The Disunion Character Of the Negro
Army Bill.


The Disunion character Of the negro soldier
bill was well presented by Mr.. Cox, Of Ohio, ir
discussion on that bill 10 the House on Friday
Jan. 80. He referred to some remarks of LOVE
J,Y made In the House the day before, in which
the latter tried TO disguise the fact that he was
for wsging this war for negro liberty but be-
fore be got through, confessed the whole truth
by saying:
"But" say gentlemen, "you want to do
away with slavery" Certainly: "WhyP
serving the Union II is necessary as means,
and not as an end; although God knows the
means are just such means 90 / desire TO be
used. We gain double object. That never
deny.
On this Mr.. Coz commented thus;
"a double object" is III I think, sir, that
the dominant portion Of the other party on the
other side have had a double object from the
beginning. "A double object In this matter
means duplicity. Al the extra session Of this
Congress, on the 22d of July. 1861, they voted
for one particular line Of policy upon which
this war was to be conducted. They then
seemed to have single object; but since that
doubled that object This bill is of piece
With their whole policy. Ibelieve, Mr.. Speak.
or, what think is now the general sentiment
of the people, that that policy has hidden oh
jeot; and this bill, as part of It, 10 intended
to make this Union utterly impossible There
Ia no union In bill Of this character.
Mr.. Cox was several times interrupted In q
] sneering way by rabid Abolition member, Al.
paIcH, Of Minnesota, and after silencing that
gentleman, be proceeded as follows:
say that l believe the object of gentlemen
In forcing this bill here s to bring about, or
rather make final and forever, q dissolution Of
traordinary proceedings the other night, when
we we're determined to use sll the means which
the laws Of this House gave, to prevent the
passage Of law like this, which is aimed at
| the national life.
The gentlemen from the border States here,
gentlemen from Kentucky and 0hio-for there
are two sides to the bordsT-understan very
we'll the hidden meaning and effect Of this bill.
Every man along the border will tell you that
the Union is forever rendered hopeless If you
pursue this policy Of taking the slaves from
their masters and arm them 10 this civil strife.
Il will only keep alive and aggravate this
alienation ofsectlons. which had ita beginning In
hate, and would have lite end 10 vengeance -
| stated, as my reason for the part took In the
proceedings of our eighteen hours session, that
this bill was part Of the plot to drive the Dor.
der slave States out of the Union, or to place
them in such hostility to the Government as to
hurl our armies at their throats and strsngle
their political life. have been confirmed 10
my belief by the statements of the eloquent
members from Kentucky as well as by the course
of the discussion on the other side.

Letter from the Ninety-Fifth Ohio
BY A MEMBER or COMPANY A.
CAMr NEAR MEMPHIS. Jan. 25, ls6

CAMP NEAR MEMPHIS. Jan. 25, 1863
DEAR CouuN-We arrived at Cincinnati about
seven O'Clock on the evening of the same day
(Sunday, Jan. lS) on which we left Columbus,
and went aboard the steamer Magnolia. We
were slowed away on the lower deck, and left
there TO fud our beds among boxes and barrels.
The Magnolia did not leave CINCINNATI until
about six O'Clock the next evening, when the
steam Calliope struck up "Dlxie," and We were
off. Amid the screechiDg of the Callope and the
shouts of the boys considerable din went up
from the Magnolia when, on the night Of the
18Th of January, 1863, the men of tho bloody
95th left their native State in the service of
their country.
The steamer went down the river at the rate
of twenty miles an hour, and next. morning
found as at Louisville. We remained there
until evening, taking on wagons and mules.
These we're placed on the lower deck among
the men, which added of course to the novelty
Of the trip.
In the meantime dense fog had arisen,
and the Captain Of the steamer concluded to
lie BY till morning. We were taken back up
the river about two miles to an Island, where
we lay during the night. The next morning
Wednesday, January 2l) we started early,

remained on the steamer until this morning,
when we came to this camp, about cne mile
south Of Memphis, and In the breastworks Of
Fort Pickering. II ls eituated on the easi
bank Of the Mississippi, about one hundred feet
above the water-level. The bank Is very
steep, and vary dlficult Of ascent or descent.
| You may well imagine We had glorious
time coming down the river, We lived 30 much
like princes Of the s,oinish persuasion --livet
and slept among horses, mules, barrels, hogs
heads, boxes, and almost every ether imagina

you ell, and now am nearly thousand miles
away, and will be In few days, perhaps, still
further of. When think Of IL, IL seems sl
most impossible that ever will return to my
loved home 10 Columbus.
There Ia no certainty as to how long We may
remain here. Some say We are going to de-
Prov OF guard duty In Memphis, bat think We
are only going to remain here for few days
and then proceed down the river.
Since our arrival / have seen quite number
of my friends belonging TO other Ohio Eegi
ments, 90 my stay here does not seem quite &C
| lonesome as 10 otherwise would.
