The Great Political QueMioh. The great political question of the hour is that made between the President and Congress as to the admission of representatives from the Southern States. This is a question that may yet Involve the peace of this republic. There will be a limit to the forbearance on the part of the people toward the rump Congress, that, by its tyrannical action for partisan purposes, is committing a high handed, lawless outrage upon the people of eleven States of this Union, whereby the welfare of the nation is put to hazard, and its reunion ever hereafter jeopardized. President Johnson, elected by the Republican party, declares that the eleven States mentioned are members In the Union, and as such, are entitled, at any and all times, to representation in the Congress of the Union. He admits that each House of Congress may judge of the qualifications of the individual membcis sent to it for admission. That power the Constitution gives. He admits each |louse may refuse the admission of single individual members for sufficient cause, and may expel individual members after admission, for sufficient cause. Such is the conceded constitutional power. Johnson says that when a member presents himself, with a regular certificate of election, and oilers to take the oath to support the Constitution of the United States, he iaprima facie entitled to admission. He says, further, that while each House may thus pass upou the qualifications of individual members, it is uot in the power of either or both Houses to say that a State, as such, in this Union shall not have representation. In this the Democrats agree with him. If this Republican Congress can say that the State of Tennessee shall not be represented in Congress at all, because a majority of Congress do not like the notions of the people of Tennessee, a Democratic Congress next year may say that the State of Massachusetts or of Ohio shall not have representation in Congress at all, because the notions of the people of those States respectively may not l)e liked by a majority of Congress. Such is the position of the Republican President. Now, how do the Republican party that elected him, but daily threaten to assassinate him, meet his position? Different portions of tliein meet i t by differ-
ent positions.
One fragment of tlie Republican party meets the President with the assertion that the Southern States are out of the Union. Very well; then, how did they get out? They did not get out by the war, for in that they failed. If they arc out, then it is because they got out by virtue of the civil acts of secession, or they have been put out by the exclusion of the Republicans since the war. If they got out by the civil acts of secession, then of course the acts of secession were valid operative ones; and if so, the doctrine of secession exists, and any and every State may legally secede. And if so, it further follows that tile acts of secession by the Southern States being legal and effective to take them out of the Union, the war was a wicked invasion of those foreign States, and they are now cruelly conquered foreign territories. Such is the logical end of this position. But if it is deuied that these States got out by war or secession, then, if they are out, as some of the Republicans assert, they arc out by the act of the Republican party in forcing them out, which they really do by denying them the privileges of the Union; and the logical end of this position is that the Republican disumonists have broken up the Union. Another fragment of the Republican party says the States are dead. But how cau a State die? There the States arc; there are their territories, their peoples, their Governors, their complete corporate organizations, and there they have been during the war. Corporations cau scarcely die a natural death. The citizens of those States committed no treason to their State Governments; never let them die by lapse, and there they now are, in full view, actually in life. Changes of officers, or even Constitutions, do not kill States. Not thus easily do they perish. Few adopt the doctrine of dead States. Others of the Republicans say the Southern States have been in rebellion, and hence, have no right to representation; but rebellion does not, per se, deprive a State of a right t* representation. There was rebellion in Massachusetts, in Pennsylvania, in Ohio, in Indiana, In ' Georgia, in South Carolina, but still the States were net excluded from representation in Congress. But, said a Republican member of Congress to us, you must admit there was a time during the rebellion in which the Southern States were not entitled to representation; this admission being made, we claim that it is for Congress to declare when the time of exclusion shall cease. Now, we do not admit there has been a moment since the Southern States first entered the Union in which they were uot entitled to be represented in the Congress of the Union, by men qualified and willing to discharge their duties as members of Congress. If tiie South refused to legally elect and send forward members, she, by her own act, would go unrepresented; or if she did elect men who were disqualified, and send them forward, each House of Congress could, for cause, refuse admission of individual members, or expel them If they proved unfaithful to the country after admission. But there never has been an hour in which any State in the Union has not been entitled, as a State, to representation, by men legally elected, who would be individually true to the Union and the Conetitution. And when a State elected such men, the very fact 'of such election would be ail tbe evidence of loyalty that could be exacted. Congress has no such supervisory power over States as Is claimed. Another ground in answer to the President’s position is taken by the Republicans, via: that it was for Congress, not the President, to reorganize the States; and as the President did reorganize them, they ought not to be represented. But wh«K is the authority for saying that Congress had a right to reorganize the States?
