SUFFRAGE IN TENNESSEE
The action of Tennessee in all matters relat
ing to reconstruction Is of unusual interest, not
only because she occupies a leading position just
now among the Southern States, but because
she may be supposed to indicate in some degree
the policy of President Johnson, whose influ
ence has been potential there for the last four
years, and probably is so still, if be chooses to
exert it. It is well known that the Legislature
has denied the right of suffrage, for the present,
to men of color. The Senate, by a large major
ity, has now passsed another suffrage bill of a
novol character. It confines the right of voting
to those white men, otherwise qualified, who
are " publically known to have entertained un
conditional Union sentiments from the breaking
out of the rebellion until the present time."—
Provisions are made for proving the fact„of loy
alty beyond question. All other, persons are ex
cluded for air years after the passage of the act,
and may then be readmitted to franchise by pe
tition to the Circuit or Chancery Court, on proof
Hof loyalty to the United States, in open court,
upon testimony of two or more good loyal chi
ens
if the loyal citizens of North Carolina, for in
,tance, will take such action as this, and inflexi
bly apply it at the polls, the people. would be
better reconciled to the withholding of suffrage
from the negro, because there would then be a
better chance of ending that class legislation
which was the offspring of slavery and is still
our greatest danger. But there is "a more ex
cellent way" yet, and that is both to disfranchise
the disloyal men so long as he remains sit, and
enfranchise the loyal men without any regard
to color. That is safe, that is right, that is the
Principle of our institutions, that is the point to
which, in the order of a wonderful Providence,
we have been brought, and we ought not to
evade it.
THE CANADA CONSPIRACY
The testimony which was first taken in the
aaescsination case has now been pnblished. It
is astounding I It establishes the complicity of
Davis and his Canada agents in the murder of
Mr. Lincoln, and entirely justifies the proclama
tion offering a reward for the apprehension of
the chief conspirators. The plot of these wretch
es was much more extensive, however, than the
murder of the heads of the Government. It in
cluded burning the city of New York, cutting
the Croton dam, and poisoning the Croton wa
ter. These man who, in their ferocious effort to
overthrow the Government, were slaying thou
sands of loyal men in battle, were meaning also
to massacre the wives and children of these men
at home. They claimed to be "gentlemen," to
be " chivalrous," to be " honorable." Gentle•
men a smcins I Chivalric poisoners ! Honora
ble incendiaries 1 It was not enough to starve
and freeze their hapless Union capthres'until
they died, or went mad, or sunk into idiocy.—
They must heap infamy upon infamy. They
must teach crime deeper devilishness and bar
barity, a more fiendish ferocity.
All these things were done in the interest of
slavery. To maintain slavery they rose in =ln
against the Government. To save Slavery they
starved our brave boys in prison. To revenge
slavery they murdered Hr. Lincoln, and intend
ed to poison the people of New York. It was
slavery that made them Ent rebels and then as
sassinq For slavery imbrutem the master more
than the slave, and its most repulsive product is
the cruelty thinly veneered with courtesy, and
called the "high-toned Southern gentility."
We hope the readers of these startling disclos
ures will not forget that Jacob Thomson, Jeffer
son Davis, George N. Sanders, Beverly Tucker,
Clement C. Clay, and the rest, who staid secure
ly in Canada, and hired other and braver men to
execute their villanies, have always professed to
he " democrats " and friends of the people !
Friends of what people? Of the hard-working
people who live by their daily labor? Oh no!
Tliosa-they meant to poison if they could, and
infect with yellow fever. The people who buy
and sell other people were those of whom they
were friends, and to whom they themselves be
longed.
Is there a man so blind that he does not see
that the system which was the object of all the
interest and efforts of those leaders was destruc
tive of the rights of every poor man in the land?
Injustice to any great mass of laboring men any
where in a country, is Injustice to all the labor
ing men In IL There is no plainer principle in
human experience; and yet the party to which
these men belonged were constantly -fling the
poor working men at the North that it was for
their interest to have the colored race held as
slaves at the South. They can see now how
much it was for their interest These men took
part in an election, and because t h ey were de
tested rebelled. They gave the country the al
ternative either to be destroyed or to fight The
country chose the honorable course. It defend
ed its life, and these men, by the war into which
they forced the country,haVe laid upon It an ev
rlasting sorrow and en enormous debt. Every
cent of increased taxation this country owes to
the ciders of the rebellion, to the men whose
chivalry chooses hunger, cold, poison, infected
rags, and the murderer's &lot as weapons of
their "honorable" warfare. And until their
spirit—the same old spirit which controlled
sba `when they were conspicuous In politics—
is cast out ) the peace of this nation Will be Im
perilled.
THE CHAPTER OS IMPAIRS
The country is to be flooded with Histories of
the Great Rebellion.. The least said aliout it,
perhaps, the better. It is enough to know the
leading facts. We give below a brief epitome Of
what It bap done :
It shot down Federal soldiers in %him Ore, on
their way to defend the National Capital.
It fired on the Flag of our country at Fort
Sumter.
It seized the public Forts and Arsenals and
robbed the national mints and depositories.
It organised an armed force hostile to the
United States.
It shot down the soldiers of the Republic on
a hundred battle fields.
It discarded both human and divine Justice
It perverted the spirit of our free institutions.
It attempted to rivet the chains of our bond
age tighter on the hands of the African.
It forced men into arms against their own
government
It murdered loyal people, drove the defence
less from their homes, outraged their families,
stole their treasures, burnt their dwellings, rav
aged their fields.
It organized lawless bands for indiscriminate
murder and pillage.
It threw trains loaded with innocent women
and children from the track and robbed them of
their valuables.
It spread desolation and woo throughout the
land.
It filled our homes with widows and orphans.
It fastened an immense war debt on the nation.
It captured and burnt our merchant vessels on
the high seas.
It starved and murdered our prisoners of war.
It burnt Chambersburg.
It violated the most solemn oaths.
It shot down our soldiers in cold blood, after
they had surrendered at Fort Pillow•
It organized bloody riots in the Northern
cities.
It tried to fire the city of Nov York,
It made a raid on a defenceless town on the
Northern border and robbed its banks.
It tried to introduce the Yellow fever Into our
Northern cities.
It violated all obligations, and disregarded al
laws.
Finally It ended its infamous career by assns
sinating the Chief Magistrate of the nation.
In short in has been guilty of Perjury, Tres
son, Alllon, Robbery, Murder, Assassination.

