THE scsLEswgG-1sOLsT QUEs.
TLJN.

For more than SIX months the S,hloswe-
Holsiein question has been keeping Europe in
suspense, and it Is SIN doubtful, whether per-
mancnt solution viii soon be found for it. The
English press continue TO blus.er aud to predict
a new war, in which England viii fight on the
side OF Denmark; yet wlocye. tales the Trouble
to look more at the facts than al comments OF
the English papers, canno, fail 70 see TIA. the
protracted negotiations between the European
Powers have been by no means useless. Ga.
important points Of agreement have been
reached, and that the object Of Ito dispute Aas
been greatly narrowed.
When the war FIRST broke out, We pointed out
what appeared 20 US TO be the Only possible
solution Of the question. Whatever may be- the
rights Of each Of 80 bclligerent Iartics-anl Oh
this point The most eminent jurists Of Europe
have been and are Of different opiniols--it has
not bcs denied by any iair-minded observer,
that the people Of Holsteiu and Of number OF
districts in South Schlcswig are unanimous in
demanding a separation from Denmark, and
that lie people Of Germany whether living
under on ab olute or constitutional monarch or
inarepublic, viii never cease TO aid tho people Of
the two duchios In tic realization of their
national aspirations. There was, therefore, We
contoudej, in Che Danish question as in that Of
Italy, only one effective solution possible;
namely, 70 ascertain the extent Of the Danish
aud Of the German predictions among the
people Of Schieswig, and to base all propositions
to be made to the bolligeent Powers concerning
peace, upon the geographical frontier Of each
nationality. If such an agreement could once
be arrived at, and the line Of separation fixed, 50
as to leave tho Danish-miuded with Denmark,
and the Gcmn-minded with Germany, there
would never be cause for new hostilities.
For long time it appeared as if this view Of
the case was not likely to find many friends
among the European Governments. The
majority Of the people Of the two Duchies
insisted that their country had never been a
sovereign laws the Prince Of Augustcnburg was
the successor of the late King Frederic VII, as
Duke Of Schlcswig and Holstcn. They were
unwilling to yield an inch of soil to Denmark.
They were supported in this by a number of the
German Governments and an overwhelming
majority Of the German people. The Govern
ments Of Austria and Prussia were for long
time willing to return both Duchies TO the King
of Denmark, if he was willing to give guarantees
that iSchleswig should not be Incorporated with
Denmark but remain indvisibly united with
Holstcin. If Denmark had consented to this
Of sO-caled personal union" the
protest Of the Diets Of the DuchieS would have

NO COMBINATION.

II is settled there is to be no Communication.
The House yesterday passed the bill OF Mr..
Smithers Of Delaware, which provides sub
stantially:
That the President may at any time call tor
any number OF volunteers for one two, or three
years.
That in case the quota of any town shall not
be filed within sixty days after the call. the
President may order a draft for one year to fill
that quota
That in case of n .draft there shall be no cx-
emption by the payment Of money.
Bountics are offered for volunteers or substi-
tutes-S20O for one year, $500 for two years.
500 for three years
So much we collect from the imperfect telc-
graphic summary. The essential feature of the
bill is of course the repeal Of the exemption
clausc-or, rather, that is the point on which
most of the controversy turned. The Senate
passed Till recently for the achievement OF the
same object, but the House has thrice refused
to accede, voting the other day by 100 to 80 IN
favor of retaining the Communication. Now that
the two branches are recOncilcd on this vital
question, we presume they will speedily be at
accord on matters of detail, and that one or The
ou,er bill viii he a law.
1t is no secret that the change of front in the
House il due TO the urgent representations oil
the Executive. The system heretofore existing
was deemed failure The Government got
money and not men. Hence the argument adj
dressed TO members Of Congress has been: Ii
you mean the war shall 90 on, you must grant
the power to draft compulsorily-in other words,
you must give the Government the power TO fill
It's armies speedily, and to keep them iuli. And
tie House has yielded to this urgency, impelled
by the patriotic conviction that the Executive
was entitled 20 the grant Of such authority a.
in Its view was necessary for the suppression OF
the Rebellion.
Heretofore it was believed that wise admin
s,ration Of the law would secure all the men
needed; but we now have the assurance Of the
military authorities that it was insufficient, and
since the Executive requires the power Of abso-
iNAf Altlt ~ W id+4tNhs Ht Ai4N i''''
and ali the men needed 10 crush the Rebellion
must be had somehow, all loyal men have
always insisted The question Of means IS less
essential
Il is, of course. understood that The power
which il now put into the hands OF The Govern
ment Is to be eneclually used. The law is 10
be put in force, and there Is 10 longer any
excuse, if there ever were, for msapprehension
on the par, Of the people or indecsion on the
part Of the Government. The Nation, by the
voice OF its representatives offers its whole
strength TO the Executive. What il asks in
return is that it, magnificent gin shall not have
been given in vain.
The bill Incorporates a provision for allowing
the loyal Statos 10 recruit IN the rebelliols
States; measure which has once passed the
House and been put to sleep in the Senate. The
House will probably now demand that DO shall
be made "A law

To those who believe that Slavery is dead.
and that no further efforts are required for It's
total extirpa,ion, We commend 4 consideration
of tLo following incident which recently took
place in Delaware:
The Rev. Thomas ". Kinnard, Of the British
Methods Episcopal Church Of Canada, and a
delegate from Canada TO the General Confer
cnca Of the African Methodist Episcopal Church,
which this year held IFS quadrcnnial session in
Philadelphia, visited bis birthplace in Della

chased by a brother of Tho man who bad eman-
cipated him some years ago. This man took
Mr.. Kmnarls due Bill for the amount he paid,
and gave $50 security that Mr.. Kiuuard would
leave the State in five days.
M KnnarJ Immediately went to Washing
ton to seek redress, bringing with him tran
script from the record of legal proceedings, duly
certified, and copies Of due bills, &c. also let
ters to the representative Of Delaware in the
House.
Being British subject, and having proyiu-
ca papers TO show that he was under tho
Queens protection, he naturally made The facts
in the case knowp to Lord Lyons, the British
Minister at Washington, who assured him that
satisfaction should be sought.
