THURSDAY, JULY 11, 1867. The Importance of Overthrowing Air. Johnson's Illegal and llevoltuionary State Governmeuts. It is afe to assume in the battles of politics, that a position which s carefully guarded and obstinately defended ly your enemy must be one of some importance. Judged by this cri terion, the Provisional State Governments elected by President Johnson in the late Rebel States constitute the key-point in the presont political contest. It was not until the exist ence of one of these se-oalled State Govern ments was practically threatened by the re moval of some of its chief functionaries by General Sheridan, that Mr. Johnson seriously set himself to obstruct the execution of the Reconstruction law and to nullify its provi sions. Attorney-General Stanbery was then called upon to manufacture his "opinion," the gist of which was the preservation of these governments as de facto organizations. Con gress might, as it did, declare them provi sional, and in express terms subordinate them to the military power, and the Executive would take no steps to interfere. But the moment the actual integrity of one of these organizations was assailed, that moment lie reopened the controversy with Congress, and braved the perils of a special session. The careful observer will also note that in all the animadversions of the Democracy upon the Reconstruction law, the gravamen of their attacks is that said law overthrows these so called State Governments. From all this we may safely conclude that the perpetuation of these governments is regarded by the entire Opposition, from the President down, as a matter of supreme moment. A slight retrospect of the various steps in the history of the contest between the loyal people and Mr. Johnson will serve to show why this is so. ' ' ' ( The original State Governments of the late Rebel States, those Governments under which they entered the Union, or were admitted to It, and under which - they continued to live down to the breaking out of the Rebellion, were overthrown or supplanted at the very commencement of the struggle. They were succeeded by the Rebel State Governments, which lasted during the entire war. These latter were illegal, unconstitutional, revolu tionary organizations, warring upon ' the United States. Their fate was of course bound up in that of the so-called Confederacy, of which they each constituted a part. When the Rebellion was conquered and overthrown, theee Rebel State Governments fell with it. The Rebel States were then without State Governments of any kind. They had neither governors, judges, nor legislators. The entire framework of civil government within their limits had perished. A blank was left. This was the condition of affairs in the spring of 1865, subsequent to the overthrow of the Rebellion. All civil government , had ceased in the late Rebel States, and the mili tary power of the United States held undis puted possession of the country. Here the practical problem of reconstruction commenced. These States could not be held under permanent military rule. The machi nery of civil government must be again set up. State Governments must be organized. War had done its work in settling the appeal which had been made to the sword, and now the foundations of the permanent structure o society must be laid. At just this point, had President Johnson consulted the letter and spirit of the Constitu tion, he would have called Congress together in extra session, or would have awaited its Tegular meeting, and would have committed the whole problem to the people's representa tivea. Blinded, however, by his own ambi tion and love of power, he proceeded to usurp the functions of Congress, and undertook the work of creating State Governmentsonhisown hook. Through his agents he proceeded with his self-imposed task, and created the present provisional State organizations in the late Rebel States. He claimed for these crea tions of his, these products of Executive usur pation, not only legality, but absolute position in the Union as integral parts of the Govern ment of the nation. He had his "Representa tives" and "Senators" on hand at Washing ton, ready to claim seats at the opening of Congress. But at this point Congress took hold of the question, and at once repudiated Mr. John son's work as illegal and revolutionary. It denied the constitutionality of those State Gov ernments which he had created, and refused admission to his Representatives and Senators Both parties appealed to the people in the election of last fall, and the people, with an unanimity and emphasis rarely paralleled in this country, endorsed and sustained Congress. The Reconstruction bills followed, declaring these bogus State Governments of Mr. John eon's to be merely provisional, and subject to the paramount authority of the Military Com manders provided for by the bill. lut as soon as the Military Commanders began to put this feature of the law into execution, th President stepped in and nullified the statute by an "opinion" of, the Attorne-yGeneral, manufactured for the oocasion. This brought together acraln. and reopened the Q D whole subject. Now, cannot any man Bee that these bogus State Governments of Mr. Johnson's are the pith of the whole contest ? So long m they remain in exirttence the Exeoutive usurpation triumphs injact. Its work endures. No mat ter by what name they may be called pro visional, temporary, or what not thry are tie facto Governments, which were created by President Johnson. The people look to them for all the usual functions of government, for they can look to no other. They muat use these or nothing. Now, cannot our Republi can friends in Congress fcee that so len as this condition of affairs remains, Mr. John son has an immense advantage in the fight f He holds the "nine points" of possession. His work remains. His Governments, illegal and unconstitutional though they be, are still dv facto Governments. Every day that they re main in existence adds to their strength. They are so many fortresses left in the hands of the enemy, and their guns will be turned upon us at the first moment when the fight may seem to waver. There they are, State Governments fully organized, and with a full complement of Representatives and Senators, ready to make a break for Washington at the first in timation from our enemies. Now what we need is that the Executive usurpation should cease to be a praotical suo cess. The de facto organizations should be of Congressional and not of Presidential origin. Mr. Johnson's work should not merely be de clared illegal, but it 6hould at once be undone. It should be wiped out. What oares he