We have in cur midst men who, whilst
acguiescing in the abolition Of slavery, and
admitting that they do not expect the insti-
tuition to be revived again, are opposed TO
all measures to elevate the freedmen. sThe
negroes are free, let them remain so. We
will have nothing further to do with them
will give them no employment-would be
glad TO see the last one of them driven from
the soil" Thus these men talk. They
have not yet overcome the prejudices, pride
and arrogance, which shareholders have
slways felt. By. and-bye, we hope they will
be IN better frame of mind, and prepared
to do justice to themselves and 10 the hum
bier race Of people whose services were 50
long given without reward to enrich the
owners and develop the resources of the
South. The negroes were freed bv no
act Of their own. They had toiled in
all humility, were docile and kind,
snd j. was the boast of Southern lead -
ers that their affections could always be
relied upon. Il was claimed, indeed, that
there was q sort Of holy reverence for the
master on the part of the slave, and in re-
turn sincere respect for him, with desire
to aford him protection, and to render him
comparatively happy. But, in an evil hour
theslaveholdeTs rebelled against the Govern
ment-fOreed the nation into an exhausting
and bloody war-oGe Of the results Of which
was the emancipation Of the slaves. The
Shareholders are themselves responsible for
this. i is their own work. They would
have il 50. Aud now, instead Of hating the
freedmen, and wishing them i'll fortune, tits
their duty to give them emp oymsnt, and aid
them, BY every means in their power, to get
knowledge of every character-to make
them worthy and an honor to the country
in which they reside. It is maBifestly the
interest Of classes OF society that the freed
men should become, as soon as possible, well
Informed aud cultivated-that they should
have the benefits Of churches, schools, and
every other means Of advancement in re-
lg.ous instruction and human knowledge.
The benefits would not be confined to them.

"AGArE," the Washington correspondent
of The Cincinnati Gazette, under date the 18th
inst, writes the following in relation to
Secretary STATIONS health:
3 The Secretary of War, by the way, is alb
sent from his post by the peremptory Or
ders of his physician. The wear and tear Of
the last two years have been too much, even
for his taurine organization and his friends
say he Is breaking down. AT any rate he
is seriously debilitated; and paroxysms Of
passion daily growing more and more fire.

The Great Freshet.

We trust we have the worst of the great
freshet. To-day's accounts are mainly of
the subsidence instead of the increase of the
Z floods, and the immense volume of water
that has poured over the country has found,
we may hope, sufficient outlets, and wrought
already mischief enough in its reckless
course to satisfy the most vindictive of the
incensed river-gods.
1t has been no partial or local overflow,
but from every mountain range and along
every channel the vast reservoirs which the
SHOWS of winter accumulated have torn a
violent way to the sea. The Ammonoosuc,
the Connecticut, the Hudson, the Mohawk,
the Genesee, the Susquehanna, the Allegha-
ny and MonOngahela, the Cumberland
wherever East or West great river flows
the same flood has prevailed and the same or
similar scenes of devastation are to be wit
messed. 1t is agreed the freshet is the great
est of the century.
Details of the destruction which thus
spreads over half continent were given
yesterday, and more will be found in other
columns this morning. But no description
is adequate, nor is 1t easy to take in at once
the accounts which from all quarters crowd
upon us. Yetthere is frightful monotony
in the dispatches. Travel is everywhere
interrupted, cities half, submerged, thous-
ands of miles Of fertile territory inundated,
railways under water, canals swept away,
telegraph lines broken down, great mills
and founderies and furnaces ruined, prop
erty of all kinds and of incalculable value
utterly destroyed or greatly damaged. And
of course many lives have been lost, and
there is all through the districts rayaged by
these freshets, an amount of suffering ap-
palling to contemplate. As railway and
telegraphic communication are resumed,
we shall learn specifically where the most
harm has been suffered and where reliet is
most urgently needed.-New York Tribune,