engines, and thousands of spectators, men, wo
men and children, were collected in the main
street of the town to witness the sport. Seen
after the commencement of the proceedings an
attack was made on one of the machines, and

Monroe. hi that classic locality he may breathe

ence of a lankee, as he threatened to do in one
of his editorials published a few months
It is true that he will have Yawhee guards who
may contaminate the otiaosphere, but the odor
of Davis will permeate the prison and be a cor
reetiVe to Union breezes. We suppose that the
prisoners will not be allowed to communicate
with each other, but it will be a satisfaction to
Mitchel to be near his great superior. What will
be done with this man we cannot venture to
predict. Ile is an impudent ingrate, and there
will be but little pity wasted on his account.
—Soon after the news of President Lincoln's
assassination reached Montreal,a prayer-meeting
was held at which twenty ministers were pres

sand. The objects chiefly sought in prayer, says
the Witness, " Were Divine support for the
American nation in Its calamitous bereavement,
especially for the widow and children of the
murdered President, and Secretary Seward and
his family; wisdom and guidance for the pres
ent President and his counsellors; the entire
ovorthrow of slavery; forgiveness for those who
had brought on the civil War ; and lasting peace
and friendship between the British empire and
the United States." It was described "as the
most solemn meeting, perhaps, ever convened
in Montreal, remarkable fur its magnitude, its
influential charactcj-, and its chrlstian sympa
thy." "It is to be wished," says the paper al
ready quoted, "that all the American editors
and public speakers who have represented Can
ada as inimical to the Statm could have been
present at the union prayer meeting " We have
never supposed that the good men in Cnnada,as
a body, were hostile to this country; and if the
counsels of the Montreal If - lbws had been heed
ed, and its spirit imitated, we should never have
had cause to complain of robbers and murder

