"They laid bold on one Simon, a Cyrenian iind on him they liid (he cross, that . ho ui:ght hear it after Jesus," I.uee xxiil. SO It has beat ingeniously remarked by ccrtr in Commentator that alt tha threo great portions of the then known world had a rep tesentative hand in tho death of Christ. Asia accused and delivered him, in the person ol the Jews; Europe judge and sen. tence him. io the person of the Roman Got tDOr; and Attica came afterwards bearing his cross, the person of Simon the Cyroman There is something significant in the very form of the narativo. And they laid hold on ' one Simon, a Cyrenian; and on him they laid the cross." As if one would say, Here ia fellow without rights, without buisnoss a stray chattel, to be oaught and impressed into any service among his bitters that may happen to want him. - He is good enough to bear the cross that will just do Tor bim And so on bim they laid the cross, that hp might carry it after Jesus. And so ever since, as ages have rolled on, Vrica has hoei following aftor, wearily car -'rying that cross. Wo talked once with a slave woman a "woman of noble figure and proportions; and of a soul grand and sweet as ever lived in a womanly fraino. She had fa girlhood farmed the resolution of celibacy, that she might not be a mother ol alaTes. Her miner had forced her to mar, ry, that she ight brng forth children for him to sell. And she had borne eighteen boys and girls, and had seen them said, one after another. "Ah, ma'am," she said. "I have borne this heavy cross many, many yoars." Bur there was in this great soul, with a full conscience tf ber wrongs, no revenge no resontnent Shu bnra the cross silontlv. in tho spirit of bim who went before her. Thoro came aback man to our house a few cUjs ago, who had spent five yoars at, hard labor in a Maryland penitentiary lor the crime ol having a copy ot Uncle Tom's Cabin in the house. He had bean seatencod for ten years but on his promise to leave the State and go to Canada, was magnanimously pardoned cut. Everybody cheated htm out o1 the lit-tlo property ho had. A man or whom he had cut sixty cords of wood, paid him two dollms fir the wbcle job another found a pretrtt to s-.'izj on his Ijtile house, and c he Itfi Maryland without any acquisition except t3 iiifiiniity ol the limbs which he had cmght from pria n labor. . Ail this was his p'irllou of ihe cross ar.d he took it mcekU. without rrmuiti t only atking that as they did m.t ralK w tim to finish reading the book, we wou!d givo him a cop ol Uncle Toiu's Cabin which we did. 7 bo cao speak tho multitude, the varieties of years and ugmies which have gT.e to make up that crosi? G id is reminding us no , by our own experiences, what some o! ithese woes may be like. Thousands of hemes now havo eyes that (ail in looking for sons that shall return no more. Thousands ol wasted, dismantled houses thousands of riven aud shattered homesteads make us a little aware in our. own hearts what the dark man bas been suffering for ages. For that silent Sufferer who walked before the Cyrenian is one who never forgets whose day of vengei.ee is the year ol his redeemed.Ue was the God, the Ring, the saccrifice, both of the Jewish priests, the Roman Gov. eraor, and the despised African; and the time ia coming when they that have suffered, must reign with him; Silently he sitsabovo and camly be looks down on the turbulent crowd of sonators, politicians, generals, soldiers, All surging to and fro in their blind and passionate endeavors, and every one of them in turn rex pudiating their black brother. ''I do not care ror the negro but I caro for 'th "wVtes," is now the very advance cry of those who take the side of Simon the Cyren Jan. At least let. him have the privilege of digging our trenches where whi te men can not work." "Ah, now, you have philanthropic views toward him. " shouts the opposite party. -"Look there, now, those men actually vre getting philanthropio." "Not a bit of it," Is the rejoinder; "only twenty thousand white men died in the trenches before Richmond, and I bad rather it had beon twenty thousand niggers that's ,11." But high above all sits the King who wore the crown of thorns. Let ns tremble at the vision of him which" the Apocalypse opeus: "And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and ho that sat upon bim was , called Faithful and True, and ia righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head wero many crowns, and be had namo written that no man knew but he himBclf. