TRES/DENT LINCOLN'S illawr
OATH.
In Tuesday's Post we commented upon
Dr. RRONSON'S late] review of President
LINCOLN'S mode of restoring ttke Union,
by allowing one•tenth of the people of
each rebellious States to rule the remain

bootie Abolitionists. This Dr. BRON
sox, the reader will remember, 16 au Abo
litionist, himself; and a supporter of the
Administration; but the late proclama
tion of the President is so outrageous a
blow at self-government, as to arouse his
apprehension, and be condemns it ac
cordingly. His dissection of this alarm.
ing doctrine of President LINCOLN Is per
fectly crushing of it in all ite aspects.
He tears it info a thousand ehiede and
Patches and scatters it to the wind. The
idea, indeed, of one-tenth of a commu

army, the thing is impossible. Hence
minds of the power and independence of
Dr. Baossores although partizans of
the Administration, cannot bat repudi
ate it.
Oar opposition to this scheme the Ga

ed of the weakness of a cause which can
not Suggest anything stronger to sustain it
than the stereotyped and worn out scivil
ity and twaddle about Southern masters.
It ought rather to attempt to answer Dr.
RaoNames objections to the President's
plan of reconstruction. Su ch a course
would be more becoming, in an Admicis
tration organ, than the parrot-like repeti
tion of garalous stupidity. Reasonable op
position to a scheme, which is subversive
of our entire Republican system, is not to
be b:ushed away by slang about" Southern
masters." But sucWeervice may, in the es•
timatton of the Gazette, be more accept.
able at Washington than decorous and se
rious argumentation. It is partly in the
line marked out by the head of the Ad
ministration of the Government for his
own public performances. The only
difference between him and it being that
the one is generally smutty while the
other is always stupid. Besides a paper
like the Gazette, which has at the present
time, some half dozen attachees living
off the bounty of the Government, aught,
had its conductors cheeks at all sensible
to shame, refrain from allusion to "mas
ters" of any sort. It occupies the position
of a pamper, living on alms, being mean
enough to applaud every utterance of his
benefactor.
The only point in the Gazette's obser
vations worthy of serious attention is con
tained in the following paragraph
"Bat will the Past tell us why any man
in the South except a few officers of high
grade need be "excluded by the test
oath?" Is there any thing in that oath of

We might content ourself by answering
this silly interrogatoiy. by asking the Ga•
zette what was in the Fugitive Slave Law
which caused it and others to violate it ?
With our own impression of matters we
might, perhaps, if living South, not hesi
tate at taking the oath in question ; but
our convictions are not those o 1 the grea,
bulk of the Southern people; and it is
quite as reasonable to ask the Abolition
ists to favor the slave trade as it is to in

not intended to restore the Uni on ; it is
but a device to subjugate the Southern

lINION PRISONERS AT RICH/1110ND.
The special Washington correspondent
of the Chicago Times, makes some awful
revelations of the sufferings of Northern
soldiers in Richmond. On the evening
of the Path inst., he writes that he was
called upon by a gentleman who had re
cently effected his escape from the prison
at Richmond, and who had jest macre ed•
ed in reaching Washington, ef.er incredible
suffering and endurance, such as only an
escaped prisoner can undergo. I knew
him in former years as a hearty, robust
man; and it was difficult to recognize
him in the pale emaciated, and wasted
being that stood before me. In reply to
my expressions of astonishment he said
in a hollow voice, broken by a dreadful
cough,—the sure indication of settled
consumption and speedy death,—"As I
am e so are thousands of others, who, a
year ago, were as strong and healthy as I
was. They are dying there, like rotten
sheep. Bat lam happier than they, for I
shall die at borne." And for a moment
his eye brightened with some of its for
mer are. Poor fellows he is at home
now, and he will close his eyes in comfort,
and surrounded by the ones he loves,—
happy even in that fate. Before he left
he gave me a roll of paper, in which
are recorded the names of those prisoners
at Richmond who have died there since
the first of October, and whose names he
could obtain. He kept the list posted up
every day, and his comrades, knowing
that he was doing so, brought to him the
^ e and regiment of every man who
have sent the list to New York.

