OPINIONS OF THE PRESS
[Under this head we give opinions of lead
ing journals, that our readers may see more
than one side of a question.]
[From the Now York Lteraid.]
What is the Real Position of the
Country.
Before the secessionists of the South
raised the standard of revolt against
the Government. of the United States
and forced the Southern people into
rebellion, there were two parties in
the country, wide apart in principle,
but ur.ited on the main object sought
to be accomplished by each—namely,
the destruetion of the Constitution and
the disruption of the Union. These par
ties were the radical abolition fanatics
of the North and the radical slavery
extension fire-eaters of the South. At
that time the seeds of rebellion were
sown in the free States by Wendell
'Phillips, who denounced the Constitu
tion of the United States as a league
with hell and a convenant with the dev
il, and by the Jacobins of the Tribune
school, who wrote poetry inciting peo
ple to "tear down the flaunting lie"—
meaning the American flag—and prose
vindicating the sacred right of seces
sion. Ia the slave States the corres
ponding work was done by the Yon
cevs, Lamers, and filetts, and by such
papers as the ChUvleston Mercury and
Richmond Enquirer.
These same two parties exist to-day
and as before the war they worked for
the same end, the destruction of the
Union, so now the war is ended, they
labor tor a common object—to obstruct
the restoration of the Union. Ono of
these parties is represented at the
North to-day by Butler, Chandler,
Stevens, and Phillips, with such men
as Hamilton and Brownlow as their
attics in the South; and the other, at
the South, by Wade Hampton, Hum
phreys, Monroe, and Dawson, With
Fernando Wood, Valtandigkam, Hoff-
Seymour, Clymer., and the Cop
perhead organs generally, as their al
lies in the North.
Both these parties are engaged in
makit.g violent appeals to the passions
and prejudices of the people of either
section of the Union and in preaching
up another rebellion. The Northern
wing of the Jacobin army is threaten-'
ing the impeachment of the President, I
the seizure of the Government by Con
gress and the destruction of General
Grant and the regular army. The
Southern and Copperhead wing is talk
ing about forcing the members of the
ex-rebel States into Congres at the
point of the bayonet. So far as any
real danger is eoncerned,shese threats
and boastings are merebalderdash,and
amount to nothing.
The people hit7e settled that, ques
tion very decisively in the recent elec
tions by declaring in, favor of the Con
gressional solution of the problem of
restoration, as embodied in the Con
stitutional amendment, and by con
firming that policy as a fixed fact dur
ing the entire balance of President
Johnson's Administration. For the '
impeachment of the President the
Northern Jacobins could not get thir
ty votes in the house of Representa
tives; while the original secessionists
of the South and their CoppeAread al-
lies of the North would find it difficult
to persuade such a cunning political fix
Its President Johnson to put his bead
into any trap they could bait for him.
There may be some little risk that
the Ben Butler Jacobins on one side, f
and the Notiroos and Forrests and
llawsons on the other, may incite un
thinking people here and there to vio
late the law and create riots, as they
did at New Orleans and in Memphis ;
but such outbreaks can only mid in
unnecessary bloodshed and the slaugh
ter of a few infatuated victims, and
they aro easily subdued. Something
of this kind may spring from the advice
of the Northern radicals to the Balti
more Police Commissioners to resist
a plain law and rebel against the con
stitutional authority of the Governor
of the Stale of Maryland. If so,it will
be speedily checked and the guilty
parties brought to punishment. But so
far es any serious trouble to thecountry '
may appear to be threatened by the I
violence of the radicals un either side,
the public mind muy rest at ease, and
feel satisfied that it is all balderdash,
and that the nation was never more se..
cure against any rebellion than it is at
the present moment.
The political revolution must, how
ever, take place shortly that will mark
the lines of parties fur the next quer
ter of a century in this country. In
the Southern States there will spring
up two distinct factions, the ono oppo
sing the constitutional amendment and
the other fitvoriug that settlement of
the question of restoration. The for-
Mee will embrace all the old fire-eaters
and worn-out political hacks who are
set aside by the Constitutional amend
ment, and who desire still to figure on
the public stage and feed at the public
crib. The !atter will comprise the new
generation—the young men of the
South who went into the war through
reckless gallantry, and the quiet, re
spectable citizens who desire to see
peace and prosperity restored to their
States: Ti.ese parties will contend fur
political mastery at the South among
themselves, and it is easy to predict
which side will win. In the Northern
States the lines will be drawn between
the radical Jacobins audi the Republi
cans. The former, probably at the
next session, or certainly in the next
Congress, led by Butler, Phillips and
Stevens.will proclaim their programme
of abolishing the Constitution, placing
the executive as well as legislative
power in the hands of Congress, and
seizing upon the Governments of all
. the Southern States, and holding them
as subdued provinces. The Republi
cans will draw off in a distinct conser
vative party against the Jacobite Rad-