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: nd his name Is called the Work of God-And tho armies which were in heaven follow, ed bim upon white horser, clothed in lioon, white and clean, And out of his -mouth goeth a sharp word, that with it he should smite tho nations: and he shall rule thorn with s rod of Iron: and he 'readth the wine-press of the Qorceuess and wrath of At mighty Gad. And he hath on his vesture on his tbigk a namo written, KING 01' KINGS, AND LORD OF LOltDiJ," That awlul wine-pwii of the wrath of Almighty C!id; what Is it? wo can measure i ? . ; Who can measure the wrath of puro lovo, of sensitive tenderuos? the wrath of a fnthor or mothor'i heart that has seen its children crushed, scattered, wronged, cheated, torn with scourgos, pining with hunger, wastod with pain, through tho slow coming of ages? Fathers and mothers of this country! God loves the poor despised African as you loved those sous whose sufferings sick, wounded, mangled, prifloners, dying you mourn. The sons of the lonoly e!ove mother, torn from her to die in Carolina rice swamps, are precious in her eyes as your cons that died in the trenches before i Ichmond. And to that nation, despised and cast out, reviled, abborrod of all, God says, "Sinco thou hast been precious in my sight, thou hast been honorable, and I havo lovsdlbee: thorofore will I give men for tUe and people for thy life." How long must this people wait in thoir hardness and impenitence with this great ar roar of crime ond injustice unrighted? The time has come when the nation has a bight to demand, and the President of tho United States to decree their freedom, and there should go up petitions from all tho land that he should da it. How many plagues must oome on us be for o we will hoar that evident voice, '!Lot this people go, that they may serve me?" Must we wait for the tenth ond last? Must wo wait till thoro is not a house whore there is not one dead. The Lust Momenta of don. McCook, Captain Burt gives somo particulars of tho death of Gon. McCook. lis was passing from below the State line of Tenn6ssoo to Decherd, and being unwell he wa9 riding in an ambulance, about a mile In front of his br gade. When tho ambulance was fired upon by bushwbackoas and the nows was cm ried back, several companies dashed for ward, head"d by Captain Burt. When tnoy arrived at Potty's (arm hou-o, Drs. Gordon and Boyce both pr. nounced the wound a fa. tal odo. Ho was then vomiting blood. IIj was cool and calm to tho last, but suffered greatly, giving Captain Burt and others an account of tho assassination. While on tho road, Gen. McCook met a man in a ravine, and asked him II ho know a good place to encamp. Tho man told him ihero was plenty ol water cn the hill loyond, and seemed anxious to hurry him on. Arriving at tha top of the hill a shot was fired without effect. As soon as Gon. McCook heard the shot, he told John (his col-oied smvani) to turn back; that tho bush-nbacUrs nero uon then.' They stattcd baek'ai ull speed, General McCook leaning on his knees and assisting " the driver.' In the flight number of shots were fired Eleven i oles were found in tho wagon, Mc-Ci k receiving a single ball. Before tho fatal shot was fired, rib-I cavalryman ordered the wagon to halt, leveling the pistol across the horn of the saddle. Gen. McCook told tho drivor to stop, which the driver was is the act ol doing, when tho cavalryman ordered a halt the second time, ac companying the order with a discharge of the pistol, the ball piercing tbe General's side Capt. Brooke, of McCook 's staff, impl red the cavalryman not to shoot, assuring him the wagon was ocsupied by a sick man. Another bushwhacker rode up with a cccked pistol but McCook told him it was no use to shoot, that he was fatally woun led already. Capt, Brooke then conveyed MoCook to Petlj's houso. Recovering from a paroxysm, General McCook said to Capt Burt: ".ndy, the problem ol life will soon bt solved for ma." In roply to Father Betty, if he had any message to hia brother Aleck, be said; "Tel) him and the rest I have tried to live as a man, and die attempting to do my duty." To Capt. Burt be said: "My good boy, may your life be longer and to a better purpose than mine." Father Betty, the brigade wagon-master, was with him in his last mo merits. Clasping his band in tbe death struggle, he said to him: "I am done with life; yes, this ends it all. You aud I part now, but the loss of one thousand such lives as yours and mine would be nothing, if their sacrifice would but asvo'such a gov ernment as ours." Before his death Gen. MoCook sent for Col. Vandever, who drew up his will. In his will he directed that two favorite horses should be given to his brothers Aleck and Daniel, and the remainder of his property to his mother-It is known to Captain Burt and others of McCook's staff; that the Goneral was deliberately assassinatod. The suiter of the 9 Ih Ohio heard tho bush 'hackers arrange the plan for the assassination, but had no opportunity to communicate the in formation to McCook.