CO-MMO PLEAS Jl'IMiEKIIIP.

As will be eeen by the proceedings published elaewhere in this paper, the Judicial Committee of this District met on the 27th nit, the day appointed by the Conneisvillc Convention, to canvass the votes cast fit the nominating election for Common Pleas Judge, and to declare the nominee. It was found that Judge J. F. Kibby had received an overwhelming majority of all the votes east, and he was accordingly declared to be the nominee of the Union part' for that office. We learn that a Main Convention was hell in Uuion county on Saturday last, at which Judge Kibby was declared to he the nominee of that count'. So that there now remains but a few Sore heads' in Franklin, who are making any opposition to the nomination as made by popular vote in April. Thene gentlemen have been encouraged by the ISutternut politiciaus to bring out an 'independent' candidate, with the expectation of concentrating upon him the united sore-head and butternut vote of the District, and thus defeating the regular nominee. But like all who have entered into covenant with that class of beings,, they are doomed to find themselves betrayed and deserted by their allies at the critical moment. It has beeu ascertained that the Butternuts, in ascret caucus, have concluded t S;ut' their 'independent' tool, and vote for a candidate of their own class, to be brought forward on the day of election, hoping that sudieieutdiviHion lias been created in the Union ranks to make this scheme succeed. We opine that all the parties to these movements will find themselves sadly deceived, on the day of election. The Union men are warned in time, and will, no doubt, turn out in force, and by their solid and overwhelming vote for the regularly nominated ticket, teach t';e opposite party, as well n the duo. -gauiera among themselves, that all attempts, either open or secret, to divide aud thus defeat the great part)- of the I'niou, must always be abortive.

TO THE POM THE POLLS ! ! Rail j for the TJnioa. - "

Ve hope no Union voter wDl fail to be at the polls Tuesday next. Although ao State ameers are to be elected, tbe election is nevertheieaa, one of the greatest importance to the people. Judges are to be elected for both the Circuit and Common Pleas Courts, also, a Prosecuting Attorney for tbe Circuit Court, and a County Commissioner. These are offices in which the public interests are ss deeply involved, ss any others which the people are called upon to fill ; and great care should be taken that none but known and reliable Union men be chosen to fill them. There is nnusaal necessity for a full Union vote at this election from the fact that certain parties in Franklin county, being dissatisfied with onr plan ef nominating by popular vote, have put forward an "independent" candidate for Common Pleas Judge in opposition to Col. Kibbey, the regular nominee. The Butterauts have encouraged this "indrpeadeat" movement, hoping to produce a division in eur ranks ; and we learn that within the last lew days, they have determined in secret. cancua, to brio forward a caadidate of their owa on the day of election, and ran him in through this anticipated division ef the Union forces. Thia game has been tried too often before, to be successful now ; snd it is only necessary to be on our guard, in order to frustrate all such weak devices of the enemy. All that is needed, is a fult vote for the regular ticket, in this county ; and this should be, by all m -ans. If we fail in our duty here, there might be sufficient division in tiie other eounties, to enable the Butternut candidate to succeed ; and this would be a disgrace and a calamity to the district. We learn also, that there is a secret movement on fimt, to bring out an opposition candidate for County Commissioner; and that a strong effort will be made on the day of the election, t; defeat the regnlarly nominated candidate. This movement too, may prove successful, unless a more general interest is manifested, snd a sufficient effrt made to secure a full turn out at the pui s. We therefore exhort the Union men of the eoanty to turn out e mnw, at the election, aad see to it that erery available rote is east. Avoid all independent candidates, and "scratched tickets," a as give a solid aud united vote for the regular nominees, all of whum are reliable and worthy men. For the Palladium. Mr. Editor, Yoar correspondent F. K. has written a lengthy article, endeavoring to prove the inexpediency of allowing the uegro the right of suffrage in this country. T xeply to lri letter in full, would require more lime and space than is profitable far a newspaper article. He dwells at iaeh length, to show the inharmony of races, and draws largely on history toprove his positions. Such essays with arguments of this character arc tvoefully oat of place, and tend to widen the heathenish breaches in the family of man ; and to discredit the doctrines and influences of the Christian religion. I trust that no Christiaa will Ue found taking sides with