Justice Slow but Sure.


Congress has at last done noble act.
They have placed the colored soldiers
on the same footing as the white in re-
gard to pay. &c. Here it is:
All persons Of color who have been or
may be mustered into the military ser
vice Of the United States shall receive
the same uniform, clothing, arms, equip
ments, camp equipage, rations. medical
and hospital attendance, pay and emola-
ments other than bounty, as other SOL
diers in the regular or volunteer forces
of the United States, Of the like arm of
the service, from and after January LIST,
1864 and every person of color who
shall hereafter be mustered into the SER
vice shall receive the same amount of
bounty as the President shall order in
the different States or parts of States,
not exceeding 800. Any colored per-
son enlisted and mustered into the ser
vice as volunteer under the call Of Oc-
tober 7th. 1868, for 100000 men, who
was at the time of enlistment enrolled
and subject to draft in the State in which
he volunteered, shall receive from the
United States the same amount of boun-
ty as paid to white soldiers under the
said call, not exceeding in any case
800.

Late News.

Advices from all parts of the country
show great activity in the army preparing
for the spring campaign.
There is but little fighting, with the ex-
ception of the Shreveport affair, which we
are inclined to think is as near a drawn
thing as may be.
GRANT is very active, and when the
time comes to strike, there will be a union
of effort in all parts of the army, and our
cause being just, who can for moment,
doubt the issue of the impending strugge.
There is but little else than rumors
of movements of troops in both armies-in
fact a general getting ready on both sides
The veterans are all returning to duty
again, which, with the general movement
of troops, is taxing the different means
of transportation to it's utmost extent.
Four hundred more prisoners have
been released. In fact we believe arrange.
ments for a general exchange have been
entered into.

The Hundred Day Men.

Gov. LEWIS returned to Madison from
Washington on Saturday, after an alb
sence of four weeks.
He did not join in the request of the
border state Governors to furnish volun-
teers for one hundred days, but promis-
ed them, and promised the President,
that he would encourage the enlistment
Of such volunteers in this State. With
out designating any specific number who
would 60, he expressed the opinion that
troops of that kind could be readily rails
ed here If needed.
Gov. L. will probably issue procla-
nation on the subject in the course Of a
few days.

The States Quota.

Gov. Lewis, while on his late visit to
Washington succeeded in settling the dis
crepancy in the quota of the State. BY
this settlement the State gets credit for s.
S4S men enlisted and mustered into the SER
vice previous to January LIST, 1864. This
leaves the State, up to April goth last, but
1893 men to raise to clear the state of draft.
This includes the re-enlistment of all
veteran troops. This we consider healthy
and patriotic state of affairs of which all
may we'll feel proud. And we think, with
the enlistments still going or in oil parts Of
the State, will certainly clear us Of the
present draft which has been hanging over
our heads for the past two months.

Letter from President Lincoln

Another of Mr.. Lincoln's letters has
just appeared, and is worthy compan-
ion piece with those that have proceed
ed it. 1t is published in the Frankfort
(Ky.) Commonwealth, and relates to his
countermanding the orders of Generals
Fremont and Hunter emancipating slaves
and his subsequent proclamation of
emancipation, and order for the organi-
cation of colored regiments. The cir
cumstance eliciting the letter were as
follows:
Gov. Bramlette and number of Ken
lucky gentlemen visited the President
recently, in regard to military matters
in Kentucky. AT the close of the in
tsryiew the President said that he was

Murder of White Union Prisoners

A late dispatch from Chattanooga in
speaking of the capture of number
of pickets belonging to the 92d Illinois
Regiment, says that the rebels brutally
murdered them because they could not keep
pace with them in retreating. Ri. O'Conner
was murdered by rebel officer after he had
surrendered. Private Springer, after being
double-quicked for three-quarters of mile,
was shot through the lungs because unable
to keep pace with the rebel cavalry. Private
Reynolds was shot through the bowels and
stripped of his pants. Seven of our men
were killed or wounded after surrendering
ss'prisoners ofwar..
They are also said to have murdered
numbers of the brave men at Plymouth, N.
c., after surrender, white as well as colored
soldiers.
The rebel soIdiery that could commit the
horrid brutalities of Fort Pillow on defence
less men of color and their officers, would
soon not scruple to 60 further, and murder
white men-soldiers-after they have laid
down their arms and become prisoners
of war. These are not the first, or only
instances of rebel barbarity, and bad
faith to prisoners of war. But it was the
last hair that broke the cameps back, and
now we may hope soon to see vengence
dire and terrible fall upon their own heads.
The President has said it, and we may
confidently look forward to the day when
settlement of these things will be had,
and woe unto the rebels in that settlement,
for towards men who have exhibited such
savage barbarity as these southern rebels
have recently been guilty of, true Ameri-
can patriots will have no feelings of either
charity or mercy. The only answer will be
the Texan war cry when she gained her
independence of Mexico after the massacres
of Goliad and the acknowledgements

THE ARCTIC PRISON,

THE ship swung heavily to and fro,
the long yards ercckiug and shirOriug
upon the masts.
The wind vhistled with shrill, weird
tound among the shrouds, and the shrouds
bent inwards, as though unseen bands of
heavy-footed men we're ascending them,
1t was a dark night, yet not so dark but
that we could see the lofty icebergs by
which we we're surrounded, looming uP
like sepectres through the gloom. We
we're tossing about on the waters of the
Arctic Ocean, and subjected to a heavy
sea and gale of wind, our position was a
dangerous one. We had already begun
to prepare RATS, and to hoist our chests
on deck, expecting every moment that
the ship would be stove by the ice Heavy
masses were continually crushing against
the bows, and laundering under the coun-
ter, causing the vessel to shake and quiv-
er from stem to stern, as though every
timber was about to give way. At times
the coneussion would be so violent that
all hands would be thrown off their feet,
and tumble on. top of each other, in a
manner that was far from agreeable. Sud
denly a white face, with wild glaring eyes
and quivering lips, appeared among US.
1t was that of the captains wife, She
had her hand upon her husband S arm as
he stood near the bow.
Lillian! Lilianl' she gasped, where
is our Lilian?'
Lillian? Good heayensl wife, what
do you mean? Ileft her with you in the
cabinp
She is not there now have looked
in all the rooms. Oh, God my child!
my child!' and the mother wrung her
hands in anguish, while her white face
grew still winter.
wife! wife, exclaimed the captain,
half sterDly, Lillian was with you when
I left the cabin; surely you did not let
her leave your side at such time as
this
'Yesr yssr cried the wife in accents
of the most piercing grief. II is all my
