SATURDAY JUWS II, 1 m. The Great Mistake. The world, which is by no means infallible either in whole or in part, has, in the present day, made one of the greatest mistakes it ever blundered into. This is the egregious error of supposing that the recent civil war in this country liberated the negro; whereas it really liberated the white man. Years ago John Randolph asserted that the masters were slaves to the negroes ; and this was the truth. To provide for the blacks; to take care of them; to repair the damages from their neglect; husband resources their improvidence and recklessness were ever impairing ; to bear up under the general tendency to waste, exhaustion, and decay from their heedlessness and forgetfulness, their indolence and slovenliness- imposed upon all masters cares and labors that made them really slaves to the negroes. Aware that the master had to support them, they felt no concern as to how they were to live. Knowing that they had no right ot property in anything used to cultivate the place, and that if it were lost or destroyed they would not have to replace it, they bestowed no care upon it. The master had to care for all and provide for all. He had to look after the negroes, the horses, the cows, the sheep, the hogs, the wagons, the harness, the ploughs, the agricultural implements of all sorts, the stables, the barns, nay everything. Without the care and vigilance of the master and his white superintendent, there would have been little left after a few years. The very houses would have been burned down over their heads.Therefore the responsibility and care concerning these people, their coming and going, their working and support, were heavy and incessant. The master carried these cares with him to bed, he dreamed of them in his sleep, and the morning called him early to the renewal of the wearisome and and vexatious vigilance of his relation as master. He held an office of uncommon responsibility and one imposing the most arduous duties, with a compensation altogether inadequte to the duties and the responsibility it devolved upon him. The burthens thus borne by the master for the well-fed negro, who had no cares nor anxieties for the present or the future, were quite enough to show that this master was the slave, and not the negro who was called his property. But there is another phase of the relationship which adds strongly to this view of the subject. Slavery compelled the children of the planters and farmers to emigrate. The institution did not encourage commerce, nor trade, nor manufactures. There was little occupation outside of agriculture, and the negro was the laborer in that branch of industry; and, as it had been found impossible to work white and black together, the white man had to seek new fields afar off for employment and for success in life. The wealthy put their sons to the professions of law and physic, which were always overrun ; and which, while numbering in their ranks men who were ornaments of their country, contained others who were only fit for the lower order of occupations such as ditchers, cow drivers, farm hands, wagoners, &e.- in which they might have earned livelihoods and led exemplary lives. But being briefless and patientless, they fell into vices which are always convenient for the idle, and ended unprofitable lives by untimely deaths. Such fate, with its warning, seemed to be lost ; and the multitude journeying through life in this fashion was never diminished. This was the picture of too many who remained at home. And though it was a relief to turn from these to the cases of those good parents whose sons were driven by the institution to other States where they were successful, yet can we fail to sympathize with those dear old people who, in the evening of their days, were left alone in their charming old mansions, daily to pine over the absence of their children ? Every object in the house reminded them of those loved ones. The rooms they had occupied were tenantless and gloomy. Though not dead, they might never meet again ! Here was the master bereaved- bereaved for the negroes who dwelt on the same farm for generations, living socially and joyously in their quarters, which presented an appearance of contentment and ease running into frequent festivity, the like of which the world never saw, and will never see again ! Which was the slave- the white man or the black man ? We shall soon see.

