net in Europe. The reflections anu couhSel
of the distinguished prelate will be read with
interest. He said in closing

Cod. for some design of his own, which future
generations will appreciate, has permitted this
calamity to scourge the country in order to
bring from those results benefit to the whole
human race. These are circumstances the
results of which no man can fathOm. = =
Volunteers have been appealed to, and they
have answered tins appeal; but for my own
part, if | had voice i'll the councils of the
nation, | would say, let volunteers continue
and the draft be made. If three hundred
thousand men be not sufficient, let three hum
dred thousand more be called upon, so that
the army, in its fulnesS of strength, shall be
always on hand for any emergency. This Is
not cruelty; this is mercy; this is humanity-
anything that will put an end to this dragging
of human blood across the whole surface of
the country. Then every man, rich and poor,
will have to take his share; and it ought not
to the government to plead with the people,
to call upon them to come forward, and to ask
If they will permit themselves to be drafted.
No; but the people themselves should insist
upon being drafted, and be allowed to bring
this unnatural strife to close. Other efforts
will be made on the other side; and who can
blame them, since they have cast their die on
the issue. But, any way, this slow, lingering
waste of human life should be cut short. In
the meanwhile it is enough for us to weep over
| this calamity; it is enough for us to pray TO
God that it be brought to an end. 1t is enough
for us to make sacrifice of everything to
/ sustain the Oowpr and the authoritV and the
unity of the only government that we profess
| to acknowledge. But it is not necessary to
hate our opponents, nor to be cruel in the bat
| tie; it is necessary to be brave, to be patriot
ic--to do that is what the country needs, and
for this God will give us His blessing a
recompenSe for diScharging our duty without
| violating any Just laws, divine or human.

On Sunday last, Archbishop Hughes de-
livered his first sermon since returning from
his semi-diplomatc mission to Europe. It
was an interesting, and, as coming from the
recognized head of one branch of the chris
tan church on this continent, an important
statement upon public affairs. Referring to
the discretionary mission with which he was
charged, to the discouragements which met
him the moment he landed in Europe. from
the fact that public opinion was already so
strongly set against the federal government.
he says =
''There was time when this country was
on the point of being attacked by foreign
force-it was a critical moment. The time
passed; the opportunity was lost, owing to
divided councils and mutual jealousies not
from any sense of the injustice involved in
the undertaking, but because it could not COM
mand the unity of power and the support of
the whole people. That time passed away.
1t was soon felt that the opportunity was lost
ana then came the second phase, which was
mutual selt-congratuaton that if Europe abb
stained from intermeddling, Americans would
themselves accomplish their own work of diyi-
SION without costing a penny to any other
state"
The cause of the change in public feeling
aoroad-trom strong desire to intervene
ana close the war, to the feeling of indifTer-
ence or opposition to such policy which
now preyails-was not very clear. But the
archbishop attaches great weight to the fact
that the change was simultaneous with the
reports Of astounding armies sprinping spon-
taneously from the very soil, from every city
and village, and hamlet, so that where tboro
was before less than fifty thousand men tbcro
had succeeded six or seven hundred thousand
These made a stronger impression than tho
views Of any statesman in Europe or America
could produce, He does not allude to the
moral effect Of the new armada of gunboats,
soon to be launched, the existence of which
though possibly unknown to the archbishop,
has probably blanehcd every unfricndly cab.

Time is of the utmost importance in the organi-

"The utmost despatch is required. Cor Andrelv
The undersigned has received enlistment papers
for company for nine months service, to form
part of a new Worcester County regiment.
The quota OF this city, under the call, will be
nearly four hundred, and there is not an hour to
lose.
There are hundreds of young men in this city who
had plausible reasons for not giving three years TO
their country, but who have no reasonable excuse
from giving nine months.
Nine months is not much to Offer to save the very
existence of the institutions which have reared
you.
What will you say TO your children's children
when they say to you, "a great contest was waged
between Law and Disorder Freedom and Slavery,
and yon tcere not there"
Criticism is idle without action. If we EXPECT the
government to make war in earnest, we must be in
earnest ourselves.
1t is not proposed that this company should wait
for the leisure of undecided men, Have not sixteen
months of war given time enough for deiberation?

CRUEL PERFIDY.-It has been said that the
negroes who were employed in cutting the
Vicksburg ditch were sent back to their mas
tiers after the work was suspended. We can
not believe that this is true; but if it be true,
we will risk the charge of NEGRO sympathy
by denouncing it as an act of bad faith, as
impoltic as it was cruel. Whatever may be
the doubts about employing negroes, there
can be no sort of doubt that when they are
employcdin our service, in whatever capacity,
they should not be returned to rebel masters
He who strikes willing, cheerful blow for
the Union, be he slave or free whether he
strikes with the sword or the spade. should be
held to unfit man for base seryitude. and
entitle him to the use Of the muscles and sim
ews which have once been employed for the
Union. Henry ", before the battle of Agin-
court, is made to say,

Shall be my brother; be he meier so vile
This day shall gentle his condition.
