IN TUB FIRLD, August —, 1804.
Bon. Robert OW, Commissioner of Exchange:
Sin i Your note to Major Mulford, assistant agent
Of exchange, under date of 10th of August, has been
referred to me.
You therein state that Major Mulford has several
times proposed to exchange prisoners respeettvely
held by the two belligerents, officer for officer and
man for man and that "the offer has also been made
by other officials having charge of matters connected
with the exchange o prisoners," and that "this
proposl has been heretofore declined by the Con.
federate authorities;" that you now consent to the
above proposition, and agree to deliver to you (Major
Mulford) the prisoners held in captivity by the Con
federate authorities, provided you agree to deliver
an equal number o officers and men. AS equal
numbers are delivered from time to time, they will
be declared exchanged. This proposal lemado with
the understanding that the officers and men on bete
aides who have been longest in captivity will be first
delivered, where It is practicable.
From a Slight ambiguity in your phraseology, but
more, perhaps, from the antecedent action of your
authorities, and because of your acceptance of it, I
am In doubt whether you have stated the proposi
tion with entire accuracy.
It Is true, a proposition was made both by Major
Mulford and by myself, as Agent of Exchange, to
exchange all prisoners of war taken breither belli
gerent party, man for man, officer for °Meer, of
equal rank, or their equivalents. It was made by
me as early as the first of the winter of 18634, and
has not been accepted. In May last I forwarded to
you a note, desiring to know whether the Confede
rate authorities intended to treat colored soldiers of
the United States army as prisoners of war,. To that
Inquiry no answer has yet been made. To avoid
all possible misapprehension or mistake hereafter
as to your offer now, will you now say whether you
mean by " prisoners held In captivity" colored men,
duly enrolled and mustered into the service of the
United States, who have been captured by the Con
federate forces ; and If your authorities are willing
to exchange all soldiers so mustered into the United
States army, whether colored or otherwise, and the
officers commanding them, man for man, officer for
orncer ?
At an interview which was held between yourself
and the agr nt of exchange on the part of the United
States, at Fortress Monroe, in March teat, you will
do me the favor to remember the principal diaous •
lion turned upon this very point; you, on behalf of
the Conlederato Government, claiming the right to •
hold ail negr.;es who bad heretofore been slaves,
and n t emancipated by their masters, enrolled and
mustered into the service of the United States,
when captured by your forces, not as prisoners of
war, but upon capture to be turned over to their
supposed masters or claimants, whoever they might
be, to be held by them as slaves.
By the advertisements In your newspapers, call
ing upon masters to come forward and claim these
men so captured, I suppose that your authorities
still adhere to that claim—that is to say, that when
ever a colored soldier of the United States is cap
tured by you, upon whom any claim can be made
by any person residing within the States now in in
surrection, such soldier is not to be treated as a pri
soner of war, but is to be tamed over to his supposed
owner or claimant and put at euchlabor or ser Vice as
that owner or claimant may choose, and the officers In
command of such soldiers, in the language of a sup
posed act of the Confederate States, are to be turned
over to the Governors of Stales, upon requisitions,
for the purpose of being punished by the laws of
such States, for acts done in war in the armies of
the United Statee.
You must be aware that there is still a proclama
tion by Jefferson Davis, claiming to be (thief Execu
tive of the Confederate States, declaring in sub
stance that all officers of colored troops mustered
into the service of the United States were not to be
treated as prisoners of war but wore to be turned
over for punishment to the Governors of States.
I am reciting these public ante from memory and
will be pardoned for not giving the exact words, al
though I believe I do not vary the substance and ef
feet.
These declarations on the part of those whom you
represent yet remain unrepealed, unannulled, unre
vexed, and Most therefore be still supposed to be au
thoritative. By your acceptance of our proposition,
is the Government of the 'United states to under.
stand that these several claims, enactments, and
proclaimed declarations are to be given up, set
aside, revoked, and held for naught by the COnfedee
rate authorities, and that yon are ready and willing
to exchange man for man those colored soldiers of
the 'United States, duly mustered and enrolled as
euoh, who have heretofore been claimed ae Slaved by
the Confederate States, as wallas white soldiers ?
