ie old‘ fogies, who, perhaps, gave ae little , SUNDAY = Revations or Races.—A great many persons ‘ot inteHect dare not discuss the ul tia _ mate relations likely to exist between the white and black raeer, ‘They even foar to think upoe the subject, Thy content them} selves with iterating and reiterating old pro> positions ‘that were put.in their mouths by thought to the question as their protogee. Colonization has been a favorite scheme for ‘the politicians of the lund to vent themsolves on since the days of President Monroe. But the number of blacks that have been colonized in forty years from our shores is not a drop io the bucket, The blacks have increased wouderfully, and so far as colonizing them on a foreign soil, the scheme is practically exploded. It will be noticed that those who are the most rampant for colonization are these identical men ‘who were always vehemently protesting that the blacks ought * to be let alone where they are, in the South. So lony as slavery could be mantuined these noW colonizing patrons were in favor of the two races living together. But as soon, as one is restured to something like the natural eonditiun of freedom, the friends of colonization are. for, a separation. While there was peace in the Union, we were in favor-of not iufractiag the amicable relations thet onght to exist between the States, by any disturbance of the domestic institutions ofthe South. The South wantedthe blacks to live with the whites and work for them. It was «local arrangment, with which we ‘had no constitutional right to interfere. We tow avsume, in the event of general emancipation, that the southern whites will atill adhere to their old notions, that they cannot work inthe cl mate of the Gulf States, and mnst have somebody to work for them: According to their Views, tone bit theks yp ean laber there. The God of nature, they easy, destined the negroes for labor in sucha climate. Wo assume that the whites wil want that labor, because the millious of dol Jars that can be realized from cotton and other products, are going to be realized. Men are not gving to carry their prejudices or apites so far that they will not make for themselves ten thousand dollars a year, beeause they have to employ free negroes to do it; The love of gold has impelled ome to steal others from the const of Africa, and the love of it is not assuredly so weak now aa to prevent doing justice by hiring free labor and reslizing a fortune by such employment too.” The South has for some years regarded the . Black race as a necessity. The North nequiesced. We assume that the relationship between muster and slave being destroyed, the game necessity will still exist, ard we are not so malignant towards the misguided peo“ple of the ‘rebellious States, ns to deprive them, after their submission, of black labor, which they have always deemed a necea~ The cotton and sugar lands of the South are bound to be cultivated, because their products are valuable, and because money can be made by their cultivation. The destruc. tion of life in this atruggle will be so great ‘that laborers in the North will be scarce, and all the immigration from Europe will not supply the demand for years. The nezroes cannot be removed out of the Union, and their places supplied with white Inborin years, and if the change could be effected, the old question arisea whether white labor can make cotton and sugar in the climate v here they are produced, _ We must, at lonst for a time, admit the necessity of employing free black labor in the extreme South. and settle down upon the conviction that it will be accepted aa the best that can be done under the new order of things nbout to be. ‘sO ‘ ' Roping 0 ployment. Civilized northern men are not, assuredly, so attached to slavery as to view it with complacency, and find fault with paying freemen to perform the duties they once . _ did ap slaves. We are none the worse off * for the change in the order of things, but better. ‘The ewners of eotton and sugar ands take the riske and suffer the evils, if _ there are any, of contact with the black race, and the dangers of slavery to