VOL XXII.
[For the Globe.]
OBIT ART
THOMAS WILSON was born Tune 1782,
and died August 1866, aged 84 years
and 2 months.
Possessed naturally of a vigorous
constitution, and exempt from early
excesses of every kind, ho enjoyed as
a consequence a healthful and serene
old ago. Up to a few months previous
to hie death, ho was able to go about
the house, and his movements were
unusually active for ono of his years.
Ms mind, too, was vigorous, and was
well stored with general and religious
information; even in his advanced
years it was quick in its perceptions
and remarkably clear.
As a Christian, Father Wilson's char
acter was clearly marked. He was
taught at home the need of pardon and
regeneration, and accordingly when
he reached manhood, ho sought and
found the "pearl of great price," at a,
camp meeting near Carlisle. is em
inent piety is an excellent comment on
the promise that a "child trained in
the way be should go, will not, when
he is old, depart from it." From the
day of his conversion, his christian
character steadily strengthened and
developed, until, •at the time of his
death, it had assumed a beauty of
symmetry, and a degree of sublimity
rarely witnessed. Tho "fruits of the
Spirit" sprunn. ° up, grew and matured
in his heart. Like Enoch, "he walked
with God." In him "patience had her
perfect work." The trials which meet
a good man at every turn of life, and
so often overcome him, were, by him,
conquered and surmounted, by the
grace of patience; no provocation was
able to throw him off his guard. As
ho advanced in years his piety became
habitual, and his religious convictions
deepened, so that his religious life was
a beautiful illustration of the declara
tion of inspiration; "The path of the
just is as the shining light which shi.
neth more and more unto the perfect
day." His "conversation was in _Hea
ven." His "affections wore gradually
weaned from the objects of earth, and
were "set upon things above." The
Bibli) was his book. He read others,
but this he loved best and read most;
and his extensiVe and accurate knowl
edge of divine truth, showed with how
much care and attention he studied its
sacred pages. Ills familiarity with
the Scriptures was such as can only be
acquired by years of careful reading
and much earnest andfaithful prayer
twirgh - L — Aifd - WIAn {vas
unable to road, "grace was poured into
his lips," as he gave utterance to the
"exceeding great and precious promi
see," with which he had so studiously
stored his heart and memory.
Tho arms of his chriatian charity,
he opened wide enough to embrace all
orthodox and spiritual ehristians and
denominations. He was a Methodist,
and with the enlightened liberality of
a truo son of Wesley, while he was
faithful to his own convictions and
views of christian doctrine and duty,
ho recognized the grace of God, and
the image of Jesus wherever he beheld
them. Ho always "endeavored to.pre
serVe the spirit of unity in the bond:of
peace," remembering that "the whole
family in earth and heaven" aro called
after the same Lord "who gave him
self a ransom for all."
He was a man of prayer. .Much of
his latter life was spent upon his knees
and this accounts for his triumph over
self, and his exalted piety. Like the
Psalmist, "morning, noon and night"
he prayed; but not satisfied with this,
he retired frequently at other times
than these stated periods, to talk with
Jesus and commune with God • and
when, from such interviews, he return
ed, to converse with his .family and
friends, from the serenityand splendor
which appeared in his countenance,
they could easily see that he had been
on the ,Idount of Communion, and
had descended, like Moses, with. the
divine glory on his brow.
"At length the time came when Is
rael must die." A long life of beauti
ful piety needed but ono thing to make
it complete—a death of triumph, and
this God did net deny his Servant.—
Several months were spent in his room
and a few weeks entirely in his bed,
during which time,
,"though the out
ward man was perishing, yet the in
ward man was renewed day by day."
He was. now. being fully equipped for
the last conflict. For a long time ho
had been expecting the call of his Mas
ter, and was resigned and waiting, but
ho now became anxious to cross over
and enter in to rest. "Jesus" and "glo
ry" were momentarily on his tongue.
As ho neared the river, the fog which
overhitngs Jordan lifted and dispersed
and the passing forms of those who
"walk in white" were almost visible
before ho loft the body, and he realized
himself
,just "on the borders of the pro
mised hind." He took an affectionate
leave of all present, dropping a word
of council for each, and then calmly
and hopefully awaited the dismissal of
his spirit. Thus set the sun of this ho
ly man's life, throwing its last beams
back upon a life of fait li,obedience and
purity.
Why is it that the loved ones who
cross our pathway here. die and dis
appear? The answer is found in the
fact, that we are born for a higher and
nobler destiny than earth. There is
a land where all is fadeless as the un
dying spirit. Our buried ones aro
not lost, only gone before. Friend
ships formed on earth aro perpetuated
in heaven. The great doctrine of the
Bible is, the good shall meet again.

