Frcm the Tribune.
, A timely paragraph in the newspapers states
that 20,000 colored troops, from the Department
ofTexas, "are to arrive bhortly at City Point to
be paid off and mustered out of the service." It
may not be without its uses if those whose pre
judices have been so thoroughly stimulated by a
recent political event, aud who have since been,
even for them, uncommonly vociferous upon the
subject of "niggers," will pause and reflett out
of what service these soldiers are to be mustered,
and what a condition the so-called Conservatives
expect them to be mustered into. A white sol
dier who should return lrom war, less a leg or
with bis general health impaired, after
a devotion of three or four years of Ms life to
the rescue of the Government from extraor
dinary dangers, only to be told that he was
nobody, or less tban nobody, in the Common
wealth in part owing its very existence to nis
exertions, would, no doubt, have an Inclination
as ample as his leisure, to sit down and to
mourn over lngrat.iuda as the easily besetcintr
sin of nat.on. We might afford to laugh at
one solitary colored mau playing Caus Marius
in this disappointed and indignant frame of
mind, but when you have 20,000 mounted upon
their injuries, we do not see how tuir reflec
tions can be promotive of social quietude and
order. You may talk of prudence, you may
f irate of ignorance, you may presume, as the
ate patriarchs did, upon black bestiality, but
the unrewarded, insulted, neglected black
a .tidier ha an intuitive logic of his own, which
is more accurate aud potent than the urst an i
finest chop of the most thamaturgical of col
lege professors. You presume that ho did not
know what he was fighting for. He marched
and camped, advauced and retreated, manipu
lated his tire-lock, txposed his life, with no
more senje than a cavalry horse goes through
his paces, tie became a soldier partly because
he was told to, ana his habit was that ot obe
dience, and partly because he was fond of the
lira, and took a pleasure in running the risk of
. Wagner massacres! This is hardly consistent
witn the old, early theory that he would turn
out a coward and make 'trucks from bis first
batile-tield with velocity but never mind I
It you expect consistency in the arguments and
assumptions of h s haters, you are reckoning
without your host. Poor creature every fool,
every selfish schemer, every ill-natured upstart
may have his say ol him ! He is talked over as
knowing grooms talk over horses he is dis
cussed, dissected, analyzed microscopically, aud
he is deficient here, wanting there, ill-fuiiiiahid
with this, over-furuUhed with that, fit tor one
tiling, unfit for another, but, somehow, never fit
to be justly and honorably treated as a mau,
God-made and God-endowed and God-boloved.
Theie is a world of trouble latent in these
comtortable conclusions especially when the
object ot them is a discharged soldier. Sensible
men at the South foresee t tils as plainly as pos
sible. "Kxtend to the blacks," says ex-Governor
Brown, of Georgia, "all the civil riehts enjoyed
by white persons 1" Shrewd ex-Governor! he
has no pasoion for walking over a mine which at
any moment may explode, and send him sky
hiuh in fragments! He wants peace, security,
peipetuity he want a dinuer to eat and a
ebuuee to eat it in salety he wants a roof in
sured atamft conflagration be wants to plant
aud gather profitably he does not want a
score of eour, disappointed, aggrieved blacks
hanging about r.ia premises, hating, aud with
suliiciont reason to bato alt of his complexion
He is we'l versed enough in history to know
thut tho presence ot a large, discontented class
' of non-producing men, who should be producers,
is lurnom being either profitable or comforta
ble. Perhaps ho has no philanthropy to boast of,
pei haps he ha mone whatever but it is common
prudence, not philanthropy, which ism question.
And Brown can see as far into thut millstone a
any member of his numerous family, with all
the Smiths and Joneses thrown into the estimate.
