President Lincoln on Reconstruction.
from the JmlrpendenL
In the elaborate volume recently tanned
10m the press j Mr.-Arnold, late memWr of
Congress from Illinois, devoted especially to
fee course of President Lincoln in regard to
the abolition of slavery, the author presents
an instructive account of the President's
lews on the policy of reconstruction. Mr.
Arnold enjoyed an ample opportunity for
gaining accurate information on the subject,
both from his official position and his personal
relations with Abraham Lincoln, with whom
ke had maintained an intimate friendship for
more than twenty years. His statements,
which are marked by equal intelligence and
andor, we believe are worthy of entire reli
ance, and in the present crisis may serve to
throw important light on the minds of the
American people.
Nothing, could be further from the truth
than the assertion which some bold politicians
have ventured to make, that the arbitrary
policy of Andrew Johnson can find sanction
in the example of the late modest and consci
entious President. Although Mr. Lincoln did
mot live ten days after the surrender of Gene
ral Lee, he immediately addressed himself to
the work of reconstruction, lie was no theo
rist, no visionary, no devotee of foregone con
elusions, but a wise and practical statesman,
intent on securing the permanence of the
Government and the unity of the country,
llis time was too t-hort to develop a policy
in all its details; ho did not commit himself
to any scheme of political speculators, but it is
ertain that he demanded the most effective
guarantees for the safety of the Republic W fore
restoiiug to power those who had conspired
for its overthrow.
It will not be doubted that the freedom of
the colored race was an indispensable condi
tion to any plan fcof reconstruction which lie
would countenance This was explicitly de
elared in his messages, and repeated in his
instructions to Mr. Seward before the con
ference at Hampton Roads. Equally clear was
his opinion with regard to the powers of the
Executive and Congress over the condition of
the rebellious States. He always took open
and consistent ground on this point. His
Statements with regard to it on many occasions
leave no room for dispute. In his first annual
message of 18(51, he recommends to Congress,
as possessed of powers adequate to the anoma
lous position, the establishment of courts for
the administration of justice in such portions
ef the insurgent States as might be under the
octroi of the Government. In direct opposi
tion to the policy of President Johnson, he
proposes this measure, as being himself "'un
willing to go beyond the pressure of necessity
in the unusual exercise of power."
As soon as the Rebellion was suppressed
in any portion ef the insurgent territory,
Mr. Lincoln recognized it as the duty of the
Executive to restore the regular course of
law and justice. He accomplished this, in
the first instance, through the military
power; then by the appointment of Provi
sional Governors; and. finally, by the organi
sation cf civil government under the direc
tion of th? Executive. But be always re
garded tlria as a temporary, subordinate
arrangement, before its sanction by Congress.
The Rebel State Governments, in his view,
were enemies to be overthrown, and new
governments of republican form to be esta
blished in their stead. It was his function to
take the initiatory steps for their organiza
tion; but be always treated these proceedings
it ; a- e - .
as preliminary, requiring xne action vi con
gress, before the Hew State Government
Tvoulu be entitled to resume its former politi
cal relations, to be represented in Congress,
and to vote in the Electoral College.
While he considered the Confederates as
jmblic enemies, and all the acts of their gov
ernment as absolutely null and void, he was
equally anxious to bring back their territory,
freed from the curse of slavery, to its "proper
practical relations to the Union." In a letter
to General Banks in regard to Louisiana, the
President said, "If Louisiana sends members
, to Congress, their admission to their seats
will depend, as you know, upon the respec
tive Houses of Congress, and not upon the
Executive."
In like manner President Lincoln stated in
lis speech on the evening of April 11, 18G5,
alluding . to his annual messagefof 1803: "I
distinctly protested that the Executive claimed
jdo right to say when or whether members
should be admitted to seats in Congress from
such States." This was done in spite of the
advice to the contrary by a member of bis
Cabinet, understood to be Mr. Seward, who
then held the Bame rose-colored views with
regard to the safety of the Union which have
often threatened such serious damage to the
Interests of the Republic. Other evidence,
which, it would be tedious to quote, abun
dantly shows that in the opinion of Mr. Lin
coln the terms of readmission to a share in the
Government for the rebellious States were
to be presented by Congress, and not by the
Executive.
Not less explicit were Mr. Lincoln's views
n the vital question whether the States
whose people Lad been in rebellion would be
entitled to vote in the Electoral College a
right correlative to that of representation in
Congress. In ins Message of February 8,
I860, he remarks that to the two Houses of
Congress belonged exclusively the right "to
exclude from counting all electoral votes
deemed by them to be illegal," while at the
Kftme time he sitmed the ioint resolution bv
which the votes of the eleven States in rebel
lion were excluded from the Electoral College
of 1804.
Quite as little doubt exists with regard to
President Lincoln's ideas on the practical
nuestion of reconstruction. He insisted that
loyalty should be the basis of every plan
He would exclude certain classes of the late
IMiels both from votiiiR and holdiue: office
In his message of December, 18(13, he says:
'There must be a test, so as to build only
from the sound." "An attempt to guarantee
a revived State Government constructed from
the very element against whose hostility and
violence it is to bo protected, is Biuiply ab
surd. " His whole course was in accordance
wjtJi this principle, Jit made Union men

that "Rebels must take the

and faithful men m the front seats. He
cherished no vindictive feelings towarda the

ViitiHnTia
i in ti nnnitinrj of the neirro in
the reconstructed Republic, Mr. Arnold de
clares that lie has evidence, which cannot now
lie made public, showing that the policy of
Mr. Lincoln, had he Jived, would have been
founded on general amnesty and negro suf
frage. The language of his own speeches
proves that he was in favor of bestowing the
elective franchise on the blacks, certainly at
b ast "on the intelligent and to those who had
exposed their lives for their country by serv
ing in the I'nion army," and eventually on all
loyal men, whether white or black.
It is, therefore, idle to quote the example
of the late President in support of the usurp
ing policy of Andrew Johnson. It is worse
than idle; it is a positive deception. The poli
tical measures of the two men were as wide
apart, as their personal characters. Lincoln
humble, teachable, self-forgotting, with broad
and literal views of the interests of the whole
country desired the restoration of the Union
on the basis of loyal attachment; Johnson
arbitrary, opinionated, with a high conceit of
himselfis working for the triumph of his
party at tho risk of again placing in peril our
national existence.