The Iron 'Olad Oath.
We bold that whoever, presenting
proper credentials, can take the follow
ing. oath, which a law -of Congress re
quires each member, in common with
all other federal office-holders to sub
scribe to, and refuses him admission if
he cannot truthfully take it, should be
admitted at once to his seat. This is
all the guarantee that should be re
quired of any person. The Constitu
tion declares that "each House shall be
the judge of the elections and qualifi
cations of its own members :"
"I do solemnly swear (or affirm)
that I have never voluntarily borne
arms against the United States since
I have been a citizen thereof; that I
have voluntarily given no aid, counte
nance, counsel or encouragement to
persons engaged in armed hostility
thereto; that I. have neither sought nor
accepted, nor attempted to exercise the
functions of any office whatever, under
any authority or pretended authority
in hostility to the United States;
that I have not yielded a voluntary
support to any pretended government,
authority, power or constitution with
in the United States, hostile or inimi
cal thereto. And I do further swear
(or affirm) that to the best of my know-.
ledge and ability I will support and
defend the Constitution of the United
States against all enemies, foreign and
domestic; that I will bear true faith
and allegiance to the same; that I take
this obligation freely, without any
mental reservation or purpose of eva
sion, and that I will well and faithfully
discharge the duties of the office on
which I am about to enter, so help me
God."
This is the oath by which such mon
as Dick Taylor, Alex. Stephens, and
other loading rebels who aro known
to our Government, would bo oxclu
dod, it elected. It was on account of
this oath that Semmes could not act
as Mayor of a Georgia city. Now,
why does Congress impose the condi
tion of negro suffrage upon those peo
ple before they can tako their place in
the Union ? it not enough that tho
men who can't take that oath should
be excluded? Let candid, thoughtful

Hear a Union Soldier Speak.
Wo have received the following
communication from a Union soldier,
who voted with the Union party dur
ing the war, and is with the National
Union party of to-day, when the rebels
have been subdued, and peace has
boon declared throughout the Union:
I enlisted to save the Union and the
Government. I was told that the
South wanted to got out of the Union,
and that we must whip them back. I
wanted the Union restored, and I
joined the Union party. But all this
was for nothing. The war still kept
on—we lost a half million of men—we
ruined the South, so it is worth noth
ing almost—they submitted—we dis
banded our armies,the South laid down
her arms and has gone to work, and
now these Radicals say the South is
out of the Union, and they are going
to, keep her out for fear she will vote
against them. They say they would
rather see a negro vote than a rebel,
but I say if a negro has the right to
vote ho has also a right to hold some
of their offices.
I can't see what we gained by war.
When we entered into the army we
took an oath that we would defend the
Government of all enemies whichsoev
er may oppose. What greater one•
mien has the Government than those
infernal Radicals ? They are the big
gest enemies , the. U. S.. Government
over had. They are right in our
midst, and soldiers, let us beware of
these scoundrels
I find out the "good old times" wore

lam taxed to help support free no

themselves—and, worse than all, 1 ant
taxed to pay intorost money to rich
bond-holders, who live in ease, whose
hands aro soft, who pay no taxes, yet
live on what all of us poor people earn.
Now what chance would a poor man
have under a Radical Government ?
A chance to work hard and die poor.
Therefore every soldier, and every
good citizen of the United States
should strive, and do his duty at the
polls, not to be governed by a Radical
Congress. A SOLDIER.