If t color e d, and you are so willing to exchange
thesemen claimed as slaves, and you will so
officially inform the Government of the United •
States, then, as 1 am Instructed, a principal difficul
ty in effecting exchanges will be removed.
As 1 informed you personally, in my judgment, it
Is neither consistent with the policy, dignity, of ho
nor of the United States, upon any consideration
to allow those who, by our laws, solemnly enacted,'
'are made soldiers of the 'Union, and who have been
duly enlisted, enrolled, and mustered as such sol
diers—who have borne arms in behalf of this coun
try, and who have been captured while fighting in
.:vindication of the rights of that country, not to be
treated as prisoners of war, and remain unseal:mug
' ad, and in the service of those who claim them as
masters; and I of believe that the Government
of the United States will ever be found to consent
to so gross a wrong.
Pardon me if I misunderstood you in supposing-
that your acceptance of our proposition does not in
good faith mean to include all the soldiers of the
Union, and that you still intend, if your acceptance
Is agreed to, to hold the colored soldiers of the
Linton unexChatged, and at labor or service; because
I am informed that very lately, almost cotempo
raneously with this offer on your part to exchange
• prisoners, kid which seems to include all prisoners
of war, the Confederate authorities have made
declaration that the negroes heretofore held to ser
vice by owners In the States of Delaware, Mary
lead, anti Missouri are to be treated as prisoners of
war when captured In arms in the service of the
United States. Such declaration that a part of the
colored soldiers of the United States wore to be prl
;tonere of war would Co o m
bes ost' strongly to imply
that others were not so treated, or in other
words, that colored men from the insurreetionary
States are to be held to labor and returned to their
=eaters, if captured by the Confederate forces while
duly enrolled and mustered Into and actually in the
,armies of the United States.
In the view which the Government of the United
States takes of the claim made by you to the per
sons and services of these negroes it is not to be
supported upon any principle of national or munial
pai taw.
Looking upon these men only as property, upon
your theory of property in them, we do not see how
this claim can-be made, certainty not how it can be
yielded. It 18 believed to be a well-settled rule of
public international law, and a custom and part of
. the laws of. war, that the capture of movable pro
pert th erefore , the title to that property in the captor,
and, where one belligerent gets into full
possession property belonging to the subjeots or
citizens of the other belligerent the owner of that
property is at once divested of his title,which rests
In the belligerent Government capturing and hold
ing such possession. Upon this
an d ,
international
law all civilised nations have milted, and by it both
belligerents have dealt with all property, save
slaves, taken from mesh other during the present
war.
If the Confederate forces capture a number of
horses from the United States, the animals immedi
ately are olalmed to be, and, as we understand it,
tremble the property of the Oonfedemto authorities.
If the United States capture any movable pro
perty In the rebellion, by our regulations and laws,
in conformity with international law -and the laws '
of war, such property is turned over to our Govern
ment as its property. Therefore, if we obtain pos
session of that species of property known to the
laws of the insurrectionary. •Slates as slaves, why
' should there be any doubt that ' that property ,' like
any other,,yeste in the United States 1
Tf the property In the elavasiCela Ile vent, then the
sijus disporiendt," the right ofllliapeting Of that pre- ,
party, rests In the United States.
Now, the United States have disposed of the pro
perty which they have acquired rig h tpture in slaves
taken •by them., by giving that of property to
the man himself, - to the slave, t. e., by emancipating
bin and declaring him free forever, so that If we
have not mistaken the principles of international
law and the laws of war, we have no slaves In the
armies of the United States. All are free men,
-being made so in moth manner as we have chosen to
dispose of our property in them which we acquired
by capture.
Slaver; being captured by us, and the right of
property in them thereby vested in us, that right of
property has been disposed of by us by manumitting
them, as has always been he acknowledged right
of the owner to do to his t
slave. The m g anner ln
which we dispose of our property while It Is In our
possession certainly cannot be questioned by you.
Nor Is the case altered if the property Is not actu
ally captured in battle, but comes either voluntarily
or involuntarily from the belligerent owner Into tire
polleelleion of the other belliget. . .
