Seymour During the War,
The following despatches need
little comment at our hands; when
adicals call Seymour a copperhead
and disloyal, just read them the fol-
lowing from the REPORTER;
WassHiNaroN, June 19, 1863.
“GOVERNOR SEYMOUR :
“The President desires me to return
his thanks, with those of this Depart-
ment, for your prompt response. A
strong movement of your city regiments
to Philadelphia would be a very en-
'couraging movement, and do great
good In giving strength in that State.

“EDWIN M. STANTON,

enough to satisfy the passionate grati-

Dear Sir—I cannot forbear expres-

present emergency. The energy, ac-
tivity and patriotism you have exhibi-

I shall'be happy always to be ese

“Secretary of War.”
“His Excellency, Horatio Seymour.”
Li addition to this, the Republican
Legislature of New York, by analmost
vote, thanked Governor
Seymour for his efficiency in orgari-
zing and sending troops to the front. It
is a fact that Governor Seymour was

The truths we have ‘here’ submitted
to our Republican friends, constitute
calymnies uttered by the Radical press
against one’ of the purest patriots in
the land, whose energy in reinforcing
our armies saved them from defeat,
empowored them to overthrow the force
of Lee then on Northern soil, and car.
ry back the war to the south side of
the Potomac river. But for these
troops Gettysburg would, in all probs
ability, have been lost. This timely

The Southern Votes Bill.
The New York Journalof Commerce
with reference to the bill which has
just passefl Congress, relative to votes
of the States lately in rebellion in the
Presidential election says:
+ “It is an undesguised political de-
vice, designed to make sure the elec-
tion of Grant and Colfax by throwing
out of theeleetoral college every South-
"oe

ITA LL
ern Democratic State. We doubt
whether any honorable man of either
party can be tound to apologize for or
extenuate this scheme. If realized it
may achieve the success of Grant and
Colfax, but it will forever redound to
the disgrace of the party which permit-
ted so flagrant a wrong to be done. If
Congress should refuse to admit South-
ern electoral votes ou the plea that the
South is still so rebellious and not to
might smile at the stupidity of such a
statement and pity the Congress that
knew no better. But to do it openly
and avowedly, (or the same as avow-
edly,) with the object of defeating nom-
inees, this is a depth of shame, indeed,
for the legislation of this country to be
dragged into.”
Other independent journals take the
same view of the measure and its ef
fects, Another journal says:
“According to its provisions the
States of Louisiana, South Carolina,
Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and
Arkansas will be entitled to take part
in the comingelection, they either hav-
ing been already admitted to repre-

ical contest. With regard to Texas
and Virginia, if even they should be
carried by the Radicals, there is no
to representation in time to take part
in the election, as Congress will adjourn
stitutions, and will scarcely meet again
until after the conflict for the Presi-
dency shall have been decided. Under
assumed that there will be but six of
the ex-rebel States represented in the
electoral collere, unless the lower house

