Synopsis of the President’s Mes sage Vetoing the Sherman Military Bill- Tlie President save, hi effect that he lias examined tnc bill In pr.A i>lt* more i tllcimrl governnw f- in the rel> el States, with the can; which its transcendent importance awakens. — He is unable to assent to it. The rea* sons for his refusal are so grtfve, that he hopes a statement of them will in fluence patriotic and enlightened men. The biii places ten States under mili tary rulers. He combats the preamble. His information shows that the people are united, and.have reorganized their governments on the basis of peace. —* The face of the bill shows its object not to be peace. After the States adopt measures' notorously objections* ble, representation will be allowed without reference to security of life or property. The preamble’s excuse for the bill, is admitted by the bill to be false. 3Jilitary rule is established, not for the prevention of crime, but for the enforcement of the adaption of odious laws. The measure, in its character and scope, has an object without precedent or authority. It is palpably in conflict with the Constitu tion, and destructive ot blood-bought I liberty. Ti e power given to a Briga- j dier General is that of an absolute )• monarch. llis will is law. He do* j termines the rights of person and pro- ’ porty, disposes of lands and goods ! within his district and makes his own j criminal code. Everything is crimi nal which he denominates crime.-—> Every person is guilty whom he con. detnns. He keeps no record, need 1 make no report, can break up courts, 1 asid make judges and jurors criminals. His military court is of his own ma- j king, of officers from among his sub* ordinates. Instead of mitigating harshness, the single rule in s tch courts would divide the responsibility, 1 making it more cruel end unjust.. — I Several provisions dictated by humani ty, and introduced into the Bilbto res train oflicers, are inoperative. Each officer may define cruelty according to his own temper. Gag, lash, ball and ■chain lie within his.choice. The military commander, under the •provisions of the bill, may condemn to death without tripl, thu# avoiding the Executive sanction. The authority given that officer amounts to absolute despotism, aggravated by Ihe power to delegate despotism to bis subordinates, the bill declaring that he slnil'l “pun ish or cause to be punished.” This power has been denied to Etigli:-li Kines for five hundred years. In all that time, people speaking the English language have borne no such servitude. It reduces the population of ten States, regardless of sex, color, or condition, and strangers within their limits, to abject, degrading slavery. It may be answered that officers arc just and humane. Doubtless they are equally go with other classes, but the history of the world is written in vain, if it fails to show the danger of unres trained authority. It, is, almost iu varibly. tyrannical when the ruler is a stranger appointed by an unfriendly power. It, was tried in Hungary and Poland, resulting in sufferings that aroused the sympathy of the world. — In Ireland, though tempered by the principles of English law, it legat in dignantly denounced cruelties. The French Convention, aiming deputies with similar powers, sent them to the departments, and massacres, murders and atrocities followed. An irresponsi, ble deputy never yields what the law does not extort. Have wo the power to establi.-h and carry such a measure into execution ? Certainly net, do riving authority from the Constitution or acknowledging its limitations.. The remainder of the message oon sists in elaborate constitutional argu* ments, embracing copious extracts. The Speaker ruled that two-thirds could suspend the rules, thus render ing fillibustcring out of the question. The bill then passed by a vote of 135 yens to 47 nays.— Exchange. Ohio Too! —On the 2Cth n’t. a resolution introduced into the House of Representatives of the Ohio Legis lature, proposing to amend tiie State Constitution so as to strike out the word ‘‘white" (and allow the negroes to vote) was defeated by a vote of lit* yeas to 50 nays ! And yet the llcpres resentatives from that State in Con. gress voted almost in a body to give the right of suffrage to negtoes in other States than their own They are de termined'that they shall vote in the . South, but not in Ohio. IVe believe, too, that the laws of Hidfaim (another furious radical State) prohibit negroes from even going there from other States to live. One reason for this inconsis tency is, that the Southern radicals are so clamorous for negro votes to give them offiees in fho Southern States. The salvation of the country depends on their having the offices ! The Iron Bar. —Here is a good lesson from an iron bar. We find it in another paper. Read it, boys. “A bar of iron worth five dollars,* worked into horseshoes, is worth ten and a half; made into needless, it is worth 8355; made into penknife blades, it is worth $3,235 ; made into balance springs of watches, it is worth 8250,- 000. What a drilling the 'poor bar must undergo to reach all that; but ham mered and beaten and poutlded and rolled and polished, how was its value increased. It might well have quiver ed and eomplaincd under the hard knocks it got; but Were they not all Weessary to draw out its fine qualities, #nd fit it for higher offices ! And so, my children, all the drilling and training which yon are subject to in youth, and which often seem so hard to you, serve to bripg out your nobler and finer qualities, and fit yeu for more responsible postsand greater usefulness in the world,” (! : nin))t'isf "’■ill If W ~-r*- * (SEMI-WEEKLY.) ~— &?■ —~ JEb -- , L.