Renovation of the Republic
The mild peaceful measure*, which have been re
sorted to by the leading government officials, re
specting the complete restoration of the disloyal
States, cannot but command the estimation and sa
gacity of the most astute. Nothing detrimental to
the equitable rights of political franchise can be dis
covered by the most wayward and disaffected ; but
the contrary can plainly he discovered by all—the
manner of proceeding deserves the commendation
01 the whole civilized world—the frank humanity
exhibited by the present administration is the theme
of all patriotic men.
Making the above observations, which no sane
man ran deny—we conic to the natural conclusion
that the benetila to be reaped, in end, can not be
enumerated—tl.at the established regulations of the
civil code—the wise and heaven-bornprieciple of
Emancipation set forth by the martyred Chief Mug
htrate of our renowned Republic, will, ultimately
give rise to fro. tabor, free education, and free united
liberty. The vast machine, constructed by the
" powers that be," has aireadyeommenced opera
ting with wonderful velocity. The sword—the ter
rible din of war has ceased to shock the foundation
of the monumental pillars of hastice—no more the
boom of cannon reverberates Its dreadful tone upon
the air—no more treason smiles the sons of liberty,
blighting the fair face of creation's sweetest ones
with a pall of horror and amazement too dreadful to
behold. But with "shame anti everlasting confu
sion" depleted on their quivering lips they humbly
entreat us to receive theta once more in the halls of
freedom. We say to all, who are tau , abiding men—
" Come unto me and I will give you mat"—the arm
of justice is sure, and extends leniency to men who
deserve a worse fate than " pardon." The policy
of the ambitions despots of an " intended " slave
empire has been overthrown, and crashed to rise no
more concaideage, miscegenation and tyrunnhai
institutions engendered by "property in man" have
been scattered to the four winds of heaven—the
foul crime of slavery has received a blow from
which it will never recover in the United States.
With what truth can the American citizen now ex•
Balm—" We are free"—how exeellent the " divine
right" of suffrage! When loyal men receive the as
surance that the ballot-box will be the panacea for
injustice and cruelty—that the once poor, debased
slave can go to the polls and give a voice towards
strenthening the ship of State. Equality, the watch
word of freedom—will ever be our motto when
uniting in concert the bonds of the great, indisso
luble laterally of a social and political organization
which has wrought the Emancipation of tour mil
lions of down-trodden children of tyranny, ever alive
to the Instincts of freedom. We can now perceive
the inestimable benefits to be derived by pursuing
the direct path of rectitude.
With peace at home and fame abroad we ask no
crowned head to interfere with our commercial and
manufacturing power which we have established by
dint of industry and perseverance. The United
States deserves theplaudits of all philanthropists—
all who have the least inclination respecting the
genuine principles of liberty and social equality
will endeavor to accelerate the momentum u ith
which the freedmen are approaching the rights and
and immunities of citizenshin. The vast cathedral
of liberty has been expunged of the devil-dyed
stain of treason and oppression. Peace, quietude
and serenity reigns where once the sharp sound of
the lash could be heard as the monster piled it with
a demoniacal fury to the back of his slave—let us
view It as one of the corruptions of a feat age—as
an effete matter cast off from the organ of a political
institution which will never be revived. As the
august power of Napoleon crushed to atoms the
baneful and feudalistic corruptions ot the Bourbons,
In like manner, the heroic Republicans have
wrought a thorough and rejuvcrating reformation
ri ci armi. Our thanks are due the soldiers who as
sisted in liberating the bonds of tyrants and pro
duced the course ofpolitical Reorganization we are
now preparing to enjoy. They have our thanks—
we will let the memory of them remain green in our
souls "eves unto the consummation of the world."
JOHN, THE MARINE,
The Latest from Mexico.
New ORLEANS, June 19, 186.5.
The latest information from Mexico says that the
Empire is waning fast. The Emperor Maximilliau
is a mere pupp"t in the hands of Marshal Bazaine.
The Empress displaysmore firmness and decision of
character than her husband, and exerts great con
trol over film. She is the real ruler or Mexico. The
foreign and 'Mexican troops are bordering on disor
ganization. The French are the only reliable troops,
and they look to Bazaine for orders. The Mexican
troops will rebel on the first opportunity.