under the Constitution, and of civil gov-
ernment to the American people.
cal offenses, and the rerulation of the
elective franchise in the States by their
citizens, .
Third. Payment of the public debt
of the United States as rapid as prae-
ticable ; all moneys drawn from the
people by taxation, except so much as
is requisite for the necessities of the gov-
ernment, economically administered
being honestly applied to such payment,
and where the oblizations of the gov-
ernment dy not expressly state upon
their face, or the law under which they
were issued does not provide that they
right and in justice, be paid in the law-
ful money of the United States. (Thun-
ders of applause.)
Fowrth. Equal taxation of every
species of property according to its real
value, including the government bonds,
and other public securities. (Renewed
cheering, and cries of “read it again.”)
Fifth. Oae earrency for the govern-
ment and the people, the laborer and
the officeholder, the pensioner and the
soldier, the producer and the bondhol-
der. (Great cheering and cries of
“read it again,”) The fifth resolution
was again read, and again cheered.
Steth. Yconomy in the administra-
tion of the government ; the reduction
of the standing army and navy; the
abolition of the Freedmen’s Bureau
(great cheering,) and all political in-
strumentalities designed to secure negro
supremacy ; simplification of the sys-
tem, and discontinuance of inquisitori-
al assessing and collecting internal rev-
enue, so that the burden of taxation
may be equalized and lessened, the
credit of the Government and the cur-
actments for enrolling the State milita
into a national forces in time of peace,
and a tariff for revenue upon foreign
imports, and such equal taxation under
the internal revenue laws as will afford
incidental protection to domestic manu-
factures, and as will, without impair-
ing the revenue, impose the least bur-
den upon and best promote and encour-
age the great industrial interests of the
country.
Seventh.
administration, the expulsion of ecor-
rupt men from office, the restoration of
rightful authority to, and the independ-
ence of, the executive and judicial de-
partments of the government ; the sub-
ordination of the military to the civil
power, to the end that the nsurpations
of Congress and the despotism of the
Reform of abuses in the
sword may cease,
Eighth. Equal rights and protection
for naturalized and native-born citizens
at home and abroad ; the assertion of
American nationality which shall com-
mand the respect of foreign powers and
furnish an example and encouragement
to people struggling for national integ-
rity, constitutional liberty and indi-
vidual rights ; and the maintenance of
the rights of naturalized citizens against
the absolute doetrine of immutable al-
legiance, and the claims of foreign
powers to punish them for alleged
crimes committed beyond their juris-
dictien. (Applause.)
In demanding these measures and
reforms we arraign the Radical party
for its disregard of right, and the un-
paralleled oppression and tyranny
which have marked its career.
After the most solemm and unani-
mous pledge of both houses of Congress
to prosecute the war exclusively for the
maintenance of the government and
the preservation of the Union under
the Constitution, it has repeatedly vio-
lated that most sacred pledge under
which alone was rallied that noble vol-
unteer army which earried our flag to
victory.
Instead of restoring the Union; it
it, and subjected ten States, in time of
profound peace, to military despotism
there the right of trial by jury ; it has
abolished the habeas éorprs—that most
sacred writ of liberty ; it has over-
thrown the freedom of speech and the
and secret star chamber inguisitions
| tribunals ; it has
disregarded in time of peace the rights
of the people to be free from searches
and seizures ; it has entered the post
and telegraph offices, and even the pri-
vate reoms of individuals, and seizod
their private papers and letters without
any specific charge or notice of aflida-
vit, as required by the organic law ; it
has converted the American Capitol
into a bastile; it has established a sys-
tem of spies and official espionage to
which no constitutional monarchy of
Europe would now dare to resort; it
has abolished the right of appeal on
important constitutional questions to
the supreme judicial tribunals, and
threatens to curtail or destroy its orig-
inal jurisdiction, which is irrevocably
vested by the Constitution, while the
learned Chief Justice has been sub-
merely because he would not prosti-
tute his high office to the support of
the false and partisan charges prefer-
red against the President. Its corrup-
tion and extravagance have exceeded
anything known in history, and by its
frauds and monopolies it has nearly
doubled the burden of the debt created
by the war. It has stripped the Presi-
dent of his constitutional power of ap-
pointment, even of his own cabinet.
Under its repeated assaults the pillars
of the government are rocking on their
base, and should it succeed in Novem-
ber next and inaugurate its President,
we will meet as a subiected and con-
quered people amid the ruins of liberty
and the scattered fragments of the
sonstitution ; and we do declare and
resolve that ever since the people of
the United States threw off all subjec-
tion to the British crown the privilege
and trust of suffrage have belonged to
the several States, and have been gran-
ted, regulated and controlled exelusive:
ly by the political power of each State
respectively, and that any attempt by
Congress, on any pretext whatever, to
deprive any State of this right, or in-
terfere with its exercise, is a flagrant
usurpation of power which can find no
warrant in the Coustitution, and if
sanctioned by the people, will subvert
our form of government, and can only
end in a single centralized and consoli-
dated government, in which the sepa-
rate existence of the States will be en-
tirely absorbed, and an unqualified
despotism be established in place of a
Federal Union of co-equal States ; and
that we regard the reconstruction acts
(so-called) of Congress, as such, are us-
utpations, and ‘unconstitutional; revo
lutionary. and void.
FE
That our soldiers and saildrs, who
carried the flag of our eodiitry to vie-
tory against a most gallant and deter-
mined foe, must ever be gratefully re-
membered, and all the guarantees giv-
en in their favor must be faithfully
carried into exection,
That the public lands should be dis-
tributed as widely HE possible among
the people, and should be disposed of
either under the pre-emption or home-
stead laws, and sold in reasonable quan-
tities, and to none but. actual oceu-
pants, at the minimum price establish:
ed by the government. When grants
of the public lands may be allowed |
necessary for the encouragement, of |
important public improvements, the
proceeds of the sale of such lands, and
not the lands themselves, should be so
applied.
That the President of the United
States, Andrew Johnson (applause) in
exercising the power of his high office
in resisting the ageressions of Congress
upon the constitutional rights of the
States and the people, 1s entitled to the
gratitude of the whole American peo-
ple, and in behalf of the Democratic
party we tender him our thanks for his
patriotic efforts in that regard. (Great
applause.)
Upon this platform the Democratic
party appeal to every patriot, including
all the Conservative element, and all
who desire to support the Constitution
and restore the Union, forgetting all
past differences of opinion, to unite
with us in the present great struggle
for the liberties of the people, and that
to all such, to whatever party they may
have heretofore belonged, we exteud
the right hand of fellowship, and hail
all such cooperating with us as friends
and brethren, (Applause.)

