God in
We have in our p >esc sion a ctlpy o
the Uincinnhlti Enquirer which contains
a long leader remiudidg the radicals of
the Black Republican party that they
piomised, in the event Lincoln would
issue a proclamation declaring the de
grees free, the Lord would at once
make bare His arm smite the rebels hip
and thigh, and shiilo graciodsly upon
the armies «f tlie Union. The En
quirer urges that a considerable period
has elapsed since such a proclarn<ition
w;-s issued, and yet no signs of a sp«i
dial interposition in 11 c r behalf are a«•
parent. It Serious questions whether
•lavery is the (rod abholcd ms itirioo
the Abolitionists would have the world
have world believe, says:
It may be thought by some, rather
strange than w’berwisc, that God, who
is reported to be allwise and unchange
able, and who established slavery in
the law as given to Moses, should of
late coine out so decidedly against ii.
We may suspect true explanation oi
this to be—and iedted it is in entire
conformity wi.h the clerical idea that
all wisdom and Unchangeable ness arc
theologically the expressions ofielativc
qualities and mean simply that God
thinks thus and thus, us be uat pres
ent advised.
Not tbat be Jiibs n»t progress, and is
tfbither amenable to reason, affected by
the force of public sentiment. The era
of Moses was considerably before the
the day of Parkers, the Phillieses, the
Lovejoy# ifnd the Beechefs. It was be
fore days of William L. Stone, in the
New York Spectator, and of Charles
ZfamMond in the Cincinnati Gazette,
and long before the days of those great
er luminalies, the Tribunes, the Posts,
the Independent*, in whose ‘foci’ the
negro is so exalted and illustrated that
even his maker would hardly recognize
his tfwn handiwork in the glorified be
ing that is presented to his infection.
Had God, in his first dispe isati'on, been
favored with the assistance of the
Beecher family, with an occasional
word of udvice Grcely, JJrownson,
and Giddings, there is, at least room to
conjecture that upon the slavery qm s
tion the Leviticus would have a very
different appearance.’
In concluding tht Enquirer tlnrs can*
tcriz.es the Abolitionists.
“And now we, on behalf of the peep a
have the right to inquire: Where 0
ye whole counsel, and sne rk the de
crees of the Almighty—where are the
victorious that, in hi* name, ye prom •
ised? Where is lhef ifnited people, the
restored coslidencc, the reconstructed
Union, the vind cated Constitution;
where tl.t> h<>pe of eitending sur na
tionality over this vast continent;
where ia <>ur present and our hope of
future pVospftVity; where, even, that
citil Jibterty which we once bdtiTS’
ted as our peculiar birth right: and
which wo once flattered ourselves
never would and never could be taken
away?
“Overall these things yeu prom : sed,
upon certain conditions and especial ex
ertion of di vino guardianship. The con.
ditions have been complied wilh; wlierc
is the We arc a deeply
humiliated people with little prospect
except for deeper and less tolerable hu
miliations. And your darling and pe»
culiar trophies—what are they? Twen
ty or thirty thousand* negroc*, seduced
or driven from their horpeS. naked,
homeless, starving and dying under
the. paternal care es yonrsclyee and
Government. Does the otl-sceirfw- ere
VOL. XX—NO.
cf God looked own upon Ik st'dniJ more
redundant in all the blepiehts of
sorrow and repentance?
And we have.lbfe right to say further
ihat in making these profiiiS’cl in the
name of God you li jd. What is more
you kucw at the time that you were ly
ing. You knew nothing of His will.—
It was your own mad passions and f.is
natic designs that you presented to the
woi Id as divine Revelations. At once
hypocrites and destructives,’yon have
labored to plunge this country into a
war, ami are now laboriHg to’bar every
.avenue to its extrication. Upon you

desolation of our homes iilifre’ Hdjnflti

as you arc of remorse. In this unbsly
enterprise you have prostituted yow
reason sad yosr religion. Itfthe worst
of all sins in this world is blasphemy,

the last great day es account ysit do
not call upon the rocks and mountains
to fall upon you, will be no pailieulsts

Senator Johnson’Bßill-
Some cuiiesity has been expressed'to
see the amendment of the Constitution
proposed l>y Senator Johnsen, of Gh..
and which was announced by tele
graph as providing for peaceiifel£ se
cession. We published the bill in full
in our yesterday morning’s edition.
For some unexplained feuson tHe
makers of the Constitution of the Conted
era'e States (neglected to incorpcr*
aie in that instiumett any’ prprijl-*
ion by which any single State; cenaHv
ing itsrlf aggrieved by tlie actfonwfdß
Confedeiate Goversment, could: tectffe
redress. To obtain even an amendment
of the Constitution the concurrence St
tion of three Stages is requisite; and*a»
modfe' is pointed out by which redresft-af
grievances can I»fc bad by a single Slate,
Even if twb tithe.'s concur wilh the ta
jured State, the utmost they
to reccommend an amendment df 'She
Constitution; if the amendment 1s not
ratified by the legislatures or (jonven
tion oft wosthirds of tlie States,it cannot:
become pait of the m»d
the injured State has no other catfrtfb'
left but submission. .. .. u ,, ■
This is the nearest approach ta n Wilk
edy for grievances’eantained fa tho’Obn
stiiution as it stand. It is ncithaHtf
probable nor impossible thalf eonftidts
will arise between a Stato and ti»e Con
federate gavei nment. orm
flicts arc so probable that they hate al
ready arisen even in the midst W tfcte
stnfggfa’for the existence of birth and
bc r o»e the Constitution was two yesrff
old. There is abundance of evidence
that questions will -arise between tlta
States and the Cen•'ceterate Government
dangerous to their harmony.
It is prudent thcrefo.e, that sDhfc'
method of settling such questions should!
be determined on. This mblhod 1 itfpvo-’
posted by Senator Johnson’s bill; If tW
aggrieved State cannot obtain redress’
by a Convention, it shall have the lib
erty of peaceable sccejfls'ion. We cabN
AUf esneeivd that any valid objection
can be made to the bill. It is founded
>m the right which the North has com
pelled ns to maintain by arms. Among
upon the principle that an in jilted State
in the event that no redress can be ob- F
tained otherwise may, as the last re*
sort, peacefully seccdb'; and since the
right is thus impliedly yielded, ‘ there
can be no objection to its being exs
pressly‘nominated in the bond.’ Tlie'
amendment proposed by Senator (lotin-e
son by no means increases the darigtv
of the disruption of the
in fact it lias the tendency tb' p&Wnt
it, mid disputes are less likely
from the assertion of a well defined" and
established right, or from the de
mand for a constitutional remedy, than"
when either are left doubtful, /fad' a
similar provision bees incorporated'in*
the Constitution of the.. United &tseU,-
we shtrtild not now have
the evils of war, for there’’ Woultf' Uvl
been no excuse for the Federal QdvbriiV
men tto have ucd force. Wc thiwk.
