Three Of the reverend traitors of
Nashville-BALDwIN, FoRD and ELL
oTT-hOve been deposited for safe keep
ing in the Indiana Penltcutiary. The
last named, who is Northern man by
birth-an Ohioan, we believe-k'pt a
female Seminary at Nashville, from
which he advertised he excluded all
Northern teachers. His return North
can hardly be an agreeable one.

No person hostile in opinion to the
Government and desiring its overthrow
will be allowed to stand for Office in the
District of Kentucky. The attempt of
such person to stand for Office will be
regarded as in itself sufficient evidence
Of his treasoable intent to warrant his
arrest. He who desires the overthrow
of the Government can seek Office un-
der the Government only to promote its
overthrow. In seeking Office he be.
comes an active traitor, if he has never
become one otherwise, and is liable both
in reason and in law to be treated ac-

Negro Substitutes in the Revolu
fiOn

The Patterson (N. J) Guardian
has this timely "reminiscences
Il is a fact not generally known
that during the Revolutionary War,
when Il citizen was drafted in Virginia,
he was .Ilowed to find an able. bodied
man as a substitute, and no distinction
was made on account of color. Very
many of the slave owners sent their
able hands to fight in place of them
selves or their sons, and history says
these sons of Africa tonight bravely and
we'll, spilling their blood freely for our
independence.
I" After the war, these black soldier
patriots desired to be FREE MEN, but
their owners put forth their claims in
every instance, and tho blacks who
survived the war, after having served
till our freedom was achieved, found
out that there was to be no freedom
for them with their owners consent
the owner of slave seldom relaxes his
grasp
The Legislature of Virginia, at the
instance of Thomas Jefferson, in order
to render Justice to these blacks, found
it necessary to pass law declaring
that, having served through the war,
and imperilled their lives for the coun-
try, they were entitled to their free
dom, and law was accordingly passed
to carry into effect this last aud patri.
otto determination.

which we extract the following:
Gen. Wallace, on his appearance, Was
loudly cheered. AS soldier, he consid-

and as such he was bound to obey it. If
not ready to do so, like an honest man he
would ,lsign and 90 home. As far as he
was concerned, be declared that if given

ought to havc been issued SO as to have
taken effect last January instead OF the
coming one. 1t is constitutional, and he
would stand by it. The Generals re
marks were interrupted by repeated and
fong applause.
Gov. Todd said that he was happy that
be was able to say that he could heartily
endorse the Presidents act. Every word
of it received his appreciation it was well
timed the people in the various States
were prepared for it; let the African un-
derstand that he is made free, and the
rebels will be compelled to protect their

Che Governor, at times, was partlcu-

that as far as aggressive war was concern
