What will be the status Of slavery in the
rebellious States after our arms shall have re-
stored those States to the Union? This seems
to be regarded as an open question by some of
our cotemporories. We hold that, by the
Emancipation Proclamation, slavery was and
is extinguished within every State and part Of
State included in that charter of liberty. The
faith Of the nation is pledged, and the compact
is sealed by the blood Of thousands Of the best
and noblest Of the land. There is no policy or
power which can again rivet the shackles Of
slavery upon those made free by that proclama,
ton; and to us it appears strange indeed that
there should be question among loyal citizens
upon this point. Mr.. Lincoln, in one Of his
letters, used these words: MY paramount OBJ
ject in this struggle is to save the Union, and
not to save or destroy slavery" but he also
gives the assurance that il to save the Union
slavery must be destroyed, then be would de-
stroy slavery. This is the true doctrine, and
we hold, in common with the great mass Of the
loyal citizens throughout the nation, that the
best and surest way TO restore and perpetuate
the Union is at once and forever to rid our
country Of the greatest political and social
curse that could have been interviewer with
its institutions. While we agree that tho par.
amount object Of the war should be the saving
Of the Union, yet, whsn the rebellion is crushed,
should slavery be allowed to blight any portion
Of our land. We should regard our victory as
barren indeed, and dearly purchased.
In times past, for the sake Of union and
peace, compromises have been made with the
slave power; but the day Of compromise with
that power has passed. In their mad lust for
power, the rebelliOus slave owners have at
tempted to rend asunder the Union cementsd
BY the UloOd Of the Revolutionary fathers, and
to proclaim upon its ruins despotism "whosi
cornerstone should be human slavery" Lei
US tear out that stone, and the whole super
structure will tumble to pieces. . .. -.'-.

THE LOYAL QUAKERs.

No more striking example can be given oi
the enthusiasm Of the Northern people, Of all
sects and creeds, than is afforded in the warliks
spirit manifested by the Quakers Of Pcnnsyl
vania. A late Eastern paper furnishes the
following account Of o recent gathering O
Friends, and the result of motion designed
to censurs those Of the persuasion who had
departed from the faith Of their fathers by
taking up arms in defence Of their country.
CopperhCads should blush while reading it,
IL they are not dead to all sense Of shame:
Non.resistahce is one Of the principal char
acteristics Of the religious system maintained
by the Quakers. But In such times as these,
theory is one thing and the instinct Of patriot.
ism another, and the latter has frequently
shown itself stronger than the former, oven
among the staid followers Of William Penn.
This fact was strikingly illustrated at the
regular meeting Of the Friends, lately held in
Philadelphia. A worthy member o! the So
ciety arose, and called attention 10 the fact that
. large number Of young Friends had fallen
away from the faith Of their fathers, and on.
listed In the army Of the Government, accom-,
panied with the blessing Of their mothers, and
the tears Of their sisters, aud other near rel
atives. He then made motion, which was
carried, that q committee be appointed to in.
quire into the matter. The President under.
took 10 announce the names Of the persons
whom ho had selected 70 constitute the com.
mittee. The name Of the first person was
mentioned, who, alter painful silence, arose
and said; % Friends, beg leave to be excused
from serving on this committee: could not