Letter From the West.
Guano RAPaid., Wander, June 151,11 180.
Friend Frazier r-f Some years ago, as you and some
of your readers may remember, fliers cams to your
eoinums from here and there In the Great West the
"Travelling Notes of an Untravelled Traveller."
The labor of penning those letters woe fully compen
sated by the assurance from yourself and many
friends that they were marl , as Interesting as the
more pretending sketches and jottings of some more
distinguished travellers.
Your untravelled chap Is abroad, as of yore,
Through the West, or n rail, ii) Is tiding once more,
And his pen is inclined to run on, as before.
But Ido not prUlloße, es lien, to to-till yuu ii mates

writing traveller, or a travelling letter-writer. Nei
ther have I the time to devote to observation or de

alone a solitary, night seeing baehelur. Now 1 ion

purpose to serve in sending you this uric letter,
which will become apparent as I proceed.
Before leaving Montrone, I sent to New York and
purchased throu,zh ticket)) to lea Crosse, on the M in

to Buffalo, thence to Ni.gara ‘'ie Great Wv`tern

N. Y., I procured one of the handbills put forth by
the agents of these combined companies) in which I
read In prominent ehamelerc, "Nu delay at any

Now I wish the travelling Nadic to understand that
that paragraph Is a lie. intended to deceive and mis

Mr. Conway's report
I lately heard a conversation between two literary
gentlemen concerning American affairs. One of
:hem is the tluest historian living, and his opinion
struck me as cf great importance, and I glee the
substance of it as nearly as I can The flout herteda
he thought did not risk such losses and dangers as
.the war would necessarily involve without having in
their eyes the vision of some great advantage, prob
ably it was that of a brilliant tool wealthier etrartoe.
racy, and a corresponding grand Southern empire.
These national visions and enthusiasms ladon g a
great deal to Externs( circumstanc.s. Those South
erners and those Northerners are one rave. and the
Confederates show What certain Interests and 01-
matic muses produce upon our rare.
Now, the dilliculty of the North will be that tlese
who go South to Maid np and peoples the Southern
States are hub? folio-sat, So•ahrrerra TM-y[oFri may
begin some innocent s j stem of negro contracts
which will allow them to enjoy their juleps and Ha
vana without working in the hot sun, or drawing too
largely from juleps and Havanas to pay Lanett to easy
temiwtred negroes. It is hard to get rid of the Hes
sian fly, once lodged in a country. The stern vii.ec
of Nesv England got sionsiderably modulated when
Banks met the plasters. There is a kind of Dap,
ism which developes magnificent dreams of empire
and pstriarthal srateMB of a stay little deviation
from the right line.
The gentlemen with whom he woe conversing said,
"That Is the North's danger, truly. Bat there In a
way to provide against it ; let the North give every
negro a vete ands musket, and their minds may be
easy against any backward developments."
"That," said the historian, "Is the only plan.—
Are they up to It ?"
Death of Mrs. Seward
The death at Washington, on Wednesday, of Mts.
Frames Seward, wife of Hon. William If. Sewai d,
will be widely and sincerely mourned as more t hen
a family bereavement. Mrs. Seward, born Frances
Miller, daughter of Judge Eltjah Miller, one of the
honored pioneers of central Nsw Yo^k, had attained
the age of sixty years, and had tilled for thirty years
an exalted position uithoui once exciting an enmity
of alienating a friend, and without ever meeting one
who had either the DOW . 1' or the wish to speak ill of
her. Intellectually gifted and cultivated Inc beyond
the average not merely of her sex but of her time,
silo gave much heed ant thought to public affairs
without neglecting or alighting any of the duties of
a beloved, exemplary wife and mottoa-; and every
pulsation of her Maul beat strongly for Justice, liu
manity, old Freedom to All. Au it:iand and sulfur
er for several years past, she had ueeessluily with
drawn In great measure from society, solaced by the
admiring love of a devoted family and walking cued--
fully heavenward in ti.e light of an unehadowed
Christian faith. She has remained for the moat part
at home during the hut four years, but hastened to
Washington on the Drat tidings of the murderous
assault on her husband and son, and the overtaxing
of her impaired physical strength by that trying
Joarney probably shortened her earthly career. All
her children (three eons and a daughter) survive her.
Her mortal remains will doubtless rest lis the ceme
tery of Auburn, the city of her birth, which, though
not always Ler re,idenee, was always her tome.