» i Whcrejs the provision ef the Constitution, of I i»lfc«'t Congress, a Rodent in history,
showing that Congress could reorganize States? The truth is, probably, that neither Congress nor tbe President had a right to rehi’g&nize the States. States organize themselves; but, no matter who may have reorganized them in the present case, or whether they needed reorganizing, they are now organized, are liviug States in the Union; this is the only end required to be reached; the States themsolve* do not complain about the manner; it was their business, and the Idea of refusing the Southerh States representation, on a puuctilo, on the ground that they came into form through tiie agency of the President, is an al>-
, - MKdltoU. Wd involves the necessity of
overthrowing the present States, and the creation Of new ones by Congress, befbr* which can be accomplished, the republic ends a consolidated military despotism. One more general ground is taken by all the Republicans, and it is the really controlling point in the case, and that la, that if the Southern States are admitted into the Union, they
will:
1. Vote against us disunion Republicans, thus throwing us Into the minority, and shearing us ef our power. 2. Vote to confirm Johnson’s coufirma,Umm. : ., V J. vote for him fpr President. Vet* to repudiate our public debt or to -MiUkttdfcU •• •^ri^itvnA thnir«! iMumetneirfl! mu 02™* i

Expel Stevens, Sumner A Co., from Congress. 7. - The admission of the Southern States, before We have changed the Constitution, so as to deprive them of power or make them negro States would result in defeating our radical candidate fbr President, and in driving us out of the public treasury! These are the real grounds, with tbe Republicans, for excluding the Southern States from the Union. Tbe radicals want a little sectional Union that Thad. and New England con carry in their pockets, or none at all. Scenes on Site Care Between Bichmond and Washington. Os’cene 1. A Colonel with shoulder straps among the passengers. Conductor calls upon him for the fare. Colonel replies: I have transportation, sir; I am a military officer. Conductor: Let me see your transportation. Colonel: I shall not do it, sir; it is enough for you that I am a Colonel in the army, and tell yon I have transportation. Conductor: My orders are to collect fare of all persons who do not show authority to ride without paying. Colonel: I show my transportation to no damned rebel and traitor. Conductor: You must show your transportation, pay fare, or leave the train. Colonel: I shall do neither. Conductor retires. Scene 2. Conductor, with three white and two colored persons, enters the car, approaches the Colonel. Demand for exhibition of transportation repeated. Insolent refusal by the Colonel. Conductor, to his attendants: Put this military gentleman off the train. Attendants advance. Colonel: Don’t you lay hands on me; I am a government officer, and have authority over you damned traitors; and I shall ride in this car without accounting to you. Conductor. Put him off the train. A passenger intercedes. Colonel, as a gentleman, you ought to show your transportation, it you have it. The conductor is only doing his duty. The colonel swears refusal. The attendants commence the laying on of hands. The transportation conies out of ,the colonel’s pocket. The conductor is satisfied, retires followed by attendants, muttering: these insolent upstart shoulder strap tyrants—can’t ride over every body, every where, forever. Moral—Some shoulder straps in tbe South do not much increase peace and good will on the part of citizens. Perpetual Session of Congress. , It "/as understood at Washington that if the Republicans could get uo compromise out of the President, they would make the session of Congress perpetual so as to prevent his appointees obtaining their offices. We were told this by leading Republicans. We suggested to them the question of individual expense. They replied that the Senate could and would consent that the House might adjourn for long periods of time, while a quorum of the Senate could be kept in session without a great deal of inconvenience; the members interchanging in visits home, etc. This appeared to be the settled Republicau programme, and we have no doubt it will be carried out, as we arc quite confident the President has determined upon no compromise