VOLUME a, Making Treason Qdioua^ The President directed that fyapbael Hemmes, the late commander of the late Alabama, shall not while he remain* un pardoned, hoM or exereise the function of Probate Judge, to which office he has just been elected in Mobile. This is an injication of caution and prudence wl\icb will be commended by every good eitzen When Mr Johnston became President lie made many speeches to, many deputa- ! (ions, and the refrain ol e,vory speech was that (tew# must be made odious.— No, sentiment he ever uttered was more approved. It was not because he was un deratood to mean that there must be uni versal vengeance. No sensible man wish ed that there should be a general hanging and confiscation and outlawery. No one who knew history and human nature im agined that the peace that l\a<\ been won could be secured by a vindictive polrey. Treason was to be made odious by hop, pring patriotism. The Government \ins to favor tho e who had boen faithfal V' it during the long, dark day of rebellion Such a policy was founded in common sense. It was intelligible to the dull est mind. Why, then, has it been so of» ten disregarded ? We are not of those who say or believe that the President wishes to put the Gov ernment into the hand* of it* enemtos. — Itis sheer folly to insist that he is anx ious to welcome red-handed rebels into Congress. .V man is not proved a villain because his views appear to bo short sighted and perilous. Some of the hon. estest men in the world have done the most mischief, but for all that they were not bad men. That the President should wish to see the Union restored in it* nor mal duriug his AdiqjqUtration is most natural and laudable; nor iq i( necessary to sus poet tho motives of such a desire. Wo disagree, indeed, with many of his views, and the temper in which he often discussos public affairs in his popular speeches is mo*t lamentable. His disposition to make assent to his the ories the test of patriotic fidelity is, of course, simply preposterous, and any sys tematic attempt upon tils pure, wtilcli wo do not anticipate, but which is clamor ously urged upon him, to prostitute the vast of office to the promotion of his own purposes, however honestly tho«e purposes may be entertained, we trust will be constitutionally .opposed to utmost. But we believe hp heartily .deplores the unnromisin? state of leelintr in large portions of the late rebel section, and while he is inclined to attribute it to the delay of Congress to admit loyal representatives from that section, he probably entirely forgets how much of the unsatislaetory condition of the late insurgent Siijtes is due to departure* from the policy of inaking.treafon odious. When the Union men of those States who have suffered every kii'd of outrage, who hare been fined, mobbed, imprison— pd, and have neon thpir Union peighbors hunted and tortured aud hung tor their fidelity to the Government, sec a man like General Humphreys, ol Mississippi, a conspicuous, leading traitor hastily par doocd by the President that he may he pome Governor; when they see .Mr. Mou roe, of New Orleans, another cjjipf trait or, pardoned that he ijecoipu Mayor when they see member* of the I | deliberately aonijlliojj (he law of tfip |ainl in order to appoint latp rpbcls to naiioqal offices, while the most noted aatj trjeii Union meQ in the insurgent Stales ask in vain for suc|( recognition of their fideli ty, how can sucb men help bitterly feel ing the oonteiuptuottti eoorn with which the triumphant rebels regard them ? llow can they help asking why they might not as well have been rebels? How can they help the conviction that the policy of the Executive is conciliation of rebels and pot recognition of Union men, or avoid asking with intense incredulity whether thii is the way in trpason if to be pade odious ? On the other haiid, what is Rjppp natu ral than that the late rebels jrho, as the President solemnly last year, were to be made .odious, seeing exactly what the Uniop pien see, should depogncc Congress precisely as they used fo dp pounce "the ifctfh," should heap pytifj insulting superlative upon the most loyal men in the country, should vociferously declare their "righfj," and vehem ently to expound the Constitution which for four years they have trampled ijpder foot * What is more natural 112 j>;jn that these men whose treason, the taught us, was to make them odious, should persecute with savage ferocity the most Unfortunate and defenseless of all Uuion pen >.n the South, the attack their teachers and assassinate th# offii-ers of the Bureau; when they see tfje Executive is plainly hostile to the Freed men s Bureau, is reluctant to secure t'ieir °' * n< i fiercely denounces as AMERICAN CITIZEN. traitors their especial friends I JSTW ft more natural than that who were to be mde odiotw »W>vM it odious to have been % \fnioo man, And aa Mr. ItoMR sayn fa Y'irginia, ahciMd "as same a sope'iorrty ovw the loyal men of this impudent, defiant, and dttex ui iUt'il to decapitate, and put the brand of infamy up<m loyal men, and by legislation to reß<ler treason commend- J able and loyalty a crime." What won tier that Ihe late rebel Mayor of Mobile, at a banquet of rebels, toasts together Andrew Johnson and Jefferson Davis, vhile John Minor Botts, whose fidelity to the Union will not be > pe lares that he has abandoned John son's plan ? What is the explanation of extra ordinary state of affairs ? A 'year ago. amidst tha total ruin of the rebellion and exhaustation of the rebel section, and with the hearty sympathy and support of every loyal man in the land, Mr. Johnson became President, declaring, while aty tfcc people said Amen, that treason must be uiadp ovlio\is. Now, when a year has passed, it is loyalty that is odious and dangerous in the disaffected section, and the vast body of loyal eitizeus gaze at the President in wonder. Is this situa tion to be explained by the delay ot Con gress to admit loyal representatives from unorganized States, or by the fact that the Executive has not succeeded in mak ing treason odious in those States ? If from the moment lie became Presi dent Mr. Johnsou. wnile he reasonably pardoned and amnestied the late rebels, had strenuously supported in every way constant (ityiau men of the rebel Stales, if be had shown the most unflinch ing determination that every right the freedmcn should be respectccf, and had every where manifested success of the Government bj iu official preference ot those who had defended it and believed in it tinder terrible trials, then, whatever his differences with Congress upon ques lions of method wight have been, hi* pol icy would have been as approved and re sistless as that of Mr. Lincoln.

