THE PEtlll. OF TIfE HOUR.
The Itepublie is now in its worst peril eince tilt
•utbrenk of tliu Wnr. To disguise it is not only use
less, btil criminal. A month ngn, public feeling wn;
in pond cheer, from expectation ol victory. Tn-iiay,
universal annioty prevails. The shadow of a great
defeat rcali upon lim face of affairs.
Ily common consent, Richmond was to have been
ta&en. Nobody spoke of n reverse i few thought ot
it. Costly fireworks were put up in this city to celt*
hrnlc llie victory, on the Fonrlb. of duly. Thong
there bail been a bri.ik sword-plnj oferiticieui ovc
McClellan's plan of operaliona, yet nobody aecuicd 1.
dnubt that, ejtber by n yood plan or a bad one. b
would cjtplurc Richmond. Cut wu hull. iucteMi
seven brilliant disasters in the 1'en insula, which, like
the electric links round n I.e.yikn jar, gave the publi
niind a Blsggerinp, shock. Nor has it yet recoveret
Tho sense of defeat, though less exciting to-dov, i
more oppressive than on ihe Fourth of July. Tbe
magnitude, oi" Ihe disaster is more clearly seen, and
tho delay which it brings upon the wnr more severely
fell. A new Napier will write lie history ol a new
l'euinsulnr wnr, whose only result lias been lo show
how Richmond might have been taken, but was not,
nnd perhaps is not tu bo.
The lexicons will hereafter note a new definition of
n blunder : it means strategy.
Consider ! The suu never shone u|ion such an srniy
ns tl.i- nation gave to Geo. McClellna. Did we not
see regiment after regiment crowding lo Washington,
tilt the holiday parades were grander limn the spec-
tack* or Paris or Prussia T Did not tbe bug lines ol
tents stretch for miles up and down the Potctuae,
gleaming like snow ia the sun ? It was nn army so
well. equipped that no critic could pick n llntr; its
supplies were ao lavish, Unit, lor .. wbito.mibto^Yiis
took ou the novelty of primal luxury ; its discipline
was so thorough thst men said, oilier armies might
lose battles, but this would be invincible. Vet, ni
u itbst.'tinliiig nil our rose-colored hopes, I tie firm
-Arniyol the IVtomsr has wnllered the grcnlestdcfe
of ihe war.
The i|ueslion nrises, IF7iy/
There is a plain answer. Nor does Ihe. nnsn
concern itsell elm ill with tin- blunders of n military
enmpnign. It matters little whether lbo individual
blame belongs to the White House on Paainnkey
River, or lo tbe While House on Pennsylvania
nuc. What concerns lbo nalioa to heed is, Ihu army
thai set out tn Richmond hnd but half an errand in
going, and tJod stopped it on llie wie. Cr.miois.siiiiied
of Divine Providence to curry forward tbe causo of
Fi-iicdnui.il wits disobedient to llie bejivenl) vision. anil
was smitten on tbe high roud. Tho grand army was
defeated, not because it was not reinforced, not be-
cause it changed its base of operations, but because
it did nol strike for n victory such ns fled counted

military haso or operations, it would o..i !,, v. been
abandoned oflhcliod of Unities, bind it culicncljed
itself in Eltrnnl Justice, it could never have
sunken.
Rut the blow against Itu.hmond was too carefully
aimed : it wns meant In destroy the Rebellion n
save Slavery. Cut with (lod, the greater rebellion of
the twnin is Slavery If that bn struck down, I
nther Inlls nf itself. Whatever necks to presei
slavery—even lliough it be a Federal nraiy—Hod
himself will destroy. When tho plans of the govern
ment and the plans of God arc nt variance, lb
crumbles a Grand Army naif il were clay, and brenki
a jVfnjnr-Geiiernl in pices Jike n poller's vessel. Iii
baa brought two enemies fact) to race, not for tho chief
purpose of fiiving victory lo cither, but fur working
out the freedom of an oppressed race, despised ol
both. Tho solemn lesson of our lalo disasters i
and the President and bis lienerals should lesrn
that no strategy, cither political or military, can
cumvent Eternal Justice.
The plainest sign of the t.nics, therefore, is, that
the Wnr Department, with all its armies, cannot
both the Republic and Slavery. The betlei
ol die people have seen this lor souio lynu;
the government is still almost blind. If the
iioo fienso of the free masses of tie North could
liavu shaped the war-policy of the Administration
rear ago, we might lo-day have beta ringing
hells of peace. lias tho hour to strike been
iting ? So fur back as Ihe insult to Sumler, the
Ring indignation ol nil loyal hearts offend a
(0 on which tbe government might triumphantly
launched Einsncipntion. The proclnmatii
moot was another opporlunily. The memornhle