F. E., in his contost with humanity. To do so, would be to outrage every principle of the Chtistain Faith. His quotations of history are all true, but whoavere the beirigs tltat disregarded humanity by their "war of races ?"' They were semi-barbarians, who had never embraced the philesoj-uy of a pare an J undented religion. If ail such men as F. E., would spend thoir time and talents in doing good, their hearts, and hands, and tongues, twul brainslieing channels for love anil fricml6hip to flow through ; relieving the waiits of the famishing and storing ignorant minds with wisdom ; then to such, would the eloquent language of the Prophet apply : "Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health -shall spring forth speedily, rftad thy righteous ness shall go before .tuee; the Glorj of the Lord shall be thy reward." If .theae reasonable duties wrrc faithfully attended to in the pure light of a well regulated Christianity, the world would lie made a paradise, and F. E's "antagonism of races" a mere f-Ule. Jf F. E., had learned the proper lessons of a "Sabbath School, he would not spend his time, paper and ink in an argument fosteriug the prejudices of any class of mankind against their fellow-beings. As Christ loved all mankind, and bowed to death a ransom for all, even so should we love all men, that we may be Clu ist-like. Hut to his political argument. He says, the "conferring of equal rights before the law , upon the negro, without equal social rights, will only tend to widen tbe chasm Already existing between the two races." The equal rights wlvirh colored men enjoy in Massachusetts, in Canada, in the West Indies, does not seem to hare that effect. Governor Andrew and Charles Sumner, berth go to the polls and vole with the negro, and I am safe in saying, that the negro at lea9t loves Charles Sumner, and it is said that Chatles Sumner is "a aegro lover." It is unnatural to suppose that we would hate the negro" while conferring rights and privileges upon him, or that he would despise us while inheriting the blessings we confer. F. E., might possibly give the negro political rights, but never social. No! no, this the gentleman will never consent to do. I know hira not, nor can I guess who he is ; but I will venture to predict that he is a well learned, and well read gen'de rnau of the higher order of society, and that neither the poor Dutch, Irish, Native Americans or Negroes. ever are found in the social circle in which this gentleman and his family move. Men who exclude the poor from their homes, are always formost in denouncing the negro. Mr. Editor, I am not ashamed of'my principles; I stand with. Sumner, Wilson. Hale, Butler, Washington, Jefferson and last but not least, with Abraham Lincoln on this question, and to to save F. E., and the rest of mankind the trouble of guessing who I am, I will here subscribe mvself, M. R. Hcll. Dublin, SepL 27, 1S65. Three hundred bales of eotton, roSaed at $300.

SPEECH, OF GOV. MORTON. Condition of the Country. ' REVIEW OP RECONSTRUCTION POLICIES.

Endorsement of President Johnson Rebel and gro Suflrage Personal Dtlneraaces. The following speech was delivered at Richmond, Indiana, on Thursday evening, in the Theater, to a very Urge aad interested audience. The eccaaioo, which Governor Morton improved, for thus presenting his views to tlie public, was a flag presentation to the Union people ef Wayne county, as a testimonial from the State Sanitary Commission and the authorities of the State, for their mi paralleled liberality in sustaining the good work of the Commission. There were present on the stand tbe officers of the State Society snd other distinguished citizens. The meeting a as organized by railing Mr. Jesse P. Siddall tothe chair, who presented Governor Morton to his audience in a few appropriate remarks. The Governor extemporaneously, and with more than bi3 usual fluency and energy, spoke as fo lows : Ma. CaAiBxa, Lsbies asd Gentlemen: Some six months ago the banner which it is proposed to present to-night should have been presented to the citiaens of Wayne county, and especeially Wayne township, as a testimonial to their great zeal, an'l tbe contributions they have made in behalf of our soldiers. The distinguished honor has fallen to Wayne county of having contributed more for tbe relief of the sick and wounded soldiers in the field, to the Indiana State Sanitary Commission, than any other county in the State. And it was promised long ago that to the oountv contributing the most a banner should be presented as a testimonial of their regard to the soldiers. But as I hare something to say in regard to general politics and tbe condition of the country, I have been advised to speak first on these subjects, and at the conclusion the ceremonies of presentation will take place. rajt.