Our cause must never be abandoned it is tbe cause of free in-etituttons and self governmeut. The Coneu-tution and Union must be preserved, whatever may be the cost in time, treasure, and blood.- 1 1 secession's sucoessful, otherdiseolutioiis are clearly to be seen in the future. Let neither military disaster, political, fact ion.,! or foreign war shake our settled purpose to enforce the equal, operation of the Taws of the Uidted States upon the people of every Suue.,;The time has cotne when the Government must determine upon a civil and military, policy, covering the whole ground of our national trouble. Tlie ice onaibility .of determining, ,decariiig and sn'i porting uch rivil and tuilitary policy, and of directing.'tbe wliole course of uatiouat atlaira in regard to the rebellion, must now te assumed and exercised by you or our cause will he lost. . The Constitution gives you pow- er nffic eiit even for tbe present terrible exigency.. This rebellion baa assumed the char acter Of war : as such it should be ' regarded, and it should he conducted upon the, highext principles known to Christian civilization. Ii should not be a war looking to tbe subjugation of tbe people of any State on any event. It should no' be at alt a war upon population, but against armed forces and" political organization. Neither confiscation of ptoperty, political executions of persons, territorial organi-Xatirms of States, nor forcible abolition of slavery should bo contem placed for a moment. In proseca ling the war all privata property and unarmed persons should be strietly pro-teetedi subject Only to the necetity or military operations. All 'private property taken for military use should be paid or receipted for ; pillage and waste should be treated as high erimes, all unnecessary trespass sternly prohibited, and offensive demeanor by the military toward citizens promptly rebuked. Military arreats should not be tolerated except in places where active hostilities "exist, and oaths not required by enactments constitutionally m-ide should be neither demanded r.or received. Military governments should be confined to the preservation of publio order , and the protection Of political rights. Military' power should. not be allowed to interfere with the relations of servitude, either, by sapporting or impairing the authority of the master, except lor repreeaing disorder, aa in other cases. Slaves contraband under the act of Congress, seeking military protection, should receive' it. Tbe right Of the government to appropriate permanently to its own service claims of slave-labor should be asserted, and tbe right o, the owner to com pensai ion therefor shouid be recognized. Thia principle might be extended apon groonda of military necessity ahd security to all the eleven within a particular State, thus working manumiaaion in such State ; and in Missouri, psrha pa in Western Virginia; also , and possibly even in Maryland, the expedien cy of such a measure is only noeetion of time. . . A system of policy tbua .eonatitutlonal and conservative, and pervaded by the influence of Christianity and freedom, would receive the support of almost all truly loyal men, would deeply impress the rebel masses and all foreign nations, and h might be humbly hoped that it .would .commend itself to the fkvor of the Almighty. . Unless the principles governing the future conduct shall be made known and a p- proved, th e-effort ta obtain requisite force will e almost hopeless. A declaration of radical viewtv especially npoa slay cry,, .will rapidly disibtegrale our present armies. The policy pf the government must be aupported by con-centratioiwi of military jjower.

Our cause must never be abandoned it is tbe cause of free in-etituttons and self governmeut. The Coneu-tution and Union must be preserved, whatever may be the cost in time, treasure, and blood.- 1 1 secession's sucoessful, otherdiseolutioiis are clearly to be seen in the future. Let neither military disaster, political, fact ion.,! or foreign war shake our settled purpose to enforce the equal, operation of the Taws of the Uidted States upon the people of every Suue.,;The time has cotne when the Government must determine upon a civil and military, policy, covering the whole ground of our national trouble. Tlie ice onaibility .of determining, ,decariiig and sn'i porting uch rivil and tuilitary policy, and of directing.'tbe wliole course of uatiouat atlaira in regard to the rebellion, must now te assumed and exercised by you or our cause will he lost. . The Constitution gives you pow- er nffic eiit even for tbe present terrible exigency.. This rebellion baa assumed the char acter Of war : as such it should be ' regarded, and it should he conducted upon the, highext principles known to Christian civilization. Ii should not be a war looking to tbe subjugation of tbe people of any State on any event. It should no' be at alt a war upon population, but against armed forces and" political organization. Neither confiscation of ptoperty, political executions of persons, territorial organi-Xatirms of States, nor forcible abolition of slavery should bo contem placed for a moment. In proseca ling the war all privata property and unarmed persons should be strietly pro-teetedi subject Only to the necetity or military operations. All 'private property taken for military use should be paid or receipted for ; pillage and waste should be treated as high erimes, all unnecessary trespass sternly prohibited, and offensive demeanor by the military toward citizens promptly rebuked. Military arreats should not be tolerated except in places where active hostilities "exist, and oaths not required by enactments constitutionally m-ide should be neither demanded r.or received. Military governments should be confined to the preservation of publio order , and the protection Of political rights. Military' power should. not be allowed to interfere with the relations of servitude, either, by sapporting or impairing the authority of the master, except lor repreeaing disorder, aa in other cases. Slaves contraband under the act of Congress, seeking military protection, should receive' it. Tbe right Of the government to appropriate permanently to its own service claims of slave-labor should be asserted, and tbe right o, the owner to com pensai ion therefor shouid be recognized. Thia principle might be extended apon groonda of military necessity ahd security to all the eleven within a particular State, thus working manumiaaion in such State ; and in Missouri, psrha pa in Western Virginia; also , and possibly even in Maryland, the expedien cy of such a measure is only noeetion of time. . . A system of policy tbua .eonatitutlonal and conservative, and pervaded by the influence of Christianity and freedom, would receive the support of almost all truly loyal men, would deeply impress the rebel masses and all foreign nations, and h might be humbly hoped that it .would .commend itself to the fkvor of the Almighty. . Unless the principles governing the future conduct shall be made known and a p- proved, th e-effort ta obtain requisite force will e almost hopeless. A declaration of radical viewtv especially npoa slay cry,, .will rapidly disibtegrale our present armies. The policy pf the government must be aupported by con-centratioiwi of military jjower.