' r ...

MARYLAND. ~ The Unconditional Unionists, tliongh deserted by a fyiw of tfiose they elevated to high positions, are rallying to carry their State as usual. They have recent ly held great meetings at Frederick and at Baltimore, which were ably addressed by several leading members of Congress. To the latter, Speaker Colfax wrote as follows • FLPYA? HEPBISBKTATJVM, \ W ASHIN'OTON CITY, May 18, 'O6. J GENTLEMEN : My heart boats in uni son with the earnest Union men who will assemble to-night in llaltimorc to renew together their pledges of devotion to the great principle commanded both by patri otism tnd duty, that loyal men should govern a preserved Republic, and regret sincerely that tl)0 constant pressure on my time prevents my being with them. Congress remains firm, united and in' flexible its adherence to that piippiple. Not only in the organization last Decem ber, but also in the passage of the act protecting Union officers from rebel suits in plaoing the Civil Rights bill by a two thirds vofe among our national statutes, aud in adoption of thp jrfeyeciible guarantees by the Committee on Reconstruction, the Union ranks in the House have been, witty scarcely an exception, unbroken ; and the jusfipp of the p '-use will keep them united to the end. If its policy needed any vindication, it woitld be found in the abuse of tho en emies of the country which it has been honored. Every man conspicuous in the wicked rebellion which threatened the nation's life denounces if. Kvery traitor chieftain, with the bjood of murdcfpd Union defenders btill undried his skirts, denounces it. Out embittered en emies, who hang f|3 deserters Unionists captured under tjjp old flag, denounoe it. Richmond Exam ine/, whioh prophesied less a week *go thai, though copqugfed, "(he eqd it uot yet," denounces it. The Southern presses which have Dominated leader of the Rebellion for the {'residency of the Union who drew the sword to des troy, denounce it The men all over Jhe North who resisted every war policy of Mr. Lincoln's Administration, and by speech and platform, iu 18&4, declared the war a failure and demanded an imme diate cessation of hostilities, denounce it. But all these denunciations fall point less and harmless at its feet. From them Congress appeals to the people, and I haye no fear of tho result. When the I country was clouded the gloom of defeat in 1862 our political adversaries were confident of thefr fptarn to power; but the lojal am said No, and the good cause triumphed ia tfee hoar of the !*<• »* tk ® ■ M, i on of the eightV eightV Congress, the constitution al amendment abolishing Slavery of a two-thirds vo^e — and this was in boastings of our oppononts that the pla - ces that knew us would know us no iliorc thereafter. But, even with their war-cry agaiugt wso.f "an Abolition war," and their appeals whether "white men should be drafted to free negroes," t,he loyal people overwhelmed them at the polls, turned all their premature rejoic ings into sorrow, asd returned over 100 to the fyi\se—the sweep ing vi ever known ia our history, "rtie popular Uas sound and as true to the right oof ae U was then. The policy pioppslfi Vj Congress cannot be justly regarded as extreme or vindictive, even by those. l\°i paving forsworn their eountry, enacting all who would not surrender should be as alien enemies, rais ing armies to on the Union, and sig nalizing thei{ puwer by the most infamous persecutions, outrages, starvation and murders ever ki,own in a civilized land, now demand what they claim as " their rights," in the most arrogant and iudig nant terms. If it is criticised, on tho other hand, by those who do not think it goes far enough, Congress can point to the examples of John Bright aud Stuart Mill in the British Parliament,who labor with zeal, not for all that they nay de sire, but for what is attainable. I rejoice that those in Maryland who sustain its wise and judicious registry law, and brieve at a time like this itj the language of "'bat none but those who have been consistently loyal from the beginning should pile in the councils y,f nation or State," stand by Congross so nobly ; as they by it all % (lisc\tUiaa of tt* poaiMyp, thoy will share with it in its tri umph.

