The Le8on of the Massacre.
From the Tribune.
Dreadful as were the riots at Now Orleans,
tbcre Is a dread which they surest far greater.
Those scenes ot blood and dcaih have a more
terrible etgntlicance when we reflect that the;
were not exceptional, that they too faithfully
express toe spirit ot a stronar class at the South,
aud its Northern friends, aud that Uioy are ttio
result of a national policy. We should attach
little impottauce toasinule outbreak, If there
was reason to believe it as due to local causes,
but the couviction is iorced upon us that New
Orleans means the whole Souta, as Presided
tially reconstructed, and we shudder to think of
the future.
W hen the war ended, and the South, prostrate
on the Dattle-ue'd, lilted up Its hauds and im
plored mercy of its c.nqjerors, wo, too, pleaded
In its benalt. That lor tour years it hail toutftn
against the Union with a teioeity which aliens
nun lit have been ashamed ot; mat It hw im
posed upon the country a vast debt which g'iio
ratlous tinhorn would be heavily taxed to pay;
that it had torlelted every rii?ht it, formerly pos
sessedall ibis we rerLeuiboied, but we did nut
forge? that on oar part we had t'.)iii;ht and con
quered ihpse eii mies 10 keep them forever our
conntomen. To retain the Soui hern States 1u
the Onion the war had been wngel and won,
and, not alarmed by the I'uble of the man
who warmed the viper in his bosom, wo de
sired the. Government to win the South to the
Uuion by a liintrnnnimous pardon rather thin
to bind it by cliuius ol rear. Then we urued
universal amiiosly, and with it, with equal ter
or, universal suHnine. lhe first aioue has
raised vhe enemies ol the Union to their ancient
power; it has given, back the whio into their
Lands, and alreurtv in New Orleans they have
grasped the sword, but what has it done lor
the triends of the Union in the South? The
whito men are tn a powerless minority, and t jo
loyal blacks, although nominally tree, are naked
aud deieiiseless, w ithout a voice in tue 'Jo vera
mcut, abandoned to the very men who be?au
the war to maintain and extend the stave sys
tem. Tnis may be called mercy, but it is
cruelty. It is p inishmeut to the'loyul; it is
reward to the Irntors. The Bced th.rs sown has
sprung up in poison flowers over all theSuUth,
and ripened in the riots ol New Orleans.
Universal suilrage would have destroyed the
cause of all quarrels. When the war ended,
the South expecxd impartial suiirage to be
required, and would have i-ladly agreed to it.
Too glaJly would nine-tenths of the leading
lie be i a have purchased amnesty by this simple
concession, lor who could have thought that in
common lu'tice the Government would have
given less reward to its true aud consistent
Iricnds; would have required less lor its own
honor and ihe imetests of hj inanity. When it
culpably laiied to in?iit that the risht of irau
chi&e to all loyal men should be the precedent
ot forgiveness to traitors, it surrendered all to!
moral and nearly all the legal powers it pos
sessed over the Rfbel States. It abandoned
every po-ttion ot strength, till to-dny it stands
as the apologist lor Rjbelnon and the delender
of Rebels. But it has not discouraged the iriends
of Impartial sutlrage, nor canted them to aban
don their work. It never will; we are resolved
to have it, and the New Orleans massacres are
the strongest proof that it is the oniy hope tor
the restoration ol the South and the peace of
the Union.
The Louisiana Convention had broken no
law, or it they had they were willing to have
the case adjudged in the . courts. But the mere
suspicion ot an effort to obtain the franchise tor
the blacks, peaceful ss it was, aroused the worst
passions ol slavery, and, assured that the Gov
ernment would not interfere, the mob resolved
to make a blood v example 01 the reformer, and
teach them that such a Conveutiou could never
be held in any Southern State. Tbi is the
result of paraoning traitors without enfran
chising Union men. Hid the treedmen been
given the right to vote, its exercise might have
led to disturbances at the polls, similar to the
partisan rights which have always occurred; but
this general conspiracy to establish a rein
of terror throughout the South could never
have been organized. Now, there are but two
courses, either we must forever submit to see
the Rebel poer dominanr, and the loyal blaeks
reduced to the conduion of serls, or we must
continue to demand their rights. To the dis
grace we can never yield; never, never wai the
duty ot working for universal rights more sacrsd.