-Esr condition of the cocntet. I desire, iu the first place, to remark that to me the general condition of the countrv is most orornisin? and favorable. I know there are tho.se who take gloomy views ol what is called the work ot reconstruction. But ! to me the prospect Seems highly tavorable. The war terminated snddenlv, asd the submission on the part j of the people of the Southern or rebel States has been more complete, and it lias been more sudden than t I expected. And from all 1 can learn, I believe that j a!l idea of secession or further resi.-tance to the Government of the Un ted States, or the continuance or 1 establishment of slavery, are etfi-ctually and forever j banished from the miuds of the great majority of the j SouUiern people. There ia much exasperation of I feeling down there, and there will 1 for months and ! years to come. There are oi:iny persons who take a i narrower view of xhinrs. who have loat everything in this war, ana who are smarting umier the humiliation of defeat, thst are deeply exasperated, and utter occasional dish yal sentiments and threats about the future. But the great majority of the Southern people are thoroughly submissive. I believe aU further ideas of secession, the establishment of a Southern Confederacy, are effectually extuiguisiied, and there is no more danger now of secession in South Carolina or t ieorgia than in the State of Indiana. We cannot expect that tbe eopleof the rebel States will come to lore us in the course of a few years. We cannot expect that a people who have been so completely subjected, who h ive so nearly lost everything they had in the struggle with us, shouM come to live iu harmony with us in thia short length of time. The great point now to be considered is the question whether there is any longer in the Southern mind an intention to secede from the Union and resist the authority of the Government of tbe United States, and to establish a Southern Confederacy. I say thst I believe thst the idea is extinguished forever. Things hare changed verr much in the South from what they were before ihe war; and if there are those mho expect that parties n ill resume their old relations, and that one party can sustain again to the South the relations it sustained before this war, such expectations may be banished at once and forever. Slaverv, the tie that bound that party together, North and outh, is gone, and instead of hsving but one party in the South, substantially, as heretofore, we shall now have the sirn." parties in the South as we have in the North. I should not be surprised myself, if, in the course of a few years, the Southern States should bei-ome the most radical States in thia nation. I should not be surprised if even the State of South Carolina should grant suffrage to her colored population before the JMateof Indiana does to hers. BECOXSTBI CTION POLICIES OF tlNCOLS 1KD OF JOHNSON. ' Mr. Johnson was elected by the Union party of this nation, and he is entitled to have that party support i1.,,in!?iU!S!-HPW(l!iV in1" i'oinc'TiFal f.'. rticuiSr vrom fhe principles on w hieh be was elects. The im,presion has got abroad in the North that Mr. Johnson has devised some new policy, by tvhich important facilities are granted for the restoration of the rebellions States ; and that he is improperly and unneccsriir pushing forward the work of reconstruction ; that he is presenting improper facilities for restoring those who have been engaged in rebellion to the possession of their several political rights. It is one of my purposes here to-night to say to you that so far as his policy of amnesty and reconstruction is concerned, that he has absolutely presented nothing new, but that be has simply presented a continuance of the policy that President Lincoln laid before the country on the hth of December, 1S63. Mr. Johnson's amnesty proclamation differs from Mr. Lincoln's only in some restrictions it contains that Mr. Lincoln's did not contain. His plan of reconstruction is absolutely and simply that of Mr. Lincoln's; nothing more nor Jess, excepting one condition, that Lincoln required one-tenth of the people should be willing to embrace fcw plan before they were entitled to its benefits, whereas Johnson says nothing about the one-tenth, and as far as the plan has been acted upon, it has been w ith the approval of a larger number even than that. I believe that the one thing which has contributed to cause suspicion to rest upon Mr. Johnson's policy more than any other, is the fact that it has beeu indorsed by the Democratic party. This may be regarded by many honest persons as a suspicious circumstance : but I am sure that Mr. Johnson is not justly repsonsible for that. The Democratic party could not hare lived another year upon tt e policy w hich they have advocated for a few years past. It was a policy opposed to the war ; a policy in favor of -tue rebellion, and against tbe Government of t ie .United States. Aud when we were triumphant the lemocratic party could no longer stand upon its rotten policy. Hence we find that in the State of New Vork, at the recent Democratic State Convention, they not only adopted a Union platform, but with one exception nominated Republicans for