it has continually grown stronger and more de-
SAINT, until, at last, it has risen in rebellion
against the Government, the Constitution and
the Laws, and openly and shamelessy declares
that she Declaration OF Independence was lie,
and that the ouly true Government is one which
rests On Slavery. Thus the ,ebelion is endeav.
oring by fore to reverse the ideas for the main.
tenance of which this country separated from
Great Britain, aud TO give the lie to all the
early history of our Republic. And the ques-
ton for this generation to settle ID, Shall
such rebellion succeed Shall the light
which dawned upon the world eighty-seven
years ago be absorbed in the blackness of the
stakeholder treason of to-day, and the night
OF despotlsm succeed the day of liberty?
These are no trdlng questions. The recent
movements of rebel armies, carrying the banners
OF Slavery into free States, are only foretaste
OF what the nation must endure if rebellion sue
ceeds. Slavery will never be content with d.
Vlded empire on this continent 1t has taken
the sword to establish military despotism,
and there will not be peace again between the
lakes and the gulf, till it has persisted by the
sword. The nation must return to the Decla-
ration OF Independence, and fight from that
base, before 1t will conquer any valuable or
lasting peace. Those truths carried us through
one seven years war to final triumph and Sc
cured nationality, were our pillar of cloud by
day and our pillar of fire by night, and they
have vitality eaough to carry US through another
war to grander triumph than we won over the
army of England and to better and purer ma
tlonallty than was established at the first. Let
US adhere to those truths now, never lose sight
of them in this struggle, and in their support
anew pledge our lives, our fortunes and our sa-
cred honor.

GEN. HOOKER LEAVING HIS OFFICERS.


In the afternoon Gen. Hooker took leave of his
officers who appeared in full dress upon the occs-
sion. They were drawn up in line. He passed
them, shaking hands with each, and laboring
hard to stife his EN- tion in vain The tears
rolled down bis cheeks. His officers in turn we're
deeply affected. He made but few remarks, say
| ing that he had hoped to lead them to victory,
but the powers above him had OF erwise ordered
and for a time he was to be exiled to Baltimore.
He hoped they might meet under happier aus
pices.
He spoke in high terms of Gen. Meade He
believed him to be true soldier and an efficient
officer. He believed they would defeat the enc
my under his lead. He said that the army had
already been the gamer by the change-for what
he bad asked for had been granted to his success.
or. He had examined Maryland nights yester-
day and was confirmed in bis convictions that the
strength of the place had been oyerestimateG.
The nights did not command single ford. He
believed it a correct policy to concentrate men,
TO abandon unimportant positions and use the
troops against the enemy, and he was glad to know
that hs successor could use those troops if in his
Judgment they were needed.
While writing the above have the comments
of six oftcers-captains and ieutenants--all
strangers to me. We are sitting in a parlor,
myself writing, they talking. Here are their
opinions
Well think It is too bad to have him re-
moved just now,' remarked captain.
| wonder if we shall have Mcclellan back ,"
queried lieutenant
Well, gentlemen, you may say what YOU
please, but the Army of the Potomac was never
so well fed and clothed as it has been since Jo-
seph took command" fourth remarked.
" That isso," severa! replied.
Inc officers and soldiers frequently speak of
Gen. Hooker simply by bis Christian name, imi.
tating the Quakers. After momentary silence
one who is putting his pipe takes up the strain
Yes, thu army Oas IN bad condition when
Joseph took command. 1t was dspirited, demon
allied, ragged and bad off every way but it never
was IN better condition than it is to-day, and the
men begin to like him."

says:

lleved that Lee was intending seriously an extern

sired that all The available troops should be placed

IN no especial danger from an attack on the front
and asked for large portion of Heintzleman's

PRESIDENT and men in the Quartermaster's De-
partment were detailed for guard duty. On

Negroes not Barbarians.
BY J. p. BISHOP.

Who are our negro slaves They are men
and women who, during all their lives, have
enjoyed the blessings Of what we are assured
by the highest authority in our land, is one
OF the most bcnctcent Institutions on earth
namely American slavery. Their ancestors;
were indeed barbarians; SO were ours. They
were not born in land of heathenism, of
barbarsm they were not educated by low
and degraded parents. On the other hand
each one of them was born on American soil,
and what is more, whatever might have been
the color or standing of his mother or his
father was born into the hands, into the pow
er, completely in all respects within the con-
troll OF some chivalric white gentleman of
our own race and blood, by whom he has been
reared as this white gentleman, not as some
negro thought fit to direct Moreover, many
OF them bear the best and purest white. gentle
men blood of the country in their veins; and
these were born Of just the mothers whom, in
preference to all others, the white gentlemen
fathers selected.
This last is an immense point in favor Of
the negroes. A peer Of England, after fixing
his eye upon maiden, and feeling in his soul
that unless she becomes the mother Of his
children, the ordly race will run low, may be
rebutted by those cold, terrible words, | do
not love- and so the progeny suffer. But not
so with the American peer OF the lash. In
our more bIlsstul South, the course of true
love- when it follows an ebon maiden, can
never thus be turned back. There the proge-
ny does not suffer.
And though the slave child may not have
a white father according to blood, he has al
ways one, as already minated, according to
law. BY the laws of all the States, where
slavery exists, there is no slave father, there
is no slave mother ; but the law of this most
bonetcent institution, out of tender regard to
the interest of the children, places them in all
respects under the control, under the educa.
ton, under the tender and coDsderate care
OF white gentlemen and their white wives.
Moreover, the white gentlemen into whose
hands the slave babies fall, are not the poor
white trash of the slave States they arc
the wealthy, the refined, the first gentlemen
OF the States.
Such are the slaves, such is their educa-
ton under the benefcent institution. There
can be no baser SANDER than to call them bar.

call them barbarians Say it would be an
outrage In civilized warfare to set them in
battle against the white trash or even the
lordly peers of the lash, of the South No!

The resident population of Virginia City,

estimated at fifteen thousand, the daily aver
age number oftransient visitors being asmany
more. Main street. which, il the broadway
and Wall of the city some three-quarters of o

the city are, provided with vaults andssalaman-
ders the four and 6ve.story brick and iron

both of these Indispensable features Some
of the streets are SO blockaded mp with lum-

unable to get along; common laborcrs get

The city supports four daily newspapers, q

number of negro minstrels and melodeone, to
say nothing of tho institutions already enuner-
ated above.
No one who has not been there can form an
idea of the amount of treasure to be seen in
passing through Main street. At Wells &
Fareo's banking house and express Office 1t is
not uncommon to see tons of sssilver bricks
wheeled in and cut in the conrss of an. hour.
These "bricks' IN shape resemble the ordina-
