Reconstruction mt Lust What the Southern State Ought Sow to DVl From tht Herald. The recent decisive proceedings of Congross In tlio Important matter of Southern rooon utruotion have already made a profound and hopeful Impression upon the Southern public mind. The Legislature of Virginia has been callod together again, and Governor Pierpont has sent to that body an elaborate message on the situation, counselling the two Houses to accept the ultimatum of Congress in its full and true sense, and resolutions providing for a reorganizing Btato Convention have been referred to the appropriate committee in each House. This is a good sign from Virginia, the head and front and mainstay of the Rebellion. Georgia next is thoroughly aroused by the movement of ex-Gevcrnor .Brown in favor of a frank aoceptanee of the terms of Congress. Three-fourths of the newspapers of the State, as we are informed, support him; but most of the disfranchised Kebol politicians appear to be on the other side. As for JSouth Carolina,- she has sent a delegation to Washington to see about tho commander who is to le appointed over tho military district number two, which embraces North and South Carolina. The new law declares that lor the time lieing "said Rebel States shall be divided into military districts," and subject, uiwtiuu imu inuiiuiy man mm, jinn Buojeci, under certain reservations, to military law and that for this purpose Virginia shall con-. ami mat tor this purpose Virginia stitute the first district, North and South Carolina the second, Georgia, Alabama, aud Florida tho third, Mississippi and Arkansas the fourth, and Louisiana and Texas the fifth district. The South Carolina politicians, therefore, with an eye to business, first pro ceed to look up their military commander. From all these movements it is evident that the people of these outside States are begin ning to comprehend the real situation of things, in the collapse of the President's policy and the fixed purpose and power of Congress. The South might have done a great deal better, and Mr. Johnson, too, by follow ing our seasonable advice; but as broken eggs cannot be mended, it isjuseless to debate the upsetting of the basket. Until the States con cerned are reinstated in Congress they can do nothing to help themselves or their friends, and Congress has the absolute control over this subject. There is, then, no alternative for said States but submission to and the ful filment of the terms of restoration laid down by Congress, and the sooner the Itetter. Nor need the great body of the Southern whites Btand back because their blind leaders in the Rebellion are excluded from this work. If those leaders can be reached by common sense, they will advise and assist in these essential labors of reorganization. The Southern landholders, in their control of Southern black labor, comprising in most States their late slaves, may, if they will, control the black vote, and also the loyal whites to a very great extent, who are mainly of that class known in the South as "poor whites." Looking to this end, the Southern planters ought to take hold of this business at once; for if they lead off actively and syste matically in meeting the conditions of Con gress, every State involved in these neces sities may be restored to both Houses in sea son to have a voice in the coming Presiden tial election. Against the North Southern politicians, still looking to the old landmarks, may regard the vote of the South for the next President with indifference. But they cannot so regard the important question of the return of financial confidence and Northern and European capital, skill, and enterprise in the Southern States. Restoration will settle this problem at once in such a now epoch of Southern prosperity as no Southern Confede racy ever dreamed of under King Cotton. And yet again, in behalf of Southern inte rests and the general welfare, the votes of tho Southern States may be very powerful in ('ongress in the reconstruction of our whole financial system, national banks, bonds, cur rency, internal and external taxes, retrench ment and reform, which, taken all together, will soon mark the dividing lines of a new organization of parties. It is also certain that when any one of the excluded States shall have fulfilled these conditions of Congress, all disfranchisements and disabilities on account of the Rebellion will be removed. These in ducements and crowning advantages of mate rial prosperity, political power, and a full res toration to all the blessings of the Union, ought to bring even the Southern Rebel leaders tem porarily disfranchised to active co-operation in behalf of the ultimatum of Congress. The Southern white Landlord, if he will only try. may make his black laborer a political ally for life against all comers and all political combi nations. ' Thus, with this very element of the negro vote, the South, in behalf of Southern interests, may soon assume a more compact front in Congress than it has ever held hereto fore. Kvery consideration of wisdom pleads for Southern submission promptly and in good faith to tho terms of Congress. It is so settled, and there is no way of escape. Proponed Repudiation. Vom the Tribnnt. We can understand the inflationists and free traders when they talk in the following man ner. We quote from a conspicuous communi cation on the editorial page of the Chicago Tribune: "The principal of no part of the funded