itenttcd audience at Lyceum Hall, Stilford, Man.,
Sunday, 13th bit. The impression made was one of

thLs ontl-slavery mission from Ihe ovcitetucnl created
the qiIdJi of thoie whose hearts are full of hatred to

. P. obtained thirteen nun mbicriben to Trie Stuc-
Dj«n, which I regard is no small work, especially in
ur town, where not a single copy, I think, tin prv-
lously beeo taken. I send you the following Sketch of
ho ci'ciiiiic: lector.*, reported by Mi us Clu-ever. ol West
Vrentliaio. 1 nm sure your readers will citc-tm it s
prlvlleun to rend iheio wonls of truth and timely n**
lo a guilty people, in this hour of our strife and

speak of it? Who will give heed'
nol tho President, who, ol all otbei
should he moist eager to know. Tbu only remninit
lethod is oue which Kentucky disapproves, nnd
therefor.' the President disallows. Kentucky
rules Mr. Lincoln nn South Carolina lately ruled Mr.
Riicbanm.
It ha. been noticed that a nurse who tends n si
child oilenliiues will sleep through all Iho clang o
ily fire-bell, yet if lbo child murmurs, will nn
.
So, while half the North is sounding
Iho President's ears, be sleeps ; nor wnkes
Ihe whimper of Kentucky,
earn two great reasons why llie present policy
cannot erowu Ibe wnr wilh a victorious ponce : Di
because we need Ihe great Third Army—the unetil
cd Four Millions ; and second, bceausu wo r.ecrf to i
heartily lo our side. God is for tbe sli
Bret, and McClellnn afterwards. Wo need the all
quickly, that tiod'« sure blessing may
follow. How shnlllio be induced to come I* A Mcm-
of Congress lately said to Ihe Bouflo: "Fifteen
thousand white men killed nn Ibe Peninsula I Would
been boiler lhat black men bad been
IterC instead!" This is too uninviting n way In ask
volunteers— oven with black skins. Tho War
Department has just Issued a bulletin to employ
negroes as military laborers. Why has not the Sccre-
iry, nr the President behind him, courage enough to
nay soldiers 1 Is it possible that the cjovcrniuent
does not know the one way, and the only way , to enlist
the negroes? Must it be lold that in talking lo Ibe
ignorant and lowly il must use plainness ol speech?
tinfiscaiion is a word hard for a slave to undcr-
ust ieniadeeo plain that u nu, taring man. though
fool and n contraband, cannot err therein. Congress
iving failed lo pass a simple edict of Kmnncipa-
tion, it is now the President^ duty to wrile Ihe word
with his own hand. This is llie only way lo enlist Iho
blacks. Rut Ibis will enlist them in Hocks nnd mul-
titudes— in regiments and armies. It will be the
speediest way of answering the President's requisi-
tion for JOO.OtiO more men. Ofcourse.it involves tho
disagreeable* punposilion Mini negroes are men. Rut,
conceding this point to the. emergency of the hour, let
(Jen. Butler mid the tiew.i tu the plantations or Lou-
isiana, Alnbntria.nnd Mississippi, let Gen Ruetlsend

let Port Pick*
eim hang out Ihc notice on her weatlier-stnined walls ,
let all these camps and strongholds be made recruiting
stations— nlfering each recruit the bounty of Iretdoiii
—And ihe President's requisition will bu speedily
tilled without n draft; and history will witness an
act of poetic justice in watching how gran illy the
negroes will whip their masters.
The Tuscans have a proverb, lhat summer ia the
friend of the poor. Rut we have learned a lesson ns
IniO ns a proverb, that summer is tbe enemy of the