candidates. That exception was John Van Buren, who has been everything by turns and nothing in particular. Now, I propose to contrast the plans of reconstruction adopted bv President Johnson and that promised by President Lincoln in lst3 ; and I hope imiortant results, as far as the public m,nd is concerned, may flow from the comparison. Mr. Lincoln in his policy of reconstruction, presented to Congress in a message. Dec. 8, l.i3, prescribed SB oath of allegiance to be taken by those who were entitled to take it under bis proclamation. I shall read that oath and contrast it with the one which Mr. Johnson requires : I ao solemnly swear, in the presence of Almighty God, that I will henceforth faithfully support, protect and defend the Constitution of the L nited States and the Union ot the States thereunder, and that I will, in like mar ner, abide by and faithfully support all acts of Congress passed during the existing rebellion, with reference to slaves, so Ion? and so far as aot repealed, modified cr held void bv Congress, or by decision of the Supreme Court ; and that I will, in like manner, abide by and faithfully support all proclamations of the President, made during the existing rebellion, having reference to slaves, so long snd so far as not modified or declared void by decision of the Supreme Court. So Iwlp me God." I will now read Mr. Johnson's oath, and you will fiu 1 that his is snore stringent than that of Mr. Lincoln, in--much as be leaves out that clause saying it might be modified by Congress or the Supreme Conrt. Mr. Jahnson requires this oath : I do solemnly swear, or affirm. in the presence of A!miity tiod, that I will henceforth faithfully defend the Constitution of tbe United States, and the anton of the Stales thereunder, and that I will, in like I manner, abide by and faithfully support all laws and 1 proclamations which have leen madeduring tbe exist- ' mg rebellion, with reference to the emancipation of i sieves, so help me, God.' ilr. Lancolo excluded trom toe benefit ot nn amnesty proclamation certain clashes of persons. I will read a list of persons he would not permit to take the oath, except tey first received special pardon from him : "1st. All who are. or shall have been, pretended civil or diplomatic officers, or otherwise domestic or foreign agents of tbe pretended Confederate Government. "2nd. AH who left judicial stations under the United States to aid tbe rareIiioa. "3d. All who shall have been miliary or naval officers of said pretended Confederate Government, above tbe rank of Colonel in the army, er Lieutenant in the navy. "4th. All who left seats in the Congress of the United States to aid the rebellion. Sth. AH who resTgned er tendered tbe resignation of their commissions in the army or navy of tbe Untied States, to evade their duty ia resisting the rebellion. "th. All who have engaged in soy way in treating otherwise than lawfully as prisoners of war. persons found in the United States service as officers, soldiers, seamen, or ia other rapacities. Mr. Johnson, in his proclamation, first nukes the same exceptions that Mr. Lrncnlu did, and in the same language. He afterwards goes en to except seven other classes, snd excludes tbem from tbe benefit of tae amnesty : and tbe persons embraced in those classes were permitted, nodwr Vir. Laacoia's proclamation, to take the oath of amDesty, and be received back to their former rig lata :

-7lh. All persons who have oeen or are absentees from the United States? asi ihe-fmrp e of aiding there beilioa. i a"th. AU military or naval officers in the rebel service, who were edneated by the Government in tbe Military A cade in v at West Point, or tbe United State -Naval Academy. ; t Vth. AU persons who held tbe pretended offices of Governors of Sutes in insurrvctno against the Uuited States. ltfth. All persons who left their homes within the jurisdiction and protection of the United States, snd passed beyond tite federal military lines into the socslled Confederate States, tor the purpose of aiding tbe rebellion. "ll. All persons vho have been er.gased in the destruction ot the coomerceot the United States upon the hirh seas, and au' persons wii have made raids into tue United States from Canada, or beeu engaged in destroying thecoumercenf the Unite! States npoa the lakes and rivers Iit separate the British Provinces from the United Sttles. "12. All persons who at tbe time when they seek to obtain the benefits hffeof by taking the oath herein prescribed, are ia miliary, naval or civil confinement or custody, or under oond of military or naval authorities or agents of the Tnited States as prisoners of war, or persons detained fr offense of any kiod, either before or after conviction. "13tu. Ail persons who have voluntarily participate! in said rebellion, and the estimated value of whose taxable property is over $20,000. 