Wc invite attention lathe ropy of
the bill byt >vr, introduced into thp
House of Reprocfnmtive* of Tuendny
la?t, by Mr. i’huddeus Stevens of
Pennsylvania, and is designed as its
author stairs, to enable the inhabitants
of the laic r, bel Stales to form Siaie
governments:
He it exacted by the Senate and
House of Hepresentafives of the United
State* oj America in Congress Assem
bled, That ail governments and pre
tended governments within that portion
of the territory which lately claimed to
belong to the Confederate Stairs of
America, and which the United Slates
have conquered, to-wit: The territory
called the Stale of Virginia (here fol
lows names ol all the Southern States,
designated as Virginia is, and the hill
then proceeds as follows:) are hereby
declared null and void and of no efleet,
other than than that which they shall
derive from the action of Congress.
Tlte municipal corporations and offices
rxisting de facto lor local purposes
Khali be continued until Congress, or
those authorized by Congress, shall
determine their existence.
Sr c. 2. And be it further enacted ,
1 hat until Uje said territories shall be
prepared with a proper constitution and
regularly admitted in the Union as
new States they shall be governed as
follows: i'hree commissioners, civil
iaus, shall be chosen by the joint ac
tum of the Senate aril House of Rep
resentatives for each of the divisions
now culled military districts, two of
whom shall be nominated by the House
and one by the Senate, who shall be
milled Commissioners of Reconstruc
tion. i hey shall discharge all the
duties which, by the act of .March 2,
1807, and its supplement of March 23,
18(>7, are now enjoined upon the
military commanders, except so far as
is altered by this act, and they shall
proceed to correct and complete tiie
registration a’readv in progress with
all convenient speed. When the reg
istration is completed they shall take
the same action with regard to the
formation of the constitution as is now
prescribed to the military commanders
jii the acts aforesaid, and whenever
any portion of said territory shall have
been formed into a proper State, and its
Constitution submitted to Congress and
approved by it, it shall be admitted
into the Union anil declared capable ol
representation in the Congress of the
1 iiifed Slates. 'The military com
manders and all military authority are
! ereoy rehevod from any duly within
t oTitory, except the preservation
• and peace, which they shall enforce
• p : »u the demand ol the Commissioners
• i Reconstruction or anv of them.—
i '• ' admission of new States into the
Union anti ine leeoustruction of old
•etej is the sole duty and work of
• hrigres and neither the President or
; iv heed of department* nor the ju
• ciary, nor the military, have any
: >at to interfere ill such matters,
i less r “quired by the Congress of the
United States. The opion of the At
torney General upon anv point con
nected with the admission of new
States, or the roconstructinn of destroy
ed ones, is unauthorized and ought not
to be obtruded upon the government.
Lest 11? ere may he a misunderstanding
with regard to who are entitled to
exercise the elective franchise, both in
the election of delegates to form a
convention and in the confirmation or
rejection of any constitution thc-y may
form, it is declared that all such per
sons who voluntarily engaged in the
laic rebellion shall be excluded from
registration, and such lad may be
proved by parole evidence, and for
that purpose tlte Commissioners of
Reconstruction, or either of them, shall
have full power to call witnesses, ad
minister oaths, ask qdesiious, and
conduct the examination in such man
ner as may be necessary to ascertain
the truth. Any f.dro swearing under
this law shad be deemed felony, and
punished as such. The residence
required in said acts must be continu
ous, immediately preceding the election
at v hifih the vote is offered. No
ijrrs m who. during the time of ttie
rebellion, held any judicial or executive
office under the government called the
Confederate States of America, or un
lit r either of said States, shall be
registered, nor military officers who,
dui ng the existence of the government
••f the Confederate States, held office
»it serin us army or in the army or
rniitia of either of &aid States ; and
’ othing in this act snail be held to
•admit to registration any of the classes
» xeluded by the ac: to which this is a
mpplement.
Sec. 3. And be it further enacted .
