PERsoNAL.-Col. VIM. Vandever Of
the 9th Iowa regiment of infantry arriv-
ed home yesterday morning from Wash
ington, where be had been on brief
visit to attend to pressing matters of bus
mess. The Colonel looks thin in flesh ,
but is in good health and excellent spir-
its. The compaign has hardened mis-
muscle until he has become as tough as
oak. The Colonel returns shortly to his
regiment with an eagerness for the fray
as fresh as when he broke camp at Camp
Union LIST fall. He expects to meet the
Ninth on the river somewhere in the vi
cinity Of Fort Wright, and taking com.
maod, again win laurels with them a:
glorious as those gathered on the bloody

mander he has proved himself capable

THE PRESIDENTS PROCLAMATION.


The proclamation Of the President
which We published last week, has been
generally read and generally approved.
II does not yet appear whether or no
Gen. Hunter issued the proclamation
attributed to him. While we may be-
lieve that the time may como when it
will be the duty and pleasure of the Pres
ident to proclaim freedom throughout
the rebel States, it is not so clear that
subordinate General has or should exer-
else such power Such an order should
BE- general and should emauatc from the
President as commander in chief of the
Federal forces. We believe in the hon.
esty and patriotism of or Presiden. and
are willing to leave the matter with him.
While, to us, it seems that such an order
would be just, right and proper at the
present time, We concede to the Presi.
dent far more wisdom and greater knowl-
esdge than We possess. 10 the more i'm
jportant steps taken by the President, oil
have scknowled ged that he acted Just
right and at the right time. Whenever
it shall seem to him best to use his high
Iprerogative as indicated, he will have
our hearty approval, and we believe that
nine tenths of the people hroug hout the
land will say, "Ameu; God bless the
good man."
This rebellion was CONNIE nced in the
interest of slavery. |. has already cost
US thousands Of lives and millions Of
money-more than the highest value ever
placed upon the slavcs-and VIC do no.
believe that the war should be ended
and leave the Shareholders in possession
of all the rights and privileges which
they have forfeited by their traitorous
conduct. And yet We have men at the
North who are opposed to furnishing the
TRAITORS III any way, men who say that
the North should pay all the taxes which
it is necessary to raise in consequence of
the rebellion, and who are willing to
confer upon the rebels rights which they
never possess ID to induce them to return
to 'she;r allegiance. Such men are worse
than armed traitors; more dangerous and
more despicable.
That tho President contemplates the
necessity Of issuing the order referred to,
is evident from the strong warning which
he gives to the people of the slaveholding
States. He tells them that now is the
time for them to sell out, and if they do
not heed his warning they may soon feel
his power. That slavery will be "crush-
cd OUT before the war closes or be pac-
ed in the way of speedy extermi nation,
we fully believe, and humbly pray.

moralized.

to take the oath of allegiance, agree that af-
ter the evacuation of Corinth thousands re-

Colonel Cloud.

Wherever this gallant officer goes. he
possesses the hearts of the soldiers. He is
a true soldier himself, and knows how to ap-
prsciate the wants aud neces sites of bis
men. He possesses none of the domineer-
ing and overbearing spirit so often display
ed By men when they get on shoulder-strsps.
He loves his men, and esteems it his highest
duty TO look after their welfare, and they in
turo would follow him into the very jaws of
death. The Colonel was recently transfer
red from the Tenth to the command Of the
Second; and although there were two others
who pretended to command that Regi-
ment. he had no difficulty in gaining the af-
tsctions of the brave boys of the Second.
One of the soldiers. writing to the Conserv-
attire from Fort Riley. speaks as follows Of
bis advent among them"
1--WE at last have Colonel, a man after
our own heart Cheer after cheer greeted
him as he rode into camp. aud it became
known that he was our Colonel. He is 8
man that the men love. and one whom they
will follow longer and further over con-
tested fsld than any other man could lead
them"
