Pope once jwrole an ‘‘Universal

and all classs. The following, which
we shall dub r lhe Publisher’s Prayer,
has almost as wide spread and univer
sal an application, and conies home
most- feelingly to our business and
bosoms, as we trust it may to those
of our penitents and patrons. A pub

But an cip a lion Proclamation.
The Galaxy for December contains
a paper written by Mr. Gideon Wel
les, which gives the history of Lin
coln’s Emancipation Proclamation.—
Mr. Welles was Mr. Lincoln’s Secre*
tary of the Navy, and speaks from
personal knowledge.
“The contrabands” were, from the
j beginning of the war, a source of great
I trouble to the truly loyal. By the
! Constitution, properly in slaves was
j fully guaranteed, and United States
| laws required the Federal authorities
| to re.no; eto their owners all fngitiv*
i no'-roes. As the war was waged by
!.. . r
: the \\ammgton functionaries wild
| loud professions to maintain and pre
* . .
>erve the Constitution, any mterfer
! once with the property in, or the sta
tus of, the negro, would be a flat and
patent contradiction of the avowed
objects of the war Mirny of the Fed
oral Generals deemed it their duty to
respect the Constitution and laws, and
they did so by sending back to their
masters the slaves that fled to their
camps. But, this proceeding excited
violent protestations from the fanatics.
“The orders (says Mr. Wells) of such
officers as General McClellan, Halleek
Dick and others, prohibiting the fugi
tives from coming within the army
lines, caused great dissatisfaction at
the North, without appeasing any at
the South.” Stimulated by this fa
natic feeling, General Hunter took it
upon himself to proclaim the teedom
of the slaves in South Carolina, Geor
giu and Florida. President Lincoln
promptly (18th May, 1862) issue 1 a
counter proclamation, annulling that
of Hunter, saying that the question of
freeing the slaves “I reserve to myself
and cannot feel justified in leaving to
the decision of Commanders in the
field.”
Lincoln, who had scruples ot con
science, appreciated the difficulties of
his position. He had taken nu oath
to defend the Union. The oath he
had taken was simply “to protect, pre
serve and defend the Constitution of
the United States.” To his plain,
! practical mind, it was rather an odd
way of preserving the constitution, by
disregarding its provisions and tramp
ling it under foot. He sought to get
around the difficulty by attempting to
get tire border States, Maryland, Ken
lucky and Missouri, to decree email
cipation of their slaves for which the
government should pay them. For
he again and again confessed that no
authority but that of the States could
touch the subject. A part of his
scheme was the exportation of the
negroes ; for he was thoroughly con
vinced that the two races, both free,
“could not dwell together in unity,
and as equals, in their social relations.
There was he thought, a natural an
tagonism between the whites and
blacks, which could not and ought
not to be overcome, lie therefore, at
an early period of his administration,
some time before his emancipation
proclamation was projected, devised
plans for the deportation and ooloniz
ing of the colored population. In
these various projects of deportotiou
and colonization, he was earnestly sus
tained by the Attorneys General, Bates j
the Postmaster General, Mr. Blair, j
and the Secretary of the Interior, Mr.
Caleb Smith.” Even when his einan- 1

| cipation proclamation was issued, de
: portation continued to be a favorite
j idea with bun, and he never abandon-
I ed it.
As to the motive which prompted
his emancipation proclamation, we are
told by Mr. Welles, “lie was goveru-
I ed not by sympathy for the slaves, but
j by a sense of duty, and the obligation
which, as chief magistrate, he owed
to his country.
It was not until after McClellans’
failure qn the Peninsula that Mr. Lin
coln recognized the necessity of abol
i. . J
| ltion to save the Government, lleeame
i to Harrison’s landing to visit General
McClellan and see for himself the con
dition ot the army. The uext Sunday
after his return, on his way to a fus
neral with Mr. Welles and Mr. Sew
ar.] in the carriage, lie,' for the first
time, indicated his purpose to proclaim
emancipation. “He saw no escape.”
And, in the language of Mr. Welles,
this humiliating confession was extol
led from his lips :
“We must free the slaves or be our
selves subdued.”
Tliat is, the great Federal authori
ty, backed by twenty-five millions,
would be subdued by the six millions
rebels, it they did not bring the ne
groes to their aid ! We suppose, us
Mr A elles records it, this must be
the verdict of history.
