STRINGENT MEASURES OF The
CONFISCATION BILL.

Common Sense is rapidly gaining the ascen-
dency over Conservatism" and the hills of the
whole loyal North are reverbernting with the
ery, Let us have War" Heart-sck and dis
gusted, as every loyal man must be by this time.
with the sugar-coated dilly-dallying policy Of
those in power, We join in the demand that such
be done away with, and that the contest for the
preservation Of the Government be carried on
in the spirit of War The rebels are in earnest
and made desperate by the waning of their Star
of Empire. it must be apparent to every sane
man that War and not conciliation is necessary
TO again crown our land with Peace. 1t is also
is death, been meted the savages at the begin
ming of strife, We would now have been spared
the dark and impenetrable future. But expe-
rience is dear school, and the mos. doubtful
have been made to acknowledge the barbarity OF
man-selling, and the low ebb Of manhood ensen-
dered By it.
At this critical moment the Government should
but consult the happiness Of the present and
future generations by bringing into requisition
everything on Gods earth, consistent with the
honor Of the Nation, THAT CAN KILL REBELS. Why
any doubt should exist in the minds of loyal
men as to the propriety Of arming negroes against
the enemies of our Country We cannot under
stand 1t is rather q marked inconsistency. As
to their abilities, history affords many proofs of
their valor-in the face Of which, who can now
question their usefulness, when actuated BY
desire for Freedom. That they would be fit and
formidable antagonists for their enslavers admits
of no doubt The sole aim. then, of every war
measure from this on should be-kILL REBELS.
But, since the above was written. We have
received the gratifying intelligence Of the pas
sage of the Confscation Bill, and its approval by
the President. Thus is the Nation aroused from
Its lethargy and the habiliments Of War to be
assumed in earnest by its defenders in the field
While amnesty awaits them in the background,
let the cold steel be pushed to them until they
yield to the power Of the Union. In the bill,
which is now law, much room for clemency is
left the President. The property of Rebels is
conhscated to the Republic, and all their slaves,
who come into the Union lines, are declared for
ever free. The President is authorized to employ
persons Of African decent for the suppression of
the Rebellion, in such manner rs he nav deem
best and he is authorized to make prov yision for
eclonizing the blacks beyond the limit of the
United States. These are the importan. features
Of the law.
The bill was likely to have been vetoed by the
President, because Of its declaring forfeiture and
extending beyond the lives of the guilty parties
which confiicted with that clause Of the Consti-
tuition that declares that no attainder of treason
shal work corruption of blood or forfeiture except
during the life Of the person attained" 1t was
20 modified as not 10 confscate the real estate of
traitor except during the life Of the traitor.

A UNION OF LOYALIsTs.

Issues colneeted with the State canvass are
now Pretty generally being discussed by the
press of the State. We have learned nothing Of
the action Of The State Committee, which assem-
bied at Lawrence last Wednesday. The Topeka
Record suggests the propriety of holding the
Nominating \ Convention at as late day as the
conduct Of the campaign will admit, and that
the delegates be elected on the basis of the rep
resentation in the Legislature. The lines OF
demarkation between loyalists and rebels are 30
plainly laid down, and acceeded to by our people,
that there seems to be no question OF that made.
Disgraceful as an admission Of the fact is. we
have scarcely noticed q newspaper article on
the subject in which Honesty was not more par.
tcularly dwelt upon than anything else con-
nected with the canvass. This the taxpayers
are unit on-their all depends upon the selec-
ton Of men who will not betrav therr. They
know that with the State Government another
year in the hands Of such as now hold it. they
will be irretrievably ruined. 1t is indeed not
very acceptable to conduct campaign on the
bare issue Of Honesty-it places our affairs in
rather bad light-but such is the lamentable
&C. upon it, the sooner they will be saved from
the frightful vortex of bankruptcy now threaten
ing them.
To this object the united efforts of the people
must be combined and accelerated. This can
only be effected by union of the masses, with
out regard to past party connections, on common
platform. Why cling longer to mere name :!
Last week We recited the acts Of Congress, where
in the Republican party have accomplished all
set forth in their platform and now we have the
passage of the Con6scation Bill, which in its
provisions viii give Freedom to over half the
slaves of the country. This it will be seen strips
US of almost the name, for the that it does
more for Freedom than merely restricting the
boundaries of slavery. The redemption Of the
State cannot be accomplished by one man, or q
dozen they may aid the matter but the work
must BE- accomplished by UNITED rEcrIE-by
their enthusiasm: and persistence On them then
rests this grave responsibility. :.
