FROM THE PREFACE "My task has led me over a vast field. • IniniellY tracing, from its inception in this hemisphere, the rise and progress of the great wrong which still threatens the life of the nation, I have followed the fortunes of a vast multitude, equal in number to the population, loyal' and disloyal; black and white, of these United States. I have sketched, by the tight of authentic docu ments, the dismal history of that multitude through three centuries and a half; seeking out their represen tatives, and inquiring into the numbers and condition of these at the present day. In so doing I have arrived at conclusions which, to those who have never looked closely into the subject, may seem too marvellous for belief. * • * * * > • . • * * "Finally after after having traced the connection of the twolaces in the past, and set forth the duty of one race toward • the other in the present, I have sought to look forward and inquire how. they are likely, when-both shall be free, to live together in the future; whether we shall have a race among us unwilling or unable to sup port itself; whether admixture of the races, both being free. is probable or. desirable; whether, without ad.- niisture,The reciprocal social influence of the races on each otber promises good or evil; what are the chances rihat a base prejudice of race shall diminish and distip;- pear; and lastly, whether, in case the colored - man shall outlive that prejudice, disgraceful to us and de pressing to him, and shall be clothed by law with the same rights in search of which we sought this Western World, there will be anything in connection with his future in these United States to excite regret or inspire apprehension." • 111.

From that correspenderice it. appeared that, though the Confederate authorities had abandoned their indubitable eight to demand a fulfilment of the cartel,and had accepted the proposal of the Yan kee authorities to exchange man for man and officer for ofileir e without :paroling' the excess on either side, the latter 'had -permitted , nearly a month to elapse without to-king any notice oi. Colonel Ould's communication informing them of sack acceptance. It was only .when this fact was officially laid before the people of ,the two Governments that the Yan kees' feltethe necessity 'of making. any response, and, therefore; Butler the Beast, among the Most astute and artful as well as unprincipled of their disputants, and one who, being outlewed by this Government, might safely calculate ara Lot being answered or noticed, was set .to the work of raistra ing the simple facts as they appear .in the correspondence referred to, and breaking the force with - which. they Would impress 'the Yankee mind. Butler- the Beast; thereforeefrom theFlateavenue Hotel, NeetYork, writes 'a communication for the New Yorlf . Tentes, whichovith characteristic impu dence; he - addresses to Colonel Ould. The gist of the letter IS tlie.followinge inquiry made of Colonel 0. : "To aveld - aleposeible-misapprehension . or mistake hefeafter e etease Your offer now, will , you. now say whether ypueznean by.

Ira t hi s; be so, and you , are ' so willing to. exchaege these colored men claimed as slaves, and you will swefficialle Inform the Government of the United " States; then, as I'ant instructed, a principal difficulty in effecting exchanges will be re -moved." . Observe, the artful . Beast • does not say that even then the exchange.will be. resumed, He veryearefilly leaveg a leg to hang other objections upet. " One principal difficulty will be removed," but how many others will be started*? What rea son, oh, most cunning of Beasts,. is not good.onough for not doing a ,thing predetermined not to be dote 1 . • - , . ~ After a good deal of 'cant about the duty ' of pro tecting theta whefight beneath the folds, of "the national fitig," Butler, the Beast, indulges in some lawyer's learning as to the status of prpperty seized in war. , The ownership, he says, passes from the loser to the. captor. e Therefore if we (Beast lo gutter) "•obtain possession of that species 'of pro perty known to the laws of the insurrectionary States as slaves, why should there be any doubt that that property, like any other, rests in the United States I' , The reason why there should be any doubt is, most logical Beast, that you do not' obtain possession of them in any way recognized as lawful by the code of war, and therefore you do not acquire the rights which that code confers. You steal them for, the most part, and 1%7 ceny . never 'confers title. Moreover, if our laws treat slaves as property, yours do not, and, therefore no ownership passes to you, for you have no law that confers or protects such ownership. Therefore,it is unusually absurd in you, Beast though you be, and entitled to be absurd, to say, as you do, " Slaves being captured by us, and tho right of s ereporty in them vested in us, that right of property 'has been disposed of by us by manumit ting there, as has always been the acicnowlerased right of the owner to do to hisalave.e Bat you and your Government are net, and cannot be, the owners of slaver!. and therefore you are without the jus dis ponendi, and have nothing to manumit. The slave remains for the time beingesimply outset' the posses. sion of his lawful owner, and the resumption of pos• session by,the owner revives all his rights of owner ship. Yon are the harborer of a runaway or the hider of stolen property, bah of which offences are provided for by the criminal code but not recog nized by the laws of war as conferring any benefit. Your own comparison of ".a drove of Confederate mules of a herd of cattle, which wander or run across the Confederate lines into the lines of the I United States army," shows the 'fallacy of your ar gument, for if you were to undertake to remit those mules or cattle to the freedom of the prairies, to emancipate them and declare them forever exempt frcim the right of mauls. assert any rightist' property in them, did you suppose that - such " manumission" would have any effect if we were to recapture them? But enough'of Butler the Beast !—Richntend Whig. Sawene oreerre Seruar.—elepbistophiles Seward has been at homeeand . has delivered one of his pe culiar oracular diesoursci. After telling his audi ence that it it 'pleasan t to have a grand result—such as Sherman's entrance into Atlanta at fine s and the particulars • to" come afterwards, he compares the (Jontederate States'—evhiek he terms " tharebeillous district"—to an .egg which "presents equarresista ance on its whole surface. • But If-you could. break . the shell at either of the two . ends. Richmond and Atlanta, theavtiole must crumble to pieces. While Sherman under Grant has 'been striking the big end, Meade under Grant has been striking just as hard blowa •ution the lesser end. The whole,shell will now be easily crushed, for it •has grown brittle with the exhaustion of vitality, within .