What Would the Agitators Have ?
Why should the country be kept in
this wild and dangerous political tur
moil 7 The agitators who have boon
so long engaged in exciting the popu
lar passions have brought before us no
definite end which they propose to ef
fect by the course they aro pursuing,
and have sot for themselves no limits,
after reaching which they will permit
the institutions of the country to re
sume their proper *working, and the
people to return to such political habits
as aro necessary to the existence of
popular government. They agitate
merely for the purpose :of agitation
and to secure a renewed lease of polit
ical power. Knowing the ease with
which the feelings of the North can at
this tithe ho aroused, and having the
fuel at hand with which the fires of
passion can he constantly renewed,
they have sot about establishing a par
ty whose basis is fixed, not in the rea
son or in the principles of the nation,
not in adherence to the Constitution
or respect for public rights, but in feel
ings of revenge and animosity, and in
dogmas of a narrow sectionalism. Ever
since they deserted the . , Lincoln plat
form of 1864, they hatro been unable
to set forth any definite or comprehen.
sive plan of policy to which they could
demand public assent, and with the
carrying out of which they were will
ing to identify their party existence.
So far as relatea to the political ne.
tion of the Congressional majority,
nothing whatever was established, and
everything was loft in precisely such a
condition as to invite the turmoil which
is now operating so adversely to the
national welfare. A Constitutional.
Amendment was finally put before the
States for ratification, but the leading
agitators gave us distinctly to under
stand that that would settle nothing
but itself—that its confirmation would
not secure the reconstruction of the
Union, or the admission of the Suoth
ern States to their legitimate political
status. Immediately beside it, or close
behind it, we saw other and still other
conditions waiting their turn to be
brought to the foreground; we saw
measures that would necessarily per
petuate dissension, continue sectional
division, and add intensity to the wild
and dangerous political turmoil already
existing.
Leading agitators and opponents of
the Administration stood iaady with
numberless schemes, each of` •them tho
hataing-egg of other sehomes, - but`alt
of them, though diverse enough in
form, having the same tendency and a
similar design. There aro still as un
fixed as ever, as to tho conditions of
peace and tho terms of national restor
ation. Some, like Phillips and Greeley,
put negro suffrage in the front as the
essential thing; others, like the New
Orleans Conventionists, beside enfran
chising the blacks, would disfranchise
the whites of the South; some, like
Thad. Stevens, (who has again been
heard upon the subject,) would enforce
a severe and extensive system of con
fiscation; others, in addition to confis
cating the property of the whites,
would donate the lands of the South
freely to the blacks; some insist on the
hanging of Jeff. Davis the groat object
to be attained; others, like Butler, in
addition to hanging Davis, would hang
almost everybody else; some would
establish military rule over the South
ern States; others would reduce them
to tho condition of Territories; some
would keep these States out of the
Union until they do "justice" to the
negro by law, and others would keep
thorn out until that justice has become
a realized, practical and universal fact;
some would punish the Southern peo
ple until they love the Northerners;
others would continue to punish them
until they can prove their love, and
still others would persecute them on.
til they can demonstrate that their love
will be perpetual. It all these points
could be wrought out into a platform,
it would, perhaps, suit the agitators
until some now planks could be brought
forward, and some wilder ideas find
expression. But thus far we can find
them fixing upon nothing as their do.

