Weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1858-1865, 1864-11-23

We agree with the President that should the al
tentative ever be presented of subugation OF the
employment Of the slave as soldier, there seems
to be no reason to doubt what would then be our
declson.-,K ilnsington Journal.
In all candor it seems to US that the employment
of the slaves soldiers in any event, could be
eontsssion Of suyugatiom. The slave himself is
already ina state Of subjugation, as he should be.
If the free white men of the Southern. States can
not make good their separation from the old govern
ment then in vain would they rely on their slaves
as soldiers to effect this result
Weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1858-1865, 1864-11-23

lano, giving US seventeen Of the nineteen members
So far, we have in Illinois ten members sure and
one district is stf4h doubt This is gain Of five.
10 Michigan, we defeat Baldwin in the Fifth dis
trict-a gain of one for Us. In Wisconsin, we have
reported gain of two members Missouri will pro-
6sbly give Union gain oftwo members. So there
is no doubt Of two thirds vote for the Union and
Emancipation in the next House Of Represents
tives, and something over to spare-saying nothing
Of Tennessee and Louisiana, which may send up
about dozen Union members.
The President reiterates the disposition of the
government for peace, but thinksshat it would be
fully to attempt further negotiations unless invited
by the enemy. We do not entirely agree with the
President on this point. We think Commissioners
ought to be appointed and the Yankee government
frequently notified that we are ready to negotiate
for peace on the basis Of the independence Of the
Confederate States. Let the Commissioner names
be published to the world, and thus prevent all
further Misrepresentation or misconstruction Of the
views of our authorities ON this matter, This is in
accordance with views expressed by us more than a
year ago. Charlotte Democrat
Weekly standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1858-1865, 1864-11-23

The only papers, as far as we have observed, that
have endorsed Mr. Davs's proposition to detail Min
listers of the Gospel and Editors, and his proppsi
ton to call into service arty thousand negroes, are
the Confederate, Of this City, and the Salisbury
Watchman. We are not surprised at the course of
