But this is not ths most hateful aspect
of this question. Justice and sound
policy" says The Enquirer. ''tiemand thai
We make freemen of those who fight for
freedom. This is the beast in all lis
frightful deformisy. Lincoln and Boiler
declare that the negroes who they make
fight for freedom, are entitled to il,
and therefore ireated and exchanged as
the equals of southern gentleman. If the
wild doctrines Of the Enquirer be sane
toned by our people or Government, then
President Davis cannot gainsay the prop
ositions of But er and Lincoln, and musi
consent TO the exchange of negroes fol
white men. But this is not all.
Ii 'those who fight fer freedom" are
entitled TO it then they are "entiIled" &C
II equally. If the negro IS made to 6ght
cur battles of "freedom" then be mus
be governed by the same laws of war
and be must stand upon the same footing
of the white man after the war. Whal
will be the consequence? Why, if 250.-
00G negro men are entitled to their free
dom because they fight FOR il, then their
wives, children and families are also en-
titled TO the came boon, Just as the wives
children and families Of the white men
who fight The same battle. In other
words, the South is TO be converted by
this war into an aboliiionized colony of
free negroes, instead of land Of white
freemen, knowing their rights and dar-
ing TO maintain them. If the negroes
are to be free, they must be equally
free with the master. IF they are 70 be
armed like the master. What is the re-
suit! Why, they never can be slaves
again, and must be treated as the mas
ter, politically, cIvilly and socially
Those who fight for freedom, says the
Enquirer, and we say so too If the
South are willing to make the shameful
confession tha, they have accepted a war
wLich they cannot fight to a successful
issue and they claim rights in slaves
which thev are incapable Of maintaining
by force of arms, then we say we leveled
10 the equality of our negroes.
There are other revolving aspects In
which this question presents itself to our
mind, but we have not space to discuss
them this morning. We shall revert to
this subject again, for we honestly be-
lieve that should such doctrines meet
with any considerable favor AZ the South
our cause is honestly lost, and the cOun-
Try not worth one drop of the precious
blood which has been shed in its behalf.
Instead of being a war for the freedom
of the white man, it will degenerate in-
to a struggle for the freedom and equal
ity of our slaves. If our people are not
capable of vindicatiug their ti,le 10 prop
eriy in Regroes. then they ought to qui-
etly surrender the question, stop the war,
abolish slavery and confess themselves
eternally dlsgraced.

The New Constitution Of MARYLAND

The Maryland Free Constitution makes
some very important changes IN The law Of
the Stale. Ii declares that ali men are Gre
ated equally free, and are entitled to the
enjoyment of the proceeds Of their own
labor; that hereafter there shall be neIher
slavery nor Involuntary serviIude, except
in punishment of crime, whereof the party
shall have been duly CONVICTED; and all
persons held to service or labor as slaves
are declared free. 1t prohibits the General
Assembly passing any law to compensate
masters or claimants Of slaves emanci-
pated by the Constitution. Lotteries are
forever abolished by the Constitution Il
afirms that the Constitution and Laws
Of the United States are the supreme law
of the land, 10 which every citizen of the
Stale owes paramount allegiance. The
Legislature Is 10 make provision for taking
the vote Of soldiers in the field An i'm.
porlant feature Of the Constitution Is that
which renders ineligible to Office and IN

restored TO citizenship BY a two-thirds,
vote Of the Legislature, all persons who
have aided the rebellion in any way, either

And bomb-shell tumbled in their smoky gyre,
And grape shot hissed, and case-shot screamed
Back from the front there came,
Weeping and sorely lame,
The merest child, the Youngest face
Man ever saw in such fearful place.
Sitting bis tears, he limped his chief to meet;
But when he paused. and tottsring TODD,
Around the circle of bis little feet
There spread pool Of bright, young blood.
Shocked at his dolefuI case,
Sherman cried, Halt front face!

Sherman aud what be Thinks or
Hood.

Major General William T. Sherman
is in the city, and communicating with
the Government. No man in America
is more cheerful or self possed. For the
generalship of Hood il is no secret that
he has the most inexpressi5le contempt.
Speaking of him to his general officers
one day, he remarked, with an emphasis
peculiar to himself.
Johnston being a sensible man, !
could generally divine his movements,
but as Hood Is not, / can tell nothing a.
all about Iheng''
"D-n him. if he will go to the Ohio
river I'll give him rations! The nearer
the rebels come to US, the easier II Will
be to kill them"
Las, week Hood was reported at De-
catur, Alabama, with his whole army.
Let him go north" said Sherman,