-Zancsville Courier A ' Patriotic Woman. The Rochester Union gives the following account of an oc-currence which took place recently at a war meeting at Gasport, Niagara county. Tbe speaker bad been urging she womon to bring the men up to sign the roll, when a woman rose io the meeting and addressed her bus, band substantially as follows: "Ira, you know what you said teforo you came hor lj-n Ight that you would enlist, if you don't do it, jo straight borne and take off those brooches, and let ma have them and I will go mysolfl" This brought down the bouse, and biought up Ira, who put bis name down and became a volunteer. jFjTSince the war broke out. twenty men from the composition room of the Cleveland Horald have enlistod. Printers aro never wautiog io patriotism Negro Agitators. The Conservatives are tho moat pertinacious peraous iu tho world in forcirg peo-plu to discuss the everlasting ncigto-question. They refuse the nation any rest whatever from tie eternal monotouiy of the son; of Slavery. They raise Ihe cry ofnejjrol negro! negro' eoutlnually. If a tax ba proposed they fear that it will be unjustly burdoning slave property. If an expedition is to be made, tlicy fear that somabody'o slave will run off. If a rebel is at rested they fear that his negroes will become demoralized and dangerous without their master. If a black pilot should run oil' with a rebel vessel they dread re ceiving him, lest it eboulj encourage mil- away negroes. If a free school be openrd i ll.ft M t Ma t 1J 1 .... T. mo ucgiuua Buuum loarn miscniet. it a rebel's negroes bo found raising corn for tlio rebel army they aro opposed Io taking th- m for fear of disturbing the fjuaranlccs ot the Constitution. If a loyal man says that ho would Bee Slavery perish to save the Union, they tell you that such senti ments will incite the negroes to insurroc tion. If a solitary meaeure of peace or war can be proposed which your conservatism will not connect in some way or other with the negro question, we do not know what it can be. The most absurd thing in the whole matter is these same Ra Ileal Conservatives whoso "vety breath is agitation," and ho would become ostinct if Slavery wero distroyed, are forever complaining that other people will talk of Slavery. Those men, who sgilato from morning till bight, reproach others for agitating. VVo tell these gentlemen very positively that wo cannot nrd will not allow them to enjoy a monopoly of this agitation. If you are for tho Union and against tho discussion of slavery, then help us save the Union, nnd let slavery tnkc care of ilscl' amid tho fortunes of war. If ils violcnco and vicissitudes destroy it, let it be destroyed: if otherwise, Ihcu very well, but we cannot stop tho work of crushing out the rebellion to read Dred Scott decisions or Missouri compromises, oi Crittenden n solutions. We mean to kill out the re bellion. We mean to destroy all the ngencies used to promote and sustain the rebellion, aud wo don't intend to Btop orje moment to consider whether anybody's negro runs off on accouut of what we do. It is useless for conservatives to keep up this cry of slavery, Everybody now un deastands it as a stale (rick which means anything or nothing' Our firm belief Is that loyal men hav. something more important to attend to at present, than to bother Ihomt elves about the security of rebels' negroes. What Constitutes a Legal Tender important dooibiou. In the Philadelphia District Court, on Wednesday, a decision was given in the case of Shoenberger for use vs. Mussel-man & Watts, a brief notice of which, in view of the importance of the point in volved, may not be out of placejhero. The defendants, obligors in a bond dated November 26, 1861, in the penal sura of $56,231 78, conditioned for the payment of 28,155 89 in spec e, current gold of the United States of America, on the 1st of May, 1862, with lawful interest: in specie, current gold and silver money aforesaid, to bo paid half yearley for the samein tne city ot rnilladelplua. A war ratt of attorney for the samo date with tbe bond to confess judgement was annexed to tho bond. Under this warrant a judgement was entered on the day of the date of the bond, in tie Court of Common Pleas of Lancaater county. Ac cording to the usual practice, the judge ment was entered tor the penalty of the bond, and the reoord sets out tin condition also, verbatim. When the day of payment arrived, the obligors tendered to tho obligee the debt in'ereat and cost, in full, in the notes of the United States, which by act of Congress of Febuary 15, 