In publishing in our last issue the Preamble and Resolutions ol the meet ing, held in Thomasville, on Saturday, wfe also published the -dissenting reasons, offered by Col- S. Foucbe, as a substitute, hut which was rejected. By oversight this substitute was pub lished in rur last issue without head or explanation, following immediati ly after the Resolutions adopted by the meeting. Those who read the entire article on the subject of the meeting, will understand now, how the later part so entirely differs from the first part. The latter part of the article is Col. S. Fouche’s substitute,.which the meeting rejected. We regret that the mistake occurred, but it cannot now he remedied. We gave no attention whatever to the proceedings, suppos ing the Chairman and Secretary would add all that was necessary. The Atlanta Meeting. iTDVKRNOR BUOWN’s R ESOiC'fION? VOTED DOWN. Atlanta, March 4.—A large public meeting was held here to,day, pursu- 1 ant to notice to take into consideration I the condition of the country. Renolm tiogs approving tlie terms of Slier- ! man’s Military bill, and the course re- ' eommended by Gov. Brown, were brotight forward and rejected by the | meeting, The meeting then divided, arid the minority announced that they would hold a meeting to-niglrt. The majority then reorganized ami j passed resolutions counselling quiet I submission, characterizing the bill as j ; harsh and unjust, and approving the noble corpsjp of .President JohritiCHi.— They declare that the Sontbcru peo ple Should not barter away their honor and manhood by accepting the terms ■of the bill, and recommend that tlie Southern Governors fake ,<*rpsto test the constitutionality of the measure.

[FOP. TIHS ENTRRPBISE ] NECESSITY FOR IMPORTING LABORERS. Mb. Editor :—The letter of Mr. G. W. Gurmany, of Savanuah, disela -1 ses a movement that tlie people of Georgia and the citizens of all the Southern States should encourage, be cause short experience and long ac* quaintance wi h the negro ami his character, has convinced us that, as a laborer, he is not as reliable as tlie white man. The doctrine lots been advanced by the wisest statesmen ot the country, as a political mo£e, that the negro was better adapted as a la borer to the Southern climate than the white man, on account of bis oonstuu* tii n. I grant, that physically he is capable cf enduring more, especially upon the Kite plantations, and all farms bordering upon the seaboard, because he possesses a thick* bluet spongy skin, that will resist tlie heat, and great muscular power besides, and a temperament that is not so subject to bilious diseases. But notwithstand ing these advantages over his white competitors, he is indolent and lack ing in energy—the race being gener ally ol a slothjul disposition. Obser vation has taught ns that the mulat toes are generally the most active, in telligent and energetic among them, and that they make the best qjpehun- ! ics and most industrious men—-ijiat is en account of tin: white blood tluq flows through their veins, having in herited, tj some extent, the nerve ol ; a superior race. It is exceptionji of this kind, to wli eh the*'Radical* al lode, in speaking of the rapid advance ment they have made in knowledge I and trade. We grant ami know*ti nt the negroes in America are superior to any others of the same racism the world, and that tlw-y bare yiade emu- * paratively rapid advancement in chris* 1 tianity and understanding, since they have been imported fniawAfrica -and bff light in cantatft with civilization, but they are not equal to the white ma*, in energy and industry, and never will he, if wo snusl jin.Tge the future by the past, because liistory shows that the tvh«e rums arc -the most persevering* and'fnuWgentJ that the world has ever produced, and that they lmvo governed the earth Jimuthu time it has been inhabited. NnttTtth'- Htffndhig the nogi* Is physically strong, or, and capaWe of emluiitig mot* in the South, in certain localities, than the white mam on (recount of his indo lence,. the hitter possessing more en ergy, will surpass him iu accomplish, ing the same amount of labor in the same time. What advantage then has adaptation and power, if it is not properly directed '( Siwee the libera■ tion of tlio negro