The quibble by which he got rid of
his oath “to protect, preserve and de
fend the Constitution” is thus given :
“If there was no constitutional au
♦
thority in the Goverment to emanci
pate the slaves, neither was there any
authority, specified or reserved, for
the slaveholders to resist the Govern
ment or secede from it. (?) They
could not at the same time throw off
the Constitution and invoke its aid—
Having made war upon the Govern
meat, they were subject to the inei
dents and calamities of war, and it
was our duty to avail ourselves of ev
ery necessary measure t.o maintain the
L nion. If the rebels did not cease
their war, they must take the conge
quences of war. He dwelt earnestly
on the gravity, importance and deli
cacy of#he movement, which he had
approached with reluctance, but he
saw no evidence of a cessation of hos
tilities ; said he had given the sub
ject much thought and had about j
come to the conclusion that it was a !
military necesity, absolutely essential j
to the preservation of the Union. We !
must free the slaves or be ourselves
subdued.”
Having thus satisfied his conscience,
that a wrong by the rebels justified
him in violating his oath, he called a
meeting of his Cabinet, Mr. Welles
gives the following account of the
proceedings:
“ Early in August—-it bus been said
on Saturday, and if so, it was, I
think, the 2d of that month—the
President called a special meeting of
the Cabinet. The meeting was in
the library of the Executive Mansion,
and not in the Council Chamber,
where the regular sessions were usual
ly convened. All were present except
Mr. Blair, who had gone to his coun
try residence in Montgomery county.
If I am not mistaken, Mr. Chase was
also, from some cause, absent from
the first meeting. The President
stated that the object for which he
had called us together was to submit
the rough draft of a proclamation to
emancipate, after a certain day, all
slaves in the States which should then
be in rebellion. There were, he re
marked, differences in the Cabinet on
the slavery question, and on emanci
pation, but he invited afrec discussion
on the important step he was about to
take ; and to relieve each one from
embarrassment, he wished it under*
stood that the question was settled in
his own mind ; that he had decreed
emancipation in a certain contingency,
and the responsibility of the measure
was his ; but he desired to hear the
views of his associates and receive
any suggestions, pro or con, which
they might make. He had, he said,
dwelt much and long on the subject,
and formed his own conclusions, and
had mentioned the matter in confi
dence to one or two of the members.
Little was said by any one but the
President. Mr. Bates expressed his
very decided approval, tut wished de
portation to be coupled with emanci
pat ion. He was, it was well known,
opposed to slavery. Though born in
a slave State, and always residing in
a slave State and among slaves, he
nevertheless wished them free, and
that the colored race should leave the
country. It was impossible, he said
for the two races to assimilate but by
amalgamation, and they could not
amalgamate without degradation and
demoralization to the white i ace. The
whites might be brought down, but
the negroes could not be lifted to a
•t)
much higher plane than they now oc
cupied. He bad been a close obser
ver of the influence of slavery on the
enterprise and welfare of the country
through a long life, had deplored its
| effects, and himself had given freedom
to his owu slaves, and wished them
and their fellows in Africa, or else
where than in the United States. He
was fully convinced that the two races
could not live and thrive in social
proximity. The result of any attempt
to place them on terms of equality
would be strife, contention, and a
vicious population, asinMexico. The
whites might be debased, but the
blacks co dd not be elevated, even
by the disgusting process of mixed
breeds, which was repugnant to our
! nature and to our moral and better
instincts. He therefore wished a
: system of deportation to accompany
; any scheme of emancipation These
: were also the President’s views.
Mr Seward, without expressing an
I opinion on the merits of the question,
thought it would be well to postpone
the whole subject to a more auspi
cious period. If the proclamation
were issued now, it would be received
and considered as a despairing cry —a
shriek from and for the Administration
rather than freedom. The President
instantly felt and appreciated the force
and propriety of the suggestion. We
had experienced serious disaters. Im
portant results were in the immediate
fut ure ; high hopes were entertained
from army operations under Halleek
and Pope, who had just taken the di
rection of military affairs. The Presi
dent at once closed -his portfolio and
suspended his proclamation, and all
further proceedings on the subject of
emancipation. Ido not recollect that
it was again alluded to in Cabinet
until after the battle of Antietam,
which took place on the 17th of Sep
lember—six weeks later.
As the disasters of the army under
McClellan were not retrieved by Pope
and Halleek, the subject was not re- !
considered until after the battle of
Sharpsburg. when the preliminary
proclamation was issued. On that
occasion “he expressed the sense of!
the responsibility he was taking, both j
to himself and the country. It |
had pressed him” —and well it might. !
It was the subversion of the Constitu
tion. Mr. Welles calls it; “Ados
potic act in the cause of the Union,
and I may add, of freedom.” We
realize to day the sort of freedom the j
despotic act lias inaugurated. But j
there was more in that act than any j
other in our history. It was the first j
act of confiscation of property —and j
the evils thereof will be seen and felt !
for a thousand years.
