TO TJI OrPFORTICKB OW TNZ OOVICiNMENT -- 178 - ttiwirrein4 - wttlifittr iiipiiec, but without indignatiop, theitroclantationof the President of the Bth of Ju1y,•188.4. The supporters of the Administration are responsible to the counpry for WI conduct; and it is their right and duty to check the encroachments of the Executive on the au thority of Congress and to require it to con fine itself to its proper sphere. It is impossible to pass in silence this proclamation without neitleefehrg that du ty ; and, having taken as much responsi bility, as any others in supporting the Administration, we arenat disposed to ,fail in the other duty of asserting the rights of Congress. The PresidenT did not sign the bill "to guarantee to certain • States whose Governments have been usur.ped a re ,publioan form of Government," paused by the supporters of his Administration in both. Houses of Congress after - mature deliberation. The bill.did not, therefore, become a law, and it is, therefore, nothing. The proclamation is neither an approval nor's veto of,jlie bill, it is, therefore a doc ument unkn'Srn to the laws and Comnitutioa of the United States. So far at it contains en apology for not signing the bill, it is a political manifesto against the friends of the Government. So far as it proposes to execute the 'bill which is not a law, it is &grave Executive usurpation. It Is fitting that the facts necessary to en ablethe friends of the Administratton to appreciate the apology and the ueurßatiou before them. The proclamation says Aud whereas thlt s a id bill wan presented to the President of the United States fur Its appro val less than ono bout before the sine die ad journment of said session and was not signed by him. If that be accurate, still this bill was presented with ether bills which were sign ed... Wirhin that hour, the time for the sine do adjournment was three times postponed by the vote of both houses; and the least intimation of a desire fur more time by the President to consider this bill would nave secured a further postponement, • Yet the Committee sent to ascertain if the President had any further eonimunlca tion for the louse of Representatives repor ted that he had none; and the friends of the bill, who had anxiously waited on hint to ascertain its fate, bud slready been inform ed that the President had resolved nut to sign it. The time of presentation, therefore, had nothing to do with his failure to approve The hill had been discussed and considered for more than amatonth in the House of limp resentatives, which it passed on the 4th of May ;It was repelled to the Senate on the 27th of May without rowerial amend ment, and passed the Senate absolutely as it came from the (louse on the 2nd of July. Igettrttece of its contents is out of the question. Indeed, at his request, a draft of a bill substantially the same in all material points and identical in the points objected to by the proclamation, had been laid before him, for hie coneideratiolfin the winter of 1862- 1888. There is, therefore no reason to' suppose the provisiotis of the bill took the Presi dent by surprise. On the oontrary, we have reason to be lieve them to have been well known that this method of preventing the bill from ba mbinia law withopt the constitutional responsibillity of a veto, had been resolv ed on long before thi bill bad passed the Senate. We are informed by s gentleman entitled to entire andidencershst before the 22nd of June in New Orleans it was stated by a member of Gen. Banks' staff, in the pres ence of other gentlemen in official position, tea senator Doolittle bad written a letter to•the department that .the House rowan eiruation bill would be•dtsved in the Senate to s period too late ih the session to require the President to veto it in order to defeat -fit, arid that Mr. Lincoln would retain the bill if neesesary, and thereby defeat It. " The eiperienec of Senator Wade, 4LI hie various efforts to get the bill uuiddred in the Senate, wu quite in aooo rda with that plan, and the fate of the bill wilt* io eurately predicted by letters received from New Orleans before it had • passed the Senate. Had the proclamation stopped there, it would have been one other defeat of the will of the people by an Eiecutivo perversion of= the Constitution. ant it goes further. The Transient says. And where X's the mid , bill contains_, among other Wags, a plan for Metering the States in rebellion to their proper practical relation in the Union, 'Wish plan expresses the sense of Co upon thst subject, =a which plan it la wow thought lit to lay before the people for - their eedsideration— - 13y whet authorit) , of the Constitution `ln what forme ?