he cannot lie emi* trolled, aipl indolence needs something else besides precepts anil example, to ■ stimulate it to action. ; Another reason why ibis move should j he encouraged is, u want of move hn i borers to develope the resources of the South. Many of the largest and best plantations are rapidly going to waste, itir the want of vulture, and the in quit'/ naturally arises, what Inis t>>< come oj the laborers w!iq formerly cn]-* tivht.i and tlvcse‘!’iri»s '( Many hi thegi were armed and rneofirnged to'pitla’go and destroy the plantations, and cut the tjinmts of their own twisters, dur ing the ; consi quontly, since the siirremior, on account of ilgur iniqni* lions eondflet, those who were pot kill ed, or did not. die from disease, It .ve been afraid or ashamed, ! cannot tell 1 which, perhaps both, to return to their | native land. Some have been colon- ! ized in* Florida, a huge number have i been shipped from |Jie eouytr,, sulne to Liberia, others to Cuba ami South America, aid among those that it- ! ma tied at home, in,'my ol’ them path creiLin and around the principle cities and towns of .tlie*H,m/ii, whoro, not a i few died from disease and pestilence, | and the remainder prefer it scums, to reside at those places, half starved, in idleness, rather than cultivate the ; farina of their former masters. It is j thus tho South has boen deprived of j her laborers, and lienee the necessity j for the Importation of others, to till up tlie vacuum. •Another reason why this move should Ijo encouraged is, the* negroes of the South, ns a general thing, like tlie Ca- , munches and other tribes among the ] aborigines of the West, look upon 1 1 1 v . white man as their natural ciiunu/, and but for their slavish fears, like the ('tiniiini'hes. they would soon be extol'' minuted. The truth is mighty, ills said, and will prevail, and we migHt #s weil publish it, as to attempt to conceal it. The Radicals in process of time will be compelled to admit, this * truth, though the doctrines of their party at present, trios vs their eyes against it. Two races then, so ante- : gonistie in feeling, cnhtiet dwll to gether in peace and harmony, under any government, unless one will re main in subjection to the other. Th*s negro while lie wnfl a slave greatly, ami made rapid strides in eie ili/.at oft, but since his liberation, the , race is rapidly passing irwtiv, notwith standing the Radicals by their legis lation, are seeking to protect ami ele vate Vun upon terms of equality, when ho is not. capable of sueh equal.ty.with the more advanced races The pro tection which they off't a will result in his overthrow and degradation, which time will prove; but the Ra Reals will never admit it—they will not believe, the truth, however plain it may be ! written upon passiifg events. \\ edo not object to elevating the negro. We regret that he ij not mere into ligCut and industrious, for these traits mu-t be engrafted into Iris character, before he can be benefitted by the teims pro posed, or before be it ill be a reliable free laborer upon Southern farms. Another reason still, is this:—So long us the agriculturists of the South continue to employ negroes to work their farms, instead of importing whites ‘ from the North and Euro;e, the Radi. | cals, on account of tlieir gnat love, for the race, will'insist upon the right to | proteat them in person and proparty, sand t« do that, military rule must con tinue, every County must have its Agent, and the rebels will be greatly annoyed by those Aa r vn ‘s, who must | make a slmiv of authority, by inter. | | I’eringV'itli the contracts hat wen the® | ami tie lojar blach*. It ou may cheat, s win die,' and maltreat the vflwte laboi rera as much as you please, and they will never Inteifere ; but beware lu w you plaop,your hands upon the blacks, ttioy are precious in <be oyes of the masters of the world, and must not be touched. The N rth owes her great, ness, as an agricultural people, to the importation of labor from Europe The South can profit by her example and imp rt laborers, both from Europe anil the North, and it only remains to be seen, whether her people will make themselves independent of all other :sc<fliiH*s, by applyi 'g the means 'ne cessary to accomplish that result.
