mm PUBLISHED DAILY AND WEEKLY BY JARED IRWIN WHITAKER, Proprietor. ATLANTA. GEORGIA. Friday Morning, Aug. 33. 1867. From ilia Mm'nn Teh'umph. Utnrrtl l*ou* >ml tho Hocoiinlnirtluii Aria. Itlms been our ploiwmo to approve ntnl-com mend, ({riiiirally, tin: adininlatmtloi) of General l*opc, in tlm pnat. Invested with extraordinary power, micli aa lew Knrupenn deapota possess, we thought we mw in Idm a disposition to treat the Southern people with fairness, and to dis- elmrfje his dHficull duties in Bitch manner as to hriiiK upon them the least amount of actual op pression. His conrso has indicated a desire to make friends ot our people, and not enemies in conducting them hack into the Union overlh rough path marked out by the Radical Congress, to eo upletc the journey with as few foot-sores and heart-burnings as limy !to v possible in the 1 peculiar circumstances of the case. In view ot the many temptations to the abuse ol power, and the evil Influences, both here and at Wash- iilgton, by which tie was surrounded, we regard ed his course, in the main, as eminently just and worthy of our approval. This we did not hesi tale, aa public journalists, freely to accord to him. Aud whntercr chaugos recent events may have wrought in the public estimation of the man aud officer, wo still think he is animated by just motives, and if left to himsclt would do what is right. But it requires a mental calibre lar greater than his, and experience in civil admin istration that he is not even expected to possess, to come up to the demauds of enlightened st ates manship and patriotic duty with a virtue and lor- titudo suited to the grave occasion. 1 le is young, inexperienced, and yet ambitious and not without vanity. It is not singular then that he should catch any prevailing distemper of the times, or fall a vic tim to those who are wiser and more cunning than himself. That ho has rocontly erred, and that Ins general policy, as indicated in his orders, is not dictated by thoso pure and lofty considera tions of the public welfare that so eminently belli his station, we think no sober-minded, re flecting tuan will dispute. The great difficulty with him in arriving at just conclusions is, that he has based his administration on false premi ses. These wrong, his eflorts in pursuance therooi must necessarily fail in their object, viz : the re-union and pncification ol the country. Some remarks in illustration of this point wo consider demanded by the occasiou, and we shall make them with all becoming deference for Gen. Pope, who, we believe, is in the wrong road not lrom any particular choice ol his own, but simply because he was put there in the start, and has not had the courage to displease his su periors at Washington by taking another. The source of errors in the practical adminis tration of our District Commander is to be found in a total misconception of the Itecouslrucliou acts, which he was sent South to administer. He has made the mistake of construing those mea sures, or rather reconstructing under them, as wmpulaory upon the Southern people. He acts aa though Congress had said tho South xlmU tie reconstructed under these bills, when it has said no such thing. What are the Reconstruction bills'! They provide that such aud such things niuy be done by the people of the late seceded Stales, open up an opportunity for doing them, and declare that upon the doing of the same they shall be re-admitted with all their rights into the Union. This is all. Beyond a prescription of the class of persons who shall be entitled to Vote, they command no thing. Their whole gist is a proposition to the South, which it can accept or reject at its own good pleasure. There is not a word ol compul sion anywhere to be found in the several acts, but the utmost freedom is allowod to the citizen to do just as his own best judgment shall dictate. He can register or not. Ho can vote for or against a Convention, aud such a body is to ex ist or not as the majority shall determine. If a Convention bo held it shall be at liberty to form such a Constitution as they shall deem best lor the State. If a constitution bo formed, it must be submitted buck to the people and command a mojority of all the registered votes before it can be valid as the fundamental law ol the State. The largest freedom and discretion nre specially guaranteed in every step of this progressive ac tion, and provision is even made to secure the perfect independence of voters. Such are the reconstruction bills, and General Pope lias been put over the Third Military Dis trict for the solo purposo of seeing that they arc executed and ol preserving the public peace.— Now, you cannot execute a law without enforc ing all of its provisions, and it is very certain that it is not executed when any ol its provisions or guarantees are interlerrcd with or obstructed. As freedom of action is guaranteed to the citizen, any act of the military commander that restrains that freedom, whether applied to voting, speak ing or writing, so far from oxecuting the law is a palpable violation ot it on his part. It is as much ids duty under tho law to protect A in voting against reconstruction us it is to protect B in voting for reconstruction. How lar then must bo the departure from duty when he essays to punish A lor executing an undoubted right under the law ? The Congress has prescribed no penalty for opposition to reconstruction under theso laws—by what right does a district com mander prescribe one ? Thus it is clear that when Gen. Pope issued his orders prohibiting all officers of the State from expressing any oplulon or using any in fluence in opposition to reconstruction uuder tho Military Bills, he did that which hud no warrant in the law itself or in common justice ; aud when he went further aud actually pun ished the Conservative press for advising the people to adopt one ol the two alternatives submitted to them by Congress, hu most griev ously transcended his powers, and even violated the very laws which he was sent here to enforce. Wo appeal to any jurist, or fair-minded, sensible man, North or South, if we are not right in our construction of the law and of the duties arising under it. If we are not, then Inis Congress, in a solemn act of legislation, put upon the country a lie and a cheat, os unjust to the South us it is derogatory to itself, lii the form ot an honest proposition for reunion, it has been guilty of laying a snare to entrap a people wholly in its power, in order to oppress and plunder them when caught. The great blunder of Gen. Pope consists in mistaking the wishes of the Badicul party for the laws ot the land, and considering himself the representative of that faction and not of the Uuitcd States of Amorica. Wo hope he will take a more enlarged and elevaled view ot his office and its duties; and if he should not, but persist in considering himself an agent for the propagation of Kadical principles in the South, we trust the President will put some one in his place who will have a higher and Juster concep tion of the duties to bo performed, and consider himself an impartial officer of the United States, and not the missionary of party. ••ERROR OEA8E8 TO BE DANGEROUS WHEN REASON 18 DEFT FREE TO COMBAT IT."—Jefferson.