if Congress does call his State Governments illegal and provisional, so long as they are allowed to remain and to fulfil all the func tions of government t He can afford to wait, for every day's delay strengthens him and weakens us. , It is in this view of the case that we ex ceedingly regret that the Senate, a day or two since, refused to entertain Mr. Wilson's pro posal to fix a definite period, after which these illegal and unconstitutional State organiza tions of Mr. Johnson's should cease to exist. We regard such a provision as of the highest importance. If Congress shall leave these fruits of Executive usurpation in existence, it will leave a powerful weapon In Mr. John son's hands, and one whioh he will not hesi tate to use should occasion offer. We trust that Mr. Wilson's proposition will be in corporated in the supplementary bill before it shall finally pass. , , . : A Curious Fraud in Land Deeds. A most curious fraud has come to light in Ger man town in the shape of real estate forge ries, which, for the ease with which It was accomplished, and the evident possibility of a similar imposition being made on almost any of our land-owners, demands more attention than that usually meted out to a police report. The facts of the case are these. It seems that a store and dwelling in German town was leased some eight or nine years ago, by Mr. Harper to a lessee, wh has continued to regularly pay his rent until the present year. That in the fall of 1SG5 the lessee, a man by the name of Johnson, visited Mr. Richard Nor ris, and stated that he desired to borrow money on a mortgage on his property, for which he could show a clear brief of title. The sum of $5000 was advanced to him, and he delivered the mortgage, after satisfying the counsel of Mr. Norris, by presenting him with the various deeds, that the property was actu ally his. It now appears that Mr. Harper never sold a foot of the land to Johnson; that he was merely the lessee; and that, in order to deceive Mr. Norris, he forged a deed of sale by Harper to him, and actually had the deed recorded. The result is that Mr. Norris is cheated out of his $5000, unless Johnson possesses some property of his own which can repay him. This crime, is something new in the way of raising funds, and is rather alarming to gentlemen holding mortgages. It is a trick that oan be played upon any one. Nothing is needed but to forge deed, and have the assurance to get it registered. The good title can be adopted from the original purchaser down to the present owner, so that it is difficult to detect the true from the false, for all the chain may be genuine except the last un. mr ao we see very clearly how the danger is to be avoided. It is generally safe to presume that recorded deeds are true; and when searches show that all the deeds are on file in the publio offioes, it is likelv to deceive the most wary, unless the previous owner be personally sought and con suited a proceeding at all times disagreeable, and frequently impassible. A case somewhat similar in its modus ope randi, although not alike in some of its details, recently occurred in New York. A lady living In Brooklyn owned certain lands near ssew York, we believe at Elizabethtown, N. J. One day a lady, purporting to be the owner and answering to the same name, visited a lawyer in Elizabethtown, and desired him to secure mnrtMirA on her property. Sue paid hlia -e-o- - - several visits, and as he knew the property to really belong to a lady of her name, he never doubted the identity. The money asked for was advanced on the mortgage, and nothing more was heard of the fair visitor. Two years afterwards the land was sold by the bona fide owner, and the fraud discovered. Both this and the Germantown mode of raising funds are dangerously plausible and difHoult of de tection, and it behooves our citizens to be ex tremely careful that they do not buy a mort gage from some ono who has no better right than the mortgagee himself.

Hark, from the Toombs a Doleful Sound!" Thh man who lined to predict in the Unitl States Senate that he would some day call the roll of his slaves within the shadow of Banker Hill monument, has crawled ont of his retire ment to "speak a pieoe," by way of writing a letter to the public through W. M. Corry, "Corresponding Secretary of the Democratic Central Committee." Toombs ha3 not chauged since he entered publio life thirty years ago "as a nullifier." He regrets "nothing in the past but the dead and the fallen," and is ready to go to work to-day "to establish the princi ples for which he fought." He says he Is goiDg to commence operations In Ooorgia forth, with; but unlosi he works more effectually than he "fought," we are afraid he will not accomplish mnch. , An Abundant Harvest. All the reports from various parts of the country in regard to the crops conour in the most flattering representations of their condi tion. The wheat harvest has been gathered in a verf wide section, and is now in progress in many others, and everywhere the yield is large and the quality excellent. Corn is grow ing finely and promises well. Orass is very heavy, and the yield of hay will be the largest for many years. The cotton crop gives excel lent promise, and a large amount of ground is in cnltivation with that staple. With such flatteriDg prospects as these business must soon revive, and the prices of the great staples of life oorue down to reason able rates. Russia and Iicland. If our foreign despatches may be relied on, Russia is about to try the power of her diplo macy on Great Britain. The Czar is affected at the condition of Ireland, and proposes a joint inquiry" on the part of Russia, the United States, and Prance, in conneotion with Great Britain, into the matter. This is a good offset to Poland and some other things in the past. The British Lion would onoe have growled at this proposed invasion of his lair, but he has become a very mild mannered beast lately, and there is no knowing what he will do. Mb. Wilson, the Chairman of the House Judi ciary Committee, reported yesterday that the Committee 'would not be ready to report on impeachment till after October 17 a statement which was followed by a resolution by Mr. Boutwell that Congress should meet again on that day. The debate on the resolution la In teresting. Of the nine members of the Commit tee, H appears that four believe, that the fcts justify the impeachment ot the President; five dl9DDt, and seven hold tunt he should be con demned and censured. Mr. Boutwell' resolu tion was postponed. LATEST FROM CUBA. . The Bala of the Hark Ocean floma Sua liended Santa, Anns lu Prlaou. Havana, July 4.
