PIRATK Oft rRlftTCRR.
Pirate or privateer, Confederate or eorsalr,
be steamer Nashville, now lying I o Month
sropton waters, in a hideous blemish upon oar
t loeteeuth century of civilization. A wild
I east or a turd of pre; ii en object of dread
but cot nf obhorreiice. Tbs Nashville it
both a floating: deo of brutalized human
being, making deslru.-tion the immediate
business of their live the destruction or
unarmed end unoffending thips, carrying oo a
peacolul Ir iftio npnn the. common highway ot
liatiou". If Capt.. Fegrani bold a cor,. mil
sioc or a letter of marque, the law uf toatinnj
to oor abame be it laid mill bar nothing
to say to bim, bot tbe moral i'n rf mankind
will eliil pronounce bis schie'ement an
outrage no bumaoity. Jf be dees not carry
either of those documents, the Ijw of England
will adjudge him guilty of a vert specific
effeoce, according to the (no's stated against
him and remit him to thy authorities of tbe
nation wbicb bo tfisgrac'S to be dealt with
according to its lave, )n either case wo
repeat, he baa dons a deed which should
make the ears of all men to tingle, and bring
to a speed; coacl usion the abominable system
of making war at sea opon the persons and
property of peaceful citizen.
Nothing can tie more barbarous than tbe
distinction recognized by the usage uf war
between privato property on land and no
water. Except In the actual presence of the
enemy, or in case of a town takeo by storm
the boaeg sod goods of oon-comoaluDts arc
resnr-cted.
Yet this it the very letter of instructions
given to naval officers. They are bidden to
eeize or siufe every vessel carrying tbe enemy's
Uag.ro matter what ber size, character or
occupation. The richest argosy and the
humblest lis bin g smack are alike obnoxious
to tbis horrible dictum ; though the one
answers ouly to a princely mansion and tbe
other to a poa sant'e cottage. Tbey are no
more instrutne ots of warfare than if they were
hauled ashore aud embedded in tbe mud.
There is exactly tbe same difference between
a ship of war and a merchant ship as between
a (orlress and an ooarmed dwelling. A
buttery is a battery, whether BBbore or afloat.,
aud is a lawful object of destruction, because
designed to destroy. Bot a house is no less
house for being fitted with keel end rigging,
It is t ho occupation of the inhabitants, out
the sbape of tbe structure, that should expose
to or exempt from the liabilities of warfare.
Those obviously just and humans consider
ations were urged at the Paris Congress of
13.")6. They so far prevailed tbat it was
agreed to recommend the abandonment by
all Powers of the right to issue letters elf
marque. The United States Government
replied that by assenting to this proposal they
would be placing their own extensive tner
cantile marine at tbe mercy of Governments
possessing a far larger arma moot. But they
oflered a couoter proposition, equally iu tbe
interests of all commercial nations viz : tbat
private property at sea, not being contraband
of war, should be entirely exempt from cap
ture. No such comprehensive or bumaue
idea bad ever emanated from a European
Government. It was worthy rather of a
Peace Congress than cf a conference of
diplomatists. It would have shorn wur of
bn'if its its borrers, and have left exposed to
tbe sword ouly those who choose to take the
sword. It was welcomed by the Time, as an
. organ of the commercial classes, with prompt
cordiality. The proposal was described in
these perspicuous and forcible words :
now a question tor tne umiiy ot nations to
- m .. ... .
d-cide whether a cargo of sugar on the
Atlantic is as sacred es the same articles
when stored in tho warehouse of a captured
port." But tbe Times is also the organ of a
political clique, under the influence of which
it soon decided in the negative the qiestiou
it had stated in a sbape to cummuud the
tcBent of every reasonable being.
Acting in secrecy, and on its own irrerpon
siblo caprices, the Government of Lord
Paluierslnn refused tbe proposition submitted
to it by the American Minister. Tbe opinion
cf tha other European powers on such a
question was comparatively unimportant.
Privateering fa, therefore., still permitted by
tiie law of cations, aad private property still
exposed to capture or destruction on the
otien seas. But for this gross abuse of its
executive powers by the British Government
the crew of the Harvey Birch would buve
been as safo under the flag of tho United
States asunder the flag of FraDce or of
Great Britain. Commander' PJgram would
have hil no shadow of authority for tbe
pursuit of bis ruffianly vocation. The atrocity
of which he is stated to have been guilty
would have been as much a violation of public
law as of public morals, and bo would have
been chased from the seas as a tiger is hunted
to the jurgla. We can bardly hope that tbe
Uoited States Government would be williog
to re-open, while at actual war, tbe question
which was so bluntly closed by our owo
Cabinet under very different circumstances.

