Wt. Sherman’s Bill.
Nothing can be of more importance
or of more special and general interest
to tbe people -of -the South, than the
political fate which awaits them at the
hands of Congress. What that fate will
be, we cannot foresee. It ia easy to
indulge in suppositions and conjectures
but not so easy to foretell what it
will be. For our part, we do not be
lieve that Sherman’s bill will pass the
House of Representatives. It is not
severe enough iu its details to satisfy
the hatred and vindictiveness of Thad
deus Stevens, the whippcr-iu of that
body; and it will, therefore, be so
ameuded as to conform to his military
bill; and between the two measures,
the unfortunate South will, we appre
hend, go bobbing up and down like a
shuttle cock between two battledoors.
Thus, to-day we shall be kept in fear
of a Territorial and Provincial Govern
ment, under the Presidential patronage,
and to-morrow of a Military Govern
ment, under the authority of the Com
mander-in-Chief. Between the .two
evil and wrong as both are in principal,
in theory, and in practice—there is yet
somewhat of a choice between them.
Mr. Stevens’ bill consigns us almost
entirely to the mercy of a military
satrapy, disfranchising nearly all of our
people, aud depriviug us of nearly all
our civil rigbts. On the contrary, Mr.
Sherman leaves us somewhat in the
hands of the President, who is to have
the appointment of the Provisional Gov
ernors, the suspension of capital sen
tences, aud the Habeas Corpus to con
tinue in force. With these provisions,
our political fate will be less burthen
some, and, therefore, more bearable,
than under Mr. Stevens’ bill. But we
hope that neither one will become law-
The members of Congress ought to
know, and mu.stknow, that any measure
which effects the liberties of the South,
must also effeet the liberties of the
North ; and that in shackling us they
are but forging chains with which to
bind their own section to ruin, poverty,
and disgrace. Knowing this, they will
not, we hope, result to the enforcement
of such hard measures as they are con
tinually bringing before each House.
These measures will do very well to
unite and strengthen their party, for a
time, but they will eventually react upon
themselves and bring failure and defeat
where they look for victory and success.
They are wise enough to see this ; and
hence, they will “keep the ball in mo
tion,” by continually keeping before
Congress such harsh measures as those
to which we have alluded. But they
will, in our judgement, finally adopt
some plan which will be less severe than
these mentioned, and so, while keeping
up to the strict requiremenfs of Radical
principles, in theory, deviate somewhat
n practice for policy’s hake.
The Cretan Revolution.
It is a little singular that the North
ern Radicals should become so
vindictive and spiteful towards
tbe South for attempting to
achieve its independence, and, at the
same time express the most earnest sym
pathy for the rebels of Ireland and of
Crete. They are inconsistent. They
don’t practice what they preach. It is
all right for tbe Irish people and the
Candian people to rebel against their
Governments, and to involve nations in
war, as is now threatened in the cose
of the Cretans, but it is all wrong for
the Southern people to attempt the
same thing.
Well, we do not intend here to defend
the right of revolution, or to condemn
the Cretans or any pther people for at
tempting to throw off the yoke of politi
cal despotism. We should be pleased
to see Republicanism—a pure Repub
licanism however—established every
where, if the people were fitted for it.
But as this is an impossibility, why,tbe
next best thing is for the people to be
consistent; and if they condemn our
people for asserting their independence,
mete out tbe same judgement to all
others who make tbe same attempt.
The Cretans may be a very good peo
ple—a very persecuted people—but they
must be a rather barbarous people, if
the account is true that several Turkish
outposts had been captured and no
quarter given. Besides this, we observe)
by late European accounts, that the
Sultan of Turkey has resolved to eman
cipate his Christian subjects from ull
disabilities, aud has issued a call for a
Turkish Parliament, This is an im
portant and generous movement, which
we strongly commend to the considera
tion of our Radical friends. Let them
sympathize with rebellious Cundiu ii
they please, but let them also imitate
the conduct of the Sultan and emanci
pating the so-called rebels of the South,
from all disabilities, re-establish a peace
ful and prosperous Uniop.
The following paragraphs are from
the New York 'fribune of the 12th inst.