So much for Mr. Seward's rhetoric. A little more adroit . use of words, however, is made •by this man elsewhere in this discourse. Prating quite shallowly, as if he held the intelli gence of his hoarera in - very low appreciation, he assumes that, the only question between' the South ern and Northern States originally was, whether one man or another, Bre.ekinridge, Bell, or Douglae; on one aide, and Lincoln on the other, should sit in the Presidential chair for four years. Of course, Seward knows well enough why the , people of the South determined that Lincoln, ,elected by a sec- Mimi party, :because of sectional sentiments and known hostility to the South "should never rule over them • and he knowa i that t was the attempt of Lincoln to enforce. a rule, resisted by them be cause of the policy he was pledged to carry out, that led to war, and no ' such rivalry of ambitious dynasties as •he would make it. Bat it .seems to have occurred to Seward . that even the people heevas addressing ,• might remember that. a "disputed succession" grows necessarily out of a contest for rulership in one and the same Govern ment, two or more competing aspirants contending as to which shall hold .the sceptre in , a particular realm, while here there is no claim set up by any Southern man to rule over the people of the United States,• and no effort made to etect•Lincoln froni the seat to which the people of his Government elevated him. To reconcile• this incongruity, Ste ward invents a theory. He says : "Nothing is more. certain than that either the United States and their c onstitutional P resident, or the so-called Confederate States and their usurping President, must rule with in the limits of the Republic." We hate heard the opinion expressed that the incapacity of the Yankee for managing affairs of state might, at some future day, devolve - upon us the duty, in' - the interest of humanity, of assuming cobtrol of his government, just as the incapacity of the, Mexicans for empire has furnished to Louis Napoleon an excuse for sup plying them with a ruler, and dictating their form of government; but the idea that President Davis, or any one else in this Confederacy, is fighting for the loathsome task of ruling Yankees, is so prepos terous that no man with less "cheek" than Seward would have ventured to give utterance to it. So - P far from this - being true, we ere are with might and main, asrometheus never•struggied, to be rid of the vulture that preyed upon his liver, nor Nessus to be freed from the shirt that set his blood on fire, to be delivered of the Yankee altogether. Even as subject or slave we revolt at the thought of having anything to do with him:a/bide. .•- •• • . . THE NEWS—AFFAIRS AT THE' VARIOUS 'MILITARY CENTRES.' 'The Macon Telegraph Slays that both armies in and near Atlanta are too thoroughly exhausted to renew the fighting-for the present. The reports of our losses in the recent engagements are gross exagge rations. Our total loss in killed, wounded, and prisoners, will not exceed fbur thousand men, while that of the enemy is said to be not less than five to our one. •An officer; who was in all the engage ments, reports that the Federals were ten lines of battle' deep in some' places, and every tune they charged our lilies it was only to be slaughtered like sheep. Hardee's corps is said to have fought with the most uneliching determination, and only retired. when the enemy commenced firing on its flanks. In the retreat we were cerapelled to' abandon several pieces of artillery, not having any horses to haul them. .The troops, however, are as defiant as ever. The reports of their being demoralized are posi tively false. It Is true they look for assistance, and if this is granted to them they are confident of being able, not only to prevent Sherman from advanclng any further, but to rout his army, and either force him to evacuate Atlanta., or to permit himself to be shut up in, the city without any prospect of relief: We trust the Government will send every available man to reinforce General Hood. It is of the greatest importance that Atlanta shall be recovered from the • enemy, and his campaign defeated, and this can be done if a proper activity and sound policy are ob served. WHaBLER'S'RAID ON SEIEnNANIS 003/74IITNICA, TIONS—TRE TUNERL AT TUNNEL HILL BLOWN UP. —The Macon Telegraph of the 6th has fail accounts of the operations of the rebel cavalry in the rear of Sherman on the State road. It appears that when Wheeler first reached Dalton and turned off in the direction of Cleveland, he ordered Generalsalartin, commanding one of the cavalry divisions, to blow up the tunnel at Tunnel Hill. • This order was not obeyed, nor did General Wheeler hear of it• until ! Martin's division had left •the road and formed a junction with the main body of our forces. —Are soon, however, as it was ascertained that the order had notabeen carried into effect, General Martin was placed under arrest and sentback to Atlanta, and a picked body of men was detached from the com mand and- sent to, the State road with positive or ders to destroy the tunnel it all arazards, as well as to remain in the vicinity of the road and 'cap ture all trains passing, destroy the' track, culverts, and trestle work, and keep Sherman's communi cations cut. On Wednesday last, the courier re porta, our cavalry carried out, these orders. The es t e before they, captured three trains laden with ammunition and stores. The stores were - promptly destroyed with the trains, but the oars laden with ammunition were run back to the tunnel and placed inside of it. Both sides of the -tunnel were closed up with rooks and dirt, after the owder had been arranged inside, and everything be ing prepared, the train was fired, and in a few seconds the tonne/ was a mass of ruins! The Telegraph's informant states that the courier reports its destruction as being come plete. Ties tunnel is now a perfect wreck, and will take at least two months of hard labor to rebuild. . At last accounts our cavalry were still at work tearing up the road, and it .was believed that they could not be (bleep off except by a very large force, which will doubtless be sent against them, no iv that Atlanta has ranee. If this report be true—and it is not impossible--there is, Bays the Telegraph, a e•lim -flier callow for'our armsyet. It is stated that Sher man has but few trains of cars south of the tunnel, 'end, if these can lie captured by our cavalry;he will then he unable to transport his provisions to Atlanta. . —Richmond.

