WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 18G0. Soldiers' Bounties. The action of the Government officials with reference to the Increased bounties voted to our soldiers by Congress, at Its last session, is Inexplicable on any other theory than that of a persistent design to defer their paymeat to the last possible moment. For awhile It was pretended that Congress had made no appro priation for the payment of these bounties, and on the strength of this the Democrats endeavored to manufacture a little political capital with the soldiers. We have now before us a Democratic electioneering card, on which a soldier is represented as present irjg himself at a paymaster's office, and ask ing for his bounty, when the reply Is made : "I am very sorry, but Congress has made do appropriation for you!" But this falsifica tion of the facts in the case not proving a profitable political investment, it is now ac knowledged that Congress duly appropriated the money for the payment of these bountias, and the excuse for further delay Is found In certain "regulations" made by the Department witb reference to the presentation of the claims. These "regulations" are rare speci mens of official stupidity. They provide that "all applications shall be filed within tho period of six months from the 1st day of October, 1868, and, before any payments are made, shall be classified by regiments, bat talions, or other separate organizations; and no applications filed after that period shall be settled until the former shall have been paid." This will delay payment for six months more. What possible necessity is there for classifying all these applicants by regiments, etc.? The Department has the official muster rolls, and can refer to any soldier's name at a glance. Why not pay each man's claim as he presents it ? The soldiers need the money now. The winter is coming on, and many of them have families to support. Congress has made the appropiiation, and the money is in the treasury. Why is it not paid to them ? There is no sufficient cause or Just excuse for the delay. In this connection we might refer to the silly invention of the opposition to the effect that Congress, at its last session, appropriated larger bounties to the colored soldiers than to the white. This lie is paraded in all manner of shapes. The facts in the case are well set forth in a contemporary as follows : "Soldiers of 1801 (when all were white) re ceived uo bounty at Qrt, but in 1HG4 thev were asked to rc-enlist, and received : "First. $100 bounty (by subsequent enact ment) lor ttietr three years' service. "Second. For their additional service they received $300 bounty, and from cities, States, counties, and borough11, sums ntneiup from SjOI) to $1000, as an extra douceur. These men served until the end of the Bebellion. "Soldiers ot 1802 received $100 bounty iroin the Government, and, in a lev cauvi, bounty from home. "Soldiers of 18G3, while and black, received $100 bounty from the Government, and addi tional bouuiie: and "Soldiers of 1804 received $300 bounty from the Government, and additional bounties. "Some black soldiers received no bounty what ever, particularly those who had been slaves. The law is to correct the ncsjlect of the Govern ment, and to equalize the status of the soldiers ot 1802 and 1863, and the blacks who received no bounty. Their right to such bounty must be showu by their discharge papers." The True Policy of the Southern States. A foreigner, looking at the present course of the Southern States, and having no Interest whatever in the question involved, would accuse the late Rebel leaders of the utmost political dotage in pursuing the line of con duct to which they have so far adhered. Un influenced by any of the exciting discussions of the hour, he would see them as they really are, and thus seeing would behold a conquered and prostrate people refusing, through obstinacy, to surrender a superi. orlty over the conquerors which they held before the war. He would see a section, deso lated by war and Impoverished by vast ex penditures, defiantly endeavoring to dictate terms after it had unconditionally surren dered. As it is much easier. to convince a man by showing him that it is bis policy to act in a certain way, than by arguing about principlei, we would merely view the condi tion ot the South and her prospects in the light of expediency. Looking at it solely in that aspect, we have no hesitation in declaring that the true policy of the lata Rebel States Is to at once adopt the Constitutional amend ment. We do not seek to deceive when we say that the sentiment in the North, of the vast mass of the people, Is overwhelmingly in favor oi the proposed alteration of our fundamental law. The unprecedented majority in Maine is but an index of that sentiment. It is far more widely spread than is the Republican party, and has advocates among the ranks ol those who support the conservative ticket. It is not a matter of opinion, it is a fixed de termination, and unless the South will con sent to the mild terms it proposes, she will be excluded from the national councils until the heavens melt with fervent heat. Every Northern State will ratify its provisions, the conqueror will stand as a solid Macedonian phalanx in Its defense, and unless the con quered will pass under this most lenient of yokes, they will be utterly crusnea. A stranger might suppose, from the bitter new with which they opposed it, that they would have to undergo some disgraceful hu mutation which would be Inconsistent with their maahood and their honor. In reality, TUEJUILT EVENING TELEGKAPH. TOIL ADELPm AWEDNESD A Y, they have no such alternative. The accept ance of the amendment is no more humiliating than Is any law proposed by equals for the government of alL Doth North and South are affected alike by its action, and that in practice it applies more to the South than to us is only because by accident a larger num ber of negroes reside with them than with us. The rule applies to all, and surely what can be borne by us can also be borne by them. What Is not too degrading for the North is not too degrading tor the South. It docs not compel negro suffrage, It does not grant the black a single privilege more than those bestowed on them by tho Legislature of South Carolina, which ailjouxned on Saturday. It only proclaims a general rule changing the basis of representation, a rule applicable North and South, East and West, and no more degrading than a change in the rate of tariff or a tax on cotton. That the heavy tax on cotton falls principally on the South does not imply an Insult to that section, and that a new basis of representation Is ordered does not cause the inference that a stigma is put on the South because she is most affected. If cotton grew North we would suffer, and if the negroes were as numerous here as there, the same law of decrease would affect us as them. There is nothing in it insulting or humiliating. It is merely a loss of power, not of self respect , which keeps back the South. Feeling convinced that the South will never be represented until it does adopt the amend ment, we urge as a matter of policy that it im mediately act. It will then be at once read mitted to Congress. To be sure, it wlli lose some twenty-four members In the House, but as the majority in the North is so great that even with the twenty-four it would still be in a minority, we do not see that their loss is of vital consequence, especially when we reflect that the Senate will become the conservative body. If all the Southern States were to return and adopt the amendment, the upper House would then stand about forty Republican to thirty-four Conservative, which would prevent the pas sage of a bill over tho President's veto. They need not extend the right of suffrage unless they desire ; but even it they did not, their condition would be mfln'telj improvad by a readmisslon. All the questions would be set tled for the present. Commerce would be once more established. Harmony would pre vail. The country would be harmonized, and the South be allowed to go on in the new way of prosperity opened to her. Will she accept and regain her power, or will she continue forever an excluded province,hanging, without Influence, on the very verge of the nation ? The Pittsburg Convention a fir eat Success. The demonstration of fighting soldiers and sailors at Pittsburg is a magnificent success. Nothing like it has been witnessed in the country. The contrast between it and the late Cleveland affair is most marked and sig nificant. This is a convocation of men who expect no "bread and butter." They will send no congratulatory messages by tele graph to the Fort Pillow butcher. They are men who fought to save the country from disruption, and the Government from over throw. They seek now to guard the fruits ot their costly labors. They speak the senti ments and cherish the convictions that really carried the nation through its great struggle. A private soldier, a representative of the tbrte hundred thousand "brave and true," who laid down their lives in the war against Rebellion, was, appropriately, called upon to preside over the preliminary, proceedings of the Convention. The proceedings of the Convention will be watched with interest, and cannot lail of having a marked effect upon the country. The Bayard of Journalism. Some men, like the unfortunate "Wellington de Boots," seem destined to go through life in constant anticipation of a personal conflict. Of this class is H. Rives Pollard, of the Rich mond Examiner. That noble knight of the quill and bowie-knife has bad no less than seven fights within the past twelve months, and now it seems as though another was to be added to the long list of tournaments in which this Bayard of journalism has engaged. The New York Tribune yesterday gave the following special : "Washington, September 23, 18(56. Colonel John Tyler, son of ex President Tyler, and can didate tor the Virginia State Senate against Hobert Ould, ex-Rebel Commissioner ol Ex change ot Prisoners, pasted posters about the city of Richmond on Saturday afternoon, brand ing H. hives Pollard, editor ot the Richmond Examiner, aa a coward, etc., and to-night news ii received here privately that a duel has been arranged between the parties. The difficulty arises out of a political controversy, the Exami ner having retortedtto Colonel Tyler's card pub lished in the Enquirer, which accused Pollard in very uncharitable terms with being sustaiued and supported by certain Northern capitalists." This announcement conveys to us news, and brings once more before the public "Bob" Tyler. We had thought that the "President's son" was dead, but he suddenly flashes once more before us in a belligerent character. The duel, so very privately arranged by post ing the tact on dead walls, will of course be prevented, rts the combaiants probably desire. Shbuld it occur, and either of the "high con tending powers" fall, the world will be relieved of a pugilist whom social position or ability has alone raised from the prize-ring. He Has His Rewabd Hugh Ewing, who figured quite extensively in the late Cleveland Convention, has been appointed Minister resident at the Hague. Pat Youb Money, and Take Youb Choick. We wonder if any office in the gift of the