In neither Louisiana' nor Arkansas, be fore Bank's defeat, did the United States control half the territory or haft the popu lat ion. In Louisiana. General Banks' proc lamation candidly declared: "The funds: mental /woof the State'is martial law." On that foundation of freedom, be erected what the President calls ”the free Count-J.- 10ton and government of Louisiana." But of this State, whose fundamental law was martial law,.only sixteen parishes out , of forty-eight parishes were held by the United States ; and in five of the sixteen we field only our camps. The eleven parishes we substantially held at 238,185 Inhabitants: the residue of the States not bold by us 575,617. M the farce called an election, the offs core of Gen. Nuke returned that 11,346' ballots were cast ; but whether any or by whom the people of the United States bare no legal assurance ; but it is probable that 4,000 were cast by soldiers or employees of the ritifed Stales, military or municipal but none according to any law, State or Na tional, and 7,000 ballots represent the State of Louisiana. Suoh ht the free Constitution and Govern meat of Lonisiana ; and like it that of Ar konetta. • Nothing but the failure of a military expo ditibndeprived us eibamta,Liket_the. swamps of ?Minds, and before WEST: dential election, like ones may be organized in every rebel State where the United States have a camp. The President,. by preventing thin bill from becoming a law, holds the electoral votes of the rebel States at the dictation of his oersonal ambitibn. /f those voles turn _ the balance in, his favor, is to he supposed that hie compe titor, defeated by such 'means will ac quiesce? If the rebel majority assert their suprem acy in those Stains, and send votes which elect an enemy of the Government will he not repeal his claims ? • And is not that civil war for the Pres idency, inaugurated by the votes 'of rebel States,? Seriously impressed with these dangers, Congress, "the proper Constitutional au thority," formally declared that there are no State Governthents in the rebel States, and provided for their erection at a proper time ; and both-the Senate and Rouse of Representatives rejeoted the Senators and Representatives chosen under the authority of what the President calla the free Consti tution and Government of 'Arkansas. The President's proclamation "holds for naught" thie Judgment; and discards the au thority of the Supreme Court, and strides headlong toward the anarchy his proclama tion of the Bth of December inaugurated. If electors for Presidenthe allowed to bb chosen in,either of•those States, a sinisteo light will be east on the motives which in duced the President to "hold for naught" the will of Congress rather than this Gov ernment in Louisiana andArkaneas. The' edgment of Congress which the President defies was the exerolse of ,an au thority exclusively vested in Congress by the Constitution to determine what is the established Government in a State, and in its own nature and by the highest judicial authority binding on all other departments of the Government. Thda dli upreme Court has formally deolared that uer the fourth section of the sth ar ticle of the Constitution, requiring the Uni ted States to guarantee to every State a republican form of government, it rats with Congress to decide what government is the ee tabliehed one in a State," and when Senators and Representatives of a State are admitted in to the councils o 4 C. the Union, the authority of the Government under which they are appointed as well as its republican character, is recogniz ed by the proper oolutitutima au:hoses' w. and its decitionie binding on every other Depart ment of the Government, and could not be questioned in a judicialtribnnal. It is tree that the contest in this case did not last ug enough to bring the matter to this is sue, and as no Senators or Representatives were eleoted tinder the authority of the Government of which Mr. Dorr was the head, Congress was not called upon to de cide thenontroversy- Yet the right to de cide is placed there Smiths president's proclamation of the Bth of tamembir, formally deolares that uWhethertsembers sent to congress, tram any Stets sheabil admitted to seate,"consti tutionellY rests exclusively with thereupon tire Rouses, and not to iby, extent 'filth the Ezeoutive." And that Is not the less true ieeausi wholly inconsistent with the President's assumption in that proclamation ofit ..right to institute and recognise State Govern ment. in the rebel Stains, nor because the Prceldcnt is unable, to percetv• at his BELLEFONTE, PA,, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1864. reeoliiition is a nulity if it be not conclu sive on CongnitufA9k.

