Napoleonic Energy.

Bonaparte wrote to Augemnin the follow-
train
• ; »*What! Six hours after receiving the

John Bull in a Passion*
The New York Tribune illustrates the
- ; eoutradiciion between John Bull’s prcach
.. his practice, by the following an—
•. •odoto:
• The transition from the peace-preaching
to ..the war-threatening Bull is very sud
. den, and, ,in spite of his'fUry, gives him
rather ai ludicrous aspect It is the old
. story of the parson who was perpetually
; lecturing his good, wife on her hasty tem
per, and entreating her to think of Job and
imitate his long-suffering meekness. At
length the preacher of patience happened
; toupeet a hornet’s nest in hia garden, and
•\ was surprised by the lady of his choice in
• dulging in all manner of unseemly antics
. end. imprecations. lf My dear,” said the
; ft»tenllhed d»nie,.‘ , you should;ttink of Job
; and imUite. his infincible patience in ad
versity.”.; “Job be blessed," retorted the
tortured and wrathful divine, slapping and
jumping with all his might; “Job never
. .had a handful of hornets in his breeches in
all his lift.*
. Surrender of Fugitive Slaves by the
' ' "Amy. -
presented by Mr. Sonne*,
~. of Massachusetts, declaring that the army
• thallnot bo used to sumnder fugitive
slavca, was called'tip mi Wednesday. Mr.
Sumner ,**id he had various letters stating
abuses of this kind in the army. Brigadier
.. General Stone .was adding to his achieve-
ment Air Ball's Bluff, by busying himself in
jtawhdering op slaves. ! He (Gen. Stone)
v :had. jnadc-.h£a#sachascUB .soldlert do this
vllo doiyi ‘ The Governor of Massachusetts
had already complained of this. This out
ragemust be stopped. The resolution was
agreed to. .
The Policy of the Government in
Relation to the Confiscation of
Rebel Property.
A Washington corresjkmdenl,nf ;the Chi- j
cago Tribune , who professes to have good
authority for his statements, gives the fol
lowing on an important subject:
1 am able to correct the painful impres-!
,sion here noticed with regard to the Presi- ’■
dent of the United States, and I do so with -
the more satisfaction and gratitude that I \
was deeply grieved, in common with nine- J
tenths of the loyal citizens of.the country, i
by . the countermanding of Fremont’s pro-j
clamatiori, and by the application of the
check-rein to Secretary Cameron's , just and
wise inclinatipns. Mr. Lincoln assures his
: friends, without reserve, in conversation,
that he is in favor of measures which shall
enable us to deprive every rebel, from Vir
ginia to Texas, of bis slaves, and -every
other species of property, and that the only
disagreement which can rise between him
self and Congress will relate to the details
of the.bill which may be adopted. If any
such disagreement shall arise, it will, I pre
same, relate to the possible involving of
loyal mastersin the consequences of eman
cipation to the ’slaves. of their disloyal
neighbors. As between two. branches of
tho Government, equally solicitous* for the
welfare of the country, this' ought not' to be
a serious "matter. The dumber of loyal
slaveholders * in' the rebel - States is ridicu
lously small, .and* tf'it be conceded that the
giving of freedom to Uie slaves of the disloyal
is of great importance as a war meas
ure, the supposed rights and interests of
that small minority must not be allowed to
stand in. the way. A railroad or canal or
other important public work must not be
stopped because its course leads it through
my cabbage garden—lawful and hannless
as is tbo practice of raising cabbages, and
difficult as it may bo.for me to find another
garden which will produce them equally
corpulent. And surely ntr argument can
be found to show that Northern soldiers
and Northern tax-payers have lets claim
on the protection and care of the Govern
ment than the few loyal slave owners of
Jeffdom. If emancipation will make the
warShortcr, less bloody, less, costly, than
it otherwise would be, then the 600,000 sol
diers, and tho payers of; the $700,000,000,
have just cause to demand that their
rights shall not be lost sight of, while the
microscope is being used to spy out the
rights of a few planters down in Dixie.
Congress will pass a law striking the most
direct and . telling ..blow at slavery, by
emancipating or confiscating every negro
claimed by a rebel. Of this there can be
no doubt. Such a bill could probably get
a two-thirds vote in the Senate, but not in
the House. Hence, in part, the anxiety
concerning the position of the executive.
