THE CODE RUTfER

Gen. Butler, with his well known ab1-
ity and comprehensive grasp Of mind, has
issued code Of regulations and instruc-
items for the employment Of negro soldiers
and laborers, and for their government and
protection, and for the mode in which
their women and children shall be- treated
and supported, and for the general super
intendence Of the freedmen, that; cannot
fail to receive the sanction Of the people
and the President Gen. Butler is the
only man who has mastered the intricate
details Of the subject, and has produced q
comprehensive, practical, efficient system
Of regulations At once wise and humane.
VIC hope that no reader failed to give the
important document an attentive perusal
We are sure that those who read it, ad-
mired and endorsed it. This "Code But
ler' ought to be adopted by the War Office,
and applied to every department where
emancipated slaves hare come within our
lines Probably nothing better can be de-
vised; certainly nothing equal TO- it has
been proposed by, any other department
commander. .

THE 5000 EXEMPTION CLAUSE.

THE $500 EXEMPTION CLAUSE.
The $500 exemption clause Of: the Con-
scription Act has been most violently as
sailed by the entire coprerhcad press, from
the date Of its enactment up to last week.
The. cry has been, that 1t WAS provision
inserted for the benefit Of the rich, 1T the
expense Of the poor. It was placing, they
said, The poor rman's Life in one scaleagainst
the rich mans dirty dollars in the other.
The disgracefal and bloody no. that tum-
bled the city Of New York into anarchy,
and covered its pavements with blood, was
chiefly caused by the inflanamatory denun-
!. cistion Of this, section Of the act The
best answer the friends of the Administra-
ton could make was, Keep quiet until Con-
gress meets, and we shall hive the obnox-
1ous section repealed. And true to their
word, on the first day Of the present ses-
:son, Senator Lane Of Indiana, in the Sen
ate, and ME- Arnold, Representative Of this
District, in the House, gave notice that
they would Introduce bills to- repeal the
$500 clause,

officers, whose word will be taken any where

One good result Of the recent campaign has
been the liberation Of hundreds of slaves, who
hive travelled many miles, night and day, to
gain their freedom, enduring nntold-of hard
ships. In conversfng with few Of these
unfortunate creatures, 1 learned that large
numbers Of negroes were ready to decaap
the moment our troops got within reaching
distance. Their owncrs have brutally whip
ped them wherever our cavalry have pene-
trated and carried off poultry Or forage, and
Isaw three Intelligent 1nnlatto girls who were
severely whipped for telling our cavalry
where good water was to be found suitable
for drinking. It is quite encouraging to no.
tice with what kindness cur troops now re-
ceive these fngitiTcs from. cruel bondage.
There is secret society among the slaycs,
