His Policy on the Slavery Question. The Frankjprt (Kentucky) Commonwealth publish es a correspondence betweeo Governor Bramlette and Colonel Hodges, whe accompanied the Governor to Washington, with the following letter addressed to Colonel Hodges by Mr. Lincoln: "EXECUTIVE MANSION, Washington, April 4. "A. G. Hodges. Esq-, Frankfort , Ay.: " My Dear Sir: You ask me to put in writing the vnbstaiice of what J. verbally raid, the other day, in your presence, to Governor. Bra*olgtte and Senator Dixao. It was abouie* follows; "It am naturally antvisiarery. If slavery is not wrong.-,nothing is wrong. I cannot remember when I did not so think and feel. And yet I have never understood that the Presidency conferred upon me an unrestricted right to act officially upon this judgment *ud feeling. It was in the oath I took that I would u te the best of my ability, preserve, protect ed defend the constitution of the United States. I could not Ir.kc the office.- without taking the oath. Nor was it my view that I might take an oath to get power and break,tb& oath i ft using the power. I understand, too, tl\t in ordinary civil administration, this oath even forbade me tp practically indulge iny primary abstract judgement on the moral question of slavery. I had publicly declared ihis many times and in many ways. And'.l aver. tJmt, to this day, I have done no official act in mere deference to my -ybstract judge ment and feelir_g on slavery. " I did understrnd, however, that my oath, to pre serve the constitution to the best of my ability, impos ed upon me the duty of preserving, by, evary. iudis pensible means, that government, that nation, of which that constitution was.the organic law. Was it possible to lose the nation, and yet preserve thje con stitution? " By general law, lifo and, limb, must be prelected; yet often a limb be amputated to save a, life: but a life is never, wisely given to,save a limb. I feel that measures otherwise unconstitutional, might be come lawful by becoming indispensable to the pres ervation of the nation. Right or wrong, I assumed this ground,, and. now avow; it. J could, not l'eel that to the best of my ability 1 had even tried to preserve the constitution, if to save slavery, yjv minor mat ter, I should permit the wreck of government, country and constitution, altogether. When, early,-in the war General Fremont attempted military emancipation, 1 forbade it, because I did not then think it an indis pensable necessity. When a liLtle later,. General Cameron, then Secretary of War, suggested the arm ing of the blacks, I objected,, because 1 did. U<>t yet think it an indispensable necessity. When shU later, General Huntoir%Stempted, military emancipation, 1 again forbade it, because I did not yet think thp iudis pensible necessity had come^ " M hea, iu Marah. and May, and July. 1802, I maM per centum, excepting those from printing paper, After some discussion the amendments deergasing the taritf to 834 per cent, on the present duty, and excepting goods in bond and transitu, were adopted in committee, but were rejected by the Senate.

The New York Times says that a movement is on fool; among the ladies of New York City to diminish somewhat the drain of gold from the country, by agreeing among themselves n,Qt to use any of the expensive fabrics imported from, abroad, which enter so largely just now into the consumption of the country. They pro pose to confinp themselves, so far as possible, to the use of home fabrics, while the war lasts. Such a movement among the ladies, if it becomes at all gen eral, will do good in many ways. It will relieve their husbands from paying a good many very heavy bills. It will thus, keep gold, not only within the country, but within their private purses. And it will ten dto build up and encourage the manufacture here at home, of a great many articles which are now impor ted. Few persons probably are aware of the extent to which the manufacture of a great many thiugs supposed to come exclusively from abroad, is already carried on here, at homo, This can and will be very much enlarged by such action as the ladies propose to take. We are told that already a great many of the silk fabrics sold hero as of foreign importation, arc actually made in Connecticut, and so far as to quality is concerned, nobody could tell the differ ence: Up to the present time the movement referred to has been pply a matter of conversation; but we presume some public demonstration will take place in regard to it before long. AN ATHEIST CONFOUNDED. —A clergyman was once travelling pa board of a western steamboat, when among passengers was a man yrho took great pains to make known that he was opposed to religion, de nouncing Christ as an imposter, and all forms of re ligion as delusions. He was a man of ability and edu cation, and a great wit, and his remarks seemed to have quite an influence on his hearers. The clergy man refrainpd tvom saying anything for a time, but fi nally determined tc > silence him. Asking the sceptic; if he believed in the immortality of the sonl, he re ceived as an answpr: 'No, I have none.' 'Do you be lieve in the existence of God?' 'No.' 'Then, sir,' re-, plied the clergyman, 'I have heard of you before.' •Heard of me?' 'Yps, and read about you.' 'Read about me! I was pqt aware that I was publisher- Pray where ?' 'ln tjra Psalms of David, sir where it reads, 'The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God." At this unlocked for turn in the argument, there was one genera} burst of laughter and hurrah at the expense of the atheist, who, confounded, and being unable to rally at hpjng thus unexpectedly cal led a fool, moved away to another part of the boat. During the remainder of the yoyage tsp wiseacre silent on religious subjects; but occasionally some of the passengers would tease him by slyly observing f 'l I have heard of you before." Kc*oh;yons of,the Union Stato . ( Couven'^fut.