I take It no n o would doubt theright piths United
States to a drove of Confederate mules, or a hard of
Clonfederate cattle, which shoold wander or rush
across the Confederate tines into the lines of the
United States army, So it seems to me, treating
the negro as property merely, if that piece of pro.
party passes the Confederate lines, and comes into
• the lines of the United States, that property te as
much lost to Its owner in the Confederate States as
would be the mule or ox, the property of the resi
dent of the Confederate States, which should fall
into our hands.
11 , therefore, the principles of international law
and the laws of war used In this discussion are cor
rectly stated, then it would seem that the deduction
logically flows therefrom, in natural sequence, that
the Confederate States can have no claim upon the
negro soldiers captured by them from the armies of
the United States because of the former ownership
of there by their citizens or subjects, and only claim
tor Such a result,
y. tinder the laws of war, from their Cap
merel
MD° the Confederate authorities claim the right to
induce to a state of slavery free men, prisoners of
- war captured by theml This claim our fathers
yougutatesinst under Bainbridge and Decatur, when
Set u p by the Barbary Powers on the northern
shore of Africa, about the year 1800, and in 1884
- their children will hardly yield it upon their own .
Teta point I will not pursue further, because Inn. •
deretanll you to repudiate the idea that you will
reduce freemen to slaves because of capture In war,
and that you base the claim of the Confederate au
thOritiee to neenslave our negro soldiers when cap.
lured by. you. upon the "Papas( /Mini." or that
principle of the law of nations which rehabilitates; •
the former owner with his property taken by an •
-enemy, when such property is reoevereel by the
forces of his Oall country.
Or, In other words, y ou
i claim that by the lawn of
I/2a UMW and of war, W en,properly of the eubjects of ;
1 one belligerent Power, captured by the fere*, °CUM
other belligerent, is recaptured by the armies of the
former owner, then such property is to be restored
to Its prior possessor, as If it had never been cap
e toted, and, therefore, under this principle your au
thoritiee propose to restore to their masters the
slaves which heretofore belonged to them which
you may capture from us.
But this postilminary right under which you
claim to act, as understood and defined by all wri
ters on national law ' Is applicable simply to iffieneva-•
*property, and that, too, only after the complete
resubjugation of that porn upon which unly r t ill
g n ht fas
the property Is situated,
tens itself. By
ab t ie hiorw-ar ' thie
right has never been applied to moll property. teted
the laws andouso
apply it to the case o slaves, but for 2,000 years no
True it is, I believe s , that the ROM at aat mp tO
Other nation has attempted to set tip this right as
slaves differently from other
tCi t i .e n i d tT for treating
But the Romans even refused to raenslave men
captured from opposing belligerents in a civil war,
such as ours unhappily is.
Consistently, then, with any principle of the law
of nations, treating slaves as property merely, it
would seem to be impossible for the Government of
the United States to permit the negroes in their
ranks to be re -enslaved when captured, or treated
otherwise than as prisoners of war.
I have forborne, sir, In this discussion, to argue the
question upon any other or different grounds of
right than those adopted by your authorities in
claiming the negro asproperty because I under-
Stand that your fabric of opposition to the Govern
ment of the United States has the right of property
in man as its corner-stone. Of course, it would not
.be profitable in settling a question of exchange of
prisoners of war to attempt to argue the question of
abandonment of the very corner-stone of their at
tempted poUtioal edifice. Therefore, I have admit
ted
all the considerations which should apply to the
negro soldier as a man, and dealt wfth hint upon the
Confederate theory of property only.
I unite with you most cordially, sir, in desiring a
speedy settlement of all these questions, in view of
the great suffering endured by our prisoners In the
bands of your authorities, of which you so feelingly
Speak. Let me ask, in view of that suffering, why
)on have delayed eight months to answer a proper
talon which by now accepting you admit to beright,
just, and humane, allowing thatsuffering to coritinue
so long 7 One cannot help thinking, oven at the
risk of being deemed uncharitable, that the benevo
lent sympathies of the Confederate authorities have
been lately Stirred by the depleted condition of their
armies, and a desire to get into the field to affect the
present campaign the hale, hearty, and well thd prl
'Boll erS hold by the United blows in exchange for the
half-atarved, sick, emaciated, and unservioeable
soldiers of the United States now languishing in
your prisons. The events of this war, it we did not
know it before, have taught us that it is not the
Northern portion of the American people alone who
know how to drive sharp bargains.