directions for their end, we can - discov.
or nothing anywhere but chaes.—Neto
York Times.
Parson Brownlow speaks.
This man who proposes to be a cler
gyman in tho service of Christ, is ono
of an "electioneering expedition," as
ho says, which is following in the wake
of the President "to try and wipe out
the moccasin tracks of Andy Johnson
and Wm. 11. Seward." Here are• his
loyal, Christian sentiments, as ho ex
pressed-them in Now York. Wo ad
vise our readers to ponder them, as ho
is a good sample of the men who insult
our President. Parson • knows what
he is after when he says sell the South
ern lands to mon who respect the old
flag:
"Now if by l t heir wickedness the
Rebels force another war upon the
country, which I think they will do
and are determined to do, and you,
the loyal North, send down another
army to invade our country and sup
press the Rebellion, I ask,
as I remark
ed last night in Trenton, that you come
in three grand divisions, the first arm
ed with heavy artillery and small arms
to do the killing. ("Amen I") Yes,
amen, may the fjord answer your
prayer. (Laughter.) Let tito second
grand division come erittipped with
torches and turponi. to do the burn
ing; and the third with surveyors'
compases and chains to lay out the lands
into small parcels, and sell it to defray
the expenses of the war—sell it to men
who respect the old flag." (Applause.)
The Question at Issue.
The Radical agitators try to distract
the public mind as to the real matter
at stake, and divert attention from
their own untenable position, by ma
king a noise and confusion concerning
such passing incidents as they can use
for inflaming the popular passions.
Were the simple question kept before,
the American people of restoring the
Union of States according to tho Con
stitution—of re-establishing in com
plete order the system of Government
bequeathed to us by its founders; and
were this question discussed by appeals
to the reason, to justice : and to consti
tutional principles, wo have not a shad
ow of doubt that it would be Bottled
speedily and decisively; nor have wo
a moment's doubt that nine-tenths of
the people would pronounce in unmis
takable tones for the immediate restor
ation of that "more perfect Union"
which our national charter established
three-quarters of a century ago. But
the agitators harp upon everything
else but this great matter, and try so
to obfuscate the popular judgment as
to make it impossible to obtain a de
cision upon the vital point at issue.
They got up perpetual excitements
about questions personal to the Presi
dent, about questions personal to his
loading supporters, about irrelevant
questions of local administration in the
South, about the political and social re
lations of the nogroes, about Executive
usurpations, about party supremacy,
and so forth. They misrepresent and
falsify the purposes of tho Constitution
al Unionists by saying that wo would
give "rebels" the power to rule the
country; that we would permit the
blacks to be trampled upon or re-en
slaved by the rebels, and that wo would
barter away the glorious results ac
quired by Northern arms in the war.
They appeal to the sectional prejudices
which still unfortunately exist; they
Stir up warlike passions which have
not yet had time to die away entirely,
and they play upon all those unrea
soning feeling of human nature which,
of all things human, can be most easily
touched and most deeply affected. By
means such as these, vigorously and
Constantly applied, the agitators have
managed to delude largo numbers of
-thong-hum:l pooplo as "La the rcal_quelf• -
tion at issue, and to confuse and excite
the public mind so as to make an in
telligent and worthy judgment the
most difficult of all things.
But so long as the fundamental point
at issue is unsettled, the people must
be
,constantly brought back to it by
those who comprehend it and appreci
ate its value. Why should the Union
not be restored in all its integrity and
glory ? Why should the States that
have complied with the terms of the
Constitution not be admitted to its
privileges? Why should the people of
the South, who have. given in their al
legiance as citizens, not bo permitted
to participate in the rights of citizens?
These are the points, or rather this is
the point; for, in fact, all the questions
aro the same in essence and in the end.
We hope this vital issue will bo kept
exclusively in view. It was the only
question considered or acted upon by
the Philadelphia Convention, and that
eminent body deserves as , much eredit
for ignoring those things which are ir
relevant as for applying itself earnest
ly
- to that which is fundamental. By
our following its lead in this respect,
and by the adoption of a similar course
on the part of the Constitutional Un
ionists thorughout the country, it will
not take a long time so to impress the
Northern peope that they will bring
their whole power to boar for tho ac
complishment of an object so long de
ferred, yet so dear to all our hearts
and hopes—the perfect restoration of
our. glorious Union.. For this it is for
which wo struggle, and this is the tri
umph which we must soon achieve.—

