COVrlLKD KTEBT DAT FOR VBMHO TKLKORAPU,
The New Coalition.
Drom the Tribune.
The fatal obstacle that bars the way to powrr
before the formidable coalition of ex-Itobcls,
Coppcrhendn, and Jolinsomzed Unionists, Is the
palpable and natural indisposition of the two
former classes to keep out of public bight and
imply vote the latter into office. It they would
do this persistently and systematically, the con
cern might possibly win, despite the discourag
ing result ot last tail's experiment In this State,
That result mislpa'ls, mainly because the Demo
cratic discomfiture was not nearly so sisrnal in
reality as It seemed. The apparent increase of
the Union majority from 70U0 to 27,000 is the
Jesuit of gigantic lrauds in the Presidential elec
tion of lb64, when Lincoln would have had,
hut tor this fraud, at least 25,000 maioriry. The
Union triumph in New Jersey last (all was won
toy the soldiers' vote, whictt her Democratic
legislators would not allow to be cast in 18u'4.
Had the soldiers voted ther.. and no Iraud been
perpetrated, Lincoln would tinvc carried the
Btate.
If the new alliance could be induced to run
Blocums and Dlxes lor every important post
and a sudirienc number might be found, by
searching inquiry it would stand a very fair
chance of immediate success. But how are you
to induce those who have to furnish ninety-nine
hundredths of the rotes to po down cellar and
stay there till they are wanted to vote f 1 1 is not
in human nature that tuey should generally do
so. They cannot, even by strenuous effort, be
Jcept out'oi the Randall Convention. How, then,
are they to resist the far stronger temptation ot
running for Coupress, for Governor, ete. Here
is Hicster Cl.vmer who determinedly opposed
the War for the Union trom first to last runninjr
for Governor of Pennsylvania apainst a War
Democrat who foupht tnroutrh that war will
:iymer decline? will bis backers rule bitn ofr?
Clearly not. All efforts to shelve him have
proved abortive; and so they will to the end. So
in Kentucky, a Copperhead who was in sym
pathy with the Rebels throughout is
running lor the only State oitice to be
illed by Reuernl vote this fall, against Hobsou,
a Union General, and he has no idea of with
drawine. Everv ex Rebel in the State will do
his utmost lor Duvall, but it is hardly possible
that many Union soldiers will vote with them.
True, in Maryland, where nine-tenths of the
Totes that can anyhow be got lor the "Con
servative Unior." ticket mtiat be cast by men
vho-e hearts and ell'orts were given to the
Rebels throughout, Montsomery lHuir, with
the ollice-holdeis' help, may be able to rule olT
B. C. Harris, and oilier such avowed, thorough
going partisans 0f the Rebellion ; but there is
scarcely another Slate in which the greater
share of the otiices will not bo claimed by those
who confidently predicted the iriumph'of the
Conlederates, or those who did their utmost to
verify those predictions. The law of gravitation
bears sway in politics as elsewhere, and renders
it morally certain that those who cast the bulk
of the votes given to any ticket will dictate its
nominations, and will not so nominate as to put
a stigma on themselves.
Indiana was exceeded by no other State In tho
Ihorouehness wherewith a majority 01 its Demo
crats were identified in feeling with the Rebel
lion, and echoed, from first t last, the pro
phecy, "You never can subdue the South." Her
lodges of "American Knights," or "Sons of
liberty," were as numerous and as well filled
as those of any ot'jer State, and they were as
openly, venomously pro-Rebel as any other.
Jiow, they hold conventions and resolve that
"the war for the Union was lust and necessary."
And the Hon. William S. Ilolman, whom they
would not renominate tor Congress in lntu,
because he was not thoroughly Copperhead,
they have now having beaten themselves by
their Copperhead experiment pone back to
and placed again on the course. They may
Win in special instances by this policy; but it Is
as likely to diseust and repel those "who voted
with them in 1864 as to draw recruits to their
standard.
The compliments paid by certain Johnson
Organs to the loyalty of the Tammany section
oi the New York' Democracy are utterly unjusti
fied. J. Wintnrop Chauler is a Tammany
Democrat; he was chosen as such to tho lat
Congress; and no man ever voted and acted
more thoroughly in sympathy with the Rebel
lion. Roth Fernando and Ben. Wood were
chosen to Congress in 1HG2 on the Tammany
ticket; though Fernando had proposed a seces
sion of this city trom the State in the interest
of the Rebellion, and had apologized to Toombs,
of Georgia, lor his inability to overcome the
police ot our city so as to send arms to the
already seceded States; while Ben. hid, through
his Daily News, been a thick-and-thin partisan
of the Rebellion trom the egg, and so remained
to tne end. We defy any lair man to deduce
from tho speeches and votes in Congress of
those members whom Tammanv Hall elected,
any purpose or wish that the Rebellion should
be subdued. The attempt, therefore, to prove
the Tim many wing of the Democracy patriotic,
to the disparagement of the other, is utterly at
ivar with the lacts.
