GHOANIEG OF THE BLACK RI
PUHLECHNs.

Like SWEET music borne upon the waters,
melloWed b Distance, cones the Eioaning OF
Black-RepDlicsn presses and leaders upon
the ears OF sn honest men. Their triumph
last Novsm1sf. which they fondiy deemed
would be fn5i ini lasting, has turned to Desd
Sea ashes on their lips; and the labors, vii
lsiniss, expressions, plumbers, frauds and per-
sscuti0nE, OF q wsnton, causeless war Of
thirty years pon the people Of The South,
which they hEs waged, are found TO be re-
sultess. In ts day Of victory, they are de-
fsated. In tb hour Of triumph, they BOD that
they are testoTed. In the moment OF fan
eied security, whsle dreaming of rlbbsries
past a1d gl0sttg in auticipitation sTer aug
meuted robbsus 70 come, they are suddenly
awakened, and their utter amszement and
CONSERVATION, earn that their intended viz
tim has escapd their grasp Nay more
that be has set D for himself-that bis ban
nsr flaps gloriolsy in the breezes Of heaven,
bidding defsnte h ell foes-that his domain
bristl-s with batouets aud looks black with
fr0WninE cannCn-thst the steady tramp Of
armed legions are constantly hear6-that De

last restige o. Hsck-Rspublcsn commerce

No wonder, tboa. that The Biack-Rspubliesn
They have reason Their prey has escaped
from hem, and thsy are beginning to discover
that, step by stsP, thy Will Be compelled 70

and agreed half-wsy to The proposition that
"militsrT necessity" might jus. " the pro-

dered. The remainder were to enforced
and provisioned, and ihe revenues were to BE-
collected at al hazards.
Within few days reports have become rife
that "milltsry necessitv'' would constraiI the
surrender OF Forf Picksns. Ihese reports
made the Chicago Tribuns perfectly furious, az
the following article, from that paper Of The
26th ut viii demsnstraiss
"The people of the loyal States may pos
pfblv submit quietly 10 tbe humiliation Of sr
evacuation Of Foft Sumter. That. at Least
seems to be a military necessity. The supply
af provisions Is nsfrly exhausted, and military
suiharities assert that neither provisions nor
reluforcsments en- be thrown into ik without
the aid Of greairf force than is at the Presi-
dents command. But such IL not true Of FoTi
