AFTER THE Wharf.-The question, so
often asked, "What is to be done with the
soldiers and negroes at the end of the
war;" has been at length settled by Ben
nett, of the New York Herald, who
speaks thus editorially:
Now that the war will very soon be
brought to an end, and there will be some
1000 troops in the South, and the ne
groes idle on the plantations of their alb
sentee masters, or running about the
country as Migrants, the question arises,
What is to be done with both The best
thing to be done with the soldiers is to in
duce them to remain at the South, by divi-
ding among them the estates of the planters
who have run away, and also the slaves,
so that these negroes may be set to work
on the same plantations in the cultivation
of cotton. The Northern troops would be
the very life of the Union sentiment in
the South, and military government
ought to be established in the beginning,
after the manner of that in Tennessee, in
order that the States may be re-organized
under proper authority and law, and obe-
dience to the Federal Government fully
established, With view to this end, the
troops should take good care not to allow
the minds of the slaves to be tempered
with, or any foolish notions about equali-
ty inculcated. On the contrary, they
ought to drive the missionaries out Of
their lines at the point of the bayonet, as
dangerous incendiaries. This is the war
to restore the Union, to maintain order,
and to preserve to the country the vast
wealth which it has hitherto monopolized
by the culture of cotton.

Sensations During Battle.

One who has recently been in battle,
and who desires to satisfy the curiosity of
those who desire to know how men unac-
customed to stand fire, felt when first I'M
der it, says:
] do not suppose I have much physical
or moral courage, but the sensations under
fire, judging from my experience are differ
ent from what is expected. A reasoning
man at first feels alarmed, and his impulse
is to run away; and if he has no reason to
stand, he probably does run; but at each
exposure he grows less timid, and after
hearing canister and grape about his ears
dozen times, begins to think he is not
destined to be hurt. Re still feels un-
easy perhaps; but the danger becomes fasci-
mating, and, though he don't wish to be hit,
he likes to have narrow escapes, and so vol
UNFAIRLY places himself in position where
he can incur more risk. After a little
while, he begins to reason the matter; re-
fleets on the Doctrine of Probabilities, and
how much powder and lead is necessarily
wasted before any man is killed or woun-
ded. Why should he be, he thinks, SO
much more unlucky than other people
And he soon can hear the whizzing of
bullets with tolerable degree of equanim-
ity, though he involuntarily lodges or tries
to dodge the cannon balls or shell that 90
bowling around his immediate neighbor-
hood In the afternoon, he is quite diff
ferent creature from what be was in the
morning, and involuntarily smiles to see a
man betray the same trepidation which he
himself exhibited few hours before
The more he is exposed to fire, the better
he can bear it; and the timid being of to-
day is the hero Of tomorrow; and he who
runs from danger on the first battle field,
runs into it on the next, and courts the haz-
ard he once SO dreaded.
The courage, as it is styled, is little
more with men than custom; and they
learn to despise what has often threatened
without causing them harm. If wounded
they learn wounds are less painful to bear
than they had supposed, and then the doc
trine of probabilities teaches them once
more they are less liable to be wounded
again. So the mental process goes on un-
I'll the nerves become by degrees the sub
jects of the will; and he only fears who
has not the will to be brave.

A PoLrr1cAL ABOLITION PREAcHE

The Brooklyn Eagle says:-Rev. Mr..
Beecher has given up politics Gin the pull
pitt and taken to far pleasanter pursuits
Last week he wrote a slashing article
on fast horses for the Ledyer-or the Clip
per-the Ledger we believe, and last night
we notice his name among the distinguish
ed visitors at the great Billiard contest. The
"b'hoys" received Mr.. Beecher very gra-
ciously and gave him three rousing cheers
The deacons Of Mr.. Beecher's church now
propose to discontinue their subscriptions
to the Tribune and take to billiards and fast
horses. There is no truth in the rumor,
however, that one of the grayest Of them
is about to open billiard saloon for the
edi6cation of the godly, but a table has
been bought for private practice, and will
be kept in the basement Of the church.
The entrance is on Orange street. None
but members in good standing admitted.

95The New York Tribune calls the
mobbing Of Wendell Philips ''brutal at
tack on free speech" The Utica Observ-
err admits the wrong, but reminds the pub
lie that, just before the opening of the pres
ent session of Congress, the Tribune pub
lished the following atrocious threat
against member Of Congress from this
State:
"''lf he dares to open his traitorous mouth
in Congress for compromise, the steps of
the chamber will be crimsoned with blood.n
We submit, it asks, whether paper
which invokes the assassin's hand in the
National Halls of legislation, is not shame
fully self-condemnedi in its judgment against
the brutality of attacking the right of free
speechs-.al6any .Argus.

A THOUGHTFUL WIFE.-A friend says
he has dear, loving little wife, and an
excellent housekeeper. On her birthday
she moved her low rocking chair close to
his side. He was reading. She placed
her dear little hand lovingly on his arm,
and moved it along softly towards his coat
collar. He felt nice all over. He GER
tainly expected kiss. Dear, sweet, low
ing creature angel! She moved her
hand up and down the coat sleeve.
Husband" said she.
'What, my dear p
81 was just thinking"
"Was you, my love p
IT was. just thinking how nicely this
suit of clothes you have on would work
into rag carpet"
He says he felt cross all day, the disap-
pointment was so great.

How ABoL1TIoNIsTs AND REpuBL1.

How ABoLITIoNIsTs AND REpUBLI-
CANS SHOW THEIR LoYALTY.--An associ-
alton has been formed in Washington to
give aid and comfort to fugitive slaves, of
which association Mr.. Hamlin, Vice Presi-
dent of the United States, has been chosen
President. Mr.. Hamlin took an oath to
support the Constitution of the United
States, on becoming Vice President, which
Office he still holds. His becoming Presi-
dent Of this fugitive slave aid society,
shows in what light he holds the Consti-
tuition and his oath to support it. Who
can doubt that there is treason and disloy-
atty in Abolitionism and Republicanism?

THE COUNTRY REALIZING THE EVIL

The COUNTRY REALIZING THE EVIL
EFFECTS OF ABoLITIoNIsM.-This is the
caption of the leading editorial in last
weeks Metropolitan Record, Catholic
journal-the "Oficial Organ of the Most,
Rev. Archbishop of New York" We
read in the article as follows:
"No one, in view of what has transpir-
ed during the last year, and what is occur
ring every day, can ever hope to see the
Union restored as it existed in the early
days of the Republic. There cannot be
in the nature of things union of free will
and fraternity--the memories of defeats,
of wrongs and outrages, whether fancied
or real, are ever stronger in the human
breast than those of kindnesses or favors
bestowed. The last acts of brother or
friend are always the freshest in the recol-
lection. And what is the record of the
North in this respect so far as the South
is concerned? 1t must be confessed that
it has been of purely sectional charac-
ter. Of course we do not mean to justify
the policy which the South has pursued
but we insist upon it, that this war has
been brought about by the incendiary in
fuence of Abolition orators and an Adolf
tion press. We care not what form that
abolitionism may have assumed, whether
it was open opposition to the great South
ern institution or whether that of disguised
antagonism to its extension; it was still
based on sectional hostility. 1t is unne-
cessary here to repeat the circumstances
which followed the election of the present
Chief Magistrate of the Republic; they are
painfully familiar to every one. But this.
we will say, that if the representatives of
the North to the Border State Convention
had not been governed by sectional and
party feelings, we would not now have to
deplore the calamities which have fallen
so heavily upon the country"