It is a truth which everv one's observation
must confirm, that, if "the radicals" are to be
beaten this fall, the votes which overcome them
must mainly be cast by "Copperheads." He
who fancies that they are to take back seats in
the Randall synagogue, and furnish the bulk of
the capital wheieon Messrs. Weed, cowan, and
Doolinle are to operate, will tind himself utterly
mistaken.
The Unity o Geimany.
from the Timet.
' We remarked the other day that the dream of
a union of all Germany into one homogeneous
people under one Government is of ancient ori
gin, and as prevalent to-day as in the hour of
Germany's greatest enthusiasm in 1813, or the
moment the Parliament convened in the Pauls
Kirche at Frankfort. But we also gave it as our
unbiassed opinion that the success of tho plans
of the Prussian Government would not facilitate
this Union, nor accelerate the realization of this
dream ot ihe German people. Our opinion
feats on two substantial rea-ons, one of which
we have already stated, which is, that with
Prussia triumphant there would be a strong,
powerful Prussia, and the portion ot the German
people subjected to Brandenburg rule would be
con.e Prus.-ians, governed in all respects with
that spirit ot "specilio PrussiauiTu" so preva
lent among the ru ing classes of that kingdom,
and would from that moment cease to be what
they so much yearn to become, and have so
loudly protested that they are Germans. No
thing ean better illustrate the intensity of this
"hrussianisra" than a tew sentences which we
here reproduce trom the New York correspond
ence of the Berlin Krevt Zeitung, dated in this
city on June 22, and published in that paper in
its issue of July 12. We quote:
' ''The Germans in this city betrln to take sides
either for Prussia or Au trla, and that with an
cavernosa that pushes aside all intoresr in home
politics, makes opponents of party friends, aud In
duces 'Republicans' to fraternize with 'Democrat.'

disputant is uo lonrer 'Hare Johnson, 'Here Con.

Hut let these 1'bliUtinea and inouders ot the world

the wisdom ot our roval mamer and his advisers,

God blo-s the King Uod preserve tue dear fattier

The spirit that conceived and penned these
words in New York is the spirit that governs
Prussia to day, and changed the political com
plexion of the Prussian Chambers so much 'in
favor of Bismark. That spirit wants an en
lamed, an aggrandized Prussia, the equal, il not
superior, in power to France and Russia, and
the King, as the Prussian monarch, the arbiter
of the aestinles of the Continent. The idea of
being Germans, or anything ele but Prussians,
is scouted by it almost as an Insult, and the as
pirations ot the -German people tor German
unity, except under exclusive Pfusstau sway,
have nothing tj expect Irom it..
We know well enough that there are people in
rrusHia of a different cast of mind, who would
gladly, at any moment, exchange Prussian for a
German nationality, their "olack and white" for
"black, red, and gold." These constitute the
bulk ot the population of the western provinces
ot Prussia, as in Westphalia and Rhenixh Prus
sia. But tbey are powerless in shaping the
course of their Government, and not w ith6tandi ng
their enlarged German sympathies, they will
have lo follow wherever Bismark leads; and
wln re be is leading them a little incident at
Schleswig shows. Under the auspices of Prus
sian cllicials in the Duchy, an address to the
King was gotten up at the town of Rchleswig, in
which the Schleswlgians are made to express
their loyalty to the King as "the youngest
children of the Prussian monarchy." And this
was done lately, aud since the commencement
of the war a sure siro that in ourestimation of
Ptiiosian designs we were tolerably correct.
We have, however, as we already intimated,
another reason upon which our opiuion also rests.