14ih. A U persons who have tulcen the oath of amnesty, as prescribedn the President's proclamation of December 3, A. D., 1?33, or an oath of allegiance to the Government rf tie United States, since the date of said proclamation, and a ho luive not thenceforward kept and maintained the same inviolate, provided that special application rray be made to the President for pardon, by any persto belonging to the excepted classes, and such clemency will be liberally extended as may be consiatent w:th the f icta of t.he case aad the peace and dignity of the United States. So that Mr. johnsou restrained from taking the oath these seven clatses of persons, who were permitted by Mr. Lincoln to take it ; and so far his plan of amnesty was mre stringent than that of Mr. Lincoln. Mr. Lincoln, in his plan of reconstruction, declared that all persons sbooH have the right to vote for delegates to the Conventims which might be called ia the States U form Slate Constituuoas, who had taken the oath prescribed by him, and who were lawful voters according to tie law of the State in which they lived before the passage of the ordianee of secession. Mr. Johuson made precisely the same condition. Mr. Lincoln provided for the appointment of Provisional Governors, giving to them the power to call State Conventions, with the view of forming State Constitutions, for th purpose of being received back into full practical relations with the rest of the States. Mr. Johnson did the same thing. Mr. Lincoln appointed Provisional Governors in Tennessee, Louisaua and Arkansas. Mr. Johnston appointed such Governor in Mississippi, North Carolina. Georgia and Snath Carolina. Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Johnson, both alike, require that the Constitution! to be presented by the Convention thus called, shall be republican in its form. Mr. Lincoln put forth no restriction or condition that was not ajso required by Mr. Johnson. These plans of amnesty an I reconstruction ran not lie distinguished trte one from the other, exrept in the particulars I have before mentioned, vix: that Mr. Johnson restricted certain persons from taking the oath, unless first having a special pardon from him, that Mr. Lincoln permitted to coraj forward and take the oath without first having obtained a special pardon : and that Mr. Lincoln required that one-tenth of the population should be w illing to embrace his plan, while llr. Johnson's plan said nothing about this. Now tiiis was Mr. Lincoln's favorite policy. It was presented by him on the 8th of Jan., 1So3, accompanied by a message. During the Congress of 1 so! 4. on several occaaious, Mr. Lincoln distinctly presented this policy of amnesty and reconstruction to thepeopleof the South. It w as his settled an l favorite policy at the time he was nominated for re-election at the convention in Baltimore last summer. In that convention the public sustained him and strongly indorsed his policy, of which this was the promineut pnrt. He was triumphantly elected upon that policy, and soon after his election, in December, lStf. in hi last annual message to Congress, he again brings forward this same policy again presents it to the nation and to the Southern States for adoption. Again, on the 1-th of April, only two days before his death, and iu the last speech he made, Mr. Lincoln again referred to and re-presented this policy of amnesty and reconstruction. That speech mar be called his dying words to this people, and I desire to read a portion i f il to you. You remember the occasion : It was after Richmond had been evacuated ; it was the evening after the revs of Lee 'a surrender had been received : Washingt n was illuminated ; a large crowd had assembled in front of thu White House, and Mr. Lincoln spoke from the window. He referred to Louisiana, ami gave the history of his policy thus : "In my annual message of December, 1S63, and the accompanying proclamation, I presented a plan of reconstruction, as the phrase goes, which I promised, if adopted by any State, would be acceptable, and sustained bv th Executive Oovernnient of the plan which uiizlit possibly be acceptable I alao distinctly protested that the Executive claimed no right to say when or whether members should be admitted to seats in Congress from such States." IISQl AI.IFK'aTIf.M OF LEADING KKBEI.S. I w ish to make a remark here : It is sometimes said that under Johnson's policy thosu old politicians who fulminated and carried on the rebellion can be reelected and returned to seats in Congress. Gentlemen who talk in that way forget that on the 2d of July, 1802, Congress passed an act which has never been repealed, and ia therefore now in full force prohibiting any person from holding any federal office high or low, who had directly or indirectly been concerned in this rebellion. So there is no danger of those gentluien getting iuto Congress unless that body Bhall prove recreant to its trust and fail to enforce the law on its statute book. Mr. Lincoln referred to this ar t, and sail he claimed no power to determine w ho should be eligible to seats in Congress ; he claimed no power to bring forward any man who had been