where does Massachusetts standq

-
The darkest hour of the American Rev
olution came on soon after the adoption
by the State of the Declaration OF indie
pendence. 1t was o after the terrible
defeat on Long Island, that the British
General Howe, and Admiral Lord Howe,
acting on behalf of the British Govern
ment, which supposed the Americans
tottering under that defeat, would make
compromise, invited a Committee from
the Continental Congress to meet them
at Point Amboy- On that Committee was
John Adams, who had a different idea of
compromise from that of his ~deScendent
Charles Francis. When the committee
entered the presence of the British Gen
eral and Admiral, who would not recog-
nize their official character, some embar-
Tsssment ensued. Lord Howe, said Gen
tlemen we have INVITED you to this Con
ference. but do not know exactly in what
capacity to regard you" Adams straight
ened up and said: Regard us in what
light you please sreept as the subjects Of
George the Third"
Such was the reply that Massachusetts
made on the fourth of November to the
tools of Slavery in this country. The ma
ton may regard that triumph as Republi-
can, or for the Administration, or for the
war, or anything; but one thing speaks
pat in clarion tones, -Massachusstts' De
elaration of independence of Slavery is
written, and she is ready to seal it with
her blood. She does not support the de-
lays, the weakness. the dangerous ~inactiv-
ity of the Administration; but The Ediet
of Emancipation, she does sustain. Had
it not been for that Edict, the Admins
tration would have been covered with de-
feat in this State. 1t was the one issue
IN every mind; and she sends word to the
President that when he makes that Edict
. reality. whether tomorrow or on the
first of January, his need shall be her law.
We are anything except the subjects of
Slavery Boston Commonwealth.

Second Ohio Cavalry.

The Second Ohio Cavalry has at last re-
ceived orders to return to Ohio, and is
probably now on its way to Camp Den
nison. Capt. Wicks, of Co. |, went down
TO Washington to present the condition
of the regiment to Gen. Halleck, with
the hope of its being withdrawn from the
Kansas Department. Since then orders
have been issued for the disarmament of
the battery attached to the regiment,
and the relieving of the men on detached
duty. Adiutant Gen. Wright has also
ordered the regiment to return 10 Camp

GREAT Loss OF OIL.-The pond freshets
nOl Creek last weekly which the oil is
ioated from the wells to the river for
shipment, were very destructive of prop
erty. A large number of boats were
sunk, and the Pittsburgh Gazette states
that from 5000 70 10000 barrels of oil
were lost o. rendered unmarketabie by
the freshets, and that $1,000 o will not
cover the loss. The boats along Oil
Creek were all loaded, the freshets broke
them loose, they run over and run down
each other, and Sc wrecks of boats were
counted between the Tar farm and the
Oil Creek bridge. A great portion of the
oil in barrels will be saved that in bulk
a total loss.

the speedy termination of the war as at
the present moment, and that it is the
duty of all loyal American citizens, re.
CARELESS of minor differences OF opinion,
especially it is the duty of every Officer
and soldier and of those in every branch
of the government, including legislative,
cordially to strike the assassins at once
who have conspired to destroy u exis-
tence, prosperity and freedom, of which
we are justly proud at home and abroad,
and which we stand pledged to perpetu
ate forever.