with traitors, as he holds the leading Republicans to be. The Republicans admit the President can remove officers without the consent of the Senate, thus vacatiug the offices, but he can not, as all know, appoint successors while the Senate is in session, m cases where the appointments have to be confirmed by that body. He can only make such appointments in the vacation of the Senate session. Hence the spiteful object of the continuous session. The Republicans assign one other reason. They say if the Rump Congress should adjourn the President might invite up the Southern members and the Democrats from the North, who, getting possession of the Hulls, the two bodies thus formed might recognize each other and be recognized by the President as the Congress, and thus put an end to the Rump. We have heard this grouud urged bv the Republicans. Indemnity tor tUe Paat—Mecurity for the Future. This is the motto of the Journal, as to the treatment of the Southern States of this Union. It says this was the doctrine toward conquered Mexico. The Journal thus, to the fullest extent, adopts the doctrine of Thad. Stevens and denounces that of the President in the premises. The Journal adopts the doctrine that tbe Southern States are conquered foreign territories—are out of the Union, have no rights as States, and lie at the mercy of tbe radicals. This is exactly the doctrine of Thad. Now, for President Johnson. He says the States are in the Union, and being so, are entitled, by the Constitution, of right, to representation. That no portion of the States in the Union have the power to put other equal States in the Union under conditions. The Constitution knows no such proceedings. The whole question lies here. Are the Southern States in the Union or out of the Union? If they are in, they have representation, not by favor, but by right. If out, the Union is broken up. Johnson says the States are in and have a right to representation. The Journal and Thad. say they are out; that the Union is broken up, and the South a conquered province. Yet the Journal and Postmaster Conner support thePresideut! Pshaw! Out on hypocrisy 1
Tlte City AdministrationIt is the general opinion that the administration of this city, carried on, it might be inferred from some circumstances, in partnership with the houses ol ill fame, is the meanest and most contemptible ever imposed on white men. It greatly injures the trade of the city. We learn this from many sources; but we say to our Democratic friends over the State to be patient A better time is coming. We will have a Democratic Legislature next winter that will pass a civil rights bill, protecting decent people, while sojourning here, from the low, infamous, pimp style administration that bos hitherto prevailed. Tke Democratic Party. The Democratic party will not surrender Its organization, and enter a new one. The Democratic party supports principles; and if, In supporting principles, it finds itself in harmony with other organizations or individuals, why it tolerantly co-operates with them in carrying out principles. The Democratic party is against the infamous test oath; is against excluding Southern Representatives, is against the twang-nosed Praise God Barebone radicals; so is President Johnson. Hence, he and the Democracy, in following principle, happen to run together. The Two P. M’s. We ask the people to closely investigate the question of relative lawlessness between P. Milligan and P.

STRING.
In til climates spring is beautiful, in tbe South it is intoxicating. The clime here is not so capricious as in more Northern localities, and already spring has come solliug in with a steady genial, sunshiny pennon nailed to its mast. The mornings are bright and beautifal, and as we inhale the pure, fresh air, the bloodis caused to leap with thrilling pulse through our veins. The flagrant flowers of the lilac are now unfolding themselves, and their sweet fragrance is diffused over hill and dale. The pink blossoms of the peach tree have faded and gone, and the delicately tinged flowers of the apple arc struggling through the dense foliage of the trees. Children are let loose from the nursery, and arc to be seen romping and playing on the green sward as frolicsome and free as so many young lambs, and the gleeful carrolling of their merry voices is a rapturous sonnet of welcome to the season.
