rha Negro etition

We have the best authority for stating
that petition was started some days ago
in this city, asking the President TO put
a stop TO negro enlistments in this State.
We hope the movement is not knocked
in the head by the recent elections. By
all means let it circulate. Let il be pos
ted up on every street corner. The thing
ought to be looked at. II must be a Gu
riosity. Can't its originators get up a
public meeting, and pass some telling
resolutions about it? BY the way, here
is what The Union Gubernatorial Conven-
ton of Delaware resolved the other day :
ReSolVed, That zoe GpprOve The policy Of
Emancipation, and tie employment of oOLored
troops, as depriving our rebel enemies of
= most powerful auxiliary, and as afford
ing TO ourselves material assistance by
the enlistment of species of force whose
bravery and good conduct have been
tested, and who will save our own race,
not only from the perils of the battle
field, but the more deadly malaria of a
Southern cline. That if from this cause
the slaves of Rebels shall be set free, il
will be justly attributable only to the
evil counsels of bad men, who have in
duced their masters to take up arms
against the Government and have COM
pelled it to war against slavery in lis
own defence.

How they Keep the Oath

MEMPHIs, Oct. l3.--Many of the reb-
els who were in the fight at Colliersville
had taken the oath of allegiance, and
had passes in their possession which
they had obtained to go through the lines
for alleged loyal purposes. This perfidy
will bring upon the country people terri
BILE retribution, and stop the little inter-
course and trade that have been permit
ted TO the Inhabitants.
SO says the telegraphic report, which
is in accordance with multitudes of other
accounts from all portions OF the South
where our armies have gone. Strange TO
say, newspapers pretending to be loyal
insist in the face of these facts, that
rebels who have taken the oath, shall be
allowed TO act with loyal men at the
ballot-b box in restoring our State govern
ment. The idea is revolving to common
sense.

Both Davis and Sheridan, Of MCCook's

Both Davis and Sheridan, Of McCook's
corps, are men of fine military expert
ence and inilexible bravery-,a fact in
controvertibly attested upon many an
ensanguined field of blood. What their
divisions did or did not do, know not,
but no division of the Army of the
Cumberland did better execution, fought
more valiAntly, held its ground against
superior numbers more unflinohingly,
or gave to American courage more last
ing renown, than JohnsOn's (2d) division
of McCOOk's corps, on that bloody Geld
Of Georgia, where so many yielded up
their souls to God, and Redeemed with a
crimson tide the CORY banks of the Chick
Amauga.
George IL. Thomas fame, as q brave
and skillful General, as one prudent in
counsel and courageous in action, needs
no encomiums from me OF any one else.
He has been tried on many battle. fields,
and not found wanting; we were under
him at the late battles. Neither does il
need detraction from other corps COM
manders' merits TO make his many vlr-
tues shine the brighter. Let "Mr. Shanks'
bear this in mind, but never let him come
in close range of any of the Govern
ments thick. soled CATERS, worn by any
of the I'd division of the goth army

Freedom and Nationality
An old Union soldier Murdered by
wheeIer's Cavalry.

Some months since an old citizen Of
Bedford county, sixty.flve years Of age
residing six miles from Shelbyville, be-
ing robbed and left destitude by the
rebels, escaped TO this city and enlisted in
Col. Gillem's First Middle Tennessee regi-
ment, of which two of bis sons were
members. The old man WAS accepted by
Col. Gillem more from feelings of hu.
manity, and to furnish him food and shell
ter, than for any other reason. Still be
was faithful acting punctusl to his duties,
and his universally jovial disposition,
and jokes made him auniversal favorite in
the regiment. He never faltered. On
one of the marches of last winter, in the
worst weather, his step was as light and
brisk as that of the youngest soldier
although his long thin locks were almost
as white as the snow drifts through
which he waded.
A few weeks ago, Col. Gillem honorsbly
discharged the old man that he might
go to his home. Yesterday he heard The
sad news that party Of Wheeler's cav
airy, about the time of the Pennington
fight, wentto the old mans house, took
him out and hung him to tree! Th'
hellish deed is done, and the soul of th,
veteran soldier of the First Middle Ten
nessee is in the bright land reserved fol
the spirits of martyred patriots. But q
thousand of his surviving comrades have
sworn vengeance for his murder.

Within eighteen months an increased
numerical difference of population to the
amount of 100000, has taken place be-
tween the free and the slave States. The
former have received 250,OO0 foreign inn
migrants, and the latter have lost over
100000 soldiers. This difference amounts
to more than the white population of
South CArolins, OF Alabama of Missis-
sippi, of Louisiana, of Florida, and of
Arkansas. 1t is difference which must
utterly appal every traitor who cOnsid-
ers il for one moment. Let the loyal take
courage, and rebels despair.
