"Scared into the army" il . pretty
good joke. 1t is easily told how they
came there. The action of abolition

about three-f ourths Of yesr in destroy

and cementing the forces Of that part
Of once happy and contented country.
They gave Union men to understand
that their property in slaves was about
to be emancipated, and that such was
the purpose Of the war. They Aocked

the PKEsIDENT,s DECISION.

THE PRESIDENTS DECISION.
There seems to be no longer any
question a. to whether the President
has or has not taken the position With
reference to arming negroes, a. set forth
the other day by the special correspon.
dent Of the Chicago Tribune. His de-
termination not to permit the recruiting
Of negro regiments 10 unquestionable.
The reasons which he gives for adopt.
ing such . policy are sufficient, and
should satisfy any reasonable loyal man.
The Gazette thinks that the action is
"good news for secession sympathizers."
On the contrary, we consider it "glad
tidiugs Of great JOY" to such as love
their country, and the Union Of these
States with the highest earthly adora-
ton. 1t may be very fine for the Ca
sette thus to charge the President with
affordipg aid and comfort to treason
and those who are not conversant with
the great craftsmanship and deep po
litical sagacity of Bro. Sanders, vii
consider his implied charge of traitor
GUS conduct upon the President as be
ing little below the standard Of loyal
ty. But he is cxcusable upon good
grounds. The President has done The
country great service in thus taking biz
position. There is class of fanatics
whose policy it nips in the bud; bu
the country is all the stronger for that
The country will take fresh courage
and the means of crushing out the re
bellion will be applied with more effec,
The loyal hearted people Of the Unio'
will thank him for this act of Jackson
ian 6rmness, and the spirit which erie
out against it will soon be crushed.

Wants to Know.

The New York Post is raving mad
At the neglect Of the President 10 not
issuing an order granting freedom to all
slaves, and demands the reason why. It
calls aloud for the names Of the counter
plotters against abolition fanaticism.
Hear this: .s2
Who are the members of the Cabinet
that dared to advise the President to
shirk the constitutional duty resting up
on him as the Executive, to give instant
and vigorous effect to the act Of Con-
gress Was it Chase, or Stanton, or
Welles, or Seward, or Blair, or Smith,
or B +tesg To which of these men is
the country indebted for the withhold
ing Of the President's proclamation-for
tho keeping our army in ignorance Of
their duties and the slaves Of their rights !?
Which of these Cabinet members has
given aid aud comfort to the enemy, in
denying the destruction Of that institu.
ton, which they claim to be "a tower of
strength?
Let the country know who are the
champions of slavery that surround the
President, and they will demand, ia q
voice Of thunder, that the traitors be dis
missed and sent to join the Cabinet Of
JEFF. Davis. God grant that the Presi-
dent may follow lis own right instincts,
and fling of the evil influences of cor
rupt politicians and disloyal States that
would deter him from the faithful execu-
ton of his high duties!
The people Of this country demand
the instant and thorough execution OF
the law Of the land emanoipating the
| slaves. Let the President listen to their
voice, and, recalling the pitiable vacil-
lation of his wretched predecessor, let
him remember that in bis position in
action is destruction and moral weak
ness the worst of crimes.
That's interesting. A leading repub-
Iican paper charging Cabinet members
with treason, and implicitly charging the
President with the same. The editor
Of the Post was one Of Lincolo's cleo.
toral college. The Post had not heard
of the anti.nigger regiment policy Of the
President when the above was written.

We notice that strenuous exertions
are being made to have one Of the new
Navy Yards located at Philadelphia in.
stead of New London, Come cticut. The
former city has given gratuitously to the
government tract of land lying on
Traque Island, containing some 1000
acres. This land is given with the pro-
vision that the navy yard shall DO To-
Gated thereon. We are gratiied to learn
that the government has not as vet seen
fit to accept this muni6cent Offer, but has
determined to take time to consider the
matter, and ascertain the eligibility OF
other points. If we mistake not Phlla.
delphia has very little to boast of in
the naval architecture line. Tho New
