Soldiers After the War.

Macaulay, in the portion of his history
relating TO the state OF English society at the
close Of the great Revolution, touches sub
ject curiously paralsled IN our own times. =
Speaking ofths fears that were then enter
tainsd as to tho result of disbsnding Crom-
wells army and throwing its unruly cle-
ments back into society, he says: .'@
The troops were nov to be disbanded. -
Fifty thousand men, accustomed to the pre-
fession of arms, were at once thrown on the
world, aud experience seemed TO warrant
the belief that this change would produce
misery aud crime--that the discharged vet
Grams would be seen begging in every street,
or would be driven by hunger to pillsge. -
But no such result followed. In few
months there remained not trace indica.
ting that the most formidable army in the
world bad just been absorbed into the, mass
Of the community. The royalists themselves
confessed that, in every department Of hon
est industry, the discarded soldiers prosper
ed beyond other men; that none was chars-
cd with any theft or robbery; thar none was
heard to ask an aims; and that. ifa baker, a
mason, or q wagner attracted notice by his

Addres, OF Inc Rebel Congress.

Address OF Inc Wehoh Congress.
The members Of the Rebel Congress have
framed, signed and published an address in
which are some things deserving special no
tice. This document is the highest svi-
dence yet given Of the objects of the rebels,
and of their grounds OF hope at this time.
In this address they say that their Govern
mont was based on the proper relations of
labor and capital" This is frank. Here
is no room left for cavil. They formed their
Government to establish and vindicate the
principle that, in the language Of Senator
Hunter "Capitsl should own labor" that
laborers should be slaves. This Is . reas-
sertion of what Alexander H. Stephens said,
that the corner stone Of the Rebel Govern.
ment was slavey-- differing only in words
They fight for independence, but If they
fail in that then they say lit is better to b
dependence Of any other power than" tn,
United States, noteven excepting Dahomey
And why should they, for there is Gov
crnment based on what they call "the pro
per relations Of labor aud capital" Their
the capital owns labor" There the laborer
are slaves. Their hope Of independence i
fed by "a powerful political party" in tn
North. MANY sagacious persons in tn
North" Brave and earnest men at th
North" They say the Administration "hai
= however, been able thus far" Ito overaw
the masses, to control the elections, and I
y establish an arbitrary despotism." The
think, "it cannot be possible that this stat
|. Of things can continue" They look to th
,s powerful political party" to those ''sagac
II Gus persons, and 'brave and earnest me
= at the North" to undeceive the masses
the North as to ''the proper relations Of ]
te Dor and capital" and thus obtain their i
y, dependence. Yes, when these sagaciou

this powerful political party" succeed

Q letter replying to communication charg.

treating rebel pris9ners at Johuson's Island.
Mr.. Brown says he has friend there who
corresponds with him regularly, and says
the imprisonment was as mild as he could
expect and he is in want Of nothing but
liberty. Mr.. Brown states his reason for
publishing the statement thus: "Hirst. i
would do justice to "a enemy; next, would
not oxasperate, by publishing exaggerated,
II not false. accounts fthe cruel treatment
Of our prisoners, and thus induce them to
change mild and even treatment into q

these accounts will meet the eye of many
