The President's Policy.
The best test of the soundness of
President Johnson's new policy tor
conciliating rebels i- to take the opin- j
i'ms of those Union men who were
nearest to rebel sentiment, and then '
the opinions oi' rebels themselves.
The Baltimore American, a paper :
which became particularly inimical to i
the Maryland rebel cutthroats on ac
count of its extended influence and j
strong Union proclivities, thus speaks ■
of Johnson's speech :
The sentiments expressed on the oeca j
riou biought exultation to their (rebel I
sympathizers) lie arts equal to that occasion- !
ed by the tidings of the first rebel victory
at Bull Hun, and will be hailed by their
confederates at ilie South with as much
jubilation as they would have felt during
the war, if Lee had routed <Jrant, or
Sherman had been driveu into the ocean
with ail the gallant and loyal hosts that
followed him from Atlanta Though
those who now rejoice did not succeed in ;
electing Mefdellan, they have secured a j
wore unexpected victory, hut one that will ;
very likely yield bitter fruits as it will ce- I
ir.cnt and concentrate the Union sentiment
of the country, and give to the South, in j
the end, harder terms than they might
otherwise have obtained from the present
or succeeding Oonuress.
4\ hile the loyal men ot the coantrv will
lament over the defection of a President
whom they trusted, and whose utterances j
had heretofore given hope that he would •
prove equal to the trust reposed in him,
the tone, and temper, and language em
ployed by Liui on this occasion will cause I
a deep shock of humiliation and sorrow
We have no heart to further allude to the
subject at this time. We are in the midst :
ot a political revolution that will at once i
cause the concentration of opinion and the i
formation ol parties, and keep the country
in a turmoil ul excitement during the next
three years.
In corroboration of the American's
view, we copy the following from an
article in the Norfolk, \ a., Post, a re
constructed rebel sheet, all of which is
of t he same tenor:
Since the morning of July 22, I*6l,
when the news of the great Southern vie
tory, achieved by Beauregard over Mc-
Dowell; and the awful rout of the Federal
ntiuy on the plains of Manassas, was borne
through the Soutn, on the wings of the
wind, as it were, carrying joy and jubila
tion into every loyal Southern household,
and gladdening every true Southern heart!
there has beeu no news received with so
•much rejoicing by the people of the South
as that contaiued in the despatch informing
them the President -had vetoed the Freed
men's Bureau bill. .This is the greatest
victory they have achieved during the war
—greater than any of the feats ol arms of
Stonewall Jackson cr of Robert E. Lee
and it has given them more pleasure than
had General Lee been elected Governor of
Virginia. They have found an ally in
the President worth more to them than the
alliance of France or England, and they
now begin to see, even as they s*w fore
shadowed at Manassas, the FIX VL TP I
UMPH OF THE GREAT SOUTHERN
CAUSE.
The democracy showed their love
for President Johnson at Harrisburg
on the 4th by nominating Iliester Cly
mer oi Berks county for Governor.
No man in the State abused Andrew
Johnson more than Clymer did when
the copperheads refused to let Andy
apeak in the Senate Chamber lie is
sJso oi that stripe which could justify
or palliate anything among rebels, but
could see nothing constitutional in
Lincoln, h's generals, or his soldiers
who were fighting battles ior the
PoioD.
Proceedings of Congress
In the Seuate on Friday evening,
the following joint resolution, which
had previously been adopted by the
House, came up on its final passage:
"Resolved by the House of Peprcsenta
tices, the Senate concurring, That in order
to close agitation upon a question which
seems likeiy to disturb the action ot the
Government, as well as to quiet the uticcr
taiaty which exists in the minds of the
people of the eleven States which have
been declared in insurrection, no Senator
or Representative shaii be admitted into
either branch of Congress from any of said
States till Congress shali have declared
such States entitled to representation."
This resolution against which so
much ire is expressed by the copper
heads, and with which the President
found fault as an assumption by Con
gress. was ably vindicated by Mr. Fes
senden before its passage by showing
that the very Senators who now de
nounce it, last winter voted for a pre
cisely similar proposition "declaring
the States in rebellion disqualified from
representation in Congress, until au
thorized to do so by proclamation issued
hj the President hi pursuance of an act of
Congress . ? I his already forgotten re
cord 101 l like a bombshell among the
truculent tools ol power, and covered
them with shame.
President Johnson, although already
called on three times to furnish docu
ments relating to the organization ol
State governments south, has thus far
paid no attention to the matter. These
documents are deemed essential to a
proper understanding whether those
States have, as the constitution directs,
"republican constitutions."
In the House, on Monday, Mr. Bing- j
ham presented a report from the Joint
Committee of Reconstruction, closing
with a resolution to admit the mem
bers from Tennessee. The report gives
much testimony in relation to that
State.-generally concurring that East
Tennessee is loyal, but tbat the other
portions are rebellious, and the milita 1
ry officers all concur in the opinion
that it would be unsafe to withdraw
the troops. j