That the Commissioners of Recoil*
i-'.ruction, each xvithiu its own jurisdic
tion, shall have foil power to remove
any municipal officer or magistrate or
Stale judge, and, ii it sees proper, to
f,i! the vacancy by new appointment
■whenever it sh ill deem the public good
rhaii require it. From the acts and
doings of the respective boards and
fcomnaissions there shall be t.o appeal
except to Congress.
Sec 4. Aid bz it further enacted.
That so much of the act of March 2.
1567. and its supplement of March 23.
ISoT, as is r.ot altered by this act shall
remain in suit inroe and virtue.
Added to the bill, but without any
words of enactment, is a paragraph in
these words ;
•*lt *.he Commissioners of the State
of Tex .sand the State of Louisiana
►.n ill adjudge that the interests of the
country require the division of Texas
into two Status, they shall proceed to
ru . aid nark the division line, and
’T. ■- for 4» ? i:c in'
Union as here in prescribed.’’
This bill, with another presented by
Stevens, was referred, under the rules,
to the Committee on Reconstruction.
Tfte Violation of Parole.
!? the telegraph is to be credited. Gen
eral Pope ha? made an extraordinary
ruling with regard to the paroles ol ex-
Confeder.atea, and General Grant has
endorsed this etrange interpretation of
bis lieutenant. We learn that our Dis
trict Command cr lias decided that op
position to the Military Bill on the
part of those having paroles is ip soft c
to, a violation of the parole itseß. By
■ what legerdemain or special pleading
this conclusion has been retfehud. we
are at a loss to determine But, inas*
much as congress has empowered it s
satraps to do as they please, this edict
may not be amenable to the ordinary u
sage of reason, as it is beyond the a
vailing criticism of the powerless.—
By the terms of Gen. Johnston’s sur
render, prisoners of war agreed not
to takeuparms against the U. S-
They were promised immunity so long
as they obeyed the laws enforced at
their place of residence at the time of
surrender ,
Asa matter ofcourse, they did not
promise to obey the law which had no
existence. How, then, they can vio
late that which did not enter into their
engagement, we do not perceive, ft
Congress and its kings are bent upon
ruling us in flagrant opposition to
every principle ol honor, what need of
any option all with regard to regsitra
tion. Cenvention, and other mocker
ies ?
As ihe bill itself guarantees the light
of each person entitled to register in
the free choice of voting for or against
its different provisions, we must say
that the alleged decision of Pops
is quite extraordinary and indefensible
We have, so far, received it with grains
of allowance, and trust to have it dis
credited. If. however, it be affirmed,
bis justice is very much in the style
of the ancient Persians, who solved the
doubt of a mans guilt or innocence by
casting him into a well. II he drown
ed, bis innocence was established ; if
he scrambled out, lie was straightway
hung. Should the Radical party, at
the bidding of Generals Grant and
Pope, adopt this theory with regard
to par des we respectfully refer thsm
to the Scripture phrase which says :
‘•God shall smite thee, tiiou whited
wall, for sit test thou to judge me ac
cording to the law, and commamlest
me to be smitten contrary to law.”
Constitutionalist.
From the Patterson (N .!) Guardian.
22tirsai:i£ of Breuhaiu, Texas.
Mr. McAusland. well known to our
people, and a highly resnecled citizen,
formerly of this city and latterly ol
Texas, has arrived here. We believe
he thinks Texas used up as a place for
while men in the future. Before he
came away lie saw a jury in the court
house composed of eleven negroes and
one white man. This was now noth
ing uncommon.
Mr. Mc\usland brings the correct
account of the atrocities now practised
upon the whites by tiie negroes, insti
gated by the troops.
He gives full particulars ol the
burning of the town of Brenham, in
Washington county. The first trouble
occurred at a private invitation ball
given by a party of young men, who
had taken their sisters and sweethearts
to the hall hired for the purpose. In
their midst ol their enjoyment tin:
officers stationed in the vicinity at
tempted to gain admission, and after
wards brought in five negro wanches,
whom they insisted on having admitted
promiscously in the dance. Os course
this produced trouble. The young men
protested, ar.d declared the negro
wenches must not only keep out of the
quadrilles but leave the room —it was a
private ball. 'The officers declared they
should keep their black partners in the
room, and also that they should be
admitted inuiserimately to the nances.