Witco/Ito the Last meet' or the Con
federacy;
The Boston Traveller pabrikihes the nar
ration of two ladies born if;l, the North,
bat for several years resideritkof central
Georgia, who have latebileitaliit'Boston.
The stories they tell of theattffaring at
the South confirm the reports of other ref
ugees. They came to escape from starve
tion. Provisions are not only h4h but
they are scarce, and at times cannot be
obtained at any price. At Augusta a
sufficient supply of corn meal can genera
ally be obtained, but occasionally, when
soldiers are passing through in large
numbers, the mills prove insufficient to
grind what is wanted, and the supply runs
short.
At night the whole South is in darkness.
The supply of kerosene at Augusta has
long since become exhausted. A rest
dent invented an oil similar to burning
fluid, using turpentine in its manufacture,
and the citizens congratulated themselves
that they were to have lights for their
houses at a moderate price, when the
man was conscripted and sent to thearmy,
taking his secret with him. Tallow
dies, the only resource left, are worth
one dollar each.
There are in Middle Georgia large num
bers of refugees trona Charleston and
Savannah, end from Tennessee. These
are hospitabl; received by the residents,
who look upon them as martyrs, and spare
no pains to make them comfortable.
The people seem willing to make any
sacrifice in behalf of the army. When
troops arrive the wealtby families bake
bread and send to them. Many have sent
all their spare quilts and blankets to the
soldiers, and have cut up their carpets to
be used as a protection against storms and
cold. It is anticipated that the. Govern
ment will seize such of these articles as
are not freely contributed.
The citizens talk freely of the Confeder
acy as "the Land of Starvation," but still
refuse to hear one word about yielding,
and say they will die rather than submit.
They generally talk confidently of success,
but at times their faith seems to be shalt
en. The papers talk about suffering at
the North, of business prostrated, the cit•
izens voting at the point of the bayonet,
and the Government seizing horses and
supplies wherever they can find them.
The people implicitly believe this, and our
informant, although much better informed
of affairs here than her neighbors, was
surprised to find these statements al
together false.
Although the soldiers were all tired of the
war, and do not hesitate to say so, there
are but few signs of Union sentiment in
that portion of Georgia. But one citizen
of Augusta, and he a native of the South,
was suspected of being a friend of the
North, and this ho denies. In the early
cart of the rebellion he remarked that he
did not know what the South could do
without the North, on account of the
number of indispensable articles manu•
lectured here and sold at the South. For
uttering this "tresonable sentiment" he
was fined $6OO, and forced to sign a per
mit that his son, a mere boy, should be
enlisted in the rebel army. The son had
been killed, and since that time he has
been regarded as a Union man.
In consequence of the crowded State of
the hospitals, cases of gangrene were Ire
quent. Medicines were scarcer than ever
before. The apothecaries could not sup
ply their customers much longer at any
price. Our informant paid $lO for what
quinine she took in two days, and the do
ses were very small. Homeopathic physi
cians are the most popular, because they
furnish their own medicine, The ladies
do all in their power to give aid and cora •
fort to the soldiers in the hospitals, visit
ing them daily, and supplying them with
soups and such other delicacies as their
scanty means will allow.
The rebel Government keeps back the
intelligence of bad news a.s long aa posti•

burg by seeing an account of it /El a North
ern paper, which had been smuggled
through the lines, and was handed to her
'in secret. The next day the news was
published in the local papers.
The importance to the South of the sup
plies received by the blockade runners,
can hardly be estimated. Without them
the rebellion would have been crushed
long ago.
There have been no outbreaks among
the slaves, but fears are entertained that
there will be trouble with them before
spring. Complaints are heard that the
domestics are getting uneasy, and do not
work willingly as formerly.
They are not allowed to visit from fam
ily to family as heretofore. No festivals
are allowed them, and they were at all
rtimes watched with suspicion. There was
a decided repugnance to arming the slaves
to fight for the Confederacy.
Augusta is regarded as the "last ditch"
of the Confederacy. There the Confed
erate Government has stored immense
supplies of cotton brought from Charles.

birthday, on the 23d of April next. The
Stratford people wished to have the cele-
bration there, but the literary men who
undertook to arrange matters decided to
have it in London. The people of the
provinces, however, insisted that Stratford
should be the place; and a seperate com•
mittee was formed in accordance with
these latter views. This committee is try.
ing to raise money first, for the endows
ment of one or more scholarships to the
English Universities, open to competition
among the pupils of the school of King
Edward VI., at which Shakepeare re
is education; and next, the erec
tion of a monumental memorial at Strat
ford. The entertainments proposed are a
banquet on the birthday itself, Saturday,
the 23d of April, presided over by Lord
Carlisle and attended by many men of
mark in literature and art, and by ladies;
and in the next week, excursions among
Shakspeare'a haunts, reading of his
plays, a concert and a fancy ball of Shak
spearean characters. In none of this, how
ever, will the London committee partici

