u»u titles.
I ntil a man shall have been oonvicted,
iu due form of law, of Hie urime of trea
hou, hie property cannot he taken from
him and Bold on aoooimt of the United
States, or turned over to the Freodwen’s
Bureau, or otherwise disposed of without
Lie consent. If his property he so taken,
the tit es do not pass with H ; the procedure
is entirely unwarranted by the laws of
this country, and neither divests the
owner of his title nor vests any title in
the pernon or persons ooming into pos
session, by suoh moans.
A uiau must, “ in due form of law, be
tried by a civil court of the United States,
and by that tribunal found guilty, on the
testimony of two witnesses to the same
overt act or by conieeslou in open court,
be convicted of the crime of treason
against the United States, " before his
lands can be confiscated or the titles
thereto be made to pass front him without
his agreement and consent.
The (! u. s atiou Aot eipressiy declares
that confiboailoa “snail follow on due
couvicttou ot treason; ” not that confisca
tion shall precede it The Act instituting
the Fiuedmeu’s Bureau gives lands only
to the trusteeship ot the Uureau “where it
can tie proven itreat, the owner was, at the
time of the seizure of the lauds, absent
therefrom, engaged in, or aiding aud
abetting thoso engaged iu waging war
against the United States. ” This is trea
son, and it follows, necessarily, that before
any lands cau be called abandoned, ihe
possessor of them must bo, in due form of
law, proven a traitor.
This is the position taken by President
Johnson, and the law sustains him iu it.
lie has somewhere said—iu his speeoh to
the Southern delegation, if we mistake
not—that “ there is to be no more taking
away of property, till the law takes it
away, ’’ aud as to that already gone, the
rule now is, that pardon brings with it
the restoration of all the estate of the
person pardoned. Already has one gen
eral officer, in New Orleans, been made,
much against his private inclinations, to
give up a dwelling house. Upon the same
principle, on presentation of an attested
pardon, the Preedmen’s Bureau is bound
to surrender up to the recipient of pardon
the property in its possession that may
rightfully and legally belong to him
There is to be no confiscation without due
conviction of treason. This is confirmed
by the policy indicated by several reoent
orders trorn the Freedman's Bureau, par
ticularly the new circular, dated at Wash
ington, Sept. 1-th, which directs that
landß held as abandoned under the act of
Congress, aud occupied by freedmen or
refugees, by Government authority, are
not hold to beoonfisoated until condemned
aud sold, according to law, aud shall be
restored to pardoned owners.
Political
Ohio —The State eleotions for Gover
nor, Lieut. Governor, State Treasurer,
Attorney General, Sohool Commissioner,
&0., took place on the 11th. An inde
pendent State Kightd Ticket, headed by
Alexander Long for Governor, was run
in addition to the regular tickets with
Jacob Dolaon Cox, Rep., aud G. W. Mor
gan, Dorn ,at their respective heads. At
latest accounts Cox was ahead.
Tim legislature to be ohosen ibis year
will elect a United States senator in place
of John Sherman, whose term expiree on
the ith of March, ItibT. The candidates
on the republican side are, Mr. Sherman
aud Geu. Hubert U. Sohenok, and on the
democratic side, Clement L. Yallandig
ham and Samuel S. Cox.
At a union meeting at Columbus, Ohio,
a low days since, (Jot. Anderson ex
pressed his opposition to bestowing at
present the privilege of suffrage on the
emancipated slaves.
lowa, —The election for Governor in
his State took place on the 10th. The
1 Republican candidate was William M.
Stone, the present incumbent. The
Democratic candidate was Tbos. 11. Ben
ton, jr. Mo return yet.
The legislature to be elected will choose
a United States senator in place of the
lion. James Harlan, who resigned his
seat in tho senate to acoopt the secretary
ship of the interior. Jno. A. Hasson,
Maj. (Jon. Curtis and Gen. fiU Henry
Warreu are candidates for the position.
Mississippi.— There seems to be some
exoiteinunt in this State on the subject of
negro testimony. One of the leading
journals of the State breaks with Gov.
Sharkey, because in his recent proclama
tion, iu which he accepts the proposition
of Colonel Samuel Thomas, assistant com
missioner of thd freed men's bureau, to
transfer to the civil authorities of the
state tho right to try all cases in which
the rights of freedmen are involved, he
advocates “the equality of the negro
before our judicial tribunals,’’ aud states
his couviction that the “late constitu
tional amendment makes the negro com
petent as a witness, according to tie
laws of evidence of the state.”
A mass meeting of the colored people
of Vicksburg was held a few days since,
at which topics promotive of their welfare
were discussed.
Txnnbsssb —H. 8. Foote—“the irre
pressible Foote”—is reported to be an
earnest R.lsooate of negro suffrage. Few
persons a, inclined to marvel at any
wh ira that may take possession of his
brain. A Republican paper in Illinois
says :
“It is a positive fact that in Tennessee
to day the rights of the colored race find
more favor with the intelligent, influen
tial ex rebels than even with the loyal
white masses.”
Our Republican cotemporary ought to
remember that suoh meu as Foote cannot
be taken as representative meu of any
section or party.
Ala ram*. —M. J. Bulger and R. M.
Fatten are candidates for Governor. The
former was an officer in the Confederate
army, but understood to have been a
compromise man in 1845. Mr. Patton is
an elderly gentleman and took no very
aolive part we believe in the Southern
movement. In a late address to the peo
ple of that State ho says:
During my long service in the Legisla
ture I have never favored any other prin
ciple of apportionment than that of the
white basis, and oertainly 1 see no cause
now to change the opinions of a lifetime
on (his subject. Not only have 1 always