TENNESSEE LEGISLATURE—POLITICS. On the morning of Thursday last, at eleven o’clock, a quorum—fifty-six—was obtained in the House of Representatives of this State, and a majority of the members present ordered that the franchise be put upon its final vote, and it passed. This result was obtained by an infamous piece of political trickery and fraud, which would have done credit to that more pretentious assemblage—the Congress of the United States. The Senate has not yet taken action on the bill, from the simple fact that they are unable to obtain a quorum, and only meet each morning for the purpose of adjourning over until the succeeding day. More is to be expected, however, from the upper branch, and as it requires tbe joint action of both Houses to make this bill a law, 1 think it is in rather a MHious condition. The action of the House in passing this bill is only the beginning of the villainous acts the radicals intend inaugurating, for the purpose of sacrificing every interest of the State to their own passionate lust for power and supremacy. Who are a majority of the men that compose tbe General Assembly of this State? They are a set of “played out” politicians who were alike traitors to the United States and the Southern Confederacy, but possessing a little more foresight than the generality of the seceding rebels, they, with a hope of advancing their own interests, wisely concluded to remain in the Union, when at heart they were deep dyed traitors, and such they still remain. They have no principles; no creed; no party. Their attempts at law-making are as destitute of wisdom as they are of honor. 1 have said nothing of the modus operandi by which the bill was passed. It was accomplislied by parliamentary [working peculiar to the Tennessee House of Representatives. After the reading of Wednesday’s journal, the chairman of the Committee on Elections rose to a question of privilege, and asked leave to submit a report in favor of the admission of Messrs. Porter, Nunn and Shepherd—who, of the whole miiul>er elected under the Governor’s Proclamation, the radicals found to be tit tools to use in tbe passage of this nefarious measure. The Speaker decided the question of privilege to be of a personal nature and could not he brought before tiie House, especially as there was no quorum present; only fifty-three members answered to their names on a call of the House—fifty-six being necessary for a quorum. Bo it known that this was done to the exclusion of tiie conservative members elected under the same proclamation and at the same time. The vote on the passage of the bill stood forty-one for. and fifteen against. It is understood that the seats of all the conservative memlM'rs elect will Ik) contested by their radical opponents, although the majority in each case was overwhelming. Take for instance the vote of this ^Davidson) county. Bkien, radical, receivcd less than five hundred votes, while Lewis, Democrat, received all the rest cast. ^ DIVIDING THE STATE. East Tennessee is making strong efforts to secede from the State, for tiie purpose of forming itself into a separate govermortifTtS be known as the State of I!rowidow, with tbe Honorable Governor Colonel Baron William (i .Brownlow as King. NASHVILLE, In a business point of view, is very dull, and In all branches of business there is a greater inactivity than lias l>een known for many years. Notwithstanding this general apathy in trade, the municipal authorities are putting Uio city in a thoroughly “ policed ” condition, liy having the sewers deepened, nigger houses whitewashed and cleansed, and all trash and filth of every inscription hauled off. Cherry street is undergoing an entire transmogrification in being dug up and re-laid w itb the Nicholson pavement. Street cars are now running on the Cherry and College street line— the only one of the kind in the state, and they having only been put on tbe track uliout the first of the month. toJlie suspension bridge across the Cumlierland is fast approaching completion. AMUSEMENTS In the city are numerous, such as they are, but the only thing of any merit in tins line is a series of tableaux at the New Theater, given for the benefit of maimed Confederate soldiers, gotten up under the auspices of the Southern Benevolent Association. The house each evening is densely crowded with the elite and fashion, and the performance is creditable to the amateurs. The Old Theater is running its stock, with Kate Fletcher as leading woman. The nightly attendance ig very slim, and the performance miserable. The most drawing places are the Broadw r ay Varieties, and Sunny Side free and easy, with polits waiter girls, called beer jerkers, in attendance, drawing beer. They are always crowded, and the scenes there enacted are too obscene for any one to wish to be seen there more than once. They are of a most disgusting and revolting nature, and should be suppressed; there is a bill now before the City Council for this purpose, and should its passage be effected, the votaries of these haunts of vice and corruption would be compelled to seek other places to drink their beer and satiate their appetites for the vulgar and low. PERSONAL. Hon. William II. Campbell, a former resident of Indianapolis, is new Hiring in this city, and has every apperance of a gentleman with whom the world is dealing leniently. Being at the depot last Wednesday evening, I was delighted to see the smiling face of our rosy haired friend “ Bevkns” beaming from a ear window. The surprise was quite a
shock.
Yesterday niorniug I had a hearty shake of the hands of two of Indianapolis’ most esteemed citizens—General Dan. Macauley and Hank Otis, esq., both of whom were in the city on business. The general left this morning for his home. J. S. TMo First Operation of the Civil

During Hie proceedings iu the Senate chamber on Thursday, when the eulogiums on the late Senator Foot were being pronounced, a pompous negro eutered the diplomatic gallery, and took a seat in the midst of the foreign representatives. He had evidently studied the Civil Rights bill carefully, and thought that a negro wnt as good as an ambassador from any of the foreign courts, He was in the presence of the radical senators who had voted far the passage of the bill over tbe President’s veto, and very naturally included that iris rights were equal to those of any man on the floor of of the Senate or in the gallery set apart for tbe
foreign representatives.
Now, although this colored person was prevailed upon to retire, after some effort on the part of the door keeper, because he happened to get into the wrong place, it is questionable whether, under tire provisions of the Civil Rights bill, he was not justified in concluding
