Shall We arm the Negroes.

From the Lyuchburg Republican,
The proposition Is SO strange-so un-
constitu,ional-so directly in conflict with
all Cur former practices and teachings
so entirely subverslve of our social and
political institutions-and so completely
destructive of our liberties, that ss stand
completely appalled,. dambfounded a. its
promulgation. When Lincoln first arm
Cd the negroes against Us. We all remem-
Der what just indignation it excited
throughout the world, aud how revolving
il appeard 10 the minds of our people; nd
when insult was added to injury, by re-
quirirg US to exchange negroes for white
men, the base proposition was indignant.
iy rejected as worthy only such a brn.al
nature as Beast Buffers. To this day,
thousands of our soldiers, are languish-
lDg in Northern prisons, because neith-
er they nor we will consent to acknowl-
edge LincOln's negroes as their equals
But those jos. and refined sentiments Of
gentlemanly warfare, seem no longer to
be regarded by portion of the Southern
press, as matters of any consequence at
all, and theysuol only virtually declare
that Lincoln iU right. but that the South
should improve upon their example and
elevate the slave to full political and CIV
il equality with his mAsler! In short. it
is abolition. This is the naked PROPOSE
ton of these journals, when, stripped Of
all its deformi,y.
They propose that Congress shall con-
cripl two hundred and fifty thousand
slaves, arm, equip, and fight them in the
field. As an inducement for them TO be
faithful, il is proposedslhat, at The end Of
he war. they shall have their freedom
and live among Us. "Ehe, ,cODscripuon of
negroes" says the Enquirer, should be
accompanied with freedom and the priv
ilege of remaining in the States" This
IS ths monstrous proposition. The South
went to war to defeat the designs of the
aboliiiorists, and behold in the midst of
the war, We turn abolItionists ourselves /
We went TO war because the Federal
Congress was entirely meddiing in our
domestic institutions, with which we con-
tended they had nothing to do. and now
We prupose to end the war by asking the
Confederate Congress TO do precisely
what Lincoln proposes to do-free our
negroes and make them the equals of the
white man! We have already been
taught to believe that slaves are proper
ty, and under the exclusive control of the
States and the courts. The new doc
,rine te tchss US that Congress has a
right TO free our negroes and make them
the equals of their masters.
Now. we are free to say that if tie
South is to be abolitionized in the end,
it would have been farssbetter for US to
have been abolilionized in the beginning,
and that if such terrible calamity is to
befalls Us al alive indefnitly prefer that
Lincoln shall be the instrument OF our
disaster and degradation, than that we
ourselves should strike the cowardly and
suicidal blow. Lincoln steals our ne
grOes and burdens his people with keep
ing them; the Enquirer proposes TO free
our negroes and make them perpetual
burden 10 the coRfederaey, standing IN
suit TO the manhood of our people.

as did young Green. Afterpassing through
the untold horrors of five months at Ander-
sonville. it seems particularly hard to die
when almost home, as so many of our pris-
oners have. The long list of names which
we print on second page will be read with
melancholy interest.

Our Fire Department,

1t does not need more than one such Oc-
caSiOn as the fire that happened in this vii
lagp last week Oh "Wednesday to demon
strate the value of well organized eff
Gent fire department. For the past ten
years there has been as good an organiza-
ton here probably. as in any town OF the
size in our State No one can tell how
much property our fire companies have
saved during these years. which without
such organization would have been burned !:
doubtless the amount could be counted by
| thousands of dollars. These fire compalI-
les have been kept up mainly By men who
voluntarily enlisted for self-protection.-
Their compensation has been chiefly a feel
ing OF security for themselves and their
neiglibOrs. Besides this they have had
their poll tax abated. amounting to about
- year. This pittance The town saw fit
to deprive them of by & vote within the last
few months. A more unjust and suicidal
act will not probably be committed by the
town again very soon. The effect has been
the DISCRIMINATION of one company ant
the threatened disbandng OF the others
The best thing the town can do is to restore
the paltrv sum allowed them. and the soon
err this is done the better.

Brief Locals.

We understand the Methodist Sabbath
school are also to have festival ant
tree" Christmas evening.
Most of the men who were burned Ou
last week are going to work again. Messrs
Colby q Gay have moved into Mr.. Pad
docks shop As a temporary arrangement
and Mr.. Morris will probably occupy one o
Mr.. paddock's rooms.
The present term of Court is drawing
to close the second week Of its session.
The war evidently draws off many quar-
relsOmc characters, thus shortening the
terms quite Sensibly.
THE CALEDONIAN would not be COM
plcte this week without a weather item.
From mild. October weather. and mud
knee-decp. the weather has changed the
past week to cold and from cold to snow.
and from snow to cold again. This week
We have very good sleighing and the mer-
cnrv from 10 to II degrees below o'mOrn-
inr>. Those who have wood to draw had
better improve this snow to haul it into
town. "a the present freezing prices will
seriously decline as soon as there is more
snow and more wood in the market.
- There will be two military companies
organized in this town Saturday the 18th.
