when colored soldiers were captured
their owners could claim them. aud they
had Teen put al work on the Notifications.
He, General Lee, had, however, order
ed them to be Withdrawn from their ex-
posed position, and sent to the rear.
General Grant in reply, informed Gen.
Lee That these prisoners of war having
been removed from their exposed posi-

removed. He also informed him that he
had nothing to do with the discussion of
the slavery question, ard declined to

Further along in the same speech, he
Gays:
elf these Southern States cannot be re-
conciled, ard if you, gentlemen, canrot
find it in your hearts to grant their de-
mards !; If they must leave the family
mansion, / would signalize their depart
IRE by tokens Of love / would bid them

and if, in the viciesitudes of their separss

together again in cur common Govern
ment, there should be no pride to be hui
inflated, there should be no wound in
hicted from any hand to be healed. They
should come and be welcome 10 the place
they now occupy"
Since this speech was made the public
have received several assurances that his
principles have not been changed. These
are his sentiments to-day, and if elected
TO the Vice Presidency would use his
whole influence to accomplish the dis
memberment Of our country. MI. Pen
dleton has at least one virtue, and hat is
consistency. People know before they
vote for him that he is, in principle, a
rebel, and therefore are not deceived.

the following: The Richmond papers of
the oath contain the proceedings of a con-
vention held at Augusta, Georgia, be-
tween the Governors of Virginia, North
Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and
Mississippi, for consultation upon the
state of the Southern Confederacy;
The Governors first resolved hat there
was no cause 10 be discouraged, but it is
imperative to increase their armies i'm.
medlately.
Second. To recommend the Legisla-
ture to repeal all laws prohibiting the
sending Of troops outside of the State
limits.
Third. To urge the Confederate au-
thorities TO conscript every man en-
gagged in the various departments whose
place gan be supplied by disabled officers,
soldiers, senior reserves or negroes.
Fifth. To recommend Legislative en-
actmenIs for the arrest of deserters.
Sixth. To make it imperative that
negroes be removed from frontiers ex.
posed to the Union armies: that the
course Of the United States Government,
in appropriating slaves to purposes of
war demands change of policy on their
part. They recommend 10 the Confed-

part Of the negroes 10 the public service

Of Providence, r. l.. have contracted 10
furnish 81 600 bgeeck leaders, Of the

extensive alterations Of their works for
the purpose OF delivering them as soon

for excellent results. Although breech

terse telegraph reports Of correspondents,
wbo give regiments armed with breach
loading weapons the credit of REFUSING

of putting them to fight when acting on
the offensive.
This action on the part of The Cavern

in the war we should have been spared
many disasters.
The English Government has taken a
contrary course. Recognizing the eff

for proposals 10 alter the Enfield rife IN

be TO spoil both weapons-to ruin a good
