely pursue, in
our present national struggle, for the just
disposal Of a certain kind Of property, call
cd slaves, is being greatly agitotcd by all
public presses far and near.
When this rebellion lad just begun TO
move, eight monthssince, little was thought
Of the nov very complicated question,

too, was then anticipated By our greatest
statesmen, that this same question would,

forced upon Us for iinal decision--a de-

fore as unprepared, and Unexpectedly fills
every heart with painful interest and So
lieitude. Almost every citizen, whether
he Is bowed down by the hand Of poverty
or sitting with ease in the lap Of luxury "
feels himself deeply interested in this all
important topic, and expresses his sympa-
thy and philanthropy FOR his suffering frl-