would be one, responds to the individual

aptdin Edward Cahill, Recruiting
Colored Troupe--sir: Ycurs of thellthinst,
informingnie that you have been ordered
to Kentucky to recruit "free colored men"
for the Arm) of the United States, and
asking my consent for so doing, is before
me. You do not inform me by what an•
thority you come to Kentucky to recruit
"free colored men." I know of no act
of Congress requiring such service, not
have I seen any order from the War De
partment directing it. On the contrary, I
am well assured that in deference to our
picnliar position, and to avoid unbecess
fgefnaffiNNW,hteu e t raghitie f e laae
ington do not contemplate recruit
ing "colored men - in Kentucky. We
are ready to till our quota from the
" tree white citizens of Kentucky.
We will unhesitatingly comply with
the requisition for men to defend our
Government. We claim the right to fur
nish from citizens, whose duty it is to
make that defense, and who are ready to
comply with the requirements of duty. the
duty of defense devolves upon those who
euj_.y the benefits of our Government.
From such we will fill the call upon us.
We presume that while men who owe
the duties of allegiance to the Government
will be accepted for its defense. Wewill
furnish them. If, therefore, you came
to recruit "colored men" for the benkfit
of Kentucky, we decline your services.
If you came to recruit for the benefit of
another State, we deny your right to do
so, and forbid it. No State has the right,
under any law or order, to enter Kentucky
to recruit either white or ''colored men."
We do not intermeddle with any State
that chooses to recruit "colored men"
within its limits. But no State that is
not willing to meet the measures of duty
by contnbniing its quota from its own
population shall be permitted to shelter
from duty behind the free negro popula
tion of Kentucky.
We shall meet the call upon us without
enlisting colored men, and your State
must meet its call from its own white
or "colored'' men, as it may best suit its
people, and not assume to recruit either
white or black in Kentucky.

THE LATE COL. WM. McNras..—A writ•

the death of this gentleman, says :
The deceased was born in Annapolis,

of 1812. In 1822 he established a news
paper in Annapolis, entitled "The Carroll

of Carrollton then the last surviving signer
of the Declaration of Independence, and
conducted it with ability for sometime; was
elected printer of the Senate of Maryland
in 1823, and re-elected for twenty-six sac
ceasive years. In 1856 he received an ap•
pointment in the Interior Department and
removed to Washington, which position he
through the administration of Mi. Buchan

age and infirmity, be was compelled to re

the rate of over one hundred miles a day;
before he reaches the western limit of

If we look at the most westerly of our

The discovery of gold near Pike's Peak
(one of the Rocky mountain range) first
drew many away from comfortable
homes; many, disappointed, retraced
their steps homeward; but they failed,
not for lack of gold, but because it was

require machinery to work it successfully,
and furthermore, it required capital,which
the poor emigrants of 1867 did not pos.

been sent out there, machinery introduc

been made for extracting the gold from

flourishing city situated in the heart of
Colorado Territory, at the foot of the
Rocky Mountains, at a distance of (more
than six hundred miles from a railroad or

ternew th
Gen. Scott. He did not
(gays thelvriter) regard the future pros
.
Pe_ate as Very bright. Indeed, he said he
did not see one bright spot in our national
horizon. One thing he thought very re
ma,rkable—no war of any magnitude had
ever been prosecuted anywhere before
this one, without throwing to the surface
men of marked military genius and mark
ed virtue. But this war has been fruit
ful of no such result so far. Those who
had inspired a momentary confidence had
disappointed the public expectation. We
have had some splendid fighting, but with
no marked results. Our generals seem
to - save no ability to reap the fruits of
well fought battles. To fight the enemy,
to gain a decisive victory, and then let
him escape with his men, gang and bag
gage, is simply to make t he war endless.
He considered the President's amnesty
proclamation as impracticable, in con
seqtlence of the large number of persons
exempted from hope of pardon. These
would be made desperate and fight to the
last. If the large number exempted from
pardon were in the hands of the President
to day, and under lock and key, so that
he could, if he would march them oat to
death, he could not execute that large
number. Hun.anity and civilization would
revolt at it.
In the judgment of Gen. Scott, it
would be better to offer pardon to the
great mass of the rebels, and reserve
severe punishment for the leaders only.
More than a year ago General Scott sup
posed that Corinth and Richmond would
both be taken, and taken at once. He
not only expected it, bat had never seen
any explanation or reason why it was not
done. Confident of that result, he sent
to the President a plan for the settlement
of the difficulty, North and South. A
basis for the reconstruction of the Union
was sent in. It was made the subject of
one or more cabinet meetings, and Gee.
Scott is confident that when the war is
over, the plan will form substantially the
basis of a final settlement.
