would incline the rebels TO submit to the
United States rather than 10 England,
France or Maximillian Joining their
military forces they could sweep this
continent and thus hide thei.' shame,
while America will become the colossal
power of the world On the other hand,
some Richmond editors, in view of the
fact that they have lost all the seaports
of consequence, make great efforts TO
prove these disasters a blessing. They
saw war is now their sole business

forced, and every one than can must

From the Richmond Dispatch, Jan H.
Would to heaven the Congress of the

to enslave, or to extirpate the whole race,
of which we are part and parcel. Our
Congress is in session. Bills of
the most urgent necessity are be-
fore il. Bills vital to our constitu-
ton and our country. Bills upon the pas
sage of which depend our status of free
men or slaves, probably for centuries to
come Weare in the eighth week of the
session. The enemy is prosecuting his
enterprise throughout the winter. He
