Mv Mr. Koutweli —Do you mean to be
understood in your last answer that
there is no constitutional power in the
Government, as at present organized,
to exact conditions precedent to the
restoration to political power of the
eleven States that have been in rebell
ion
A —That is my opinion.
Q —Do vou entertain the same opin
ion in reference to the amendment to

A —ld 1 think the States, how
ever abolished slavery in good faith,

of their places members of the
lnion.
Q —What, in your opinion, is the
legal value of the laws passed by Con
cress. and approved by the President,
i! the absence of Senators and repre
-ontatives from the eleven States?
A—l do not know what particular
laws von refer to. but my answer gen
erally is, that the validity of all laws
depends upon their constitutionality.
This is a question tor the Judiciary to
determine Mv own -judgment, what
ever it might be. would have to con-
G-v to the judicial determination of

ed in the question.
Q —Assume that Congres- shall in
thi- session, in the absence of Sena
tors and Representatives from the elev
en States. pass an act levying taxes
u: on all the people ot the United
Mates, including the eleven, is it your
omnion that such an act would be con
stitutional ?
A —l -hould doubt if it would be.
It would certain Iv. in my opinion, be
manifestly uniust and against ail ideas
of American representative Govern
ment. Its Constitutionality, however,
would be a question for the judiciarv
to decide, and I should be willing
to abide by that decision, whatever it
micht be.
Cj —ls the eleven State* have at
pre-ent an immediate constitutional
rijht to he represented in Congress
on a footing with the States at present
epresented. has that been a continu
ous right from the formation of the
Government, or from the me of the
admission of the new mates respect
ively. or has it to interrupted by
war ?
A —i think, as the Congress of the
United States did not consent to the
withdrawal of the acceding States it
was a continuous right under the Con
stitution. of the United States to be
exercised so soon as the seceding |
States respectively made known their |
readiness to resume their former polit- j
ical relation- with the Federal Govern- i
ment under the Constitution ot the 1
United States. As the ifeneral Gov
ernment denied the right of secession.
I do not think any of the Stat.s at
tempting to exeieise it thereby lost
anv of their rights under the Consti
tution. as States, when their people
abandoned that attempt.
—ls it or not. your opinion that
the legislatures and people of the
eleven States resneeitvely have at pres
ent such a right to elect Senators and
Representatives to Congress, that it ‘
may be exercised without regard to
the part which persons elected may 1
have had in the rebellion ?
A.—l do not think they could exer
cise that right in the choice of their
Senators and members, so as to impair
in the slightest degree the constitution- !
al right of each House for itself to
judge of the oualifications of those
who might be chosen. The right of J
the constitutional election of a State
to choose, and the right of each House ‘
of Congress to judge of the qualifica
tions of those elected to the respective
bodies, are verv distinct and different
ouestion i, and in thus judging of qual
ifications, I am free to admit that m
my opinion no one should he admitted
as a member of either House of Con
gress who is not really and trulv loyal
to the Constitution of the United
States and to the government estab
lished by it.