kids, and the late Democrats, totally
demolished and wiped out as an-or
ganization in the elections of this year,
will select their places in one or other
of these new divisions. Eventually
the Southern Constitutional amend
ment party will combine with the Re
publican party, and form the great na
tional organization that will elect the
next President, and rule the nation for
the next quarter of a century.
The breaking up and reformation of
political organizations will be more
complete and distinct than anything
of the kind that has occurred in this
country since the formation of the old
Republican and Federal parties. It
will be greater and more sweeping
than that, as the nation is more pow
erful and the issues more vital than
they were in those early days of the
Republic. This is the revolution that
is in store for us. It will be a peaceful
ono; but who can estimate the impor
tance of its results ?
From thu New York Times.)
Indications of Danger.
From ono great source of peril con
sequent upon the suppression of the
rebellion the country has escaped with
an ease that reflects honor upon the
American people. The disbandment
of the armies and the return of hun
dreds of thousands of soldiers to the
pursuits of peaceful life, produced
none of the difficulties which the most
hopeful considered probable. - Beyond
this, danger was not apprehended
With the rebellion ended and the arm
ed men on both sides dispersed, no
thars were felt as to the constitutional
process of restoring the Union.
Events have not harmonized with
these anticipations. Where trouble
was feared, none occurred. Where
smooth-sailing was looked forward to,
the most serious embarrassments have
been presented. The gallant fellows
who bore the flag of the Union to vic
tory did not, after all, complete the re
storation of national unity. Their
suppression of the rebellion was but, a
preliminary to a renewal of the conflict
In another shape. Where the soldiers
left off tile politicians began. And to
day, after eighteen months of nominal
peace, we are without the guarantees
of the real, enduring quiet which the
war was supposed to have secured.
If the delay and the uncertainty
cident to it concerned only the politi
eians, the people generally might safe
ly keep on their way and exercise no
thought about it. Or if the delay
merely affected industrial and commer
cial interests, disturbing ledger-balan
ces or impeding local development, it
might be submitted to as a loss which
future activity would soon overcome.
Unfortunately, however, evils of ano
ther character aro experienced. The
non-restoration of the Union jeopardi
zes all business, aid infuses into all
cnterprizes more or less of the nature
of gambling, - Worse still. It furnish
es an opportunity for agitation which
partisan adventurers are turning to
areount. It affords a pretext fur sub
jecting the work of restoratioir to dis
cussions and influences which would
be powerless were restoration comple
ted. It enables bad, unprincipled Men
to excite the passions of the fanatical
and the ill informed, and to organize
resistance to the only form of restora
tion which was thought of auring the
war.
The effect is visible, everywhere.—
The restoration which eighteen months
ago would have been accepted as a
mutter of course, is at this moment re
sisted by Northern Radicals as an out
rage that would justify another rebel
lion. Southern extremists are similar
ly disaffected, though :Or different rea
sons. The Radicals of the North de
❑ounce the proposed conditions of rot
storation as too lenient; the Southern
ers complain of them as too harsh and
exacting. Discontent is cultivated on
both sides. One threatens hanging,
confiscation, destruction ; the other
passive, bat dogged resistance. The
two influences combined produce a
peril to which the great majority of
the people appear strangely indiffer
ent.
The indications of danger multiply
with a rapidity which would seem to
render prolonged
.indiffcrence
We. The orator or journalist who
should say that volcanic influences un
derlie the surface of .the country, and
way at any moment burst forth with
fury hardly interior to that of the
rebellion, would probably be accused
of straining after effect. His meta
phor would ho objected to as extrava
gant and sensational. And yet it
would not transcend the strict limits
of truth. It would be the announce
ment of a danger the evidence of which
exists on al! sides.
What are the events now transpir
ing at Baltimore but the mutterings of
a storm which will probably culminate
in riot and bloodshed ? The Mayor
and Police Commissioners and the po
lice, all bound in duty to respect and
uphold the law, are bmded together
to defy it, to resist its application, and
to constitute their partisan Conveni
ence and profit the standard of order
and loyalty to the State of Maryland.
The Governor is vested with lawful
authority to hear complaints against
the Commissioners, and if necessary to
punish them by removal. Complaints
are brought in due form before him
and these he cannot neglect. But the
Commissioners refuse to recognize his
authority, declare that they wilt up'
pear only before a tribunal of their
ow n choo s i ng , and prepare by force of
arms to maintain themselves in office.
if wronged, the same law which makes
the governor their judge when the le
gislature is not in session, provides
them means of redress;'the law will
sustain them in their offices if they are
entitled to hold them; and thus justice
might be secured without prejudice to