The Enquirer In Kentucky.
ICoPY.l


HEADQU'Rs DEPARTMENT OF KENTUCKY,l
LOUISVILLE, KY, March %, 1865.
General Orders, No. 14.]
All orders heretofore issued in this De-
partment excluding the circulation OF The
Cincinnati Enquirer, are hereby revoked.
BY command of Major General Palmer.
+. B. HARLAN,
Captain and A. A. G..
We congratulate the people of Kentucky
on the revocation of an order that insulted
their intelligence and patriotism; cast a
stigma on the Administration at Washing
ton; abused one of the fundamental princi-
pies in the creed of Republican govern
ment; and did the proprietors of The En-
quirer gross injustice. The order we pub
1ish above shows that Major General Palmer
has correct appreciation of the relations
between himself and the citizens of Ken
lucky. He is not afraid to trust the people
to do their own reading, nor alarmed lest
their morals shall be tainted, or their politic-
al ideas vitiated, by being left free to pur-
chase such newspaper literature as they
prefer. With people born to freedom,
and brought up under its influence liberal
views and liberal policy attach them to an
Administration, while restraint in what had
always been open and free to them gals and
irritates. We hope nothing may occur to
again separate the people of Kentucky and
The Enquirer Cincinnati Enquirer.

Not Long.

The Wdyne County Democrat thinks that
inasmuch as 'the present Administration
Legislature has already repealed the law
prohibiting negro voting in this State" sit
only remains for this negro worshiping
party to get lick at the word suhtte in the
Constitution, then our court houses and
Jury boxes will have the full benefit of the
services and odor ofthe long-heeled, crooked
shined, thick liped, fiat nosed, woody head
ed, sleek and shiny skined, noble American
citizen of African descent"
Let the people everywhere, at the April
election, vote the Administration candidates
into a minority, If they do not want the
condition of things brought about The Dem
ocrat predicts will be brought about in the
event of the continuance of the present
party In power.

SATURDAY MORNING, MARCH a5
GsoIuw TO MIA the ward Of DrnSt.

Administration candidates for Council
men In some of the Wards where draft is
threatened, endeavor to win to their sup
port Democratic voters upon the assertion
that u they shall be elected they ,oiu free The
Ward from The impending drqtt. How long
win voters suffer themselves to be imposed
upon by such deception? Who are the
men--what are their political antecedents
who 60 around glibly giving these assur-
ances to the end that they may secure an
election to such seemingly small offices p
Are they not for the most part, men who
in1S60 when advocating the election of Mr..
LINCOLN, derided Democrats because they
expressed fears, that If he were elected
Civil War would surely follow, and who
accepted and retailed as true the statement
Of the demagogical politicians in that
party, that BY no possibility could the
South be kicked into an attempted secession
from the Union? Are they not, for the
most part men who, on the occasion of eve
ry call for men, said that no further call
would be made9 Are they not, for the
most part, men who on the eve of every
election held since the commencement of
the Rebellion, have asserted that If they
only carried that election, such would
be its moral effect on the rebellion that it
would cause it to quickly stagger
to Its downfall? Are they not, for the most
part men who last Spring, when the Ohio
National Guards were sent into the service
for one hundred sdays, became echos for
Gov. BRoUGH's assertion, that within
that one hundred days the Rebellion
Would be completely crushed out? Are
they not, for the most part men who last
Fall told the people that ifthey would only |
vote for the reelection of Mr.. LINCOLN
there would not be another draft, for the
reason that the Rebels would read in that
result the hopelessness of their cause; and |
would, therefore, lay down their arms with
out further resistance; but that if MoCLEL-
Lam should be elected the War would be |
protracted indefinitely? These men have
given their sanction to measures that have |
caused the prolongation of the War
and rendered previous drafts and the
present draft necessary, and they are
now the advocates or supporters Of a
policy that will render drafts neces-
sary in the future. Is it wise-is it be-
coming men of sense-to put further conf
dence in these men who for over four years
have been nothing else than false guides
noliticallvp Shall we continue IN follow
them on the road to inevitable destruction?

After considerable delay, a speech has
been published in The Congressional Globe
purportiDg to be the speech of Vice Presi-
dent JOHNSON. The editor of The Ohio State
Journal, who heard Mr.. JOHNSON on Inaug-
uration day, testifies in the following para
graph that that is not the speech delivered
by him on that memorable day:

prepared for The Congressional Globe, which
It calls the speech Of Mr.. johnson on taking
the oath as Vice President, and as it doesn't

for marked censure of Mr.. johnson, it pro-
ceeds to lecture very roundly the journals