We suppose that, beiug a Georgian, and an ex
slaveholder, Brown will be listened to respect
fully by even the haughtiest of CoppcrheaJs; and
fur a like reason, whenever we find a Southern
nan talking sense, we exert ourselves to give the
largest possible publicity to his utterance. But
when a Northern man ventures to insist upon
iustice simply, even upon the score ot prudence,
le U howled and velpedanJ growled at as a
pcudo-philauthropUt aud a true fanatic, and
that most damnable and disgusting of all crea
tines, a radical. So we turn over these hyper
critics to Brown. He , no doubt, also a radi
calat any rate, he comprehends thut tbe
' political change in the South is wide, sweeping,
derided, aud wholesale, if net wholBome. and so
gracefully accepts the situation. We will say
nothing of philanthopy. We will admit, tor the
purpose ot the argument, that slavery was an
eminently just, profitable, and charitable, insti
tution, what we niiut, however, insist npon la
thut death is not 1 fe, that freedom is not sen
dom, that emancipation necessitates an ontirely
' lie a and aitlcrpnt policy towards the class eiaan-
cirated, and thai liberty presumes political
equality. We drop the poetry of tbe matter, we
fi. limit to the hardest kind of common sense,
r.nd we rroet against tbe fanatics as danger
ous to tho land, who talk the old talk, hate with
the old hatred, sad bring to the solution of new
qi cctious oulv the mouldy formulas of a bygone

Tho South In Congress.
From the Timet,
. The rumor comes from so many sourcs that
we can scarcely doubt the Intention of the Re
construction Committee speedily to report a bill
for the admission into Congress of the loyal
representatives of Tonne3eo. If newspaper re
poits are of any value, the Commlttoe have
finally decided, by a majority, that tin State
which has furr'shed a President for the Union
Is entitled to recognition on the floor of the
Senate and the House; and legislation Is antici
pated with the view of according; to loyal repre
sentatives the privileges which, from ths com
mencement of the present session, should never
have been denied them. t , , -. .
' In one axpecU peraap, this decision of, the
Committer ot fifteen ought to ba ;acceptci with-
out a too close scrutiny into the motives which j
prompt It, or the reasons upon which it resti. It
should be enousrh, mayhap, that th rUrhti of
Tennessee to representation In tbe National
Legislature . are final It conceded, irrespective of
the policy which , has until now deniod their
force, or the precise mode in which tardy justice
is eventually to be administered. In the judg
ment of roanr, it may be enough that Tennessee
shall no longer be excluded trom its proper
sphere ot inlluence. And certainly, estimating
thing by comparison, and measures by tir
immediate effect, the purpose of the Reconstruc
tion Committee, so-called, may merit approval.
Anxicus as tne nation is to see the noble Sta'e
which contributed a Jackson to rrtpple with
one crisis, and a Johnson to overcome the perils
of another, fairly and fully occupying onoemore
its constitutional position at Washington, tbre
will probablv be a eeneral inclination to seize
such a proposition as that wbich is imputed to
the Committee, irrespective of the objections
that may be raised to the shaoe in whtoh the
Committee's action shall finally appear.
There afe one or two considerations, however,
w hich require us to ak that a good deed shall
be gracelully performed; that a decision in itself
just and expedient shall be so rendered that it
loses nothing of its justice or expediency whon
viewed as a part of the well-weighed policy of
tbe nation.
Tennessee has a right to bo represented" In
Congress, or it has not. If right be on its side,
its Senators and Representatives should be ad
mitted, subject only to the decision of the House
as to the qualifications of the persons presenting
their credential). If right be not on its side,
legislation in its favor admits of no defense; its
Senators and Representatives have no claim
whatever to recogn'tion in either bouse. From
these alternatives we see no logical escape.
