Reconstruction Probnble Action ot the
Joint Committee.
Tn problem ot reconstruction continu?8to
be the vital question before the couutry. In
must be so until it shall Anally be solved.
There are rmraors that the Reconstruction
Committee in Congress is about to report.
What will be the character of that report
what its recommendations what its policy
we are not informed. That tome conditions,
as a prerequisite to the admission of repre
sentatives from the Itobel communities, will
be required, may be assumed as certain. The
idea that they are to walk in and take their
seats, as a matter ot right, from the mere fact j
:hat their communities inhabit a portion of j
the country which constitutes the United
States of Araeiica, is now pretty generally
abandoned. j
Some propositions have been reported lately
to the Reconstruction Committee, which pos
sibly foreshadow some of the features of the
policy to be proposnd. Among them is the
following, which' is said to be the suggestion
of Hon. Robert Dale Owen. It is in
tndad as an amendment to the Constitu
tion :
Section one provides that on aud after tuv4th
of July, l87ii, there shall be no discrimination in
the Uuiwd Mu es on account of color; but thai
all male citizens of the age ol 21 yeurs shall bj
legal voters at all election, Federal and Sta'e.
Section two provides that tor the period of ten
.years from the 4th ot Julv next, lvpres'-ntat ua
in 1 'ongres and Kiectirnl votes for 1'resi J ;nt
and Vice-President shull 1 apoorlioned iicor l
inir u the nun ber of leul voters in tue respec
tive Scutes, and alter that period by population,
a at oicseut.
Section three declares t li d there shall be no
diser. munition of civil rights from and after the
p:t--sae ot this' amendment, atttrininjr in eBVvt
the constitutionality ol the Civil Rights bill.
Section lour provides that no obi 'cations for
liabilities incurred in aid of the llehcllioa, or
compensation for i lavs emancipated bv military
authority, shall be paid 0 the United States or
any State.
To the foregoing ia attached an enabling
act, which provides that when any one ot th j
States lately in insurrection shall have rati-
Aa1 irrA nl r re nmnndmiiTita nr A o r (tail
its Constitution and laws to correspond
therewith, it shall be allowed to partici
pate in legislation, and its Representatives
be allowed to take their seat3 in Congress,
without any other terms or provisions.
Ttaia plan, it will be seen, while going fur
ther, "s of the same general character as that
proposed by fcenator Stewart, of Nevada,
and has some features in common with that
recently presented by Senator Lane, of
Kansas, and which ho declared to be in ac
cordance with the views of President Joiix
KON. It covers, first, the question ol suf
frage by a universal rule, applying North
and bouth alike, but not to take effect until
1870 ; secondly, it meets th vexed question
of the basis of representation in an equita
ble manner; thirdly, it establishes the princi
ple of civil equality throughout the country ;
lastly, it guards against any payment by the
United States, or by any State, of Rebel obli
gations or of compensation for slaves.
That come or all of these points must be
met la any proposed plan of reconstruction is
quite evident, as they really cover the only
matters in dicpute. It is possible that a less
sweeping measure may be decided upon.
Nor do we consider it as at all impossible,
that Congress and the President may
yet harmonize upon substantially the same
plan ol action. Their d fl'erences hitherto go
rather to matters of detail than to principles.
Tho Tresident himself has exacted important
fruarantees from the Rebel communities
Congress merely proposes to go still further
in the same direction. There must, there
lore, be some common ground upon which
they can aHand. For the good of the coun
try, as well as for the continued unify and
power of the great parly which by its intelli
gence and patriotism, has so far conducted
this struggle towards its ultimate triumph,
w e trust that this common ground may be
found and occupied.
The "News" on Suffrage.
Tub New York Daily Netba has ' a new in
dictment against the Republican party,
namely, that it Is opposed to the principle of
universal suffrage. It brl. gs forward, in sup
port of this charge, the fact that' the Republi
cans throw safeguards around the purity of
the ballot-box In the shape of registry laws,
and the like. As this interferes with the
Democratic principle of ''eoting early and
voting often," it ot course militates against
universal suffrage, especially the u dversaj
suflrage of the repeaters and ballot-box
i tuffem.