the peace of the community. Why
the difficulty then ? Simply to pro
mote the ends of the Radical faction.
To do this, Baltimore has for days
been placed on the verge of a bloody
riot. There has been no waiting for
the operation of the law ; no token of
reliance upon its power. As though
conscious that the law is against them,
the Commissioners, carry!)g out the
Radical will, have from the first avow
ed a determination to rely exclusively
upon brute force. A mob has been or
ganized, disciplined and armed to
maintain the Commissioners as against
the law. And since the authority of
the Governor must be vindicated, it
need be by force, no special faculty is
required to comprehend the peril which
threatens the pence of a populous city.
Ono indiscreet net on either side may
in an instant revive on the soil of Ma
ryland the horrors of New Orleans.
If such a catastrophe be averted, our
thanks will not be duo to the Radicals
of Baltimore or their friends in neigh
boring cities. Not only in Baltimore,
but in Washington and Philadelphia
has there been a persistent effort to
encourage the Commissioners in their
defiant attitude, and to prepare the
country, for the beginning of another
civil war. Appeals have been made
to ”Boys in Blue" to hold themselves
ready to march into Baltimore to aid
in resisting the authority of the law.
In short, certain Radical loaders, hav
ing taken unto themselves a right to
overrule the law, have busied them•
selves in doing all that is possible to
evoke the mob spirit. If a now revo
lution be not inaugurated by riot at
Blatimore, it will not be because prom
inent Radicals have not been willing
to promote it.
Pass fbom Maryland to Louisiana,
and we have another version of the
same story. In Illaryland a Conserv
ative. Governor is called upon to try
and perchance remove Radical Com
missioners. In Louisiana a Radical
Governor talks of removing pro-rebel
Sheriffs, and there, as in Maryland,
preparations have been made to resist
1111(1 defy the law. The Sheriffs are
charged with neglecting or refusing to
porthrin the duties when pro-rebel de
fendants aro involved ; and an aemed
organization has been formed to co
operate with them. They proclaim a
purpose to fight rather than submit to
removal; and lawless "Boys in Gray"
throughout the State are appealed to
for succor. Gov. Wells must recede or
the Sheriffs-must succumb, - or a con
flict is inevitable. '
In both cases the animating spirit is
the same. It is the spirit of lawless
violence, working upon partizanship
and passion, and creating excitements
from which there seems but scanty
chances of a peaceful escape.
The picture might be extended al
most indefinitely. Its details differ
according to the locality. But in
more instances than we . care 'now to
enumerate, the_ volcanic elements to
which we have adverted aro at work.
They are pregnant with danger, and
the country ought not to be unmindful
of their existence and their power.

The Baltimore Troubles.
The Charges Against the• Police Commis

The Governor's Reply.
The Committee of twenty-five citi
izens of Baltimore, appointed by the
City Conservative Convention (espe
cially called for the purpose) to prefer
charges before the Governor against
the Police Commissioners for official
misconduct at the late municipal elec
tion, yesterday visited Annapolis for .
that purpose.
All the members of the committee,
excepting Mr. Win. Crichton and Mr.
A. D. Evans, who were unavoidably
detained, left Baltimore at seven
o'clock, and arrived at Annapolis at
an early hour. The committee had in
their possession a memorial of citizens
of Baltimore, which was stated to be
one hundred and twenty feet in length
and to contain eight" thousand names
in double columns, all of which were
obtained in two days. The memorial
alleges that the Commissioners of Po-'
lice have been guilty of "official mis
conduct" in the appointment, on pont.:
teal grounds, ofj edges of election, their
clerks, and special policemen, at the
recent municipal election, in violation
of the police law; that said judges of
election, at the recent municipal elec
tion, refused to receive the votes of le-,
gaily qualified voters, or to place their
ballots in a box for rejected ballots, as
required by the police law, and that
said Commissioners - connived at said
violation of law ; that said Commission

of election in using unofficial ar.d inac

voters of 1865, by whiell many thou

that said Commissioners sustained the
judges of election in ordering the ar
rest of citizens on election day for in
sisting upon having their vote placed
in one or other of the boxes required
by law to be used ; that said Commis
sion CEB gave orders to the police justices
not to release any person so arrested,
or to give them a hearing, or to take
bail until the close of the polls on elec
tion day, and until it was too late for
tlwnt to deposit their votes; that cer

the ballot boxes and count the ballots
as required by law, with the
sanction of said Commissioners; that
said Commissioners have made romp
' vats from that body of the police

and appointments therein, exclusively
with reference to the political opinions
of the persons removed and appointed,
in violation of the law; that said Police