1862, were mr.de a legal tender for all debts, cfco. The plaintiff refused to receive them, and had a fi. fa. issued, which the defendants asked to have set aside. The question raised was whether the plaintiff had a right, since the act of Congress of febuary 25, 1862. to require payment by dea fondants of gold and silver money, or was bound to accept the notes of the United States, which, by that act, were made a legal tender of the United states noles was sufficient answer to tho obligation in the bond, and the writ was set aside. A Brigade or Colorsd Union Men Applications bavo boon made by Maryland-ors to tbe Government for permission to rtise brigade of colored Union men in this city. What will Northorn doughfaces.afQictod with negrophadia, say to scoing 5,000 valiant soldiers of liberty, with colored skins, marching from a slave slate to help save tbe Union and crush out the slaveholders' robollion? This sight is reserved for their eyes mark what I say! An intelligent negro was askel a day or two ago whether be could raise a regiment of negroes in this city. '"Five of them," be promptly replied. !'And would thoy fight?" "Just try us!" was his answer. It only neods a soul stirring order from Pope.rpon Lincoln sounding tho tocsin , and black men wil spring from tbe earth like Cadmus'a host from the dragons teeth. JNo bounties will bo needod to fill UP thoir ranks. Baltimore Correspondence Evening Poet. Something to Stop tho Draft Ekidad-Uor;i.Tho following Ordjr has beon kiucd by the war Dj;)artin.int. Wa?.

Tho dead and wounded were a spcct cU , but the way tho liv. ing fought was terri'.la beyond description-The rebels were sent into battle vi'vh can- Icons rf whisky drunk. Prisoners have 'old in that the whihky barrels were open- cd, and they wero ordered to drink their till, and then to fill their canteens; consequently, tlicy fott 'ht like madujen, advancing their lines (four deep) right in tho face of rille shot, cani tor nnd giapo, that mowed them down in pilun.

The Irish brigade went into the rebel with si.irt sleeves rolled up, cheering lustily, and the comfort nnd enjoyment which they found in the fight was expressed in heir Irces to an nlmost ludicrous degree.

"They laid bold on one Simon, a Cyrenian iind on him they liid (he cross, that . ho ui:ght hear it after Jesus" I.uee xxiil. SO It has beat ingeniously remarked by ccrtr in Commentator that alt tha threo great portions of the then known world had a rep tesentative hand in tho death of Christ. Asia accused and delivered him, in the person ol the Jews; Europe judge and sen. tence him. io the person of the Roman Got tDOr; and Attica came afterwards bearing his cross, the person of Simon the Cyroman There is something significant in the very form of the narativo. And they laid hold on ' one Simon, a Cyrenian; and on him they laid the cross." As if one would say, Here ia fellow without rights, without buisnoss a stray chattel, to be oaught and impressed into any service among his bitters that may happen to want him. - He is good enough to bear the cross that will just do Tor bim And so on bim they laid the cross, that hp might carry it after Jesus. And so ever since, as ages have rolled on, Vrica has hoei following aftor, wearily car -'rying that cross. Wo talked once with a slave woman a "woman of noble figure and proportions; and of a soul grand and sweet as ever lived in a womanly fraino. She had fa girlhood farmed the resolution of celibacy, that she might not be a mother ol alaTes. Her miner had forced her to mar, ry, that she ight brng forth children for him to sell. And she had borne eighteen boys and girls, and had seen them said, one after another. "Ah, ma'am" she said. "I have borne this heavy cross many, many yoars." Bur there was in this great soul, with a full conscience tf ber wrongs, no revenge no resontnent Shu bnra the cross silontlv. in tho spirit of bim who went before her. Thoro came aback man to our house a few cUjs ago, who had spent five yoars at, hard labor in a Maryland penitentiary lor the crime ol having a copy ot Uncle Tom's Cabin in the house. He had bean seatencod for ten years but on his promise to leave the State and go to Canada, was magnanimously pardoned cut. Everybody cheated htm out o1 the lit-tlo property ho had. A man or whom he had cut sixty cords of wood, paid him two dollms fir the wbcle job another found a pretrtt to s-.'izj on his Ijtile house, and c he Itfi Maryland without any acquisition except t3 iiifiiniity ol the limbs which he had cmght from pria n labor. . Ail this was his p'irllou of ihe cross ar.d he took it mcekU. without rrmuiti t only atking that as they did m.t ralK w tim to finish reading the book, we