THE REBEL CONGRESS ON ARMING SLAVES.
On the subject of arming the slaves, the

On the subject of arming the slaves, the
Rebel Congress has not acted wisely, in
our way of thinking. They do not free
them or put arms into their hands, nor in
any way attempt to compete with our gov
ernment in securing their affections and
gratitude. They acknowledge, that to at
tempt to do so would be futile as the me-
groes would rather fight for the Union, than
for the rebellion. The law authorizes the
rebel government to impress the blacks,
except that not more than one in five agri-
cultural or mechanical slaves of any one
owner shall be taken, to the total number
of thirty thousand east of the Mississippi,
and ten thousand west of that stream, to
be employed in menial labor, as cooks,
teamsters, walters, labOrers on fortiications,
&c. Ir the event of their loss their own
ers are to be paid their value Free ne
grOes are also liable to general Impress
ment for the same service In the debates
on the passage of this bill, DAVIS was de-
iiNuiiSS" III 'iio i'CbCl do 'tl dDO-
litionist, and the policy advocated by DAVIS
and LEE Of arming and freeing the slaves,
was condemned as suicidal to the South, and
one which would convert the Rebel States
into San Domingo. Thus the rebel govern
ment, and the rebel armies, are beaten in a
policy upon which they had bent their ut
most efforts, and which though desperate,
they have evidently regarded as the last
remedy for their desperate case They are
beaten. The Rebel Congress will not give
up slavery, to save even the confederate
cause, including the neck of their distin-
guished chief, JEFFERSON DAVIS. Perhaps
it is well it is So The fact is, the rebels
have now arrived at that point where to
stand still is to be crushed and to move in
either direction is to exhibit their weakness.
To free the slaves, and by them obtain in
dependence would convert the confederacy
into black repubic-a second San Domin-
go and yet, not to free the slaves, is to
leave their government without enough
men to maintain itself.

FROM CARLISLE.

CARLISLE, Feb. 14th 1865.
Mr. EDITOR Having just returned from City
Point, l thought description of the journey might
interest some of your readers. We started Febru-
ary the 9th, with one hundred and eight recruits
for the 45th p V. Arrived at Baltimore the 7th in
a very heavy snow storm Baltimore is a very busy
place; thousands of soldiers stop here for rest
from most of the Northern states. The Western
volunteer attracted my attention the most of any,
they were just from Sherman's army armed ready
for action at any moment Their old coffee cups
and smoky looking uniforms, told us plainly that
they had seen some rough places. They We're on
their way to Washington, joyful rs many school
boys. They were led bya veteran officer who made
a short speech to them, assuring them that they
were going to get their twelve months pay which
was due to them.
From Baltimore We took the transport George
Wemes for Fortress Monroe, passing Fort Federal
HILL Fort McHenry, with their huge guns overlook
ing the waters for miles. After cold ride of sew
eral hours we reached Fortress Monroe, where the
Peace Commissioners We're assembled. The most
or best peace moves that saw here, was a shop
where sabers, guns, &c, We're manufactured The
Fort which is being built on therp-raps, are splen-
did walls of stone, which will stand for ages.
At this place We only stayed few moments, but
long enough to loose twelve bounty jumpers from
our county, or representing some of our Bradford
men. They jumped off the boat while the guard
were busy seeing to some conscripts, to make them
comfortable A moment more and we were going
rapidly up the James river, which shows the effects
of war. The noted Florida still lies nearly under
water at Newport News, and the country joining
the river looks as if Massey had up and run
away"
The old jamestown, on James Island, was des-
olate place; the oldest church in the United States
with its adjoining grave yard, looks as if no one
had visited it for years The walls were perforated
with shell, and the rufus that remained, only
marks the place where once stood splendid build
ings The plantations were minus fences and

the proceedings by which the chief officers of our
Government for the next four years are designated
for their responsible trust
In the way of legislation, not much has been per-
fected of special importance to your readers since

to get a reprint of the BILL am uninformed as to
its details. The House will take it up soon, when
I will be able to give you its provisions:
The Bankrupt bill is in stdt1 quo in the Senate,
and will probably remain so to the close OF the
session.
Preparations are being made for the Inauguration
ceremonies of the 4th of March, on IA grand scale.

covert rebels.

LATE REBEL NEWS

| We have Richmond journals of the 18th
from which we take the following items of
news:
AFFAIRS IN SOUTH CAR0LINA-WHEELER BEATS
FITZPATRICK NEAR AUGUSTA
The Dispatch says: &" We have. for some
days, been in doubt as to what force Sber-
man had sent in the direction of Augusta.
This doubt has at length been solved. It
seems that while his main army advanced
toward Branchville and Charleston, he sent
fitzpatrick and his cavalry to demonstrate
against Augusta and to break up the Char
lesion and Augusta Railroad From official
dispatches received at the War Depart
ment, we learn that on last Friday Gen.
Wheeler attacked Fitzpatrick at Aiken, on
the Charleston and Augusta Railroad,
twenty miles northeast of Augusta, and,
after considerable engagement, drove
them five miles in the direction of Branch
vile.
An official dispatch, received from Col
umbia yesterday, states that in consequence
of the enemy having occupied Orangeburg
In force, our troops have abandoned Branch
vile. This is, in effect, the same state
ment as made by us yesterday. Our troops
have, by this time no doubt fallen back to
the Congaree River, which with the Wa
teree forms the Santee Columbia is situa-
ted Immediately upon the right bank of the
Congaree, 80 miles above its confluence
with the Wateree. If our troops fall back
behind the Congaree, the enemy will be
able to she'll Columbia from the south bank
OF that stream. We also learn that the
Congaree and is tributary, the Saluda, are
both easily fordable above the city This
disposes us to believe that our troops will
seek to give battle before crossing the Con-
garee.n