Thi•Pret4deut proceeds to express his un willingoese "to deolare a constitutional competency in Congress to abolish slavery in States," as another 'reason formot signing the bill. But the bill nowhere proposes to abolish slavery in the States. The bill did provide that all slaves id' the rebel States should Weianutaitted. But ea the President bad already signed three bills inanutnitting several classes of slaves in States, It is not oonceived possi ble thnt he entertained any scruples touch ing that provision of the bill reepecting which he is silent. Ho bad already himself assumed a right b _moolamation to free much the larger number of sieves in the rebel States, undo the authOrity given bin' by Congrses-ttae military power to suppress tko,rebellion and it is quite inconeeivablp-that the Presi— dent should think Con.fs should vest in •oo 1 . • • on • noLezaralse It is the more nintelligitke-from the fact that, except in respect to a small part of Virginia and Louisiana, the bill covered on ly what the Proclamation dovered—edded a Congressional title and judicial remedies by law to the disputed title under the procla mation, and perfected the work the Presi dent professed to be so anxious to acoom pliah. Slavery as an Institution can be abolished . by a change of the Constitution df the Uni ted States, °rot' the law of the State; and this is the principle of the bill. ' It required the new Constitution of the State to provide for that prohibition, and the President in the face of his own procla mation, does not venture to object to insist ing on that condition— yet he defeated the only provision imposing it I But when he describes himself, in spite, of this great blow at emancipation, as sin cerely hoping and expecting that a consti tutional amendment abolishing slavery throughout the nation maybe adopted." we courtousiy inquire on what his expectations rest, after the vote of the House of Repre sentatives at the recent session, and in .the face df the political complexion of morelban enough of the States to prevent the possi bility of its adoption within any reasonable. time; and why he did not indulge the sin cere hopes with so large an instalment of the bleising as his approval of the bill would . have secured. After this assignment of his reason for preventing the bill from. becoming a law, the President proceeds to declare hie pur pose to mettle it as a law by Ais plenary dic tatorial power. • . Ifulays : Nevertheless! am fully satisfied with the ve lem for restoration contained in the bill one lan for the loyal people of anYState choosing opt it ; and that I am , and at all times shall is, prepared to give the Enmities aid and assistance to anyAnch people so soon as the military resistance tothe United Stites shall have been suppressed in any such State and the people thereof shall have sufficiently reternid to their obedience to the Constitution and the laws of the United States ; in which eases Military Governors will be appointed, with directions to proceed according to the bill. A more studied outrage on the legislative authority of the people has never been pip , petrated. Congress passed a bill; the President re fused to approve it, and then by proclama tion put as much of it in force as he sees fit. and proposes to extmute those parts by of ficers unknown to the laws of the United States and not subject to the confirmation of the Senate! The bill directed the appointment of Pro visional Governors by and with the advice of the Senate. ' The President after defeating the,‘, proposes to appoint without law, and ith ont the advice and consent of the Bate, Ati(itary Governors for the rebel &ION! e Ile has already exercised this dictatt rial usurpation in Louisiana, and he detested the bill to prevent its limitation. Henceforth we must regard the following precedent of the Presidential law -of the rebel States:- Exy. utlys nu4vr, , • Winuivorox, Enrob - ir, 864. J Hie ,Excellency Niiskael nuke., Governor of Lou- Until further °Haig, you are hereby invested with the powers exercised hitherto by the mili tary Governor of Louisiana. Yours, ABRAHAM LINCOLN." This Michael Hahn is no offioer of the United States, the President without law, without the advice and consent , of the Sen ate, hy a private note not evennountersign ed by the Secretary of State, makes 4110,M_ dictator of Louisiana! The bill provided for the civil administra tion of the Lime of the State—till It should be in a fie temper to govern itheLf, repealing all.lawe recognising slavery, and making all m;n equal before the law. 'These benetiolent provisions the President has annulled. People will die, and marry and transfer property, and buy and sell, and t 6 these sots of civil life, courts and officers of the law are neoesseyy. Congress legisla ted for these necessary things, and the Pres ident deprives them of the protection of the • law! • The President's purpose to instruct Lis Military Governors "to proceed acsrading to the bill "--a makeshift to calm the dis appointment its defeat has occasioned, is not merely a grave usurpation but • trans parent delusion.

