ABoLIsHNo SLAVERY By CONGRESSIONAL
EsAcrxESr.-This is more ridiculous than full
minating bull against the comet; and yet men
in Congress are found ignorant enough to sup.
pose that slavery can be SO abolished. Slavery
can be legally abolished in no such manner.
The only legal way to abolish slavery il to
amend the constitution, as we long ago pro-
posed-a method which will meet the issue and
settle Il forever. The Stale legislatures are
the frst tribunals before which the subject can
be properly brought; and the Legislatures Of
the States OF New York, New Jersey, Ohio, In
diana, Maryland, Missouri and Massachusetts,
are now In session. Why do not the antl-slavery
men In these bodies 60 TO work and adopt the
required constitutional amendment II they want
slavery abolished in legal wsyi Al for the
bill introduced In the House Of Representative
by Mr.. Arnold, Of Illinois, sbolIshing slavery,
IL Is not worth the ink with which Il was writ
ten, and the suthor oft must bear o striking
resemblance 10 the animal which Absalom rode
when hs was hung by the hair, n he ever
imagined such stupid piece Of Legislation
would ever nnd permanent place upon the
national record.

SLAVERY AMONG THE GREEKS AND romans
Poor Greeley is still harping on this string. He
Is so ignorant of history as not to see the differ
ence between slavery in Greece aud Rome and
slavery here. He does not know that the Greek
their masters, while the modern slaves are AZ
ricans, distinguished from the white race by
their color and their physical and mental cha
racteristios. This makes all the difference in
the world to some people, but not to the advo-
Gates Of amalgamation, miscegenation and other

The WISDOM or CoN0REss IIIUsrRArED sr
HIsroRr.-General Grant is the government
practically and really. Nominaly two or
three bodies Of politicians In Washington are
still the government; but that government
was merely kind Of grub, the only purpose Of
whose existence was that 1t might gnaw and
bore and keep itself alive until 1t had matured
government better fitted to the present con-
dition Of the country. This 1t has done, and,
though 1t still remains the semblance Of .
government, 1t is q semblance only-an OK
uvium-a mere sbell-the vital power Is in the
new man. We are, and must be while this war
lasts, Q military people, and the life Of the ma
ton u In the army. He who is at the head of
the army Is therefore the man who Yields the
power Of the nation, and Ii the man above all
others with whom the country must stand or
fall. He is the government in q truer and
deeper sense than any man could become
such through forms Of appointment or oatbs Of
Office.
In the action by which Congress placed
General Grant In his present position it acted
up to the necessity of q great occasion, as
suned the initiative with events, and showed
greater wtdom than similar bodies usually ex-
bibit. Had the Roman Senate made q virtue
in the Same way Of what was an obvious
necessity, and made Cesar Consul-made him
formally, as he was really, the incarnation Of
the Roman power there would have been NO
civil war. Had the Directory seen Its oppor-
tunity and made Napoleon First Consul it
would have made the first step Of usurpatlon
infinitely more difficult than 1t was, and it is
not improbable that It would thereby have pre-
vented that devastation of Europe which ended
only when it had given new king to France.
Had the English Parliament been guided by
the practical genius Of Oliver Cromwell, that
great man would never have seized the
supreme power; Richard Cromwelrs name
would never have appeared in history; the
Restoration, by which England lost the greater
part Of the benefit of her struggle, would never
have taken place, and In all probability Eng
land would have had free government to-day.
Congress was "timely wise" under circum-
stances similar to those In which the Roman
Senate, the Directory and the English Parlia-
ment failed. 1t went with the current of
events-went with the people-and did what
was necessary to be done in grand way.
And, now that Grant is in the place OF power,
it is the country's duty to sustain him in it,
heart and soul. Around this great leader the
country must rally, with the last man and the
last dollar, to end the war at once; for if we
do not end it now we never can.
