r Negro Citizenship. The Confederate Democracy, in their bitter opposition to the Civil Rights Bill, boldly advocate the doctrine that Congress lias no power to declare who are citizens of the United States that power being reserved to tlie States and that any person born within a State, and made a citizen thereof, is also a citizen of the United States. - This argument was elaborated at length by Hon. Reverdy Johnson, in reply to Senator Trumbull's speech in defense of the Civil Rights Bill as against; the President's " veto: Mr. Johnson supported his position ,by decisions of the Supreme Court, and laid especial stress upon the opinion of Mr. Justice Curtis, in " the Dred Scott case, in which he declares " that under the Constitution of the United States, every free person born on the soil of a State, who , is a citizen of that State by force of the Constitution or laws, is also a citizen of the United States. , This Democratic view of citizenship under the Constitution goes further, perhaps, than its advocates are willing to concede. . Under the Jaws of Wisconsin, New York; and Massachusetts, negroes . are citizens; and hence, according to Democratic reasoning, are also citizens pf jtheUnited Stales and, consequently, there is no power under the Constitution to prevent. a , negro'1 citizen of those States from becoming President or Vice President of the United States, provided he should receive sufficient votes. The only qualification for President is that the aspirant shall be a p.atur14xn-eitizeTr of 'the United States,be thtjffiffe xcafspf age7 and

have ' been fourteen years a resident. 4 Massachusetts eitiyen of color uaooacnuseiis citizen 01 coior might comply With all these COndi tioiis., fYep WQ remember the many instances in which negroes have been brought forward by leading Democratic politicians fof minor eity "and countjr offices and IvotecU for, it" does not reqnire a very strong stretch .of the imagination to picture them, one of these days, nominating Samba or . Cuffee as

-i their candidate for President. "

General Carl Schcrz, in the Detroit Popt, argues thjf matter at length, deducing therefrom the following intteresting conclusions. W e commend them to our Democratic subscribers, who, in. the innocency of . their, souls, have imagined that their 1 party! occupies the only anti-negro ground, and that all who oppose? it are in fay or of negro equality and all that, bays the Post: , Y 'H';:'iiriUi These conclusions may not be eminently 1 wI Anaa nt j-v t1-a n iir"i r n 1 1 n n I iaw rnva Air ' ' the power to confer citizenship resides in the State, then the negro voter of Massaclusettsis a citizen; for the constitution lawg Qf tn0 stftte declare bim a eiH. zen. If the bower resides in the United States, Congress, in the Civil Rights bill, has declared him a citizen. And there is only one remaining loophole for the horri ned " Democrat and that is to adopt the aocirine mat, neuner me iate nor me nation can confer citizenship, but that it is a i gut 01 rroviaence. inis woma involve ' . i .1 t i .... .j t i . uui ici jJirAnj; i-fciiiuuiitLnjii icuus m uuuia er contradiction that citizenship is a right of birth; after all: and hence it is wrong for human law to interfere in the matter at all. and particularly to disfranchise any man whom Providence has endowed witu reason. - . , , Let it not be forgotten that the Democratic party has been in power- in the Re public for years ; that it might have altered the Constitution and settled this question, but never so much as stirred a finger or utterea a worn to tnat end ; ana tnat li mere is any aanger oi our naving a nearo rresiident, or seeing negroes in Congress, the Democratic party is responsible lor it. C. L. Vallandiqham, S, S. Cox, Dan. IVoorhees, and 1 Alexander Stephens, appears to Jac the,reeogt" nv 0 ey. STEPHENS, . in particular, seems t have constituted himself a judge of all 'the measures before Congress a)id ' lejr"raTiuu" IV ii wi'ttggg- fi'gily points ing out what tbe South will or . will , not agree to, and acting generally as I if this Congress was in power by the ; tolerance of the South. .

Mr. Sumner ' has given notice of his intention to offer a bill prohibiting any officer from receiving a salary whose appointment had not been confirmed by the Senate, but who still continued in office by permission of the President. It is intended to cover the case of the St. Louis J Postmaster, who retains the office after the Senate refused to confirm his appointment. Much is said about Radicalism and Conservatism. Many use the terms without clearly comprehending their meaning. In order th.it all may fully understand what those words mean as applied to the politics and parties of our country at the present time, we copy on our second page an able article from Harper's WteMy. Let all our subscribers read it and meditate upon its truths.