WAR. PESTILENCE AND FA
MINE
When nations depart from the path of
i rectitude and shut cut the light of reason,
war. pestilence and famine, are the mevi-
I table consequence. The evil passions of
men produce war. When a nation is in
i volved in war. especially against itself.
| men’s minds are confused or unseitled. and
they are either madly and blindly rushing
totbe field of battle, or irresolute and ready
to abandon the pursuits of industry and
thrift. Here famine begins, and increases
her force in proportion to the madness and
folly of the belligerents. What the sword 1
i fails to destroy, famine holds her carnival
i over, until, exhausted by tue conflict, men
i return to partial reason, and looking now
with regret and deep sorrow over thewasted
fields, the sacked cities and desolate homes, .
1 behold the magnitude of their tin. Sin can
i never go unpunished. And following ciose
! upon the heels of war and famine, comes
pestilence, direct from the Almighty hand
of Him who judgeth nations as one man.
! tj sweep with the besom of destruction, all
who have imbued their hands in innocent
blood, or set at defiance His just and holy
i commands. The Bible is replete with the
histories of the punishment of nations for t
i their wickedness, and shall we who read
j and profess to beiieve the Bible, shut our |
i eves to the fact, that God is the same “yes
! terday, to-day, henceforth and forever !”
If He punished nation* in ancient times,
will He not do it in modern times? Yea.
“the wicked shall be east into hell and all
i the nation* that forget God.” Had not the
people of the United States forgotten Him ?
Says one. we had ministers and churches,
| and sermons, and thanksgiving proclama
i tions. and long prayers, and short prayers.
private prayers and public prayers, all
! through our war, world without end. Yes,
we had all these and more. And yet, we ,
had wickedly forgotten to be Christians. ,
We had forgotten to love our neighbor as
onrself, —to bear with and forgive our bre
thren’s faults, to do to others as we would
that they should do unto us—and to leave
i vengeance to Him who saith “ it is mine.”
I In our reliftious zeal, we had forgotten all
i these. The sin has been committed and
j peace has been restored, but. shall the
! guilty go unpunished ? War has ceased,
and hungry famine, as a general thing, .
; staved off; but. how is it with that relent- I
less monster, pestilence, who makes no com- \
■ promise, hears no plea, but armed with a
i mighty power, and clothed in the habili- |
ments of death, prowls about our cities and
! harbors, howling, gaunt and impatient, to
; begin the work of terror, destruction and
i death, that shall make the blood and car
nage of war seem as nothing compared to
its relentless fury.
Already we hear the first warnings of
i Cholera along the Northern coast, and soon
it will be in the South. The weather is
1 favorable, being unusually warm at this
i season. If the Cholera has commenced so
.1 soon to afflict the nation, what work may it
not accomplish before the frost returns to
diive it away? Did it come of itself, or
was it sent by llim who saith, “I will ‘
repay”? Alas! the nation has sinned ami
atonement must needs be made. But there I
still is hope even of a tree if it be cut down— ‘
for the same Almighty mind hath said. ;
“ Call upon me in thy troubles and 1 will
I hear thee.”
FOR THF, ENTERPRISE.
LOOK ALOFT!
Has sorrow shaded the happiness of thy
youthful years, as the dark clouds of the
morning obscure the rays of the shining
sun ?—and have those days, even darkened
as they were, passed swiftly by. and left a
longing wish in the heart that they might
come again ? Does time wit h his cold wing
chill thy heart, as he bears thee along life’s
beaten track, as full of shattered hopes and
broken vows ? Then child of misfortune,
come hither, and let us point thee to a star
on high, that will ever guide thee into the
pleasant paths of peace and rest.
Hast thou learned to sav, friendship thou
art but a name, and love thou hast flown
from the earth ? Did each mute cord of
thy being vibrate in low, gentle strains of
melody, when swept by the magic hand of
love ?—and is that sweet music of the heart
hushed to the meanings of despair ? Did
the world tempt thee with its pictures of
brightness, as it promised the great boon
of happiness, as a reward to its train of
worshipers ? Didst thou plunge into its
wikLwhirl of fashion—quaff its brimming,
sparkling wine-cup. and wear its crown of
roses, never dreaming of the thorns con
cealed beneath its beauty, that pierced
thee ? Have all these alluring, ever glow
ing phantasies led thee on and on in the
broad road of pleasure, until the straight
gate and the narrow way was unseen and
forgotten ? And afterward did that fickle
thing, fortune, desert thee, its favored,
petted child, and friends, and love, and all,
prove false as the dream of the sleeper?
Has hope, like a bird that flits f.om tree to
tree, pointed out the bright things of the
future? Did she show thee jewels just
beyond, and when thy hand stretched forth
to grasp them, did she hear the gem away,
and fluttering her wings, sing a gay song
that mocked thy troubled, wistful heart ?
Poor, desolate wanderer, while gazing on
all the fading pleasures and beauties of
earth, turn thv footsteps from the vain
pursuit of shadowy forms, look higher than
earth, and a world of purity and happiness
will meet th v vision.
It. may be thon art alone and friendless
in the wide world. Thy loved ones sleep
ing, where the soft shadows come and go
in the church-yard, where for many sum
mers “ the grass has grown green ” and
the flowers budded and faded between them
and thee. And down in those quiet graves,
perchance is buried all that made life
bright and happy. Does thy heart, bereft
of its treasures, turn sadly away from the
scenes of earth, yearning for the hour
when “ the silver cord be broken ” and
thy spirit, no longer fettered can fly to
meet, them? Look upward, the path they
trod is before thee, though full of thorns
and stony places, the unfading flowers of
love bloom there. There the angels of
peace will clasp their white wings above
thee to shield away the darts of evil. And
soon, thine earthly mission ended, and the
dark river safely passed, the happy ones
gone on before will greet thee, and with
them forever thou wilt roam the green pas
tures. beside still waters.
Perhaps thy weather-beaten, tempest
tossed bark, has well-nigh finished its voy
age over the sea of life. Thongh amid the
storm, the crested waves still beat.and lash
around thee, “ look aloft.’’ There is a rift
in the clouds, through which shines steadily
and undimmed, a star that will lead thee
safely into the haven. Keep thine eye upon
its rays of brightness, and soon the shores
of the better land will be in view. Fear
not the dangers all around thee, arid never
for a moment let thy faith waver. Thai
star will guide thee safely, as surely as
thine eye beholds ii. fHIACIL.

This was a case brought to the notice of
his Honor the Mayor, by the Marshal.
Wm, Miles had rented a log building on
his premises to Quilly Willis, a colored wo
man. who had paid Miles for the same a
month’s rent in advance. Miles soon found
: that Quilly was keeping a disorderly house,
and applied to the Marshal to have her
! ejected. The Mayor summoned her to ap
pear before him ; hut owing to a misappre
hension of the summons, or a wilful ne
! gleet. Willis did not appear. His Honor
l construing this failure to attend a contemj t
: of Court, ordered her to be ejected.
Afterwards understanding the true state
of the case, hi* Honor heard the case in the
evening, and finding the charge of disor
