is demanded in the interest Of the black race, as

The demand rests on the patriotic and humane de-
sire that the passage of this vast body Of people from
Slavery to Freedom shall be under the restraints
which military discipline imposes-tbatit be in no
wise left to the accidents which will menace Is from
the rage and resistance of the masters on the one
side, and on the other side by the insstance OF the
slaves upon enjoying the liberty which has been
conferred upon them by the authority Of the United
States Government. 1t is demanded, too, in order
to sustain the authority Of the Government in pro-
claiming freedom to the blacks-an authority which
would fall into contempt all over the world,
and give the coup de grace to the Union,
if the Proclamation was not thus sustained. 1t Is
demanded, too, by that mighty procession fact
stretching across the continent, that walks in weeds
and mourns the dead of the army, killed by the ma
laria of the cotton, rice and sugar districts OF the
South. The feeling on this point, convergng here
about the Hospitals and the Pay Department and
the War Office, and Congress under constant siege
by its constituency in Grape, is fast becoming impe
rious. Upon the other and the satesmany consld-
Grafton of taking military control OF, and giving
orderly shape to- the exodus of the Southern blacks
from bondage to freedom, and settlement OF them
into their new relations to the soil on which they
live compensated aborers, sentiment is fast rpen-
ing into executive command and departmental ac-
ton. The restoration Of the Union-the promptly
paid price of the acknowledgements Of the American

from wounds received in a battle in vir-

will not be uninteresting to our readers:
Poor Lieutenant Fitz James O'Drien
was sacrificed by an ignorant Melhodist
miui'ter, who had received an appoint-
'ment as surgeon through some political
influence, and who dressed his wound so
unskllltuiIy that for more than a month
the gallant soldier was supperating bis
life away. \ Re section Of the Joint Of the

he ever wrote were 10 friend, describing
the painful operation.

7RIDAY MORNING, MAY 2, IS
Rattle of Shiloh.

Instead of" Pittsburg," the ground of
the late battle should properly be called
% SHILOH" Gen. BuEIL, in his order
congratulating the army under his COM
mand, on the imperishable honor won in
the late terrible conflict, designates the
theater Of the strife as ct the battle field of
Shiloh, near Pittsburg Landing" Gener,
al BEAuREGARD, in his official report Of the
same, calls it the battle Of Shiloh. This,
then, is probably the truer name, and wo'd
seem to be preferable from the fact j: is
a more distinctive name than Pittsburg,
ana not so liable to be confounded with
another location.

Interference With EcCleIlan's Plans.
Gen. MCClEI.L>E il making his arrange
meuts for the march en- Richmond, propo
sed to have McDowELL's division act as the
right wing Of his army. It is said that
politicians at Washington have, since Nc
CLrLLAN has gone to Yorktown, had this
pat Of the plan changed at Headquarters,
and McDowELL now, instead Of acting
under McCLELLAN's orders, must move
&c, according TO directions from Wash
ingron.
II this be true, somebody is assuming s
fearful responsibility. To even the most
ordinary intelligence, it is ridiculous to
have tie right wing Of an amy in the
field acting under or@ers of one party and
the other portion of the army acting under
another. The Fortress Monroe correspon.
dent of the New York Commercial Adver-
tiser, journa! that never gives currency
to statements unless they are known to be
well grounded, writes in his last:
We hear that those in authority at
Washington, who are believed here to
