All of you have one re- ; ply to everything written in defence of the Constitution and of the equal rights of the Southern States under that instru ment. You say “Mr. Hill ignores the re bellion and its consequences. He assumes that States which through four bloody years fought to destroy the Government, ; have a right to assume their old position ; ! in the Union.” * * “The peo- : pie who conquered the rebellion and j brought back these refractory States J against their will, entertain a different opinion. They hold that the South for feited the rights which it insolently re linquished, and may not resume them ex cept upon certain well defined terms, which Congress, representing the loyal States, alone shall dictate.” This is the doctrine of conquest. It is reiterated in every iorm by all the Republican Presi lt was amplified by Rev. Henry Ward Beecher in a political speech in Brooklyn last night.

HENRY ORR. is the question, and I will meet it frauk- ly and squarely, and not, as *Mr. Beecher says, “by Taney decisions and construc tions before Courts of Southern Judges.” I will roly on Republican and Northern decisions only. I, First, then, I say the result of the war was not a conquest, but was simply a de vision that secession failed and the Union remained, because this result was the de clared object of the war, and the only ob ject of the war as declared at its begin ning, during its progress, and at its close. Now to the Republican authorities : 1. Mr. Lincoln. In his inaugural ad dress he said : “It follows, from these views, that no State, upon its own mere motion, can law fully get out of the Union ; that resolves and ordinances to that effect are legally void. * * * I therefore con sider that, in view of the Constitution and laws, the Union is unbroken, and, to the extent of my ability, I shall take care, as the Constitution itself expressly en joins upon me, that the laws of the Un ion shall be faithfully executed in all the States.” 2. Mr. Seward. [ have not his offi cial dispatch before me, but none can for get Mr. Seward’s celebrated instructions to Mr. Adams, Minister to England, that the scats of the Southern members were vacant, and they had the right to return to them. 3. Congress. In July, 1861, the Con gress of the United States, with almost entire unanimity resolved : “That this war is not waged, on our part, in any spirit of oppression nor for any purpose of conquest or subjugation. * * but to defend and maintain the supremacy ot the Union, and to preserve the Union, with all the dignity, equality and right of the several States unimpaired ; and as soon as these objects are accomplished, the war ought to cease.” Ten days after ward this resolution in other words was repeated, and in the Senate with but one dissenting voice. Similar declarations were repeated throughout the struggle by every department of the Government, and by the leaders, papers, States and people of the North. Did the President, the Cabinet, the Congress, and the people all tell deliberate falsehoods ? If they told the truth, can there beany possible doubt as to the object of the war, and that that object was not conquest—not to dictate other terms on which the Southern States should “resume” their functions in a Un ion never broken ? "Was anything then heard about going outside of the Constitu tion ? II. In the second place, I affirm that the result of the war was not a conquest be cause it could not be a conquest, and has been so expressly adjudicated. Here are the words of Judge Sprague, ot Massa chusetts—not South Carolina : “It has been supposed that if the Gov ernment has the rights of a belligerent, then, after the rebellion is suppressed, it will have the rights of conquest; that a State and its inhabitants may be perma nently divested of all political privileges and treated as a foreign territory acquir ed by arms.” This is exactly what the Reconstruc tion measures do. But what does Judge Are these promises redeemed? Is the South ill tempered and still rebellions for asking their redemption ? Are they on ly loyal and true and entitled to credit who refuse their redemption ? Will the Northern people, at the ballot-box. forget these solemn pledges of their Republican President, the grave enactments of their Republican Congresses, the learned de cisions of their own Courts, and be guid ed only by the oracular fulminations on constitutional law by a novel-reading preacher from the political hustings to a laughing audience ? Shall the clerical gown be doffed, that an ecclesiastical stump-speaker may uncharitably asperse the judicial ermine of departed purity and living wisdom amid the cries of a gid dy people, “A Daniel come to judgment?” Why will not the Northern people wake up to the plain, simple fact that the war was waged on an honest difference of opin ion as to the right to secede, and that when the South surrendered the difference was decided, and the Union remained un dissolved ? This is the honest truth, and its simple recognition would remedy every evil and restore the Union in heart as well as fact. Where is (the propriety, or wisdom, or loyalty in perpetually saying that the Southern people made war on the Constitution, when every informed man who says so well knows the Southern people believed they had a right to secede, and were so taught by some of the very- ablest of the framers of the Constitution ? How was it making war on the Constitu tion to do or attempt what the very fram ers of that instrument taught was a right according to the Constitution, existing be fore it and not surrendered in it? Yet even preachers will persist in falsifying so plain a record. III. From Hie Charleston Courier. Ho Longer Dark. The waves of a sunset sky Were ebbing at eventide. And the misty gleams of the softened light Were fading ou every side. ’Twos dark where the Angel Death Was watching the household Pet; And a wild light sprung from the child’s blue eye, As the seal of Death was set. “ Oh, mother ! 'tis dark—so dark j The valley is drear and lone; Let me clasp your baud while you lead me through, For you caunot leave your Own.” And the little hand was clasped— Was clasped with a look of woe, And a kiss was pressed ou the whitened lip; But the mother could not go. “ Dear father, the waves are dark ; The waters so coldly flow- ; You will bear me through to the “shining shore But the father could not go. She then returned to the city, bringing the first and only intelligence of what had occurred. Capt. Ford informs us that soon after tho ilesper was boarded several shots! I were fired, but whether by the crew or | the raiders he did not ascertain. Some j one ordered the firing to cease, and noth- : ing was heard. No one aboard the Hel per was injured or in any way mistreat- ! ed. In half an hour the task was accomplish ed, and the party quietly returned to the tug, leaving the Ilesper adrift and in the possession of ail her crew who remained, Capt. Houston and his brother having made for the woods as soon as the Nettie was seen bearing down upon their craft. The raiders once more aboard, Capt. Ford was required to turn his boat north ward and proceed until further orders.— At midnight she reached a point in Presi dent’s island chute, eight miles below the city Here, by order of the masked com mander, she was run aground.

