TIE ROMANTIC NEGRO or THE TRIBUNE
NOT TUE NEGRO OF REALITY.-Is not the
following, which we take from the Albany
Argus, true and suggestive3 at will be
remembered that long before the rebellion
broke out, the Tribune declared that uni
versal instruction would certainly take
place among the slaves, the moment war
began and it counted on that as a pre-
ventive of Rebellion. 1t has since found
out, and now declares, that the slaves are
elements of strength to the Rebels, raising
crops while their masters are fighting
Taught by experience, the falacies Of the
combined negro and war ethics Of the
Tribune, let us not accept too precipitately
its suggestions about arming the slaves,
lest We find to our cost that the arms may
be used to our disadvanta ge, il not against
US. No reliance can be placed on Adolf
ton theories in carrying on the war, for
all their predictions based on the Negro
as an element Of strength against rebel
lion, have thus far been falSifed by sad
experience. In many instances negroes
conveyed important information from our
lines to their masters"
tut
Sound ADvIcE.-Mr. Seward, in an ap.
neal to the Illinois Republicans, upwards
OF year ago, said:
- I(irnGieu,cH--{f VOC want &c SAX tkis
Administration, and have it successful and
profitable to the country, implore you to
remember that the battle of freedom has
been fought and won. Henceforth forget
that freedom ever was in danger, and ex.
ert your best in60eace ROW to save the
Union. Let it not be said that the Re-
publican party of the United States won
its first, last and only victory over the dis.
solution Of the Union"
What a pity that some of our leading
Republican journals and speakers don I
heed Mr.. Stewards wise admonitiONs. IN
stead of exerting their best influence tC
save the Union," they are working for its
destruction.

We copy a report, says the y. \. Free

Of the action Of the L. 5. Judge Smalley,
OF Vermont, on application by writ of
habcaS corpus. The senselesS press call
tia "confict Of the Judiciary with the
Executive" Ii is simply an instance Of
q Judge doing what he must do, or rem
der himself Infamous.
Judge Snalley rcpudiatcs, as INSULT
cient. the order Of the Secretary Of War,
or any Of his subordinatcs, to disregard,
or suspend, the writ, but he is reported
as hesitAting as to whether such a power
does not lodge with the President Judge
Smalley is in danger Of making here, a
grave judicial mistake. lie seems to ar
que ''only the highest authority known to
the laws can suspend the writ, and then
doubts whether, in that view, as the Ex-
ecutive isieor Ordinate with the Legislature,
the chief executive may not have that
power. We think the Judges opinion
may be modified IS he viii adyer! to the
fact that the Legislature requires the sane
ton Of the Executive to complete its ac-
ton, and that thus the proper, and the
only proper authority to suspend the OPP

ion for suspending- that writ Of habeas
corpus, we will see the prOpriety Of throw
;:s svN7.PSssiAle sMeFHHtee IN the way
of the abuse Of the suspending power.
Read the Petition Of Right, drawn by
Cookies own hand. Read the terms Of
the act of habeas corpus, and it will seem
that, even in the times Of the despotical
.Stuarts, the Executive, that is the King,
was denied any right to suspend or disre-
gard this writ, under the British Consti-
tuition. Is our Executive to be clothed
with . power so certain to be abused?

ABILENE is beautifully situated on a email
stream Of clear running water, one mile north
of the Smoky Hill River. near the geographical
centre Of Dickinson county, and on the great
thoroughfare from the Missouri River to the
Gold Regions, New Mexico, and California. 1t
is the only town between Junction City and
Salina, and is located midway-being twenty
FIVE miles from each. The country around
ABILENE is the most fertile and beautiful that
can be found in the State-its character being
an intermixture Of timber ard prairie, pecu-
harry adapted to agricultural purposes. The
fertility Of the SOIL the excellence of the water
the hea!thfulness Of the location, and the abuL
dance Of timber and building stone. are induce
merits Of no ordinary character; while in
addition, the rich mineral resources of this
portion of the State, The Salt Springs, ard
extensive Coal Fields west Of US on the Smoky
Hill, insuring the early completion Of Rail
Road from the Missouri River, makes it one Of
the best natural business points in the State.
The town was laid out six months ago, since
which time over one hundred lots have been
sold, and it now contains store, blacksmith
shop hotel, Post Office, and several families.
