WASHINGTON, Sept. o. 1862.
/, Abraham Lincoln, President of the

der-in- chief Of the Army and Navy
thereof do hereby proclaim and declare,
| that hereafter, as heretofore, the war will
be prosecuted for the object of practical
ly restoring the constitutional relations
between the United States and the peo-
pie thereof in which States that relation
is or may be suspended or disturbed; that
it is my purpose upon the next meeting
of Congress to again recommend the
adoption of practical measure tender
ing pecuniary aid to the free acceptance
Or rejection of all the slave States, so
called, the people whereof may not then
oe in rebellion against the United States
and which States may then have voidn-
tarily adopted or thereafter may volun-
tarily adopt, an immediate or gradual
adjustment of slavery within their re-
spective limits; and that the efforts to
colonize persons of African descent, with
their consent, upon the continent, or
elsewhere, with the previously obtained
consent of the Government exist
ing there, will be continued. z hat on
the first day Of January, in the year Of our
Lord, one thousand eight hundred and si1ty-
three oil persons held as SLAVES ,oithin any

shall on that day be in good faith repre-
sented in the Congress of the United

NE Procla11afiop of Pmaucipatiou,

The Proclamation Of Emancipation.
A Washington dispatch to the Cincinnati
Commercial says that some of the more
radical Senators feel confident that the
President read, at a Cabinet meeting a
draft of his Emancipation Proclamation
to be issued New Years Day. It is claimed
that it exempts all statss partially repre-
sented in the preseat Congress.
A dispatch to the New York Times gives
the following statements and intimatiOns;
There certainly is no occasion for the
general air of doubt that seems TO surround
mems opinions in regard to the Presidents s
policy after Jan. l. His antecedentsi his
measures, his late declarations, all coin
eide to impress upon us the fact that he
will fully sustain the afirmatiOns made in
his Proclamation Of Emancipation.
"Such readers of the Times however
as prefer TO rely upon credible journalistic
statements rather than trust to ratioeina-
ton. may rest assured that in President
Lineoln's present intention there is no
shadow Of turning from the purpose
deliberately formed to carry out the prom
ises Of the Proclamation with an unhinch-
ing resolution.
1.-THE chief difficulties supposed to sur
round the President in carrying out his
emancipation policy vanish as the impor-
tant moment fits elimination approaches.
He will reasonably except from its opera
ton the States Of Delaware, Maryland,
Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri, with
portions Of Virginia, North Carolina and
Louisiana. Thus, finally, will the princi-
pie be officially affirmed, that Freedom is
to be the rule and Slavery the exception,
and this action of the President is under
stood to meet the approval Of even those
who are considered most radical on the

Ever since the project Of a new Demo
cratic organ in this city was proposed in
the Democratic County Convention, some
months ago, the Plain Dealer has trimmed
its sails for that market It had profess
edly been Union before the. election, but
thereupon turned about, and has ever since
overhowed with the most unblushing "but-
ternut" doctrines. But this very crook
ing Of the pregnant hinges Of the knee /"
has disguised the steadfast butternuts, as
well as the Union men, and they do not
propose negotiating for tie weathercOck.
1t is now intended to start the new paper
near the beginning of the New Year, and
TO put abundant capital in it. As 1t will
have an advantage over the P. D. in this
respect, the latter will probably die. Ger
tainly tDo tory, secession sheets cannot
live in this locality.

seeretnry Chass's Financial BiIl.

Secretary LnuAe'h AAAAA-
The telegraph gave but meagre out
lias,Of the Financial Bill submitted by Mr..
Secretary Chase to the Committee Of Ways
and Means. This bill and the one which
washington correspondence intimates will
be reported BY that Committee, differ in
some essential features Mr.. Cbase's bill
urOyides that the Secretary may borrow
in such amounts as are required for the
current and the next fiscal year, the sum
Of 100000, 900, the whole or part thereof
on such terms, in such forms, and ct such
rates Of interest as he shall deem the pub
Lie exigency may require, in accordance
with acts hitherto passed. But it is pro
vided that SO much of said acts as provide
for the eonvertibility of notes into bonds,
otherwise than by their receipt at par in
payment Of loans and other dues, except
customs, and the restriction of the negOti-
alton Of bonds at par or to the current
value, shall be repealed. The bill also
provides for the appointment Of loan
agents; the issuing Of fractional notes, to
be engraved and printed in the Treasury
Department, in lieu Of postage and reve-
nue currency; and the establishment Of
new Bureau, to be charged with currency