It, then, Tennessee is not entitled to a plica in
Congress, why ate we to have a bill introduced
in its favor ? The quest on is one, of constitu
tional rurht. not of the will of a Committee,
howsoever illustrious be tie fiileen gentlemen of
whom it is composed. To conce.lo that legisla
tion is Lecessarv to the admission of the repre
sentatives ot Tennessee, is to concede the whole
question at issue between tbose who hold that
the South is made up of conquered territories,
and those who maintain that tho States lately in
rebellion are i-till within the Union. A necessity
tor legislation in behalf of Tennessee can only
proceed on the hypothesis that that Slate, in
common with othr-r portions of the South, is at
present out of the Union. The just, consistent
course would therefore seem o be, to affirm by
resolution that all the Southern States have for
feited their existence as States that the whole
outh, Tennessee inoluded, has no constitutional
title to a seat in Congress and that a bill pro
viding for tbe admission of Tennessee is but the
beglnLing of a scries of measures providing
respectively lor the admission of the remaining
Southern States. Is the Reconstruction Com-
mitttee prepared boldlv to assort this wound?
Is Congress prepare I by its action to sustain
this position, whether the Commuteo declare it
or not ? ,
For, on the other hand, it is manifest that if
Tennessee is within the Union, the measure
talked ot will be a work of supereiogation. Tne
IieconstrucMon Committee has, properlv, no
thitg to say or do in tho premises, except'so far
as it may do ame to tnrow ngut upin tne for
malities observed by the Stale in respect of the
election and the qualifications of the individuals
claiming to be elected. And if Tennessee, being
within the Union, baa a right to be represented
In Coogress, why havo not tbe other Southern
States ihe sume right ? From this point of view
the ouestlon to be decided is one of m-mclnln. hv
which, the whole South is atiected njbt one of
favor which Congress or any of its committees
is at liberty to determine according to its
pleasure.
Nothing that we know of is to be gained by an
attempt to evade the points in controversv.
The issje is not one of sympathy, but of right;
and whatever tbe Reconstruction Committee
may report, we apprehend that the action of
Cor gress will ultimately rest upon some intelli
gible and well-defined trenoral principle, rather ,
tban upon an exceptional preference for Tennes
see or any other State. Why Is not the question,
so dealt with by the Committee, if its object now
1 e to promote the restoration of harmony within
the Union? The times call for frankness and
promptitude. And if partisan strife is at lat to
give place to patriotic effort, it would be difficult
to Und a better basis for conciliation than is pre
sented by tbe question of the right of tbe South
to representation in Congress. ,
The "Grand Idea" ol Napoleon In Mexico
"ibe Danger to i ranee.
From the Herald. ,
The full report of the recent of Marshal Forey
in the French Senate on the MeiU an question
is an argument in support of Maximilian
and his empire which, whether officially or un
officially presented, leads to an unfavorable con
struction of the gracious and rose-colored legis
lative address of the Emperor Napoleon. The
obligations devolving upon France in regard to
Maximilian, French citizens, and the native ad
herents to his cause in Mexico, as submitted by
Miirshul Forcy, cannot b-t reconcile:! with the
theory oi an early departure of iho French
troop. The Marsual says: "In my opinion it
would be. highly dungerous to recall onr troops
immediately;" that t'ii our arniv is recalled from
Mexico all the Frenchmeu in the couutry will be
obliged to return with it;" thut "we must con
tinue to lend them our support, and aid them to
sustain tbe power tliey nave caosen:" thai "it
may become necesary to ssnd freb troops to
Blexico;" tbat ''at least tbose which are there
mubt be kept lhnre, aud It may also become no-cesi-ary
to make further pecuulury sacrifices;"
rdu that "1 have too much esteem lor the treat
Amiaican republic to believe that It would pre
fer a republic of plunderers aud bandits in
Mexico inbtead of a monnrchy of honest men.
baicd upon the principles of civilization." i
These are tbe views of an hor.en soldier, the
original leader of th French expeditionary
corps to Mexico, and as such charged with the
deigns and the confidence of bis Emperor.
Marshal Foray understands the sttuution of
Muximiiiau, his 'ltlicultlus and bis necessities,
and the duties which by bU position, are Im
posed upon France. But, transcending in Im
portance ail these incidvatal cousiderat.em, in
the judgment of ths outspoken Marsiiul, is
"the graud idea" ot Nap ileon which underlies
this Mexican adventure. This "graud idea1" is
the alpha and omega of the Marshal's speech.
