j --wimble nnd resolution :
Whkreas, An net to provide for
t'.u more etliciont government of the
tifll Status, passed .March 2, 07,
nnd an act supplementary thereto
j -sed on tho 2"id or the same month,
wides for calling a convention to
t-pure a constitution forllio govern
i t nt of Alabama ami (or holding an
t 'ition in the State for the ratified-'
t m or rejection of said constitution
! ' tlioso persons who were authorized
i--ijer Baiii nets to register and vote
aid elections; and
Wfiereasi'An election Wafl'lioldTor
that purpose in said State, commend-
ii'i: on the 4th day of February last
finj continued until tho 8th of that
reotith, which resulted in the rejection
of aaid constitution by a majority of
15.000 of tho registered voters undor
uid acts, and who wore oxpretwly nil
tliorized, under and hy the provisions
or said veto, to reject said constitution,
either by depositing their votes
ii:ainst It, or not voting at said elec
tion ; and
Whereat, This large majority of
registered voters were utterly opponed
to the ratification of said constitution
First, because it deprives a largo
number of the White males of said
f':.to of the right to vole or hold of-
Lm. Second, because it confers the
right to vote and hold oflice on all the
biack males, thus disfranchising intel
ligence and capacity and enfranchising
Ji-aorance and incapacity. Jhird, JSe-
t iuso it requires all persons before vo
ting to subscribe an oath that they
necept the civil nnd political equality
of all men, and agree not to attempt
to deprive any person or persons, on
account of race color, or previous con
dilion, of any political or civil right,
pnvilego or immunity enjoyed by uny
other class of men. Fmirth, Uocauso
in apportioning representation to tho
people of tlio scverul counties ot the
State it ignores three counties and
leaves them without representation.
Fifth, Because it gives totwenty-four
of the filly -nine counties in the State,
which are recognized as having a pop
ulation of 2.'i2,407, and n black popu
lation of 328,310, sixty -five of the one
hundred Heprescntatives which com
pose tho House of Heprescntatives ;
and it gives to tho remaining tliirty
five counties having a whito popula
tion of 2't,22, and a black population
of 111.157 but ono Representative- to
each ; because it apportions represen
tation in the same way as near as may
be. Sixth, Becauso by these means
it plaocs the bower to impose tuxes
and all other legislative power in the
Lands of those who will bo no tax
payers when it goes into operation,
and deprives a majority of those who
will have to puy the tuxes of tlio right
to vote or tho power to protect them
c 'Ives against the oppression with
w hich they will bo inevitably visited.
S'Vi'nth, Became it makes no provis
ion for and does not mako it tho duly
of the Legislature to appropriate the
money raised by law for common
si bools, equally and separately for
the benefit of the white and black
children In the States. Eighth, Be
cause after declaring in tlio first sec
tion of tho third articlo tho powcr.of
the Government of tho Stale of Ala
bama shall be divided into three dis
tinct departments, namely tho legisla
tive, ex ecu tivo, and judicial, it provides
in tho tilth section of the eleventh

Whereat, Thoe registercj voters
who opposed tho adoption ol said Con
stitution h ive no desire to avoid a
, thorongh and Bcarchitig tnveMigation
ot all matter connected with stiitl
matters connected with