troller OF the TreasuTJl who 7han DC @P-
pointed BY the President upon recOmmen-
datiOn of the Secretary of the Treasury,
and confirmed by the Senate, for term of
Eve years at salary of $1,000. He also
gives the details Of the Banking Scheme
subnitted in his last annual report.
The Bill of the Committee proposes a
loan of $500, 100000, for which bonds
bearing interest at 6 per cent, payable in
coin. are to be issued in the usual FORM
It also authorizes the Secretary to borrow
$500 900 900, and to issue therefor bonds
or notes, as he deems best, the interest
payable in coin, the principal payable, one
third in one year, One-third in two years,
and the remaining third in three years
These bonds or notes are to be receivable
for taxes and all other dues except Gus
toms and interest on the public debt. They
may be used by the Secretary in the same
manner as legal tender notes, but the issue
at no time is to exceed three hundred mil
lions, and the Secretary may sell them at
any time upon the best terms he can OBJ
tain. The third section provides for the
further loan of $500, 100000 of convertible
notes not bearing interest in denomina-
tions ofnot less than one dollar. These notes
may be exchanged for bonds by the holders
in sums not under fifty dollars.

serratnrrChnse.

The conduct Of Secretary Chase in
promptly rendering his resignation during
the recent Cabinet crisis, and the conduct
of the President in as promptly refusing
-s-----~I4A- lara the subjects of general
comment and Of general praise.
Il was not difficult to detect feeling of
CONSERVATION upon the announcement that
this great financial prop Of the Admins
tration was about to be swept away by the
disaster which had overtaken General
Burnside's army and we are persuaded
that it was only prevented from assuming
the form Of financial and political panic
by the we'll founded conviction that the
President would, in no event, accept the
chivalric sacrifice, uncalled-for as it was
by his connection with the war, or by his
position in relation to the great question
before the country. This incident was
wanting to fully convince the Secretary Of
the Treasury Of the high estimation in
which he is held by his countrymen.-

The Use TO be made of the Black Reg
imentss
We have already announced that 1t was
intended by the President to organize
regiments Of cOlored men. A dispatch
says that some of these men viii be en-
ployed to guard the banks Of the Missis-
sippi after it shall have been opened by
our fleets and armies. The immense black
population resident on the great river will,
when freed and armed, be amply sufficient
to protect peaceful commerce from moles-
tation. Other African regiments will be
employed to garrison the forts below New
Orleans and on The coast which are expos
ed to the diseases of a Southern climate.
Others still will doubtless be used to en-
force the proclamation CT freedom for the
benefit of their brethren. 1t is surmised
that General Phelps will have an African
command. 1t is the realization of Gen.

ernor Tod and the Quartermaster- General,
to the bad condition of the Ohio soldiers in
the convalescent camp at Alexandria.
The matter was Immediately carried. before
the proper authorities, and by the request
of those concerned these soldiers were
transferred to the cOnvalescent camp
of the fourth Ohio, three miles above
Georgetown, where they will be comfort
ably cared for. The Ohio Relief Associa-

in their new quarters. DR.. McAber, the

Extract from a Private Letter.1
From the IO3d Regiment.
HEADouARTERs Army OF KESTUci

