' • ' i|/ : -' i | -;-r '.-.Si* M W I , :i ' -1 In a private letter received from a friend in the 100th Regt. of Penn. Vols., now at West Point, Va., we have the.most positive testimony that the rebels have organized, armed, and equipped two full regiments of negroes, and that these troops were quite as efficient as the white rebels themselves. This only cohfirnfis other testimony on thesnbject, and leaves it as a /act Beyond dispute. * The traitors have, ever since the commencement of the rebellion availed themselves of - this element of their population in their efforts to orerthrowUhe best government the world ever knew. They have employed negroes, free and slave, to build their fortifications and earth iworks, and perform all the other drudgery of the war. tlow has it been with the Goveniment at Washington? Until recently it .has packed a policy with regard', to 'slavery. In deference probably to the opinion of the Unionistsof the North who believed it ’possible to restore the Union without injuring the status of slavery— the cause of the rebellion—it has simply left to time and circumstance this giguntio evil. Upon one phase of slavery only has the Administra tion had any well defined policy from the be ginning', rind that is, contained’ in Sec'y Came ron’s instructions to Gen. Sherman, that no slave who bad been received and employed by the Government should ever bo rerenslaved. This was the first stop towards a policy ; the second step was the new article of war making it an offopce punishable by instant dismissal from the service for any soldier to turn slave hunter; the third was the President’s Message recommending the gradual abolishment of slavery with compensation. In each of these measures the loyal people have stood right up at the back of our and noble hearted President and bid him God speed. One more step toward3~tba_sqpel'ching of the rebels lias now been taken—a st4p far in advance of all the others, and one worthy of tho hoar end the man. Gen. David Hunter, commanding the Department of the South, having ascer tained that the Rebel authorities in his depart ment were impressing slaves, arming them, and organizing them into a brigade, baa issued the following i.mportant Order: “Eo. W. Smith, Acting A«siatant-Adjt--General.” This Order, We understand, is “based open cxplinit instructions to Gen. Hunter itdeopn tcrvail any attempt of his traitor adversaries to use negroes against him by the most obvious and efficient means. The instructions carried -out by Gen. Shernjan wouhlof themselves have jas'ti&bd - this - step, but we belitve t|«w are THE AGITATOR.