The wrongs, indignities, and privations suffered
by our soldiers would more Me to Consent CO any
thing to procure their exchange, except to !Adel'
away the honor and faith of the Government of the
United States, which has been so Solemnly pledged
to the colored soldiers in its ranks.
Consistently with national faith and justice, we
cannot relinquish this position. . With your autho
rities it 18 a question of property merely. It seems
to address itself to you In this form. Will you suffer
your soldier, captured in fighting your battles, to be
in oonflnomont for months, rather than release him
by giving for him that which you call a piece of pro
party, and which we are willing to accept as a man 7
You certainly appear to place less value upon
your soldier than you do upon your negro. I assure
you v rouch as we of the North are accused of loving
property, our citizens• would have no dif4culty in
yielding up any piece of property they have In ex- ,
change for one of their brothers or sons languishing
in your prisons. Certainly there could be no doubt
less in
would do s thousand t piece of property
less in value than fivedollars in Confede
rate money, which is believed to be the price of an
able-bodied negro in the insurrectionary States.
Trusting that I may receive such a reply to the
questions propounded in this note* as will lead to a
speedy resumption of the negotiations for a fall ex
cnange of alkprlaoners, and a delivery of them to
theft respective authorities, I have the honor to be,
very respectfully, your obedient servant,
BENJ. F. B erten,
Major Gen. and Commissioner of Exchange.

Neutral BiLlitary Hospitals.
(From the London Times, August - 19.1
An International Congress is sitting at Geneva,
the object of whioh Is explained in the following pro
poillUons, emanating from the Swiss members of the
Congress, as a basis for the deliberations:
"The undersigned representatives, united in Con
gress at Geneva, have adopted the following regula
tions to be observed in case hostilities should take
place between their roSpiletivo nations :
"Art. I. Ambulances and military hospitals shall
be regarded as neutral, and, as such, protected and
respected by the belligerents as long as they shalt
contain any sick or wounded.
"Art. 11. The whole sanitary staff, including doc
tors, surgeons, apothecaries, attendants, Sic., ' are to
be regarded as neutrals.
"Art. 111. The above-named persons shall be al
lowed, even after the enemy is in possession, to ful
fil their duties in the ambulance or hospital where
they may happen to be as lag as their services are
necessary and will then be allowed to leave with
out the slightest hindrance or molestation.
"Art. IV. However, such persons will only be
allowed to take away with them what is strictly
their own personal property. All the materiel be
longing to the ambulance or hospital Comes under
the rules of war.
"Art. V. Inhabitants of the country who may
have rendered service in conveying the wounded,
or bringing them help (aecours) upon the battlesfield,
shall be equally respected and left unmolested.
"Art. Soldiers (eli2 itaires) severely wounded,
whether already received in the ambulances or
hospitals or taken from the battle-field, shall not
only be taken care of, no matter to what nation
they belong, but shall not be made prisoners. They
shall be allowed to return to their homes, bat on
the condition that they shall not bear arms pending
the duration of the campaign.
"Art. VII. The soldiers, mentioned in the above
uncle shall receive a free pass, and, if necessary,
means for their journey, when well enough to leave
their place of treatment
• "Art. VIII. ,The articles required for the sick
and persona attached to the ambulance or hospital
or hospital shall be-provided by the army in Pots
session, the cost of which articles shall be repaid
by due voucher at a later period.
"At. IX. A ffistlnot uniform and badge shall be
worn by all officers and men connected with the
sanitary department In all armies. Every country
shall also adopt the same flag to be hoisted over
military ambulances or hospitals. A rod cross on a
white ground is proposed.
"Art. X. Any person wearing the badge for other
purposes; as for spying;Hall be treated with all the
rigors of unitary law.
"Art.. XI. Stipulations analogous to ,the above
relative to maritime warfare may form the object of
an ulterior Convention between the Powers Inte
rested."
