THE DIFFERENCE.

Many of our prominent citizens aFs
Just now occupying cold, narrow. un-
comfortable cells in the prisons Of Rich
mond, Montgomery. and other Southern
cities. for no crime but loyalty 10 tn.
Union. and patriotic zeal in support o
the Government.
Suffering from cold. hunger, and sick
ness. they are likewise exposed to al
manner of indignities and insults from
the citizens of that country. whose bru.
tai ferocity 6nds no parallel in the world
Those of our friends who have private
means can obtain enough to sustain life,
but the poor must bear the ills of prison
life as best they can.
How widely different the situation o
the traitors in Forts Warren and La
fayette. The choicest viands deck their
tables. The finest wines sparkle in their
glasses. The softest beds of down are
occupied by them, on which to repose
their bodies wearied by the endless
routine Of feasting upon the rich dain-
lies furnished by the prominent citizens
of New York and Boston. Ex-Minis-
ter Faulkner received in one day thirty
turkies and hampers of wines, grapes
and choice fruits. The arch traitors
Mason and Slidell. are likewise over
burdened by costly donations of every
delicacy calculated to render their i'm
prisonment less irksome and tedious
The contrast is as strong as the facts are
undeniable. 1t is monstrous injustice
to such men as Colonels Corcoran, Lee,
and others, who now occupy the cells
Of common felons. 1t is not necessary
to treat the denizens of Fort Warren
with indignity or cruelty, but little
less toadyism or maudlin sympathy on
part of our Northern citizens, might
probably bring about some amelioration
Of the hard lot now being endured by
the prisoners in the hands Of Southern
demons. Their fate is a hard one at
best, bat surely aggravated by knowl-
edge that those by whom it was brought
about are kindly and Hospitality treated,
and the rigors Of prison made pleas
ing and agreeable. Until our men are
treated as human beings when taken
captive by this implacabIe enemy, we
see no good reason for Withholding from
the traitors every thing but conscious
ness Of their being literally prisoners.
AT present they are but guests. Let it
cease, unless the war is to be unceas-
ing.

DISPOSITION OF THE REBEL FoRcE

DISPOSITION OF THE REBEL FORCES
IN WESTERN VIReINIA--The Rich
mond Examiner Of the 12lh says:
A rumor was in the city some DAYS
ago that Gen. Floyd and his command
were to be transferred TO Kentucky,
and this was followed BY the confident
though contradictory report yesterday
that the army in Western Virginia was
to be transferred to South Carolina.
We are unable to give the facts on
which these rumors have been prob
ably based as some sort of foundation.
Gen. Floyd is not, as far as been yet
determined. to be transferred from
Western Virginia. He has been
ordered into winter quarters at New
born, near the Virginia and Tennessee
Railroad. At the same time that these
orders were sent out Col. Starke's
regiment was detached, with Col. DON
nelson's Tennessee Brigade, to proceed
to Bowling Green, Ky. That order
has been reversed. and these forces
will at once repair TO South Carolina
and report there to Gen. Lee.

@ The city of Charleston, South
Carolina, has been almost entirely de.
stroyed by FIRE. As usual it is altrib.
uted to incendiarism. 1t is a remarka-
BILE fact that the very heart of the city
should be the scene of this terrible dis.
sster. All the public buildings ~ -yer'
as fashionable residences have passed
away. The pestilent Offices of the
Mercury and Courier, that for months
past have given birth to the most out
rageous treason and falsehoods. shared
the same fate. The Hibernian Hall,
where the first infapous ordinance Of
secession was passed in December,
1860. is now a smouldering heap OF
ruins. The Hall in which met the
Democratic Convention that slaugh-
tered Douglas. had to yield to the ter
rible destroyer. The destruction OF
these fountain heads Of secession might
be taken as an omen OF the utter fail.
ure Of the rebel cause.
In former days so terrible a calamity
would meet with sympathy, and prompt
relief from the whole country, and do
nations Of money. clothing and provis-
ions to the destitute of Charleston.
would flow in an unhroken stream from
all parts Of the North. As the case
now stands. very many will view it as
a righteous judgment from Heaven up
on wicked CITY, within whose limits
this wicked rebellion was concocted
and brought into existence. Whether
caused by negro incendiary. or the
result of accident, one thing is certain,
the citizens of Charleston who went
"wild with joy" at the fall of Fort
Sumpter and the humiliation of the
flag of our Union, are now reaping
the fruits of their deeds, and have the
poisoned chalice commended to their
own lips. II TO this be added the hor-
rors Of q servile insurrection. their sit.
uation is indescribably dreadful.
The JEFF Davis government contrib
uted $3.50. 900 to the relief Of the suf.
ferers, not in money, for that is an ar
ticle as scarce with il as truth and Ioy-
atty, but BY that sum deducted from
the quota of money required from
South Carolina to carry on the war
How it may prove beneficial to the
burnt district, we do not see.

