~
Gen. Hunter is taking hold Of matters
In lis department, with an energy and
resolution in striking contrast with the
do-nothing policy Of his predecessor. He
finds himself surrounded by q loyal colored
population, willing and anxious to aid the
Inion cause by all means in their power.
The blacks are an devoted to the Union.
The hot and sickly season is approaching
The period Of yellow fever-nore fatal to
Northern men than the armed hordes OF
JEFF. Davis-win shortly be upon our troops
in South Carolina. Gen. Hunter was sent
to Port Royal to put down the rebellion in
South Csrolina, Georgia and Florida, and
restore the National authority: His regular
force is inadequate to the task before the
ackly season arrives. He must employ
all the means within his reach to accom-
nlish the orte1s Of his Government. He
desires to saye the LIVES Of his brave soldiers
as much IS possible, and consequently lie
must call to bis assistance the loyal part
of The population in his Department, and
be cannot stop to inspect their complexion.
These people can resist yellow fever and
will fight under white officers braFe}y.
Their services will save the lives Of thou
sands Of Gen. Hunters Northern soldiers
who otherwise must fall victims to fatal
fever. He therefore acts the part Of q pa
uiot and agcncral. The only questions he
asks about the volunteers who are focking
to his standard are these: Are they loyal
men, friends Of the Union? Are they ca
pable Of performing military duty, and
willing TO risk their lives in defense of the
Government? This policy systematically
carried out, will speedily put an end to the
rebellion st its fountain. head. In South
Carolina it was hatched to promote slavery.
Il would be divine retribution if loyal
slaves crushed it out in South Carolina,
And who will raise their voices against
Gen. Hunter, in the Eorths The seces-
sionists, and synpatlizers Of the rebels
All over the South the slaves arc
forced to perform military service
for the rebels They are worked on forti-
fcations, and are made to handle the can
non whose discharges slay OUT brave sol
diers. They perform the dEudgely Of the
rebel camps, thus increasing the power Of
their army; they raise the produce that feeds
their troops, ana the crops on which their
s'Ccnfederate Scrip is rendered current;
they are the mainstay Of the rebellion, up
holding it upon their unwilling shoulders
Dastard}y donghfaces have no word Of cen
sure for these uses to which the rebels pu
the blacks In their eyes it is all right
and legitimate, but if any Of those loya
colonel men escape to our lines from theI
ttaitorous taskmastess, the cry straightwaJ
issues from the craven throats of secession
Empathizcrs, that the Constitution i
violated" and "the Union is destroyed
All sincerely loyal and patriotic Cnio1
men will heartily sustain Gen. Hunter ii
The policy be is reported to have adopted
for dealing with, and crushing the rebellion