The white girls declined to dance in
quadrilles with the negro wenches, and
were about to retire when they were
insulted by the officers; tiffs produced
a rumpus —the young men of the town
rallied, a fight commenced, and the
result was that the officers and wenches
were cleaned out. Ihe next day tiie
troops returned, and in revenge burned
up the business part of the place and
gave the whites notice to leave as they
would come back and finish the job.
This they did, and burned up the court
house and churches, again ordering all
whites to leave. They next aided by
a drove of negroes, destroyed every
building in the town. Not a «ingle
house was standing when Mr. McAus
!and left, to mark stood so re
centiv the flourishing and happy town
of Brenhaoi) Washington county, Tex

Kentucky. —There are those who
believe that the States of Kentucky.
Maryland and Deieware will all be
blessed with military governments be
fore another seed time, as an appropri
ate reward for declining to affiliate and
sell out body ami soul to the Radicals.

Tiie Lost Opportunity.
The Louisville Couriered 23d says ;
The veto message of President John
son proves that high official to be fully
alive to the revolutionary character of
the men who compose the majority in
the present Congress. As much as has
been said, by the press and orators of
the Democratic party, to the despotic
tendencies, of Radicalism, we have
nowhere seer. Radical heresies painted
in stronger colors than by the hand of
His Excellency in his recent message.
11 is review of the so-called reconstruc
tion acts of Congress is at once
exhaustive and scathing, He shows
conclusively that the reconstruction
legislation cf Congrpss is not only
constitutionally invalid, but that it is
subversive ol tiie very fundamental
principles of the Government, lie
points out so distinctly, that the man
must be blind indeed who fails to see
it, the hideous crime against liberty and
the Constitution committed by the
Radical leaders in subjecting twelve
million people to a despotic military
rule over which he Constitution is still
nominally in force. lie calls the atten
tion of the American people to the
shameless inconsistency of now treating
as conquered territories States that
have been recognized ns such by Con
gress. by the Supreme Court, and by
the Government, time and again, dur
ing, and since, the war. He sets forth,
in bold relief, the incompatibility of the
system inaugurated by the military bill
with right, justice and republican gov
ernment.
Ills manner, in short, of discussing
tliis last Radical infamy established,
beyond question, his belief, or rather
knowledge, that Congress is a despotic
and revolutionary body, as at present
constituted, and that the States now
subjected to its usurpation, oppression
and tyranny are entitled to full and
equal rights in the Federal Union.
It is all well enough for President
Johnson to express these sound and
wholesom views. It is sort of conso
lation to hear the Constitutional Chief
M agistrate of the nation talk patriotical
and logically. Itafioids some gleam
o- satisf-ction to know that we have a
man in the Prcsidental chair who dis
sents tofo ccefo from the destructive
heresies of the Radical party, and who
remembering the Government
was intended to be, and what it once
was is desirous of seeing the old or
order of things restored. All this, we
say, is gratifying, although we know
that Iffs objections to the measures of
Congress are, so far as their practical
effect upon congress is concerned, but
as the sounding brass and the tinkling
ey mhal.
President Johnson can talk and
write, lull that is all. As the action
upon the latest reconstruction bill has
already shown, more than the requisite
two-thirds majority stand prepared, at
all times, to carry any measure over
iffs head as soon as it is vetoed. Not
only this, but lie has been legislated
out jf his legitimate official power —that
power which might have enabled him
to avert much evil fiom the country.
There was a time when things did not
stand thus. There was a time when
Andrew Johnson had it in his power to
do something more than write state
papers, however able, upon the inlrac"
tions of the Constitution by the Radicals,
and when, if he had had tiie nerve, he
mu-ht have averted from the ten South
ern States the despotic rule that he now
so strongly and eloquently deprecates.
At as for tiie lost opportunity!
