The Effect of the Confscation Law in the
Border States.

The action OF the late Republican Congress
commencing with the abolition of slavery in
the District Of Columbia, contrary TO the wish
es of its inhabitants, and eliminating in the
passage of the Confscation bill, which is in
fact but universal emancipation, disguised is
exciting very unfavorable Influence for the
cause of loyalty and the Union in the border
States The Maysvillle (Kentucky) Eagle,
one of the soundest Union papers in those
States, thus speaks of the Confscation bill
This infamous measure has passed both
branches of Congress, and only needs the Presi-
dents signature to become a law. The great
question is, will the President approve it t.?
We will await his action in fear and trembling.
for we must confess that our apprehensous are
great that he will give way to the ultra aboIi-
tionists in this matter We have not a correct
copy of the bill, but the Geographic synopsis
is sufficiently full TO indicate that it is a sweep
ing Abolition measure, emancipating nearly
all the slaves in the South and demoralizing
and rendering valueess the rest 1t would
turn the war into John Brown or j ohn
Morgan raid Oh q gigantic scale. 1t is utterly
and wholly unconstitutional and would be de
clared null aud void by any honest court in
the nation, but those in power have very plain
ly indicated their contempt for all courts when
their decisions interfere with the mad passions
of the hour. 1t is indefensbIe as a war meas
ure, being calculated to divide public senti-
meut in the loyal States and concentrate The
most bitter opposition in the States that have
attempted to secede. Besides. it violates every
recognized principle Of civilized warfare and
degenerateS the struggle for nationality into
mere scheme for plumber. II this bill shall be
approved by the President and our army shall
consent to become the tools for carrying ont
so odious and wicked a policy, then indeed,
will fearful obstacle be placed in the path OF
those who earnestly desire restoration Of the
Union under the Constitution of our fathers
The secessionists and abotionisls are working
together TO destroy the country. and conserva-
tive men must either combat them both or be
crushed by them in the nations ruin. If con
sentative men are weak and iimid and yield TO
either. then the last hope OF Union, couS1iiu-
tional liberty aud freedom viii perish by their
apoStacy. 1t Is theirs 10 speak out while there
is yet time, or calmly endure the uuspeakabe
calam,ies which will follow the success OF
abolition AMI secession traitors-for, as God
Is Judge, We believe the success Of the aboli-
uonisls will ensure the ultimate triumph OF the
seeded States.

A CAUSE that has to be sustained by assum-
ing false principles as the position of an adver-
sary, must be without merit in itself So it is
daily with the selflandatory republican union
ranters in this State. You hear them con
stantly assuming that loyal democrats wish to
stop the armies and navies Of the government
to quarrel about political differences between
them and the present National Administration.
A more barefaced faisehood could scarcely be
uttered. We challenge them to the record
Let the truth of history speak, by it we stand
or fall We confidently challenge such falsify-
ers to point to single vote or official act,
either State or National, of any loyal demo-
crat against supplying the most unlimited
measure of men and means, and placing the
same at the disposal of the chief executive Of
the Nation, TO prosecute the war. We defy
them to point 10 a single platform or resolution
of any politician convention Of loyal democrats,
that directly or indirectly oppose the most eff
cient war measures as the best remedy for the
present struggle. True democracy, IN the Ian
guage of the great Douglas, has at all times
been for the most stupendous preparation for
war " as " the speedest way TO peace" The
whole political sin Of the democracy, however,
consists in this, that they want the money
raised and men called to arms, to be employed
in fighting for the restoration of the Union in
accordance with the heretofore declared policy
of Congress, and not its destruction under the
plea of necessity to save it. Democrats do not
wish to war for the supremacy of the political
ideas between ovaists on the field of battle,
but for the Government of our fathers, and
hence object to the employment of the means
furnished the war department TO carry out re-
publican ideas. Bat howl on kind sirs, such
is your chief stock in trade without which you
are bankrupt in political resources. Bat mind
you until you find reason and facts TO convince
our Judgment, your charge will be as unavail-
ing as blank cartridges. We are not TO be
swerved from the path of duty by vilfcation,
threats, or any other means, short of couvinc-
ing Us that we err in Judgment.

CHANGE OF ToSE-It is an old adage, as
true as it is homely, that when a man is go
ing down hill, every one gives him kick"
One is forcbly reminded of this by witnessing
the recent change of tone with which the Sac
ramento Union speaks of General Mcclellan
A few short weeks since, when that gallant
officer was the public favorite, and even up to
the time Of his strategic movement " to the
James River, that journal almost daily con
tanned ponderous column after column in lauda
ton Of the young Napoleon, aud argument
upon argument to prove that the movement
referred to was one of a voluntary character,
made for the purpose of placing the army in a
more advantageous position for an attack upon
Richmond Now, when the General is sup
posed to have lost 4 portion OF bis popularity,
and when there is a rumor that he is to be
superseded in the command by Gen. Burnside,
the Union sees proper to attack his military
reputation. and to harshly censure his manage
ment. 1t now speaks of the retirement of
gion of discontinue and disheartening mis-
management and says that the troops
were either dispirited by delays which seemed
TO them unreasonable, hardly won advantages
never followed up, severe labor in dirt digging.
which the event proved TO be Of little Or 10
value. and of assaults received in the worst
positions 1t adds that the evacuation of the
Peninsula with the simple boast that the
feet and stores are entirely safe, is calculated
to awaken the nation from a dream of conf
dence in an idol, and to suggest that it would
be well to review the sanguinary and fruitless
campaign, with view to securing, hereafter,
wisdom and energy in the direction Of our Ia
tional armies
Truly. the Union seems extremely selections
to trim its sails to the first impulse of the pop
uar breeze, and to be one of the first To pay
homage to the rising sun. Or is the Union
becoming disloyal? Which is it?