Another fact is, that under the recent cen
sus New York city does not get quite so
large a representation in the Legislature' as
she would like. Her population was too large
when a draft of soldiors to fight the Rebels
was to be tnade. Now, when she would con
trol the legislation of the State, it is, unfor
tunately too small. This, too, proves that the
Republicans are opposed to universal suffrage.
Fiimlly, the Republicans, as the News asserts,
favor the universal extension of the 'suffrage
simply that It may operate as an overdose
upon the body-politic, and that, in the ensalng
reaction, the basis of suffrage may be finally
fixed upon intelligence, such as the ability to
THE DAIfV EVENING TELEGKAPIT. PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY,
read and write. A read-and-write test woild
cut down the Democratic vote terribly, no
doubt ; still, we must pronounce this last charge
baseless. Inasmuch as there Is no evidence
to show that the Republicans lavor untrersil
euflVape with any such ulterior motive as the
News asserts; or that, If universal suffrage
should ouce prevail, any such reaction as pre
dicted would take place. 'Ihe first two
counts may stand, but this last will have to
be given up.
By the way. how long is It since the Newn
wtis advocating negro suffrage ?.
The Origin and licr?ss ot American
Kpfi ittialiftiii.
An inspection of history will convince any
close observer that mankind is subject to the
at tacks of a temporary mania, which we may
appropi lately term ?n epidemic. The forms
ass-unipd by tLis Aperies of insanity are as
various as those of Proteus. It may be mar
tini, mental, social, moral, or political. It may
raise crusades, Incite a series of murders, pro
voke revolutions, or give birth to some wild
religious Idea, which seems to rob men of
their brains. The immediate cause which
induces its appearance is always superlative
in Its degree. Some men get most singularly
mad ideas, some tearful and unparalloled
crime, pome total, yet unexpected destruction
of a natiral power, or some perfectly orig!nal
and unpn cedentedly mysterious faith. Tho
American levolutlon caused a republican
epidemic to sweep over Europe ; the deeds of
Count dh, Lion gave life to the Saracen
crusades; and the assassination of Henry
of Navarre caused a mania for murder to
infest France, 'i he doctrines of Mormondsm,
once propagated, sprang ready armed, witli
a host of followers, upon our people. So also
tho Fpiritualistlc teachings of Andrew
Jack6on Da via swept over our land with
frightful rapidity, and made within a few
years a multitude of converts. It Is of the
origin and progress of Spiritualism, Psycho
mancy, Swedenborgiaaisiu, or whatever
else you please to call it, or that we would
speak. ;
A recent number of the Edinburgh Quar
terly Review contained an article on '"Ame
rican Psychomancy," written in a style of
playful sarcasm, which made it extremely
readable. It treated rather of the doctriues
than of the history of spiritualism, and would
lead a foreign reader to deduce many erro
neous conclusions. Promiuent ainonr these
would be the deduction, that the number
and social standing ot the spiritualists in
the United States were very different from
what in truth i hey really are. The tone ot
the article leads us to infer that in number this
strange class of believers exceeded any spe
cial religious denomination, while their social
and political position were the highest. Be
cause Judge Edmonds, of New York, and ex,
Governor Talmadge, ot Wis onsin, em
braced the doctrine, then the greatest legal
lights of our land were members of the faith.
1 he error of such an assei tion is apparent to
our readers without demonstration.
Probably the doctrines of the Spiritualists
are well known to all, but few have an accu
rate idea of the origin of the fallacy which has
converted so many. In 1820, was bora of
humble parents.in Orange county, New York,
the father of the faith, Andbew J. Davis. In
childhood and youth he followed the decidedly
material trade of a cobbler. When he was in his
seventeenth year, after having experienced a
series of mystenous manifestations, an iti
nerant mesmerist named Grimes appeared
and inculcated the rudiments of the belief.
On removal to Poughkeepsle the village
toiler became a medium, and young Jackson
and he commenced the crusade together in
1843. He immediately visited New York
city, and there met for the first time with
Lyon and Fibhbough, two mon 'to fortune
and to fame unknown," who ware destined by
fate to become the editors of his revelations.