Thus the Sruperor, in undertaking this expedi
tion, "was impelled by a eraud idea," ami, "I
ask myself, has this graud Idea beeu well under
stood by the country !" and aeam, "Fiance can
not wish to incur the reproach of .having
misunderstood the grsud idea of the Umperor?'
and jet again, "should we allow a money coq
sideiatlou to jeopardize the success ot this un
dertaking, buved, as it Is, upon a grand idea of
the Emperor f" . . i
Now we know that the "nephew of hU undo"
Is a man of grand ideas yea, even "Napoleonic
idea." We have seen tome of them splendidly
carried oot, too, at home and abroad, in Paris,
at Cherbourg, in the Crimea, aid in Italy, to
the credit ot his empire and tho glory of Francs;
and we know that the grandest of all Ideas do
Frenchmen are "qloire" and "oivtoire." , Bt
what is this grand ..MexUjtu idea of NaKoloj?
Theie is neither glory nor victory in it. Accord
ing io his oiigiual letter of instructions to Mar-
' . ;..!.. : ,!
shal Forey, it Is a strong foothold of "the Latin
race" on this continent against the ambitious
designs of the Anglo-Saxon race; or, in other
words, a check in Mexico against the advancing
power ot the I'nlted States According to Mar
sbnl Forey, it is the resoue of Mexico from the
anarchy ot . republican institutions, and the
plaoina of her suHermg people under the esta
I lif bed law and order of a moasrehy. But
whatever may bo the "grand idea" of Napoleon,
it is manifest from all that has been said on the
subject on both sides, that he ba no idea of
withdrawing ihe empire lrom Mexico, whatever
be may say ol his troops, and that tbe Goverif
ment and people of the United States have no
idea of recotruizlng that empire as the Mexican
iCovernment. .
The lite correspondence between Mr. Seward
and Prouyn de Lhttvs establishes these facts
tli at the Idea pn tbe one side W that this Imperial
experiment in -Mexico must be abandond, and
that the idea on the other side is ihat Maximilian
is destined to establuh his dynasty on Mexican
soil; and thai lair promises, masterly delays,
and the chapter oi accidents most likely to
follow, will in good time leave us not even the
shadow of a Republican Government as ft pre
text tor withholding a rccegoition of the empire.
With this recognition the "grand Idea" of Napo
leon would soon be developed in the creation of
a naval depot on the Atlanne and on the PaciBo
side of Mexico, and In some isthmus line ot com
munication, by railroad or canal, securing to
Krai.ce a strong military and commercial
bale nee of power in both oeeans; and a check
in the occupation of tbe csntinent in that
quarter against any further advances of the
republican institutions or ideas ot the Anglo
An.erlcan race. ' 1
Fortunately, however, against the fulfill meat
of this "grand idea" stands tbat adverse Ameri
can grand idea of the Monroe doctrine the
fixed and irrevocable attitude of the United
States touching this European usurpation of
Mexico. The magnanimity of France in coming
to iherefcueot our next-door neighbors trom
the anarchy or institutions adoptet from our ex
ample, may be a "grand idea;" but to ns, under
ail tbe circumstances of this intervention, it Is
exceedinalv offensive. Regarding it as a move
ment agaiLst the United States, like that pro
posed some years ago bv Russia for the division
of the estates of the "sick man" ot Turkey, the
case admits of no halt-way compromise. We
may rrant a liberal term of Grace: but this
Frar.co-Austrc-Mexican empire must be removed.
and the republlo must be restored. To this end
Napoleon is bound to come to an understanding
between his prestige and his salety. The Ameri
can people shrink lrom tbe thought of a rupture
with our nn5ie nt ally, an J the magnificent ces
s on ot Lou 'Han a attaches them to the namo of
Napoleon. Let not Napoleon, however, pre
sume too far upon the past against tbu danger
ous offense of Mexico.