The Sultan, seeing no other escape
from the troubles aiming ou every side,
has resolved to emancipate the Cbria
tiass from all disabilities and has issued
a card for a Turkish Parliament. This
is an important Rove, but whether, it
will have tbe destwd effiset is more than
doubtful. 0**"".
Our special disaatche* from Constan
tineple an noence that Turkey Is maklag
great preparations for war. This ap
pears to iudicate that Russia iutends to
reopen the Eastern question, and that
the Cratscu revolution 4S about to result
in more important hostilities.
Steven*’ Military Bill.
Editor Daily Prats:— Tbq bitterest
enemy of tbe Radical majority in tbe
XXXIXth Congress could scarcely have
devised a more crushing condemnation
of Gieir utter failure to perform the
great work which they undertook, than
that which they have pronounced upon
themselves, in the Bill which Thaddeus
Stevens has framed for tbe reconstruc-
tion (f) of the Southern States. It is a
confession of imbecility which condemns
them to a more infamous distinction
than that of ‘‘the fool that fired the
Ephesian dome,” while it is the most
lawless subversion of popular lib
erty, aud the most daring betrayal of
popular trust, -of which any representa
tive body has ever been guilty. From
the 4th of December, 1866, to the pres
ent hour, the representatives of the
Northern States, arrogating to them*
selves the sole power and authority to
regulate the Government of “the United.
States lately in rebellion,” have had the
subject of reconstruction under consid
eration to the almost total exclusion o*
every other subject; aud at the end of
that time, just as they are about to pass
out of legislative existence,.they abolish
civil government of every kind, abrogate
the Constitution root and branch, and
hand over the millions of people
whom they choose to denominate rebels,
to the complete, absolute, and irrespon
sible control of a little Brigadier Gene
ral, whose sovereign will is to be their
sole law, and whose nod is to be their
supreme guide. These satraps are to en
force, not our laws, for these and our
right to grant them are wiped out; not
the laws of the United States, for these
do not apply to the punishment ot lnr.
ceny, burglary, felony, and other kin
dred crimes, to the enforcement of
contracts, or the regulation of the vari
ous relations of individual citizens ; but
such laws and regulations as they may
see fit to establish within the limits ot
their respective provinces. The writ of
Habeas Corpus, and trial by jury are
to be abolished, and our lives, liberties,
and property, placed indefinitely at the
mercy of the Brigadier General and his
underlings.
To read this reconstruction measure,
which it took two years to devise, no
body could suppose that profound peace,
not only in the meaning of the Consti
tution and the laws, but in fact and
common sense, reigns in the States
which are to be thus remanded to mili
tary control. One would suppose that
flagrant war and insurrection existed
everywhere, and that Congress was only
providing the means of repelling iuva
sion and suppressing insurrection,
which the supreme law has conferred
upon that body. But Union men and
negroes must be protected Irwn the
appalling persecutions ami outrages
which they are suffering, at our rebel
lious hands 1 The tender hearts of
Thad Stevens and B. Butler are lace
rated by the accounts which they re
ceive by every mail, of the battle,
murder, and sudden death, to which
Union men and freedmen are exposed
in all the rebel Stites; and as there
cannot be a shadow of a doubt that
their informants are correct, and that
the denial of such miscreants a3 we are
is not to be credited, even though it be
on oath, what can the fountains of
benevolence and mercy do but send us
a Brigadier, whose duty it shall be to
stimulate our loyalty by bayonets,
soothe our troubled spirits by imprison
ment, lighten our burden of care and
responsibility by confiscation, and in
struct us in the knowledge and practice
of sell-government, by enforcing a
servile, unconditional obedience to his
decrees ?
A copperhead, a miserable conservn
tive, or a truculent rebel, may have rtc
pected that the powerful, super-loyal
aud Union-loving majority in Congress,
after two years anxious deliberation,
might have devised some measure which
even squinted towards peace, harmony,
restoration of friendly relations and con
fidence between the North and South,
and might have held out to us, vile sin
uers though we be, some remote pros
pect of living once more under a free
government of our own choosing, and
under laws of our own making. These
poor disbelievers in the omniscience and
omnipotence of the Radicals, may think
that to hand over one third of the coun
try and one third of the population to
the most odious kind of military despot
ism, is not exactly in harmony with the
spirit of republican institutions, aud
can hardly be said to accord with those
principles of self-government which for
many years American citizens have been
taught to admire, respect and cherish
as the palladium of liberty; and they
might even go to the extreme length ot
thinking that the men who passed such
a law have not exactly supported, pro
tected and defended the Constitution of
the United States, as they promised on
oath, inasmuch as there are portions of
that old instrument which forbid the
suspension of the great writ, guarantee
a trial by jury, and that a speedy one,
to all accused persons, and expressly
guard against the systein ri ofgoverntncnt
which the little brigadiers are likely to
follow and execute.
