KDIDAY, PECEMPER 7, 18G0.
The True Point at Issue.
'iu-i Age, In discussing Mr. Sumncr'a rccon
8ii m Hon resolutions, says :
4 iiif bar in the way of this proportion is tlii
Jmst, Maicd bv the I'residpiit, and nrgo.l in our
ioli i.nis more than one1, that Governments
u.it ,u all the. Southern iilntes, and hence Cmi
btcww lins nntb;ii? .lo do with reconstruction,
exm-l to allow the people representation."
The lucstlon Is not whether "Governments
ciht in. the Southern States," but whether
those Governments are loyal, valid constitu
tional Governments, and "republican In
form." And the Constitution, In imposing
upon Congress the duty of guaranteeing to
every State a republican form of govern
ment, necessarily clothes that body wl.h the
power of deciding wliat are and wbat are not
republican forms of government.
State Governments existed In all the
Soutl.ern States at the close of the Re
bellion, but tbey were Rebel State Gov
ernments, and President Jobnson over
threw them. The Age, we believe, en
dorses that action of the President, and in
doing so of course concedes that the mere
existence of State Governments in the South
ern States does not determine the rightful
ness of their existence, much less the justice
of their c'alm to share political power in the
government of the Union. That the present
organizations called State Governments, in
the territories of the late Rebel States, are
utterly illegal, fraudulent, Bind unconstitu
tional, we deem to be susceptible of the
clearest proof. That they are not republican
in forni is equally evident. That they are
composed of persons lately in rebellion, and
are as throughly Rebel in character as were
those oveithrown by President Johnson in
April, 1805, hardly adtrts of a doubt.
Congress, therefore, in interfering with
these illegal and usurping organizations, will
be but following out the strict letter of the
Constitution, while it will also remove what
8 now the chief obstacle to the peace and
piogn es of the country.
Xew Oi leans Massacre to be Ventilated.
No mobe disgracolul page of American his
tory will ever be written than that which
rhall truthfully detail all the facts in regard
to the New Orleans massacre. It will be
remembered that the President, in his noto
rious St. Louis speech lint summer, distinctly
charged the responsibility of that affa'r upon
tie Congress of thi. United States. The
intercuts of justice require that that bloody
massacre shall be investigated, and all the
firts connect d witli it ba placed beiore
I i.e public. We are, therelore, glad to see
tUat the House of Representatives yester
day adopted the following resolution. It is
.said that the Committee will proceed to
Sew Orleans next Monday to commence its
wpik:
"Jietoived, That a committee of three members
1h appointed hy the Spenser, whoie d ltv (.hall

suoh legislative action as may be requisite, in
view of the condition oi aftairs in tbe State of
Louisiana."
No Presidential Re-elections.
The motion of the Hon. B. F. Wade, to so
amend the Constitution as to render the
President ineligible to re-election, seems to
us eminently proper. By sucl an alteratioa
of tbe supreme law oi our land many ot the
evils which aie now incident to the general
administration would be obviated. The occu
pant of the Executive chair, under the pre
sent system, consumes his term of office with
the exertions to secure his re-election. All
his actions tend toward? that result. All
that would be likely to injure his popularity
is carefully refrained from, and the admistra
tion of government becomes rather the
means of personal advancement than the
exponent of justice. If, however, be must
be satisfied with the honor once accorded
blm, and bis office close when tb four years
bave elapsed, the great incentive to a sacri
fice of right for popularity would be with
drawn, and the result would be a marked
mprovement in the policy of the Executive.
While, therefore, much good would probably
result from this change, we expose ourselves
to uae 188 ut l'1''0 6' The only
argument that caa De advanced for the
eligibility ?f tne President is, that when we
get a good oflW er we Bnoula' retain him. But
then all the bad one9 deB're tne honor, and
exactly in proportion ,t0 the,r worthlessness j
will they ufe the power o." tho Government, j
to ftid their personal umbitiou. " 18 hest
that the good be limited as well a tlie bd,
for better to be deprived of one faithful" ser
vant than expoe ourselves to the corrup
tions which many faithless ones would
attempt. We hope the amendment will
twelve, the early sanction, of Congress.
THE DxfLY EVENING TELEGKAPIL PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7, 18G6.
The Appointments A Iteform Needed.
