Leona, come close to my bed.
And lay your dear hand on ray brow,
The same touch that blessed me in days
arc fled,
And raised the last roses of youth from the
dead,
Can brighten the brief moments now.
We have loved from the cold world apart,
And your trust was too generous and true,
For their bate to overthrow, when the slan
derer’s dart,
Was ranking deep in my desolate heart,
I was dearer than ever to you.
I thank Thee, Great Father for this,
That our love i3 not lavished in vain,
Each germ, in the future will blossom to bliss
And the forms that we love and the lips that
we kiss.
Never shrink at the shadow of pain.
Uj the light of this faith I ant taught
That my labor is only begun,
Ja the strength of this hope, have 1 struggled
and fought
With the legions of wrong, till my armor lias
caught

From headland and from hill-side and deep,

TnE Sultan of Turkey hasMireoted the
translation of the Koran to be made so
that every educated Turk may read it
for himself in his own language. The
Koran has never before been put into
the hands of its believers in any other
form than its native Arabic, and strict
Mohammedans regard the translation as
impious. When remonstrated with, the
Minister uf the Sultan replied that Chris
tians are translating their sacred books
find placing them iu the hands of the
Turks, and that he is doing this
means of self-defence.
Suppressed Testimony of Gen. Lee Be
fore the Reconstruction Committee.
“Mack,” the Washington correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial, says ;
I am sorry to observe a disposition on the
part of the Reconstruction Committee to
suppress, in the pretended publication of
General Lee’s testimony, the most im
portant portion of that distinguished offi-
cer’s examination. I violate no confidence
in giving it, as follows 1
Q. What kind of shirt did you wear
during the war ?
A> Calico, sometimes, and sometimes
Woolen.
Q. You are married, arc you not ?
A. Yes, I am.
Q. Well state to the committee what
kind of under-clothing your wife wore
during the unholy strife.
A. I was not at home much of the time
and can’t say.
Q. What color was it ?
A. I don’t know.
Q. Wasn’t it gray ?
A. I never took notice.
Q. Don’t you know that the ladies of
the South formed a secret cabal lor wear
ing of grey petticoats during the war?
A. I do not.
Q. Dont you think they wore more
gray than blue in the article of clothing
to which we refer?
A. I do not know. Never investigated
that subject.
Q. Is it true that the women of the
South wear Jeff. Davis’s picture iu their
bosoms ?
A. I never took notice. Should not
be surprised if some of them did.
Q. Do you think a Freedmen’s Bureau
agent would be allowed to marry into a
first family of Virginia ?
A. If a young lady belonging to a first
family were willing, l suppose he could.
Q. How long will it be before pumpkin
pies become a favorite dish in the lately
rebellious districts?
A. I do not kuow. Some people like
them now.
Q. Is there not a great aversion to cod
fish, as a Yankee staple diet?
A. I do not know that there is.
Q. Do they like pork and beans in Vir-|
ginia ?
A. Some people do.
Q. What’s your opinion of the Feni
ans ?
I have not given the subject much at
tention. - ‘
Q. How are you on Schleswig-Hol
stein ?
A. I have not made up mind on that
subject either.
Q. Which side do yon sleep on ?
A. The right side generally.
Q. Do Southern men generally con
tinue to sleep in arms, notwithstanding
the cessation of the rebellion ?
A. Those who are mairicd do, I be
lieve.
Q. Do those that are not married ab
stain from doing so ?
A. I can’t say that they all do.
There are other impoitant parts of
General Lee’s testimony not yet publish
ed by the Committee on Reconstruction.
I trust I have given enough to show,
when contrasted with what has been
given to the public, that the most signifi
cant portions of the examination—those
bearing most direcly on the great problem
of Reconstruction—are wittingly sup
pressed
Important Decision.
The following case, which came off at
the April term of Sumter Superior Court,
before his Honor, Alx. M. Speer, will be
read with unusual interest. The points
decided are such as to affect thousands of
our citizens, and gives, on that account, a
prominence to this decision beyond that
which usually attaches to a decision of
the circuit Courts. We understand that
the case will go up to the Supreme
Court ;

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCHES.
Message of Gov. Brownlow.
Nashville, April. 13.
The Legislature met to-day. The Sen
ate had no quorum ; the House had one,
and read the message of Governor Brown-
low.
Gov. BrownloW issued a message to-day,
which touches upon the topics following
the late election. He says:
“ Two elections hare occurred since
your deliberations were broken up by a por
tion cf the House; the one a general elec
tion for county officers, on the 3d of
March ; the other, a special election of
twenty-four Representatives and two Sen
ators, in different parts of the State. He
continues : While it is true that in many
counties of West Tennessee every credi
ble, and, in some instances successful ef
fort was made to execute the act of the 5th
of June last, in some counties of that sec
tion, and in tho greater portion of Mid
dle Tennessee, the law was totally disre
garded.