There v> ere strong arguments lor slavery, and there are strong arguments to console us for its abolition. It was an institution forced upon us by Great Britain,: the mug. nitude of which was swollen by the horrible, nlave trade on the high seas conducted by the New England States ? a trade now denounced justly as piracy. It became our riglit, morally and constitutionally. It was our interest to make it humane aud profitable ; and this we also regarded a duty. We have faithfully discharged it. But the institution is dead ? everybody knows how ? chiefly, however, by the agency of the descendants of those who at one time carried on that traffic now made piracy,? and it is now our duty, as well as our interest, to look at the advantages of the revolution in labor and to make the most of them. e have been how the master was ill. deed the slave, and the black man the H petted and supported individual. It is W 22 ^ *22? ,beMflu to the white man from lib liberation: how much more econ. I omy and thrift he will be able to attain? how much more he will enjoy the remit* of his own labors? and bow cares and responsibilities are diminished. Hi* capj. tal, that was once secreted in the bodies of bis sJares, "so-called," be will now invest profitably in visible improvements, or in profitable tftocks, advancing his own wealth and happiness, and helping bis venerable Commonwealth towards power and grandeur. His sons, who were forced to leare their native State to find employment sad fortune elsewhj?k will remain with Mm, or near hn^ the areuues to occupation and indepen- j dence to all being newly unlocked. Here trill be a new social happiness for Virginians: a new power for their noble State. Her cbil4ren will rtand by her and help to build her up and make her great. She j tat 4m fin* ?M?b Aw 1

hcta IhLA q^f^noti^r h?!n> the " Mother of Sutea." I/et her aow be the mother of her own sons, and keep them at home; at least until she herselt may spare them without detriment. She has been long enough a mourner at the departure of her Itest blood ? at the expatriation of the flower of her household, who, with their energies and talents, an<l their means, were transported to populate and enrich other States, and to illustrate the pages of their history. The world has made a great mistake, j The irhiteinan was liberated, and he would not to-morrow put on the yoke again. Light Litkratckk.? On the first page of this morning's Dispatch is some reading re. lative to two prominent characters of these times, which may be entertaining. These two dignitaries are Judge Underwood and Mrs. Doctor Walker! The Doctor is decidedly the better of the two; she has only made the mistake of putting on man'* clothes instead of woman's, while the Judge has gotten on the bench instead of in the dock * We had always supposed that Richard Hknhy Lee was the author of the phrase applied to Washing ton ? 41 First in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen"; but our recollection as tr> the matter was not clear ; and accordingly when, a few days ago, we saw it stated in the Columbus (Georgia) Sun that Chief Justice Marshall was its author, and the statement fortified by a relation of the circumstances under which "the credit had been given to Mr. Lkk, we gave currency, if not Hill credence, to the statement. A reference, however, to the history of the phrase contained in 44 Marshall's Life of Washington'' will satisfy anybody that our first impression was correct. Mr. LEKwas himself the author of the resolutions presented to the House of Representatives by Mr. Marshall, in which the phrase oc- | curred. A Fenian View. ? A Mr. McBride thus makes a ship at the Government for prosej cuting him as a Fenian : 1 44 1 embraced the earliest possible mo. ; ment when my strength would enable me ; to leave my bed, and voluntarily went into j court and gave bail for my appearance t<> answer to the grave criminal charge ? prepared by u United States ofliccr ? of loving the land* I was born in !" And that is the very offence for which thousands of Mr. McBride's countrymen | have done their utmost to punish southern men. What a difference it makes when 44 your bull gores my ox !"

