From Evening Edition oif Yesterday Death oi (Jen John K. Jackson.—The an nouncement of the death of Gen John K. Jack son, odo of our most prominent and useful citizens, will be received with profound sorrow l»y our peoulo. The following dispatch, re ceived by his family, conveys the melancholy tidings of his demise. At another time his private and public worth, and his services and prominence before and during the war will bo chronicled : Milledgkville, Fob. 27, 1886. The General died at two o’clock, this morn ing; expect to reach Augusta, Thursday morn ing with remains. W. S. Jones. Henry Ward Beecher Sustains the Teto. It is a gratifying sign, when a man of Henry Ward Beecher’s abilities and political influence, whotlier from an impulse of honesty, or pro* acieut intelligence of what is coming, deter miuoH to cast in hig fortunes with the Presi dent, and sustain him against the storm of .. Radical opposition hy'wliich he is assailed. On Tuesday last Mr. Beecher delivered a lecture in the Academy of Music, at Brooklyn, before on “immense audience,’’ in reply to the “South Victorious,” of Wendell Phillips. Wo subjoin some of the most striking and important passages of his lecture : FREEDMEn'b RUKBAU There is a Freedmen’s Bureau. There was in Congress a bill for the more efficient organ! nation of it. All men’s hearts have been to-day excited by the tidings that the Freedmen’s Bureau bill has been vetoed by the President. (Some hisses.) lam sorry that he felt it to be bis duty lo veto it, and I am sorry that the bill was so drawn that he was obliged to feel it to be his duty to veto it. But, mark I this is not vetoing a bureau, nor an amended or re organized bureau, but only that particular form of bureau which that bill contained. It does not commit the President against any proper department administering to the blacks throughout the South. We know, on the other hand, that, lie is in favor of such a bureau Ami I confer-s that on reading his message it has left a profound impression on my mind that he urges most serious and weighty reasons wiiy, in the form in which it went before him, it should not havo become the law of tbe land. But I believe and am sure that no man in this land is mere in favor of some legislation that shall amount to an efficient protection for the black man than President Johnson himself. (Applause.) They are to be protected, but they nro not to bo protected at the expense of the,Constitution, but by its integrity. No one in the United States is moro in noed of having that immortal instrument maintained than th» poor, recently enslaved, but now emancipated black mon. Men who havo knowledge of tho freed men may bo warped by their sympathy an if by their generous sentimo ,ts so as not well to consider that while legislating to save the freedmen, it may be at tho expense of tho,so laws and those instruments in which bis very safety itself resides ; and if they are carried past the point of moderation, it is well thero should bo opportunity for reconsideration. SPBBDT RESTORATION. On tho other hand, looked for one moment nt the effects of s prolonged exclusion of the Southern States. It is weaning tho citizens of thoso States moro and more from tho national government. For five years they have thought of Washington except to curse her. They have not felt the need of it. They have not felt any blood running through them that came from the national heart. It is proposed to mako tiiem live live years more out of the Unkin. Is that t.he way to make them love it? Ts that the way to mako them feet'their need of tbe government ? v * • btFPUAOK. V Mr. Beecher declared himself" in favor <.f negro suffrage, saying * “suffrsgo is the legal sequence of emancipation.” He said, too, iliat he ‘‘would allow the ship-loads of foreigners t emptied upon our shores to vote nt once,” He t announced himself in favor of extendin ( suffrage to womon, and' making them eligible i to office. REUNION OT THI STATES ‘ - I T hold it would be better that the Stales ' should bo brought into the Union to-morrow* « every or.e of them. And in this regard allow 1 me to say that I cannot go wilh eilbor tho President or Congress I would bring all in at < otrce; they mean to keep them all out at onee* ( (Laughter.) They would let in a part, and let the rest wait and see how they would like it. i I know they are stumbling on this point. If < you let in Tennessee on ihat principle you will have to let in all the rest. I like to see a man idiuid upon principle—upon sound principles.— < They would let, in Tennessee and Alabama, and 1 Georgia. and when South Carolina came and 1 asked why cot let ns in ou the same principle sis Tennessee and the others, they would 1 answer, ‘'Because we thought they would be better in that out, and we thought you would be better out than in.” (Laughter.) On what 1 principle do they do that f I will consider that .afterwards. This does not seem to be states- 1 clanship. But, not to dwell upon that, let us consider how they argue tho matter. They eay wo must keep these States out till we got guarantees from them. What do you mean by guarantees ? GUARANTEES WANTIE XROH ME SOUTH. You are going to keep them out until you arc certain it would be best to let them in. It is impossible to give a certainty. What are the things that you want guarantees about ? Secession, rebellion, the condition of the freed inen. Wluit 1 a guarantee of secession ? We want a guarantee that the South are willing to give it up. How long would you lake before you would consider that experiment as settled —five years ? Would that cure them ? No >v tho South is just in the condition of a man that has gone into court with a contested title. He believes that ho is the owner of that estate, and tho other parties believe they are the own ers of it. All bis life is in that conflict. It is decided against him in the lower court, and bo carries it to the court of last resort and argues it. The judges decide it against him finally, and what does good citizenship require T Does it require that lie should say, “Mr. Judge, I am perfectlv satisfied that I did not own this property. Do you require him to change his opinion ? Is more required of him than this, that he says, “I shall, as a good citizen, obey the laws; Ido not think it was right, but it is decided aga-nst me, and I shall obey.” Is not that all that you would require of contestant ina court? And now the South believed iu secession. The works of Calhoun were taught in their colleges, and tho young men were j taught, as you are tmight the contrary doctrin'', to believe that State rights was the true po litical doetriDe. Many of them asserted the right to secede from this government, from tho compact and confederation of Stales; they believed it. What has toe war done? The war has settled the fart, whether they believe it or, not, that it shan’t be. Thrfact is settled that it shan’t be, and all you can ask tbe South is, will you give up the fact and say so? Will yon give up tbe fact., though you still believe the doc trine? Are you going to keep them out tiff they don’t believe the doctrine ? The question is settled when ,they say, "We have referred this puestiou to the court and abi rament o! war, and war has declared against ns, and we accept the verdict —we bow to it,” Can you, in honor, ask anything mo e than that? “But then we want guarantees against rebellion.”— Four parts out of five of :he total properly ->l tbe South have been destroyed by war, and is • not that guarantee th3t they won’t fight again very so-, n ? The population of tbe South bis been more than decimated—doubly decimated There is mourning thereof which wo have no record or knowledge her*. What village lias beeu blotted out in tbe North ? Hundreds have been there What cities have been depopulated here? Many, many there. Whole extinguished and lineage blotted out. There were no bells rung and no trumpets sounded on the return ul shattered remnants of armies; at d now do you want a guarantee that this depopulated and destroyed South will not at tempt to organize a war again? Tiih Catholic Chuhoh in Ibband.— The Rv man Catholic Archbishop of Cbasel has just addressed a lotto? to one of the Roman Catho 1c members of Parliament, in which, referring to the suggested endowment of his church, lie affirms bis determination to support the volun tary system and that alone. Be w<wld. lie nays, oppose any measure that would make the Roman Catholio bishops and priests in Ireland stipendiaries of the State in any degree what ever. Dr. Leary states bis belief tbat by this declaration ho expresses tlie sentiments of the* bishops and priests of bis church in Ireland- BY STOCKTON & CO [Reported for the Constitutionalist ] THE GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
