derstood that President Lincoln will probably
extend his amnesty to the col0nels Of rebel re-
giments, from this consideration, among others,
that il we offer the pardon involved to the
colonel of rebel regiment we may get the
whole regiment, officers and all, where now we
only get few scores of struggling deserters.
come over. Nay, more: as an occasional rebel
general is beginning to drop in at venture,
why not extend the pardon to all rebel generals
who will within given time return to the old
flag. As there is now fair prospect Of demol-
ishing the rebel armies in this way, why not
try this extension Of the amnesty as an ex-
pertinent of strategy?

slow coach newspaper contemporaries appear to
be astonished at the decided ground taken by
the HERALD in favor Of an amendment Of tho

is progressive journal Of the present day,
and not an organ of the dead past. 1t has no
time TO waste upon dead institutions, dead is

things, living men. living questions and the on
