FREED BY oUR AaNY.


Negroes are hOcking in from Virginia By
hundreds. 1t is estimated that at least one
tenth of the servile population in this section
are freed by the retreat of the rebels All
entertain the notion that their freedom fol-
lows the advance of our armies. One gang
Of twenty-five arrived this morning.
THB SITUATION AT czxrREvIILH.
Ali who have been to Oentrevills agree
that there was but the shadow of en- army
there. No heavy guns were ever mounted,
except wooden ones. The intrenchments on
the flank and rear were feeble. The rail-
road to Manassas is of poor construction
On one half of burnt car was a complete
printing Office.
Trees are cut down SO as to disclose the
plains of Manassas. A part of the huts were
burned, part standing. Among spoils re-
naming were thousand hides, near fac
tory Of tallow.
A deserter says they had a regular mail
from Washington via Alexandria, twice or
three times a week.
Near Centreville is great horse cemetery
with hundreds of exposed carcasses, With
aocks Of vultures lowering over them.

Although the act of 1914 has left many an
unsavory odor attached to the name of a
bankrupt law, yet there are very cogcnt rea-
sons for passing permanent statute, opera
tive throughout the country. The interests
of creditors demand it as loudly as those Of
debtors, and both classes will be benefited
to have the financial wrecks Of our recent pam
les cleared away. A memorial has been got
up in New York in favor Of the measure, set
ting forth in strong terms the great need Of
it, the sound policy which calls for its adop-
ton, and the reasons for prompt action. 1t
has been very numerously signed by the
leading business men Of the city, and is &C
accompanied with bankrupt act framed by
the best legal talent, for the consideration of
Congress. The following extract from the
New York memorial speaks words of truth:
''The debtor is still required to pay, while
the creditor will not allow him to accumulate
capital for the transaction of business, nor
permit him to borrow of friend and invest
it in trade. Honesty is not the best policy
for him. "A character for integrity is worse
than useless for if he can point to pure
and spot ess life-if he can show that his in
dustry, integrity and ability in the various
situations in which he has been placed, have
been unimpeachable-hi creditors will grasp
their claims with more tenacity under be-
lief that they can yet wiring something from
i's hard earnings, or from the sympathy of
friends or relatives. If, however, a debtor is |
reputed to be dishonest, dissipated, and gen.
orally dissolute in his habits, his creditor is
always ready and willing to compromise for
his claim, and take anything he can get, un-
der the belief that if he does not take what
IS offered, he will not obtain anything"