Feeling a fit coming on, the juvenile seer
retired into privacy, and he, with his editors,
was cheerfully employed from November,
1845, to February, 1647, in undergoing a series
of attacks of prophetic fury. The result was
a work of gigantic size, entitled ''The Divine
Principles of Nature," which is still a stand
ard with all true believers.
What the unfortunate Davis may have
been doing during these fllteen months, we
know not, but we cannot but admire the in
dustiy ot his editors. The fruit of their labors
was this grand mingling of all the infidel
writers from the age of Bnuso to that of
Stbaxjss. They laid under contiibution all
the teachers of Spinozeism, Founerism, Slmo
nianlsm, and Rationalism, 'and resorted to
wholesale plagiarism. This mad mixture
of infidei extracts fiom "Gulliver" and "Mun
chausen" is now received with all the laith
of Holy Writ by its followers. In 1848, when
the excitement occasioned by Davis' book
was at its height, the house of one Week
man, near Rochester New York, was mys
teriously ... infested , with vague " noises.
Weekuax fled, and the family of Fox
took possession pf the residence. The
sounds still continued. At length one of the
daughters of Fox, a child of twelve years of
age, whilst lying in bed with her younger
sister, amused herself by endeavoring to imi
tate the sounds which had occasioned so much
anxiety in the' place, and was greatly sur
prised to find that each of her attempts was
repeated from the walls of her bed-chamber.
"Now do as I do,?',exclaimed the younger of
the children, as she began to clap her hands
violently together. Again the blows were
duly re-echoed. The girls now called for
their mother, who, on entering the apart
ment, witnessed several repetitions ol , these
curious trials. ' Mrs. Fox presently requested
that ten knocks might be counted . on the
walls, which were Immediately given. Also,
upon request, the respective ages ot her
children were promptly and accurately ex
pressed in tbe same fashion. To the ques
tion, 'Are you a human being?' silence was
preserved; but when asked. "Are, you a
spirit?' tho answer was two loud raps. It
was finally ascertained that the knockings
pioceeded Irora the 'spirit' of a peddler, who
had been robbed and murdered on the pre
mises several years before.
A nd from these small beginnings arose that
gigantic denora'nation. It has extended with
wonderful rapidity, and now has its disciples
in every community. Of the accurate number,
or even approximate size of these followers,
we cannot speak. They may be immense in
number, or only comparatively small. We
are inclined to believe that those who are
actually spirltualit-ts number but a.foT thou
sand, while those who are tinctured with the
faith are a much larger number. The fact
that the society only supports four weekly
newspape s in ihe country, ts evidence of its
riot being so enormous as British writers evi
dently believe. We would wish that in the
new census some data might be inserted.
iue article m me vainourgn is rattier a
satire than a history. But It is eminently
calculated to show this modern mania In the
proper and ridiculous light in which it should
appear.
A Meiiited Tbiduie. It would seem
as thouph the well known benevolence of Phi
ladelphia Is at last recognized aud respected
by even those who have been constantly tra
duiing her. Ever since the conclusion of the
wr, in tact, lJlig before that event, the ladies
of our city have been accustomed to devote
then tune fo alleviating the sufferings of. the
treedmen by lurninhing them with food and
particularly cloih'ng. For this labor of cha
rity they have been exposed to the sneers of
the Democratic newspaper in our midst, and
have had all their actions viewed with contempt
by the sympathizers with the disloyal South
ern whites.
The Southerners themselves, however, havfe
seen the "beneficial results of our liberality,
and tho last n umber of Be Boio's Reoiew
contains a grateful tribute to Philadelphia
philantlnopy. When It is remembered that
De JBfju-'s is the mouthpiece aud oracle of the
best chits of reconstructed society, the com
pliment can be appreciated. The April num
ber says: '
'There is hue one Institution, however, that
cannot De too ni;;hly commeuderl. That is a
hosiiilal lor ojplmn m-cro chilnreii. It is cliietiv
supported by nn association ot Philadelphia