Ex-Governor Johnston, Fifteen yeaft ago tfoero was no man in Pennsylvania whose leadership the party opposed to Democracy would have so willingly and so devotedly followed as Wni, F. Johnston. He was our first Ex ecutive of modern times who sought to impress the people and polipy of the State with the genius of Freedom, and he sacri ficed himself in 1851 by his fidelity to bis convictions. He then filled the lull measure of his great m&°bood, and with stood the efforts of the second accidental President (Fillmore) to make the nation forget its sacred mission for the elevation of the human race. He retired though defeated, still more beloved and revered than was his sucoessful competitor, who climbed into the chief magistracy of thQ ytato by discarding his own record, apd prostituting himself to the insolence of Slavery. P»t awbUioft tojj jith the mightiest minds and drags them down to iu iu pitiable imbecility. Such is the history Woi. F- Johnston. *Of all others, ho should have been faithful; but he could flfit salt the fullnoss of time for the peoplo to vindicate him, and he vfar red with fate. Had he bowed to the Storm of prejudice that swept him down fbr a time and calmly awaited the noou tide of tho dawning day, there is no po sition in the government that he might nqt jiare attained. But his follies tower ed side by side with his great ability, and he became the play-thing of little men and af last the least of little men himself. He eould not accept the tide as it eame, and when the whirlwind of 1854 swspt the Slavery leaders from power, It left t behind—hence when aU. S. 8«p«- gras to be chosen he had no place in the contest. Mortified and humiliated the just judgement of his part/, ho repeated UU £t,lly in 1856, when he sought and obtained a sideshow nomination tor the Vice Presidency, and field it as his stock in trado to bartyr for position and power. Finding no contracting parties and no substantial support, he just when he had no party to tran.#r, and lost both principal and interest in the investment. In I s OO another great strug- gle oamo, and again ha dwarfed himself by placing his personal prejudices above bis political convictions, and in 1804 be enough landed in the Cleveland convention yf in good aeaaaa V leal* that be Ipuadi fooling and ■nit come home scared. He tried ia ▼ain to make himself a candidate for Con gress—a position people would have been, proud to 99H hini to bad he been true to himself—and his last domonstra« tion upon the Union party withiu its liDes, was for the clerkship of Congress in 1863. but he was practically without supporters and a younger and a truer maa won the Thus disappointed in every effort, Gov. Johnston, in a of the maddest desperation, resolved to espouse the cause of his Presidential namesake, who was in diligent search for men of easy principles and violent ambition. Gov. Johnston repaired to Washington; Bade a politioal epeeofc ity dffenne of the President, and thereby nomination for the poei tion of lector of Revenue for the 28d distriot. He paid the price, and be sup posed that he had the proffered ofiee; but am unappreeiating Senate hu Room ed him to another disfppyifttment by re jecting the nomination., ostensibly bo cause ho does not live in the district, but in fact, we do not doubt, beoause the Seuate will not sanction the ostracism of faithful men for political vaiuiplollowers to gratify a perfidious Executive. Gov. Johnston has bad many ViUor les sons, but none so bitter as this one. lie has delibciately sown to tbo wind and has ever reaped the whirlwind, until now, from the first man of his mighty Com mon wealth, he has fallen so low that there is noire to do him reverence. The true Union men of the State have regard ed hia petty freaks of unbalanced ambi tion w\tb sorrow rather than anger, and they da not rejoice tfc*t ha fallen from |ii> high estate; but they do 112 ith one accord, pronouoot) (ft just the retrib utive stroke that baa proaliawd bias.

Smaller men are treading the same way with him, but to most of them the charity of furgetfulnesa ia easily ex ercised, and thtty leaje tyo monument* as warnings for others as tbey pass away.— Gov. Johnston ha* rendered a better eer vice to mankind than bis bumbler com rades, and however eoetly,it nay be some consolation to biui is hia disappointment that he has pointed a moral that will not be lost to his race. Big Brindle. In Nashville, many years ago, there resided jf gentleman of great hospitality, larg<> fortune, and though uneducated, possessed of a hard, knotty sense. Col. W. had bean etaitod to the legislature, and had also been Judge of tho county court. His elevation, however,had made him somewhat pompous, and be became very fond of using'big On hia farm he had a verj apd mischievous ox, called "Big Brindje," which frequently broke down hi* neighbor's fence*, and committed other depredation*, orach to the Colonel'* annoyance. One morning after breakfast, in the presence of some gentlemen who had stayed vfitl} bim over night, and who woro now on thpir way to town, he called to his overseer ana said to him. "Mr. Allen, I desire you to impound Big in order that I may hoar no more animadversions of his interna} dep redations. .\llen *>°wod ® nd * a,kcd off ' sore Pe aled to know what the Colonel meant So, after the Colonel left the town, he went to his wife and asked her wh>it Col onel W. meant by telling him to impound thqpx. ••Why,'' said she, "tbq Colorjel meant to tell you to put him iq a pen." Allen left to perform % fe»t, for it WM no ineonaiderable one, as tlie animal WM very wild and vicious, and alter a great deal of trouble and relation, be ai)«oeede4. "Well," said be, wiping the prespira tion from his brow, an 4 soliloquiiing, "this is impounding, is it? Now lam dead sure the Colonel will ask P»e if I imppiipcted Big Bripdle and I'll bet I 11 puzzle him as bad a.she 4iJ me. The uext daj the Colonel gave a (Jia ner par.y, and as he was not Allen,, the overseer, sat down with tjie company.

This wiu too much. The company roared again, M which the Uulonel WM forced to join; and in the middle of the laughter Allen left the table saying to himself a* he wont, "I reckon the Colonel won task me to impound any & ore ox en."
