> -stennaeninesanneneedionnnseeeeeeee te The Morning NEVADA GITy. eee 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. ) A JOLLY old darkey dewn South bonght himself'a new hat, and wherit commenced raining he put itunder his coat. ~When asked why he did not keep bis hat on hig head, he-replied: ‘De hat’s mine, bought hiarwid my own money; head belong to tuassa—let} 1 take keer of his own property.” OVERLAND STaGeé CoMPANY.—A_ genHeman who has just come overlind by the stage route, says all the employeea of the company, almost without exception, are seIf this be soit isa shawe and disgrace, and the evil ought to be abated at onee, cessionists, — — ee J.

All the military organizations are ordered to report at 8 o'clock this morning, and 3,000 soldiers have been ordered into the entrenchments. Military officers received informetien last night that the enemy is advancing in force. The Philadelphia National Intelligencer says that the rebels are falling back from MeClellan’s front, which has advanced within six miles of Poo'sville. Reports from New York of yesterday say that the rebels have not entered York eounty, Pennsylvania, but were reported t» be at Emmetsburg, Maryland, near the State line, within 8 miles of Gettysburg. A train of 30 ambulances with a flag of truce, left Citicihnati onthe 10th for the use of our wounded at Richmond, Ky.

Kerr —The writer under this nom de plume is responsible for some of the finest strokes. of wit that enilven the gloominess of these war times. Here are 5 few of his licks, probably well put in: Accomac, my bey, has at length determined that this war shall be vigoruusly carried on, if it even takes several public speakers to Bay 80. Shall it be said that twenty-two millions of ypie cannot put down eiglit millions withbut injuring tiose eigtit imiiiions? No ‘24 thousand times no! I found the Mackerel Brigade and Commodore Head’s fleet in great excitement over the case of an Irish gentleman who believed this to. be a‘ white man’s war, and had started for Paris, just fourteen minutes after landing in this country. fot the 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 him by saying that. although a number of ne= groes were then engaged i digging trenches & new line of holes in a far more unhealthy place would be commenced in the morning and that sone but Irishinen should be-permitted to dig there. i The very next morning; my boy,. the Conic Section crossed the lake, and chas-. ed away everytning on the opposite shore except the before-mentioned wondpile. The latter contains the same kind of wood that was used in the time of Washingten, and twenty{men were appointed to guard it from the prefanation of our troops. We must protect such property at all hazards, my boy,. or the Constitution becomes nulity. Our pickets have been driven in. in?) Yes. driven into Riehmond.

The etuse of freedom and of progress, represented by the North; is closely connected with the same cause in Europe.” A PRorosITION has been started tu raise a suin of $500,000 te establish factories in Iree land, as an effectual mode. of. relieving the
