SLAVERY.


Whatever may be the final result of the
present struggle, the fate of slavery is sealed.
No difference what plan is hit upon to bring
back the revolted States to the Union, we
hope and believe. that no favor will be
shown to the establishment of slavery
A majority of the people of the South, when
they come to see that the institution which
caused the war, and which has always been
a thorn in the side of the Government, is
practically abolished, by the operations Of
the war, will say amen to the total annihi-
lation of negro slavery. They will realize
that it is slavery that has ruined their coun-
try, and will cry out, away with it. The
people of the North should support no men
or build up no party that has not inscribed
on It's banners; "The total and immediate
abolition ofslavery." We should. in times
to come, as we have for the past year, stand
by the proclamation of our noble President,
on this question.

WON'T Do TO TRUST.

We are informed that great many bush
whackers are coming into Fort Scott and
other points, and enlisting in the new regi
ments. These are the same dirty dogs that
came back from Price last spr'ng year ago,
and took the oath of allegiance, and raised
crop, and then, last fall, when Coffey came
up into Missouri, they were organized and
went with him. Their real object we believe
is to join our army to act as spies. We
had talk few days ago with an intelligent
refugee from Missouri. who has been here
about year. He had just returned from
Fort Scott, and while there be met some of
his old neighbors whom he knew to be no
torious rebels few months ago, and who
had now joined our forces. He says he has
no confidence in them and thinks they are
going in for the real purpose of aiding the
bushwhackers as spies. They had better
be shot than taken in our army.