We have tried a policy which has disuouored
the nation; it has made Sheridan the mere lieu
tennnt ol a Rebel oilieer; it has murdered the
Union men ot Louisiana; it has proved to be
the parent of revolution and dca.h. Let us
adopt the true policy. Let us combine the two
principles of universal amnesty and impartial
sutlmge, and we establish peace. Continue to
divide them, and though we may still escape a
war, we are certain of continued trouble.
The Ocean Telegraph A Fair Field and
No Favor.
from the Timet.
The reading public cannot, as yet, be con
gratulated on tl.e fuluoss, the duspatch, or the
value ol the intelligence from Europe via the
cable. The unlortuuate break in the St. Lasv
rence submarine wire, the employment of sailing
vessels in place of that necessary telegraphic
link, aud the rush of private messages, have
doubtless all Combined to cheat, the expectant
public of fuller and more trustworthy reports.
We see It stated in the Canada papers that on
Wednesday last Lord Monck was in recpipt of
despatches Irom the Colonial Secretary in
London (Lord Carnarvou), and that Lord
Jionk was enabled to acknowledge these
despatches the same day. The pieaent
telegraphic arrangements, including the tariff
of charges, are merely provisional. Aud
it Is perhaps premature to bocome querulous
over the earlv working ot so great aud novel na
enterprise. There are one or two points, how
ever, on which, alter duo time has boeu given
the directors to set their machinery in order,
the directors will do well to ponder. The first
at these is that an end be put to the putferv ot
individual' connected with the enterprise. The
second is, tbat the press of thw country, which,
through its aeeut, will be lar the largest aud
most profitable contributor to the Company's
treasury, shall not have its messages shoved
adde for any class ot private despatches. We
do not, of course, mcluueiu the hitter des
patches on Government, aecouut, either Ameri
can or British; but special commercial and
financial advices for operating purposes.
The press will very promptly see to it that
any wallio of this sort carried on against tho
public Interest shall not thrive; and any com
pany that Bhould attempt to lend itseli thereto
will very speedily be damned. When the cable
Is once In thorough working order, the leading
Journals of the country will take probably
among them not less thtn five to six hundred
pounds sterling of despatches d-uly, besides their
Individual syecisl telegrams. This will Involve
a yearly tax all accruing to the Company of
at least a million collars in gold. For such a
ub a sum, lair, regular, prompt, and ready
service will be demanded.
Without putting tor ward an y special grievance
sullered thus far, it is is as well, perhaps, to take
advantage of the interval between the opemni
and the uor'itvq of the line, to say what will be
expeoted by those who have the responsibility
of BUppljiDg the public with intelligence An
association like that of the Press, prepared to
Hpeud a million a .year tor early news, would
have little dilliculty, if neeessitrv. In finding the
capital to procure it. at no distant dav, through

will piobably impress upon the Company the
Consideration that Intelligence procured aud

And we ar bound to wait patiently until tbey

The Test Oath.
From the Daiifi JV'tic.
It has been demon'tratcd thit the fiuallflca.
Hons of Senators and Representatives which are
prescribed by the Constitution cannot be varied
by Act ot Congress. The Test act which pro.
scribes an additional qualification, is therefore
unconstitutional in this retried.
No other argument should be necessary to
asuro the repeal of any law. Time was when
the American people disputed among themselves
about tho meaning of the Constitution, but they
all, except the abolitionists, agreed that the
Constitution must bo obeyed. It was venerated
In the halls of Congrers and in the assemblies
ol the people ns the supreme law of the land.
.Now the Coiihtitution, biokcnand slishted, must
bee lor support the poorest beggar made by
the civil war. Yet uever moe than now, a:
lea-t iii time of pfacc, was the authority of the
Constitution more necessary "to fottn a more
p llect union, ettablish justice, insure domestic
tranquility, provide for the common defense,
promote the general welfare and secure the
blesuig9ol liberty to ourselves and our pos
terliy."
The country has been rent asunder, and groat
States have, iur lour years, confronted each
o-her In war. One party nas succumbed, and
there may be those who lmacino that the outh
can and ought to be held as a suiueatcd pro- I
vhice. But, consigning tbat barbarous tolly to j
its proper limbo, how can all the Sta'es meet ,
aeain to lorm a more perfect Union and insure
domestic tranquillity? On wliatcommon ernund -
01 sentiment, ol right, ol compact, or of law can i
they ever staud together ? On nothing but the
Constitution. It Is to this alouo that each party ;
can sacrifice its resentments. It is this alone
that each can freely acknowledge as the proper
standard ot their rights, the equitable bond of !
ution and the supreme law over all. This alone j
furnishes a certain rule that will oe obeyed on
one siie if obeyed on tho other, 111 spito ot all
memories and all passions, until the pa.-sious, at
first held in cneck by 11 senso 01 justice, shall,
under the influence of time and equal laws, give
plife to the leeliugs of onimon interest.
national aims, and fraternal concord, which are j
the firmest ligaments of ULion. j
A nation plunged in civil war emerges from it j
undei the reigu ot force. Its first duty to itself 1
is to restore the rcigu of law. Thames to the
Prcsidei t, we have made some proeress in that
work; Mil it will not he complete until the j
people shall require the Government to observe, j
wit u exact lideiity, every provision ot the Cou
stitut on the law of laws.
The tremeudous power ol the Federal Govern
ment has just proved i;elt to be irresistible at
home, whatever it may be abtoad. It it is re
strained by no law, poiiuiar liberty, 111 le.-n then
the rights of the Suiiee, lies at its mercy. To dav
it s an enmiie of fanaticism to tyrannize over
one portion of the people. To-morrow a reac
tion iLay come, aud nnotoer taction may crush
the liberty of its adversaries. Tho struggles oi
parties lor the possession of such a power will
be waged with desperation. They will not long
be content with the ballot.
The aword, once the euard of our frontirs,
has shoun itseli as the arbiter of our domestic
politics. This use ot it, if habitual, soon turns
the sword into a scptre. It will come into
habitual use it the supreme law is habi
tually disregarded. The civil war has be
queathed to the country manv elements ot vio
lence. The Diiblic mind has become familiar
with the reien of force, and has learned to ap
prove it lor the sake of a cause. War has tilled
the land with corruption aud demoralized popu
lar sentiment. The old standards ot richt and
01 law have disappeared amid the contusion ot
intestine strite. Upon what "platform" can the
pood ot all the laud unite to restore the supre
macy ot law and repair thu bulwarks of civil
liberty ? Not upon theories of government; not
upon a transient and disputed policy; not upon
the questions of a civil war; riot upon thenesro;
not upon a party name; but upon the Constitu
tion. When the people shall ordain that evrrv
political question shall be brouebt to the "test"
ot tne Constitution, and that uo inconsistent
test shall be enforced, then will the institutions
01 republican liberty settle again on their old
and sure foundations.
But, a-tde from the paramount Importance of
observing the Constitution, the exclusion of
Senators and Represf utativea duly chosen by
the Legislatures and people ot States regularly
within the Union, merely because tho persons
chosen have takeu the part of the South 111 the
late civil war, is a measure full ot mischief aud
barren of good. All experience proves that
political test oaths tue the most odious and yet
tl.e least efficient means of guarding a govern
ment. Tho facility with which Senator Patter
son took an oath of allegiance to th" Confede
rate Government, and turned his baok upon it,
and the approbation accorded to his conduct by
the Kenate, may serve to illustrate the general
sense ot mankind respecting the political value
ol compulsory oaths, or else the laxity of morals
which these common devices of civil war induce.
But it is not the oath merely that we would
sienalize as the mother of mischiet here; It is
the p-rtentou3 tact that all the Statei and
people of the outh are lorbldden to choose
representatives who concur with themselves in
sentiment, and who are endeared to them
by common struggles and perils in the pat.
li the electoral bodies preier such men a tho
oath does not disquslity, lue oaru is needless.