In the county of Davidson, for instance,
where there has been so much clamor
against the law charging that three of the
people were disfranchished by it, yet the
aggregate vote exceeded, by over a thou
sand, the average vote in the county elec
tions. Before the passage of the law the
candidates, in many localities, openly and
publicly based their claims to election
upon wounds and losses incurred in the
cause of the rebellion, and were often suc
cessful.
In the special election nearly all of those
who had, by revolutionary conduct, bro
ken up the Legislature, and paralized tho
Government, were candidates for re-elec
tion, under pledges to repeal their perform
ances, unless the majority will yield to
them the control of your proceedings.
With two exceptions in West Tennes
see, one in Middle Tennessee and two
in East Tennessee, they have been re
turned by large majorities. . This result
may well excite the apprehensions of the
friends of civil government. It shows
that not only the revolting represents*
tives, but their constituents, are ready to
destroy the State government. The fear
expressed iu my proclamation of the 3rd
of March, that our people have not suf
ficiently recovered from the demoralizing
effects of the late rebellion to appreciate
the blessings of peace, is thus painfully
realized. The objections to a stringent
suffrage law arc plausable, and made un
der a guise of equal rights and repub
lican liberty, but experience will show
that those who but a few months ago
were engaged in the work of destroying
all government, and who did destroy the
State government and only failed to de
stroy the national government by being
overpowered by force of arms, not yet
safe depositories of the elective franchise.
It is not a question as to who shall be
disfranchised but as to who shall be en
franchised. Those who committed trea
son disfranchised themselves. To restore
them at once to the right of suffrage is
simply to hand over them that govern
ment which was organized in spite of
them upon the ruins of the one they had
destroyed. This is what they now de
mand. The red handed marauder who
has inflicted the most frightful wounds
upon the body politic, demand that he of
all others is the proper physician to heal
them. They claim the right to destroy
and build up, to kill and to restore to life.
You alone gentleman can dispose of this
question. In a crisis like this we should
choose no timid course. Let us boldly
perform our part and leave the result to
God. I invoke jour prompt attention to
this vital subject. We can have no hope
that capital or loyal immigrants will come
within our borders until they are assured
of protection against rebel rule.
I am assured that the tide of immigra^
tion now flowing into Missouri is owing
to the ample protection given in that State
by the disfranchisement of the destroyers
of law and order.
I have been compelled, by a sense of
humanity, to uirect the comptroller to is
sue his warrant upon the treasury for a
considerable sum, without any act of ap
propriation, to supply the convicts of the
penitentiary with the necessaries of life.
I am informed they are again in danger
of suffering.
tween the disloyal and loyal. Their lands
and houses were occupied, their property
impressed or destroyed and their provis
ions consumed. In East Tennessee this
was done from necessity, by an unsup
plied army, to an extent that reduced the
people to absolute suffering.
So far the Federal Government, class
ing Tennessee with the Rebel States, and
Unwilling to assume the losses incurred
in the whole South, have not regared the
applications of our loyal people for re
muneration. I understand that simi
lar losses bj citizens of Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana have been promptly
assumed, and yet the nation knows and
the world knows that a more loyal peo
ple than those in Tennessee, who remain
ed steadfast to the National cause through
out so long and terrible an ordeal, is not
to be found in the Union ; but I can not
and will not loose confidence in the jus
tice and magnanimity of the American
people. I believe they will yet repay the
loyal sufferers among our people, many
of whom were deprived of their property
by the National forces while they were
absent and fighting and bleeding for the
National cause. But you,gentlemen, can
afford present relief, relying upon the
general Government hereafter to assume
and pay thoseyast and meritorious claims.
I recommend that proper officers be ap
pointed to ascertain and audit these
claims, and the bonds of the State of de
nominations from fifty to one thousand
dollars be issued in payment, I am
aware that the proposition will meet with
fierce opposition from those who would
give preference to the millions of debts
contracted by the usurped State govern
ments, or by rebel quartermasters. I am
also aware that objections will come from
a better class, upon the grounds of so con
siderable an increase of the State debt.—
But the American people are just; they
will assume the amount long before it
falls due, and upon principle treat the
suffering loyalists of Tennessee as they
have treated the loyalists of other States.
In view of the protracted length of your
session, caused in part by the difficulties
attending a reorganization of the State
government, but mostly by the refractory
and rebellious conduct of a minority, you
will pardon me for expressing the hope
that you will proceed promptly and vig
orously with the necessary legislation,
not only as a matter of eeonomy to the
prosperity, bui to give quiet and repose,
to the people,'by the final and permanent
establishment of a State policy which
shall give security to the loyal and re
strain the disloyal Wm. G. Brownlcw.
Ordinance of Secession.—The fol
lowing is an official copy of the Texas
ordinance declaring the ordinance of seces
sion null and void:
Be it ordained by the people of Texas,
in convention. That we acknowledge the
supremacy of the Constitution of the Uni
ted States and the laws passed in pursu
ance thereof, and that an ordinance adop
ted by a former convention, on the 1st of
February, 1861, entitled “An ordinance
to dissolve the union between the State of
Texas and the other States united under
the compact styled the Constitution of the
United States,” be and the same is hereby
declared null and void, and that the right
heretofore claimed by the State of Texas
to secede from the Union is hereby dis
tinctly renounced.