wou!d givo him a cop ol Uncle Toiu's Cabin which we did. 7 bo cao speak tho multitude, the varieties of years and ugmies which have gT.e to make up that crosi? G id is reminding us no , by our own experiences, what some o! ithese woes may be like. Thousands of hemes now havo eyes that (ail in looking for sons that shall return no more. Thousands ol wasted, dismantled houses thousands of riven aud shattered homesteads make us a little aware in our. own hearts what the dark man bas been suffering for ages. For that silent Sufferer who walked before the Cyrenian is one who never forgets whose day of vengei.ee is the year ol his redeemed.Ue was the God, the Ring, the saccrifice, both of the Jewish priests, the Roman Gov. eraor, and the despised African; and the time ia coming when they that have suffered, must reign with him; Silently he sitsabovo and camly be looks down on the turbulent crowd of sonators, politicians, generals, soldiers, All surging to and fro in their blind and passionate endeavors, and every one of them in turn rex pudiating their black brother. ''I do not care ror the negro but I caro for 'th "wVtes" is now the very advance cry of those who take the side of Simon the Cyren Jan. At least let. him have the privilege of digging our trenches where whi te men can not work." "Ah, now, you have philanthropic views toward him. " shouts the opposite party. -"Look there, now, those men actually vre getting philanthropio." "Not a bit of it" Is the rejoinder; "only twenty thousand white men died in the trenches before Richmond, and I bad rather it had beon twenty thousand niggers that's ,11." But high above all sits the King who wore the crown of thorns. Let ns tremble at the vision of him which" the Apocalypse opeus: "And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and ho that sat upon bim was , called Faithful and True, and ia righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head wero many crowns, and be had namo written that no man knew but he himBclf. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: nd his name Is called the Work of God-And tho armies which were in heaven follow, ed bim upon white horser, clothed in lioon, white and clean, And out of his -mouth goeth a sharp word, that with it he should smite tho nations: and he shall rule thorn with s rod of Iron: and he 'readth the wine-press of the Qorceuess and wrath of At mighty Gad. And he hath on his vesture on his tbigk a namo written, KING 01' KINGS, AND LORD OF LOltDiJ" That awlul wine-pwii of the wrath of Almighty C!id; what Is it? wo can measure i ? . ; Who can measure the wrath of puro lovo, of sensitive tenderuos? the wrath of a fnthor or mothor'i heart that has seen its children crushed, scattered, wronged, cheated, torn with scourgos, pining with hunger, wastod with pain, through tho slow coming of ages? Fathers and mothers of this country! God loves the poor despised African as you loved those sous whose sufferings sick, wounded, mangled, prifloners, dying you mourn. The sons of the lonoly e!ove mother, torn from her to die in Carolina rice swamps, are precious in her eyes as your cons that died in the trenches before i Ichmond. And to that nation, despised and cast out, reviled, abborrod of all, God says, "Sinco thou hast been precious in my sight, thou hast been honorable, and I havo lovsdlbee: thorofore will I give men for tUe and people for thy life." How long must this people wait in thoir hardness and impenitence with this great ar roar of crime ond injustice unrighted? The time has come when the nation has a bight to demand, and the President of tho United States to decree their freedom, and there should go up petitions from all tho land that he should da it. How many plagues must oome on us be for o we will hoar that evident voice, '!Lot this people go, that they may serve me?" Must we wait for the tenth ond last? Must wo wait till thoro is not a house whore there is not one dead. The Lust Momenta of don. McCook, Captain Burt gives somo particulars of tho death of Gon. McCook. lis was passing from below the State line of Tenn6ssoo to Decherd, and being unwell he wa9 riding in an ambulance, about a mile In front of his br gade. When tho ambulance was fired upon by bushwbackoas and the nows was cm ried back, several companies dashed for ward, head"d by Captain Burt. When tnoy arrived at Potty's (arm hou-o, Drs. Gordon and Boyce both pr. nounced the wound a fa. tal odo. Ho was then vomiting blood. IIj was cool and calm to tho last, but suffered greatly, giving Captain Burt and others an account of tho assassination. While on tho road, Gen. McCook met a man in a ravine, and asked him II ho know a good place to encamp. Tho man