The Measure Of Freedom.

The Presidents Emancipation Psoc'a,
nation II received with n,sfe general
approval and acquiescence than was an.
,icipaeed. People generally believe sna'
the South herself, by het persistent re-
bellion, hes signed che death warrant OF
slavery that loyal men nowhere can re-
cogn;xe any "rights Of the South, that
true men or the Government are bound
to respect, 80 long Is that section OF tho
country is in open, armed revolt against
the Constitution and thelaws OF the Ne
public. Rebels, by their own acts, be-
come outlaws, aud are outlawed, and we
can have as little respect for their prop.
erty as we have for that Of highway
man or other public enemy.
Here and there VIC meet man or a
public journal that argues against the
Constitutionality of the Proclamation. -
But it should be borne in mind that the
Constitution is a peace document, and
that this is war measure. The Consti.
tuition lays down no rules as to how the
ommander-in Chief shall conduct a war
to save the Government. But he must
save the Government, and the rules of
war are to be his guide in time Of war
Even the individual rights Of loyal men
must yield before public necessity
Use all means that are not barbarous to
weaken and damage the enemy, and to
increase your comparative strength. That
is the great rule Of war.
A few-those who are bound to be
satisfied with nothing-murmur because
the President has not issued this impor-
tant proclamation sooner and made it i'm
mediate in its effect, instead Of prospec-
tive in its operation. But consider that
the President is bearing the country
through extreme perils, tina, he is chary
ed with the maintenance of the Govern
ment. This Union of thirty four States
is to be restored aud re-establishet
stronger than ever. That is his work
His acts must conduce to that end The,
must not only be just, but wise. Sine,
he has shown honesty and courage, le
US confide in his forecast aud good judg
ment. Chicago journal.

of their opponents, but they hold doc.
triues that ought to kill, politically, any

to nominate them and helped to make
the platform on which they stand, and
would vote for them if he was not now
confined in a traitors cell. In fact the
friends of the so called Democratic ticket
have nominated D. A. Mahopy for Con

treason. Were they truly honest and

TardY Justice.


For two days after We heard of the
battle at Iuka, there was no mention
made of the 9Th Iowa, and VIC had con-
cluded that it was not in the fight. Why
it was that the gallant d.eds of that reg
iment were so long overlooked We cannot
say. Justice, though tardy. is sure, and
now the friends of that regiment have
! no cause to com plaiD. We have not time
or space to give all the statements We
have seen Of their bravery, but We cannot
refrain from giving few. The cores
pondent of the Cincinnati Gazette says:
II said this was one of the bloodiest Of
Western battles. From several persons
who were on the ground early in the day,
| learned that the rebel loss in killed and
wounded was not less than 500, fully 800
of whom were killed. Our own loss was
100 killed aud about 200 wounded. All
this, too, was done in an hour aud a half,
and very much Of it with the bayonet. -
1t was almost entirely hand to hand
engagement. l can only say that the
18th Ohio battery and 9Th Iowa infantry
suffered terribly. This battery was in
possession of the rebels when the 9th
Iowa charged them with a valor of which
Iowa may we'll be proud, and retook the
guus-the horses all being killed. Sew.
eDty or eighty of the men belonging to
this battery were either killed or wound.
ed
The regular correspondent, Of the Day.
export Gazette, an officer in the I'd Iowa
cavalry, says:
"Ahout 10 a. N. the 9th Iowa, Rosen-
Grams division, commenced driving in
the rebel pickcts, and at 4 p. m. an at
tack was made on Prices army. The
troops behaved splendidly The 9TH
Iowa was in the thckest of the fight
The rebels fought with bravery aud de-
termination. but could not avail against
the gallant Yankee boys The rebels
charged on an Ohio battery, killing all
the horses but 5, and succeeded in cap
turing the guns, only 20 Of the-men re.
naming unhurt. The 9th Iowa in turn,
charged the rebels and retook the battery.
We might give other extracts of a
similar character, from Col Clifford, and
others, but the above will show that the
Iowa 9th will be remembered in history.

GENERAL. SANITARY REPORT.
During the past month the sick list of
the 9Th Iowa Infantry has been smaller
than usual, Notwithstanding there has
been no rain aud the weather has been
exceedingly hot. We have had no cpl
d mic nor have We treated any disease Of
a malignant type. Remittent aud inter
mittent fevers and diarrhna have been
the prevailing maladies. The scurvy
which threatened US last month has al
most entirely disappeared. This We
can readily attribute to the fact that We
have been enabled,t to some extent, to pro-
cure vegetables. The demand, however,
has not been supplied by our Quarter
masters and Commissarics. Tn, country
here furnishes an abundance Of corn, a
few peaches and sweet potatoes; but the
supply is being rapidly exhausted and
the men will soon De compelled to return
to their usual ratious Of beef and pork.
Our camp is situated ia healthy To-
eality. The ground is rolling and well
simbered. Pure cold water pours forth
from the side hills in great abundance.
Our camp is thoroughly policed every
day, and the men are compelled to sashe
three times week.
We have not lost man during the
month, nor had single case Of scurvy
worthy Of note.
Our sick list appears large from the
fact that | record every man name for
whom l prescribe. The same soldier is
occasionally sick twice or mo'e times
during the same month, adding, each
time, one more to the list.

sk'rmlshcs, had stood guard over the
property oflebels while they were suffer

they were not to meet tie enemy in

18th uit. Capt. Dean led but forty nou-
commissioned officers and prlvatcs into

Of the utmost Importance that the Gov
eminent should make promotions from the
common soldiers, as the reward of merit
This would not only stimulate every man
TO exert himself to the utmost, but il
would insure to the army officers who
had learned their duties in the school Of
experience. The army must slough of
hundreds of the feeble and worthless mer
who now hold commissions, and promote
industrial and vigilant men who are anx'
ious TO do something more than draw
their salaries and attend wine suppers
We will then sec quick movements, rapid

to lead soldiers TO victory. We must
hold up promotion before the eyes of tht

Eiitor Of he Union:
Inclosed | send you the following NOR
coau of rebel impudence, which was post
ed on one Of the secesh business houses
of this place, 1t was brought here by a
bull-neck secessionist, by the name of J.
J. FoRD, now fugitive from justice, This
fellow was a member Of the Legislature
that passed the secession ordinance, He
had a contract with the traitor HARRIS
for imprcssing the guns in the hands Of
the people Of this section Of country, aud
he has made himself somewhat notori-
GUS in this and the adjoining counties,
as a boisterous, self-conceited, and coarse
haranguer upon the stump. Col, MUNDY
issued an order for his arrest while he
was stationed at Lebanon, but he made
his escape, and has been prowling about
the country ever since A true bill was
obtained against him for treason at the
late term of the Federal court al Nashville.
He takes vantage of such times as the
present, when the country is infested with
rebel soldiers, to visit his late home, in
order to do the dirty behests Of treason.
