We Rather Think Not.

The Kentucky Legislature the other
day passed some very complimentary res
olutions to President Lincoln and wound
up by asking him to dispense with the ser
vices of Secretary Cameron, or in other
words turn him out of the cabinet. We
hope the President will 90 no such thing,
at least on the simple asking of the Legis-
lature of Kentucky. The men of that state
who are undertaking to engineer the Pres
ident, and DO to certain extent control
him, are putting on little too much
"cheek" to suit the Northwest For a
State that for months was on the fence
and knew not whether she would 60 with
the North or South, and only came in at
the eleventh hour in support of the Con-
stitution and the Union, we think back
seat far more becoming than a front ons,
Modesty, evidently is not a trait peculiar

say that his resort to personal abuse and
falsehoods displays recklessness Oh his
part that does not speak well for bis de-
cency or discretion.
The statement Of our neighbor, that
1.-THE money received by the Republican
might very properly be called steal, .
shows that his disregard for truth and his
readiness at false accusation, for the pur-
pose of clearing Himself from a true charge,
are equal to the criminality of the robbery
he has perpetrated. BY inquiry of the
Treasurer the people may learn, that VIC
were employed by him to make the origi-
nal publication of the Tax List and that
we did the job for one half the legal fees
The law shows that when a county Boart
orders the publication in foreign Language
the measure is wholly independent of thu
legal publication by the Treasurer.

That it was an outrage On the British

at all, and an especial outrage to board
her.
That the Trent carried an Admiralty

exempted from search.
That not being ship of war, but a
passenger ship, she was not to be molcsted
in her lawful occupations
That Messrs. Mason and Slidell were
not contraband of war, and therefore were
exempt from seizure
That they were contraband of war, and
therefore the San Jacinte ought to have
taken the Trent into port
That to capture the men was an act of
force, and that to have carried them into
port with the vessel would not have been
an act of force.
That they were ambassadors, and as
such, exempt from the operations of war.
That they were private individuals, and
therefore similarly exempt.
That they were refugees, and therefore to

Paymast The decision is, in
effect, that a soldier is entitled to pay
from the day he enlists, and that be is no,

This will be gratifying news to those
soldiers who have had an impression that
their pay did not commence until they
were accepted and mustered into service
by a Government officer. The decision
is no more than right

Have nothing TO do with Slaves CT
Slavery"

The Louisville Journal solves the con-
traband question with admirable facility.
1t says "have nothing to do with slaves or
slavery. The policy Ct Gen. Halleek' s
proclamation is the wise policy, 1t is the
true one. Let no slaves be received at
all. Let them be excluded from our lines.
Let our military have nothing to do with
them. Let slaves and slave owners take
care of their own relations" 1t adds:
"Certainly this is right and expe2ient.
1--WE send an army Of ten thousand men
into the Southern Confederacy, with pro
visions for their support, what good reason
is there, what good reason can there be,
fer our allowing ten thousand or five thou
sand slaves to come in and share the pro-
visions? Why should they be quartered
on us? Are we to own them? Assuredly
not. Are we to employ them as servants
and pay them? Surely not. Our gallant
soldiers understand that they are to take
care of themselves. They are not in want
of niger servants"
Now this has certain FEASIBILITY. But
it overlooks the stubborn fact that slaves
are most valuable military resource to
the enemy, so long as they are repealed by
US and treated as enemies Nothing ca
sier than to say ''let slaves alone" Why
not, with parity of reason, say, ''let rebels
alone? Why should we feed them
The Journal knows full we'll that slaves
are constantly employed as laborers in the
rebel camps-that they dig in their en-
trcnchments, and do heavy work and
drudgery, which would otherwise devolve
on soldiers-that to some extent they have
been armed and organized as soldiers to
fight against us-that they can, in more or
fewer numbers, be made most useful in
every established camp, in an hundred diff
fcrent modes of employment, and would
add proportionably to the physical strength
Of our foress-that thus to encourage and
employ them is to weaken the enemy as
much as the capture of prisoners or the &C
ceptance of desertsrs.
Why should we NEEDLE with rebels
horses? They consume forage Let the
herscs alone to settle their own relations
with their owners. Yet as mere instru-
ment of war, slaves are worth more to the
rebels, and may be made worth more to
US, than twice the number of horses. Why
should we let one alone more than the 9TH
er?
Common sense revolts at a policy SO
stupid. Nobody proposes to quarter all
the fugitive slaves in our camps, but to
use them as we need, and deprive the rsb-
els of them, as we would deprive them of
arms, provisions or means of transporta-
ton. Folly is the only word which can
characterize the refusal to do this. The
rendition of slaves to rebel masters is,
within the terms of definition, treason to
permit them to fall into rebels hands pur-
posely, is palpable, gross neglect of the
pIainest preeepts of military duty.-Mis-
souri, Democrat.
