NEGRO SUBORDINATION.

During the visit the Yankees paid to the neigh
borhood OF Sheperdstown, some weeks ago, when
they disgraced themselves by their conduct at the
residence Of Hon. A. R Botele-, they carried off
or negro men belonging to Henry Shepherd
After they were safely landed on the Maryland side,
the Yankees told them they were then free, and
might have their choice, either to 60 where they
pleased or to return to their master. The negroes
having their choice protested their desire to return
When asked the reason of such choice, they stated
that their wives and children were all there but the
Yankees promised to bring them over, also; still,
the negroes urged their preference to return to the
home and service of their masters. The Yankees,
true to their PROMISE set them all the Virginia side
again, and the negroes are now at home contented
and happy, fearing nothing but another visit from
the Hessans.
Another instance might be cited, in the case Of
four slaves Of Mr.. Jacqueline Smith, of Clark who
we're taken, or enticed from their owner while Pat
tersons army was near the Potomac last Spring
Two of them after enjoying negro freedom for three
weeks in Pennsylvania, became disguised and vol.
UNFAIRLY returned home The other two, after
serving . Pennsylvania regiment for three weeks,
were sold by the Yankees to the jailor in Hagers-
town, for $50 each. Like an honest man he inform
ed their master of the fact, and returned them to
him. We are also informed by reliable gentle
man from King George that two valuable negro
men stolen from that county by the Yankees Sad
made their escape and returned home, their backs
mangled in horrible mauner by the Yankee free
dom shriekers. They stated that they had been
required to perform twice the amount Of labor ever
required of them BEFORE and, in case it was not
performed, they were cruelty punished Their
backs bore ample testimony of the truth Of their
tatements.- Winchester Republican, JAM Sd.

ished. The Rail Splitter has spent immense sums
in furniture. One carpet for the east room is
hundred feet long and fortyeght feet wide and is in
one piece. There are window curtains of rich nee.
die wrought lace made in Switzerland The house
has been reprinted and most of the rooms repaper-
ed. From the minute description given we learn of
the strange taste rather the want of it displayed
by the Baboon and his family. There is an infinity
Of gliding Of red and blue. Neutral tints are avoid
ed and everything is on the glaring African style
While bis government is going to ruin and is on
the verge Of bankruptcy, Lincoln spends thousands

the President suitable people. They were made

The Horse CoNrRAC1s-We have reason to be-
heve that, in some of the purchasing departments
OF the government i.oustrous and audacious frauds
have been perpetrated; and We expect soon to be
in possession of the facts to authorize a complete
exposure OF this matter. There is talk on the street
that one single horse contract of we'll known
official here has realized him fortune We have
more than once had attention called to the Gu.
rious management of fraud in the purchase of
horses for the government 1t is for the purchasing
officer in the first instance, to reject horses that
offered as not coming up to the government STAN
dard, or as nnsound; pump, or accomplce is kept
to buy the horse, after he Is rejected at reduced
price, and then the purchasing officer buys from
the accomplish, and charges the horse, of course at
the full government price.
The SUBJ Joined statement of correspondent hints
at this acute trick of completely by which the gov
eminent Is defrauded:
Some time since, rode to one Of the government
stables, in the neighborhood of the Potomac and
offered to sell to the agent there very fine pony,
both for riding and working purposes but the agent
said he did not want said horse at any price.
He was too small, &C., &c. / concluded that
would TAXA look at the horses there, expecting to
see them all large and fine but to my great sur
prise, found horses there not much more than half
Ms heavy as my own, with sore lacks, swollen legs,
hip-caps gone lame, big heads and little bodies,
sharp behind and low before, legs SCARED from kick
ing in gear &c, &c. The mules were in similar
condition. l asked the men who were attending to
them if the agent there bought those horses for the
government They said he had l then remarked
that said agent would rot purchase mine at any
price, and yet would not give him for stable full
of such horses as | saw there An old man, who
stammered badly, replied, by saying, "M-m. master,
lrr-reckon, ss-sr, you dodon't be-5elong toto de
par-party whar-whar dey ia fa-favors, s-sir" Of
course, dsclaimed all connection with that party
had heard report before this that only certain
party or parties could sell horses there and that
handsome profit was made out of the government
on every horse purchased. How true the report is
can't say, but certainly investigation ought to
be had in the matter Horse dealers had told me
that could not sell any horse to the government
that he must get into certain other hands first
wonder If this is true.
We clip the above from the Richmond Examiner.
This horse business We fear has eaten large hole
in the State well as in the Confederate Treasury
Few men are good judges of horses and it has no
doubt been difficult always to procure suitable men
to buy horses for the army.

THE ARMY QUESTION.


January 18th, 1862
To the Editors Of the Wig:
The time is rapidly approaching when the service
Of those volunteers who have enlisted only for
twelve months will have expired and several plans
have been proposed to meet the exigency of that
OCCASION. Some fears have been produced on the
minds Of our rulers in regard to re-enlistmcnt at
this critical junture which is coming upon u.s.
Those who have mixed much with our troops in
dulge no such gloomy apprehensions and evil FORE
holdings. The men, who responded so promptly to
the first call of their country, have relaxed none of
their purpose abated none oil their ZEAL done nothing
to warrant these uni ust suspicious. The people
voted en- masse for final separation from the Sec
tonal intolerance of the North, knowing that it
would involve US in fratrcidal war, but they pre-
fered the temporary horrors Of civil dscord to
ing the letters of atrocous despotism and trans
uniting to posterty the turmoils Of anarchy. You
will then probably agree with me, MIR. Editor that
no additional legislation is required to coerce the
present volunteers into war of their own making.
Our authorities have displayed doubts Of their pa
triotism which have aroused the just indignation of
q people born to be free. Such treatment is I'M
grateful, yea it is reasonable The soldiers in
the field have done nothing to justify belief that
they will prove delinquent.
True, they have seen much to disgust them with
the service; they arc aware Of the bad management

medicinal departments; they valid reason for
rejecting applications for short furloughs TO see
dying relation, or adjust business impcratively de-
handing attention, at time, too, when they could
be spared, without the sustaining any detri-
ment by their absence. They are frequently vexed
at the ofticousness of political meddlers who cry
loudly "On to Washington" but preserve respect
full distance between themselves and the scene of
danger but they submit quietly to these annoy
ances; they do not complain of hard duties to be
performed, forced marches and hard fare. They are
willing to endure prvations, make necessary sacri-
fees, and are always ready to engage the enemy
they are wearied with tho ennui Of camp, that
fruitful mother of diseases" which is demorall:ing
our army, and will hail as deverers from military
prison our gallant Generals when they shall lead
them forth to battle. 1t is none of the aforemen-
toned things they complain Of but it is the pro-
posed legislation which savors of coercion which
has caused such widespread complaint. l had
thought took up arms against this very doctrine
of coercion.
The above is from an army correspondent of the
Richmond Wing. 1t will be seen that the twelve
months volunteers all over the Confederacy, scout
the idea of compulsion.