Uon Lkonaui Mykba, oi this city, Intro
duced yesterday in the House tho following
very Important preamble and resolutions
' Whereon, Under the; Constitution of thi
United States the President of tho United States
ban power to appoint oiI'icpm of tbe United
Statei", whose appointments are established by
law only by and with the advice an i consent of
the Senate, except temporarily to till up vacan
cies that may happen in the reoe of tbe Senate;
and whereas. The present Chief MagUtrate, it is
alleged, has, in numerous instaureg, failed to
nominate Mich officers to the Senate for such
advice and coi sent until Its session hid nearly
clospd, and then, after rejection, reappointed
them or designated others for their places, thus
virtually exercising the eole power oi appoint
ment; and whereas, Id uumerou other instances
he ho?, it Is all' ped, appointed men to office,
and allowed a session of the Senate to elapse
without sending it their name for onQrma
tion; and whereas, Uehai alo, it is allied, in
numerous instances, during the recess of the
Seiia'c, made op point men'. 9 to office where no
vacancies bad happened or existed: b it
'hesolQcd, Tiiat tlic President of tb-i United
States be and he ts hereby requested to cotn
nuimca'e lo the Ilo.iw, ut as early a day us
popsihle:
"1. The names of all persons reappointed by
him alter rejection by the Se-uate, or the names
ol others appuiute I in the'.rstetd, with a deal
imtit n ot tbe offices to which they were so
appointed, and the dates of their several ap
pointments and ot their nominations to tha
Sen ate.
"2. A like list and designation of all persons
oppointcd by him whose names were withheld
trom the Senate during its session.
"3. A like list and designation of all appoint
ments made by him during the recess of the
Siiiate where no vaeaucy had happencl, and, if
to till vacancies then a complete statement of
how such vacancies occurred."
We trust that, while Congress has this sub
ject under consideration, it will introduce a
thorough and radical reform into our whole
system of public appointments. The practical
carrying-out of the vicious maxim that
" To the victors belong the spoils," has
done more to aorrupt and degrade Ameri
can politics, and to Injure the public
service, than any. or all other causes com
bined. The present id a favorable time for
inaugurating a reform which shall go to tbe
root of the matter.
To be Investigated.
Tnrc House of Representatives yesterday, on
motion of Mr. Pike, of Maine, adopted a pre
amble and resolution reciting that three
United S ates soldiers were murdered in
South Carolina on October C, under circum
stances of pecul iar cruelty ; that several per
sons were arrested, t'ied, and condemned by
a military commission for eaid murder; that
such persons were subsequently reprieved
and sent to Fort Delaware, from which they
were taken by habeas corpus and set free ;
and resolving that a select committee of three
be appointed by the Speaker to investigate
the circums'ances attending the murder, and
by Whose proCUiement tho reprieve and
transfer were made, and the consideration
for tbe same, and the reasons thereof, and
all the fact connected therewith; the com
mittee to have power to send lor persons and
papers, examine witnesses under oath, and to
report to the House such action as it may
deem necessary.
What gives especial interest to this matter
is that it is charged that a present Cabinet
officer, who was at that time practising law
in Washington, received an enormous fee
for using his personal influence with the Pre
sident in ob a'nlng a reprieve for these
scoundrels, who have Just been set tree.
Democratic Gratitude to the President
Mb. Le Blosd, a Democratic member of the
House from Ohio, in discussing yesterday the
bill providing for tho assembling of the For
tieth and each succeeding Congress upon the
4th day ot March of the years in which
the Congressional terms of office commenc e
made tbe following allusions to the Presi
dent :
"I can se nothing but mischief in this whole
system of legislation, an I I would much raibcr,
11 trentlcnieu are bo ng to legislate in tbat way,
that they would at once make a bold strike,
a no take the had of the Executive oif. (Ones
01 "ijood" and ''Let us understand the niituer."
Laughter.) We have no interest iu the lisecu
tne on this s de of the llou-e not tbe least.
(Renewed lanchter. ) He is not the man of our
cboice; we did not put him tbere. (Clapping
ol hands) We do not claim any beueits under
ntm, and certainly e did not receive anv in tbe
lute enmpa'gn. (Renewed laughter.) We never
took him up, and w e, therelore, had no right to
droD him There was no necessity of our arop.
rii)g that which to had never taken up. We
ncvii- took diui up. and be never took us uo. It
i? Irue, whenever he ran into our line of policy,
we wtio bound to sustain him; Out we never
pretended to shoulder tnat which this radical
party has put int power. To do V ould
destroy an? party in the w o rid. (Roars of
laughter. )"'
Pride and Povcily
Raleigh, N. C, December 6. Colonel Ltach,
Chairman of the Committee on tbe Conti(u
tionul Amendment, reported In the Stale Senate
to-day adversely to tbe ratification of the amend
ment. Both Houses of the Lieislature have
resolved unanimously to accept the protFer ot
assistance made by the Freedmen's Buieau to
the destitute whites and blacks.
Tbe pride of the chivalnc Southern heart
is too great for it to submit to the degrada
tion of adopting the Constitutional amend
menta provision at once most magnanimous
and just. But while we of course admire the
hauteur which will refuse humility, yet it
stiikes us, good, honest souls, that there is a
slight inconsistency iu unanimously accept"
ing Northern charity and feeding on North
em alms, when they will not assent to any
of the requests of tbe donors. Think how
badly the North would feel, if both its
amendment and its bread were to be re
jected ! For tbe glory of pride, we hope that
hereafter both Noithern aid and Northern
proposition will be treated with scorn by our
Southern neighbors.
TnK law authorizing the payment ol
loyal" slaveholder for their slaves who
enlisted in the Union army, Is very likely to
be repealed. It ought to be.
