1 the mesinge had been misunderstood, and.
was regarded as inimical. to the interests
we represented; and- he had resolved
to talk with. us and disabuse our malls of
that erroneouritriprelufion:
The President then, disclaimed any in
; tent to injure the interests or wound the
jsensibilities;of the Slave States. On the
! contrary, his purpose was to _protect the
one and respect the other; - that we are
engaged in a terrible wasting and tedious
war; immense armies were in the .field
and must, continue in the field as long as
the war lasts ;:that these armies must,' of
necessity, be brought into contact with
, slavetrin the States we represented, and in
:, other States as they advanced ; that slaves
would come to-the camps and eontittual
irritation was kept up; that he ;was con
, eitautly annoyed by conflicting and antag
onistic complajnts; on the one aide a ocr
i tain chins complained if-the slave was not
protected by the army; persons were fre
quently found, who, participating in these
views, acted in a way unfriendly to the
slaveholdir; on the other hand slavelicild
eta conitilained that their rights were in
terferett w#tly their-slaves induced toab
scond and proteetek,within the lines;
these complaints were: numerous, lot
and and deep; were a serious annoyan to
him and embarrassing to the progress of
the war; that it kept, alive a'spirit hostile
to the Government in the States we rep-.
resented-; strengthened the hopes of the
Confederates that at some day the Border
States would unite with theni, and thus
tend to pi:olimg the. war; arid" he was of
opieion, if this resolution was adopted by
Congress, and accepted by our States,
these causes of irritation and these hopes
would be removed, and more" would be
accomplished towards shortening the war
than could be hoped from the greatest
victory achieved - by the Vlnion arinies •
that he made this proposition in good
faith, and desired it to be accepted, if at
all, voluntarily, and in the same patriotic
spirit in which it was made; that enaCari
patina tros - a matter exclusively under the con
trol of the Sratea, and must - be adopted or
re jetted by each for itself; - that he did not
claim nor had this Got-eminent any right j
to coerce them for that purpose; that
such was no part of his purtiose in making
this proposition, and he wished it to be j
clearly understood'; that, he did . not ex
.pest us there to be prepared to give him
an answer, but lie hoped we would take
the matter into serious consideratioti, con
fer witlione another, and then take such
course as we felt our duty and the inter
ests.of our constituents required of-us.
Mr: Noel!, of - Missouri, said ja his State
slavery was not considered A permanent
institution; that natural causes werrilto.t.
in operation wlirch would, at n.-6lioint
day, extinguish it, and , he 11...1. think
that, this proposition was neeessar.• thr '
that; and besides that, he and his friends
felt solicitous as to the
_message on se
count of the different constructions which
the resolittion and message had received.
The New York Tribune was for it, and
understood it, to mean that we must at:-
cept gradual emancipation according to
the plan suggested, or get something
worse. - . I
- .
The President.replied,,he must not be
errected; to quarrel with the l 'lsTew York
Tr3bnne before the right time ; he hoped
never to have to dizi . it ; he would not an
ticipate eveirts. In respect to emancipa
tion in Missouri, he said 'that - what had
been observed observed•bylifr. Noes was piipbably
trite, but the operation of '•lheSe natural
cruises had not prevented the irritating
_conduct to, *hiclr be had referred, or de
stroyed the 'hopes of the Confederates
that Missouri would at sometime range
herself alongside of them, which in his
judgment the passage of this resolution
•by Congress,and its acceptance by Mis
souri would accomplish..• •
- Mr. Crisfield, of Maryland; asked what
world be the'etTect of the refusal of the
States to accept this proposal,Cand desir
ed to know if the President looked to,any
policy beyond the acceptance- or rejec
tion of his scheme.
The President replied thatlehad no de
signs,beyond the' t refusal olit!,
Mr. 31enzies, uf.Kentucky, inquired if
the President thought there was any pow
er except in the States themselves to car
; ry out . MC; scheme of ethancipation.
i The President replied-he thought there
could not'be, Ho then went off into a
course of remark qualifying the fore !
going -declaration nor material to be re
peated to a just understanding of his
meaning.
Crisfield said )ie did not think the
people of Maryland looked Upon slavery
as a_permanent institution ; and be did
not know that they would be very 'due
-1
, taut to give it_ tip if provision was. made
; to meet the loss, and they could be rid of
the race; • but they did not like to be 'co
-1 creed into emancipation..either by the di
' rect.action of the Government or by indi
rection; as tSrough )the emancipation of
`slaves in this District, or-the confiscation
of Southern property as now: threatened ;
and he thought. before they would consent
to consider this propotiltion. they would
, require to be ishirtne.d on these . points.
'The President replied that, "unless be
Vas expelled by the act or God 6r the
Confederate .armies, he 'should occupy
that house for three/Om and as long as
he retrained there 31aryland had nothing'
to fear, either for herrinstitytiona or her
interests, on the points referredto.".
I 31r . , Crisfield iMmediately added : AtIllr:
•I President, if what you ally could be beard
by, the - .people - of Maryland, they.would
consider your proposition with a much
I better. feeling -than. 1 tear without -it they .
will be inclined tQ do."
I • 'The President.- ' 4 That (meaning a pub-
:liestion of What he: said) will ;not do;- it
would fOroe,me-into x•cluariel before the
. priiper . time;" • and, again .intiniating,:•mi
he had before•done i that a quarrel With
the "Grerlidy faction". was impending, - he
said he "did not wish lb encounter it
•
• tore - toe proper.tinie, nor tit aU it could
Ibe avoided."-.• • _-.- • • •
I Dovernor Wickliffe, of Ky., hpn a: 3 / 4 yd
him respecting the ctinatitationaiity s of his
solieme. . ,
The Presidett- replied :yon may
:suppose, I have , oensidered‘ that; :and the
proposition