debt, save the Ten-forty five per cent, loan, is specially made payable in gold. No provision is contained, either in the law or in the contract, as to the currency in which the other bondB are to 1 paid. (Laws of 1802, chapter 33, page 23.) The principal, there fore, is payable in wliich everulass of legal-tender the payer prefers. The whole funded debt, except the Sixes of 18111 and the Ten-forties, ' becomes payable at the option of the Govern ment, in or before the year 1873. As it matures it oucht to be naid in greenbacks. The currency to make these payments could be obtained, if necessary, by a tree use of the uriutine press. Government would then be in a condition to make its own tonus. Two courses would be epen: Either to fund the notes, at their carreut value m gold, into a bond bearing say live per cent, interest; or to fund them, at their tiice value, into a three per cent, bond, payable principal, as well as interest, in coin." Here is stark naked repu diation openly advocated by a free trade infla tionist Journal. This is precisely the debauchery and de moralisation Into which the country is being plunged in oonsequenoe of its departure from the old-faslionod ideas of considering a debt and a promise something to be honestly dis charged. We have sworn by the irredeemable promises of the Treasury so long, we have so TIIE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, persistently declared that Uncle Sam's promise was as good as anylxxlv else's performance, that we are beginning to reap tho fruits of the declaration, l'eople are taken at their word. We have heard on all sides that irredeemable greenbacks are good; that we want nothing lotter; that the country is content if they never have any other currency; and the Illinoia House of Representatives votes, 70 to 7, in favor of having them substituted fo the notes of the National banks. Heing good, they want more of them, and it in now proposed to convert our interest-ln-aring securities into them, after the fashion aiwvo delineated. As fast as the 7-30s become due pay them off in legal-tenders. "A free use of the printing press," exclaims this writer, is all that is re quired. Having substituted greenbacks for the 7-30s, there is only one step more to take, and the ground is entirely cleared. 1'ay off the 5-20s in the same way, and there is an end of your national debt. The nation will owe nothing. For bo it xmderstood, the green backs are good whether they are redeemable or not. Such is the theory of the inflationists. The notes are based on the entire property of the country; they are the nation's promise. And is not the nation good for its promises, good for all the legal-tenders in circulation; and would it not be equally good for them if all tho 7-30s and all the 5-3ba that it flow owes were converted into them ? Why, then, hesi tate at the conversion f Such is the reasoning of our irredeemable paper money mon. This brings us to the precise point where we test the value of the greenback. It is hero to be seen that tho greenback has no actual value that does not rest upon the prospect of its re demption. And if there were no such pros pect, the fact of its leing a national promise, of us Doing an obligation resting upon tho pro- 4 . f. '. . . 1 . the country, would not mve to it the hl? CP!)Pr, cent' , 11 wou,d , ,0 utt(!rly im iuiuii vuiuciess. issue a small quantity, the prospect of their redemption may be good. Issue a larger quantity, this prospect is dimin ished. Issue still more, and yet more aud more, and you can destroy the prospect en tirely. It is thus we may see there is no certain value to the greenback. It is a most pernicious and dangerous instrument, because its value can bo so easily depreciated, and even de stroyed, by reckless or ignorant legislation. It is proposed to make it the convenient sponge for all private indebtedness, and the ready in strument of repudiation. This is the very use the inflationists propose to make of it. In the extracts above quoted they boldly come to the front and declare their purpose. They will pay off the national debt ' in them, and by is suing them to this extent they will so far destroy the expectation of their ever being re deemed, in which rests all the value they have, that the national creditors are expected to readily agree to take any proportion of their claims that may be offered in the shape of actual pay. And now what is the upshot of the matter ? It is just this: That we have to consider the legal-tenders of the Government, until some provision is made for their redemption, just as much of a swindle as any other form of irre deemable paper whatever. That we have to dismiss the idea of the sanctity and value of the Government legal-tender note. That we have got to hold it to be, in the hands of in flationists, nothing but an instrument of rob bery. We have to rectify the popular senti ment. We have to denounce the idea of paying debts in irredeemable promises to pay as a fraud, and the law which permits it as a fraudulent law. If we wish to avoid the pro positions of swindlers and the evils of swindling, we have to go back to first princi ples, and define what swindling is. And we must see, and recognize, and enforce the doc trine everywhere and in all its universal ap plications, that an unfulfilled promise is a baseness, and that where it is deliberately and intentionally broken it is a fraud. We have no other solid ground