RETALIATION,

The letter from Morris Island, which we
print elsewhere this morning, cannot be read
by any private citizen without . shudder, and
will not be by any member Of the Admnistra-
ton, We trust, without sentiment of remorse
and selfreproach. 1t is one other horrible evil
dence added to the many which for nearly q
year have been steadily accumuating that the
savage threat with which Jefferson Davis re-
sponded to the Proclamation OF Freedom by Presi.
dent Lincoln, has been remorselessy executed in
every opportunity which the fortune Of war
has granted. The Charleston papers record
that six hundred and fifty Of our killed were
buried on the Sunday morning after the assault
on Fort Wagner. The whole number Of our
killed, wounded. and missing, is. by official
reports, but l,5l7. The proportion Of killed
is usually not more than one in six. Here it
is almost one.half, aud it is impossible to
doubt that it is swollen by the deliberate mur.
der Of the wounded.
One hundred and eight of our wounded ore

and men Of the Massachusetts, 54tb. the COL

New-York daily tribune., 1863-07-31

Devil is. they had no possible quarrel founded
in the shadow of equity. will now have tbe
satisfaction of knowing that the principal effect
of their barbarity has been to create in classes
heretofore Indifferent, or to some extent sharing
the low prejudices Of tho base and le"d, q
feeling Of indignation at the dabollcal atroci-
ties to which these uuoffending and helpless
men, women and children have been subjected.
When kindly pity takes possession OF the
human heart, all lower feelings are compelled
to give it place. The fact is credtable to our
common nature. We cannot, unless we are
ourselyes british, bear to see a brute NAL
treated. In spite of the theories OF tho
ethnologsts and the sophstries Of tempo
rizers, every person Of ordinary intelligence
will admit, and does admit, at least in his prl'
yate thought, the moral equality Of all men.
The te1tual distortions and genealogical dis
ouisitions of babblers and of scribblers. never
cheat one sound and kindly heart. The honor
able citizen, of New-York, the men Of capital
and of culture. the women Of truly womanly
instincts, see only brutality and bestial cruelty
in the insane onslaught made upon an unfortun'
ate class. When men are murdered; when
the retreat of the fatherless is sacked; when
happy, humble homes are invaded, and thefruits
of industry and economy scattered or burned
in the burst Of passionate Indignation which
surely follows, Genesis is forgotten, skin theo'
res and shin theories are left in allegiance, and
with a blush upon the cheek, and hot hatred
of meanness in the heart men hasten to offer
sympathy and relief to the victims Of rufianly
violence. /. has been so in this city.
The promoters Of the late riots, who out
of sheer hatred Of the negro. let loose
their dogs to tear and to devOur, may
now have the satisfaction Of seeing all
the resources Of private charity employed to
assuage the wounds 80 ruthessly inflicted. and
TO compensate for the losses 80 undeservedly
incurred. The subscriptions already made in
behalf of the suffering blacks are extremely
| liberal Honest men feel that the fair name
and fame of the city are at stake, and that
its character for common humanity must be
vindicated. If those whisky -codden rcformers
who were for eIterminating BY fire and sword
the colorcd people of Ncw-lork can read at
all, which is very doubtful, we advise them to
study the record of the charitable subscription
now in progress, While they are skulking IN
corners, in constant apprehension of arrest