SO LIT IIERN EXTERMINATION.—Parson
Brownlow, of Tennessee, and Ben. But
lor, of Massachusetts, one the represen
tative radical of the South and the
other the representative radical of the
North, boldly demand the extermina
tion of the mass of tho southerners.
Wo mention these men particularly,
because they aro outspoken and do not
disguise their animosity and purpose;
but the other radical leaders, as Wade,
Stevens, Wilson, Banks, Chadler; Sum
ner, Colfax, and others, aro equally as
malignant and destructive. It is only
necessary to road the speeches of any
of these vindictive Jacobins to learn
the purposo of the radical party. They
hate the Southern people—not on ac
count of the war, for !,hey always did
hate them—and nothing will satisfy
these malicious demagogues short of
extermination. They do not, know the
meaning of the words magnanimity or
reconciliation. They have no more
Christian spirit than the vandals of a
barbarous age or the bloody Jacobins
of the French Revolution. Woe be to
the South and the whole country lithos()
men aro permitted to rule. Wo should
have a reign of terror, civil War, and
universal ruin. The only hope we have
is that the people of the North, and
particularly the great central States,
will have common sense and patriot
ism enough to prevent such a catas
trophe by electing to Congress a differ
ent class of men ut the common elec

The Radical Amendment and Negro
suffrage.
The Constitution of the United
. ,
States,as it stands at present, article 1,
section 2, says :
"The House of Representatives ehall
bo composed of members chosen every
Second year by the people of the Bev
oral States, and the electors in each
State shall have the qualifications regal-,
site for electors of the most
,numerous
branch of the State Legislature."
In other words, whatever qualifica
tions a State may prescribe as requis
ite to entitle a man to vote for a mem
ber of its Legislature shall apply to all
electors of congressmen or other elec—
tive officers of the Federal govern
ment, leaving the matter of proscrib
ing the qualifications of all voters en
tirely to the States: This was the
doctrine of the framers of the Consti
tution and the fathers and founders of
the Republic.
But a new order of things must now
bo introduced. .A wiser generation
than the founders of the government
has arisen, and now it is deemed ex-,
pedient to so alter the Constitution as
to compel the States to obey the cen
tral powers of the government in re ,
spect to the qualifications of voters.
Under the Constitition as it is, the
States acting as such, are not willing
to grant the right of suffrage to
groes ; therefore, the Constitution
must be so changed as to compel the
States to recognize the negro as a
"citizen," and, of course, to grant him
the right to vote, for that right cannot
be denied to a "citizen." It, is now
proposed to so alter the Federal 0011;
siltation as to declare all negroes
"citizens of the United States' and of
the State wherein they reside," and to
compel the States, respectively, to re
cognize them as such citizens, thus
utterly depriving the States of the
right to proscribe even the. "qualified
tions requisite for electors of the most
numerous branch of the State Legisla
ture." In fac.lt, under the proposed
Radical amendment to the Constitu
tion, the States wilt not have the privi
lege of prescribing the qualifications of
electors for any State, county, or mu
nicipal officers. Read the,first section
of this proposed amendment :
"All persons born or naturalized in
the United States, and subject to the
jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the
in; Lna
they reside. No State shall make or
enforce any law which shall abridge the
privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States: Nor shall any State
deprive any person of life, liberty, or
property without duo process of law,
nor deny to any person witbin its ju
risdiction the equal protection of the
laws."
The first clause makes a citizen of
the United States and of the State in
which ho lives of every negro over
twenty ono years of ago, -born- in tho
United States, and of all other nogroes
Who may becoine "naturalized," and
the second forbids any State to make
or enforce any law "abridging" the
privileges pertaining to , such citizen,
ship. All existing State laws that do
not accord to the negro the full right-
Of citizenship, with the right to votes
etc., will, olcourso, be repealed or in
validated by this amendment, if it be
ratified, and whether a State pass any
law giving the negro a right to vote
or not, Congress can, in par/Fin:Moo of
this amendment, enact laws fully en
franchising him and compellint , the
people of any and all the States Co per
mit him to vote; for remember, after
the ratification of this amendment, it
will bedomo a part of the "supreme
law of the land." The Constitution,
and the cry of unconstitutionality
against a law of Congress made in
pursuance of it, cannot be raised, nor
can the courts pronounce such a law
uncenstitutional. The ratification of
this amendment fastens negro suffrage
upon every State and Territory in the
United States, no matter what the peo
ple or Legislature of either may think,
say, or do, to the contrary! This is no
idlo statement, no mere electioneerin,
talk, but a simple and undeniable fact,
as any intelligent Man may •learn by
reading and duly considering the pur
port and moaning of the section we
have quoted front the proposed Radic
al amendment. What in human lan•
guage could be plainer ? "All persons,
born or naturalized in the United
States are citizens of the United
States," and not only such, but "citi
zens of the States wherein they :re•
side." Will any ono deny that the
incorporation of this language into the
Constitution of the United States, "the
supreme law of the land," will make
"citizens" of the negroos ? And if it
will make them citizens, will any ono
presume to say that, under a republi
can government, a "citizen" can be
prevented from exercising "the privi
leges and immunities" of citizens,
among which, unquestionably, are the
"privileges" of voting, sitting on jtirics,
holding office,
,antr enjoying all the
rights over hitherto enjoyed by any
white man in the United States The
Radicals may endeavor to evade the
question, or avoid the real issue, with
all their ingenuity, but they can't, get
rid of the very plain fact , that their
proposed amendment will, if ratified,
make a legal voter of every adult male
negro in the. United States, saving
only the few among us of foreign birth,
and oven these may becoine naturaliz,
ed "citizens ;" for this amendment pro
poses an utter alteration of the negro
status. "At ono fell swoop," it makes
a white man of ()Very negrojwithin the