GOVERNOR LETdlKR'a HCttAOt.
The Message of tbe rebel Governor ef Vir
ginia, contains some curious facts and state,
ments. Tbe Governor fays they are not re
posible for the war, and contends that tbey
bave been victorious in every conflict, la
regard to the deration of the war, be says l
"It is not with is to determine whether this
warsballbeof loog or short duration. We
have decided, however, that it cannot termi
nate until our enemies shall recognise fully
and unconditionally tbe independence of Ibe
Southern Confederacy. Whatever ofmeo or
money is needed to work out tbe result will
be cheerfully furnished. There can be and
there will be cheerfully furnished. There can
be and there will be no compromise. We
can never ngaip live in harmony and peace
aoder the same government. We can never
entertain friendly feelings for a people who
have ruthlessly shed Southern blood npon
Southern soil iu eo execrable a war, Tbey
huveshowo themselves onr "or&t enemies,
and such we hold them to be. Tbe separa
tion that bas takeo pluce has been signalized
in blood, aud it ought to be, and 1 trust will
be, a permanent separation. Kt-aonstruction
is not desirable, and eveu if it were, it is now
o impossibility."
Notwithstanding the eagerness of tbe Chi
valry of Virginia for the fight, they are evi
dently tired of that kind or sport on their soil,
and tbe Governor thinks that the banks of
tbe Susquehanna would afford better fighting
ground than tbe Potomac,, and the sooner it
is removed there tbe better for Virginia and
the Confederacy. The Governor therefore
proceeds to say:
"It is oor duty, therefore, to devote all
our energies to a vigorous prosecution of the
war. Everything must be done that vigilance
and fidelity require, and nothing left undone
that patriotism and prudence suggest aa ne
cessary lor our protection against actual and
contemplated sggressious and encroachments
upon our rights. No hesitating or doubtful
policy will answer when armies are in the
field. Nor will it do to act alone oo the de
fensive. The Susquehanna is a better tight
ing line for us than tbe Potomac, and the
sooner the war is pushed forward to that lioe
the better fur Virgiuie and the Southern
Confederacy. To tout line it must go if we
would save MuryUud. Let our actions show
to her people that we feel for their condition,
and that we intend to aid them in effecting
their deliverance from the tyranny that now
oppresses them, and thousands will welcome
us to their Stato aud Knek to tbe standard of
the Southern Confederacy, with a resolution
to plant tbat flag firmly opon her soil, or die
iu the attempt. This war will not end until
we show tbe Northern people the diil'erenue.
between invading aud being invaded."
Ibe Governor admits, that Virginia had
been, for some time past, 'preparing for tbis
rebellion. The capture of the Navy Yard at
Norfolk supplied them witb heavy gnus. lie
regrets tbey were not able to capture Fortress
Monroe, and says :
"It is to be regretted that Fortress Monroe
is not in our possession : that it was not as
easily captured as the Navy Yard and Har
per's Furry. As far back as the 8th of Janu
ary lust. 1 consulted with a gentleman whose
position enabled him to know the strength
ol that fortress, and whose experience in mili
tary matters enabled him to term an opinion
as to the number of men that would be re
quired to capture it. He represented it to be
one of the strongest fort Bcaiioos ia the world
and expressed his doubts whether it could be
taken, unless assailed by water as well as by
land, aud simultaneously, lie staled empba
tically aud distinctly, that with the force then
in the fortress, it would be useless to uttempl
its capture without a largo force, thoroughly
equipped and well appointed. At no time
previous to the secession ol Virgin'n uad we
a military organization sufficient to justify en
attempt to lake it, and events since that
occurrence demonstrate very clearly that with
our military organization since, mid now exist
ing, it has not beeo deemed prudent to make
Iho attempt."
Tbe Governor is determined to conquer
Western Virginia, whose conduct bo thinks
has been most "unnatural, disgraceful aud
treasonable," aud proceeds to say.
'The northwestern portioo of Virginia
most not be abandoned aod surrendered to
the traitor residents and the mercenary sol
diery who now occupy it. We owe it to those
noble aod generous men who have stood by
us throughout this greut struggle, who have
sacrificed their ail in their devution to Virgi
nia and tbe South, who are now refugees,
scattered here cod there throughout the loyal
portions of tbe Commonwealth, far removed
from all tbe eodearmeuts aud comforls of
binie, aud family aud friends. We must re
store those men to their home ; we must re-post-ess
this country, aud bring it again under
subjugation to the laws cf Virginia. The
Commonwealth must nut be dismembered
When this war ends, she must be what she
was when it was iuaugurated. Tbe Ohio river
was the western bouneary theu, and it must
coctinue to be ber boundary."