j Tiik Confederate Dead at Gkttysj Bi'RU. ? ' The Gettysburg (Pa.) Compiler, of June 1 1 , publishes a revised list of the Confederate dead that lie buried on the Gettysburg battle-field. The Compiler savs : " Tin- list has been gotten up for the purpose of enabling relatives to recover tlu ir dead with certainty, thus saving them the trouble and expense of a fruitless search alter those not marked. I>r. O'Neal has no direct or Indirect interest in this matter, i and is moved only by a common feeling of j humanity." The Third Section* According to Gkeelkv. ? The third section was substituted by the Senate for that whereby the House originally proposed a sweeping disfranchisement of all who, having once sworn fealty to the United States, gave thereafter voluntary aid to the rebellion. This 1 is now wholly given up; and the exclusion from ottice prescribed instead may at any I moment be annulled by a two-thirds vote of Congress. That vote is morally certain to be not long withheld, provided the ' country south shall return to loyalty and tranquillity. Every change as yet made in j the original proposition has been toward t greater magnanimity. If the south will now accord equal rights to her freedmen, \ we cannot doubt that the terms of restoration and readmission will be made as favo- 1 rable as she can ask or desire. ? Xeic York Tribune , 13 th. What Mr. Toombs Says. ? A lady, formerly a resident of New Orleans but now i en route to Europe, has recently written an j interesting letter to a female friend in this I city detailing an account of an interview i she had at llavaua with Robert Toombs, I ex-United States Senator from Georgia. Mr. Toombs still avows his intention of yet calling the roll of his former slaves at the j foot of Bunker Hill, and defiantly asserts that the invincible giant of secession is not dead, but only taking a quiet snooze in order to invigorate himself for another and, as Mr. Toombs hopes, a more successful attempt to overthrow the Government of the United States.? Washington Republican. j A Rebel Hustled Out. ? Last evening an incident occurred at the sword stand which is worthy of notice. A rebel walked up to the book and manifested a desire I to vote. Mrs. Barret requested him to ! write the name of his favorite candidate ' on a page in the book which was partly 1 filled with names. He declined, but turned i over a leaf and wrote at the top of the page the name of General Eweli, late of the rebel army. Mrs. Barret immediately tore out .the leaf, and he was instantly! seized by the bystanders and ejected from : the building. Another desired to vote for General R. E.Lee, but Mrs. Barret hastily ' closed the book and advised him to leave. ' declaring that Union orphans should not ' be insulted. ? Forney's paper.

IIow a Southern Lady Fares in Indiana. ? We hud the privilege of perusing a letter from a lady, and a real genuine southern sympathizer, from Lafayette, Ind. In recounting the mauy indignities she has had to endure, she says for the simple ac t j of wearing a butternut pin she was assailed from the pulpit and threatened that if she | was again seen with that pin, the preacher would appoint a committee of young la. i dies to tear it otf of her. Like a true southerner, as she is, she was not to be terrilicd by a bullying preacher, but did apj>ear I as usual at her church with that odious pin upon her bosom, whereuj>on this preacher of ineckuess and minister in holy things, did appoint said committee, but for some reason the pin was not displaced. I However, she immediately received a note , from the superintendent of her Sabbath school, requesting her to retire as teacher IVom said school, for the reason of wearing an emblem obnoxious to loyal citizens. Comments are unnecessary. ? Shenandoaft 1 I herald.

? ... . , III - I - CoiWiMnAtiox or IVi.iwiiure fW*Kins.? We learn tl>?t ? consolidation oT the three prat telegraph companies, the 44 American," the "United States," ami the 44 Western Union," has just beeli effected, ?ith ft joint capital of *.'>0,000,000. This gigontio concern trill now control every wire in the Union, with the exception of the single route between Washington and New York. It has some throe thousand ollicos, and the monopoly of the J right of way over every railroad line In the United States. The length of wire of I the comolidated companies is ninety thou- j sand mile*, uud the amount of business j done by the companies last year was i $4,420,260.88. It would seem that this consolidation ends all hopes of any sueeesst'ul rivalry against such a colossal monopoly, and we hear already that a raise of telegraphic tolls is threatened. This is bad news for the newspaper folks and the public generally, thongh it may be true, as stated, that tin* three lines could not be run in competition without heavy loss. ? Washington Star , \lilh. Girdling tiik Earth. ? General E. S. Sanford, president of the American Telegraph Company, sailed to-day for Europe, to make arrangements for making telegraphic connection with the Atlantic tel/i, graph when it shall reach our shores ; unit* also to push forward the work of laying a submarine telegraph from Florida to Cuba. It is proposed to continue the line from Cuba to the coast of South America, and have the whole work completed this fall. The telegraphic wire already stretches from London to the Amoor river, and from the Atlantic to the British Possessions on the north Pacific. The missing links in the circuit of the earth will, in a few months, doubtless be supplied. ? ]\*a.shhv/ton Star, 13th. MARRIED. In Baltimore, on tin* Uth infant, by the Rev. l?r.
