Republicans. Cabinet Ministers, differ as to its
meaning and probable effect. That an army
may free the slaves of an enemy, is a settled
rule of war. The Rebels must expect this
Their conduct has made it necessary and right
to do SO. But if any man fears or hopes that
the Proclamation did, as a matter of law, by
its force, alter the legal status of one slave in
America, on the first of January last, in my
private jugment, he builds his fears or hopes
on the sand It is a military act, and not a
decree of legislator. 1t has no legal effect,
by its own force on the status of the slave.
What is done by the strong arm is done;
what the arm of force does not do, is not
done This is the nature of military act
Its moral effect, as a threat or promise, to the
master or the slave, the probabilities of its
advancing an actual emancipation do not
speak of. I speak of its legal effect on the
legal status of slave who is not freed in fact
by the act of superior. force 1 say this, be-

. The immigration statistics of Canada show
that the number OF skedaddlers from the Uni
ted States who became frie htened at the pros
pect of a. draft, was 1892. These persons
took with them an average of s., 800 each in
American silver, making an aggregate of near
-ly $260oo90 This accounts, in part for the
plethora of United States coin, of which the
Canadians make ehscomplaints The silver
being purchasabIe here at rate from. to 8
per cent. less.sthan gold, was taken by the
skedaddlers, instead OF. the latter coin and
thus it b came spread over the Province, to
the great annoyance of those who were forced
to receive it. - sfs nc
1t is the intention of the Canadian Govern
ment to increase the guards on the Canals
duringt the ensuing summer. The number of .
men on the lower Canals will be doubled,
while the detaehments at Ports Dollhouse and
Colborne, on the Welland Canal, will be in
creased to 80 men respectively. ss.5 e

Editor Democrat:
-fss My attention has been called
to an article copied into your paper of the 1st
inst, headed +" Gen. E. B. Tyler's Court Mar
tial and Sentence" which is incorrect in some
of its statements. Gen, Tyler was found
guilty of writing the letter referred to, but
not guilty of publishing it in the q Harrisburg
Telegraph" and although it was published in
that paper, it did not appear until some forty
days after it was written, and then without
the knowledge or consent of either Con. Ty-
Ter or Gov. Curtin AS the letter was written
at the request of Gov Curtin, and by Gen.
Tyler regarded in the nature of private cor
respondence, no publicity whatever was sought
to be given to it, and the only copies taken
from the book in which it was recorded, were
taken, one by the prosecuting witness, and
another by a witness upon the part of the
prosecution, during the Temporary absence of
Gen. T. at Washington, and without the
knowledge or consent of any member of his
staff, or the clerks employed in the depart
ment. ..ii 5Hzis ti .EF pi ~ fa,
Every other charge and specification not
based upon the single fact Of writing and

GoMaoDoRE WoRpEN - Commodore Wor-
den realizes in his appearance and converse
ton more of the hero than any officer have
yet seen. His powerful and overhanging
brows, deep set, animated eyes, sharp, earnest
features, and bushy, brown features allbecome
instinct withsearnestness and animation when
he speaks of the enemy. Unlike most Of
his fellows, the sad experiences of the last
year and a half have wholly failed to crush
outof him his eager enthusiasm and confd-
ing belief in the, absolute inyincibility of our
cause During the whole fight with Fort

the old New Orleans battlefield, which was
visited about a fortnight since by several men
of the 47th Massachusetts regiment, where
they witnessed the entire process of making
sugar and .melassess. The owner was 10y

5Bdtlers feet sailed up the river they fired
shells into the place doing considerable dam
Out of l50 slaves the owner has now hut 4
dozen, too old or toe. lazy to leave, and he has

board to each laborer, and notwithstanding all
this he expected to make asplendid profit
