to control the action of this numerous class, and to use them for the attainment of his owniolitical ende. . I cannot but add "another very grave objection to the bill. The Constitution imperatively declares,_ in connection with taxation, that each State shall bar:, at least one representatives and fixes-the rule for the number tho' which. in future times etch State shall be entitled; it also pro vides that the Senate of the U. States, shall be composed of two Senators from each State, nod adds with peculiar fore!, that no State, witheuk . , its, „,consent i . lie depiiVed of its equal suffrage in the Senate. T4e original act, was necessarily passed in the absence Of the States chiefly to lie affected, because their people were then contumaciously engaged in the er bellion. Now - the case is changed, and some, at least, of the States are attending Con gress by loyal representation soliciting the allowance of the constitutional right of representation. At the time, however, of the consideration and the passing of this bill, there was no Senator or Repre sentative in Congress from the eleven States which are to be mainly affected by its provisions. The. very fact that reports were and are made against the good dis position of the country is an additional reason why they need and should have representation in Congress, to explain their condition, reply to accusations, and assisted by their local knowledge in per fecting measures immediately affecting themselves, while the liberty of delibera tion would then be free snd Congress would have full power to decide according to its judgment, there could be no objec tion urged that the States most interested had not - been permitted to behe.ard. The principle is firmly fixed in the minds of the American people that there should be no taxation without representation. Great burdens have , now to be borne by all the country, and we may best demand that they shall be borne without murmur , when they are voted by a majority of the representatives of all the peokle. I would not interfere with the unquestionable right of Congress to judge and act for itself of the elections, returns and qualifications of its own members, but that authority can not be construed as including the right to shut out, in time of peace, any State from the representation to which it is entitled by the Constitution at present. All the people of eleven , States are ex cluded; those who were most faithltil dry ring the war not less than others. The State of . Tennessee, for instance, whose authorities engaged in rebellion, was re stored to- all her constitutional relations to the Union by the patriotism and ener gy of her injured and betrayed people. Before the war was brought to a termi 'laden they had placed themselves in re lation with the General Government; had established a State Government of their own, and as they were not included in the emancipation proclamation, they, by their own a et_hafj, mnded_ 7* tio - na - to abonsu slavery Wlllllll the limits of theirown State. I know no reason why the State of Ten nessee, for example, should not fully en j.,y all her constitutional relations to the United States. The President or the United Statei stands towards the coun try in a somewhat different attitude from that of any member of Congress chosen from a single district or State. The Pres ident is chosen by the people of all the States. Eleven States are not at this time represented in either branch of Con gress, and it would seem to be his duty, on all proper occasions, to present their just claims to Congress. • There always will be differences of opin ion in the community, and individuals may be guilty of transgressions of thelaw; but these do not constitute valid objec tions against the right, of a State to rep resentaion, and would in no wise inter fere with thd discretion of Congress with regard to the qualifications of members, but I hold it my duty to recommend to you in the interests of peace, and in the interest of the Union, the admission of ev ery State to its share in public legislation when, however insubordinate, .insurgent or rebellions its people may have been, it loesents itself not only in an attitude of yalty and harmony, but in the persons of representatives whose loyalty 'cannot be questiened under any existing consti tutional of legal tests. , It is plain that an indefinite or perma nent exclusion of any part of the country from representation must be attended by a spirit of disquiet .and complaint. It to unwise and dangerous to pursue a course. of measures which will unite a very large section of the country againstanotbersee tion of the country, however,mtich the latter may preponderate: The course of emigration,the ',development of industry and busineswand natural • causes will raise up.at..the -South .men ao•devoted to tilt) Union as those of any other part of the land. ,But if they are alt excluded- from Congress,• if in a ! permanent statute they are declared not to be in full constitution al :relations to the country, theyinay think they have cause to becomoa unit in feel ing and sentiment aeainstthe government.

ANDUHW JOHNSON. Washington, D. C., Feb. 19, 1866. (Wrest ptmotrat. A. J, GMRITSON, - - - - Editor. TUESDAY, FEB. 27, 1866. The Veto Message, No. 1. We take pleasure in presenting the ve to message to our readers, entire, in this paper,, hoping all will read it carefully. As stated by the President., the main objec tions to the bill are: ft, gives too much power to the Executive ; it is too expen sive and burdensome . h is unnecessary-; ik was ; assed in the absence of represen. tation of the .States chiefly to be affected by it ; and, finally, it' is unconstitutional. AS the negro bureau organs, will not dare print thelnessage, but congeal its wholesome truths from their readers, we suggest that our friends will lend this pa .per to their Republican neighbors, that they may be enabled to see some of the mums of their party. Of course this is only veto message No. 1; Nos. 2,3, etc., will follow as fast as the:fanatics darb force the issues upon their " beloed President." The Cabinet and the Veto. A special despatch to the shoddy In quirer says: "It is now definitely ascertained that Messrs. Harlan, Stanton and Speed oppos ed the President's veto message; while Messr3. McCtilltich, Welles and Sewsird gin "Wang, and Mr. Dennison gave in his adhesion to the measure but a few days since. No resig nations of members of- the Cabinet have been sent in yet, nor is there any immedi ate probability of any." Of course not ; Stanton gt Co. don't belong to the class of men who leave where they are not wanted, until they are told to go. But their time'will come. Rejoicings of the People. The President's veto of the Negro Boarding-house Bureau bill has aroused the most' unbounded enthusiasm for its author in every city, town and village in the North from which we have had any intelligence. The salutes fired, the shouts, the speeches, the ringing of bells, the de monstrations of joy of every kind which have taken place, testify unmistakably how deeply the people feel upon the sub ject of maintaining the old Constitution and the original form of our Republic against the innovations, the encroach meats, and graspings after power, of those revolutionary spirits who have unfortun ately succeeded 'to a• monopoly of one branch of the government. On the other hand, the mortification visible on the faces, and the mutterings heard from the lips of the, partisans of. the Stevens-Sumner school are unmistakable of smothered wrath, which, sooner or later, will burst forth with volcanic force, but impotent for evil. , God speed the. President in the good work commenced.