It is only when 11 serves to deteat their volun
tary choice that tho law is operative. The
first, though not the greatst objection to such
legislation is that it cannot attain its proteased
object. Among candidates who ean take the oath
the electors will, of course, choose those who
concede most to their wishes. These may bo
pliant demagogues who have been Unionists
lor protit, and who will become anything lor
office. Ilaviug no iniluenco with Southern
constituencies, tbey will pander to the pas
ioas of tue most numerous class of the
people. Conscious that the past has placed
a burricr between them and the electors
on whom they depend, they will pass
all moderation in the future advo
oacy of local pretensims. Or, in a lew years
they will he suoplauted by youna men who can
take the oath because tney were boys during the
war, and who, to hereditary secessiouism, will
add resentment inflamed bv the exclusion o:
their trieuds and countrymen from posts of
honor. Thus there will soon be Sou'.hern repre
sentatives in Congress more unfriendly to na
tional interests than ihoe who have made dis
astrous trial of hosuhty during a long and
unsuccessful war. A tct oath Is the most lilmsy
as well ns the most irritating contrivance to
bridle opposition. But when the S mthern
people perceive a design to exclu'lo their most
able aud efficient men irom Congress, they will
know that they are not themselves to be ad
mitted to a fair share ol power. Wnen tho ex
clusion is tor acts in w hich they have, uearl.v
all, zealously participated, they will feel that it
is the entire South whiMi is placed under a
tlisgraeetul ban. It their attachment to the
Union is now suspected, what wdl iheir loel
hies become under this Injury aud this
iDsult? Lest they should inadvertently over
look such exasperating eircurustauces, we are
by the Test act to provoke an immense array
of talent. Influence, and ambition iu the South
to the perottual saltation of discontents. Bv
throwing open tho doors ot Congress to all
who can be elected, we eullst the ambition of
the South on the national side. The mor able
and aspiring a man may be, the mora hope he
will nave of advancement lu the Federal coun
cils, and tho more will his seltish mstiucts be
engaued to cultivate national sentiment among
his people. But if the most influential char
acters are exoluded irom Congress, aud branded
with disgrace, the most vehement passions of
our naturo will, impel them to use a oanaerouf
Influence over a people who will sympathize
with their complaints, Lealers and people,
encouraging each other in chronic discontent,
will have a standing wrong to avenge when
opportunity oilers. Let us hope that, If thus
piovoked and tempted, they will prove to be
wl-cr and better than other men.
The real questio n is whether we are to have
a Irank and durable peace between tho North
and b'outh. We propose to admit the Southern
States o a part cipation ot Federal power. Wo
will mil'er them to elect Senators and Represen
tative. They are to posse-s power and Influence
sadly diminished, indeed, but substantial still.
Then we are to keep upon the statute-book an
net wbcb assails the South and the Constitution
at once a reboot civil war a denunciation, a
fuovocation, an insult to tho cherished refl
ections of a people whom we have left only
recollections to cherish. We will ackuowlc tee
their rieht to represntation, and then forbid
them to choose representatives according tothe
Cons'itution. This paltering style of tvranny is
galling to the vanquished ant) dsngcro'.is tor
the victors. This is not peace. It Is not union.
It is not thus that wise statesmen would pacify
a distracted country. We should Irankly traat
our late loes as countrymen and friends, and
make with them a solid, durable peace, by
lojally observing our own Constitution. The
Constitution is p:nce.
Tte 'ew Otlenns Kiot The Radical
Game 1 ho Impeachment of President
Johnson.
From the Jierald.
Failing in Congress to carry out their revolu
tionary schemes of reconstruction, in conse
quence of the stout resistance of Pierldent
Johnson, the baflled radicals have evidently
resolved upon a system ol bold and desperate
expedients for the instigation of mobs and riots
in the South, whereby to maintain their ascond
ancy among the Union war elements of the
North. Southern "Rebl mobs" and riots
aitainst Yankee, Southern white Unionists and
negroes are the very things now most urgently
required and desired by Northern radicals for
their electioneering purposes. How else can
they satisfy the masses ut the North that the
late rebellious people of the South areas bitterly
lebf-lliotis as ever, and as until to be trusted in
the Government ns when Lee was pushing the
columns ot AicClellau 00 u the Chickabomluy,
or w hen Bragg was lulmiuating his proclama
tions in Kentucky ?