Our notice ol the Ox-Roast, which certainly
was not intended to stir up the ire of any one, did
not seem to sit well upon the stomach of our
Cassiea like neighbor of the democrat." A
morbid or diseased imagination ia ever apt to be,
not only suspicious, but of seeing in others the
very things that might be, with much truth, laid
at their own door. We can -well a (Tor J, in this
community, to bear the alang of one who, not
many months since, in his paper, appeuled to
the Press -'To have the honesty to tell iheir fead.
era the truth, and do Ex-Secretary Floyd the jus
tice to publish his Innocence." From what
"reservoir of public opinion" do you intend to
establish the innocence of that traitorous
thief! No charge of "taie stretching" will re-
litre you from this fact, ncighlwr Purely, it will
stick to you like tbe poisoned shirt of Nessu! We
fear that Floyd a innocence, like your boasted de
mocracy, ia ao deeply imbedded in his bones that
it will never be apparent.

' C3T That well meaning but unpractical and
deluded philanthropist, Gerrit Smith, thus la
ments the weakness of President Lincoln's
reverence for tbe Constitution. Between such
extremists as our Breckinridge editors and
ultra abolitionists like Smith, tbe President
would have a hard time of it.
"President Lincoln ia a man of understand
ing and of honest intentions ; and why he bas
not ere this ended the war and saved the
country is simply because he is a worshiper of
toe Uooslilution, and luels (but he can love
and honor and serve and save the country only
through the Constitution. Every breach marie
in the Constitution is iu his eye a breach made
in the country ,-' and with bim the alarming
prospect of a lost Constitution is all one with
the alarming prospect of a lost country. But
the good mou cannot help it. For how rare is
ho who is able to surmount bis education !
And the President was educated to worship
the Constitution. This education hampers
mm HI every step, with all bis heart would
he save the country, but bis reverence for the
Constitution will not let bun."

the next fiscal year are computed fork force
of 500,000 men. They bave beeo reduced to
tbe lowest possible amount consistent witb tbe
public interests, aod are based opoo a strictly
economical administration of tbe various
branches of the Departeaeot.
Tbe appropriations toeover deficiencies are
rendered necessary by tbe axeess of tbe force
io Ike Gold over tbat epon which the estimates
were fouodad, aod by extraordinary peodi
tares connected witb tbe employment aad die
charge of the Three) Jlotitrm Contingent.
Aa turn of very heavy expanse is the large
Bouotaj fvrce wbicb bai ca orgioirsd,
equipped, ed made available since the called
session or Congress, aud which was not compii- 1
for io the estimate. While an locreasn f
cavalry was oudoublpdlj necessary, it h" :
reached numerical strength more then ade
quate to tbe wants of tbe service. As it can
only be maintained at a great cost, measures
will be takeo for lis gradual reduction.
in organising our steal army, 1 was enec-
tivply aided by the loyal Governors of tha dif
ferent ntatPS, and I cbeei hilly acknowledge
the prompt patriotism with which they re
sponded to the call of this Department.
Concsess, during its extra session, autho
rized the army to be iucresaerl by tbe accept
ance of a volunteer force of 500,000 men, and
made an appropriation of five hundred mil
lions or dollars for its support. A call Tor the
troops was immediately made j but so nnmp
rons were the offers that it was foanrl difficult
to discriminate io the choice, where the patri
otism of the people iiemanded that there
should be no restrictions upon enlistment.
Every portino of the community was anxtous
that it should be represented iu a cause that
appealed to the noblest Impulses of nor people,
Jiy referpnee to the records ot the revolu
tion it will be seen that Massachusetts, with a
population of 350.000, bad at one iime, 50,
(100 troops in tbe field, or over one sixtb of ber
entire people a force greatly exceeding tbe
whole number of troops furnished by all the
Southern States during tbat war. Should the
present loyal States furnish troops In like pro
portion, wbicb would undoubtedly be the case
shonld any emergency demand il, the Govern
ment could promptly put into tbe held an ar
my of over three millions.
