How shall tho Rebellion be dealt with!
From the st. Louis Democrat.

1t is time, now that the true course for the
suppression of the rebellion is for the first
time on the eve Of adoption, that all men
should be united in the opinion of the justice
of that course. Uuder the guise of conserva.
tism, there are many who only seek to keep In
check the powers which if exerted, would sup.
press the rebellion. From feeling of security,
thousands of loyal people think to suppress it
by putting forth only portion Of the strength
at the disposal Of the Government. From
false convictions thousands imagine that it is
wrong to employ negroes in snyof our armies.
Can such Q rebellion be suppressed when there
Is want Of concentration Of purpose on one
side, and when on the other there is perfect
recklessness Of means, and the aim is only
success-success at any price-when the mind
and passions Of the secesh oil centre as in .
burning glass, in one fervent ray? Up to the
present time all intimation of of an intention
to employ negroes in any capacity for the over
throw OF the rebels has been supposed to ema.
nate only from the radical portion of the COM
munity-from those who saw emancipation Of
slaves to be the only worthy aim of the pres.
ent contest, and Who advocated the employ
ment alike Of free negroes and of slaves. be.
seose emancipation would surely follow. But
mere nss oeen comparatively small class