In this view, the Hon. Mr. Washhurne, of
Illinois, has prepared a lull and elaborate report
ot bis investigation of the latr onslaught of
the "poor whites" ol Memphis upon the poor
bn.ck ot that place; aud we have no doubt
thu!, as elect. oni cring capital ugulnst Southern
Rebels, Northern Copperheads,' and John-on
coiiterviitives, Mr. Washourne's report will oe
M'f rl. irl 11 n lithmMtnl v mi Mm uiiinui htr pi htul s
oiiitors, iioni Maine to Caliloruia. And the S
inoie these riot-inciting radicals South can pro- I
vokje these outbreaks of Southern w bites against I
luMttes, aboiiuoni.-ts, and ncnoes, me better
tLey will Bervc tne puiposeof Thaddeu.i Stevens
and his co-laborers. Their working political
cubital has beeu una must stili be made up irom
such materials. But it is apparent, also, that
Horn these laie New Orleans riots we may look
lor a case to be uiad? up lor the imppacament
ol President Johnson. This extrerue measure
of ladical hostility was more than once hinted
at during the late session of Congress; but the
expeiiuient was suguesiive ot great danger 111
view of the approaching Congressional elec
tions. If, however, by a general hue aud cry
against Andrew Johnson, as a cui'ederate of
krocious Southern Rebels and sympathizing
Northern Copperheads, the.-e coming elections
cau be turued uuaiust him and a radical ma
jority cun be secured in the uet Congress, thee
we may prepare lor this threatened case ot"
impeachment.
The Federal Constitution declares the House
ol Representatives "shall have the sole power of
impeachment." As "oi l Toad" detlnes it, in
other words, the Houte is the "grand iuque3i''
tor the indictment of relractory uud obnoxious
Federal ollice-holders. The Constitution lur
ther ordains that "the Senate shall have the
sole power to try all impeachments;" that when
the 1 resident ot the United status is tried the
Chief Justice shall preside;" that "uo person
shall be convicted without the concurrence ot
two thirds of the members present;" aud that
'judsment in cuses ot impeachment shall not
extend further than removal from ottice aud
disqualification to hold and enjoy any ollice of
honor, trust, or protit und-r the United States;
but the party convicted shah nevertheless be
liable to indictment, trial, judgment, and
puuibLment according to law."
Now, we kuow tnat ihe radicals of the present
Congress have the will and tha necessary
mulority in lhe House and the two-iairds required
in tho senate for the impeacbtueut ot Andrew
Joiiii'ou. It was uot expedient during tue late
session 10 move in this matter, because it might
react 10 the advantage of President Johnson iu
tho coming elections lor the next Congre-s.
But let the radicals get safely throutrU this
contest, aud shortly alier the reassembling of
the frxiniue Concurs, iu December, wo shall
uoubtlers hear of charges of impeachment
ogainsi the Pi cs idem by the House.
A leadiii'.' radical orean thus foreshadows the
frobatte bill ot indictment in reference to the
ate New Oileaus riots: "Tue more evidence we
accumulate, t be more we art convinced ot the
justice of the ludcment that thp President mtit
be held d'recily responsible lor al! tuat he has
done in New Orleans;" that "he engendered the
spirit which broke forth iu riots, murdered
loyalists, aud finally raised the i.'onlederate
flag;" that said riots "are the result ol tho Presi
dent's policy in Louisiana," and a "fi'.ting sequel
to his policy in Tennessee, w here the military
authorities are prevented from punishing the
authors ol the massacre at Memphis;" that tho
Piesidi nt began Ids late chapter ot' usurpations
at New Orleans, Julv 2, "by menacing Governor
Wells, a Governor ol a sovereign State;" mat
tnis lawless uuu uespuiic worn. continued
by deposing him, and to maKe the work surer,
b placing the army at the disposal of a Rebel
oflicer." Alter some other specnications, the
radical organ in questiou asks, "Do wee uot s-e
this man (Presideut Johnson), while clamoring
ot:uiiirt usurpation, periormiug himself the very
highest usurpation when it suits his purpose ?"
Surely here ure facts and charges enough, and
ot suilicienc giavity, tor a radical impeachment
01 the party licensed. Preposterous as these ac
cti'utious tiiay be, what is the diderence to the
party accused if hi accusers are beut upon his
removal, and have the power In Congress to
entry out their de;iua-i? The radicals pro'ess
to be very sanguine of carrying the aoproaeinng
Congressional elect'ons, .substantially as they
cained the elections of 18tU. II they are sue
cessfui to this extent. 01 even in securing u
majority in the next House, there will be rea
son, we' sav, to lear the fullest developments of
their revolutionary schemes with the reassem
bling ot the present Conercss lu December, be
ginuing with the impeachment of PresiJeui
Johnson. This, therefore, is now one ot tho
questions lo bo considered by tue people in view
of the lust approaching fall elections lor the
next Congress.
