and to weaken, cripple and crush ont, by all
available means, rebellion aiming to under
mine its national existence.
/ That the President has foreborne long, be-
fore taking his final step, was to be expected
of one who had so often denied the right of
intervention in the domestic institutions of
the states but when the seeding states
themselves made the issue-slavery against
the government-resorted to arms to over
throw the constitution, and to carve out of
our dsmembered territory an oligarchy, the
chief corner stone of which was to be slavery
as perpetual institution; and when also it
cannot be denied that slavery is the practical
element in support of the rebellion; l main
tain, under all the circumstances, the procla-
nation was not only justi6able, but inevi-
table.
I Indeed, it seems that Providence has pro-
tracted this war and subjected our people to
frequent humiliations and reverses. for the
purpose Of making the destruction of slavery
inevitable. If the first impressions enter
tanned by the President and the nation-that
the levy of seventy-ive thousand men was
sufficient to intimidate the rebels into SUBJ
mission, if our arms in the first instance had
been everywhere triumphant; if the grand
army of the Potomac had driven back the
rebels at Manassas, had taken Richmond,
and planted the flag upon the capitol of every
state, and we had everywhere been victorious,
by land and by sea, crushing the enemy as it
were within the contracting folds Of fearful
anaconda, and the enemy had returned to
the rightful authority of the Government,
then undoubtedly the Union would have been
restored with the same blisterins curse of
slavery to rest upon us forever in the future,
as it had been in the past, a perpetual ele-
ment of strife and heart burning. Under
such state of things the necessity would
not have arisen under which slavery could
have been constitutionally abolished. But
row the necessity of emancipation is forced
upon US by the inevitable events of tie war,
and is made constitutional by the act of the
rebels themselves, and the only road out of
this war is by blows aimed Al the heart of
the rebellion, in the entire demolition of the
evil which is the cause of all our present
fearful complications. 1t is now made pal
pably striking, that if slavery should be left
undisturbed, the war would be protracted
until the loss of life and national bankruptcy
would make psace desirable upon any terms.
Hence slavery must be removed. Thus the
rebellion which was designed to perpetuate
slavery and plant it upon an enduring basis,
is now, under righteous Providence being
made the instrument to destroy it, and to
consummate peace upon the solid and endur-
Ing basis of universal liberty.

know full we'll what an "apple of discord "
this slavery has been, hence their "honest
wrath as they see it is to be placed forever
among the things that have been.
Nothing of interest happened on our jour
ney and We arrived at Columbia about o.
clock, P. NJ, the first day OF Jan. 1862.
1t was not the most happy new year We
had spent, but what We lacked in happiness
we made up in sport.
We held session of Congress, and did as
many foolish things. l doubt not, as ever a
real Congress did. The Confederate soldiers
and officers seemed annoyed at our cheerful
ness. They seemed greatly disappointed in
our appearances and actions, having got the
idea from Charleston that We were little better
than banditti. There were no insults offered
US, and the Jail where We were confined was
clean and wholesome. The men were placed
in sheds built for the purpose. We found
Capt Shiver, the officer in charge. a gentle
man. SO were his officers. They did all
they could for us. But the people could not
endure to see US allowed any privileges. The
Irish brought Col Corcoran his meals every
day, so he and bis officers here, as at Charles
ton, had very good food and many comforts
that others were unable to have. The ma
sons also visited the prisoners, and did great
deal for the comfort of the fraternity.
On the whole our treatment at Columbia
was very just and humane. But Capt Shi,
yer and his officers were afterwards punished
for showing SO much kindness to US. Here
again, we were held hostages for bridge
burners that Gen Halleck had threatened
to hang.
We lost but few men here, though some
died afterwards from hardship and exposure
who had made their escape and were rttaken.
There were several political prisoners here
among them German, who was in for tam
peri1g with slaves,"-a himsy charge, got
up because he was rich and would give moth
ing for the rebellion.

Our journey to Columbia was the pleas
ATTEST one We had in any part of the
South. The sound of Yankee guns and the
movement of Northern armies. were creating
something like respect for the Union soldiers.
AS We left the city, we could see thousands
OF negroes al work on the Notifications, and
we met large bodies of troops that had Just
come from Manassas.
The Niger is certainly a great insti-
tuition. At the south they can send into the
field all the able bodied men and boys, and
feel sure that the negroes will till the soil
and raise their food. Then, too, in the army
they have their teams driven by negroes
their horses cared for by negroes, their cooks
are negroes, their servants negroes their
drummers, fifers and pioneers are generally
colored men, guides, scouts, spies, foragers
blacksmiths, coopers, thinkers, carpenters, tai
lors, saddlers, harness-makers, braziers, gun.
smiths, boatmen, pontoonmen, engineers
brakemen, conductors, workmen, and so in
many other crafts, are negroes. To give you
something of an idea of the service the rebels
get from their negroes, will give the sla,is
tics l got from Col R, of Charleston, S
I G.
His regiment consisted Of ten companies
and at that time was 500 strong. Here
copy from my journal:
Col r. told me of the 500 men, he hac
nearly 800 who were wealthy planters, hav
ing from % to 200 slaves. From his con
versation, was able to make out the follow
ing list:
Company \, so whites, 20 blacks. Aver
age in every company, so whites, and q
! blacks.
Company A,-blacks-3 cooks, 3 walters
3 mechanics, 3 laborers, 3 wood-choppers,
guides and 3 musicians.
Taking this as an average, and We have il
one regiment, 200 efficient blacks to do tn
work that would otherwise require 200 whit
nsn. Then all the remaining slaves owne
by these rebel planters, can surely do tn
work of 200 more white men; thus wit
their slaves these 500 rebels are as good a
900 soldiers.
Certainly no honest patriot can for me
ment condemn the policy that strips thes
. rebels Of such a strong arm as their slave!