We desire peace with France. We heed it
and we expect it. . War between the two coun
tries at tins erMs would be disastrous to both.
But experience justifies the belief that while our
(lovcrnmcnt woul J survive the trial, the French
Empire would probably be superseded tn the
struggle, as well as the Mexican, by the republic.
From such a war England would secure tbe
woild's commerce as a neutral, and the people
of France, from the suspension of her foreign
trade, would almost certainly, from the pressure
ot their sufferings, be drawn into the fierce
redress ot the barricades. In a word, this
"grand idea" of Napoleon in regard to Mexico
is a grand mistake. It looks not to peace, but to
war with the United Rates, and the prostration
of the commerce, and industrial enterprises of
ootn conntiies. to the aggrandizement oi ring-
land, their heieditury enemy. We desire the
return of our old relations of friendship with
France; but they are simply impossible while
Maximilian and his Imperial establishment re
mam in Mexico. The abandonment of this
" errand idea" is essential to peace and the
salety of Napoleon and his dynasty.

From one bad thing to worse "
One of these tinkers offer to rebaptize the
nation, and exchange tne grand historic title of
these Unl'ed States for the appellation of Amo-
lica. Conceiving that the era ot lua'i created a
new heavens and a new earth, be hastens to dub
with a new name those ot iti inhabitants who
occupy tne tavored region that gave him birth,
Not that cither reason or fitness require it; but
then his Smith or Brown handle will go down in
history tagged on to the new designation for lha
ei allocation or a vanity as childish and as bar
baric as bts who bred the rJptiesian temple.
The first essential of a national name which is
cbosen, not springing from the soil, like tbat of
China or thill, is significance. There is a
aiten d'etre lor tbe ofheial title of the United
Kingdom a oeep purpose In the christening of

So when our fathers founded the republic, titter
weighing ail the same considerations tbat can
be urged at this day, they introduced it among
the nations oi the earth by a name closely re
lated to its birth and being, which was a symbol
ot its complex nature.
States composed the ' new nation States
whose separate and ditlering laws touched the
people under their distinct control at all noints
where liberty, ltfe, property, and the domestic

Frem the Herald.
On Vcndar last the famous Committee of
Fifteen seat to the House as an amendment to
the Constitution proposal to re-enact two
lausei of that Instrument with especial refer-
nee to the negro. This amendment was dia
uesed for three days, and on Wednesday the
House agreed, by a large rote, to postpone fur
ther consideration of the measure until the
second Tuesday in April. This has been rather
has til v interpreted as the end of the amendment.
It indicates the disposition of Bteven and Com-
paay to dodge a vote that would further excite
the public mind against their extreme views;
but it is certain! not (he end of the measure.
The spcciQo purpose of this postponement is to
keep quiet and lie low until the New Hampshire
and Connecticut elet tions are pver. The radical
leaders are not insensible to the effect thut their
crazy course has already had npon tbe Republi
can pairy; and they have now consented to
keep quiet for a little, lest a new exhibition ot
wieir viuicuue suuuiu ueieai tuc nepuuiiusa
ticket in tbe two States named. Thij action
aho shows their fear of the people and their
consciousness that their course in Congress is in
aeance oi tue popular win.
The last of tbe two elections will take place
on tbe first Tuetday in April; and on the second
Tuesday of the same month all immediate
aaneer lrom tne people being past tne raoiciis
will take up the amendment aeain, and make
another terrible ettortto strengthen themselves
acainst the boutnern people; tor that is the
purpose ot this last proposed mutilation ot the
law. It is another rid oulous little attempt to
do tho work ot the war better tban the war did
it. It is another expression of the radical fear
tbat the South is not yet sufficiently crushed tor
tbe safety ot tbe extreme news or the radical
party. All these attempts to legislate the
Southern white man do n snd the negro up are
the same. Ihe radicals base their claims to
give law to the South upon the fact that the
North conquered it in the war liut why all this
