Whatever may be the issue of this war, the
question how shall dispose of such a proportion
OF the black population for various reasons it
may not be desirable either for them or ourselves
to retain among US, will come up. Various plans
are suggested. Among these is that of facilitating
their emigration to the neighboring island Of Hay

regiment nearly the whole day, and | conversed
with at least fifty Of the officers and men, and there
was but one voice. They say they treated like
dogs, and they are not meal y-mOuthed in saying it.
When they arrived at their present camping ground
it was raining in torrents the colonel took shelter
in the nearest house, and left his regiment in the
drenching rain 36 hours without mouthful to eat.
In tact, the regiment is in state of INSTRUMENTATION
, and nothing but the shortness IF time they have
yet to serve keeps them from boiling. The regi-
ment have received no pay, and they say it is the
fault OF the cnlonel. The privates have exhausted
their little MEANS the officers have sustained them