favored the policy of apportioning Rep
resentatives and Senators in the State
Legislature aocordiug to the white popu
lation alone, but I have also uniformly
advocated the same principle in laying
the State oil' into Congressional Districts,
and the ordinance on that subject which
1 prepared and reported to the late Con
vention, and which was adopted almost
without ohange, was based upon this
principle. Tub Convention wisely left
the question of sufirago where it found it,
as regulated by the Constitution of 1819,
which confined the privilege of voting to
the white inhabitants of the State. That
being so, it would beau injustice which 1
could uever bariction to apportion Repre
sentative! among the several counties
otherwise than acoording to the white
population alone. This is a white man’s
Government, and we must beep this a
white’s Slate. We will, in good faith
give freedom to the nogro; we must all
make up our minds to this—but the po
litical power of the State we must and
wilt keep in the hands of its white citi
zens. The absurd project of conferring
the right of suffrage upon an ignorant
and semi-barbarous population of sud
denly emancipated slaves we can never
oonsent to, nor do I believe it would be
insisted on by the Northern people when
they give it a sober scoond thought.
South Carolina. —Gen. MoGowan,
one of the bravest of the Confederate offi
cers—was one of the prominent members
o( the South Carolina State Convention.
In a speech before that body he said:
“It is not true that South Carolina oar
ried a dagger uuderneatb her vestments.
She went out of the Union with an open
hand and an opeu heart, and she is going
baok into the Union with an opeu hand
and an open heart. She has lost all her
matonal resouroes, but she has not lost
her honor ; and she returns to the sister
hood of states, with full determination to
be true and loyal in word and deed.”
Kentucky.— Judge Apperson, of the
circuit court for Montgomery county,
Ky., has decided that the act of congress,
approved March 3, 1865, freeing the
wives and children of negro soldiers is
unconstitutional.
New York. —The Herald assumes that
the only test ot sinoere support of Presi
dent Johnson is to be in favor of his elec
tion as president in 1868. It puts the
question to Governor Heymour, John Van
Buren and the rest, if they are in favor of
it ? t
The Times of the 10th says:
The effect of the President’s conciliato
ry policy abroad has a practical illustra
tion m the news from Europe. The Pres
ident’s tpeech to the Southern delegation
is said to have inspired general confidence
in the speedy aud cordial reunion of the
North aud South. Along with this general
statement comes the report that “the
amount of business done in American se
curities has been of a magnitude unprece
dented since iheoutbreak of the rebellion.”
Further, we are told, “Five-twenties have
been latgely lakeu at au advance of quite
two per oeut.” The advance, however,
does not extend alone to government
bonds, but to other American securities as
well. We refer, in another oolumn, to
various oauses as leading to this result.
But the great central fact with which the
improvement m our credit is connected,
we lake to the interpretation which is put,
abroad, upoo the Executive policy of re
construction. The idea is that a perma
nent military occupation of the late insur
gent States means national bankruptcy,
that reunion, on the President’s simple
method, signifies natioual strength, sol
vency and good faith with the public
creditor. This foreign view of the case
ooinoides with liberal opinion here.
The idea that the Northern States,
whilst rejecting negro suffrage within
their own limits, will ever seriously un
dertake to foroe it upon ihe Southern
States, is too preposterous to be enter
tained in any quarter. The public mind,
North and South, is for the present made
up on the subject of negro suffrage. The
Radicals themselves will osase to agitate
the question soon, though probably with
an intention of renewing the agitation at
some future and more favorable time.
A struggle is approaching in this coun
try—and it is not a great way iu the fu
ture—iu which mind and soul, not muscle
aud sinew, will be of aooouut; in which
keen wit, not sharp swords, will triumph.
Brute force and material resources are on
the deoline, and must daily depreciate in
value. Mind will, in that struggle, re
assert its supremacy. Mind will rule aud
muscle will yieid.
[COMMUNICATSD.]
How !■ It i
Traveling over the Georgia State Road
(the Western and Atlantic) a short time
ago, I heard a conversation between two
passengers—cross-tie contractors —on that
road, from whioh I learned they were
getting fifty cents for cross-ties. I asked
if that was the rate paid all along the
road—they said it was. I then observed
that the prices paid on that road were
much higher than those of other roads,
and instanced the Muscogee Road whioh
was paying thirty cents for ties hewed
on four sides, all heart, while their con
tracts only required two sides to be
hewed, showing (as they said) six inches
of heart, and the bark only being taken
off the other two sides. Why this differ
ence, lam not able to oomprehend. Is it
that one is public, while the other is a
private, enterprise ? I have merely noticed
this to oall the attention ot the guardians
of the State’s interest to the matter, think
ing it was somebody’s business to do so.

the names of oertain parties, charged with
certain aots of disloyally, the President’s
Amnesty Proclamation including those
who iu 1862 registered themselves as
enemies of the United States Government.

abandonment of their right of property
in their slaves, they do not wish to be
considered as abaudouing all interest in
their present and future welfare. If the
slaves have secured their freedom by the
Unit*d States Government, they desire

cau be ooneistent with the rights of their
late owners, and thepeaoe and well being

that competent agents of the Freedmen’s
