The importance Of the recent movement
happily. cousummated in the signature Of
the President attached to the bill for the
emancipation Of slaves in the District Of
Columbia, is to be measured by the sensa-
ton il has caused among the men who love
Slavery better than the Union and would
see the latter oyertErown rather than that
The former should suffer. One of these
lukcwa.m patriots, Of the class in our city
who with strong Southern sympathies We

No slave got the benefit Of the En1ancipa-

than three hundred dollars The interval
kindly offered had allowed the owner of
every chattel worth over that sum to hurry
him out Of reach Of tAe humane proTis-
ion.
So it is not loss of property to any one
that these patriots lament It's the rccog.

Government, in which they read the doom,

On the Commodore Perry, which went to
Cincinnati with load Of wounded, was
Rebel Major, 1--WE did not learn his name} who
had been wounded. He states that before the
fight Beauregard made speech to his men to
the following effect:
The engagement now before them WAS to
be the decisive battle Of this contest; if they
lost, 1t al Was lost; # they gained it. the pros
pect WIS bright They had not had any pay,
and if they failed in this battle, would not get
any, for their money would not be worth
cent if they gained victory, each man should
nave q 900.
This promise it was, says the Major. which
nerved the rebel forces with such desperation
and determination. But 1t WIS all Of no avail,
and they have fed not to be co8xed into ano-

The merit Of the persons for whom this ap-
plication Is made Is highly appreciated By the
War Department, and It would afford the Sec
retarY great pleasure to signify his admiration
and respect by granting the promotion asked,
vice. But it has become on absolute rule, es-
sential to the organization Of the army, that
promotions in the service should be made on
1y in the respective branch. No transfers eau
be made from the regular to the volunteer
service. The application, therefore, cannot
be granted.