said judges, but propose to keep them
in office, and to confide to theM the
important election for State and Fed
eral officers which is to take place in
November nest; that said Commis
sioners have also been guilty of other
gross"ofticial misconduct," &c., for the
commission of which the law makes it
the duty of the Governor, in the recess
of the Legislature, to remove said Po
lice Commissioners and to appoint
others in their places.
To sustain these charges the com
mittee visiting Annapolis had in their
possession a large package of affidavits,
which had been procured for the pur
pose.
On arriving at Annapolis, the com,
mitten proceeded immediately to the
Executive Chamber. George W. Her
ring, who had been selected to present
the memorials and affidavits of the
committee, then addressed his Excel
lency Gov. Swann as follows:
ADDRESS TO THE OOVERNOR
Gov. Swann : A majority of the peo
ple of Baltimore, feeling aggrieved at
the result of the late election in that
city, convened primary meetings and
selected delegates to a convention,
which elected .one gentleman from
each ward to form a committee to lay
before you this memorial and evidence
of the manner in which that election
was c:3nducted. The chairman of that
committee appointed a committee .of
five for that purpose, of which I have
the honer to be ono. You must be
aware that the effect of that election
-was that only about one-eighth of the
citizens of Baltimore were allowed to
participate in the election. lam not ,
a lawyer, but you understand that
these elections are carried on by means
of Police Commissioners, who appoint
judges of elections, clerks, Sze. The
law specifically states the mode in
which these officials are to bo appoint
ed, and we have given you evidence in
these documents before you that in
many canes the law was not conform
ed to; in fact, open violations of the
law in that respect were winked at by
these Police Commissioners. Besides,
sir, we who were not registered in
'6:5, and who, consequently, were not
afowed to vote, in accordance with
Attorney General .Randall's opinion,
asked that our voice should be record
ed in some shape for future reference
and purposes, but a rejected ballot-box
was not, to be found in the precincts.
The inalienable right of the ballot-box,
which belongs to ()Very free white
man, was taken away by these Com
thissiouers, and the law, sir, I believe ;
gives you the prerogative, in-case suf
ficient evidence is shown of 'their mal
feasance, to remove them; and we,
remsenting seven-eighths of the popu
lation of Baltimore, ask you in your
wisdom, relying upon your known pa
triotism and decision of character, and
also your well known disposition to do
what is right and just to the entire
community, to relieve us from this
incubus. If this thing is allowed to
go on, we have no rights. A large
proportion of the taxpayers of Balti
more have no rights, and in. behalf of
these sevenseigliths of the entire popu
lation of Baltimore we appear before
you to-day. There was a time when,
perhaps, this system of things could be
tolerated, when the land was deluged
with fratricidal blood, when civil war
spread its devastatint , flames over the
country; but now, when "grim-visaged
war has smoothed his wrinkled front,"
it is time ',hat these high martial meas
ures should cease. • But for the mere
purpose of subserving the selfish inter
ests of party—not for the good of the
community, not for the good of this
State—it is endeavored to perpetuate
this system of exclusion, in utter disre
gard of the rights of the majority of
our citizens. We represent here differ
ent parties—Union men, men who
were known as Union men during the
war, and also another class styled by
our foes "Southern sympathizers." I
belonged to the latter class, but on
that account We are not to he ostracis
ed nor deprived of. the legitimate ex
ercise of our just and inalienable rights
as freemen of a now united country.
Frederick the Great, wo are told, in a
memorable instance made a nobleman
of a peasant who had defended his
homestead against one of the King's
own soldiers; but the Radical element
will not make noblemen of us, but
would persecute us to the extremest
issue, even to that of perpetual dis
franchisement.
We place this matter in your hands,
and solicit you to take immediate ac
tion upon it, as there seems to be a
determination on the of the Rad
ical element that the elections shall be
all in their favor. How they mean to
do it I cannot say; but We know from
experience that there is scarcely any
means,-however questionable, to which
they will not descend or resort to at,
taiu their ends. They are your eno.
mies, and the enemies of the best In
terests of the community. I do not
know what policy they intend to main
tain. They vote for measures in Con,
gress and on the stump in Maryland
they say they will not apply. In con•
elusion, we ask you to take urgent and
prompt, measures on behalf of those we
represent, mid we rely on your noble
ness and impartiality of character to
do us justice in the examination. Our
memorial is signed by over ten thou
sand names, collected in less than two
days. •

the following : "A few Sabbaths ago'
while a minister was conducting the
public worship in one of the West
all:inland churches, the service was
interupted by the entrance of a goose.
The psalm had just beengiven out,and
the congregation were beginning to
sing, when the circumstance attracted
the attention of the preceptor, who so
far forgot himself that he lost the
tune. During the silence which eons°,
fluently intervened the minister whis,
pored to one of I he (Alice bearers to put
out the goose. The (Ace bearer being
ignorant of the presence of atone frye
animal of the species, thought it was
the preceptor that was referred to,and
laid hold of him with the intention of
executing his instructions, which ho
would have done, our correspondent
adds, had the preceptor net made ,
powerful resistance."
