KMANCIPATION!

When We remember that there are four
millions of Slaves within the United States,
the emancipation Of about three thousand
of them only is, numerically, small
matter. 1t is nevertheless . great fact, and
one, for which, should the bill be signed by
the President to-day, these three thousand
people may devoutly thank God tomorrow, and
nation of twenty millions rejoice with then,
at their peaceful enfranchisement by the benign
act Of the Law. The war that in 30 much
has taught the people to love mercy and
remember justice has not been without
purpose, aud should all the Slave States be
restored to the Union tomorrow with Slavery
intact, great end is gained. The National
reproach is 80 far bloited out that in the
domain hitherto exclusively under Federal law
Slavery exists no longer. We may thank God
and take courage, for in ono year from the
day that the enemies Of tho Union opened fire
upon the National Gag, the slaves in the Fed
eral Capital are slaves no longer.