' But wbsn we come to the guarantees of future peace which Congress meant to enact, the forms, as well as the substatloe of the bill, tuna ;let to the President's will that none should be imposed. It was the solemn resolve of Congress to protect the loyal men of the nation against three great dangers, (1) the return to power of the guilty Leaders of the rebellion, (2) the continuance of slavery; and (8) the bur den of the rebel debt. Congress regwirid assent to thole provi sions by Convention - orthe State ; and if refused, it was to be dissolved. The President " holds for nangfek."_tleat rescue' of Congrecs, immense hate unwilling f! to be inflexibly completed to anyone plan of restoration," and the people of the hinited• States are not to be allowed to protect them eelves unless their enemies agree to it. The order to proceed according to the bill is therefore merely at the will of the rebel States; and they have the option to reject' it, accept the proclamation of the BthotrDe 7 comber, and demand the Preside r 's - wog ration ! • ' Mark the contrast! The bill required a majority, the procimmilloti fib satisfied with one-tenth; 'the hill requires one oath, the proolammiuer,linothdi; the bill ascertains voters hylegistering, the proclamation bx gueus , the bill exacts adherenoe to existing of others ; the bill governs the rebel:States by iair, equalizing all before it, the proolama Lion cothnits them to the lawless discretion of military Governors and provost marshals ; the_b.Slforbike electors for President, the praehuretion-erni-tinfest-etta us with civil war for the admission or exclu sion of such votes ; the bill exacted exclu sion of dangerous enemies from power and the relief of the nation from the rebel debt, and the prohibition of slavery, ferevest so that the suppression of the rebellion will double our resources to bear or pay the na tional debt, free the masses from the old domination of the rebel leaders, and eradi cate the cause Of the war: the proolamatign secures neither pf these guaranties. It is silent respecting the rebel debt and the political exclusion of rebel leaders ; leaving slavers, exactly where it was by law at.the outbreak of the rebellion, and adds no guarantee even of the freedom of the slaves he undertook to manumit. It is summed up in an iillegal oath, with out a sanction and therefore void. The oath is to support all proclamations of the President during the rebollionlmving reference to eaves. Any Government is to be accepted st the heads of one-tenth of the people contrave ning that oath. Now'that oath neither secures the abolition of slavery nor adds security to the freedom of the slave,* the President declared free. It does not secure the abolition of slavery ; for the prodamation of freedom merely pro fessed to free certain slaves while it recog nised the institution. Every Constitution of the rebel States at the outbreak of the rebellion may-be adop ted without the change of a letter for none of them contravene that proclardation ; none of them establish slavery. It adds no security to the freedom of the slaves, For their title is the proclamation of free dom. If it be unconstitutional. an oath to sup port it is void Whether Constitutional or not, the oath is without authority of law. and therefore void. If it be valid and observed, it exacts no enactment by the State, either in law or Constitution, to add a State guaranty to the proclamation title; and the right of s slave to freedom is kn open guestiOn before the State courts on the relative authority of the State law end the proclamation. If the oath binds the one-tenth who take it. it is not exacted of the other nine-tenths who suceeed to the control of the State Gov ernment. so that it is annulled instantly by the act of recognition. What the State orurts would say of the prollatnation, who can doubt? But the master would not go into court— he would seise hie slave. What the Supreme Codrt would say, who osn tell? When and how le the question to got there. No habeas eorpue lies for him ins United States court, and the President defeated with this bill its extension of that writ to this ease. Such are the fruits of this rash and fatal act of the President—a blow at the friends of his Administration, at the righte of hu manity, and at the principles of republican government. The P resident has greatly presumed on, lha forbearance which the supporters of his Administration lures so long practiced, in view of the ard i poup conflict in which wp are engaged, died the reckless ferocity of our political opponents. ' But he must understand that Our support is of a osule and not of a man ; that the minority of Congratkskt,peramonat and must be respected; that the whole body of the Union men of Congress will not submit to be impeached by him 04 rash and uncon stitutional legislation; and if he wishes our support he must confine himself to his exec utive duties—to obey and execute, not make the laira—to suppress by,artns armed rebel lion. monism polltiosl reorganisation to Congress. If the supporters of the Government fail to Inaba on this they beoomeresponsible for the usurpation which they fail to rebuke, and are Justly' liable to the indignation of the people whose right' and security, com mitted to their keeping, they sacrifice. . Let them ooneider the remedy for these usurpations, and baying found it, fearlessly execute it. • B. P. WADE, Chairmen i!ieneteCommittee. H.