It givps me great satisfaction to refer to the
creditable degree of discipline of our troops,
most of whom were, but a short time since, en
gaged in tbe pursuits of peace. Tbey are rap
idly attaining an efficiency which cannot fail to
bring success to our arms. Officers and men
alike evince, an earnest desire to accomplish
themselves in every duty of the camp and
Geld, and the various corps ere animated by ao
emulation to exceed eacb other in soldierly
qualities.
The conspiracy against the Government ex
tended over on area of 733.144 square miles,
possessing a const line of 3,523 miles, end a
shore line of 25.414 miles, with an iuterior
buuodury line of 7,031 miles in length. Tbis
conspiracy stripped us of arms and munitions,
and scattered our oavy to the most distant
quarters of the globe. Tbe eflort to restore
the Union, which tbe Government entered nc
in April last, was the most gigantic endeavor
in the history of civil war. The interval of
seven months has been spent In preparation.
Tbe history of this rebellion, io common
with all others, for obvious causes, records the
first successes in favor of tbe insurgents. Tbe
disaster of Hull Itun was but the natural con
sequence of the premature advance of our
brnve but undisciplined troops, which the Im
patience of the country demanded. Tbe be
trayal also or our movements by traitors in
our midst enabled tbe rebels to choose and
entrecch their position and by a reinforcement
in great strength, at the moment of victory,
to snatch it from our grasp. This reverse,
however, gave no discouragement to onr gal
hint people; tbey have crowded into our
ranks, and although lnre numbers have been
necessarily rHccted, a mighty urmy in invinci
hie array stands eager to precipitate itself
opon the foe. The check Shut we have receiv
ed npon tho Potomac has, therofore, but post
poned the campaign lor a few months. The
other successes of the rebels, though dearly
won, were mere affairs, with no important or
permanent advantages. The possession or
Western Virginia, und the occupation of Hut
teras and Beaufort, bave nobly redeemed oar
transient reverses.
The geographical position of tbe metropolis
of tbe nation, menaced by the rebels, und re
quired In be dtfended by thousands of our
troops, induces me to suggest for considera
tion tbe propriety and expediency of a recon
struction or the boundaries or the States of
Delaware, Murylund and Virginia. Wisdom
aud true statesmanship would dictate that the
seat of the National Government, for all time
to come, should be placed beyond reasonable
danger of seizure by enemies within, as well as
by t'oea without, lly agreement between the
States named, such as was effected, for eimi
lur purposes, by Michigan and Ohio, and by
Missouri end Iowa, their boundaries coulJ be
so chanced as to render the capital more re
mote thon ot present from the influence of
State Guverutneuts which have arrayed io re
bellion against the Federal authority.
To this end, the limits of Virginia might be
so altered es to make her boundaries consist
of the Blue llidge on Ibe east, und Pennsylva
nia on the north, leaving those oo the south
and west as nt present. Hy this arrangement,
two cnuntieB of Maryland (Alleghany and
Washington) would ba transferred to the ju
risdiction of Virginia. All that portion of
Virginia which lies between the Blue liidgo
and Chesapeake Bay could then be 8.1. led to
Maryland, while that portion of the peninsula
between the waters of the Chesapeake and the
Atlantic, now jointly held ty Murylund and
Virginia, could ba incorporated into the State
of Delaware. A reference to the map will
show that these are great natural boundaries,
which, for all time to come, would servo to
mark the limits or these States.
In this connection, it wnnld be the part of
wisdom to reaunex to tbe District of Colum
bia that portion ol its original limits which, by
act nf Congress, was retroceded to the Slate
of Vitginia.
It is already a grave question, what shall be
done with those slaves w ho are abandoned hy
their owners on the advance of our troops into
Southern territory, as at Beaufort district in
South Carolina T The number left within our
control at that point is very considerable, and
similarcases will probably occur. What shall
be done with them ? Can we afford to send
them forward to their masters, to be by them
armed against us or used in producing supplies
to sustain the rebellion T Their labor may be
useful to us. Withheld from the enemy it
lessens bis military resources, end withholding
tbem has no tendency to induce the horrors of
insurrection even in the rebel communities.
Tbey constitute a military resource, and being
such, that tbey should not be turned over to
Ibe enemy ia too plain to discuss. Wbv de
prive him of supplies by a blockade, and vol
untarily give him men to produce supplies?
The disposition to be made of tbe slaves of re
bels after tbe close of the war, can be safely
left to the wisdom and patriotism of Congress.
The representatives of tbe people will unques
tionably secure to the loyal slave holders every
right to wbicb they are entitled under tbe
Constitution of the country.