told him ihero was plenty ol water cn the hill loyond, and seemed anxious to hurry him on. Arriving at tha top of the hill a shot was fired without effect. As soon as Gon. McCook heard the shot, he told John (his col-oied smvani) to turn back; that tho bush-nbacUrs nero uon then.' They stattcd baek'ai ull speed, General McCook leaning on his knees and assisting " the driver.' In the flight number of shots were fired Eleven i oles were found in tho wagon, Mc-Ci k receiving a single ball. Before tho fatal shot was fired, rib-I cavalryman ordered the wagon to halt, leveling the pistol across the horn of the saddle. Gen. McCook told tho drivor to stop, which the driver was is the act ol doing, when tho cavalryman ordered a halt the second time, ac companying the order with a discharge of the pistol, the ball piercing tbe General's side Capt. Brooke, of McCook 's staff, impl red the cavalryman not to shoot, assuring him the wagon was ocsupied by a sick man. Another bushwhacker rode up with a cccked pistol but McCook told him it was no use to shoot, that he was fatally woun led already. Capt, Brooke then conveyed MoCook to Petlj's houso. Recovering from a paroxysm, General McCook said to Capt Burt: ".ndy, the problem ol life will soon bt solved for ma." In roply to Father Betty, if he had any message to hia brother Aleck, be said; "Tel) him and the rest I have tried to live as a man, and die attempting to do my duty." To Capt. Burt be said: "My good boy, may your life be longer and to a better purpose than mine." Father Betty, the brigade wagon-master, was with him in his last mo merits. Clasping his band in tbe death struggle, he said to him: "I am done with life; yes, this ends it all. You aud I part now, but the loss of one thousand such lives as yours and mine would be nothing, if their sacrifice would but asvo'such a gov ernment as ours." Before his death Gen. MoCook sent for Col. Vandever, who drew up his will. In his will he directed that two favorite horses should be given to his brothers Aleck and Daniel, and the remainder of his property to his mother-It is known to Captain Burt and others of McCook's staff; that the Goneral was deliberately assassinatod. The suiter of the 9 Ih Ohio heard tho bush 'hackers arrange the plan for the assassination, but had no opportunity to communicate the in formation to McCook.-Zancsville Courier A ' Patriotic Woman. The Rochester Union gives the following account of an oc-currence which took place recently at a war meeting at Gasport, Niagara county. Tbe speaker bad been urging she womon to bring the men up to sign the roll, when a woman rose io the meeting and addressed her bus, band substantially as follows: "Ira, you know what you said teforo you came hor lj-n Ight that you would enlist, if you don't do it, jo straight borne and take off those brooches, and let ma have them and I will go mysolfl" This brought down the bouse, and biought up Ira, who put bis name down and became a volunteer. jFjTSince the war broke out. twenty men from the composition room of the Cleveland Horald have enlistod. Printers aro never wautiog io patriotism Negro Agitators. The Conservatives are tho moat pertinacious peraous iu tho world in forcirg peo-plu to discuss the everlasting ncigto-question. They refuse the nation any rest whatever from tie eternal monotouiy of the son; of Slavery. They raise Ihe cry ofnejjrol negro! negro' eoutlnually. If a tax ba proposed they fear that it will be unjustly burdoning slave property. If an expedition is to be made, tlicy fear that somabody'o slave will run off. If a rebel is at rested they fear that his negroes will become demoralized and dangerous without their master. If a black pilot should run oil' with a rebel vessel they dread re ceiving him, lest it eboulj encourage mil- away negroes. If a free school be openrd i ll.ft M t Ma t 1J 1 .... T. mo ucgiuua Buuum loarn miscniet. it a rebel's negroes bo found raising corn for tlio rebel army they aro opposed Io taking th- m for fear of disturbing the fjuaranlccs ot the Constitution. If a loyal man says that ho would Bee Slavery perish to save the Union, they tell you that such senti ments will incite the negroes to insurroc tion. If a solitary meaeure of peace or war can be proposed which your conservatism will not connect in some way or other with the negro question, we do not know what it can be. The most absurd thing in the whole matter is these same Ra Ileal Conservatives whoso "vety breath is agitation" and ho would become ostinct if Slavery wero distroyed, are forever complaining that other people will talk of Slavery. Those men, who sgilato from morning till bight, reproach others for agitating. VVo tell these gentlemen