After the proclamation was issued,
Mr. Lincoln was earnest in his efforts
to inaugurate a scheme for deporting
the negroes. He considered deporta*
tion an integral part of his emancipa
tion scheme, and he adhered to it till
his death. This, however, failed, and
it may be, to the injury ot both races.
Says Mr. Welles:
“ Following the preliminary prod a
mation, and, as a part of the plan, was
the question of deporting and colon
izing the colored race. This was a
part of the President’s scheme, and
had occupied his mind some time be
fore the project of emancipation was
adopted, although the historians, bi
ographers and commentators have
made slight, if any allusion to it
The President, however and a portion
of his Cabinet considered them in
separable, that deportation should
accompany and be a part of the email
cipation movement.”
It will be a source of eternal regret
that the author ot this great revolu
tionary measure did not live to regu*
late its results.
Someone having asked Mrs.
Stanton if she thought girls could
stand the hard study of a college course,
got this reply : “ I would like to see
you take thirteen hundred youngmen
and lace them up, and hang ten to
twenty pounds weight of clothes on
their wasts, perch them up on three
inch heels, cover their heads with rip*
pies, chignons, rats and mice, and
stick ten thousand hair pins into their
scalps ; if they can stand all this, they
will stand a little Latin and Greek.’
Whereupon every Saturday remarks
that “ When one wants to have a par
ticularly neat thing said about women
the most judicious way is to get a wo
man to say it.”

Bill Arp on Dife Insurance.
“Bill Arp” has been “interviewed”
by several life insurance agents and
favors the public in his inimitable
style with his experience :
A friend (I suppose he was a friend)
found me and wanted to see me par
tikularly. He took me a little way
back and handed me out some lit
tle thumb papers, lull of figures, and
said he wanted to insure my life.—
That skeered me worse than anny
thing, tor it looked like I was in dan*
ger, and he had just found it out. I
asked him if lie thought there would
jbe a fight, lie explained things to
me, and I felt relieved, and declined
to insure for the present. You see I
felt mighty well, und coulden’t see the
necessity. At the next corner I met
another friend, who seemed glad to
see me exceedingly.
lie held my hand in his several
moments. lie axed me if my life
was insured He said he was agent
for the best company. He then ex
plained tonne that I might die at any
time ; that they didn’t undertake to
keep a man from dying. So I de
clined, but expressed my gratitude for
his interest in my welfare, and pro
mised to buy a policy as soon as I got
right sick. Just as I left him I heard
him call some pheller adurned phool.
When I got to the hotel there was
man waitin’ for mo on the same busi
ness! lie talked to me about au hour
on the uncertainty of life and the cer
aii.ty of death. I thought he was at
missionary. He seemed verymuch
concerned about my wife and child
ren, and once or twice wiped his eyes
with a pocket handkerchief. I kuow
cd he was a triend, aud told him I
would reflect seriously about the mat
ter.
I believe that company is a pureh
philanthropic institution and would
lend a feller a few dollars if he was j
suffering. I think I will try to bor
row from their agent to-morrow. This |
morning the first one come to see me :
agm, and I konkluded I was looking j
mity bad, and axed him to excuse me i
if I was not feeling well. I went
down to Dr. Alexander and got a dose
of salts. I told him I was sick, and
the reason why. lie told me all about
about it, aud said there was about
100 of them fellers in town, and they
bored a half inch at the first interview,
and an inch at the second in the same
hole, and so on till they got to the
hollow, and the patients give in and
took a policy. I don’t know about
that, but I will say they are the friend
best, most sympathizing, and kind
hearted men I ever struck only I don’t
like so much talk about coffins and
graveyards. I don’t like the salts.
Lincoln’s first stump speech.—
This is Abraham Lincoln’s first stump
speech. It was delivered at Papps
ville, about eleven miles from Spring
field. There had been au auction
sale, after which there was a small
: fight in which one of Mr, Lincoln’#
| friends got the worst of it. Where*
! upon Abraham stepping into the
i crowd, he shouldered them sternly
; away from his man, until he met a
fellow who refused to fall back ; him
he seized by the nape of the neck and
the seat of his breeches and tossed
him ten or twelve feet easily. After
athis episode—as charcteristic of him
as of the times—he mounted the plat
form, and delivered, with awkward
modesty, the following speech. :
“Gentlemen and Fellow citizens, I pre
same you all know who I am. I am
humble Abraham Lincoln. I have
been solicited by many of my friends
to become a candidate for the Legis
lature. My politics are short and
: sweet, like the old woman’s dance.—
. I am in favor of the eternal improve
| ment system and a high protective
I tariff’. These are my sentiments and
j political principles. If elected I shall
; be thankful ; if not, it will be all the
; same.”

