Ing infsmies IN the chalked out programme Of
nortberu A-boitiorists. CA,IERoN's letter o in-
strgcd0ns 10 Gu. Z. W. SHERNAS. the com
msnjer-iu-chist Of lie Land forces of the great
naval expedition that hzs bes1 recently di7Fstoh-
q n pins.e, destroy and burn slong tbe south
srn coast, shows the true intenton OF the hrsrt-
less monsters who are melting this war Of eE-
termination against the people Of tho South.
We clip from this extraordinary document, which
we ind in the Chicago Tribune OF q late dat
the following very significant extract. Tie
Christian world VIII read ii witha feeling Of dis
gust and disapprobation that VIII be shocking to
their moral seusibi5ties. i says
You will avai yourself Of the service Of anu
persons, whether or moi f8giiyes from labor, who
may offer themselves to the national government
and employ them ia such services a. they may
b. suited for, either as ordinary employees. or.
L special circumstances seem to require it, IN ang
Oa4cr capacity, riai such organisation Ia squads,
f0HyI1ies, or OtberniSS, as Y0U may deem
beneficial 10 the service. This, however, IS not
20 be q general arming Of them for military
@e-yice. Loyal masters are to be assured that
Congress viii provide Just compensation for the
.oss OF service Of persons SO employed"
i Is quite manifest from this, that a system
stic effort al Instruction among the negroes of
the South, with a repetition of all the revolving 1
horrors Of the ST. Domingo massacre, is the
order Of the day with the unpnncipled autbor-
Ges of the Lincoln government. They design
1- a -..A Ill Ill "a ]
saber, against us in this waT. One Thousand OF
aose deluded creatures, stolen by that szpe-
leuced uegrothief BUTLER, at Fortress Monroe,
have already been impressed into service. and
accompany the marauders for the purpose Of dis
patching the heavy labor 10 lee performed IN
throwing up Publications aud earth works ia
case they ever aye so fortunate as .l gel a foot
hold on our coast CAMERON instructions,
given Of course with tn fun appc5batiou and
consen, Of the Lincoln Cabinet, authorize their
employment with as many Others as may be
stolen, "aa any OlsT eaPar'g, dhl saaA Orgaai-a
u0u IL squads, companies or oabrrciss, as may b.
deemed beneficial to the service"
j. tle hopeless scheme OF subiugatou can be-
apparently aided by sruling them with butcher
knives, pick-az1s and tomahauks, and tuning
them loose upon their uuoiendiug masters to ell
gage in indiscrimate slaughter, well and good.
The vie congregation Of dss.aTds at Washington
vii Doubles wink at, If they do not venture to
applaud The movement. That We are not wrong
in our Interpretation Of this document, We need
bu. appeal to the general understanding Of #
suaonc the Ab0litiOnists Of tbe North themselves.

This rsbii sboliion sheet thinks that IL some
respects he order Of the Washington government ]
is more radical than FRENoNT's proclama- .
ton, which. as viii be remembered, met with y
such an earnest protest from LINCOLN and his
advisers, only because it was a Ht3le in advance
Of public sentiment in the States Of Missouri, D
Kentucky, sud Maryland. The latter, the 6
