Ninety -sixparolod prisoners, captured
near Shepherdstown, have arrived at
IIarper's Ferry. The correspondent
OF the Philadelphia Inquirer, at that
point, says:
The above released prisoners wero
compelled to accept Of a parole which
states that they are not to cntor the
United States service, or to fight on &C
count tor them. This parole is very
singular one, us it doprives the United
States OF the service of these men to
rcpel the Indians from our borders. As
the Government intends TO send all tho
paroled prisoners out West, for that
purpose, the whole party will leave this
afternoon to report at Washington.
Transportation has been furnished
them for that purpose.

THE PROCLAMATION.

The proclamation Of freedom to the
slaves, SO long and earnestly sought by the
radicals, has been issued. The cisis in
our affairs has arrived when President
Lincoln deems it necessary for the public
good to torewarn those ia arms against
the governmen. Of the penalty that awaits
persistence in treason. That the Pres-
dent believe. the step which he has taken
essential we do not doubt but whether
such measure will fulfill the expectations
and promises of its friends, time and q
trial alono can determine 1t will fail to
excite the controversy and interest that it
would have produced one year ago. The
country now is not so particularly anxious
about the fate Of slavery, as the preser
walton Of the Government in all its con.
ssitutional vigor, and with its union of
States. The hear: of the people are Fixed
upon thai and nothing must stand in the
way of or present its accomplishment
The President, in his proclamation, pro.
poses little else than wha is accomplished
by the conf scation act Of Congress. If
enforced. that virtually frees the slaves in
rebelious States and the President can
do nc more. But the radicals profess ex-
cessive joy over the proclamation and
therefore we shall expect their hearty sup
port and co operation henceforth in the
war If this be so then there is some.
thing genial already. 1t is quite time that
controversy ended and determined war
began If the success of our cause and
the speedy overthrow Of rebellion resul,
from this new policy, all will be we'll.

Abolish the Cause,

The abolition journals gravcly inform
US that slavery is the cause Of the war,
and to secure peace we must exterminate
slavery.
From analogous reasoning We might
deduct tho following:
Shay's rebellion in Massachusetts was
caused by taxes, therefore taxes should
have been abolished.
The rebellion in Pennsylvania WAS
caused by whiskey, therefore whiskey
should have been abolished.
Taxation wi.hou, representation caused
the revolution in l1716. therefore both re.
presentation and taxation ought to be
abolished.
Sin caused the fall Of our first parents.
therefore sin must be abolished
The incendarys torch causes the des.
,ructon Of millions of dollars worth of
property, and therefore the torch ought TO
be abolished. #-= .--f. a.
The assassin's pistol or knife causes
the premature death of innocent men,
women and children, therefore the pistol

Of holding "Conventon of Governors Of

and our citizens generally upon all kinds
of charges. Here is a specimen Of this
anomalous letter writer:--
How were We treated on our arrival
here, and how have we oeen treated since
by the vain, arrogant coxcombs and swell
heads Of Sioux City, who had built great
hopes upon Cur pockets, to arres. the
downward tendency Of their one. horse
town.
We have purposely RETAINED from max.
ing public through The REGISTER any
comments upon the conduct of Co. A,
while in this city. High Private has
volunteered to publicly answer charges
that have heretofore been made only in
private Justice to the people here and
to the other soldiers now requires word
in reply: 1t is true that Co. A was not
received with booming cannon and we'll
ordered processions-there was no neces-
sity for that-but they were received with
q warm welcome and cordially. They
had hardly however lighted their camp
lres, before the work of piilage and THEW
ing commenced, and it was kept up inces-
sanity until Company A left the town.
There was scarcely hen'roost or melon
patch or garden in the town and vicinity
that was not made the scene of their de-
predations. One Of our best farmers upon
the Floyd, while absent from home, had
his premises visited well founded rumor
says by members Of that Company, and
about seventy.dve chickens, FIFTY turkeys,
two or three thousand pounds Of bacon,
and some blankets were taken. Another
of our citizens had his cow killed. And
SO the thing went on until our citizens felt
and expressed themselves indignant. For
all the other companies our citizens enter
tanned the warmess cordiality ard highest
respect. Nor woud we Tor moment
intimate that all of Company A were en-
gagged in this work. The majority are
undoubtedly good and honest soldiers
but they must suffer in reputation for the
evil conduct Of their conrad IS, until the
guilty are promptly ferreted out by the
officers, and punished. Officers are to
blame when they permit this "forag;ng'
as if an enemys country. We dislike
much to say these things, but they are un.
deniable, and those upon whom they re.
fleet have provoked the exposition.
