Of.the prominent question's, competed
-with tbe prosecution ,of the ! war,'is
not even-yct fully Understood. ! i-
We desire, therefore, to odbupy a
short spspce in tbe columns of the
Argus, as b medium through which to
reply to tbeseinterrogatoritlS,Jand de-;
fine what we conceive to be the spirit
by which the Union Atmy is actual
ated. '-vV L. !
We are asked,, “if wo have riot,
grown tired,of the war, and discour
aged at the slow’progress of the cause
and the reverses of. the "past ”, |
If it be meant to ask whether we
are weary of. the hardships, privations
and exposure of a protracted cam-;
paigri, the long exile [from friends
arid home, the fearful waste.of life arid
treasure, then our prompt and unhes
itating reply, is in the affirmative;
hut if it be-.meaiit to insinuate by this
quest' involving
tiTo it .undying
priric' intending,
and ft our com
paniot ily grave;
would wo reply?
stilfn jgativo.
Nor is there anything in the pro
gress-which we have made, or tho- ; re*
verses with 'which we havo met, Mh
discooiage or depress ns. But on the'
contrary, when, we remember the vast
extent of the enemies territory now,
ior our possession, the rivers, forts and
•ajties. wrestedfrora hi* traitorous
grasp, together with the despondency,
and gloom everywhere, apparent,
throughout the dominipns of treason,
we rejoice in the assurance that the
progress of our cause has not only
been rapid, but sure and decisive.
It is true, the army may not have'
accomplished all that an enthusiastic
<ar.d over-sanguine populace expected;
but-the history of all wars has taught
[ us, that-their progress invariably fails
to satisfy the hopes of the people. • ■
, Top much is expected,and.especially
by those who have overlooked the ob
stacles- in the way ; and a series of
lyilHarit triumphs and uninterrupted'
successes,- and the-speedy' subjugation
of the enemy muat Wsccafod, or they
give Way to hopeless discouragement,
and too ofieri; to hittor. dariunciationa
of the Government.
. we have not forgofton that out'
faibeis stingglcd seven long years to
establishJtbe principles, which under
lie dnr free and yet be
fore three years have passed. We are
seriously asked’Whether wc have nht
grown weary and'discouraged in- the
effort fqr their perpetuation I
of the Italian patriot?
despdiis of his country is
either a traitor pr a cow.nrd,’’ is en
dorsed by ttfearmy and meetsan echo
in everyloyal heart. '
' Again wOare asked,-“bow weview
the policy of th o-'Goyefnnient in free
ing and arming slayesl” t
/ Th e wisdom of* Uio Bfoclamalion of
freedom, viewed as a 'Vwar measure”
Bueras not to admit of a- doubt. The
right to destroy slavery or any other el
ement of power- in possession of an
enemy.must bn rrgnrdnd,.in jtiffiiw-irf

‘a power military opdr%»

emy ;■ this prinwpleis "recognized by
the .-law of natrons and‘the .usages of

‘ Surely then, to Weaken the Eobcl
lions States, by dopriving tl.em of the
laborjof their slaves, is.bnta legitimate
means to tbyovertbrow oil Rebellion,
and be*wiro would oppose it may find,
the-carise''bf that opposition in a latent
sympathy for the object which it
most effects. . ,
Hitherto, in the mitfds.of many true
patriots, strong prcjudicpjigaiosl the
employment ofnegro soldiers, has ex
isted, hr-sing, mainly i n wapt of con.fi