Shellaburgcr' insists that we are at
trar, and must be treated as it we were
in arms against the government which
is straining every nerve to preserve the
Union. Boutwell would regard it as
the “greatest possible calamity,” if the
their executive, legislative aud judicial
brigadier* are not ordered to enter on
function* at the earliest practicable mo-
Bkeut) aud Thayer enthusiastically and
piously hail* tbe establishment of an ig*
nor ant and brutal military despotism
. *s “an initial point from which the
nation can safely start in the adjustment
of this momentous question,” aud which
has • direct tendency to “secure uuiform
liberty, uniform happiness, and uniform
prosperity throughout) the length and
breadth of the whole country.”
Iu view'of such .» calamity as this bill
must bring upon ns, even though the
Supreme Court Would ultimately declare
it void, ought not our people, while we
protest against such, oppression, prove
to the masses of the Northern people,
who are made to believe that we murder,
burn, and lash Union men and negroes
every day, that their stories sre infa
mous falsehoods, that we are anxious
for peace, willing to make concessions,
and ready to accept the terms of Sena
ator Dixon’s amendment? By such an
exhibition of our disposition we would
materially strengthen the conservatives
who have tried to defeat Stevens’ revolu
tionary measure, and perhaps save our
selves from the iron grasp of the Prse
torian guards who are being mustered
for our destruction.

Hoq.—Tbe Baton Rouge Comet wives
the death of a negro under circum
stances of the most singular character.
The negro had been hunting wild hogs,
and shot one, but the wound not proving
mortal, a struggle took place. The
Comet says :
“The negro and tbe hog were both
found dead—the negro with his under
jaw firmly held within thj jaws of his
- formidable antagonist, whose upper
teeth had penetrated within tbo negro’s
pionth, while its under teeth held fast
to the chin of the poor darkey, who in
this strange encounter proved both
victim and victimizer.”

ANNOUNCEMENT !
THURSDAY EVENING, FKB. 21, 1886.
THE PUBLIC ARE RESPECTFULLY
informed tbat Mr. WMi HANLON,
assisted by his two brothere, GEORGE,
and ALFRED HANtON, will appear In
hie marvellous act of
“ZAraPIUUjEBOSTATION P*
the most daring performance that h; • ever
been presented upon any Stage, or before
any audience in the world I
Eor this performance, three trapeze) or
swings bave been built, and secured down
tbe centre ©f tbe auditorium, with tbe
elevated platforms or starting pl»cee at
each termination of tho trapeior. Thn
enormous space of the auditorium is tra
versed in the incredibly daring feat of Mr.
WILLIAM HANLONi Leaping from the
bar of one trapeze to tbe other, nntil be
afrivea at the final platform, some idea of
' the superlr courage aud agility displayed
in this feat may be formed. The great
novelty and wonder consists in the fearful
speed and consummate grace with which
tpo daring gymnast dashes through tho
air, as well as the unwavering judgment
and unerring aecuraey necessary to insure
bis catching at a oertain angle, the oscil
lating bar which is thrown upwards to
meet his grasp when he makes his forward
leap. Hs next takes tbe trapeze in bis
bands and springs forward, and on making
the leaps to tho second and third trapezes,
h« actually revolves in the air, turning
himself entirely round before he reaches
them. After this, to cap the terror of the
whole performance, he repeats the leap
from one trapezo to the other, making a
somersault iu the air in the interval from
leaping the one bar until he reaches the
nekt. No one can fully realize the per
formance without peeing it, when it will be
candidly admitted to be completely beyond
rivalry, both in the boidnoss of its concep
tion, add the unexeinplod daring of its
execution, making a legitimate claim to
tbe appellation of the most marvellous feat
ever presented to the publio.
