the fact as the managers of these societies
themselves. The anti slavery tracts, anti-slayery
speeches and books are no longer sought afser,
while the donations from the ancient maiden
ladies and long faced Puritans have all beea
cut of. This applies to all grades of abolition
lists and anti slavery agitators Of the North: it
Is impossible for them to obtain followers evea
in New England. The contest to decide the
permanency of the government has forced them
into seclusion from which the cessation Of hos
hlities will not bring them forth.

in reference to slave propert.v The constitu-
tonal rights Of loyal slavehclos,rs will be re-
spected, while the slaves, in comme.n with the
other property Of rebels in arms against the
government, will be liable to confiscation, IL
will be no part Of the policy Of the govern
ment to instruct them, if seized, in the offices Of
q servile insurrection, and then turn them loose
upon slaveholding community "spiked," or
prompted to deeds of violence.
Under the limitations Of q wise and HUI
name policy, we have no doubt that the
decision of Gen. Butler, in regard to the
slave property of rebels, will, il generally
adopted, prove an element of immense strength
to the government in the work of suppres.ing
this Southern ineurrection. In the fact that
some forty odd slaves seeking refuge In the
Generals camp near Fortress Monroe have
been already appropriated as contraband Of
war, and have been set to work in the trenches,
we suspect the rebellion In Virginia has re-
ceived staggering blow. And thus, between
a policy of magnanimity in regard to servile
nsurrectons and the stern justice Of war In
reference to the slave property of rebels, with
out goipg farther, we anticipate speedy COT
lapse of this Boosting and insolent, but really
foolish and feeble Southern insurrection.
