DECEMBER 4, 1962. —— — = = SPIRIT OF THE MORNING rxass. * The Intelligencer notices the mo-t prominent poiats in the President's mesaage, aod in r~ yiewing that part which relaice to the Emaaci- pation Proclamation saye: é “We are therefore irresistibly conducted 1 the conclusion tha the President does not in- tend to take any proceedings thider the prosia- mation of Iast September 224 which shall nave for their effect to defeat pepepically the expecta. tions he has founded on the Ption of his compromise. If he should feel hound to issue some tort of proclamation on the tet of January next, we anppose it will be easy so to frame ite phraseology as still to leave room for the more beneficent policy which he evidently has so devply at heart, and whose consummation he postpones to the beginning of the next century.” The Chronicle calculates that 93°6,79?,093.37 is thesum which has been expended for the war since the date of the President's sugges- tions of compensated emancipation, andargues that if this eum had been applied touch eman- Cipateon it is not probable the war would now exist. The Republican finds it necessary to “ex- pisin” aome more ahout ita remarkable topsy- turvical non-on-to- Richmond strategetical edi- torial of the other day. Evidently the Repws- Iscan is in a snarl. Hear it: «We do not say that General Burnside would be defeated if @ contest waa to come off at once; but we do say that our military authcrities ebould, when the trial hour comes, have ample forces in the immediate fight, wh. rever it may occur, and that there should also bea suMfvient Torce held for the defense of Washington, so that, in the event of any disaster to our army under Burnsid~, this city may «till be impreg- nabie” Ab! Ab! An! The Repudtican has all along favored scattering our forers in wild-gocs+ expeditions to Texas, Florida, «Nova Zembila and the Lord knows where.” Now it fears we ‘ave not forces enough in frontof Washington, and is for concentrating. — — + eee Tax Message —We do not p-reeive the in- congruilty between the President's late eman i- pation proclamation and his more recent mes. sage, with reference to the slavery question, apparent to the Vational Intelligencer and some other journals. The former proposes to declir® on the let proximo, the slavés in States, or cer- tain designated portions of States, then in reb-1- Hon, free; and promises at ihis session of Con- gras to recommend that due provision he mide from the National Treasury to compensate loyal sInveholcers in such States, or portions of States, for the losses they may incur throu:h the operation of his edict in question. The later (the mee-age) asks Congress to initiata mbasurrs at once to indemnify all States for the loss of property falling upon their citizens through thir adoption. previous to the year 1900, of his original gradual emancipation policy, including those States and portions of States pow in rebellion, which, having in time returned to their allegiance to the United States, shall abolich very within thir limits Previous to the period indicated—the year Inw. THR “AbsUsTMENT” STORY.—On Turs- day we publisked a paragraph found afiost amongst our exchangra, to the effect that Fer- nando Wood, at a r-cent democratic meeting in New York city, had made the statement that “he bad received intormation from dug statesmen in the South, and had covmuni- cuted it to the Government, that under cerrin circumstances the South were ready to return. “Bi: of } orttion snd influence in the South. ern Confederacy hrd expressed a desire to re. tern under a Democratic rule: the past to be foryotten, the public debt on both sides to be Provided for, and they were willing to let by- fae Le bygones, if the North would, and the Union once again he restored.” ‘We have made inquiries and have «atified Ourrelyrs that if Mr. Wood ever addrasned such information to the President it certainly bes vever reached him.