on which to meet the inflationists. They flaunt a green back, and declare it to be a good and honest instrument of traffic, and a representative of real value, good enough to pay individual debts, good enough, to pay the National debt. This false and mischievous idea has had cre dence long enough. It is high time it was branded as it deserves; high time the senti ment was repudiated, and the Government required to recall its issues and fulfil its too long deferred promises to pay. The "wild-cat" Philistines are taking advantage of a praiseworthy and patriotio determination, drawn forth by the exigencies of the war, that the credit of the Government must be main tained at all hazards; of a sentiment which as sumed a vice to be a virtue, and declared that the promise to pay a dollar was the dollar itself. The doctrine bridged a gulf. But we are safely over that gulf and on solid ground. Being through the war, we lay aside the strata gems of war, and betake ourselves to truthful statements and honest courses; and we do not intend that the inflationist "bummers" of the crowd shall insist ipon applying their rules and practices of war to the state of peace which has followed. We are far enough along in this iinancial business to be able to tell the truth about it, and to insist on adherence to sound maxims; and we do not propose to give any qunrter to the fraudulent ideas, however bottomed, that lead to the financial ruin and disgrace with which the inflationists are already Ixildly threatening us. John Morrissey In Congrtti, From the Timet. Of all the members of the new Congress,-, Mr. Morrissey, of tlus city, appears to attract most interest in Wasliington. We are told that when he piade his appearance to be sworn in on Monday, the anxiety of the House and the galleries to get a glimpse of him was intense. The telegraph, with some confusion of lan guage, says that "his line personnel astonished many who had formed their opinions of him based upon ideas obtained from the popular conception of his character." Members crowded round his ssat to congratulate him, and the brilliant avray of ladies who on this, occasion were scattered all over the House, gave evidence of something more than curi--osity concerning him. The first public act of Mr. Morrissey after being sworn in was to enter his protest, in company with his fellow Democrats, against the exclusion of Southern representatives from their seats in Congress, and the protest received emphasis from the fact that he joined in it. If, now, Mr. Morrissey chooses to take ad vantage of his opportunity in Congress, he can make a mark which few of his fellow-members have the chance to do. And in this we must not be understood as saying anything funny, or with a double meaning. Any one might envy film me chance ot fame that lies m his first speech.. We venture to say that no orator ever stood in Congress with more eager lis teners than he will have when he opens his mouth to deliver his maiden speech; and no speech was ever perused with more interest by the country than his will le when he gives the opportunity. If he take up, as we have no doubt lie will, the question of reconstruction and. if. he deliver an oration worthy p( the theme and the hour he may not only aid in bringing order out of political confusion, but he may raise a monument to his own name more durable than that of which VirgU sings. Let him expose tho fallacies of Stevens, rebuke the wrath of IiOgan, and mako Butler behave himself let him, at the same time, with pa triotio independence, spurn the Copperhead counsels of Brooks and Fernando Wood, and lie will soon lw able to justify the interest which his presence has already excited in Washington. In tho meantime ho should not be long in following up his protest of Monday with a more elaborate effort. Practical Operation of the New Tyranny. FYivm the World. Whether action or abstention shall be the policy of tho South undor tho new law which has lieen passed for their oppresion, is hardly a matter of choice. The new system contem plates the continuance of the State Govern ments as provisional organizations, subject, indeed, to be at all times interfered with and overruled, but forming, nevertheless, the or dinary machinery for administering tho affairs of tho States. By inaction on the part of the people, this machinery would drop at onco out ofoxistonce, and Congress has provided nothing to supply its place. Civilized communities must every day buy and soil, make contracts, collect debts, attest wills, administer tho es tates of deceased persons, appoint guardians, record deeds, foreclose mortgages, and do an infinity of acts and things which require to bo done according to the forms and with the sanction of law. Society cannot otherwise exist. To say nothing of the higher courts ana iunctionaries, there must be in every I locality justices of the peace, notaries, surro ; gates, registers of deeds, commissioners of ! highways, constables, sheriffs, and all the I other officers on whom a community depends ' for the transaction of its business, the re- dress of its wrongs, tho security of its pro j perty, and tho preservation of order. Con ' gress has made no provision for supplying this necessary and multifarious machinery, with ; out which the ordinary transactions of life ; cannot go on; and yet it has legislated out of ! office all tho existing functionaries. It re i quires others to be chosen in