“This is a small State,” says a letter
from Rhode Island, “and it is owned by
a few wealthy manufacturers residing in
Providence, and whoever they say shall
be Governor, will be. The moneyed
class in the Legislature some time ago
passed a law requiring every person not
owning real estate to pay a registry tax of
one dollar before voting. These facts
present the machinery by which “a few
wealthy manufacturers” are enabled to
“own” the State. Each party,” the let
ter continues, “takes upon itself to pay
the tax in the case of its own voters,”
and the manufacturers’ party having the
majority of the people in their employ
and under their control, pay the tar and

The Veto—Its Origin and Destiny.
The veto power had its origin in Rome,
3507 Anno Muudi, aud before Christ
407, or 2363 years ago. Tho levies and
laws of the Roman Senate were so oppres
sive that the people, after submitting to
actual encroachments 225 years, by a com
mon impulse, it is said, retired toa moun
tain a short distance from Rome, called
“ Monsaeer, where they were addressed
by Junius Lucius and Licinus Bcllcrus,
that they compelled the Senate to yield
the power to them to establish five tri
bunes among themselves, which, in pro
cess of time were increased to ten who
should be clothed with the veto powqr.
These tribunes were placed at the Senate
door, and all laws passed by the Roman
Senate were presented to them for ap
proval or rejection. If they approved a
law, it was signed with the letter “ T,”
but if not approved, they used the word
“ veto,” which signifies “ I forbid.”—
Such is the origin of the veto power, and
so long as it was exercised in its original
purity and simplicity, it tended to the
advancement of the peoples’ rights and
interests.
The history of the “ veto power ” in
this country is not without interest.—
George Washington exercised the veto
twice, once that the public welfare requir
ed the defeat of a bill, and once on ac
count of the unconstitutionality of a bill.
Thomas Jefferson never exercised the
veto power, but took decided ground in
its favor in a letter to James Madison
(Dec. 20th, 1787.) His successor, James
Madison, exercised the veto six times
during his eight years service. Presi
dent Monroe, whose administration was
characterized as “ the era of good feel
ings,” found it necessary to exercise the
veto power but once. John Quincy
Adams, tbs most unpopular of Presidents,
did not exercise the veto powe% at all;
while Andrew Jackson, his successor ex
ercised it most unsparingly. Nine times
did he hurl the veto power, with the
force of a thunderbolt, at the darling ob
jects of his enemies, and each time did
the people resound “ well done.” Van
Buren never exercised the veto at all.—
Harrison died in one month. Tyler suc
ceeded, and exercised the veto four time3.
These vetoes shattered to pieces the great
political party which elected him so over
whelmingly, and tended not a little to the
re-establishment of the party which elec
ted Polk, who exercised the veto three
times. Both Pierce and Buchanan exer
cised it seldom, and then only on bills of
no special importance.
Since the organization of the Govern
ment, over twelve thousand bills have re
ceived the approval of the Executive, and
only about twenty-five times has “ the
veto ” been exercised—from which it
would appear that this great power has
been quite sparingly used, and in all ex
cept two instances it has sealed the fate
of the measure on which it has been ex
ercised, and even these exceptional cases
were those of an unimportant character.
Congress has proposed various amend
ments to the Constitution, all looking to
dwarfing the powers of the Executive
and making the legislative department
supreme; but these hasty legislators have
doubtless forgotten that the Supreme
Court exercises “ the veto” every time
it declares a law unconstitutional!
President Johnson has already exercis
ed the veto twice, and the indications are
that he will continue to use the power as
long as the Radical majority in Congress
shall persist in passing measures affecting
the rights and interests of eleven States,
whose people are excluded from represen
tation by the Dominant party in the Leg
islative Department of the Government.
Like old Hickory, our Andrew has the
nerve and will to hurl the thunderbolt of
“ the veto ” against every measure that
infringes the Constitution or impairs the
Union of the States of which it is the
encircling bond. If the President shall
continue as he has begun—if his popular
ity shall keep pace with his vetoes—he
will soon be the most popular statesman
in the world. His first veto followed by
his great speech, astonished and impress
ed the statesmen of the Old World, and
so far from criticising the alleged want of
dignity, as was anticipated by his enemies,
the editorials of European journals read
like the laudations of the President in
the better class of the American press
Whatever they may have thought ic
times past, every lover of constitutional
liberty now rejoices that we have a fear
less champion of the people's rights in the
White House, and that “ the veto ” still
remains with which to thwart the evil
machinations of those wicked “ disunion
ists ” who have so long prevented the
perfect restoration of the Union ! Thank
God lor Andrew Johnson and the “ veto.”