EThA National Inlsllia.n.-r. :,

NThe National Intelligencer calls
attention to the fact that the colombia
lion OF slaves was proposed in Virginia
more than sixty years ago. in conse-
quence of the servile revolt, known
from the name of its leader, as Gabriels
Insurrection. The House Of Delegates
instructed James Monroe, then Cover
nor Of Virginia, to "open a correspon-
denee with the President OF the United
States on the subject of purchasing
lands without the limits OF the State,
whittier persons obnoxious to the laws
or dangerous to the peace of society
may be removed. To Gov. Monroe's
letter, written in obedience to these in
structions, President jefferson, on No
vember "a. 1901. replied. approving
the project and suggested the West In
dies as possessing great advantages for
such purposes. especially st. Domingo,
where the blacks had then established
an Independent sovereignty, and Afri-
ca, as last and undoubted resort, il
all others more desirable should fail
The General Assembly of Virginia re-
newed its request on the subject in
1909. and in 1904 passed resolutions
instructing their Senator'S, &C., "to use
their best efforts for the purpose Of OBJ
tanning from the General Government
a competent portion of territory in the
country of Louisiana then newly ac-
CURED to be appropriated to the resi-
dence of such people of color as have
been, or shall be emancipated in Virgil
MIA, or may hereafter become dangerous
to the public safety" The National
Intelligencer says:
II the comparatively narrow range of
the disturbance created by "Gabriers
Insurrection" raised the question Of COL
onizing such negroes as could no lon
ger be held in state Of servitude, how
much more exigent are the problems
likely to be presented for solution BY
the progress of the pending war?

~ Last accounts from England

dozen Of our great frigates would
rank nearly with the British liners
We have this advantage in naval af-
fairs, our whole force, with a few ex-
ceptions, is concentrated on our own
coast. If there should be war with
England. the blockade would Of course
be raised. and when we gathered up
all our ships from the Rio Grande
around to Hatteras. and turned out
our new gun-boats, our squadron
would be one OF the most formidable

The London Times says, in an arti-
Gle since the war furry commenced,
that although the Federal Navy
scarcely presents dozen worthy an

extreme to despise the power of the
Americans at sea. We have done this

The Mason AND SLIDELL AFFAIR
WASHINGTON, Dec. i9-An absurd
rumor was circulated to-day, that the
Government had decided last evening
to surrender Mason and Slidell. It is
without any foundation whatever. Up
to O'Clock tonight Lord Lyons has
made no communication to the Presi-
dent or Secretary of State relative to
the seizure Of the traitors, Mason and
Slidell.
Mr. Adams. in his communication to
Mr.. Seward. gives clear and detailed
idea of the feelings Of the British
people, and the sentiment Of the
British statesmen, but does not indi-
cate that he knows the purPort Of the
Instructions Of the English Government
to Lord Lyons. Nothing contained in
Mr.. Adams dispatches indicate that
the Government will make any exOrbi-
tant demands relative to the seizure Of
the traitors.
This is not only true, but am per-
mitled to announce By high Official
authority, that private letters received
to-day from Distinguished British states
men, assert that the British Govern
ment will not demand the release Of
Mason and Slidell. but will require
such reparations as the United States
can honorably grant. This is also con-
irmed BY other private correspondence
Of Americans in London, who have
facilities for learning the intentions of
he British Government.

~ Julian Rhett, ESQ. of Son

@ Julian Rhett, Esq. of South
Carolina, a large and wealthy slave
holder, has abseonded in consequence
OF the desecration Of the "sacred soil''
of that State by Northern mudsills.-
Sambo Rhett offers a reward OF $500
for him. payable in cotton or rice, as
Julian deprived him of paying money,
by taking all with him. Now here is a
chance for $500; who wants it? Aside
from the fun Of the thing, we DO not see
why Julian has any more right to run
away from Sambo than Sambo from
Julian. The relation Of slave and mas
ter ought to be mutual. The slave hav-
ing no right to leave the master, neither
ought the master leave the slave. IF
we have Fugitive slave law, ought we
not have a Fugitive master law? Sure
ly the rights Of the relation ara ro~ir---
not. why not? We trust some
Constitution-loving citizen will return
the absquatulator Julian TO his discon-
solaie and faithful Sambo. If not Sam
bo will have to find his own "hog and
homony" and take care of himself,
which of course he cannot do. Will no
one come to his relief and thus not only
do charitable act. but pocket the $500
which Sambo SO generously offers? We
expect" not.