Whr.rtas, There is good reason to
believe First, That tho frcedmen in
large numbers in all or most of the
counties of the State refused to vote
for tho adoption of tho constitution
when they saw the great body of the
old whito citizens, with whom thoy
were well acquainted, among whom
they had ulways lived, and with whom
they exjioct to continue to live, and
who were permanently interostod in
the State were opposed to it. Srr
onJ, That their purpose not to vote
was strengthened by tho fact that
those white men who were most ac
tive in favor of its adoption were new
comers, of whom they knew little or
nothing, and who had no visible in
terest in tho. State or tho freedmen.
except to get office. Third, That in
many instances those new-comers und
those nvho aided them, used threats of
violence to tho freedmen if they did
not come nnd voto, and promised
them laud and mules and in this
way induced or scared many into go
ing to the polls who would not other
wise have gone. Fourth, That many
froodmeu voted who wore notof legal
age, and also voted for others who
were unwilling to come to the polls,
or were unable to. Fifth, That many
freedmen voted moro tliiin ono ticket,
nnd in smno instances where they
were detected they excused themselves
because of ignorunco, und gave tho
names of whito men, who wcro candi
dates for office, as tho persons who
had givon them tlio roll of paper ai.d
told them to put it into tho box, that
it was all right. Sixth, That many
freudmcu voted in counties where
they did not live, as well as in the
counties whero they did live; this
was tho case in Mobile, Dallas, Mont
gomery, liaibour, llati, Macon, Lees,
Green and Afarengo counties, nnd to
some extent, but not os great in sev
eral others. S' Vaith, By theso means
many illegal voters were obtained in
favor of adopting said constitution,
and through tho activo agency, in a
great degroe, of thoso whoso only in
terest in tho question consists in the
fact that if it is adopted, they expect
to get nn office' of aome soil, which
will enable them to live op tho sub
stance of peoplo to whom they are
strangtrs, alike, unxnowuig and un
knowo ;
Iherrfore be it Itesohed, That the
bill and pending amendments be re
committed to the Reconstruction Com
mit too, und that they bo directed to
send for persons and papers, or if
they deem it advisable, to visit the
Stato of Alabama for the purpose of
ascertaining tho truth of theso and

One John C. Underwood, n 'New
Yorker of Mow Rngland descent,
wont, a few years since, us nn adven
turer und seTiool teacher to Virginia,
whore,' marrying n lady who Owned
some land, bo settled down ns n Vir
giuian ciiir.cn. . But being a school
teacher and Ynnkeo besides, of courso
ho knew a great donljnore thun his
neighbors and undertook to touch
them how much better it would he to
abolish their control and guidance
over their"iiegroc, and to go down,
or Btrivo to get down, to a common
level with (larlteydom. Hut they not
only refused to listen to his anti-social
ami absurd teachings, but gave tho
beast, notice that ho must ubundon his
inccnitiiii y notions or leave the Slate,
and tho frightened creature inu Oil',
and of course turned up as u martyr
among the Abolition lunatics ut, the
North. Finally, Abo Lincoln, tho
great embodiment of Mongrclism, was
ulcctod President, and bo uppoiuted
Underwood District Judge lor the
Slate of Virginia, though how he
euine by his law, unless, like I)og-
beny's roading and writing, it .came
by uuturo, we have never heard. Tho
'State" of Virginia, nfler flourishing
a while nt Wheeling, sot itself up at
Alexandria, elected a Governor and
legislature, with a bran new Consti
tution, which carried out Underwood's
notions ucd abolished the whito su
premacy over the negroes, and better
still, elected Underwood one of the
Senators of 'Reformed" . Virginia
But liodid not resign his Judgeship
on tho contrary, appointing his son
Marshal of his own Court, and bui.ing
cerium estates oi "rebels,; lie connn-
cated them of course, and with his
eon's help bought them, and, it is said
now owns, or claims to own, some of
tho best landed property in Virginia,
Meanwhile, it became necessary that
tho Abolition-Mongrel party should
take "advanced" grouud and deny
inrvi mere wus any Mate ol Virginia,
at all events, not until a convention
was held und Mongrelism embodied
in a new Constitution. Again Under
wood appears, and of course presides
over tho niggers, while and black,
now assembled in the Capital of Vir
ginia, and all this timo not only re
ceives his pay ns a U. S. Judge, but
franks bis Idlers as a U. S. Senator,
nnd of course draws his pay as the
President of the Mongrel Convention.
But one thing more seems needed to
round otr the fullness and perfection
of tho national und beastial lunacy of
ino uny, niui I ins man, l ndcrwood,
strangely but fitly meets this want
ho also presides over tho trial of Jef
ferson Davis for treason 1
Such are the fortunes of an Aboli
tionist a man who represents Mon
golism, tho degradation of the great
master raeo to a legal level with tho
lowest, tho scini animnlizcd, woolly
headed, long heeled negro, and cmbo'd
ies a sin against God and a crime
against humanity so hideous nnd ac
cursed, that imturo herself revolts, and
tho polluted beasts perish in theirown
rottenness, as tho census returns show