They crossed at Ashby's Gap, arid probably passed.down near the base of the Blue Ridge to their stronghold at Harper's Ferry. THE CANAL AT DUTCH (j - AP, 11.EARk PETURS- . HuP.C.—A correspondent of the' Savannah Republi can says that only a small force of the enemy now occupy the strong, fortifiCatioris across Dutch Gap, north side of the .1 ames, amoug 4 which the: ebon skins of Ferrero's " braves". are seen along the picket lines, tacitly acknowledging that negro sol diers are only fit to be placed undercoirer of the ~,eunboats. Among them are - seen a sufficient num ber of whites "to guard the guard," all purporting to be under the command of Foster. Across the river Butler still holds his line pear:Bermuda Hun dred. His canal; which is to cut off enough of James river to put him seven miles nearer liich mond, progresses, so the 'Yankee papers say, - very, finely, but we venture to assert never was any canal pushed ahead "very finely" 'under' more difficul ties. On a high hill, southwest:Of this progiessive work, is what Is known as •Howlett's - battery, erected by • Confederate esgineer i vand. containing some distressingly . heavy guisartigatLare manned by Confederate artillerists, who' . .t.ae a very wanton delight in constently;•dayand• night, casting from these guns 'heavy explosive 'bodies of iron into this very work. What, is worse,. the very spot where workmen are seen becoines a mark for their mali cious practice. Afew Words will.tieseribe how the WO& HS conducted: . One mau witehes all the while;' and when the cloud'Of white sm.gke.tiees from How lett's battery, he jumps into .hitshole with a cry of "look out !" This cry is generallYdisobeyed to the letter, as every orie;to *a man, looks 'nimbi& he hardly does .befofe, down comes the crushing shell .directly in the viiry excavation ,he vacates. The explosion over, back the working party goes to the picks and spades, and the man to the look.out. The number of dodges requisite. to complete a day's work, and the time•occnpied in so doing, raises the munition whether 'the working party earn their ra tions for the work or the dodging that is done. General McClellan. To the Editor of Vie I,rese . , Sin: I am a Democrat, and every member of' my family has ever been, since the days of the first • formation of the party under *Jefferson. That fa mily have done some 'service to the State; from the period of the ReVolution to the present time, and are still anxious for its prosperity and the fulfilment of its glorious destiny. It may seem strange that, with this frank avowal, I sliould address :you, who are of counter political principles to those which I profess. t The reason which influences me will be found in the following plain statement, and to it I call the attention of even. honest and independent citizen who professes the same creed with myself, In that creed he will firid that the unrestrained expression of opinion as to men and their public acts is positively guaran teed to all who profess and entertainite dogmas— that principles and not men is the cardinal maxim of its votaries. Long before Monroe enunciated it: it was the motto of the pazty,,aaad has ever been the cloudy pillar by day and the fiery beacon by night for their guldanceand direction. Let dastards and traitors, who month Democracy for their personal interests, repudiate the maxim, yet it ;will ever re main as a polar star to guide, and, if faithfully ad hered to, will insure success to any band that shall honestly follow its teachings. A few days since, I wrote an article for a Demo eratic journal of this city, which contained an allusion to the rate Chicago Convention that nomi- : nated General McClellan for the Presidency. . It. contained my candid views of the error committed. by that body, honestly but respectfully, in respect:- to the 'candidate of their choice. It was therein: stated that this, conclave of professed leaders had committed a grave mistake as to the nomination, and that defeat, if persisted in, was inevitable, since the nominee was as guilty of imputed wrongs as the present Executive, and the charge was accompanied by the folleating letters of McClellan, Writtaii i ihen commanding the Army of the Pcitomac. Man didly inquired, in the above article, where was the ;consistency of men, claiming some share of honesty, in thus attempting to palm upon unsophisticated voters, and asking- their support, in individual' who; from all his political antecedents and previous political associations, as well as from certain public acts, was most vulnerable. Without claiming the honor of a prophet, or even the son of a prophet, I predicted his defeat, and offered .an epitaph Upon his political death. The communication . contained - -atquery. to this -effect-: i. err-IYo-yecrsuppqe are to decide the 'election are IS igaora t, so when 'itultilled, as not to make inquiriesi stiit the.lol- • lowing belbre giving their suffrage !I Where, is, ' and in what consists, the difference letween Mr. • Lincoln and McClellan? The former is acoused'Of: arbitrary arrests, and the nullifying of the liabeei• corpus act, by his political opponents' Whether • ' , true or not, it matters little towards the argument. Is not General McClellan equally culpable• in the very same category I If Mx. Lincoln rioted pro-, 'party, why seek a. change, not in principles, but in mere men ? If, however, he was wrong, was not General MeOlellan equally so ; and are we not en titled to the liberty of asking the plain question, Can two wrongs make one right ] The article was declined by the editor, and I am thus obliged to ask the favor of using your columns in doing all that my , humble abilities will allow in my attempts to defeat the election of one whose only . recommendation is that he is a soldier! There was but one—Washington—who ever filled the Execu tive station with advantage to his country, and who wonderfully united the civil and military functions to a Successful administration of national affairs.

