Slavery Abolished from the Capital.

WASHINGTON, April l6, 1862.
The following message was received by the
House of representatives, to-day, from the
President
FELLow-CITIzENs OF THE SENATE AND HOUSE
OF REPRESENTATIVES The act entitled "Au
act for the release of certain persons held to
service or labor, in the District of Columbia"
has this day been approved and signed.
l have never doubted the constitutional au-
thOrity of Congress to abolish slavery in this
District, and l have ever desired to see the
National Capital freed from the institution in
some satisfactory way. Hence there has new
er been in my mind any question upon the
subject except the one Of exptdiency, arising
in view Of all the circumstances If there be
matters within and about this act which might
have taken a course or share more satsfacto-
ry to my judgment, do not attempt to speci.
fly them.
| am grati6ed that the two principles of
compensation and colonization are both recog.
nized and practically applied in the act. In
the matter of compensation it is provided that
claims may be presented within ninety days
from the passage of the act, but not thereafter;
and there is no saving for minors, femmes c0uert
insane, ar absent persons presume that this
is au omission by mere oversight, and recon.
mend that it be supplied by an amendatory
or supplemental act.

ARRIVAL OF JEFF. DAVIS IN THE
REBEL CAMP

BALTIMORE, April l3, 1862.
The following is from the special CORES,
poudent Of the Amerjcan =
At intervals last night and this morning
heavy cannonading could be heard in the dl
recton of Yorktown.
A party of deserters who came into our
lines report the arrival of JEFF Davis ia the
rebel camp, and that it was understood he
would take command in the approaching bat
tie. They represent the enemy to be in great
force, aud the work Of intrebcbngIto be progress
sing throughout the peninsula. Re endorsements
were constantly arriving from Norfolk, Fred
ricksburg, and even North Caroliua, and the
rebel generals openly declared their intenton
TO make this the great battle Of the war and
the strongest conviction is expressed OF tri
umph Over the federal forces and of driving
them from the peninsula. There is almost
constant skirnishing going on by the riarmen,
aud occasionally shot aud shell are thrown
with great rapidty.
Just as | was about to close this letter l
learn that there was quite a heavy skrmiSh
this morning beyond Warwick Court House.
on the James river. The enemy attempted to
turn our left flank The attack was made
in quite heavy force but the enemy was re-
pulsed after brisk artillery duel The loss
of the enemy is thought to have been quite
heavy We lost about a dozen in killed and
wounded

The MOVEMENTS AT YoRKrowN.-The indl'
cations multiply that the historic field on which
the liberties of the Republic were frst achieved
is to be tae theatre of the great battle OF the
war for its preservation. All the available
power of the enemy in Virginia is apparently
being concentrated at Yorktown. Not only
are three of their best generals Lee, johnson,
Magruder, believed to be directing their move
ments, but ii is reported that jeff. Davis has
arrived in their camp, and that the chosen
chief of the conspiracy is to struggle in person
for the maintenance of his ill-gotten power.
A victory over such host, thus led, would
be most important. There is little reason,
however, to suppose that it can be easily
achieved The position of the enemy is one
of great strength. Every appliance of art has
been used to render it impregnable. The con-
tending armies appear to be equally con6den
of victory. 1t is evident that all the appliances
of modern warfare will be called into requisi
ton, and, if the battle soon expected occurs,
it will probably prove one of the most desperate
that have ever taken place in any age or
country.

Why GEN BUELL. WAS BEHIND HAND
Concerning the date of the appearance of
Gen. BuelI'o army at Pittsburg Landing, re-
marks the Cincinnati Commercial, there has
been much difference of opinion. A great many
are disposed to censure the General as tardy,
and consider that he might, with exertions
such as the situation demanded have appeared
so as to engage in the battle on Sunday morn
ing. 1t is evident however, that the enemy
counted upon his further detention. Their
cavalry destroyed all the bridges on the route
from Columbia to Pittsburg, and expected to
delay his movements until they had crushed
Grant. Parson Brownlow, whose knowledge
OF the country is intimate, states that he was
in Nashville when Gen. Buell. left that city,
and is surprised that he should have reached
Pittsburg so sooB. Not only were the bridges
DESTROYED, but the streams were high, and for
fifty miles there vas no turnpike, and the rain
fell heavily nearly every night, making the
dirt roads almost impossible. The soil of the
Tennessee bottoms is rich and deep, and the
wonder is not that in such weather Buell. was
so long on the way, but that he was able to
struggle through with his artillery.

No HEART IN Ir.-The correspondent of the
Boston Irauelsr writes of the surrender of
Pulaski
The guns of the fort were poorly worked,
both in accuracy and quickness, and the rea-
son therefor has been made apparent since the
occupation Of it by our troops. Upon deliver
ing up the fort and the garrison as prisoners
of war, several of the Rebel officers remarked
that we had got the fort, but should have to
fight before getting Savannah The Rebels
acknowledge that large majority of the gar,
rson were impressed into the service, and had
no heart in the fight, most Of them finally re-
fusing to work the guns in its defense. They
were mostly Irish and German citizens Of Sa-

ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN THE DISTRICT
OF COLUMBIA.

The bill recently adopted by Congress Tor
the abolition of slavery in the District of Co
lumbia, has been signed by tie President, and
by the message of Mr.. LINCOLN, which will be
found in another column, that, anxious as be
was to comply with the national desire for the
banishment from the capital of the institution
that has exerted so baneful an influence upon
the destinies of the country, he was, if posi-
BILE, still more deSironS that all the rights of
loyal slaVe.owners should be respected. A fur
ther proof of his earnest wish to do them full
justice is afforded by the fact that, of the
three commissioners appointed to investigate
their claims for compensation, one was former,
ly a citizen of North Carolina, and that an
other is the late Mayor of Washington.
1t has long been a matter of reproach to
the American people that their Federal Gov
eminent was surrounded by pro-slavery infu-
ences, and that in the District over which
Congress, by direct authority of the Constitu-
tion, exercised exclusive power of legislation,
slavery was sanctioned and protected. Solely
out of regard to the slave interests Of the ad-
iaCent States, this institution has been protect
ed, under the shadow of the Capitol up to the
present moment. The nation has disregard
ed its own wishes and interests in Difference to
the clsmor and protests of those who, as a
general rule, have proved its most deadly ene-
mics, aud who in the hour of national peril,
sought to destroy it.
The time has come at last when all such
claims upon our courtesy have been violated,
and when sentiment of justice and propriety,
as we'll as the future security Of the arcbieves
and national property Of the Republic demands
shat the great measures of our free Govern
ment should be perfected, and its affairs ad
miuistered, on free soil. While all the rights
of the State should be strictly maintained, the
nation, as a nation, should no longer be in
any way directly responsible for the continued
exstance Of GerVile bondage at any point where
its constitutional power is absolute, and its
right of action ndiSputable.
We notice that many of our democratic ex-
changes are inclined to howl" and yet claim
TO be for the Union. When they exert them
selves as thoroughly TO put down the rebellion
rs they do the Administration, then We shall
have some faith in their motives.
The greater portion of the democratic pa.
pers, as far as we have seen, in this Congress
Sonal district occupy hostile attitude toward
the administration, and it is a significant fact
they all supported JOHN G. BRECKENRIDGE for
the Presidency in 1860 Now the question is
do these papers echo the sentiments of
their party ? and if so have we got to meet
them on Union or disunion issue next fall ?
If SO, let them trot cut their strongest
secesb" candidate, for we are prepared for
anything that smells of the Southern Confed-
eracy.