While all, who. are in earnest about this
war, will be -sufficiently grateful to the
President for not .vetoing the bill, it does
seem &9 though lie had lost a palpable op
portunity to inscribe his name among ihe
great ones of Uie earth, by making himself
the leader of the inspiring cause rather
than its rear guard.
That the country is waiting with anxiety
for the expressioL of a definite policy, on
this most perplexing of all subjects, must
be evident to the President and all of his
advisers. What is greaUy desired is that
this policy should be adopted in a spirit of
mutual concession,-and in entire harmony,
by Congress and the executive; and that
it shall be in accordance with that mighty
public sentiment which took Mr. Lincoln
from among the people and lifted him to a
seat the summit of the highest human am
bition. While the rights of the few loyal
slaveholders, and the views of the Union
ists in the border States should have due
consideration, the claims of the millions
on whom the burden of this—war rests,
should not be overlooked. Mr. Lincoln
owes an immense debt of gratitude to those
who selected him from among the thousands
of our Israel, and they ask from him only
tliat he shall consider their-claims while
he pays due regard to those involved in
the meshes of an unholy rebellion.
The Great Fire at Charleston.
The loss by this great fire is estimated at
seven millions of dollars. The following
are the only extracts from Charleston
papers, which have reached us Bincc the
fire:
The Courier says the most gratifying in
cident of the fire was the zeal manifested
by the slaves in their efforts as firemen
and laborers. Tho entire population, male
and female, worked most earnestly. Sub
scriptions for the poor sufferers by tho ter
rible conflagration had been opened at the
Bank of Charleston, and $2,000 had been
.subscribed.
The Mercury of Friday says: Yesterday
was a_gloomy day for Charleston. Busi
ness was universally-suspended, and with
one impulse our community united in giv
ing sympathy and aid to tho. victims of the
great public calamity.
# The Courier says the fearful conflagra
tion that has just passed over our city will
cause the 12th of December, 1861, hereafter
to bo remembered as one of those dark and
trying periods which for the moment seem
to paralyze all the long cherished hopes
and bright anticipations of tho
have been visited by one of those myste
rious dispensations of Providence which
we cannot attempt to solve. Our eiUy has
received a terrific blow which will take'the
work of years to repair. Let us nerve our
selves then for another start, thankful we
arc still left with the same bold spirit and
strong arms, to make a new and perhaps
more substantial prosperity for oar beloved
city. "
Hon* Garrett Darin,
A correspondent of tho Chicago Tribune,
speaks in tho following warm terms of ad
miration of the newly elected Senator from
Kontncky: Y
“Tt is a Wttor for profound gratulation
that Garrett Davis comca. to tho Senate os tho
latest exponent of tho popular will in Ken
tucky. Mr Davis, is one of those thorough
paced and uncompromising Union men who
«re not what becomes of Slavery, provided
the rebellion bo promptly put down. Green
Adams, a well known member of tho last
House from Kentucky, andan intimate friend
of Mr. Davis, affirms that this irhi* position.
He Is even more earnest in the patriotic work
than Mr. Holt, and ho was probably elected,
instead of that eminent gentleman, for that
reason.' You will hoar of no Crittenden reso-
other patch work, from him. Ho
is a man of undaunted courage, and in his
acts and speeohes, neither timidity nor irres
olution have any part. The Government will
not have him to stumble over, in tho work of
saring tha country. His own shoulder will
be at the wheel all the time. Mr. Maynard,
of. Tennessee, .is another gentleman from
whom we may expect no strenuous opposition
lo the emancipation policy. I saw him yes
terday at Mr. Chahntng’s church, listening to
a hearty anti-slavery sermon. "Probably all
tiiat he heard did not meet his approval, but bo
does admit; in his intercourse iritb bis fellow
members, that he Has no reason for wishing
slavery preserved. All bis own negroes wet?
long ego confiscated by the rebels, and him
self hunted like a wolf from his homo.
Gen* Janies B* Lane*
It is a notable fact, that the Senate of the
United i)£ieg, by a unanimous vote, confirmed
tiie appointment of Gcn. Jik Laxe as a Brig
adier General. This event took placo whilo
his able speech in reference to the conduct
of tho war was still ringing in the cars of tho
Senators. Tho New York Tribune says tho
confirmation wns mado with tho distinct un
demanding .that Ujhould not operate until
Gea._Lane should signify his acceptance.
