How shall we treat the Rebsl Leaders,

The New York Eoening Post answers this
question very well,-'first catch them and
keep them afterwards"
II the rebel leaders or portion Of them
should be treated according to their own
teachings, they would fare hard indeed. For
example, Gov. Wise and the state of Virginia
hung John Brown and his confederates for an
act of treason in comparison with which the
treason of Wise and his confreres is as the
Atlantic ocean to mere horse pond. There
would not be hemp enough in Kentucky fully
to carry out the teachings of Wise & Co, in
this regard.
Some say the rebel leaders should be expa-
triated, but is it right to send men abroad
to curse other countries who have proved
dangerous in our own? We have serious
doubts on this point We donbt our right in
wedding our own garden, to throw the weeds
over the wall upon other mems premises.
Mr.. Lincoln's amnesty proclamation propos
ed clemency to all military men below the
rank of Colonel, but it is difficult to see why
Lieut.. Colonel or Major, or any other off
Ger who has voluntary accepted Office, may
not be as guilty, and as deserving OF punish
ment as Colonel or a General officer.
One thing we would do had we the power !;
we would not shed much If any blood after
the rebellion is once subdued, but we would
disfranchise the leaders, and forever exclude
them from the councils of the nation. Jeff.
Davis will no doubt contrive to get out OF the
country. Let him 60, and as many more as
may follow, but those who remain, who have
been leading spirits in this great treason, we
would brand with the mark of Cain, and let
them be vagabonds, if not fugitives in the
earth El2t 4laF

Temperance Convention,

The Cumberland County Temperance Con-
vention was held at the First Congregational
Churc in Yarmouth on Wednesday last
The meeting was called to order by Chas. A.

Humphrey, A. r. Mitchell and others, enter
timed the Convention by able and instructive
remarks.
Owing to the condition Of the weather the
attendance was not large, but the meeting was
a most excellent one, and it is believed that
good will result therefrom. During the even
ing session Mr.. Beale offered the following re-
solve, which was adopted:
ResolUed, That County Temperance Asso-
Citations vigorously conducted, are efficient in
struments in carrying forward this great re-
form; and we earnestly recommend to our
brethren In other Counties the perfecting of
sucn organizations as auxiliaries In the good
work throughout the State.
Mr.. Rich also moved vote of thanks In
Rev. d. W. Waldron of Augusta, for his zeal
Gus efforts in sustaining these conventions
during the past few months, and also an ex-
preston of the kindly feeling with which the
Temperance people Of this section will fol-
low him in the new field of labor to which he
goes.

Our consistent ~ neighbor of the argus
expresses the hope-very proper, but entirely
uncalled for-that "the leading organ OF the
dominant political party in this state Is not 10
become the open advocate to violence" Does
our friend and neighbor properly consider thai
sthe leading organ" referred to denounced,
with unspariDg severity, the baby killing mob
of his friends, and OF Gov. Seymour's "friends
and immediate constituents" in New York,
when his mouth was as close as an oysters ?
Does he give proper weight to the fact that
when his paper exulted over and cheered on
the mob of respectable" gentlemen in Ire.
mont Temple, Boston, thai broke up an anti
slavery meeting, drove from the hall those
who had hired and paid for it, and acted like
infuriate demons, all 10 the name Of "the Con
stitution and tho enforcement of the laws"
we denounced the whole thing as fla
grant invasion of the most sacred rights Of
free citizens? Does he remember that when
a bowling mob, at later day, in the name
"the Union" bounded Wendell Phillips in
Boston, following him upon the Sabbath like
pack of demons, from the hall where he had
addressed regular Sabbath congregation to
his home, that his paper said, if not in words
at least in spirit, Served him right?"
In fine, does our neighbor give sufficient
prominence to the fact that for four years we
have been fighting and denouncing the great
Southern mob, while he has, if not openly
apologized for it, been very sparing in his de-
nuncations and rebukesP Does he not know
'that he has, times without number, denounced
the editor of the Press, as a renegade Demo
crat and turn coat, when the head and front OF
his offending has been that he stood by the
Government in putting down the mob rather
than stand with him, as the apologist and
friend of the mob by opposing, embarrass
ing and denouncing the government Has it
ever occurred to him that his paper has never
been known to oppose the mob spirit only
when it was arrayed against his political
friends; never when raised by his friends and
arrayed against his political opponents? But
we hope he has been converted to better
rule of action, aud SO long as he will denounce
all mobs and manifestation of mob spirit,
among his friends as well as enemies, at the
South as well as the North, in the interest OF
slavery as well as of Freedom, we will not
trouble him by calling up by-gones or with I'M
pleasant "reminiscences, but treat him as q
brother beloved, and wish him hearty God
speed in all good ways and works.