I would be glad to have you advise-me frequently of your ar rangements in.regard to, this very important mat ter.. If it is successfully Carried out, it will go far to wards breaking the backbone of the rebellion.

The above letter, alluding to the arrest - of 'certain individuals, refers to the members elect of the Mary land Legislature of 1861, as does also the following.

Boars AnD SHoEs.—There has been rather' more activity the past week ; dealers from the interior of Pennsylvania having made their appearance in the market, in addition .to those who were previously here from Kansas, Nebraska, Indiana, and Ohio, but trade continues duller with the jobbers' than is usual at this season of •the- year. Seteral calises have combined to produce this state of backward ness, such as politicalmatters;the draft, 'Ste. The high prices of goods also has a tendency to keep back trade. There have been but few* dealers•ta the market yet irtm Illinois., Wisconsin,- and lowa. With larger representations of dealers from those points, a more active trade is looked for.. The' re- striations on trade with the Southwestern States is about being removed, which will also add to the, ac tivity of the market. There have been a few pur chasers, and some orders from that quarter in the market during the week. With' manufacturers trade -continues moderately .active; the same causes producing like resultawith them as with the jobbers. . The fall in gold during- the week has also had Its influence in checking trade, some dealere thinking goods will be. lower, and those dealers from the West who traffic. in miscellaneous goods are look ing, for a decline In Boots and Shoes as well as Dry Goods;', In' this they. are likely •te . be -mistaken. Nest kinds of stook from which boots and shoes are made continue high; and prices have not been as high for them as fer .many other kinds „ef. goods. There has been•no speculative feeling, but the rise has been moderate and steady, and there is not the same margin for a decline in prices as in some other epode. The same remarks will apply to tlie jobbers, who are now tolding'their goods with the usual firmness, knowing they cannot be replaced; from Eastern markets at lower prices than they are now offering them at. The city retail trade for fall goods is Increasing, and those manufacturers who, have most' of • that trade are quite busy. The auc tion sales the past week have been well attended, and the prices realized have been quite satisfactory to the sellers.—Reporter. • • - New York Markets, Sept. 16.