disfranchised by the act of Congress. And Mr. Johnson has never claimei that he had the power, or would do anysuh thing. Thit act of Congress w as binng npoa Mr. Lincoln, and is now binding upon Mr. Johnson, and both recognized its orce. It is not proposed to interfere in any respect with the operation of tiiat statute, and allow men to come into Congress or into an v Federal office, who are prohibited from such privilege by this act of Congress. "This plan," lie say g,"w as n advance submitted to the Cabinet, and approved by every member of it. One of them suggested that I should then and in that conjunction apply the Emancipation Proclamation to the heretofore excepted parts of Virginia and Louiaiana: that T should lrop the suggestion about apprinticeship for the freed people, and that I should omit the protest against my own power in regard to the admission of members of Congres3. But even he approved every part and parcel of the plan which has since been employed or touched hr the action of Louisiana." Here Mr. Lincoln, just before his death, gives the history of this plan of reconstruction. He says it was submitted to every member of his Cabinet. Who were the members of his Cabinet? The present Chief Justice, Chase, Hon. E lvin M. Stanton, and the Hon. Secretary of State, Mr. Seward. Surely, the approval of those distinguished men, who have rendered such great service to the nation, must now give some weight and character t the policy now pursued. But he g's on to s ly: "The new Const t it o i of Lca'stana.dcearing'emancipation for tbe w h 'le State, practically applies the proclamation to the part previously exempted. It does not adopt apprenticeship fr the freed people, and is silent, as it could not well be otherwise, about the admission of members to Congress : so that, as it applied to Louisiana, everv member of the Cabinet fully approved the plan. The ra-ss!re went to Congress, and I read mancomiaeoiations of the plan, written and verbal : and not a sinsrle obiection to it from any professed em incipationist came to my knowledge, until alter the news' was received at Washington that the people of Louisiana had begun a movement in accordance with it." Then in referring to this subject, he uses the following langnige: "Such has been me only agency in the Louisiana movement. My promise is made, as I bave frequently suted. but as bad promises are better broken than kept, I shall treat this as a bad promise, and break it whenever I shall be ewnvinced that keeping it is averse to the public interest. But I have not yet been so convinced." " Thus we find Mr. Liacoln, just before his death, referring in warm and strong terms to his policy of amnesty and reconstruction, and giving it his sanction still." Indeed, he miy be said to hare died holding out to the nit on this very policy of amnesty and reconstruction. It was heidont by hira up to the very time the rebels laid down their arms. Johnson s touct tix save as lixcolVs. Mr. Lincoln died by the hurt 1 of the aisin, and Mr. Johnson came into power. H took Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet as he left it- He took his policy in regard to

amnesty an 1 teconsTwcti- n as he'd te&it, and presented it the world again only two dsyj before his death ; and be ha faithfully ail honestly attemptel,to administer that policy which was bequeathed to himby that great maa, around whose grave We whole world gathered as mourners. . 1 have re' erred in these facts to show that Mr. Johnson has devised no new or strange thing; but has carried out the policy left by bis vent rated, predecessor a policy that received the endorsement ot the nation, ty the triumphant re-eieetion of Mr. Lincoln, that had been proclaimed to the world nearly a jear bet ire the time of his last election. exsBY wisTsa davis' flax. I want to remark farther upon this snbjeet, aad refer to the action of Congress in reference to the question of reconstmcfeon. Some .time in tbe month of Mar. Bearr Winter Davis, the dtstrBgnisned member of Congress from Mirybnd, introduced a bill into Conf ress providing a plan for reestmeting tie rebel State, t differed from tbe plan of Mr. Liia in some important respects, one of which was, taat in electing dV4eM be allowed no man to rote who bad been concerned in tbe rebeUwn us any way I will call .your attention to the character ot that bill, and snow too. how far Congress was committed by its direct action to the main pouts of Mr. Johnson's policy. This bill

provides for the appointment of Proviaicaal Governors for those StatesTjuatas Mr. Lincoln's tad Jone. It provided that these Provisional Governors might call Stats Conventions for the purpose of forming ConstitutionsIt wen: en to deune the right of suffrage, saying who wool j have the right to vote for Delegates ti these Convention. It provided that IVU-v-ates shmil j be elected by loyal white male citizens of the United S rates who were t,wnty-ooe rears of aire, resident in the Slaws. c. I cat! attention to tii3 fact that Congress, only a litje over a year ao, when it assumed to take this nutter out of the hands of the Pres' ieiit, expressly exoia ied tie negro trora vousg for tie roe a who sUmil j compose those conventions 1 1 form n w constitutions fur toe rebel Sutes. Not ou!v tiiis. but it Stat 1 whit the Constitutions should