Government is of sufficient import ance to merit the acceptance of General John A. Dix. Can it be . that there are so few respectable men in the conservative party that all the honors must be showered upon one? During the last moatU General Dlx has either been offered or strove to get the following posts Minister Resident at nague. Governor of New York. Naval Officer at New York city. Minister Plenipotentiary to Franc. Atpresont it would seem that, with the ex ception of the second of these offices, he has them all within his control. He has thus already declared four of his principles, and Is possessor of four of tho five loaves. The fishes will probably be forthcoming in a few days. IKFORMATION FOR THE PEOPLE. Proposed Amendment to the Count 1- tutlon. THE UNION REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. Resolved. By lbs Sonata and TToune of Representa tive! of the bulled utaie ot America iwo-tblids uf ho'h Houses concurring That the fu lowing Article be proponed to the Lettls atures ol trie several states aa an amendment to tuo '),,nntiluUoii of the Unl ed H etc lilch when tallied y three fourths of aald i.eiiislstuns, shall beval.d as part ol the Constitu tion. Vli! I "Article 14, Section 1. All Demons born or natu ralized In the Ui I ed Mates, aud subject to tliejurlml lo tion thereof, arc citizens ot the Umtd State and et the Mate wherein they reside. No Mate shall make or enforce any laws wnlob shall abridge the prlvllegoaor Immunities ot citizens of the United State. norobail any btate deprive any person ot Hie. liberty, or pro ptrtv without due process ot law, nor deny to any per son withlu its tarlsuictioo the equal protection of the laws." This section mates cltlzonship uniform in til tho States, and protooia citizens both North and bouth for example, South Carolina mast trost IVnnsylva tiiaiis with the same resueot that she treats her own citizens. 'Section 2. Reprseentatlrea sha I be apportioned among the soveiai States according to their respective numbers counting the whole number ot persons In each Hiate, exc. tiding inclans not taxed! but whenever the right to vote at anv election tor President or Vice-President, and tor the United Mates representative In Con d'ets, execuUve ano judicial officers or the members of the I.cg'Hlaturcs thereof, Is denied to any male inhabitant olsuch State, helu twenty-one yeaisoi alto, and citi zens ot the United Ma eg. or In any way abridged, ex cept lor participation In rebellion or o.iier crime, the basis oi representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of male citizens shall b.iar to the whole number of mule citizens twenty-one years of age in suoh Mate." This section fixes the basis of representation in Con (tress upon the population of the eevoral States, with this proviso, that where a State denies tho elec tive franchise to acr of its qualified male citizens o 21 yeais of (C9 (whioh any State is allowed to do under this section), that th-n ita representation in Congress shall be proportionably reduced, thus lepulating the representation in Congress by the Dumber ot voters in each State. Under tho old Con stitution, the South had three-fifths ot all her slaves added to her free population to fix her representa tion in Congress; no r t'-Rt s'averv is abolished she will have two-filths more added thoreto, and thud come beck undot the old Constitution with increased power, and won d thus make the rote of one white man in the South nearly equal to t.vo in the North This is the reason why tiie KebMs are now opposing this part of the amendment. Section 8. No person shall be a Senator or Repre sentative in Congress or elector ot President or Vice President, or hoid any office civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, baring pievlously taken an oath as a member of Ouugreas, r as an ofticor ol tho United Mates, or as a member of ant Mate Louis ature. or as au executive- or civil otllcer of any State, lo support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion agalnjt the same, or givlnr aid or comfort to the ene mies thereof; but onitress m, by a vote of two thirds Ineaoh House, remove such disability." 1 ho intention of this sronou is to give the odloos to the Union mon of the Sout.i, so that tveshail hare perpetual peaoe, and a that Jefferson Davis and other traitors like him shall never naain control this Government, and thus endanger its liberties. If those leadir.it Robe's should continue to hold tho offices in the bouth, we shall hare no poace, but, on the contrary, perpetual strife, f hey hare done enough a'roadv. fhey should have uo further say, Their children will succeed to the lights which they will lose by their ttcasou; this is enough, in all conscienco This section, you will obsorre, ap plies thos Rebels only who haro luretofore held office and taken an oaih to support the Constitution ot the United Stales; should any hardships arise tbeieby, Congress mar errant robot br a two-thirds rote. Section 4. The va'ldltr of the public fobt of the United Mates, authorized by law, including that In curred In payment ot bounties and pensions tor services In suppressing iusurroi tlon or rebellion, shall not be questioned; and neither the United Mates nor any Btate thall assume or pav any debc or obligation In curred In aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for loss or emancipation of anv slave; but ail such iiebtb, obligations, and claims shall beheld illegal and void " This section will cut off all future hope on the part of the Rebels ol securing payment for their slaves or of the tiebel debt, and thus relievo our country from future sectional strife.
