Emancipation

The President has issued a proclama-
ton declaimi free the slaves@of all reb
els who are found opposing the Govern
rnent of the United States on the lst day
of January 1868 The document will be
found in another-place in this paper, to
which we invite the attention of our read
ers.
This is unquestionably the most impor-
tant step taken by President Lincoln since
his inauguration into the Presidential
Chair 1t has neither been done hastily
nor IN malice Whatever else may be said
of President Lincoln, none can say other
than he was lenient toward those IN rebel
lion against the Government They have
been warned repeatedly of the probable
necessity for just such q course as this
proclamation indicates, and earnestly but
ance to the government, but no heed has
been paid to his counsels
To large portion of the loyal people
Of the north, this Proclamation has not
come too soon nor in too strong language.
It has for months been apparent to many
that such course was called for 10 aid in
ihe suppression ofthe rebellion BY such
this step will be hailed with gratitude to
the Chief Magistrate as one that Will has
ten a termination of the contest between
the two portions of the country We have
filth to believe that the President has act
Cd wisely. That he has acted honestly
none can doubt. The great majority of
those who are loyal to the Government
will now feel that in fighting the battles
Of the country they are now engaged in
splitting their blood for the protection of
slavery or for Il Q ultimate benefit Of the
enemies Of the government. That the reb-
OILS would free their slaves and arm them
for the overthrow Of our Government II
they dare TO place arms in their hands
needs no proof beyond what has already
transpired If the emancipation of their
slaves viii tend to weaken their cause and
hasten n termination o. hostilities, we are
satisfied That such is the belief Of the
President and his advisers, we have no
doubt, and Delieveing this we are willing
to await the result

The LIE gislature

adjourned on Friday. \ Bill was passed
extending AID to the families of Volun-

moeracy refused TO provide the means for

They could not face the Indignation of
our brave soldiers by refusing 10 vote for
the aid bill, but could kill its effects By re-
fusing to vote Cor the means for paying

The Republican Convention held in this

od-twentE nine Of the thirty delegates
being in attendance The best of feeling
was manifested among the friends of the
different candidates. While each did his
best for his favorite all manifested a cheer
ful willingness to aquiesce with the wishes
of the majority. The nominee of the
Convention-Col AMAsA CoBB-was so
well known to the delegates, that even
those who cast their votes for others, we're
ready to admit his superior qualifications
for the position, and we are inclined to the
opinion that none regretted that the choice
Of the Delegates secured his success be
