The V: to—lts Assumptions
S nguiar Speech cf the Piesi
dsnt.
He said last week that to the nieie
t ;ct of Freedinen's Bureau
Bill there was no objection, bat to the
arguments appended thereto reflect
ing tipon Congress l'or not sidinitting
the rebel Slates into I'tiH communion
with the guvei nment, in fact denying
the right ol Congress to act as judges,
taw will as sent. Senator Trumbull, a
man honored for his nobleness, ir bis
• ;"tewe ot the bill, dearly showed that
the President was wrong in his con
struction of some of its clauses, and |
th it so far a- its provisions were to be
applicable, the President himself was
judge, and therefore could not only
restrict the number of officers but also
govern the expenditures
The passage by the Hru.se of the
jxint resolution declaring that the priii
tvple adopted ie>tliou'. obj-ctiun a vear
ago in reft renco to Louisiana should
be applied t< the other rebel States. |
was a eonscquonee of the President's
declaration in hi- veto message, and
well would it have been had he sufl'er
el this difference of opinion, for such
• 1
it was, to rest here, lint copperhead
ism, aided by a few political weather
cocks like Montgomery Blair, lievcrdy
Johnson, Ac. hoped they at last had
t jiind an tillering wedge to create a
f-'id between the Administration and '
('ingress. A meeting was accordingly
called at \V ashington on 1 hursday last,
a '* which some friends of the Presivlent i
made fools ot themselves bv as-o<-ia
ting politically with the scum of Val- ;
1 indigham's bootblaeks. S. S. Cox of
Ohio, a noted copperhead whom the
soldiers came near mobbing, was the
Tmxt speaker, one of Brigham Voting's
subjects the second, then Blair, Hen
dricks, Merrick. IT.gers of Xew Jer
sey came next, and so shamefully and
indecently assailed President Lincoln's
administration that when Hen. Clark
"l Indiana was called out. he refused
to speak from a stand that had been
used to slander Abraham Lincoln!
Rogers was appropriately followed bv
Bo vet and Strouse of this State. This
incongruous mass, composed ofretutn
••l rebels, rebol sympathizers, copper
heads, ami sundry office hunters, passed
resolutions in effect demanding the
admission to Congress of the rebels
elected to those offices. Having duly
prepared themselves, they then moved
to the grounds of the Presidential
mansion, where the President ot the
1 nited States, we are pained to say, 1
delivered an ill-tempered harangue
attacking by name Thaddeus Stevens
and Mr. Sumner, whom he compared
with Davis, Siidell, and Toombs, and
charging them with inciting Ifs assas
sin ition 1 Previous to this, the Com
mittee on Reconstruction, composed of
the ablest men in Congress, and bv in
uondo the large majority of members
who pdopted the reports of this com
mittee, were thus assailed:
"We tinit tiint by an irresponiohlc central directory
near.y ail tlie power* of government aie aseumed
witfioiit even couHdlting the lesi-latireor Executive
departments of the irovernmcnt. Yes, and by .* re*-
<.iut-.on reported by a committee upon wliom all tie
power of the Government ha* been coti
fei red, that great principle it; the Constitution which
author;;'• ati'i e,npo*rers ea.-h branch of the legisla
tive department—the Senate and House of Repreeen
tar;.. s—i., >..■ ibjudges of the election and qualitica
ttou of it- own uiemiers. ha* been virtually' taken
away from-these department- ot government aud
eonterred upon a committee, who must report l>efore
they can a tjindei the Constitution, aud alio* inem
le-rs duly elected to take their seat*."
So far as Messrs. Stevens and Sum
ner are concerned, they will probably
pass by the charge unheeded, for al
tbuuch singular aud radical in their
i views, no two men in Congress more
faithfully stood by the Cnion than they
did throughout the rebellion—a tact
the people have not forgot ten if Andrew
Johnson has.
In answer to that sweeping charge
made against the committee, Mr. fes
seiiden, the true and tried friend of
1 ■ Abraham Lincoln, a man who would do
honor to anv body of legislators in the
, | world, calmly but forcibly repelled the
! allegations made, and showed clear as
J the noonday sun that tin- committee
\ was but in the performance of its plain
\ duties*, and that Congress was judge of'
| the condition cf rebels and rebel terri
| tories.
Such is a faint outline of proceed
ings which are without parallel ill our
history—proceedings which are well
calculated to create distrust in our ru
i lers, and bring about a condition of
things worse even than the rebellion
The men who are now applauding,
flattering, and paying sycophantic ad
illation to President Johnson, are the
same who denounced hi in a- a d runkard
less than a year ago, and before that
heaped every term of obloquy upon
him that the tongues of rebels, rebel
sympathizers, copperheads and otliers j
ot that stamp could conjure up Jrom the ;
vocabulary of vituperation; while those i
who supported the administration in
all its efforts to put down the rebellion
—who defended him from these very
assailants who upheld the credit ol '
the government by purchasing and ;
holding its bonds when these now vvor j
shipping copperheads were denouncing
them as worthless as old rags or paper,
arc told that the representatives of the
people, elected by not less than three
fourth* of the popular vote, on the very
is.-ue at stake, have nothing to sav
whether rebels shall or shall not ! e
admitted to Congress! This, to s: v
the least, sounds very much like "one
man" power, a power which the veto
message strongly condemns
We shall a \vait further development-,
and see whether Andrew Johnson is
willing to return and stand by the de
ciaruiions -o often and -olemnly made j
since the assassination of Lincoln
that treason is a crime and that loyal
men, no matter how k-w in number,
must reconstruct and control the polit
ical machinery of rebel States. If he
does, bygones may be bygones—if lie
• does not, the Union men < t'the North, j
South. Last and \\ est will know with ]
w hat kind of "Moses" they have to
deal in the fu-ure.

Proceedings of Congress
In the House, on Tuesday of last \
week, Mr. Stevens, hoin-the Commit- \
tee on iveconstruction, reported aeon
curreri that, in order to close
agitation on a question which seems
likely to disturb the action of the Cov
crnment, as well as to quiet the uncer
tainty which exists in the minds of the
people of' the eleven States which have
been declared to be in insurrection, no
Senators or Representatives shall be
admitted into Congress from either ot
s.iid States until Congress shall have
deiaarcd such States entitled to such
leprescntation. A minority report
picseuted by M r. Grider in favor of the
admissi n of Tennessee was read, but
objection was made to its reception,
i Great excitement was caused by the
resolution, and numerous dilatory mo
tions were made, which were all voted
dojvn. Finally Mr Stevens' resolu
tion was passed—yeas 109, nays 40.
In the Senate, on Wednesday, the
I lesident s veto of the Freedraon's Bu
reau Bill was sustained, as will be seen
by the following proceedings:
