J P. MASON A CO. Aug. 31 —1 year. F'uiiithv Athei>» (Tenn.) Post. 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 the slaughter our battle fields and the desolation of our homes iilifre’ Hdjnflti ence. Your ht'b as : ncapabableof pity 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 wor.-t of blasphemeis. Aud if, on the last great day es account ysit do not call upon the rocks and mountains to fall upon you, will be no pailieulsts use for rocks and mountains in tlio di» vise economy. 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. tlicreleio,. that Hie amendment '6¥bv
