FRIEND CoyER:-I have seen and read
the message Of Abraham the honest, and
can fin. no fault with it, IL is 4 mild, i'm
Vanished, truthful, able dok-u-ment, IN
which there is nothing said about wiping
out slavery, cutting the throats Of slave
holders, and giving their country to the
niggefs, as a certain preacher, and many
Others / wot Of, wish done. | did expect
the honest old creature would recommend
to Congress some measure Of settlement,
but after reading the message and reflect
ing upon the subject, | found that be was
right in not doing 50. All he can do is to
put the rebels through As fast as possible,
but Congress may, and | think ought 70
propose some constitutional amendment,
which if adopted, would repress the slavery
question.
The amendment suggested in my COM
munication to you Of the 9Th inst, / have
the vanity to believe, would be al that
would be necessary, and that would be no
compromise or concession, but merely der
tidEdtOf1 u Wtdb AAAI SDtt9AAtNAl0h A~tStt3 -
| know that the Republican party is OPP
posed to any compromise or concession,
which will involve the acknowledgment
that Congress has no power to legslate for
territories, but as it is plain to me that
Congress has no such power, and as there
is great difference Of opinion on the sub
iect, it would Be better, / think, to have
the matter settled beyond any future cayil.
| have been out in the wars once, and
fought and bled, &c, in my country's
cause, but still am mighty sceary, and |
fear, If Congress don't do something at this
present meeting, that viii tend to settle the
trouble, the remainder of tho slave States
will leave, and then we may give up the
ship, the Union can Hsver be restored, and
if even one State Is suffered to leave, |
wouldn't give three coppers for the remain
der; the whole or none overtime.
Yours very respectfully,

The excellent army correspondent Of tho
Providence Journal, in describing the
amusemcnts INDUCED ia by the First
Rhede Island Regiment, at Camp Sprague.
near Washington, when of duty, gives the
following humorous account Of a race for
and capture Of CREASED PIG by the vol
unteers:
The poor porker, closely shncd and
thoroughly Fabricated from snout to tail,
was conveyed 20 the arena in covered
box. Pteous added was the expression
Of bis iGaocent face when, uncaged, he was
turned atriit. Unknowing his destiny, he
slowly stepped from his prison, grunting
satisfaction at release. But with = whoop
ten incamate fiends rushed madly forward
and endeayored to clutch his prehensile
tail. Piggy, Of a sudden, awckc to real
ling sense Of bis Posidon, and darted of.
uncertain where . 60, and emitting the
most doleful squeals. Herushe1 here, and
secuted there, having no respect for tho
legs Of any one, and routing people IN ev-
cry direction. The men persist ig, hot
and eager. were desperate in the chase
They grabbed and caught only to find their
efforts futile. No sooner would the prize
appear to be won than il was lost. The
difficulty Of the capture was enhanced by
its beng allowable only to hold the animal
by his unctuous appendage- any Other
method being ruled out. The feat appear
ed impossible, but one man sublimely rose
whose intellect was adequate to the per7
formaRee OF the feat lie showed himself
to be the very Napoleon Of pig-chasen ----
He SCARED supreme at the arduousness of
the task, and Watching for an opportunity
threw himself bodily on the victim, and
seized the tail between his teeth. The
squealing was terrific, but was drowned in
the shiieks Of laughter that were undoubt
edly heard in Washington. Whp cot tho
pig! Why marine OF course.

When they did obtain a supply, il
was go scanty that they had to bc
put upon half allowance. From q
want Of tho means of transportation
they had to leave their baggage be.
hind, and were, hence, compelled tc
sleep in the open air without tents
They at length obtained their bag
gage, and are now comfortably en-
camped at Muldraugh hill, in com
pany with some fifteen or twenty
other regiments. Our readers wil