contain. It provided that tbe Cocstitntions io be I formed ay thus Conventions should conform to tbe j provisions of this bill in t-.ree respects : ' 1st. Thai no person who lu held or exercised any j office, civil or military, above tie rank of C l.rl j shall be entitled to vote. ! In other words, that bill requires that tboe Con- j ventions should exclude from tan right of sutlrare. in ; ttie State, ail persons who had been in the rwoel army j ahove the rank if Col.; thereby conceding the privilege j ruitt be extended to ail persons below that rank. ' i at. That slavery or involuutary servituia shall not J exist in the State. 31. That those States should not assnrae any part j of the Confederate debt. j Tiiese were ail the conditions that this bill of Henry j Winter Davis imposed in reference to" the Conventions i that were to form new Constitutions. It di i not re- j quire that there should be any provision made to cx. Bter suffrage upon the nero at auy time. It did cot i require that they should make provision for his e-Jucs- ' tion; that tney should give him the right to testifv in J courts of justice. That bill passed the House by a ; vote of 4 to oii, and afterward, in July, passed tbe I Senate. Mr. Lincoln refused to sign that bill: he ptit ; it in his pocket, and some of you may reaieuiber the j anry manifesto put forth by Senator Wade aiwl Henry j Winter Davis, which, for a time, caused considerable i strife iu our ranks, and threatened the success of onr ! efforts to restore the integirity of the nation. If Mr. Lincoln had not refused to sigu that bill, j there would to-Jay be an act of Congress ou the stat- i ute-book absolute! v prohibiting the negro from partieipating iu the work of reconstruction, aud pledging j the Government in advance to accept the Constitution I that might be made under that bill. It made no pro- j vision fur the negro beyond his personal libertv; and j it that bill had passed, 'those rebel States cmld pre- , sent their members ot Congress, and you could not keep them out, except by trampling under foot that act ofCongress. I So you see that Congress, in its action, did not make j negrosuffrage a condition in its views of reconstruction, j We have the direct sanction of tVn-ress in excluding ; the negro from t e work of reconstruction. and ruakug t no provision for their rights lieyoud personal li!erty. j Now. how is if with the policy of Messrs. Lincoln and Johnson? They require that the revised t'onsti- J tutions shall forever prohibit slavery. Mr. Johnson j has said time and again that this was the first conoi- j tion: he said to the South Carolina delegation that re- j cently w aited upon in : It is one condition that slavery shall be forever ev- , tiniruished. andthe rights of the 1 reed men preserved, j AnTl lam irlafii see that many of thoso Siatesi are I making commendable progress in this dire. 'tion. I ; see that the Alabama Convention has adopted, by a j vote of Si to .1, a provision abolishii.g and forever prohibiting slavery in that State, and requiring tlie Leiis- j lature to make provision for the protection of tlie j freedinen in the enjoyment of their rights. j SI USAGE AND THE RfcBELS. j I now come to speak myre particularly on the sub- i ject of suti'rage. The Constitution ot tiie United St.iles j referred the question of sulrairo to the several States, j This mav have been right, or it may have beeu n ron': ' I merely speak of the tact. It has provided that such ; persons as have tiie right to vote by the laws of the j State for members of the most numerous branch of t the State Legislature, shall have the right to vote for ; members ot Congress. It then, in another provision, declares that States may, in any manner they see proper, appointor etect their Presidential Electors; so that the whole question of suffrage has been referred to tiie several States. It has been proposed by some to avoid the operation of this constitutional provision by excluding members of Congress from the Southern States, until such time as they shall incorporate negro sultrage into their constitutions. That is one way in which to avoid this o institutional provision. There is another plan, and that is the theory which regards these States as being out of the Union; as no longer praoticanHy in the Union, but held as conquored provinces subject to the jurisdiction of Congress, like unorganized territory, on the principle that Congress has the power to provide for calling conventions of these States, just as it has in the territory of Dakotah, and may prescribe the right of suffrage or determine who shall vote in electing delegates to those conventions; and may then determine whether it will accept