Estex Cook, Author of “ Surrv of Eagles’ Nest.” Of “ Surry.” of which Mohun is a Sequel, _ ... Tux Thousand copies were almost immediately measures outside ot toe Constitution—en bprague say ■? “This is an error. * * Con quest of a foreign country gives absolute unlimited sovereign rights, but no nation ever makes such a conquest of its own But in the third place. From the day the Reconstruction measures passed, the South has sought a legal adjudication of their binding force, Congress has pre vented it. If the right of conquest is so clear, why not let the Supreme Court say so? Are the Northern people afraid of their own laws, afraid of their own pledges, and afraid of their own Courts ? Can no thing be trusted but negroes and a Radi cal Congress, and they only because they are willing to monopolize the business of legislating outside of the Constitution un der oaths to support it? Mr. Beecher has made a new discovery. He says there is quite a distinction in going outside the Constitution and going against it Ah ! And that, too, when the Constitution it self, to prevents this very heresy, plainly says that “all powers not delegated” are “expressly reserved.” Is not every pow er, then, outside of the Constitution re served to the States? And if in the States how can it be in Congress? We shall next have a new religion “outside of the Bible,” and people will be taught there is a new way to Heaven which is not so straight, and does not require truth ful representations of what “rebels” say. True, Christ said there was but “'one way,” but it can be easily shown by modern “brilliants” in logical pyrotechnics that Christ knew as little of the true meaning of the Bible as Story and Madison and Clay and Webster did of the Constitution. They can all be “reconstructed” by these unbounded “outside powers,” which they never saw. Will not Cougress permit the Supreme Court to decide between us in the light of this new discovery by the learned judicial parson ? This system of misrepresenting the temper and feelings and wishes of the South, must have au end. The issue will be then so plain that even a preacher will see it. The south stands on the Constitution, on the pledges of the North, on the deci sions of the Courts, and on the iminuta ble laws of God. The North stands outside of the Con stitution, outside of their own pledges, against the decisions of the Courts, and in blasphemous array against the peace of man and the laws of God. The people of the the nation must de cile which is right. I do not and will not believe they will decide for the latter by Gen. Grant’s election. If so, and Gen. Grant does not at once adopt Parson Beecher’s new theory, and support the Chicago platform by getting outside of it, we shall be but a nation of lunatics, throw ing away liberty, and rushing through anarchy to hug despotism. The Constitution may crumble; free dom may perish ; usutpation may hold high carnival in the nation’s capital, and send glittering bayone.s throughout the land to register its decrees in blood. But the South will hold fast to her honor. I have done. l'ours, very truly, B. H. HILL. From the Louisville Courier. Destruction of Arms on the Hesper. Full particulars of the affair. territory T. ” The Congressional Election Bill Not Sign ed.—We are now prepared to answer the que- | ry of the Savannah News and other papers, Memphis, Oct. 17.—The destruction of arms on board the steamer Hesper still causes much excitement. The Democrat ic papers assert that they were destroyed by Radicals for the purpose of making political capital; that Capt Houston of the Hesper loaded his boat at Harkleroad’s for that purpose ; also that the arms were not the property of the State of Arkan sas. The Republican papers on the other hand assert that they were destroycdby the Ku-Klux. The following particulars of the seizure were obtained iu substance from Capt. Jno. Ford of the impressed tug Nettie Jones : About 5 o’clock, Thursday af ternoon, the tug Nettie Jones, Capt. Jno. Ford, left the wharf for Fort Pickering, having a barge in tow, intending to re turn with lumber. The tug reached its destination and landed at about half-past 5 o’clock. No one was in sight, hut the line had scracely been made fast before the spot was covered with men, ail so se curely masked as to be unrecognizable — They were probably a hundred in num ber, and had evidently been concealed some time under the bluff. Without speaking a word, they quietly boarded the tug; took possession of the pilot house and engine room, ordered Capt. Ford to immediately start down the river, adding, by way of incentive to prompt ness, that somebody might be hurt in case of refusal. Accordingly be ordered ODe of the crew to cast off the line, and in a few minutes the tug was rapidly steaming for President’s island chute. U pon taking possession, the new commander kept a vigilant eye on the crew, not allowing any of them to leave his post for even a mo ment. The engineer was nut allowed to oil his machinery. The mysterious pas sengers evidently feared he might sud denly put it out of repair The head of the tug was held steadily down the river until approaching Cat island, twenty-five miles below, near the Arkansas shore.