Crmmunicatior.s lrom bona fide bondholders may in the meantime be made to the undersigned. “ Terrel, Chaiibf.rlaix & Blake, “ Solicitors for the bondholders.” Commenting upon this advertisement, the London Star, of the 2Sd, says ; There is not in international law one shred of authority to support the idea that a rightful' Government is bound to assume the debts which were con ! traded to aid in its own destruction. The doctrine Is so manifestly absurd {hat it only, requires to be staled to'be itß own refutation. The Ccmfedei ate bondholders are not'debtors to the late Southern Government, If they ; were they might, pv-roeps. find some theory of j law which would absolve them from the disa -1 gveeabie duly of pay'ng, They are unfortu nately creditors, and their debtor has disap peared, leaving no effects which are not claimed by the creditor having the preference. The United States claims all tho cotton, all the' ships, all the money, all the stores of the Confederates in neutral countries, as well as in the South. The Stonewall has already been given up to them by Spain. Jho 'henandoab will be civen up bv any ccuitry in whose bor ders she seeks refuge.

Washington, D C AuM 26. | Hon. Gtorgt B Edmonds. Clermont, loira : Dear Sik ; I have just received your letter of the 21st inst,. -stating amou* ether things, i that the Union State Convention of lowa ha. ' adopted as a plan iu ite platform a rasom- ■ mentation in favor of negro tuff.aga; tba‘ the | Copperhead Convention has indorsed Presi-t dent Johnson’s policy for the reorgstezaboii j of 3tatet assuming it to be in opposition to! negro suffrage .$• that this is, in our opinion,' the issue joined between the two parties in Iowa; that heretofore the Unk-n party has de rived valuable aid from me in support of its principles; that you regret, however, to ob serve a newspaper report of a speech recently maae by me, which places me, as you think, in antagonism with its present principle and policy, which gives ycu pain. In reply, I have to say, that J; your opinion was well founded, it would be a c ,e.-. of Siater pain to me than toyourself; but, 1 beg ye respectfully to state that y u mi .-. j bend the position cf President'John, on, and my own as well as that of the Unk-n party at large. The real question at issue, in an ational point of view, is not whetbei negroes ehab be permitted to vote, but whether they shall de rive that authority from the national Govern ment or from the State Governments respec tively. President Johnson maintains the doctrine that the Constitution of the United States and es not confer on the Federal Government the right to interfere primasiiv with the question of suffrage in any State of the Union; that tho question may arise and properly be decided by Congress, when Senators and members present themselves for admission to scats in that body, under the clause cf tho Constitution, which makes each Honse tbo exclusive judge of the qualifications and elections of members’; and that other clause of the Constitution of the United States, which jwovide? tint “ the Uni ted States shall guarantee to every State :r. the Union a republican form oi" government.’’ I infer that if any State should adopt a law on (hesubject of suffrage, which would dearly i«how the State Government to be oilier i an republican, it would L s the duty of Congress to reject applicants for sente, and to ;-drp! whatever legislative remedies would in then judgment be necessary to carry cut the- guaran ties of the Constitution. That the State of lowa may tako steps to extend the right of suffrage, is not, rs it seems to me, in conflict with this policy, and, conse quently, those-who support the policy of the President on this subject arc not in antag onism with the platform oi tho Union party of lowa. The Union party of that State prop s) that the State shall modify its own Constitu tion so as to include as electors, persons who have not, under its present provisions, the right to veto. This, as President Johnson main tains, a State may do, but that the National Government would have no right, to require lowa, or any other State, to modify its "own Constitution, on this or any other subject, when not iu conflict with the Constitution of the Uui ted States. If fsbonld be In lowa when that question is' submitted to the people, if it -Louhi be so submitted by the Lfgieluturt, i would vote to extend the right to a; I cMssuoof persons pos sessing the requisite intelligence and patriot ism to be intrusted with a participation in the management of public affairs, State or Nation a!, without regard to their nationality, as I do not believe that the liberty of auy class o! people can be considered safe who are to be permanently deprived cf the exercise cf this right. Ido not disguise iheso Opinions ; yon may therefore make what use of this letter you may deem proper. 1 have the honor to be. Very respectfully, Your obedient sert’t, Jas Hauian. FOR EISA HEMS.
