SATURDAY MORNING, SEPT, 13
DiFFicuLTies BEFORE THE PRESIDENT.
~—Our views upon the policy ofthe Government touching confiscation and: emancipation
are known to our readers.. But, though we
take » radical view of the way to over
the obstacles before the Administratio
the prosecution of the war, we are not inse
sible to the difficulties those obstacles pré
sent. The President occupies a reapousible
position and should weigh all measures well
before proceeding to execute them. The
negro question comes up before him and the
army at every step and’challenges asolution
iw accordance with the best interests of the
country. How are the best interests of the
= country to be subserved? Minds will differ
in striving te solve the problem. It 18 a
serious question, and the best wy to solve
it is involved in some doubt. Our way would
be to cut the Gordian knot wit the sword.
Wo say, strike in favor of universal justice,
and trust for the right. Still we can see
what might bid the President to pause and
consider well betore declaring freedom to
the slaves of rebels. He sees that the rebels
have the ears of four negroes out of five and
can operate upon their fears or credulity to
_any extent and he feara, perhaps, that should
lie declare freedom to them «ll, there will be
no alternative left the Southern Confederacy
but to follow the example, and having better
access to the negroes the latter would, have
the opportanity to secure the services of the
most of them, to fight the. North on condition of freedom. For this reason, the President, though he might wish te see every
slave emancipated, would be likely to hesitate ashe has done. His view may be, that
the declaration of freedom to the slave would
not reach him, the South would arm him in
the causot emancipation, and our armies
would thus have to fight miliions of negroes
in addition to the white rebels. The President. is prudent in considering such a dues: tion well, While we might furnish reasons
satisfactory to ourselves that.a decree of
emancipation should be made, we can yet
reapect the position of the President. At the
same time, regarding the hour has cone,
when liberty should be proclaimed through* out the land, and the nation rid of the demoralizing ingtetation of slavery, we hope to
see pnblic sentiment soon influencing the
President fo see the true policy of thé Goveromieat in the same light we do, and to so
shape that public sentiment we shall contjnually labor, until rebellion is effectually put
down or the great work of destroying the
institution that jeopardizes the national
peace and existence, is accomplished.
“ON TO PHILADELFHIA!”—The Charleston Mercury is anxious for a movement toward the North: “Cannot Jackson, or Hill,
or Longstreet advance on Philadelphia, and
draw McClellan away to the defense of the
North? Cannot Bragg full en Mitchell, and
crush Buell in detail or in force? Can we
‘not use time and opportunity to terminate
this war by conquering a satisfactory peace?
We have large, disciplined and tried armies
Shall we wait until the North raises three hundred thousand moré men and drills them to
fight? Or shall they be used actively, while
we ure nearer a footing ot equality in uumbers?”
o———_
Tue NumbBers.— Quartermaster-General Meigs reports that four -monthe ago, we
had 800 regiments of all arms in the field—iy
8ll 700,000 men—besides more than 100 parte
ly organized regiments scattered about the
‘country. When the last call was made for
300,000 additional volduteers,we had not more
than 320,000 effectives in the various commands. ‘The new call, however, is now quite
full, suys the Alta’s New York correspondent,
nearly every State furnishing its full quota of
volunteers, and some more than their number.
Not quitea month has elapsed, up to this
writing, since this call was made ; yet the men
“were ready, armed, equipped hd uniformed,
and many of them now ou their way to the
seat of hostilities.
‘
A Hint.—A soldier met a Secessionist+
woman the other day in Warrenton Virgimin.
She instantly hoisted her drees to an unusual
high.and swung around to clear him. The
soldier who was attentively regarding the
spectacle, cried outin blank astonishment :
“What dirty stockings!” Down Went the
skirts, hiding the frightful apparation fren
view, and the woman disappeared.

NEVADA aND HER STaGe ConvENtENCES,—It cannot be possible that any observing person does. not see the effect upon the
business of Nevada by the stage lines to the
silver region avoiding the place. One look
at the loaded stages going to.and from Nevada Territory ought to -satisfy the most indifferent that sugh a stream of travel through
our city could not fail to be beneficial to us
all. And when everybody is convineed that
the development of the mineral .resourses
of the Territory has but just begun, and the
trade between the two countries is but just
in its infaucy, we ought to be convinced; thorughly so, that it-is-« duty we owe to eurlves as live and intelligent men, to seek to
avail ourselves of some of the benefits of
that immense trade that is to know ne end.
Are wé doing anything that ougnt to stand
to our credit in this matter? There was
talk of establisting @ stage hne to run between Lincola and Virgima City. Hsa it
culminated in talk? We are not aware of &
single earnest effort of late. Have tlie people, sunk in lethargy from which they will
not awake? Complaints are plenty, indica
tise of commercial disease. Why not awake
aud take the sovereign remedy before we
get so low that the care of « nurse will be of
no avail? We judge by the tone of some of
our business meu that trade is infected witi
the dry rot. Why not give it an infusion of
preservative and life-giving qualities 7? Why,
we ask, is not a movement made, when all
the necessary means are possible? We have
the best stage route across the mouatains.
It is the shortest. as we have demonstrated
ou mote than gne occasiun. The trip from
San Francisco to Virginia City ean be made
over it sooner thal by any other route. Is
there a mind in Nevad& and Grass Valley
that does not believe all this? We think
not. We believe that it is generally conceded thata good stage line.from Lincoln to
Virginia City, passing directly through Grass
Valley and Nevada, would: put passengers
through in far less time than it can be done
by any other route. We are sure the line
would pay. If any one will take the trouble
to examine the statistics of travel from the
central points of the State te the s‘lver territory, he must come to the same conclusion:
What is the matter, then, with this eommunity? There is money enough. Of this
there can be no doubt. The obstacle must
be indifference. Wskeup, Nevadans! Thet
people who poured out their cash and their
mén to defend the silver regions{against Indians, ought to have the spirit to profit by
the men and the mines they contributed liberally to defend.

express purpose of protesting against any labor being performed by negroes, wnile there
were white men to do it. Col. Wobt. Wubinson, of the Anatomiéal Cavalry, quieted

to anaturalized citizen of European birth :
“With the perfectly natural interest feft

victory of the North over the South must.
have considerable influence over Europe.—
In our times, civilized countries have interests and; feelings in common, and this it is
which™ constitutes their solidarity. The

the same cause in Europe.”