litical purposes, as the fairest Cauca
sian on this continent! ,Such is the
truth respecting the intent and mean
of the amendment to the Federal Con
stitution, proposed by the Radicals as
a sine qua non in the reconstruction or
restoration of the Union. '
The result of the contest between
the Radicals and the Conservatives
will determine the fate of this' amend
ment. The success of the Radical's
will; most probably, result in the en.
grafting of this principle of negro citi
zenship and negro suffrage upon the
organic and supreme law of' the Uni
ted' States, and will pave the way to
universal negro equality,. If this
amendment - shall beconie a part of our
fundamental law ' the time Will not bo
long ere we shallsee negroes in our
legislative halls and in magisterial po
sitions. Under the operations of this
proposed now feature in the Constitu
tion, there are several congressional
districts in the southern States 'in
which tho negroes are sufficiently
numerous to . elect men of their own
race to represent them in Congress, to
fill the office of judges, justices of the
peace, members of the State Legisla-*
turn, etc., and there are localities in
other States where the derbies" could
elect "persons of color" to local offices.

mßev. Henry Ward Beecher has
written another letter, in which ho ut

"It is not the North that chiefly
needs the restoration of the Govern

action. Either the advantages of
Union aro fallacious, or thecontinuons
exclusion of the South from it will
breed disorder, make the future re
union more difficult, and especially
subject the freedmen to the very
worst conditions of society which can
well exist. No army, no government,
and no earthly power can compel the
South to treat four znillion•men justly,
if the inhabitants [whether rightly or
wrongly] regard those men as th,o
cause, or even the occasion of their
unhappiness and disfranchisement.
But no army, or government, or pow
er will be required, when Southern so
ciety is restored, occupied, and pros.
poring in the renewed Union. Then
the negro will be felt to be necessary

securing for him favorable treatment