proposes simply to co-operate with any
State giving' such State pecuniary aid ;
and he thought that the resolution,- as
proposed byhun would be 'considered rath
er.as the expression of a sentiment than
as involving any constitutional question."
Mr. Hall,. of Missouri, thought that if
this. proposition was adcipted at all , it
should be by the votes oflhe free states,
and come n 8 proposition from them to
the slave states, affording them an induce
ment to put aside this subject of discord ;
that it ought not to be expected that mem
bers representing slaveholding, constitu
encies should declare at once, and in ad-
Nance of any proposition to them, for the
emancipation ofslavery. •
The President kid he saw acid - felt the
force &the objection; it was a fearful re
sponsibility and every gentleman must do
as he thought best • but that he did not
know how this scherCe was received by
the members from:the free silitt es ; some
of them had spoken Whim• and received
it kindly; but for the moat-part they
were as reserved and chary as we had
been and he could not tell how they
would 'vote. .And in reply to some ex
pression of Mr. Hall as to his Own opinion
regarding slavery., he said he did not pre
tend to disguise his anti-slavery feeling;
that he thought it -was Wrong, and should
continue to think so; but that was not
the question we had to deal with.
now. Slavery 'existed, and that,.too, as .
well by the act of the North as of the
South; and iu any scheme to get rid of it,
the North ; as well as well- as the South,
was morally bound to do its full and equal
share. lie thought the institution wrong,
and ought never to have existed 1 . but yet
he recognized the rights of property
which bad grown out of it, and would-res
pect those rights as fully as similar rights
in •any other property ; that property ran
exist, and, does legally exist. He thought
that law wrong, but the rights of proper
ty resulting must be respected; he, would

