THE NEGRO.


Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands
unto God, Psalm, 63: 81. Ifthe scriptures
are the revealed will of God, which we firm
ly believe them be, it is our duty to re-
gard their teachings, despite the attempt of
political demagogues to impugn the =" higher
law" There is no truth more forcibly
tBught us, by these divine revelations, than
that it is our duty to resist oppression-to
unloose the heavy burthens, and let the op-
pressed go free. Failing, as people, to
fulfil this command Of God, we aIe now
reaping the bitter fruits of our disobedence
That slavery was forced upon us by the
avarice of England, while ourselves in colo
MEL vassalage, is no fault of ours. The
fathers of our country saw, and deplored
the evil, and Jefferson used this as one of
his weighty arguments against the oppres-
sion OF the mother country, in that immor-
tai instrument, the Declaration of Indepen-
derce. The declaration {. that all men arc
born free and equal" did not, as the wise
Speaker (Sordon) of the Delaware Legisla
ture declared, originate with the Chicago
Platform-makers, but, is a part of our bill Of
rights, As set forth in tue formation of our
goyernment Our fathers began right, bu.
unfortunately, were tempted by the slave
power to commit great wrong in compro-
missing and guaranteeing with "the sum OF
, all vilainies, as John Wesley characterized
slavery. The last compromise, the fugitive
slave law, capt the climax, and paved the
> way for the present rebellion. In its pas
sage, by the aid of non-slave-holders the
slave power became more arrogant, and
presuming in their demands, and finally
declared that they not only had the right to
carry their peculiar institution into the Ter
ritories, but that the Constitution, per Sc
carried slavery into the free States. Thi:
was the feather that broke the back of the
. camel The non-slaveholding States declar

The Minority Report.

The following is the minority report of
the Joint Committee of the General Assem-
bly,, appointed on the Special Message and
Proclamation of Gov. Cannon.
The undersigned, minority of the commit
tee, to whom was referred the Special Mes
sage of the Governor, having reference to
the g Act for the prevention of illegal ar
rests" ask leave to report:
That they believe that the action of the
Governor in transmitting the message re-
ferred to their consideration, was prompted
by patriotic and commendable motives, and
that it furnished timely and effective an
tidote to the poisonous qualities of a statute
that otherwise must have been pernicious.
1t seem apparent to the undersigned, that
though it may not have been so designed,
the statute to which the Message of the
Governor refers, was calculated to raise the
hopes and advance the ends of those who
sympathise with the rebellion, which seeks
the destruction of the Union. Its passage,
we believe, will be hailed with qualification
by every one who desires that the State
authorities may be brought into collision
with the National Government
The undersigned believe, that it has been
the aim of desperate factionists and disloyal
men to arouse feeling in the Northern
State. hostile to the Administration, upon
the pretence of the invasion of State rights,
and the passage of the act would have been
paraded as showing that the State of Del
aware was disposed to resist the exercise Of
the National authority, in matters vital tc
the security of the government Its prac
tcal effect would have been to have forward
ed the designs Of conspirators against the
authority of the government, by holding
out the idea that they were secure from In
reference, and aid and comfort would have
been rendered to the public enemy, by thu
apparent manifestation of growing state
of public sentiment favorable to the rebel
lion.
The National government would probabl,
have been compelled to the necessity o
arrests, growing out of the bold operation
of those disatfected persons, who from
sense of greater security would have bcel

From the Richmond Enquirer OF March 5th.l
A Southern Voice to the oopperheads

From of old it was held perilous for mon
to cry peace! peace! when there was no
peace The dangers of it for us at this
moment are manifold. 1t encourages the
planting of cotton instead of corn it I'M
settles the minds of our soldiers in the field,
which is decentralization it stimulates the
enemy to more vigorous prosecution Of the
war, by the idea that ,Ve are SO tired of
it.
There are some who reproach the Eaqu-
rpr with being an advocate of war, and not
of peace This is somewhat unreasonable
Is any one offering peace? Look round

land, that you discern any taintest futter of

bottomiess gulf of blood, one universal car
nival of slaughter, and ravage and ruin.
"True, there is one way by which the
Southern Confedorats could Immediately
regain all the blessings of peace it is by
enthusiastically reconstruction-by desist-
ing from the &C rebellion" and delivering up
our ringleaders to the punishment of the
laws they have trampled upon. Is there,

acy who would have peace at any price

TEMPERANCE REroRM AT TIE SoUTH-
The chivalry at the South are restrained
from indulglng in their favorite luxurious
habit of drunkenness by the high price of
liquors of all kinds A month ago, accord
ing to letter from Richmond to the Jack
son (Miss) An'oat, single "smile," or
drink of what is described as g the most dia-
bolical whiskey," cost one dollar, and barrel
of whiskey has been sold for S1,375
Since then the prices of everything have
nearly doubled, as has the price Of gold,
and now the luxury of drinking must be
confined pretty much to office-holders, gov
ernment contractors and others who con-
trive to live at the public expense. Ifthe
war continues, the Southern people will be
the subjects of a general temperance reform
Their poverty, not their will, consents tC
this. The war is having the effect of the
most stringent Maine law. When it is
over, the drunken habits of the mass of the
people will be so much broken up, that we
shall be able to welcome "our Southern
brethren" back into the Union as quite
decent, sober fellows.