The city of Geneva is about to give the world
some new doctrines of the laws of war which we
ma) easily trace to the teachingriof a French school
- of reformers. An e International Congress "
that is, an assembly- of gentlemen Including, pro.
bably, everybody who chooses to come—is nittiog
for the purpose of ameliorating the practices of war,
and amost amiable series of resolutioue has been
put forth to be the basis of their deliberations. The
delegates of the human race who meet on the shores
of Lake Leman have discovered that war is a
vary inhuman proceeding. When two nations
quarrel they send out certain thousands of men
oressed in gaily-colored cloth and armed with
deadly weapons, and these people inflict on
each other severe wounds, of which some Instantly
die, and others linger in pain and confinement for
weeks and months. The dreadful accompaniments
of war appear to have had finch an effect on the
leaders of this Congress that they now propose to.
lessen them by. regulations of a. novel kind. To
wcund men In order to send them home ; to support
doctors on credit, and, when their work is done, send
them back to doctor others of the enemy; to supply
whatever Is wanted by the enemy's hospitals,' and
to keep a book of the expenstrewith the intention of
sending In the' bill at the end of the campaign; these
are the measures recommended by the phnantluo
pieta of the day for making the killing of human
• beings a more gentle and civilized practice. With
the utmost respect for these gentlemen and a full
belief that they are amiable and sincere, we
must declare our conviction that little moral good
comes from these attempts to make artificial rules
for the conduct of war, and, as they would phrase
.It, to " humanize" international strife. Humane
war is " hot ice and wondrous seething snow,"
and for men to take the practice of international
destruction as inevitable, and give their minds to
the elaboration of expedients for preventing it
from being what It must always be, is a perver-.
sion of talents and a waste of labor. Undonbte
edly great and gifted men have written of the
laws of war, and have influenced Christendom so
much that certain practices are praised as ho
norable, and others condemned as ferocious and
cowardly. But beyond the custom of not butcher
lug prisoners in cold blood there is hardly one
of tnese rules which has not been- continually
violated- by contending armies, and In the latest
hostilities which have caned the globe the de
parture from the chivalrous principles of war
making has been most marked. - The Americans,
both Federate and Confederates, have made war
more like the wild Indians, who possessed the
Country before them, than men who have inherited
all the maxims and practices of Christian Europe.
The Federate began the outrages, and their adversaries
seem likely to better the Instruction. The notion of
making elaborate rules for the conduct of war,stipu
lating forthe repayment of what each side advances,
for the perfect freedom of every one Connected with
the mealeal staff of either army, and the sacredness
of every building in which there shall be sick and
wounded, is the mere pedantry of organization. Can
any one believe that in such a campaign as Gen.
Grant has been carrying on In Virginia, where each
commander's whole faculties have been concentrated
On the weakening and outwitting of his adversary,
any Each rules of Courtesy would be observed?
Would the two armies straggling in the depths of
Georgia, would the fierce partisans of the Western
States allow any building or set of men to be consi
dered neutral, and to sat up an independent auttue
rite in territory held by them? Stroh artificial roe
gulations would never survive the first shock of real
warfare between embittered nations ; and it is for
Buck contests that rules of war must be made, if
they are made at all. Fighting Is likely to be less
frequent than in past ages, but sharper and fiercer,
and with less of termer chivalry. The laws of the
audio, the spirit of which these Genovese humani
tarlane seem inclined to rival, are not calculated for
the earnest purpose of men in the present age, who,
when they fight, will use every effort to destroy their
enemy, and fancy they aro most humane when they
do this most quickly and effectually.
It there were no other reason against these pro
posals, it would be enough that in a campaign they
Would be almost certainly nugatory. But they have
a positive hurtfulness, Since they tend to encourage
the nation that war can be made less a scourge of
mankind by the adoption of a certain artificial pro
cedure. It wars are to be waged at all, it is for the
benefit of the world that they should be all abort as
possible. The sooner the victorious army disperses
and reins the army it has beaten. the sooner is the
final arbitrament given and the dispute brought to
an end. It Is better, therefore, to hamper war with
as few regulations as pearible, and to give no en
couragement to any practice which would allow the
worsted party the means of delaying the necessary
consequences of Its defeat. After all, the only safe
guard for the wounded or the prisoner .1s the hu
manity of the conqueror ; to that trust must be
given, and we hope and believe that in no recent
war has the plain duty of succoring wounded enemies
been forgotten. It is better to confide in unenforced
humanity than to set up pretended laws which
would be continually and inevitably set aside.