the whole coun. tryarégone. : pereburg dispatch announces the eccupa_ . We undertake to say ,freedom to the blacks . tion of Chambersbarg, Pa., by the rebel adwill be_ benef ial to the white race in many . vance of a hundred cavalry, with six pieces one of which is, the tendency alone. of giving freedom te the blacks will be to diminish the rats of their increase, for under the rule of masters it becomes a matter of profit to increase the stock of slaves sible, and the females fast as pos: thers early, ‘and cften times aguinst their will. Freedom wil) lead ii tw judge whether he can support -a family before he will take a wife Besides, it seems to be a law of nature, that the more a peuple are oppressed, the more they multiply. Purest Parkiorism.—In these days of extreme patriotism there should be some standard established by which all men should be judged alike. It is wrong to condemn one man for au act, and look complacently upon another who acts from 4 meaner priaciple. Sinee it has beea proclaimed as beyond dispute, that the General Government must have ita largest due—a principle, by the way, that has rarely been acted upon by either the State Governments or individuals in « half century—it wil) be weil to carry out the principle to the farthest extent, and in doing so we must first establish the rule~ that that is only pure patriotism which renders the exacteet justice to the nation. The man whe owes box rent at a post office whose incumbent ia paid by salary, must act from the largeat liberality. He is not a patriot if he pays ten dollars in paper that cost him but nine doHars in gold. He takes advantoge ot the nation to save for selfish purposes a dollar to himeelf. He must aesume that his Government is sadly in need of gold, and patriotically, in.its true sense, pay nothing but gold. His selfishness is mean if it does otherwise. So, too, of all those who have government contracts. A contractor is a traitor to his country whe pute ina bid to do a certain service at a higher figure than he knows it is worth. He swindles the Government, whieh, it is weli known, cannot in every ease protect Carry ‘out the principle, and every member of Congress whe receives three thousand dollars for hieserviees which might be done for less is not a true patriot unless be strives ti reduce his pay to the proper standard, or fuiling in which, does not return to the Government all that he receives more than his services are worth. Judge our Generals who are leading the Federsl armies by the standard some men would set up, if they would reduce their doctrines as applied now and then to au individual, toa system appli country, and they are guilty of swindling.— Washington furnishes a high example of patrietie devotion. Tle served his country through all the trying period of the revolution aud would receive nothing for his labor and. sacrifices. The example he set may be tve high for this era, but (rom the scourging that at intervals au individual receives who does not act with a liberal looseness towards the Government, we should say, when full reason and discrimination is vouchs fed to the scourgers, a standard of pairiotiem will soon be established by which an employee of the Government will be condemned as no patriot and sentenced to be shot—ut least politically — if he saves to himself, or to a State,a solitary sixpence more than bia’ services are worth and these services will be judged by the same, or a similar, Procrusteau standard. Vive la bagatelle ! San Francisco [rems,—A dispatch to the Appeal says A. A. Sargent, is booked to sail to day. Col. Kewen had arrived under arrest and will be‘sent te Alcatraz. An extensive conflagration. took place on Friday between Dupont and Pike streets. The money market was stringent. Legal tender notes sold at 15 percent discount. The report of a duel between Geo. Penn Johnsen and Dr. Aylette is premature—we are sorry to-say. ———EE ( Lloyd, a miner at Howland’s Flat, Sierra was caught by a cave on the 2nd instant, and killed, x ition Mrs. Sophia Steward Ross, the last of the ancient royal famity“of Scotland, has just died in her 91et year.

