SPIRIT OF THE MoRN1NG pRRss. :


The Lsteui0eneer notes the fact that the insur-
r: ction in Poland has, shown mon -interyen-
ton to be the system .and pohcy now Of the
European nations, and that Dir. Secretary Se-
ward in his reply TO the recent proposition OF
ths-Freneh Government merely claimed in
behalf of the United States the application OF
the same wholesome doctrines which France
had already affirmed IN regard to the insurrec-
ton of the Poles against line Russian Govern
ment. In this view the courteous rejection of
the, French proposition by our Government
seems to have been received by all parties in
Paris as q definite settlement OF the matter in
ssue-preciuding the opportunity or the pro-
priety OF further o.ertures of similar kind.
This shows the great practical excellence and
the intrinsic value of the Secretarys reply. 1t
shut off all attempts at Interference or ictation
from any quarter. In effscting this, it rendered
us the highest possible service in Europe.
The Chroniele says the difference between the
poiiticsl parties at the North is, that one party
is in favor Of prosecuting the war to its legiti-
masn end, and conquering an honorable and
permanent peace wsils the other is in favor of
stopping all military operations, drawing our
:oldisrs from the field. and to sue for peace at
she feet Of humiliated, beaten and half. star vsd
rebels.

The trade on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
has opened unusually brisk, cargoes of all de-
scriptions are arriving daily, and if we were:pre-
the merchants, labcrers and canal company
might reap rich har vest this season; but unfor.
tunately for the trade, we cannot handle more
than thir of the coal that usually arrives,
and the Alexandria canal being closed, there is
no outlet for the surplus trade, aud will not be
at present, unless we can succeed In raising the
bridges in order to let the boats pass out into
the river. This subject suppose will be dis
cussed at the next meeting Of the Common
Council, and if permission be granted to raise
the bridges we will have added 10 our trade
new impetus; but if this privilege be refusedit
will not only inj jure the trade on the canal, but
may materially damage our port by forcing
this surplus trade to seek an outlet in some
other way, and most probably by again open

OUR MILITARY BUDGET
THE REBELS In A DESPONDENT
MOOD. 50 10 kss
NO HOPE or PEACE BEAMS UPON THE
REBELS
THE YASKEE ENEMY ONLY BEGINNfsG
TO FIGHT"

The Richmond Enquirer Is N a most de-
spondent mood, and says:
ssAll reasonable men has e by this time prob
ably come to the conclusion that we have at
least one other years war before us, perhaps
two. The peace delusion is blown away
Neither from foreign Intervention nor from
imperious decrees.. King Cotton, nor from
imagined friendship Of Northwest, nor from
stupid rumor about decentralization in Yankee
armies, does any hope Of peace beam upon us.
We must fight or submit. What hallueInation
soever may be cherished b. some politicians,
the soldiers in the field at least want to know,
and ought to be told the plain truth, and the
truth is that we are right in the middle of the
war, and that during thea coming spring and
summer that war is to be more fierce and unre.
lenting than ever before, The Yankee enemy
is only beginning to fight To buy pro visi ions
for the army at current rates would call for the
imposition of a debt upon posterity such. as
would make our children curse us in our gra YES.
Great Union meetings are the order OF the day
at the North. s'

burg and the crushed rebellion writhing in ago.
ny. In two words, we are going to have great
campaign, and the greatest Of all. The army
wants every soldier. The country must and
will sustain and arm them. If high spirit and
honor do not impel stragglers to their duties let
public opinion do it. Let women present
crotchet needles to all laggards at home, as they
formerly sent spinning distaffs to too patient
gentlemen of France.
sThe crisis Is upon us. The sun rises high,
and spring breeZes are making favorable and
verdant battle fields and firm earth beneath the

THE NEGRO TROOPS.

1t Is worthy of note that the latest in for.
nation from Port Royal chronicles the much
greater success of the policy of employing ne
grofs as soldiers than was anticipated by a
large portion of the people Of the loyal States
ourself among the number. We learned from
Assistant Adjutant General Townsend on his
return from the Department of South Caro-
lima, facts concerning the condition of the first
regiment of the kind brough, into the field that
prepared us to hear, at later day, of the sue
cess of the experiment. Col. Townsend as.
sured US that they were remarkably we'll
drilled. cleanly, and obedient troops, evincing
a condition of discipline that augured well for
their efficiency before the enemy. Already we
have news that they are satisfactorily fulfill.
ing these expectations. So far, their first e1-
pedltioA into the interior has been a complete
success; for they had, when last heard from,
accomplished ever. thing hoped for up to that
time from them; and, besides, had so conduct
fd themselves III the rebel country Us to prove
that SO far IA the are concerned, the appre-
tensions entertained by many that where yer
they penetrated, fndiscriminate rapne arson
and murder OF defenceless non -com batants
would attend their footsteps, were entirely
Erounoless On the contrary, it turns out tn at
the United States has more orderly and
well-eonducted troops in the service than this
same negro regiment. 1t is due to the truth
and the calse that these facts should be prompt
1y realized by the country at large.
Those who are thoroughly loyal, who orig
'nally objected to the employment of negroes
rs soldiers, SO objected because apprehensiye
that their uss would do more harm than good.
and will hail the success of the experiment, as
explained above, with sincere qualification; as,
II successful, the policy must be Of great i'm.
portance in weakening the rebels and strength
ening the Union cause. The good conduct Of
these troops and their success in the had,
seem to bid fair rapidly to dissipate popular
prejudice against their employment, while
they will also be the means Of inducing nearly
all the able bodied contrabands to enlist in our
service as fast as they escape from the clutches
of the rebels.