the Constitution so formed, as it would do in the case of any other territory. I will not stop to argue this question now, but I will sav that from the beginning of the war to thia time, tt has been proposed by some to avoid the operation ot Iloiurrea-s from th Southern tntes, until such time as thev shall incorporate negro suffrage into their constitutions. That is one wav iu which to avoid this constitutional provision. There is another plan, and that is the theory which r-srards these States as being out of the Union: as no longer practically in tlie Union, but held as conquered provinces, subject to the jurisdiction of Congress, like nnorganized Territory, on the principle that Congress has the power to provide for calling Convections of these Stales, just as it has in the Territory of Dakotah, and may prescribe the richt of suffrage or determine who shall vote in electing delegates to those Conventions: and may then determine whether it will accept the Constitution so formed, as it would do in any other case. I will not stop to argue this question now, but I will say that frtru the lieginning of tbe war to this time, every mes-aga of the President, every proclamation, errv Stat' piper, and every act of Congress, has proceeded upon the. hypothesis that no State could secede from tlie Union: that once in tiie Union, always in the Union. Mr. Lincoln, in every proclamation, went upon the principle that this war was an insurrection: a rebellion of the people against the Constitution and laws of the United States; that it was not a rebellion of the States, but of the people ot the several States, and every man was personally and individually liable tor his acts', and could noj shield himself under the Government of his State. He went upon the principle that every ordinance of Secession was invalid, having no legal effect, and that those States were, in the contemplation of the law, in the Union, and could not be affected by the action of those people, that the people of those States are personally responsible for their conduct; just as a man is responsible for a violation of tlie statute against the cominssion of murder: if one man can forfeit his right to these, a thousand or a million ran, but so far as thei- action is concerned, they had no power to affect a State in this Government. Every message of Congress bas proceeded upon this hypothesis. Baehanan. before the war, started out with the proposition that this was a rebellion of Mates: and he said we could not coerce a State. Our rvplv to him was, we have not Wins to do with States: we w ill coerce the people of the States w im are in rebellion, holding every man responsible for lis conduct. Upon this hypothesis we put down the rebellion. lint itis now proposed that we shall practically admit that those States did secede and go oot of this Uuion; that the work of secession was practically accomplished, and a Government (it facto was established, and that we now Iiold thoso States as conquered provinces, just as we would hold Canada, if in a war we had conquered tier. As a consequence ef this doctrine, as I heard recently advocated by a distinguished geutleman on the other side, Jed Davis cannot be tried for treason. Why? Because he is nnt a traitor. Having succeeded in accomplishing a revolution aad establishing a Government, he must lie regarded as tiie bead of a Government, as the ruler of a ro-vjiwrel province. That gentlemen said w e bad tin more power to bold him for treason than we would have to ImU the Governor of Canada, if we had conquered that provin-e. This iswhtt this doirtrine leads to: and it leads to m my other things not contemplated by those w!o have advocated such views. Another consequence that would follow from the admission of that doctrine asd I may ars;ue tuis point at more leagtii at another tune is. that we would be called upon to par tiie rebel debt. If we adm t that these States were out of tiie Union, for a moment, anl were to be regarded in the light of belligerents, it would be insisted npon at once that when we take them back as conquered States, we take tbem as they are, with their debt, just as we woo id take aay other Stale, belonging to another Government. The October Election. Let our friends throughout the State bear in mind tbe fact that aextTuesdar is Election Day. True, we have n-1 a Governor, nor Congressnien, or a Legislators to elect, but many of onr county offices are to tie ti '.led on tltat day. and oa the aeh oavons we make, much of onr Local prosperity depends. In some counties the contest over local candidates is sharp, and partv lines are rigidly drawn: in oilers, but one set o candidates is in trie &dd- We cannot too strongly advise onr Union friends to use all honorable td.ru to elect men who were patriotic and loyal dorms the war, and who can be depended on io the future. Imd. Jomr. I d i nn a Cot tea . Major Erie Locke has left at onr office a Cotton bush which bears toe marks of a pretty good devetopemer.t for one season's trial.