We think that an united Germany under Prussian
control is a political impossibility. The niiir
inumiirs ot Russia at the couie events are
taking.'of which we pave samples in our Wednes
day's issue, indicate plainly, what we have all
along been convinced of, that neither Russia
nor Frnnce, nor England either for that matter,
will permit the whole of Germany to be firmly
grasped in the hands of tho Prussian mon
arch, or any other one man. With the power
of over lorty millions of Germans an indus
trious, intelligent, and, when aroused, warlike
people wielded by one man, and that man
a Biamark, would change the iace of Europe,
and reduce nearly all other powers to the
position of attending vassals. It is natural that
the thought ol seeing the grand old Germany of
the earner Hohenstautlens revived with power
to give law to Europe, inspiriting to an ambi
tious mind, but its realization is extremely dan
gerous to the independence and very existence
of neighboring nations. And this 'is the only
kind ot German unity that can be wrought out
by the complete success of Prussia under the
leadership of Bismp.rk. and it is just such a kind
of German unity which all other powers in
Europe will seek to prevent.
Let us take an almost parallel cae. A large
portion of the people tuhabi iug Eastern Europe
are of the Sclavonic race. The bulk of their
number are politically cn'.led Russians. Some,
in Moldavia, Walluchia, Bosnia, and feervia, are
nominally in Turkisn dominions. Some, in Croa
tia, Scluvcnia, Northern Hungary, (Jallieia, aud
Bohemia, are Austrian. And some, in Posen
nud to the northeast ot it. are Prussians. For
many years the idea of Pan-S!avism, just as in
Germany the idea oi Pan-Oerniauisni, was agi
tated among the Sclavonim race, tending to
wurds the ettablihmeut of one great Empire,
under the control of Russia, uniting nil provin
ces inhabited by Sclavon.ans into oue grand
country. But every power in Europe opposed
it, and the Crimean was not the iir-t war waged
to prevent even the laintest approach towards
Pun-Slavism. Aud none opposed it more
1han the Germans, Governments as well as
the people, and the latter in the most pas
sionate form through their political literature.
So long as the social and political institutions
of Europe shall approximately remain as
they are. so long as all the peoples of Europe
shall not have become confederated together
muter some form of republican govcrnineut,
lust so long the absorption of all the Scla
vonic races by Russia would be as detrimental
to the peace and material prosperity of Europe
as the union ol all Germany in the hands
ot Prussia and which wiU oppoed by all
the other powets Both are, therefore, a poli
tical impossibility lor the present. It is for
this reason, also, that we believe Prussia's
success cauuot result in the unity of Germany.
Yet, we wih and hope to see the Germaus
united, and tinder a form of government that
will at once contribute to thuir political re
generation and advance their material pros
perity aud intellectual renown, without en
dangeriug their security or provoking the
jealousy of their powerful neighbors.
The Complications of France in the Pre
sent War.
Fnrn the. Herald.
By a coincidence which seems to have a pecu
liar significance, preel cly the same opinion
with regard to Napoleon's policy in the present
war, and its possible results, was expressed at
thrpe of the leading points of the worlrt at the
tame time. The Moscow Gazelle, speaking in a
manner oilicially, with the voice of Russia,
declared that the Czar is adverse to any mate
rial change in the balance of power in Europe,
and is not content that Prussia and Austria aud
Italy should become the tools of France.
Kiissia does not choose that Venetia should bo
quietly disposed of by cession to t'rance, remem
bering that there is an Italian question
jet to be settled, into which the tuture ,
disposition of Home and the temporalities '
oi the l'ope very prominently eutor. In short, j
Russia recognizes the lack that the French ,
tmperor nas gone too iar in uis plans lor tne
redistribution of the contiaent, and his ambi
tious vie in the settlement of the complex
political questions out of which this war was
cieated, and desires to check him. The same
seutiu.ents wee expressed almost at the sa'ne
tune by tho London Times, speaking for tne
rt iLsoniinr portion of the British people, ani
ma hap lor the Government. In the columns
ot the New 1'oilt Ha-ald, where the voice trom
liii.siii and from England was since reproduced,
ttie very same views were expressed at tha
moment they were enunciated by those two
leading powuis of Europe.