their placos, I prescribing their qualifications and the rules I of suffrage by which they shall bo elected, I but pointing out no other way of filling the j multitudinous vacancies. I It will be seen, therefore, that the Southern people cannot stand aloof from this infernal I law if they would. If they decline all action I under it, and all participation in the proceed ; ings it prescribes, the- result will be a com- plete disintegration of civil society through out the South. We insert the sixth section of the law: Seotlon 6. And be it further enacted, That until tlie people of the eaid Keb-l states Mliali by law be admitted to representation to the Congress of the United .States, all civil govern ments that may exist therein shall be deemed provisional only, and Khali be iu nil respects subject to ttie paramount authority of the Uniledi States to abolish, modify, control, and supersede the same, unU in nil elections to any oflice under such provisional Kovernments all pel sous shall be entitled to vote under the pro visions of the flfth section or this act. And no person shall be eligible to nuy olllce under such provisional government who would be dis qualified lroiii holding oflice under the provi sions of the third article of said Constitutional amendment. No person is qualified to hold any office under the State Governments reduced by this bill to a provisional character if, previous to his participation in the Rebellion, he had ever,' in any official capacity, taken an oath to sup port the Constitution of the United States. The continuance in office of the present in cumlents dejtends on their never having held any State or Federal ollice previous to the Rebellion. All of them who ever did hold such office must retire, and have their places supplied by an election in which all the freed men will be voters. There are probably very few who can retain their present offices under this provision, so that, the South will be brought face to face with negro suffrage in now elections throughout all the States. We sup pose the time and manner of holding them will be prescribed by the Brigadier-General in command, and that it rests in his discretion whether such elections sluill bo ordered im mediately, or whether he will await the regu lar day under tho State laws. But whether the elections are ordered a few months earlier or later, the Southern people have but a brief period to decide how they will act with refer ence to negro suffrage. If they shall pretty generally accept the situation, and act together, they can secure such officers as they -want not the very persons perhaps, for these may be among the disfranchised, but persons true to Southern interests. Taking the whole ten States together, the whites exceed the blacks in the proportion of two to one, so that the negro vote would, in general, be com pletely neutralized by a full participation of the whites in the elections. It would be a great mistake, however, to allow the negroes to cast a solid vote against the white candi dates. That could easily bo prevented by early acquiescence in the situation, and taking measures to conciliate and control the negro vote. The worst mistake of all would be an abstention from voting by a majority of the whites, the effect of which would' lie merely to Africanize all the adminintrative machinery of the States, .and band the negroes together, at the outset, as a hostile political organization. The experiments at Georgetown and Alexan dria are no criterion by which to judge of the manageability of the negro vote. The close proximity of those places to Washington, which has liecome the sink and focus of radi cal influence, spreads the contagion through the negro pophlation of those towns. In the interior , of the South the negroes will be brought .jiito contact only with conservative influences, and their temporary inability to read renders theni impervious to radical ap ical through the press. This is a condition of things which ought to be improved while it lasts, by such kind treatment and educational helps as will lead them to look to their white neighbors, instead of the distant Yankees, as their U-nefactors. Vcte they will, under the new n'tiuni , in any event. It denends on th wrt body of intelligent planters whether the ballot in their hands shall prove an unmitigated and intolerable curse, or a harmless means of education and a bond of attachment to the communities in wliich they live. Tho regular election hi Virginia takes place in May, only two months hence, and the future tranquillity of that influential State hinges upon the decision which she may meanwhile make. In several of her counties the negro population outnumbers the white. Teace and order in those counties obviously depend upon courting and. cent rolling the negro vote, lo abstain from political action under such circumstances would be an infatuated resigna tion to ruin. A workman must not quarrel with jus tools when he can get no better. The less political power the . South possess, the more it 1 hooves them to make an effective use of what little they have. To win against odds by superior skill is altogether letter than despondency and tame surrender. To prevent the negroes from voting under the new law Is impossible. It will be more politic and saga- C.tnim tO 1)1 .111 n IT fl ttlOm tllOn in mirn tl.nm wv -------f- - .'I VI ty u b 1 VW 1 1 1 1 1 1 although in most districts they can be out voted.
