groes implies their social aud political equali-
~ with the white race, principle against
which the South has always contended. Gov
ernor Brown, of Georgia, has also deprecated
the arming OF slaves as a fatal confession of
weakness by the South, and surrender of
principle that contains the germs of dssolu-
tion. These men represent large minority,
I ii not majority of the Southern people, and
it Is apparent that the passage OF the negro
bill has greatly weakened the internal strength
of the rebellion. s7.aqa1
On the other hand it is extremely problem
atical whether any military advantages can be
derived from it. Whatever might have been
the result at an earlier day OF a plan, giving
the negroes their freedom as compensation
for military service, Mr.. Hunter Governor
Brown, and several Of the Southern papers
concur with most at the North In the opinion
tnat forcible conscription of the slaves under
the present law, will cause wholesale colored
stampede to the Union lines. They say, with
strong show of probability, that the negroes
have no love for glory and would infinitely
prefer to remain neutral, but if forced to
fight, will certainly take up arms on the Union

The End Approaching.


Significant indications that the end of the
rebellion is near at hand, and that the consti-
tutional authority OF the national government
will soon be exerted without opposition over
the whole OF the territory OF the United
States, pervade the political as well as the
military atmosphere. 1t can no longer be con-
cealed that the last attempt to fire the south
ern heaIt, made after the failure of the so-call-
ed peace conference at Hampton Roads, has
been unsuccessful, and that hopeless feeling
Of dependency has taken the place OF the un-
questioning faith in the triumph OF their
cause, which formerly nerved the hearts, and
strengthened the hands of the Insurgents
The prouC spirit of the South has at length
been broken, and there is no longer either uni
ity in the counsels of its leaders or unhesita-
ting compliance with the edcts of the Rich
mond government on the part ofits Masses
The step so long threatened has been taken.
The Confederate Senate has receded from its
opposition TO the negro enlistment bill, and it
has passed by bare majority Of one, Mr..
Hunte voting for it under protest, in obedi-
ence to the instructions OF the Virginia legis-
lature. This result is trinuiph of necessity
over principle The forced resort to the expe
dent OF arming negroes is distastelul and hu-
initiating 10 the people of the South, even in
the emascuated form in which it has been ad-
opted The bill does not emancipate the ne
jstence OF the institution of slavery in pecu-
liarly absurd manner. The President is au-
thorized to "aslz for and accept the slaves
from their masters, power in the master TO
refuse being thus implied, and then to help
himself to them il they should not be forth
coming in dne time. 1t is further provided
that "nothing in this act shall be construed to
authorize change in the relation Of the said
slaves" -i ssgc saafl III.
1t remains to be seen how this scheme will
work, but it is sdifficult to understand how any
substantial results can reasonably be expected
from it. Its first effect has been to rapidly
accelerate the process of disintegration. The
Shareholders generally are dissatisfied, and
threaten the withdrawal OF several of the reb
el States from the Confederacy, as well as 9th
Ner violent measures. Mr.. Hunter has declared
that, in his opinion, it is virtually a surrender
of the whole point at issue between the North
and the South, as the proposition TO arm me-