Data WATCHMAN :-011 the morning of the 27th I got on bard the train for Elmi ra, at which pities I arrived half past one o'clock, P. M., the samtsday. The country, el rotas is very hilly and monntlinous,. though oecanionally; - there le to be seen ap parently a good farm, and a pleasantly dated town at the base of a, hill or Lain; presenting civilisation to casual ob servers; as they are Journeying along to . points of destination. Elmira , is handsom ely, and prhmipbtAtuilt_on_ffit .ritcat bank. of the Chemunlk River, though &portion of It, called the fift,h, ward is situate on the bank. Thitsparrof the city was formerly Sefilbpott, being its . proper ep 7 pelbsffion previous to the consolidation. e streets of the city are wide and com modious, running nearly North, South, Emil and West. At the South east end 'of the place there is a large space of ground (say ten acres), enclosed with a plank fence, Come fifteen feet, from the surface, contain ing about eleven thousand "rebel prison ers." Their tents look neat and clean, their s trent e a re_p_olleedihree_ thain . jk_yeek,Lard everything about their camp presents a fine appearance, though some of the men look horrid dirty. Fro& five to fifteen.ef their number t o re daily klaid beneath the clods of the Ntooillawn Cemetery. They are convey ed from the box house, in Camp, to t.e Cemetry in an army wagon, sometimes pil ed three and four boxes h;ght In order that the citizens may not see the barbarous mauner in which, these poor fellows are taken to their graves, they have taken great pains to covhi the wagon with muslin, eo that you, nor I, nor no one else would be tell What they are loaded with. Of late they burry them at night or Mike dusk of the. evening., The men who are hale and halcyon are taken out in companies to the mess-houses for their rations, and on seeing them return, they have in one band some "hard tack,'" and in the other, snob as have tins, (and I tell you they are few,) some kind of soup. Some of these prison ers area the wealthiest stock in the South ern Confederacy. - One young man from Pe tersburg. offers security on property to the amount of $6',000 if the officers in charge will set him free. Several others; who are said to be New Orleans brokers, offer $50,- 000 each, in Lincoln gecedibacius, or $lO,OOO In gold to get out of *e pandimonium of which the; are now culprits. These offer, of course; are not going to be accepted, but the officers in okarge declare they will be free by the oath of alkg anus. This they are delermined not to do, and out of the 11,000, as yet, only two have taken the oath. Those in the enclosure are • perfect show ; people from all sections are visiting Elmira to get • view of the men, and, much to their_dis appointment,:they are not allowed to com municate with them in •ny way. In eon sequenoe of this fact., • good honest repub lican, ironically speaking, was permitted to erect an observatory opposite the enclosure 'in order that he might, in a few days, be come a man of affluent circumstances, and spend si'Re fourth of hie lucre for the *- Motion 'of Father Abraham. The lot, ob servatory, dco., cost, in the aggregate, five hundredoners, and in four weeks, he realised Us entire expenditures and had a dividend of $7,50'. Toss can see the show for one dime. A NSORO VICTIM or TUC DUAPT.—How Its FaLr.—The Lacrosse (Wis.) Democrat, a place where they have lately been drafting says : Among the victims of the late draft in this city, was Sam, a graceful motioned contraband who was given leave to leave the Solith last Spring and become a freeman "up Norf 1" Early in the Spring he did idioms at the Barrington House. Later in the season he hoed gardens, got married, and blacked stoves till they rivaled the gloss on his cheeks.- Monday he was draf ted, on Tuesday served with a notice to be at the rendezvous within ten days along with his white briithern, or be consideream deserter. Ile took the notice to a friend, who read it and made:bim understand the nature thereof.
