The c6tornment and sIa-
very.
Prom tho Regular Correspondent OF the
Evening Pos

Colonel John Cochrane' 5
speech to his troops on the Sla
very question attracts much at
tention here. He took strong
gouDd for the overthrow Of negro
Slavery on this continent, to pre-
vent future rebellions in the inter-
est Of Slavery, and as an abso-
Lutte military necessity at the pres
ent time. The fact that Secreta-
~ Cameron was present, and al
ter listening to the speech dis
tinctlv declared his approval OF
it is very significant. The Ad.
ministr2tion is fully decided on
its policy respecting the instution
Of Slavery in the South. 1t will
not set the army at the work OF
catching runaway slaves; and il
Slavery stands in the way Of Tn
ION it will be crushed out. In
other words, the whole question
VIII be decided by the military
necessities Of the hour. This
is John Cochrane's doctrine, and
thrt oil some OF the more prom
inent Democrats in the volunteer
army.
