Kotes on the Situation—So. 4.
BY B. H. HILL.
Having shown wh >t every f ir mir.d admit 0 ,
and what cv-ry ltfgal mind mu°t conclude, that
th‘*se railitary measure are subversive of the
Gonstitutioo and fatal to the life of all Ameri
ca;. principles of government, let us now pro
ceed to examine the reasons urged to justify
or induce their acceptance by our people.—
After careful consideration I find that all the
reasorfS which I hayc heard or read are inelu-
we refuse'to accept this plan of
reconstruction, a worse one will be provide i.
An appeal ro our fears, and therefore a strong
or raiher dangerous position.
0. That if we reject this plan Congress will
become more offended; ai d will confiscate our j
property, and take the substance we have left.
This is an appeal to our avarice—a very do.n- ,
inant passion of hnm.au nature.
4. That we of the South are a conquered
people, and are bound to accept the terras of
•the conqueror, and that these bills are the j
terms of the conqueror.
o. That tlie negro, being now free and made ,
a citizen, is entitled, both for his own protec
tion, and in accordance with the principles of,
popular government, to political as well as
and tjifi negrq, when prompter! and direcud
by these emissaries and renegades? Are we
not warned ? Read the resolutions of negro
conveniens, and whenever you find one of
these conventions in which these emissaries
ami remg.i its are the devilish prompters, you
will find confiscat'h :: threaten: ', or apologised
for, or justified cp-demanded. And these are
the very :n . who are to form, organize, con
trol and a dminister, and enjoythc offices un

Military bills. And when we admit the power

lie would soon know bis true friends, in his

white man is an enemy to the peace and inter
est of both races, and vroujd be an admitted
monster in any age or country of barbarians.