An English View or She Irieh Question.
(From the London Times of August 21
A strong impression, we believe, prevails on the
continent of Europe, In the United States of Ame•
rica, and in the native press of ilindostan, that
Whatever be the merits of Great Britain with regard
to her own government, her treatment of Ireland
even up to the present day is 'without excuse or pal.
liation—is, in fact, that Week stain which she would
carefully conceal from the eyes of foreign nations,
and, were it possible, from her own. In our long
and checkered career the treatment. of Ireland at
the present time '
under the 'present Government, is
pitched upon as the one thing for which no excuse
can be offered and no defence can be attempted.
People point to the Irish exodus, to tumbledown
tome, to unreolaimed bogs, to extinct manufac
hum, to neglected fisheries, and ask triumphantly
what tier proof of misgovernment can be afforded
than the condition of a country which is do such a
state after 700 years of English occupation. This
is an argument -which every one can understand,
and that without the slig htest exercise of the
thinking faculties. There is Ireland, here Is her
Government ; read the doings of theesinonthcee
condition of the other. It thrown E ngland
On the defensive, and gives the vantage groundto
her most Ignora n t nd most Inveterate aili it a s.
yet If we could come a little nearer to filets we
in oonvinoing a candid
should have no difficulty
disputant—if such a one could be found on such
a subject—that the continuance of the evils
under which Ireland undoubtedly suffers depends
on causes which' no Government can make and
no Government can cure, and whloh are, indeed,
almost solely traceable to the people of Ireland
themselves. If slovenly cultivation still continues,
if the land still Iles desolatefor want of drainage,
the, fault la . not , In the Government, but in
the well-known fact that there is a blunderbuss
ready to take the - life of every one - who earnestly
sets himself to introduce agricultural Improvement.
If manufactures which once flourished are now
extinct, It is because continual strikes have driven
away the capital which once tfiffi,ght gild Nitta In
theta a profit t eble investment. If the inexhaust
ible resources which nature offers te' Ireland' Ill s
the fish of the teeming ocean that turrounds her
shores are negleoted and suffered to go to waste, It
is either because a tribe of savages at Galway is •
suffered to drive away all competitors from smocou
ration which they are too lazy to pursue themselves,.
or because the spiritless and inert innabitants of the
coast are not manly and hardy enough for this rough
but lucrative calling. The sea, which lea mine of
wealth to the east of Scotland, rolls inestimable
treasures past the coast of Ireland, and she will not
put oat her band to arrest them. Concord and in
. dustry, '
confidence in themselves, and con fi dence in
'each other, are qualities which no Government can
' create, no legislation can impart, and yet to these
two wants may almost all the evils which vex Ire
land in the present day be attributed.
Seventeen years alter the death of O'Connell, a
certain portion of the Irish nation seems to have
awoke to the conviction that it was right to do
Something for his memory. The movement was not
purely sentimental;. much that was sordid was
mixed up in it, and it probably was not free from
the natural wish to intinence the elections, which
cannot be long deferred, by reviving the remem
brance of a great name. Nobody will accuse us
of exaggerated admiration for the character or
conduct of the Liberator, but we have always
thought that from Irelend, at least, he merited
a .yery different recognition from any which he has
received. The proceedings at Dublin were con
ducted with the utmost propriety, and no provoca
tion of any kind was given to sectarian violence.
It was a matter •as we should have thought, en
tirely for the ad mirers of O'Connell to settle among
themselves, in which, if they were content, nobody
else was called on to interfere. It is free to Catho
licism to celebrate the memory of O'Connell "just
es it is free to Protestantism to march round tho
monument of Walker at Perry or of William in
College Green. But, though England gives Irish
men every possible liberty to celebrate what heroes,
to form what processions, and to make what speeches
they. choose, Irishmen are ever ready to deny to
each other that liberty which is freely granted to
them by the imtsassible Saxon. On the same day
that the first stone of the monument to O'Connell
was laid in Dublin, this same O'Connell was burnt
in effigy at Belfast in the presence of 40,000 Irish
men. The Catholic mob of Belfast has committed
similar excesses by way of reprisal, blood has been
shed, and firearms have been used in the streets,
and each sect has pursued the other with the most
deadly and rancorous animosity.