— This was between 71 and 8 o’clock, and Capt. Ford was ordered to run his tug alongside the little steamer Hesper, which was tied up, wooding. During the trip the leaders informed Ford that they in tended overhauling the Hesper, destroy ing the arms, but that strict orders had been issued to the men to harm no one and respect all other property. In obedience to orders, Capt. Ford run the tug alongside* This was no sooner accomplished than, leaving two of their number in the pilot house, two in the en gine room, and one in the cabin as a guard—the latter over one of the crew who had insulted the leader. The masked party suddenly sprung aboard the Hesper. Little or nothing was said, and the boarders, who evident ly had an eye to business, placed the crew under surveillance and commenced the work in hand. The gun boxes were Twenty Years of Vice. NY bat then ? “When the United States take posses sion of a rebel district they merely vindi cate their pre*existing title. * * * Under our Government the right of sov ereignty over any portion of a State is given and limited by the Constitution, and will be same after the war as it was before.” AY here now is the authority for new terms of Union ? W ill even a preacher doubt, or deny, or rebel against such au thority ? It could be multiplied almost indefinitely.

Governor Bullock received it on the I 3d inst., and up to Thursday, the 22d, it had not gotten his signature. The bill is therefore not a law, and cannot become such without three more readings in each branch of the Gen eral Assembly, on three separate days, when that body re-assembles in January next.

Many yeais ago a celebrated Italian aitist was walking along the streets of his native city, perplexed and despond ing in consequence of some irritating cir cumstance of misfortune, when he met a little boy of such surprising beauty that he forgot his own trouble and gloom in looking upon the almost angelic face be fore him. “That face I must have,” said the ar tist, “for my studio. Will you coine to my room and sit for a picture my little *)yy man i The little boy was glad to go and see the pictures and pencils and curious things in the artist’s room, and he was still more pleased when he saw what seemed to be another boy looking just like himself, smiling from the artist’s can vass. The artist took a great deal of pleasure in looking at the sweet, innocent face.— When he was troubled, or irritated, or perplexed, he lifted bis eyes to that love ly image on the wall, and its beautiful, hopeful features and expression calmed his heart and male him happy again.— Many a visitor to this studio wished to purchase that lovely face; but though poor, and often in want of money to buy food and clothes, he would not sell his good angel, as lie called this portrait. So years went on. Oftimes as he look ed up to the face on the glowing canvass he wondered what had become of that boy. “How I should like to see how he looks now ! I wonder if I should know him ? Is he a good man and true, or wicked and abandoned ? Or has he died and gone to a better world ?” One day the artist was strolling down one of the fine walks of the city when he be held a young whose face and mien were ' so vicious, so depraved, so almost fiend like, that he involuntarily stopped and gazed at him. “What a spectacle ! I should like to paint that figure and hang it in my studio opposite the angel boy,” said the artist to himself. The young man asked the painter for money; for he was a beggar as well as a thief. “Come to my room and let me paint your portrait, and I will give you all you ask,” said the artist. The young man followed the painter and sat for a sketch. When it was fin ished, and he had received a few coins for his trouble, he turned to go, but his eye rested upon tho picture of the boy ; he looked at it, turned pale, and then burt into tears. “What Doubles you, artist. It was long before coulri speak ; he sobbed ed pierced with agony, ed up to the picture on the wall, and in broken tones, which seemed to come from a broken heart, said : “Twenty years ago you asked me to come up here and sit for a picture, and that angfl lace is the portrait. Behold me now a ruined man, so bloated, so hid eous, that women and children turn away their faces from me; so fiend-like that you wanted my picture to show how ug ly a man could look. Ah . I see now what crime and vice have done for me.’ The artist was amazed. He could scarce ly believe hi> own eyes and ears “How did this happen ?” he asked. The young man then told him his sad and dreadful history ; how being an only son aud very bcautiiul, his parents petted aod spoiled him, how he went forth among bad boys and learned all their bad habits and came to love them ; how, hav ing plenty of money, he was enticed into wicked places until all was lost, and then, unable to work, and ashamed to beg, he man ?” said the the voung man aloud and seein- At last he noint- broken"open with axes aod hatchets, the i began to steal; was caught and imprison- guns taken out, and thrown into the river;! ed with the worst criminals, came ou many were broken before being consign- j st *^ morc depraved, to commit wor>e of ed to the element.
