On Wednesday night Capt. Montgomery

surprised at Keittsville, Barre County, by
$50 rebels, supposed to belong to McBride's
division, but who represented themselves as
Texan Rangers. They fred into the house
occupied by our men, killing two and wound

the balance fed, taking with them about 20
horses. Two wagons. loaded with suffers

Gen. Price has burned several public build
ings at Fayetteville, including the arsenal, a
lead factory. several Touring mills and l00,-
600 lbs. of flour. Many of the inhabitants
along the road have fed, being deceived by
the lies of Price that all would be butchered.
A strong Union feeling was exhibited among
those remaining. An old soldier of 1912
brought out Union flag, long kept concealed.
1t is feared that the combined forces OF

between 5000 and 900 men, and four gun
boats, anchored off the town. It has been
completely invested by our troops. Some
skirmishing has ensued. Several OF our men
have been killed by shells thrown from tho
rebel gunboats. When we came within range
our officers are confident of an early and
complete victory if the enemy's gunboa,s are

Fellow Citizens of the Senate and House OF
Representatives

Fello,o Citizens of the Senate and House of
Representatives
recommend the adoption Of joint reoo-
luton by your honorable bodies which shall
be substantially as follows:
Resolred, That the United States ought to cooperate
with any State which may adopt gradual abolition Of
slavery giving to such State pecunary aid to be used by
veniences public and private, produced by such change
Of system.
II the proposition contained in the resolu-
tion does not meet the approval Of Congress
and the country, there is the end but if it
does command such approval l deem it Of
Importance that the States and people imme-
diately interested should be at once distinct
y notified of the fact so that they may begin
to consider whether to accept or reject it,
The federal government would find its high
est interest in such measure as one of the
most efficient means of self preservation
The leaders Of the existing insurrection en-
tertain the hope hat the government will ul-
timately be forced to acknowledge the indie
pendence of some part of the disahected re-
gion, and that all the slave States north Of
such parts will then say "the Union for which
we have struggled, being already gone, we
now choose to go with the Southern section. "
To deprive them Of this hope substantial
ly ends the rebellion, and the initiation of the
emancipation completely deprives them Of it,
as to all the States initiating it,
The point is not that all the States toler-
ating slavery would very soon, if at all, ini-
tiate emancipation, but that while the offer is
equally made to all, the more Northern shall
by such initiation make it certain to the more
Southern that in no event will the former ever
join the latter in their proposed Confederacy.
| say " initiation" because, in my judgment
gradual and not sudden emancipation is bet
ter for all. In the mere financial or pecu-
mary view any member of Congress. with the
census tables and the treasury reports before
him can readily see for himself how very soon
the current expenditures Of this war would
purchase, at fair valuation, all the slaves in
any named State.
Such proposition on the part of the gem
eral Government sets up no claim of right by
the Federal authority to interfere with slave
ry within State limits, referring as It does the
absolute control Of the subject in each case to
the State and its people Immediately nteres-
ted. 1t is proposed as a mater Of perfectly
free choice with them.