If Andrew Johnson had been Andrew
Jackson, when, on the close ot ’lie war
the Senators and Representators of the
South made their appearance in Wash
ington. and it became apparent that the
Jacobins intended to refuse them
admission into Congress- he would
have notified them in conjunction with
the conservative members to organize,
and then, as constituting what would at
ihat time have been a majority, he
would have recognized them as the
Congress of the United States, by
communicating officially with them, and
not with the Radical majority. After
that, if the Radical Dpetnbtrs aad chc-s
en to take their seats, well. If not,
they could have gone home, and their
constituencies might have remained un
represented until such time as they
could elect mure reasonable Represen
tatives. But we are convinced there
would have been no occasion for any
new elections, for every one ot the re
fractory members would speedily have
come to terms. Nor do we belHeve
any actual conflict would have resulted
from such a proceeding. As com m3 l’--
der-in-ehief of the army h? could ieasi!_>
have overawed anything like rebellious
sentiments. If this course had been
taken what calamities would have been
averted. The country would now be
at peace, and, instead of the sectional
Jacobin crew now legislating at Wash
ington for vengeance and despotism, we
should have a national Congress leg
islating for the good of the whole
country. Again we say, Alas for the
lost opportunity !
Is the opportunity then entirely
gone? We have no hopes from John
son ; but even yet’ were Andrew Jack
son, or many a man still living, in his
place, lie would find, or make an op
portunity of doing something for his
country, and constitutional freedom.
J. W. Burke & Cos., (Publishers of
Burke’s Weekly) will begin very soon
the publication of a very interesting
story of life in Texes, during the early
history of that Stale? It is from the
pen of a talented Floridian, now resi
dent in Texas, and the pictures are
drawn from life. He was one of the
survivors of Fannin’s ill-fated band;
was with that brave officer when he was
captured, and was left by the Mexicans
ior dead, after the inhuman butchery ol
Iffs brave associates. In this narrative
he details Iffs marvellous escape at that
time, and his wanderings for weeks,
while attempting to reach the white
settlements. This paper is beautifully
printed, and full of matter, such as will
be very interesting to Boys and Girls,
who can appreciate good reading. It is
published at Macon, Ga., at Two Dol
lars per annum.
Joe Brown in the Baptist Con
vention of 1563.
This notorious character, whose sli
my trial has ever bee seen stickiest a‘id
slimiest within the sacred precincts of
the church, in 18G3, thus ventilated iffs
mock patriotism A resolution com
memorative of Stonewall Jackson being
on its passage, the Govenor deemed it a
favorable opportunity to impress upon
the bretlieren Iffs great zeal, and stead
fast patriotism. Listen to him :
“Suppose we now-refuse to pass the
resolutions upon your table, what will
be the effect ? The abolition Govern
ment at Washington will sav that toe
Babtists of the South* in States were
very warlike two years since, but that
the experience of that period has aha*
ted their ardor, and they are looking
for a back door though which to escape
into the old Union, i trust there is
not a Baptist in this Convention, or in
the Confederacy, who will ever con
sent to a reconstruction of the IJuion.
or to any political union with the abo
lition States, upon any terms or under
any circumstances whatever.” *
And then again this ;
“What family in the Confederacy
has not been made to mourn on ac
count of the wongs inflicted by our
cruel enemy ? How then, can you or
I, or any other member of this conven
tion, or anv member of a Christian
church, or good citizen of the Confed.
States ever consent to shake hands
with our invaders, over the graves of
our dear ones slain in the battle, and
again embrace them in fraternal politi
cal relations ? Is any one so visiona
ry as to suppose that the Union could
ever be reconstructed, and the
States of either section placed hack
where they were before the war was
forced upon us- ? It could only be
r* constructed by our subjugation
which would force us back into a grand
consolidated military despotism, bur
dened with chains and taxations in
sufferable —hewers of wood and draw
ers of water for cruel masters. In
such an event, our condition would be
the most degraded and deplorable of
anv people on the face of the earth.
Sooner than submit to this, let us
with our wives and children follow
those who have gone to them, and let
our beloved land betomea blowing
waste.
There is plenty more of the same
sort, but this will suffice for the present
it is to he hoped the josephines will
read prayerfully and ponder well.

