diate neighborhood Of Richmond. But the
strongest objection to any such scheme has
just been developed 10 General Sherman's
campaign through the State Of Georgia. He
brought off with him some ten thousand able
bodied slaves, voluntary and rejoicing follow
ers. He turned back, for lack Of transporta-
ton and subsistence, some thirty or forty thou
sand slaves anxious to follow bin TO the end
of his journey. Had he tried 1t, by simply in

The Southern Shareholders know ell this. They
know that Lincoln has the inside track on
emancipation against Davis, and that the
negroes have taken their position upon this
question.
Even in Richmond they appear to have no
especial liking lot inc military service OF
Davis. The Senfinel-Jeff.s rebel organ
says % regular panic and stampede has
taken place among the negroes Of the city;"
that considerable gangs Of them have been
running away, carrying their household goods
along with them, and that "the cause of the
stampede is the report that has gotten abroad
that all the male negroes are to be put into the
army" This stampede shows that If the negro
can at once obtain his liberty by running of,
he is not going to remain and fight upon mere
promise OF bis freedom at the end Of the war.

The New York REBEL PREss.-We notice
that the rebel press Of New York comedies
with the rebel press Of Richmond in declaring
that the victorious march Of Sherman, the de-
feat Of Hood and the capture Of Savannah do
not amount to anything. Indeed, the rebel
press goes further, and agrees with jeff. Davis
that even if we take Wilmington and Richmond
the rebellion will be, if anything, stronger
than ever We shall certainly try the expert
ment and see how it results. Perhaps the rebel
press may be right, and the rebels will become
more powerful the oftener they are whipped
and the more cities they lose but it is our
candid opinion that when the last rebel seaport
is captured, and the rebel capital In our posses
sion, there will not be enough left Of the rebel
lion for JEFF. Davis to pack in his black valise
when he runs away. We shall soon see which
isright-the HERALD or the rebel press.

THE DISTINGUISHED DEAD.-lt is q popularity
OF this world that there are epidemics Of every
thing. We have had epidemics of disease, cpl
denies Of fires and epidemics Of crimes, and
now we are having an epidemic Of distinguished
deaths. II began with the news Of the sudden
decease OF Minister Dayton at Paris, and
many artists, authors, astronomers, actors,
lawyers, diplomats and other remarkable men
have been numbered among its victims during
the past few weeks. 1t is not little singular
that most OF these victims died or apoplexy,
paralysis or heart disease, which are but diff
ferent forms OF the same complaint.