very positively that wo cannot nrd will not allow them to enjoy a monopoly of this agitation. If you are for tho Union and against tho discussion of slavery, then help us save the Union, nnd let slavery tnkc care of ilscl' amid tho fortunes of war. If ils violcnco and vicissitudes destroy it, let it be destroyed: if otherwise, Ihcu very well, but we cannot stop tho work of crushing out the rebellion to read Dred Scott decisions or Missouri compromises, oi Crittenden n solutions. We mean to kill out the re bellion. We mean to destroy all the ngencies used to promote and sustain the rebellion, aud wo don't intend to Btop orje moment to consider whether anybody's negro runs off on accouut of what we do. It is useless for conservatives to keep up this cry of slavery, Everybody now un deastands it as a stale (rick which means anything or nothing' Our firm belief Is that loyal men hav. something more important to attend to at present, than to bother Ihomt elves about the security of rebels' negroes. What Constitutes a Legal Tender important dooibiou. In the Philadelphia District Court, on Wednesday, a decision was given in the case of Shoenberger for use vs. Mussel-man & Watts, a brief notice of which, in view of the importance of the point in volved, may not be out of placejhero. The defendants, obligors in a bond dated November 26, 1861, in the penal sura of $56,231 78, conditioned for the payment of 28,155 89 in spec e, current gold of the United States of America, on the 1st of May, 1862, with lawful interest: in specie, current gold and silver money aforesaid, to bo paid half yearley for the samein tne city ot rnilladelplua. A war ratt of attorney for the samo date with tbe bond to confess judgement was annexed to tho bond. Under this warrant a judgement was entered on the day of the date of the bond, in tie Court of Common Pleas of Lancaater county. Ac cording to the usual practice, the judge ment was entered tor the penalty of the bond, and the reoord sets out tin condition also, verbatim. When the day of payment arrived, the obligors tendered to tho obligee the debt in'ereat and cost, in full, in the notes of the United States, which by act of Congress of Febuary 15, 1862, were mr.de a legal tender for all debts, cfco. The plaintiff refused to receive them, and had a fi. fa. issued, which the defendants asked to have set aside. The question raised was whether the plaintiff had a right, since the act of Congress of febuary 25, 1862. to require payment by dea fondants of gold and silver money, or was bound to accept the notes of the United States, which, by that act, were made a legal tender of the United states noles was sufficient answer to tho obligation in the bond, and the writ was set aside. A Brigade or Colorsd Union Men Applications bavo boon made by Maryland-ors to tbe Government for permission to rtise brigade of colored Union men in this city. What will Northorn doughfaces.afQictod with negrophadia, say to scoing 5,000 valiant soldiers of liberty, with colored skins, marching from a slave slate to help save tbe Union and crush out the slaveholders' robollion? This sight is reserved for their eyes mark what I say! An intelligent negro was askel a day or two ago whether be could raise a regiment of negroes in this city. '"Five of them" be promptly replied. !'And would thoy fight?" "Just try us!" was his answer. It only neods a soul stirring order from Pope.rpon Lincoln sounding tho tocsin , and black men wil spring from tbe earth like Cadmus'a host from the dragons teeth. JNo bounties will bo needod to fill UP thoir ranks. Baltimore Correspondence Evening Poet. Something to Stop tho Draft Ekidad-Uor;i.Tho following Ordjr has beon kiucd by the war Dj;)artin.int. Wa?.

Tho dead and wounded were a spcct cU , but the way tho liv. ing fought was terri'.la beyond description-The rebels were sent into battle vi'vh can- Icons rf whisky drunk. Prisoners have 'old in that the whihky barrels were open- cd, and they wero ordered to drink their till, and then to fill their canteens; consequently, tlicy fott 'ht like madujen, advancing their lines (four deep) right in tho face of rille shot, cani tor nnd giapo, that mowed them down in pilun.

Suoh fighting is not recorded in tho books, nor do I believe therr evtr was such to re ord. The Irish brigade went into the rebel with si.irt sleeves rolled up, cheering lustily, and the comfort nnd enjoyment which they found in the fight was expressed in heir Irces to an nlmost ludicrous degree. Wherever they went the rebels disappeared. The whole thing was amazing, nor can anywri ten descripti m express a thou-nnd, Ii part of it. Read tl e fallowing proclamation of a Dcm ocratic Governor.