“Good Bye Long-street !”—The
Baton Rouge Aelvocate says : “If
Longstreet has gone to the Radicals,
he is dead to us, and we draw down a
veil, behind which is all that is bright
and glorious of our Confederate Gene
ral. Beyond the screen, a Longstreet
may participate in the wild deviltry ol
the bitter oppressors ot his people, hut
there will he few to follow him in his
wild career. There will be few who
will care tr. recognize in the future
Radical leader the mar* whe led our
ragged hosts into the very jaws of
death in defense of his country. It
was not then decided by the sword that
we should be deprived of our every
right. It is even now left to us to
swell the ranks of the great majority of
thp people of this -Uiiroiui whietl' hriajor
jty i- at this day in. favor of granting
us equal rights. The Radical majork
ties ot last year were the fruits of the
unfortunate jint in New Orleans, ami
there is every indication that Northern
public sentiment has recovered from
the spasm of anger, which caused bv
that riot resulted in Radicalizing Con
gress and fastening upon us the milita
ry bill

with us and patiently await otir res
toration. but lie lias chosen otherwise,
and instead of being followed into the
camp of our enemies by our people,

The President’s Message tn Re
gard to the Expense of Recon
struction.
In obedience to a resolution, the Pres
ident sent into Congress a few days a
go, a message, and accompanying doc
uments, in relation to the expenses
past present and to come, actual and
incidental to the great work of recoir
stavgtion. Some suggestions contain
ed in that paper seem to have stirred
the gorge of the more billions radicals
in the Hall, and called additional male
dictions on the head of the occupant
of the White House. The telegraphic
report was imperfect and unsatisfacto
ry, and we therefore copy from the
Washington papers such portions of
the message as are neccessary to a
clear underslanding of its tone ar.d
facts. The President says :
In answer to that portion of the reso
lution which inquires whether the suin
of money heretofore appropriated for
carrying these acts into eflect is proba
bly sufficient reference is made to the
companying report of the Secretary o{
War. It will be seen from that report
that the appropriation of five hundred
thousand dollars, made in the act ap
proved March 30. 1867, for the pur
pose of carrying into effect the “act
to orovide for the more efficient gov
ernment of the rtbel States.’ passeu
March 2, 1807, and the act supplemen
tary passed March 23, 1867, has al
ready been expended by the coalman
dersof the several military districts, and
that in addition, the sum of §1,648.277
is required for the present purpo
ses.
It is exceedingly difficult at the pres
ent time to estimate the probable ex
pense of carrying into full eflect the
two acts of March last, and the bill
which passed the two Houses of Con
gress on the 13 instant. If the existing
Governments often States of the Union
are to l.e deposed, and their entire ma
chinery is to he placed under the ex
clusive control aud authority of the re
spective district commanders, all the
expenditures incident to the adminis
tration of such governments must nec
essarily be incurred by the Federal
Government. It is believed that in ad
dition to the two millions one hundred
thousand dollars already expended or
estimated lor, the sum which would he
required for this purpose would not be
less than fourteen millions of dollars,
the aggregate amount expended prior
to the rebellion in the administration
of their respective governments by the
ten States embraced in the provisions of
these acts. This sum would, no
doubt, be considerably augmented if
the machinery of these States is to be
operated by the Federal Government,
and would be laigely increased if the
United Stales, by abolishing the exis
ting State Governments, should become
responsible for liabilities incurred by
them before the rebellion, in lauda
ble efforts to develop theii resources,
and in no wise created lor insurrection
ary or revolutionary purposes. The
debts of these States, thus legitimately
ncurred, when accurately ascertained,
will, it is believed, approximate a hun
dred millions of dollars, and they are
held not only by our own citizens, a
morig whom are tesidents of portions
of the country which have ever re
mained loyal to the Union, but by per
sons who are the subjects of Foreign
Governments. It is worthy the con
sideration of Congress and the country
whether if the federal Government, by
its action, were to assume such obliga
tions, so large an addition to our pub
lic expenditures would not seriously
impair the credit of the nation ; or on
the other hand, whether the retusal of
Congress to guarantee the payment of
the debts of these States, alter having
displaced or abolished their State Gov
ernments, would not be viewed as a
violation of good faith and a repudia
tion, by the National Legislature, of
liabilities which these States had justly
and legally incurred.
