EDWARD EVERETT took very advanced
ground upon the subject of the Proclamation
of emancipation in his Faneuil Hall speech.
He said: sasza
II is uery doubtful, achetaer any act of the
Government of the United States aUGs neces-
sdiy to kberGte the slaues in State sohich is
in rebellion. There is much reason for the
opinion, that, By the simple act Of leuying ,uar
against the United States. the relation Of
Slavery tcas terminated, certainly so far as
concerns the duty of the United States to re-
cognize 1t, or to refrain from interfering with
It, Not being founded on the law of nature,
and resting solely on positive local law, and
that not OF the United States, as soon as it
becomes either the motive or pretext of an un-
just war against the Union; an efficient in
strument in the hands of the rebels for carry
ing on the war; source of military strength
to the rebellion and of danger to the govern
ment at home and abroad, with the additional
certainty that, in any event but its abandon
ment, it will continue In all future time to
work these mischiefs, who can suppose it 10
the duty of the United States to continue to
recognize it? To maintain this would be
contradiction in terms. It would be to re-
cognize right Ia rebel master to employ
his slave In acts of rebellion and treason, and
the duty of the slave to aid and abet his mas
ter In the commission Of the greatest crime
known to the law. No such a6surdity can be
admitted, and no citizen of the United States
from the President down, who should, BY any
overt act, recognize the duty of O slave to
obey rebel master In q hostile operation,
would himself be giving aid and comfort to
the enemy.

reports all the country in the vicinity of Little

protection in every. part for small bodies OF
Indians to torment emigrant trains, and there
lis certainly no safety in travelling over it until
the Indians are exterminated. The Santees,
on the Mouse river, are almost starving, and
want to give themselves up.