Return of Loyalty--Starvation In the Track
of Sherman'• Army~Arrivol of Gen. Paine
and hi. Colored Troops. •
NEWESII2I, N. C., Juno 16, 1815.
The succtuisful plans of Gen. Grant have given
vent to the smoldering flames of loyalty in this
fitat , , which are now swooping over North Carolina
with Irresistible fury, consuming the last vestige of
treason and hatred to the Government.
Intelligence front Northern Georgia, and on the
line 01 ShOrthall'tl lute march through Booth Caro
lina states that many people are dying for want of
food, and It is feared that starvation will prevail,
owing to the general destruction of houses, furni
ture, lood, cattle, horses, fences and farming imple
plemunts, which leaves the Inhabitants helpless to
provide for themselves.
Gen. C. J. Pains with a division of colored troops
arrived here recently to relieve Gen. Palmer, Whose
troops are to be mustered out of service.

Our Duty in Reorganization.
" l'euen," said Edmund Burke, "may be made
en unadvisedly as war. Nothing Is no rash as fear,
and the counsels of pusillanimity very rarely put
otf, while they ar• always sure to aggravate, the
evils Isom which they would ily." What this coun
try needs to secure peace is the
. firm application of
a plain principle. The principle of State rights,
iii.e that of ciimity rights and town rights, is a good
one But the principle of national rights Is the
panitneunt and essential principle of the present
situation. All subordinate rights whatever must
bend to the national necessity of a local govern
moot ,very State based upon the consent of the
W hole body Lit loyal freemen.
The a... i o ud authority is fully competent to se
cure that government. There is no reason what•
ever why the nation should delegate its authority
to ..ecute such State Government in the Sodth to a
part of the loyal freemen resident there. At this
moment no one of the loyal freemen of North Caro
lina has any fight to a voice In reorganizing the
Sate I.ieh every other does not equally possess.

why the national Government should author.