gallant people under the cycles of the sun to
the most humiliating subjugation, and now
counsels, urges, threatens to compel dishonor
to a people who have nothing but honor left.
But I know there are many people who are
honest, and even intelligent'.on most subjects,
who commit grave political errors and mis
takes. It would be strange if they did not
when there are so many influences to deceive.
In popular governments, therefore, and more
especially now, since so much power is pro
posed to be given io so much ignorance, it is
necessary to answer tiic- knave in his argument
lest he make a fool of his hearer.
First, theu, it is said we are helpless and
cannot prevent the success of these Military
bills. Well, if this is true, why a:kour consent?
If success does not depend on consent, why
beg and coax and tin eased to secure consent?
If we must be disfranchised and have an “en-
my’s government” forged upon us, snare us
the gratui ous dishonor of consenting! If a
fiend with the power, should come to burn your
house, or rape your wife, or kill your family,
and should cooliy ask your .consent, saying
you had better cons at, for if you did not, he j. gross is wronged, and every agent or officer of
would burn, or rape, or kill anyhow, and per- ! the Congress or other person who enforces the
haps, being incensed by
the storm.
“ One of the banished crew,
I fear, hath ventured from the deep to raise
New troubles.”
NUMBER 5.
It is said, in the next place, that if we do
not accept the present plan of reconstruction
; proposed in these Military bills, another plan,
more odious and oppressive, will be provided.
Further disfranchisement, It i3 said, of the
white race will take j.Iu-e, and it may be a
total cisfranciUsement of all but the blacks j
and t heir fellow? m sufferings and former boo- i
dag'-—the persecuted loyalists; and who alone j
will then have the government of the State. j
But if the present plan fails because it is ,
unconstitutional, how can a wo.rse plan—a !
plan still more unconstitutional—succeed? If
it is not in the power of Congress to disfran
chise a few, how an it disfranchise all? .Con
gress can neither make nor unmake electors,
and every member of the Congress knows it.
And every act which seeks or pretends to
make or unmake voters in a State is void and
will be declared soand every election held,
or constitution formed, or government organ
ized by voters who are made voters only by
Congress, is void and will be declared sc.—
Every man who is made a voter by the laws
cf his Suite, and is denied that vote by Con-
things. But I scorn to pursue such
argument.
A people who are willing to sacrifice honor
to avarice are beyond tbe possibility of re
demption. If the very statement of the pro
position does net awaken a feeling of abhor
rence we are indeed in a sad condition. If
anything can be baser tiian degradation it i3
such a motive for sinking to it. Lost property
nmy be recovered; burned cities may be re
built; devastated fields will bloom again: even
Lori. J children; fallen for their country, will
live again in the quickened spirits of new gen
erations. Rut as with individuals so with
peoples and communities—the sense of honor
once lost is lost forever. Yea, more; ihe his
tory of human nature, singly and in commu
nities, te.idies, without exception of example,
that when relf-respect is once lost, self-abase
ment once accepted, cities, lands, liberty,
country cannot be retained.
It is natural, too, that all others should lose
respect for those who lose respect for them
selves. If we accept the humiliation proposed
for iis. all mankind veil be alhamed for us,
our children will bo ashamed for us, and our
very enemies, whose hatred prompted the
shame, will mock and deride us. Even now I
believe the impression which a few have beeW
industrious to produce, that our people are
willing to reconstruct under these act?, has
damaged us more i? the estimation of all hon
orable minds than anything else that has uap-
seiit haunts, and intelligence, like a blazing
meteor, fling a glory over the world. There
fore all v. me to express my approbation of
tin- effort of any one who contributes Ids mite,
.and especially to the labors of the indefatigable
ami efficient teacher at Einofy Academy, R. E.
1'ittiiiau and his worthy and competent coad
jutor, Mr. Alexander. These gentlemen richly
merit the almost unprecedented patronage they
'have received this year, and T have no doubt
but that their attention to their duties, and
the rapid and substantial improvement in their
students will ■ ure for the future to then* the
same honors and ousel arc*:: id. They have a
flourishing school of eighty scholars, and ihe
examination of a more uniformly intelligent
and bright-minded bevy of students I have
never witnessed. Especially did the various
classes in the Latin language acquit themselves
handsomely, and among or between the stu
dents composing these Glasses any distinction
would be invidious, for where one excelled by
way of a more liberal gift from the Creator,
Luo ot another deserved more credit for having turned
a smaller gift to more account by dint of per
severance and hard study.
The classes in Arithmetic, Algebra, and es
pecially Geometry, were posted, and would
have been admitted without a murmur into
any of our colleges.
Hr. Pittman had upon the boards a champion
Spelling Class, a thing 1 have not witnessed
since those happy days when, light-footed and
joyful-hearted, 1 blithly brushed the clew from
the grass in the fields on my way to school.—
This class, consisting of, 1 believe, the whole
school, was rigidly examined by the Principal
himself, and then turned over to the critics
present for further dissection. When Dr.
Pearce, forgetting the leniency he so much de
sired in his school days, proceeded to pry still
more closely into their proficiency in this very
important and much neglected branch of educa
tion. But ail to no purpose—he could not
balk them much.

a memorial of the noble father, and of the
glorious array and people who avenged him.—
And the daughter’s name was Virginia.. The
virtue of all our daughters, and the pride of. 0 n
aii our sons are secure only in our sense of
honor as a people.
But are we helpless? If we eontemidate
resistance by arms, I concede that now we are
helpless. But-our strength is not in arras.—
Our strength is in the Constitution. If the
Cqnstit I'.ioa is stroeg we are “strong, and if
we are helpless the Constitution is helpless.—
I have shown if these military measures be
forced, upon us ihe Constitution is destroyed.
On its parapets alone let us mount our guns
and fire on. The most startling evidence

sonie. I fear many of our people, that tbe Con
stitution can do us no good. The very tfaouglit

After this the good people of the vicinage-
an ! patrons of the school spread out under the

and appeasing collation designed for the occa

of which they partook with a gusto that re-

after dinner cooled the air, and the exercises
wore resumed and progressed with until nearly