HEADQUARTERS ARMY or KENTUCKY. !
LEXINGTON, KY, Dec. q, 1862.
After q very pleasant Sabbath spent in
Frankfort find myself at my accustomed
table writing to you. The ride to Frank
fort is just about long enough to be pleas
ant. After few miles travel the even
surface of the country disappears, and
there are some very deep cuts on the jour
nay by rail. The scenery around Frank
fort is magnificent beyond anything l
ever saw. Hills, that seem mountains to
me, surround the city on every side; and
you cannot see the city itself until almost
within its limits. I visited, with A. H. s.,
the cemetery. The foot path to that place
winds along the side of great hill, or
rather a mass of rocks, for a full half
mile, on the bank of the river opposite
the camp. The view is grand. Hundreds
Of feet below is the railroad, and still be-
low that is the river, winding through the
valley; and upon the opposite bank the
camp, in all its life and beauty, and so
near that every blow Of an axe, and every
order given can be distinctly heard. Still
farther on there is & fine view of the city,
and beyond the high hills, crowned
with beautiful residences. How did wish
was able to sketch the picture
that you might see it as I saw it. After
we had reached the summit Of the hill we
had splendid view Of dress parade IN
camp. It seemed to me the finest thing l
ever saw. The whole regiment (lOSd,)
drawn up in line, we being on line with
them, every motion could be seen, every
order heard. Then when the parade was
dismissed, it was duite amusing to see
each company move of in different direct
ness, seemingly in the greatest confusion,
vat In tha most narfant ordar-T The Gene
terry itself is a most beautiful place. The
monument to the Heroes of Kentucky is
the finest one ever saw. should think
it about q hundred feet high, surmounted
by figure Of the Goddess Of Liberty. At
each corner st the top, is carved the
American flag, and pile of cannon ballsj
while in the center, on each side, are two
cannon, crossed. The whole structure is
of marble, and at distances Of two or three
feet, bands surmound it, on which are en-
Qraved the names of the battle-helds or
campaigns; and beneath and between the
bands, the names of those who fell in
them.
There, too, is the monument Of Daniel
Boone--which, though broken and much
defaced, is quite fine thing. 1t is made
of brown stone, with bas relief of mar
Bile on each side. On one side is repre-
sented the old hero pointing out to boy
the place of his burial; on another, Boone,
when young man dressed in his hunting
suit. On the third side is the scene
of his conflict with two Indians. He
is represented with his foot on one while
he is in deadly conflict with his companion
The other scene represents his wife milk
ing her COW. ...s j.
and in the best of spirits.
There is considerable activity here now
Morgan is expected back into Kentucky
and the greatest watchfulness is being ex'
ercised in every portion of this army.

some .sArbitrarJ Arrcsta.'l

some Arbitrary AEfGsAhs'
From time to time during the last few
months there has been a great Outcry
throughout the Democratic press, over the
arrest Of some men in New York or other
large cities, and their incarceration in pris-
on by Government orders. Every man
thus arrested without having his Offense
made known to the world, has immediste-
been canonized as a blessed martyr "
and victim to the Lincoln dynasty"
Recent developments throw some light up
on some Of these arrests, which places the
eulo9ists Of the victims in anything but q
PLEASANT light. It appears that the exist
enee Of enormous frauds in the way Of en-
Z listment and recruiting certificates have
been going on formOnths in New York and
other large cities, BY which it is estimated
that the Government has been robbed Of
not less than 100000. False returns were
made Of the number of men subsisted and
transported, SC, and by this system Of
evindling many men not known to be at
All connected with military matters, have
been discovered to be implicated. For
some times Government commissioner has
been employed in the investigation of these
frauds and as one man after another was
found to have been guilty, he was arrested
and held for trial. The newspapers, at thu
reauesto OF the Government, have kept quie
about the matter that guilty parties nigh
not escape, and SO the mystery Of the ar
rests has made capital for the opposition
to the Administration. The facts wer
furnished at as early period as it wa
safe for the Government to do SO.

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
has made the following decisions:
A person who buys cattle to stock his
own farm, and by keeping them thereon he
adds materially to the value is not a cat
tie broker; but it is his business to buy
and sell without materially adding to the
value he is taxable as a cattle broker.
Farmers profits are those Of q producer, and
those ofthe latter a trader. Publishers of
printed books, newspapers, &C., are liable to
assessments as dealers. Ifa publisher sales
are altogether largly to those who buy to
sell again, heis to be classed as q whole
sale dealer. Newspaper publishers re-
ouire dealers license to sell upon the prem
ises. No license is required by one who
disposes Of his papers exclusively through
commission house. Subscriptions re-
ceived at the Office, and the delivery Of pa
pers by mail or otherwise, is regarded as
a sale upon the premises.