head, S S. Cox, said In Chicago at the time of the
fh mo, ratio National Convention, to which be was
a delegate. We are Indebted for the same to the
reporter of the Chicago 'lime.:
Senator Cox being introduced, mid be did not
want to use any harsh language towards Old Abe,
pries of "giye it to him."l He attempted in his
owtr , jiy, a f, ,r weeks since, to show, in a very quiet
way, that Abraham Lincoln had deluged the country
with flood, created a debt of four thousand millions
of dollars, sacrificed two millions of human lives,
and filled the land with grief and mourning. For
less offenses than Mr. Lincoln had been guilty of,
till English people had chopped off the bead of the
fist Charles. In his opinion, Lincoln and Davis
nueht to be brought to the same block together.
The other day they arreated a friend of his, a mem
ber of Congress from Missouri, for saying in private
conversation, that Lincoln was no better than Da
vis. lie wa.s ready to say the same here now in
Chicago.
Copperhead Reed, of Indiana, said at the name
convention:
"That he advised, open and aboveboard, reels•
tance to the draft. It Lincoln and hie satraps at
temptcAl to enforce it blood would flow in our
dtreets; and it would be right It should flow. Lin
coln was damned to ail eternity, and he did not
know If even this Iniquitous measure would mate ,
dally street the e.,timation in which the people held
him. Be advised his hearers to shoot down those
who enforce the draft; to insist upon the writ of
habeas corpus: to resist to the bitter end the attempt
to make the military power superior to the civil,
and to openly arm themselves, that they might be
pr«pared for horrible contingendea"
Copperhead Benjamin Allen, of New York, at the
same conv.mtion said:
The people will soon rise, and if they cannot pot
Lincoln out of power by the ballot they will by the
bullet. [Loud cheers.]
Copperhead John Fuller, of Michigan, said:
Are yea willing to follow in the footsteps of
Abraham Lincoln, the perjured wretch who has
vichtted the oath he took before high Heaven to
!airport the Constitution and preserve the liberties
of the the people. [Cheers.]
Copperhead Baker, of Michigan, Bald:
Let ua hurl that usurper (Abraham Lincoln) from
power. Never till that day conies when the usurper
and victims meet at the judgment seat, can he be
puul*lied for his wrongs, for his conspiracy against
,Anierlean liberty.
Copperpend H. Clay Dean bald :
lie said in the presence of the force of Camp
Douglas and all the satraps of Lincoln, that the
American people were ruled by felons. Lincoln had
'never turned a' dishonest man out of office, or kept
an honest one In. [A voice—" What have you to
ray of Jeff. Davis?" J I have nothing to ray about
him. Lincoln is- engaged in a controversy with
him, and I never Interfere between black dogs.
And 'till not monster usurper wanted more men for
hie slanghter pen. [Load cries of "He sha't have
Inore."J The careful husbandman in deadening
the forest, was always careful in preserving the
young growth of timber; and in selecting his swine
fur the blaughter he preserved the younger Once
for future use. 'Sot the tyrant and despot who
ruled this people to destruction, paid no regard to
age or condition. He desired to double the widow.
hood and duplicate the orphans. He blushed that
such a felon-should occupy the highest place In the
gift of the people. Perjury and larceny were written
over him as often as "one dollar" on the one dol
lar hills of the Bank of the State of Indiana.
[Cries of "The old villain."l * • • Ever duce
the usurper, traitor and tyrant had occupied the
Presidential chair, the Republican party had emitted
war to the katie end the knife to the hilt. Blood
had flown in torrents acd yet the thirst of the old
monster was not quenched. ills cry was for more
blood.
Jeff. Davis's Defence
There bane been many surmises as to jhe defence
that Jeff. Davis wonid make when tried for Treason
to the United States. Some have thought he would
pretend to have been insane, but they were miatak
en. The DemocratienewsTapers are giving the peo
ple light on the subject. The Binghamton Democrat ,
emitted a letter this week, and other organs of the
Democratic party are opening the eyes of the people
by degrees. It appears that the real defence that
Jeff. will make is that the Rebellion was organized
by the leaders of the Democratic party in the Free
States, as well as at the South, and that he has only
acted In accordance with their wishes and upon their
advice.
Charles O'Conner of New York City, is to be Jeff's
counsel, and It Is said he will Introduce In evidence,
letters written to bin client In Mal, by leaders of the
Democratic party from all parts of the country, ad
vising Jeff: to rebel against the Government II Lin
coln should be elected ?resident, and promising him
assistance In the business!
The only break that Democratic liditors have at
tempted to make respecting the light in which they
will stand in view of this defence, Is by falsely pre
tending that finch Union men as Dickinson, Butler,
and Dix were In the. treasonable plot before they
left the Democratic party. But that will not do.—
All the leading Democrats, who advised Davis and
other traitors to get up the Rebellion, have remain
ed true to him, and are yet leaders of the Democrat
ic party. Those who left that party and supported
Lincoln, were not traitors and never counselled or
aided the Rebellion at any time.
The advice Jeff. received to rebel against the Gov
eminent, come from Buchanan, Pierce, Vallandig
ham, the Fitymours and other copper - need Demo
crats who embarrassed Lincoln's administration
from the beginning to the end of It.
But., what a defence! Who wo - dd have supposed
that the advice of the leaders of the Democratic par
ty to commit treason to the Government, would ev
er have been allowed as a defence for a traitor who
followed such advice r Yet It seems to be so. What
a fall the Democratic party has bad ! and what n
treasonable stench arises from Its dead carcass! Its
career should he a warning to the rising generation.