A Harnissure, Oct. 10th—p. m.—A Shipof artillery. “Goveraor Curtin ia pushing fie ub troops up the valley. 4 cable to all mankind in their relations to their . ‘Tue STATE TREASURER 4S AFINANCIER. A large number of persons denounce the financiering of the State Treasurer in paying to the Government legal tender notes instead of gold, and saving tothe Btate the difference made by the exchange. They call the substitution wppatrictic. Let us examine this. matter a little, and not condemn without a trial. The denouncing newspapers: aseume the General Government his been swindled. Is it.not the mérest assumption without reason? ‘The General Government has need ef a cer. tain amount in coin to pay the interest on the public debt. Fr other purposes, for the payment of officers or employees, in the army» navy, and civil wervice, legal tender notes are just as good, and go just as far ae coin, dollar for dollar. There willbe specie enough received for customs to meetall the necessi. ties of the Governmeut for coin, and the gold cullected more than enough tu supply the in. dispgnsible uge of the article, is no better than paper. Governimentie not going to keep lerge suas of gold on hand. It will all be paid out. That necessary to pay interest will go, and what ia left will go to pay employees, and is no better than paper. A thousand dollars in one will go just as far and no farther, than the other to pay salaries. P The $263,000 to be paid by thisf State to the General Government, if .paidJin gold, would be ef nv more value te fie Government than paper, allowing we assume there will be all the cvin collected at the Atlantic Custom Houses that the Government abaolutely requires. Besides, the cost of transportation is saved, which is ho inconsiderable item. if the Government pays 29 per cent. aa individuals do. Government would not go'tute the market, probably, and purchase its legal tender notes ata discount, with the gold received from our State. Now, should the State Treasurer, by his financiering, succeed fit Jeaving in the State Tressury some $20,000 profit by exchange, the Government loses nothing at all, because it would not discount its own paper. Its have received, some of the gold had it been paid over, are the onlydosers. Suppose, on the assembling of the next Legislature, it is decided, as we understand itis the wish of the State Treasurer, that the twenty thous and dollars should be laid out in legal tender netes and presented to the Governirent, —is not the Goyernment, then that mach better off, together with the transportation added, than € weula have been, had the Stote Treasurer paid over in gold alone? The late act of the State Treasurer} if properly understood by the Legislature, may become one of patriotism. He will be the instrument of putting extra weans into the Government Treasury to, pay one-half the salaries of California’s delegation in the Na tional Legisliture. We say, in brief, that $263,000 in paper will pay to Government employees that amount in salaries. and that the per centage saved by the State Treasurer, by acting as a broker where the Goverumnent vould not, may be made so much extra for the Government. Who, then, will complain but the officers who might have received the gold instead of the paper? LATER FROM THE EAST. The N. Y. Times’ correspondent from Antietam of the 6th, eave: The best infvrmation that can bé received from Virginia confirms the idea that the body of$the rebel army, whith lingered for a time on the ‘south dank of the Potomac, retreated up the valley in the direction of Martinsburg and Wincheater a week ago. They managed however to keep up a semblance of pewer along the river, for their own purpose. A body of mounted rebels, 200 in number, showed themselves oppposite here last evening. A few shells seut among them caused. a hasty retirement Perrysville, Ky., Oct 8.—Bragg’s army attacked MeCeok’s corps near thia plaice yesterday. The fighting was desperate. The Confederates were greatly superior in numbers to the Federals. The firing ceased at 74 o'clock. The fighting was mainly done by Gen._Rosseau's division. The Federals were heavily reinforced during the afternoon. The battle was resumed to-day. ; A doubt iul rumor, at Louisville, says at the close, of the engagement. at-Perrysville on po “es the rebels held pesséasion of the field. The rebel account of the repulse of our gunbeats at Savaannh is explained. The gunboats made an’attack in front as a teint, whiie 15.000 troops landed and made an attack in the rear. The Washington correspondent. of the N. Y. Post says that Banks is to sueceed Stanton as Secretary of War.

There is now no rebel soldiers on this side of the Blackwate:. ‘The probabilities are that they won’t soon make another appezrance. The loss of our.men is not ascertained. ; Washington, Oct. 10th.—A reconnoissanet was made on Wednesd iy, iy General Stahl, fo. “Aldie,” where he captured fifty or sixty bels, There 19a large force of rebel conscripts at Gordonsville, which seemed to be their main gathering place. Washington Oct. 10th.—General McClellan’s congratuletory to the army saye: We' defeated a numerous and powerful army of the enemy in an action that wag desperately fought and remarkable fer duration and for destruction of life which uttended it. The obstinate bravery of the troops, of Hook er, and Mansfield, and Sumner, the daring gallantry of Franklin’s corps, the steady valor of Buraside’s troops, present a brilliant spectacle te our countrymen, which will swell their hearts with pride and exhultation. Fourteen guns, thirty-nine colors. 16 small arms, and 6,000 prisonérs are evidenee of the coujpleteness of our triumph. Sandy Hook.
