FRIDAY, MARCH IA, 1859.
INDEMNITY AND SECURITY.
Unless the end Of this war brings indem-
nifty for'tlle past and security for the fu-
tue, it will have been wased by the North
in vain, and the work will remain to be
done all over again at q time when the
country may not be so able or prepared as
now. What cpcoplc want, is moral cer-
tainty Of tranquil future, and national
per1nancnce; they also want the costs Of
the great suit wen by them, ta1ed on the
property Of those who appealed to the ar
bitrament Of the sword. In other words,
the rebels must be made to pay the ex-
pcnse of the war. Future peace and
tranquility cannot be attained save by
confscation Of the estates Of the rebel
Shareholders, and the emancipation Of their
slaves. # the traitors be permitted to re-
tain their plantations and slaves, it will re-
quire standing army Of 10000 men to
hold them in subsection to law and to
prevent fresh attempts at revolt. Those
men will be breeding mischief and hatch
ing conspiracies cternally- Their hearts
are filed with hatred Of free society and
deadly malice towards Northern people.
They will Keep the whole South in 3 fever
ish, Giscontented, and mutinous condition.
They will never aispair Of obtaining re-
ycngc on their corqucrors, and never cease
preparing and watching for favorable op-
rorturity to spring ct the throat Of the
Union and strans1e it The social and po-
litical rule Of The slave master in the South
will be more comprehensive and remorse-
less than ever before. His control over
the public opinion of the South will be,
Us heretofore, supreme
If the rebels be restored by amnesty to
their estates and slaves, they will feel 10
gratitude to the Administration The slave
holder is a stranger to such a sentiment for
lenicncy he will consider the recovery
OF Lis lands and slaves as no more than
his due, and he will ascribe to fear, aud not
TO favor, the act Of restoration. In exact
proportion to the fayors and concessions
bestowed upon him, will be his contempt
for the people Of The North. All sacrifices
made to l;lacatc Shareholders are regarded
by item us so many of their "a II shts'' re-
turned, Of which they had been uulustlv
deprived; and their anger wakes hotter in
proportion to the extent Of the concessions
made, because the gifts were not sooner be-
slowed! This is in accordance with the
essence Of slavery, which is war against
human nature and the inal;eaablc rights Of
man. II is a system Of arbitrary repression.
in which one man, in his lus: for dominion
over lis fellow, trains himself into The be-
lief that the other has NJ rights that he is
bound 10 respect. It makes him look VIII,
evi: eye upon third pcrscnswho do not sane
ton Ills tyranny over Ills fellow man and
call It right. he can brook no restraint
upon his Own arbitrary viii, and can tolerate
no authority but his own mandates. He
commands, and it is for others to obey Ee
consur1es: and it is fer others to produce,
without 1cccmpcrsc or hope Of reward.
With the STAKEHOLDER the la5oreT is cnti-
lied to ro hirc-no1hing but what tue horse
or the OK gt:ts-merc animal sl.stcnance.
Hence, the Shareholder can never live at
peace in society that lie docs 40! rule with
absolute sway. 10 compromises satisfy,
no sacrifices paciiy him, save unconditional
submission to his dietation- The day after
the rebellion is PVT down, if the slave mas
ters bc restored TO their possessions, they
will begin to lay tie foundation for another
revolt Of greater magnitude and certainty
Ct SUCCESS. Slavery is constant. sleep
less treason against Free Government.
Slavery can never be loyal to Lib
cr;y, To 1s lt;y;l is 10 cinaneirato

Union with Liberty caa endure for count

Northern E.en who advocate rcstora-
lion Of tic gul..l win slavery, are enemies
to tic i:cacc and concord of 1heis, country;
they src ndvoc==1ts If future diseor.ls and
new rcbelliops: 7ley are aavc7saries of
National an1iss and :;s.Tets1itr. The only
solution Of lie National trouble The only
permanent, efficient curc fur the terrible
disease preying on the body polite, is to
purge slavery cut Of The Republic, give
compensation or ransnm to loyal masters,
and cnGdseate the lands and slaves Of the
traitors, sell the oae 10 loyal citizens and
confer freedom on the otler This remedy
will cure the National disease It alone is

terminate in making matters worse,
Take a plantation OF 5000 acres belong

each; sell llem to the highest loyal bidder:
for part cash and the remainder in annua
