LET IT BE RATlFIEp.

wal kHpNu 10 tne history VI lhc ClNlllhSu
world.
LET TT BE RATIFIED.
Slavery, secured to the people Of the
South more permanently by the Constitu-
ton of the United States and by the
laws cnated in pursuance thereof than
any species cf property claimed by them
not even excepting their lands will
now perish by the war which it brought
about to enlarge its power and perpetuate
its existence. Let us do our part in this
great work byratiiying the action of Con
gress, aud carrying out the wishes of our
people After the ratification by the peo-
pie of our State Of our Amended Consti-
tuition, embracing the same proposition,
and after your election to the General As
semhly on this platform, and by the same
people. | have not considered an elabor-
ate argument in favor of the proposition
submitted by Congress at all necessary.
may be allowed to say, however, that to
prohibit slavery in State requires change
in the State Constitution. Pregnant as
we find slavery to be of all sorts of polit-
ical mischief, it is not to be got rid of,
under the Constitution, in any other than
a constitutional manner And, while the
sooner this can be done the better, it does
not appear in what part of the Constitu-
tion of the United States the power of
regulating it at all, in times of peace, is
to be found. Fortunately for the future
happiness of the country, the Constltu
tion has provided a way in which the
people can rewedy the great evil, with
out any questionable exercise of power,
and that is by amending the Constitution
just as. Congress has. proposed.
Slavery was so far made the subject of
constitutional cognizance by the people OF
the United States, when they adopted the
Articles of Confederation that it found a
place in the compromises OF that instru
meut, both in fixin. the ration OF repre-
sentation and the apportionment Of direct
takes and also in requiring the people OF
free State TO surrender SO much of this
sovereignty as not to have the right to
protect the slave that sought refuge from
bondage-it would seem too late in the
day to question the right of the people to
adopt amendments to that instrument, in
regard TO this or other subjects embraced
in its provisions. 1t becomes us, there
fore. to approach this subject with an en-
Iightcned craftsmanship, and with de-
gree of moral courage that is not afarid
to do right, appealing to the ultimate
Judgment of mankind to vindicate our
action.
1t is in this way, and in no other, that
uniform rule can be provided, and an
end put thereby, in all time to come, to
a possibility OF revlvlng that which has
been the fatal cause of all the mischief
in the country. To insist upon exclu-
ding slavery from State, by amending
her Constitution, before recognizing her
again as within the pale Of the Union,
would look awkward, and fall below the
dignity Of political sagacity. Our State
has shown her hand aud placed herself
square upon the record; and | fatter
myself that her representatives here as
sembied are ready for measure which
shall forever exclude slavery from the
United States.

WASHINGTON, April 25.
Within the past two days a number
of officers and men Of Lees army who
were absent from their commands at the
time ofthe surrender, have come into our
lines and reported to the Provost Marshal
here, asking permission to be paroled.
To-day four officers OF the Virginia Par
tican Rangers crossed the river and came
TO Washington. They claimed this dis
trict as their home, and desired to be par.
oled the same as Lees men, but they
were committed to Old Capitol, and their
cases referred to the Secretary of War.
The rebel Guerrillas in Alexandria aud
Loudon counties, Virginia, have been
nearly all cleared out, aud considerable
numbers Of farmers, as far up as Wolf
Run Shoals, are putting in small crops
this season. This section of the country
bids fair to speedily produce more than
it has for the pasttour years
Paroled men Of the rebel army Of
Norther Virginia, who were allowed to.

Immediately, and sent South, it having
been decided that they cannot claim this
district as their place Of residence. Those
who return to their allegiance, however,
