the District of Columbia,

A new state OF things exists in this commun-
ity, and important events seem to be rapidly
approaching. The blessings of freedom are
spr!nging up In the path OF d war OF rebellion
and treason. The contra bands IN this District
are already numerous, and their numbers are
constantly Increasing, as others come in from
the adjacent rebel State Of Virginia, como fee,
ing from rebel masters 30 avoid being sent
farther south others escaping from the want
ana pflyat!on now being SO severely felt in
those portions Of the country devastated by the
rebels themselves, Ur by contending armies.
They are OF both sexes and of all ages, from
the tender infant to men and women grown gray
ana feeble in slavery They flee to this Dis
trict in all the wretchednesa and poverty Incl
dent to their former condition as chattels, hun
gry,and IN rags,thcir whole appearance pitcous-
ly appealing Tor succor. Ignorant Of the world
long trained to concealment and deception they
are fearful of every white face until assured Of
sympathy and kindness.
1t is work of true philanthropy and
christian benevolence to relieve the wants and
educate the minds of this people-chdren of
that God who - hath made of one blood all
nations Of men - and for this purpose this
Association has been formed 1t proposes to
act in harmony with the Government Of the
United States, but to do much which the
Government does not and cannot well undertake
viz to furnish them with clothing, temporary
homes, and employment, to teach them TO read
and write, to give them such advice and counsel
as they may need, and bring them under moral
and religious influences.
To this end the Association so!icits for the
oppressed class calicoes shirtings hannels, and
garments for women, girls, and infants and
money to aid in carrying out the objects above
set forth.
The Office and Depository of the association
is at No. Is Four-and-a half street, one door
south Of DR.. Sunderland s Church.

rebellion, acts that are widely different as well
as to tie agents 10 be employed, as to the laws
that are to govern them. The suppression o.
the rebellion is the business Of the executive
power OF the Nation, the President, whose
duty it is to see the laws, which the rebels defy
executed as we'll at the South as at the North
In doing this, OF course, he is aided by Congress
| and all departments Of the Government and by
the people, in furnishing the best agencies for
the purpose. And in reaching this end, the
suppression Of rebellion, there can be no doubt
that the President is entirely right in saying,
that all " Indispensable means ~ ought to be
and will be rcsorted to and if, in the Judgment
OF the President, the total abolition Of Slavery
should be- regarded as an indispensable means,''
we think there can be no doubt that " the high
er law - OF self-preseryation, which has ever
oeen held to override all laws and constitutions,
would be a tulland complete justification of such
an act. But this question as to what NAV be
indispensable in quelling Instruction, is not in
the power of Congress 10 decide, unless it be as
an advisory matter, and not as an act of legisla-
ton.
But the punishment. OF treason is quite an
other thing from the suppression of rebellion,
spHnglng from different motives, controlled by
different reasons, to be used by an entirely
different branch of the Government. governed
by entirely different considerations, and much
more restricted in its operations: and becau Sc,
in the one case, we believe that g indispensable
means " may be rightfully used, it by no means
follows that the constitutional barriers must not
be scrupulcusly and religiously regarded in the
other. And, we believe the Constitution gives
Congress all the power needed to punish treason,
both to answer the ends of justice, and to pro-
vent, as far as any law could, a repetition of
the terrible crime that has so defaced our his
tory. And without discussing particularly
the extent Of this power, let US consider the
objects to be reached by its exercise:
First among these objects we reckon the pre-
vention of such crimes in future. The extent
of the punishment is moi to be measui ed by the
wishes, or dispositions, or threats Of the rebels.
The Government. must, of course, limit itself to
whatit is capable of doing, but, beyond that, its
chief object should be how best to punish trail
tors this time, so that similar crop Of traitors
may not confront the Government again. This
opens to us field Of inquiry, quite too extern
sive for this article, and We are obliged TO defer
its discussion till another time.
