The States would thus ves as willing lor im mediate union undertbe Constitution, whiie it would be the Northern State- The former disunion i-r- would thereby become I nionist.-. r; • he former practical disunionists. 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 t! i > Constitution abohshsng Slavery? A —ld 1 think the States, how ever abolished slavery in good faith, a- one of the results of the war. — *1 neir ratification of the Constitution al Amendment followed as a conse oueace. Ido not think there is any constitutiional power on the part of the Government to have exacted it as t.i.'ru to their restoration under the Constitution, or to the assumption 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 ’ rhe. question It is a question tor the determine Q —Ha” von termed any opinion u- ‘• that question ? - A. I Mvrinot that 1 ha-re form e 1 an v v Gtrod opinion in reference to sinv rarticular act of Congress embrac 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.

PLANTATION FOR SALE. I>v reference to his advertisement in another column, it will be seen that Mr. .Tames A. Linton, of Thomasville, is offer ing for sale his valuable plantation in Mid dle Florida. From our knowledge of the property, we believe it to be one of the best plantations in that section of the State, i and presents the best opportunity for in vestment. now offered to the public in that ! Sta'e. Let capitalists look to their in- I terests. RcMru. E. REUINOTON A- SON. This old and well established firm again address themselves to the public, through the medium of a large advertisement, to which we invite the attention of our read ers, in to-day’s paper. They are already ! well known to the older inhabitants of this section, and need no recommendation ’ from us. as to their standing and business character. We design only to dire,ct atten tion to the rich and varied assortment of goods and wares alluded to in their adver ,i tisement. FIVE TOR ACCO. The best article of Tobacco we have seen since the war. is to be found at the store i of Messrs WOLFF k Brother. They have lately purchased fl. large lot for this mar ket. and it is really a splendid article. The devotees of the weed will do well to sup j ply themselves of this lot. before it is all gone. We have sampled it, and consider ing ourself a good judge of the superior ; qualities, we do not hesitate to recommend I it to our readers. TIN WARE MANUFACTORY. AVe invite the attention of onr readers to the Tin Ware manufacturing establishment of Mr. Benjamin F. Fudge, on Jackson street, opposite the Post Office. Mr. Ftdge is an old citizen of the place well known to many of our readers, and worthy of good patronage Like most of us he served in the war. lost his property and now sets up again. He is a good workman, and his wares give abundant proof of his skill. When you want tin ware give him a call. FIRST OF MAY! The young ladies and gentlemen of this i vicinity, celebrated the first of May. by a Pic Nic at Rocky Ford, on the Ockiockonee ’ river Business prevented our attendance but we learn that the Pic Nic was a com plete success, and as the day was tine, not withstanding the threat of rain in the morning we have no doubt that the young people enjoyed it very much. FI/ORIH A SENTINEL. This excellent journal is now published tri-weekly, and contains a large amount of ’ original, miscellaneous and news matter, rendering it one of the best papers in Flo rida. Under the able management of Messrs. Shfber & Oliver. it is destined to enjoy a wide and well merited popular ity. and add to the tone and dignity of its community. We congratulate our sister city. Tallahassee, upon the great improve ment. since the war, of her public journals, and her good luck in having two tri-week lies In their management, her interests will be promoted and her tone elevated THF ORIGIN OF HIIICH It is said that, an egg broken and its i contents emptied into a glass of cold wa ter. will present when held in the sun i shine, n complete miniature ship, with all I its masts, rigging.

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. ThowtatviUe, 1860. Pr*T(vdl i ST* *f i 1 of fltr Tdwm ms TK#mu*wilU Cm-NCTL ROOM, ) Thomasville. April Nflth DtiU.

Ordered that Mr. McLean make out spcific&tions of such alterations as he may wish to make. The two new Policemen appointed by the Mayor were confirmed by council, at a I r alary of forty dollars each per month. An ordinance relating to buildings in i the Fire District was read and laid over for consideration at the next meeting Council then adtonrned. WM CLINE. Clerk. Wm. Milks \ vs. ( Quilly Willis.> 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 : derly conduct, substantiated by the wit nesses. let his judgment of the morning stand, and ordered the full amount, of the 1 rent advanced bv Willi to be returned to i her. ‘ WM.

Gabriel Ballard. ) Police officer stated, that he was called i on, on the night, of the 30th ult.. and found Sallard. the husband, boating his-wife. It appears Sallard went out, the fore-part of the night, and afterwards his wife went out also—to church, as she said. Sallard i returned to his house and found his wife , absent. He went out again, and on return ing a second time found her in bed. He i commenced abusing, and from abusing to . beiting her. She made some tight too, - but was not a match for him. His Honor sentenced the prisoner, Ga -1 brief Sallard, to confinement in jail for 1 twenty days. WM. CLINE, Clerk. Thomasville, May 1, 1866. Wii.ltam Harrison a vs. > Assault. Rany Ann Green & Celia Grady j This was a case brought before his Honor, the Mayor, for threatening language to wards Harrison, (all colored) and strong demonstration with unloaded pistol and i dinner knife.

The Fenian “Head Centre.’ 7 “Head Centre” Stephens is thus des cribed by the Paris Opinion Na- I tionale : “He is of middle height and of dis tinguished manners. He wears a long, fair beard, and with long hair of a some what darker hue, and his features, though delicately formed, indicate en ergy, His forehead shows uncommon intelligence, and anrmness of will made I remarkable by his prominent eyebrows. ! His eyes, though keen and sparkling, have something of the softness of the North, and testify to the sharpness of the intellect, rendered enthusiastic at the idea of Irish emancipation, In a word, everything in the physiognomy and appearance of Mr. titephens proves the man who devotes himself to gener i ous ideas, and who does not shrink from the responsibility of carry ing : them out. Enterprising. The last Thomasville Enterprise contains over four columns and a half of new advertisement! This speaks well for the business capacity and j habits of that public spirited people. It proves inccntestihly that Thomas ) ville merchants appreciate the lmpor ) tance of the ureas in advancing their I true interests, and they are not niggard ly in availing themselves of its bene fits. Many of our readers trade in that market, and we wouid refer them to the columns of the Southern Enter prise for information of much value.