Know Yourself. —A better subject
for young men to meditate upon was
never written than the following by
i Swift. “No man ever made au ill
figure who understood his own talents,
nor a urood one who mistook them.”
Young men do not fail in pursuits in
| life because they lack ability to sue*
j eced, half, as often as from the neglect
i to study the real calibre in their minds.
| A modern capacity, industriously di
j reeled, will accomplish more than a
wrong application of the most brilliant
qualifications. Study for yourselves.
Aim to find out the actual talents you
possess, and endeavor to make the
best use of them, and you can hardly
come short of making a good figure
in the the world, aud what is more,
being amongst those who live not in j
vain,”
A lady, who painted her face j

How to Dwarf a Town.
Horace Greeley presents the follow
ing as a sure means of destroying the
prosperity of tne most promising
towu :
“If you want to keep a town from
thriving, don t put up any more build
ings tUan you can conveniently occu
py yourself, if you should accidentally
have an empty building, and any one
should want to rent it, a*k three times
the value of it. Demand a shvlock
price for every spot of ground that
God has made you steward ship over.
Turn a cold shoulder to every median
ic and business man seeking a home
with you. Look at every ne\V com
er with a scowl. Run down the wojk
ot every new workman. Go abroad
for wares rather than deal with
those who seek to do business
in your midst. Fail to adver
tise or in any way to support your
home paper, so that people abroad
may know whether any business is
going on in that town or not. Wrap
yourselves up within yourselves in a
coat of impervious selfishness. There
is no more effectual way to retard the
growth ot a town than actions like
those enmerated, and there are people
in every town who are pursuing the
same course every day ot their lives,
and to whom the above remarks are
respectfully offered for their considers
tion.
What a Boy Knows About Girl^-
Girls are the most unaccountablest
thing in the world—except women.
Like the Ilea, when 3*oll have them
they ain’t there. I can cipher clean
over the improper fractions, and the
teacher says Ido it first-rate ; but I
can’t cipher out a girl, proper or im
proper, and } r ou can’t either. The on
ly rule in arithmetic that hits their
case is the double rule of two. They
I aro as full of old Nick as their skin
' can hold, and they would die if they
| couldn't torment somebody. When
the}* try to bo mean they arc as mean
as pretty, though they ain’t as mean
is they let on, except sometimes and
are they a good* deal meaner. The
only way to get along with a girl
when she comes at you with her non
sense, is to give it to her tit for tat,
and that will fiummix her, and when
you get a girl flummuxed she is as
nice as anew pin. A girl can sow
more wild oats in a da}*, than a boy
can sow in a year, but girls get their
wild oats sowed after a while, which
toys never do, and they settle
down as calm and placid as a mud
puddle.
But I like girls firts-rate, and guess
the boys all do. I don’t care how
many tricks the}* play on me—and
they don’t care either. The hoitytoit
yest girls in the world can’t always
boil over like a glass of soda. By-aud
by they will get into the traces with
somebody they like, and pull as steady
as au old stage horse. That is the
beauty of them. So let them wave, I
say, they pay for it some day, sewing
on buttons, and trying to make a de
cent man of the feller they have splic
ed on to, and ten chances to one if
they don’t get the worst of it.
They Read, But Don’t Pay.— An
exchange has the following : “It not
unfrequently occurs, when persons
aro asked if they will subscribe for a
local newspaper, or if they * already
take it, that they reply, “No, but
neighbor B. takes it and I have the
reading of it every week.” They are
benefitted every week by the toils,
perplexities, and expenditure:- of
those who receive nothing from them
iu return.
To which the American Newspaper
Reporter adds more at length:
“ The above truth should he copied
and re-copied in every country paper
until the trouble is abated. The pub
lisher of a newspaper, depending as
he does, in a measure, upon Ids sub
scription list for sapp >rt, naturally ex
pects each family who desire, to read
his paper to subscribe for it, if they
can afford it. Subscribers themselves
as well as publishers, find the news
paper borrower a first class nuisance,
for he often borrows it as the owner
is about to read it, retains it at cer
tain times when he misses it, aud too
often if he returns it at all, the paper is
in such a condition that no one of nice
sensibilities would car© to read it.
'<
SST" Two gentlemen having a dis
ference, one went to the other’s door
and wrote “Scoundrel” upon it. The
other called upon his neighbor, and
was answered by a servant that his
master was not at home. “No mat
ter,” was the reply, “I only wished to ,
return his visit” as he le.l hie name at
my door in the morning.”