An occurrence attended_with fatal re
sults, took place in Philadelphia - on Tues.l
-day morning last, about 10 o'cloCk. The
circumstances are as follows: Charles 1-1.1
Alburger, aged 14 years, a son of Adam
Alburger, residing in second street below
Moore, was in a slaughter-house attached
to hiii fither's.residence, in company with
several boys about his own age. They,
wer' engaged in playing "John Brown"
e., going through the' fornis of hang
ing, ttc., using a dog of Mr. Albarger's
as the victim. While-engaged in this a
musement, some of the boys playfully
placed the strap, tiled as a rope, around
-the neck of young Alburger, and proceed
ed to dravi him from the ground by means
of a crank used for hanging meat. By
some unfortunate chance the strap tight
ened. around his neck, while his feet did
not t ouch the ground, and he was-hung in
earnest. His companions becoming fright
ed, not attempt to take or cut him down,
but called for the inmates of the house.—
Some of the women made their appear
ante,-who cried for help, and brought a
passer-by to the assistance of the unfortu
nate youth. lie was cut down After hav
ing — hung two minutes. All possible
means were at once taken for his
.recoy
ery.- Five physicians were ill attendance,
but-' their -united exertions failed to re
store him. After suffering much agony,
he expired at two o'clock on Wednesday.
Several dead mew were 'drafted one
town in Schuylkill county, and the Carbon
dale Advance says:
The enrollment was not taken regularly
in the'third and fourth wards in 'our,.city,
consequently the draft has cut up some
queer antics. Among those ;drafted are :
Charles TuOlan, who has been lying peace
fully in. his grava for some years; a man
named Finnigan, who %vas drowned LIM.
A pring ; and also . a Mr. Doudican, aged
abont 75 years, whose enfeebled - limbs can
scarcely support•his tottering frame. It
has been suggested, by 'a profane friend,
that. the President call a special resurrec

THE MASSACRE COMMENCED.
, .
- It was on' the mo rning of
. the 23hi of
August,'l79l, just before day i that a,gen
-eral . alarm add consternation 'spread
throughout-the towns of the 'Cape. ' The
inhabitants were called- from their 'IR&
by persons who regorted that all the
negro slaves in the several neighboring
parishes had revolted, and were at that
moment carrying death - and 'detiolation
over the adjoining . large and rbeautiful
plain to the north. , . The'Govern or and
tnost"of the military officers on duty as-.
genibled-together, but the 'repris• were so
t
confused and contradictory as tO - gain bat
little credit. ' As daylight began. to ,break,
the sudden mid successive arrival, 'with
ghastly countenances, oPperisons who had
with 'difficulty escaped . the massacre,. and
flown to the town for protection, brought
a dreadful confirmation of the fatal tidings:
The rebellion first broke out on a plan
tation called - Noe, in the . parish of Aeln,
nine miles only from the city. Twelve or
fourteen of "the ringleaders,. about the
middle of the night, proceeded to the
refinery or sugar-house, and - seized :on a
man,- the irefiner's apprenthie; dragged
him to the front of the dwelling house,
and there lie Wed him into pieces with
thei vett thisseS ; his Screams' bionght: but
the overseer, whom-they instantly shot.
The-rebels now found their way inte the
apartment - 4)f the refliter, and massacred
him in his bed. A young man lying
sick in . 111 S ellanthq was left apparently
dowl:,,f th... , womid inflicted by their! eut
,,s,es _ He. had strength enough, however

the horrors he liad witnessed. He rePort
ed that all the 'whites of the estate which
he had left were murdered,. ereept !only.

elled to accompany them , on the idea thin,
they might Stand in neeiof his profeision

enee the - persons to whom - it. was com
municated iinmediately sought their safety
in fliolit. •i
The revolters(Consisting now of all the,
slaves belonging to that plantation)pr'ocee-.
del to the houSe of Mr. Clerfient, by
whose negroes ,they were immediately
joined, and , both he and his' 'refiner were
massacred. The murd s erex of Mr. Clement
was his own postillioa,(coachmen,) amen
to whom he had always shown great
kindness. The Other white people' 'on
this estate contrived to make their'escape.
•At this juncture the . negroes on estate
oCM. Faville, a few miles distant, likewise
rose and murdered five white persons,
I -.-one of whom. (the attorney 'for the es- 1
tate) had a wife and three daughters.
These unfortunate women, while
ing for mercy ofthe savages on their knees,
beheld their husband and fattier Murdered
before their faces. ~For themselves ,they'
were_ devoted. to .amore horrid- fate
and were carried away captives by the
assassins.
The approach: of daylight served dnly,
to discover the sights'of horror. -It was
now.apparent that the negroes of all the
estates in the. plain acted in- concert, and ,
a general massacre of the whites took
place in every quarter. On some few es
tates'indeed, the lives of the women were
spared ; but they were. - reserved only to
gratify the'-bratal appetites. of the ruffians,
and it-is shocking to relate - that many of
them suffered violation on the dead bodies
of their husbands and fathers !