Is there not something prophetic In this
fact ? Is not the idea that the tuture power of
Napoleon as a mediator and reconofruetor is
in the decline, emanating from the three most
prominent points of intelligence on the globe,
Bomethine remarkable? And how do the
tacts ot nistory, as they stand to-dav, sustain
this opinion- Russia, which of all tho powers
of Europe really holds iu her hands the bal
ance ot pomr, although quiescout and un
obtrusive, will have the German Confederation
remodelled as she pleases; that is, she wills
that Austria shall not be demolished, nor shall
Prussia obtain predominance in Germany; but
the events ot the war iu Sasouy and Bohemia
have almost nia le the auuilnlation of Austria
a settled question, aa Tar as her controlling in
tluence in Geimauyls concerned. Russia will
piobably accept the situation. England, there
lore, w ith her alliance by marriage, by kiudred
and by religion, with the ruling power iu Ger
many, will have a Inend in Prussia upou whose
good laith she may depeud incase of an iuvasion
Jioni Frauce that living terror of John liull for
Ihe last half century and tnus can pluy her
game against the overruling policy of Napoleon
with a li'tle more plucls than she has heretofore
been able to show. With Northern Germany
as an ally she will be able to put on a bold
lace In her future dealings with I'rauce. Russia
has her on game to pay, and the prize U Con.
titaiitinople.
I Wheu the question of German supremacy ig
settled, which !at approaches comoletion in
favor of Prussia, and Napoleon is involved in the
lnisine-s of disentangling the web in which are
'n wrapped Venetia, Austria, the States of the
Church, the poor oiu rope, tne extension ot nis
imnticr in the Rhenish proviuoes. the acauisl-
tion ot Sardinia, and a'.l the other atfaira mixed
up in his diplomatically muddled brain, Russia
cannot only control the arrangement of uuitod
Germany and the balance ot power in Central
Europe, with all the necessary alliances, but
can attend to her own Interests in the direction
of Constantinople at the name lime. i Whother
these thins should come to psss or not
and we presurrie not to speak with the voice ot
a prophet it seems pretty evident that Napo
leon has fired his diplomatic needle-gun a lit Lie
too high, and is likely to miss the mark for
one.
The Saratoga Races.
f Yom the World.
The equuie aristocracy of America has never
been represented by a finer congress of its kind
than is now assembled at Saratoga. For the
first day's encounter forty-one horses were
entered,' all of fhem boasting prime blood
sixteen that of Lexington, Dine that ol Light
ning, and three that of Lapldist. Down for the
second day we find fifteen among the twenty-six
referred to the Lexington stmin, and among
the other eleven, which all seom to be respecta
' ble animals, several sired by Glencoe, Eclipse,
or Bslrownle. The nominations for the third
day include teveial specimens of the last three
parents' offspring, one of LapidUt's, and two of
Lexington's. For the fourth day, which opens
with a selling race, we have not yet the names.
Those tor the filth day are twenty-live in num
ber, distributed among the more famous sires
in the proportion ot nine to Lexington, four to
Liuhtniug, three to Eclipse, two to Lapidist,
and oue to Bairovniie. For the sixth day's
. races we have no naniesf but it is not piobable
that any infirior i'orses will show their heads
there.
The interest felt in this Saratoga meeting, and
the widelv diversified classes of peoplo whoshow
it, are proots that the noble science ot horse
manship is loosing up. Mauy an American not
yei grey can recollect when horse-raoers and
Kabba h-breakers used to be prajed lor m the
suuie brcatt, when the little boy who ran away
from his parents, in the more Juvenile library,
Hlwavs used to at;end matches immediately
beiore taking a skill' on M.imluy and getting
drowned. There may bave been some palliation
lor the preiuaice, but it has met with a rapid
death during the last few years, and noUiing was
wanted to give it its final dismissal but thesight
of so many horses of lirst-.clas character asseru-
; pied trom distant quarters ot the United mates
i by the stimulus, but rather for the reputation
, tliau lor the pecuniary rewards, offered in the
i Saratoga races,
Apart trom the merp accident of betting,
whii'h will occ'iir in all times and countries
i w-re trials oi skill are not absolutely pro
hibited, we regard every rcuniou of this kind
as an occasion ot numingled good to the
American people. It reveals to us our exact
state ot strength iu oue ol tho most important
panicutais wuicu can concern a civilized
I nation; gives the experts in one of the most
valuable ol our national manufactures a Ire-
I qnf ut opportunity to compare notes, aud affords
i luem a tiibunal whose laurels shall be worth
j all the acquisitions of science and experience,
all the expenditure ot pains and money which
; it iook. to w in tuem.
The breeding ot line ho'ses
presents itself as
rtauce to every
i a duty ot paramount importance to every
nation which woutd cultivate its ari9 and pre
serve its Ireedom. We need not imitate Con
gressional orators, and go back to chaos and
"Dana's Cyclopfuia" tor classical illustratiDus of
the usefulness to man ot that animal whose
utility has been predicated in the opening
renteuce of every schoolboy's composition.
Whiu we particularly desire to suggest is the
horse's value to ourselves.
