THE Opening of 1863.

The great political event that shall sig
nallze the first day of January, 1868. in
American history, will consist of the
Emancipation Proclamation of President
Lincoln. 1t inaugurates a year of Jubilee
to millions of the down-trodden and on
. pressed sons and daughters of Africa.
who have long stretched forth their i'm.
pioring hands to Heaven for help against
their petty despot masters. But a dav
OF ~deliverance has at last come, not as a
measure OF justice TO them, but as an in
exorable necessity, induced by the mad
ambition and internal pride of Southern
traitors, who in their great anxiety for
the perpetuation of Slavery, sought to,
overturn the very power that made rem
secure in their villainy, and ttere1o'e
instead of making Slavery sf",nsef, 'ney
stripped it of its s%trenefh anu na9'eNeo
to a rapid fulflment me cherished hopes
and exnectations of the philanthropic
and cbristisn men of all nations.
1t is - glorious thing to live in a time
ike this. The world is moving on with
a rush that is amazing to contemplate
Who so sanguine as TO have hoped, FIVE
years ago, that in 1868 a President of the
United States would have had sufficient
of the grace of God in his heart to hurl
an edict of Emancipation directly at the
heart of Slavery! But the idea exists
no longer merely as a great expectation.
1t is a grand. glorious reality; the decree
has gone forth. Thedoom of Slavery has
been written, and henceforward its career
viii be downward, deeper and deeper in
an abyss from whose dark confines there
will be no resurrection.
We publish the Presidents Proclama-
ton in this weeks paper; do not fail to
read it. 1t is second TO no document, in
intense importance, that has ever emana-
ted from an American Executive. 1t
marks a new era IN our history. Let us
all be thankful that Abraham Lincoln
had that resoluteness of viii, that high
tened moral courage that enabled him to
grasp slavery win the strength OF a giant,
and strangle it despite its rage and ven
ON. This is a grand stride in the right
direction. Let the work go on-may the
ball be kept rolling until it has swept
over and e~ncompassed every foot of terri
tory polluted by the presence Of a tyran-
meal STAKEHOLDER. In hope of such a
glorious consummation let us watch and
pray.
