of Blacks to-day in The county could speedily
incline the hesitating scale of this tremendous
conflict to the side of Liberty and Union if
they only would; and they gladly would if they
were assured they would thereupoD be treated
by US as men. But while they are denied the
privilege of lighting for the country as men,
maltreated by COpperhead soldiers for aspiring
to it, and their houses burned over their heads
by Copperhead rowdies in revenge for q crime
in which they had no part they will generally
stand perplexed and irresolute while the Ma
ton trembles on tho brink of ruin. Should
pride of caste, and the more hateful hypocrisy
which affects scorn it has too much sense to
feel, impel this country to destroy itself rather
than destroy its arch.enemy, Slavery, the his
tory of mankind may safely be challenged for
an instance of more signal and righteous retri-
button.
But we will not believe persistence in such
madness possible. Slavery alone desires Dis
union. Were Slavery dead to-day, all the
Vaccinations Of oil the dsspots and aristocrats
on earth could not keep the Rebellion alive 70
the end of the year. Disunion would thence
forth seem as mOnstrous. suicidal folly as an
attempt to detach our planet from the solar
system. Let Government aud People OF the
loyal States but earnestly cay, "Savery. our
bane and peril. shall die that the Union may
live :" md the issue can no longer be doubtful
nor far distant. Of the hundreds OF loyal
refugees from Rebellion, we never met one
who did not share ths conviction. What we
mainly need is thoroughness in our officers IN
the field in giving effect to the policy OF EVAN
cipation. Give us ninety days of that and the
Rrb,llion will be but wreck and a shadow.
And this, we iopdly hope, it must and shall be.

THE HONOR OF THE BENCH.

There is rumor in this city that the Supreme
Court is about to deliver an opinion at General
Term denying the power of Congress to authorize
the issue of currency which shall be legal tender
for the payment of debts contracted previously TO
the passage of the act. We do not refer 10 1t this

Of Congress to make the National
currency q legal tender for any purpose wers

But in this case il is only requisite for tSs
Court to consider the payment Of debts before
the act and its decision may De reviewed by
the Court of Appeals Of this State, and i I'D.
ver.e 10 the power Of Congress by the 81.
preme Court of tho United States.
We do thJk il necessary to ask why there
is any rumor on such subject, and why in
some quarters it takes the shape Of a confident
assertion Whether the fact be az above stated
or not, it is true that there are men 10 this city
who believe that they know it, who have had
information from some source on which that
belief is based aDd who have already acted %
the strength OF their belief. IL is obvious that
if such decision is about to be givsa,
although it is from an inferior court.
the value Of mortgages and other
instruments executed before the law was passed
will be seriously affected. Parties 10 such 10.

is therefore question OF the greatest nseres,

We have returns from New Hampshire SUI
ficient to know that the desperate attempt to
elect a Democratic Governor las failed, aud
tina, the good old Granite State adheres to the
Union and the Constitution There is no
choice for Governor-.he vote between Gil
more, Republican, and Eastman, Democrat, is
very close. varying only pa in one hundred
towns. Hartman, the third candidate, has
over ,, 600 votes; 40 there il no choice for
Governor By the People, as clear majority
is necessary to all election. Bat Republican
Governor is certain; the Legislature, on whom
the choice will deyolye, is largely Republican.
Ia view Of the great drain of Republican voters
for the war, and the Herculeon efforts made
by the Democracy 10 secure victory, this
result is even more than we had reason to
hope. The vote is heavy, and the Copperheads
got out every man; but the Republicans, though
working under discouragng disadvantages, met
them with true spirit and contested every inch
of ground. OF all the large towns, only Man.