Lpon this sioe of the Mississippi, his speed
and power seem to be in constant requisition:
but beyond the river stretches a iar lnimenser
rcaion than we already occupy, where he is a
pr me necessity ot human existence a resion
whose title we hold, but which shall never truly
belong to us until too nation of hoiemen
already dottinc La vast plutcaus and cations with
their corrals have spread over its entire leneth
and breadth. Doubtless the Pacitic Railroad
rather londs, for there must eventually be seve
ralwill orm the graud atterial eystetii Through
which the blood oi travel and of traffic shall go
lorth to vitalize this magnificent waste; but the
capillaries by which all the deep seated tissues
ot our social and commeicial systems must be
nouri-heo, are the roads aud budle-puths upon
which horses can travel.
A large poition oi our national territory can
never know any otber menus ot communication.
'1 ho country called -'tbe Flatus," occupying, in
rough fl2ure, an area of 10QO miles ions by GUO
bread, in the course oi nature must always re
niaiu virein to the plough. The country of the
Hioux, Airarahoes, Cheyennes, and Camancnes
may be cleared ot those treacherous nomads;
but one might as soon attempt to turn tha
Tartar steppes into a Ilollund kiichen-garaeu as
the plains into a larming land like that or the
Western prairies, or the valleys of the Middle
States! . The intrequency ot rain, the character
ot the S'dL, and the distance between the lare
rivers, must prevent this region lrom becoming
valuable ns arable land; while every advantage
ol climate uud spontaneous lertility fit it for the
eraicr's purposes. For the raising of any kind
of stock, to the horse breeder, the dairy-man,
the beel-packer, aud the sheep-larmer, the plains
are an exhausliess area of wealth; and whenever
it stall be developed, the hotse will be as indis
pensable an ugent in the accomplishment of the
eud as the human pioneer, who must ride him
over millions ot acres where a railroad cannot
supoort itself, but where he cau add Immen'e
yearly returns to his own wealth and that ot the
nntion.
The necessity of a fine breed of horses to our
political existence has been sullicientl.y demon
strated during our late war. While it is not
supposable that such prices as were otfered by
our Government lor its cavalry mounts could
have called into if s service any first-class animal
w ho was not sold for vice, and while we make
all allowance lor the frauds of contractors, it
slill seemt astonishing that quite such bad
horses ns were the case should be furnished to
our soldiers in the held. Few forced marches
occurred during any campaign in which the
roadside was not dotted with the expiring car
cases ol miserable screws, who had yielded to
glanders, spavin, and hide-bound, the breath
which could not be accelerated . out
of them by spur or musket-bull. Toe
great grievance of the army, for whole
corps and campaigns together, was the
wretched quality of the trausportatiou. JNo
army can be said to be mobilized until its can
non and its sabres can start, so that much of
the time, save as a force ot observation, our sol-ciit-rs
might 'aa well have been In Wa-ihinsrlon
ns further south of Mason and Dixon's. There
cun be no doubt that our earlier disasters and
much of the painful slowness of our struggle
were owing to the superiority of the Confederate
horse and horsemen over our own. Had we met
the Southern cavalry, man tor man, with such
riders as those of California. Colorado, and
Nebraska, horse to horse with such animals as
they bestrone, we should have reaped the full
fruits of many a victory only halt improved, and
converted the ill-fortune of other fields besides
Winchester.
From everv point of view, the interest in
hoise-raisinc. manifested by such reunions as
those of Saratoga and Paterson; to a iavorablo
sien. We do not expect to see our next war
tind us In a position where both steeds and dra
eoons have to be bred before we can mount our
men. The stimulus which has brought about
these valuaole Usts and exhibitions of our
strength iu the. horse respect, which they in
turn pass on to every farmer or amateur who
has taste and talent for ihe most elegant and
scientific branch of stock-raising, w ill not die
out untd cur whole country is settled by a
thriving population, with ..thronged avenues ol
communication.
We w ould suggest to the congress of horsemen
at Saratoga this week that, it they have any
formal meeting, an opportunity 6ball be given
for the general expression of opinion upon the
nubleet of the proposed duty on blooded animals
Imported froni abroad. It anything could be
expected to move Congress it must ne sucn a
protest as nil nersons interested in tho itnoiovo-
inent of our stock, at least, silently feel, uttered
in sucn a vo no or authority as is at tne com
nisnd of the most respectable and iurlueutial
oouy wuieu lias ever assembled to consider tue
nntionil mbiect of eaulue h gh-bn edius
We believe it possible, In process ot tltne, to
create I lood-horse from such stock as we now
have, by skill tn selection and propagation,
throughout our entire) Union. Tne(muitang,
eveu under the Indian's starvation regimen,
possesses many of the admirable qualities which
cnaractenio the Arab las first i imported into
Lneland, and bas been most unaccountably
passed by by our breeders in their experiments
st coupling lor an original and flrst-clais strain.
