Neeertheless, it is yru'.iHui<i to learn that he continue* firm aud unyielding in his reconstruction policy, and contends strongly and unanswerably for the right ot representation. In regard to the constitutional rights Qfthe several States, he is eloquent and forcible, and fortifies his position with extracts from the expressed views of some of the most distinguished of the lathers of the Republic. He goes farther, and urges the propriety ot allowing the people of the ] listrict Os Columbia to be repre sented in the House of Representatives bv a Delegate, chosen by themselves, as ill ‘ thfe case of Territories. He argues his points so well, and so forcibly, that there is scarcely anything to be added that could give additional weight or strength to them. His style, too, is mild and conciliatory; and will, it is to be hoped, have a good effect in the quarter whure a good effect is much to be jlesired. llis policy is the true policy. Let the Constitution be strictly construed, and faithfully observed. Let there be no taxation without representation. Let aft the rights of all the States be freely permitted, aud as freely observed. Con filiation will do more to restore the unity and harmony of the States, and the strength and power of the Govern ment. than all the harsh measures that were ever invented to punish a rebel lious people. We do not pretend to dicta e to the President or to Congress. \v e know that that would be folly. But we teel that, as an American citizen, we have a right to our opinions, and ; right to ex press them, and these we can give in the spirit ot kindness and good will to all of our countrymen. It is in this na tional spirit that we so freely express an opinion in regard to the policy of reconstruction. We have a common country now, and it is to the interest of all, in every sec tion, that political harmony should pre vail throughout that common country. Is this harmony, so desirable, to be obtained by harsh and arbitrary meas ures? Certainly not. Congress may have the right to enforce them, bat it is onlv the right which might gives, and ought not be exercised. The policy of th<- President Seems to us the wiser and bc-tt -r policy, lienee, we have advo c-k 1 t it and sustained him. But the people of tfie North have, by their re cent votes, placed it out of his power to enforce his views; and it is only for Congress now to decide whether it will adopt his wise and just suggestions, or continue its own policy. We hope that better counsels will prevail ; that that body will overcome its prejudices against the'Southern States and people, nn l.jVin with the President in his noble cGort to restore peace and unity to the whole Union ; and that they will not oiviv atlinit the Southern Stutfes to a r»-p --resi utatiou in their hotly, hut instruct the President to issue a General Am nesty Proclamation, including in it the e.t-President of the late “rebellious States.*’ This will give joy throughout tint land, restore peace, unity, political harmony, national greatness, linancial security, industry, and general prosper ity, through bll the wide borders ol the Union ; and secure the stability of the Government, in the closing language of President Johnson's Message : “ The interests of the nation are best promoted by the revival of fraternal relations, the complete obliteration of our past dif ferences, and tbe reinangttration of all the pursuits of peace. Directing our efforts to the early accomplishment of these great ends, let us endeavor to pre serve harmony between the coordinate Departments of the Government, that each in its proper sphere may cordially coOpcrate with the other in securing the maintenance of the Constitution, the preservation of ttxe U nioh, and the perpetuity of our f)t°.institutions. ’ TtMrttBANCE Lbctcbe.—We have listened to many elhUive arguments in favor of total abstinence, but we never hemU one. more exhaustive than that of the houisl Gorman, who was invited to speak at a meeting of the friends ot the temperance cause.
