a great deal has been said and written
about what might have been the result II
Shields had only prevented Jackson from
crossing the river at Port Republic, just as
a great deal has been and viii ever be said
about what might have happened if Hanni-

official and unofficial, We have come to
regard his crossing as probably g proViden-
tial blessing for us. He was bound 70 End
an escape for his army. ofthet We can all
feel certain. His recent exploits had not
been of such nature as to domoralize his
army; on the contrary they must have felt
rather flushed with the general success of
their adveuturesOme raid down the Valley.
True, they had been pursued and fed and
aud had Ueen harrasssd not q little, aud had
experienced quite a loss at Gross Keys;
but they were kept compact, under good
discipline, and eVinesd no backward
ness about turning around and giving bat
tie when they were too hotly pressed
And what is more, they knew, as We have
since found ont, that achievements were
not far away, and that they had but to
eight and hold ON to get the help they
wanted. Under these circumstances 1t is
very hazardous to say that Jackson would
have either surrendered or been defeated,
had he not escaped across the river at Port
Republie. His natural course would have
been to have turned about ON Fremont and
cut through his army, aud then filed of to
the left and down to Stanton, via New
Haven. Every account proves that his
force was larger aud more effective than
Fremout's, aud the fighting indicates that
the men could be relied on to do Jackson's
work. An enemy cornsred, who knows the
country, aud who is bent on escape, and
has the pluck that Jackson's army has
eviueed, would be a dangerous foe, indeed
to put to desperation, especially against q
foe that was worn down aud worn out, a.

The 1Fi5WIle's Washington correspon-
dent states that Governor Peirpoint, of
Virginia, has, stsinee his return from the
Peninsula, expressed himself yery strongly
against the policy pursued there of keep
ing our men at work on intrenchments
and engaged in other mental occupations,
while thousands of blacks are unemplo-
yed. BE says that the work of common
day labOrers should not, except in cases
ofdire necessity, especially IN q country
SO dangerous to health as the peninsula,
be added to TIDE severe duties OF soldier.
He declares himself in favor of impressing
all the able-bOdied negroes within reach
into service, both those who ran away
from their masters and those who are
still engaged in raising rebel arm"
We are glad to find Yirginian and a
conservative man taking this ground.
But in truth it is not the southern men
who refuse to employ negroes, but only
the northern worshippers of slavery.
These people think It dreadful that
negro who is some rebels slave should
relieve q loyal soldier from the drndgery
and hard labor of campaign. They
stick by their friends, the slave-owing
rebels, and do their best TO have these
runaway black chattels ca efulIy preser-
red and returned to the owner who is
fighting us But loyal Yirginian like
Governor Peirpoint is IN favor Of using
the negroes for the hard work which is
exhausting our soldiers, and leaving
them the stronger and ADLER to meet the
enemy.
1t is perhaps this last view which does
not suit the rebelliOnists in the North.
General McCIellan's army before Rich
monL is greatly weakened by sickness,
consequent on Its severe labors in the
trenches, and in other duties which
negroes can just as we'll do he is con-
tinually asking for reinforcments. 1.-THE
northern friends of Davis can only keep
the government from using tile negroes
to relieve our over-BOrked soldiers, they
h0pe that before long we shall be SO far
weakened that the rebels may be able to
drive our Potomac army back and per
haps destroy it 1t is one of the few
chances remaining to Davis and the rebel
lionists of the North, and they catch al
every straw.