Until peace elicits un qualified and entire submission to the national authority, war must he waged while thore is an arm left to strike a blow, and a dollar,jq the 1 na tional treasury to subsist a soldier. ltesolved, That we heartily endorse the policy of the national Administration, and the meatus em ployed for the suppression of rebellion, the . pun ishment of traitors at home and abroad; apoKiA which, if carried out, wllj end in the speedy tn-"' uiuph of our arms, and thy, security and permanen cy of the government. ( ltesolved, That we regard the renomination and election, of Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency as essential not only to the Jcomplqto overthrow of the slaveholders' rebellion, but us npcesaary to the full organisation and operation of lhafc policy which alone can'secure the future peace arid prosperity *)f a restored Union. The purity of his character, ,1110 liberality of his views, the independence of his action, and the regard which lie ever manifests for justice and right, fit him preeminently for the di rection of the affairs of the nation until its author ity is recognized, received and respected in all the States of the American Union. Resolved, That in response to the sentiment of the loyal men of Pennsylvania, and in justice to a tried and faithful public officer, the thank's of this convention are hereby tendered to Andrew (1. Curtin, Governor of the Commonwealth. His manly defence of the honor and dignity of the State, his unwavering adherence to its credit, and his vigilant care of its interests, have had their in fluence alike upon the political character of its cit izens, and the prosperity which now marks their and enterprise, and demands a people's high est admiration and applause. Resolved, That the alacrity with which the Gov ernor of Pennsylvania has contributed, through the aid vji our fellow-citizens, to the national de fence, is in keeping with the character of loyalty ever Dorne by the Keystone State. Through the active energy of Governor Curtin, Pennsylvania has had ujo satisfaction of knowing that her State flag lias floated in almost every, battel fought for the Union, while no commonwealth has gfiven more of its material means in aid of the govern ment thau the wist; and frugal measures of Andrew G. Curtit^ have enabled this State to extend to the national government. ltesolved, That the highest rewards of the nation are due to the brave men who are now in the field, j periling their lives in a struggle with a base and wicked conspiracy, that we will ever hold in grate ful recollection the memory of those who have already perished in the fight for the Union, and extend to those who survive to return once more to their Uopies, the honor which their valor has fairly won, and the peaceful rest'which their labors so eminently deserve. Resolved, That we thank the loyal members of the Legislature for the steady andpersisteut course 1 with which they have maintained the honor and I credit of the common wealth, and the-stern patriot ' ism with which they have resisted the revolution ! ary schemes of the minorities in the Senate and House. The attitude of the majority in both branches of the Legislature on the interest ques tion, and on the enfranchisement of the soldier, was controlled alike by a regard for economy and a determination to recognize in the defenders of the Union, deserving the Highest rank and franchises; while the course of general legislation has been such at least as to destrve for the Legisla ture, during the session about to close, our frank approval. Resolved, That iLp thanks q? ; the whole people ire due to the'giillant men who are now in the lead >f our armies, and that we hold ourselves in read iness)'at a moment' skrarning, to second the efforts T these to render the summer campaign against reason, the finalend of the struggle for the peace (f the country, and the full recognition of the au iiority of the governmental all the States.