Patriotic Warning from a Distin-
guished Soldier.
Maj. Gen. W.R. Franklin, one of
the bravest and best generals of the
Union army, during the late civil war,
of July, used this patriotic and pro-
phetie language:
“It. is the: duty of every military
maa in a free country, when no longer
in service, to return to their peaceful
avocatsons, [applause] and if they de-
sign to be heard in the civil councils of
the nation, to take their places with
other civilians, and by legal and usual
means exert the influences which their
They
have right (and I mean it in the
broadest sease of the term) to attempt
to exercise influence or gain power
from their positions as military men.
[Prolonged applause.] The exercise
of such influence will, in the end, be
subversive of free institutions, and will
surely prepare the grave ‘of liberty,
paving the way for a military despot,
who will rule this whole country with
the sword, just as one-third of it has
been ruled for the last three years.
Under the influence of secret military
societies, elections will in a ‘short time
become the meanest farce, and Prace-
torian hands will designate our Mayors,
yositions as citizens give them.
no
Governors, and Presidents.”
This warning comes from one who
may well elaim the rightto be heard.
Upon many a bloody field the bright
sword of Frauklin flashed in stubborn
battle. - Ha fought to save the liberties
of this country, to re-unite the people
of the hostile sections. Now he usks
that what he and his comrads strove
togain by the sword, shall not be de-
stroyed by the sword, Shall this brave
man’s wrriiing bein vain ?

A Repudiator,
Mr. Morton; (Rep) of Ind, took
the floor with ‘a prepared speech in ad-
vocacy of the payment of the bonds in
lawful money of the United States—
creenbacks. The five-twenties were a
part of the public debt of which the
covernment declares that such notes
will be lawful money and legal tender.
In reply to the argument in regard to
the declarations of the Secretary of the
Treasury and other government officers
that the bonds were payable in coin,
he said these opinions were based upon
the practice of the government hereto-
fore, and not upon the statutes author-
izing their issue. They were in direct
conflict with four public statutes. In
his opinion the first duty of Congress
isto take steps for a return to specie
payment. He pronounced himself in
favor of the bill, saying that the long
term formed the only inducement to
people to exchange a six per centbond
for a fiveper cent bond. The delusion
held out before the country that these
bonds are tobe paid in coin only worh
disaster by causing people to base their
hopes on false impressions, = This ques-
tion, in his opinion should be frankly
met.
How are you, bohther Morton? and
how are you on the letter and spirit?

Nearons 18 CoNGREss.—Senator
Sumner has written another letter to

The howl against the negro which is
sometimes heard in the Senate would
cease. A colored Senator would be as
good as a constitutional amendment,
making all backward steps ‘imposible.
The New York World suggests that
a negro might be sent from Massachu-
setts, in place of Sumner. Perhaps, he
would not see the measure in so favor-
able a light, if put in practice from
that quarter.

Manly Speech By Mr, Trumbull.
WasniNGTox, July b.
Mr. Edmunds called up to-day his
bill to exclude from the Electoral
College the votes of rebel States which
nave-not-heen-reorganized-and-recogs—
nized by Congress. "The majority of
the Judiciary Committee are under-
stood to have consented to the bill)
which was, however, opposed by the
Chairman, Mr. Trumbullyin a speech.
He took the grouud that Congress had
no discretion in the matter, that the
votes of every State were to be counted
as received, and that, if the: result of
the forthcoming Presidential election
should depend on the votes of the
Southern States, and if the result was
made to turn out according to the par-
tisan views of Corigress, the ‘country
might be once more involved ina dis-
astrous civil war. These manly ex-
pressions: of a Republican Senator
created some excitement, and Mr.
Garret Davis warmly seconded them.