But the importation ot horses already high-bred
lor geneiations back, is a great economical
measure, of the same nature as the shipping of
beet-essence and concentrated coflee in place of
sending the cattle in pens and the berries in
bulk. We introduce, in a lineal descendant of
the Darley Aiabian or the first Eclipse, the
condensed excellence of a century's succesion
of sires. We avoid the failures of the same
period we create and widely diffuse at once a
race which it might have taseu a ft. 11 lon?er
period to cultivate iu isolation. This, to be
sine, Is a matter of no consequence, save as
worthy of reprehension to the Tribune and the
Society for the Incrense of Labor generally ;
but we fancy that Mr. Alexander, and the rest
at Saratoga, will not look at it in the same
light.
, JFalr Play.
From the Daily Ac.
The President, in signing the joint resolution
purporting to restore the State of Tennessee to
her lelations to the Union, has practically ad
vanced the work of reconstruction without com
mitting hinisc'l to any indorsement of the radi
cal theory. His message to the House relieves
him from any share ot responsibility for the
course pursued by Congress, and while it ex
poses the absurdity of the Congressional action
in the premises, it fully explains aud jus titles
the act of affixing the Executive signature to
the resolution.
Mr. Johnson too well appreciates the import
ante of seeming to the Southern States a loot
bold in the iutioual Legislature, to become
unnecessarily au agent in deieaiing any move
ment that tends towards that consummation.
It the radicals, by sophistries and -non sequilurs,
come to a conclusion acceptable io nun, ho is
not bound to reject the conclusion because of
their bad reasoning. .Nor will the Southern
Eeoplc rcluse to be reinstated in their right
ecause it comes to them )n connection with
frivolous legislation. The joint resolution Joes
nor, so iar as the merits, the law, and the con
stitutionality ot the case are concerned, affect
the political sutus ot Tennessee more than an
expiession of opinion by any assemblage of
irresponsible parties; but if it have the edect ot
removing radical opposition to the admission
ot her representatives to their Congressional
seati.lt will have accomplished a beueticent
result. We accept, therefore, tho result as we
would accept restitution of stolen property,
without caiiug much to argue with the thief as
to the legitimacy ot the moral influences that
induced him to surrender his plunder,
but, now that Teunes-ee has been restored to
her relations to the Federal Government, how
j C1,u Congress consistently, or with any show of
J Justice, reject tbe claims of other Siaies that par-
ticiiiitea in tne neneuionr v nat bas Tennessee
done that she should be more tavored than her
sisters? lias she ratified the amendment to the
Constitution proposed by the Thirtv-ninth Con
gress? No otliciul statement to that effect bas
been received at Wasbinaton. On the contrary.
the President states that "unofficial iutormation
lioni most reliable sources induces the belief
that the amendment has not yet been constitu
tionally sanctioned by the Legislature ot Ten
nessee." it congress has been trapped into a
lii'ee position, it should not seek to evade the
inevitable consequences of its folly and DreciDi-
tatiou. Brownlow's falchood cau be no excuse
for Congic-sional injustice. The simnle tact
asserts itself that Tennessee bus been' admitted
to representation without having ratified the
proposed amendment. Shall the National
Legislature discrimina'e between the several
Southern States? U it not bound to extend
equal terms to all ? Is it not imperative upon
the Central Government to measure its relations
with the South with impartiality?
it win not do to urse that Tennessee's DO"ition
ot priority is based upon the mendacity of her
Governor. That would be placing too high a
premium upon falsehood. Nor is it Dossible tor
Congress, having admitted the representatives
of that State, and duly installed them in office,
to reconsider the ioint resolution that brought
them there. And still the fact stares the coun
try in ihe face that Tennessee has resumed her
relations to the Union without having udonted
the proposed amendment.
What is to be done? What does goodfailh
demand? What does,' equity insist on ? What
does the honor and dignity of the Republic

thau this that Ihe Southern States be placed
upon an equal footing. Tnat favoritism be
repudiated. That the lying despatch ol a radical