We have so often been called upon to express our
indignation on such subjects that we scarcely care
to repeat expressions which every one can anticipate
for himself. How hopeless is the state of feeling
which grudges to fellow-citizens sot only the exer
cise of a religion in which they believe, and of the
liberty which is their birthright, but the harmless
satisfaction of commemorating the memory of a
friend and benefactor in a manner perfectly in
offensive ! " What profit laws without morals I"
asks the Boman poet; and what oan the moat
wife/tenet/ and tolerant ‘ r r tovernwiffet that the
iVort“
carry about in their own breasts an antidote to its
enlightening and civilizing Influencesl What avails
it to talk to the Irish of the present day. of the op
portunities of the present and the•glories of the
Suture ; to stimulate thorn not only by precept but by
the example of a material progress without a parallel
in the history of the world..l These people ate still
in the seventeenth century; they grovel in the petty
partisan disputes of that evil time; they cannot rise
to a conception of the dignity iMplied in the position •
of citizenship in an empire nke that of Great
Britain. They speak of Ireland as a unit opposeflto
Great Britain ; but Ireland is no unit, and carries
within. itself germs of mutual hostility far more
bitter than any . enmity which she feels towards
England. We overawe the two hostile camps into
which Ireland is divided, and force them, with
molt exceptions as the present outbreak, to be,
if not at pesos), at any rate ,at truce with each other;
' but because, though we can_oompel in general the
abstinence from external violenoe, we cannot root
out the deer...ea:dad rage and hatred which each
party delights to cherish against the other, we are
idenounce if we were the cause of the fury which
:we we only unfortunately unable to control. What
can we do morel We forbid the violence which
each party bums to exercise towards the other, and
, we do not confine ourselves to negatives, but offer
them, instead of these , endless brawls, the enjoy-.,
Merit of a common liberty and the means of a
boundless development of wealth and prosperity:
• But because we offer those things in vain because
the Irish prefer to the prosperity which is within
their grasp the prosecution of childish and obsolete
feuds, is England to be considered responsible for
these evils, or to lese her well-earned Character for
justice and liberality in the eyes of foreign nations I
We are confident that this will not much lenger
be the case. No doubt we must expect that, when-'
ever iris our misfortune to thwart the wishes or the
policy of any foreign' nation, the undoubted fact that
Ireland Is poor while Great Britain is rich, that Ire
' land is discontented while Great Bata's is at ease,
and that she never ceases to .attribute these things ,
to the evil influences of, our Government and our
policy, will not be lost 'sight of by those who seek
against us a subject of - invective; but the wharf.
some repetition of the same crimes and the same
riots, the same invectives to tree.son and rebellion
by the same persons on the • same occasions, mast
at'length convince the most incredulous that the
miseries of Ireland lie, not in her government, not
in her cotEnection with Great Britain, not oven in
her religion, but in the Irish. people themselves—a
race to which nature, while prodigal of many, and
great gifts, Men denied, as it would seem, the two
surest sources of prosperity, confidence in them
selves and the power of trusting In each other. We
know not how we are to teach the Irish nation that
which 18 so firmly impressed on the mind of every
English peasant, that the first duty of the citizen
of a free country is obedience to the law, except by
making that law asjnatand equal as we can and
enforcing it firmly , mildly, and impartially. In this
duty we have not been wanting, and if our honest
and disinters - nod efforts have not met with the
success which they deserve, we have a right to de
mand that their failure s hall, in the judgment of
contemporaries and of posterity, be attributed to its
true Cause.

Harry Gilmore, who figured in the late raid into
Maryland, was a physician in the State of New

—IC Melville Fay, who has been travelling
around the country as a spiritual medium, hum
bugging the people by giving exhibitions and per
forming strange feats, has been exposed by Mr. A.

an exhibition given by Fay at Cleveland, and at
the close announced to the audience that he would --
perform all the tricks which the medium had done,
and' show him up" on the following evening. He
tried it, outdone Fay in most of his tricks, and has
followed him up so closely that Fay himself has be •
come convinced that "spiritual manifestations"
are a humbug.. He has written a letter to Mr•
Dobbs, saying that ho will no longer act as a. public
test-medium, but Will in future follow some other
business.