The radicals had hoped that Mr. John son, Lincoln-like, could be ootti`ed or scold ed:into all their measures, right or wrong —therefore the burean-makers were as much astonished and enraged' when the President smashed their piece of furni ture, as the UNioN men were gratified.— The nett day, after Trumbull had made a tierce speech condemning the veto, the question being celled for, the chair an flounced. that...it-was: "Shall the bilLpasf l / 2 - the President's objections notwithstand ing?" Upon which the yeas and nays were required by the Constitution. The vote wait as' follows; :. Yeas—Messrs.

Foot and Wright. (Republicans voting nay, in italics.) And so falls the negro boarding house; a two-thirds vote in both branches being required to overcome the veto. Not content with their defeat, the rad- icals at once offered, in the" Senate, an . amendment to the Constitution to prevent Andrew Johnson (or any other man) from being re-elected President ; and this for the purpose, we presume, of testifying their undying hatred of the man who re fuses tii - jogstitute himself, his oath of of- See, and' the Constitution, at, their bid ding. In , the House; Thad Stevens,' to show his anger at the President for having, in the message, made complaint that the South was wrongly excluded from Con gress, offered a resolution that no South ern man should be admitted until Con gress shall see fit to so o declare ; which was passed under the gag-rale. The friends of the President and the Union of fered an amendment favoring the admisr sion of members from the President's own State, upon taking the oath ; but this was rejected by the majority who are the enemies alike of the President, the white race,`and the Union. The Dead Duck Party. The Dead Duck—as•the President calla Forney cto.,—managers of the negro par ty hold a state convention next week to nominate a whipped candidate for Gover nor, and unless as cowardly as fanatica l l, will show their hands on the issues of the day. "Lame Ducks," are common in po litical puddles, but "Dead Ducks" are a new variety, which of late have been fed by Andy Johnson, who can't endure 'em any longer. The title is not only appli cable to the flat-footed and flat-nosed features of the darkey-party, but is signifi cant of the fact that the party leaders, having committed suicide, remain to be buried, and at the funeral Johnson will be sexton, not mourner. Andrew Jackson—Andrew Johnson. When Andrew Johnson became Presi dent, the Montrose Republican, which then supported him, predicted that he would be a second Andrew Jackson. If that paper, which now opposes him, will DARE to print his recent utterances, its readers can see how far the prediction is being realized. But we fear that paper will continue to deprive its readers of a knowledge of the President's opinions. D. D.—Forney having classed Presid't Johnson with Jeff Davis, he rewards J. W. with the title of D, D. iMournment of the Legislature. The Legislature of Pennsylvania has adjourned over from the 16th to the 27th instant, eleven days. Meanwhile their pay goes on at. the rate of about twenty dollars a day. This adjournment costs the State at least forty thousand dollars, and the time covers about one-fourth of the working days of the session. It. is simply a great outrage 0)2 the tax-payers of the State.— What is the reason of it? If the Legisla ture has no work to do, letit adjourn and the members go hoine. - We suspect the cause. The Republi- Can majority want to spin out the session unjil the new batch of constitutional amendments can come before them and, be sailed.

The Republican Senators who voted to sustain the vetch-, and many Democrats and other Union men were upon the plat form., Speeches were made by.prominent Democrats, such as S. S. Cos, Senator Hendricks! and A.. J. Regers and- by XPD.t.g.comM. Blair,..lOte -of _ Dir. Lincoln's onbinet, and others. Resolutions were adopted endorsing the rPresident, and when the meeting adjourned, a committee called upon the President to present the resolutions, and the crowd followed to serenade him. In response, the President made a lengthy speech, of which we can only copy. some paragraphs to-day ; but they are enough show that the rupture is complete—that the President accepts the issue made by the enemy, and means to fight it oat. The President, as he appeared, was re ceived with enthusiastic and long contin ued applause. When it had subsided, he spoke as follows: TUE PRESIDICIT'S SPEECH. Fellow citizens, for I presume I have a right to address you as such, I come to , tender to you my sincere thanks for the approbation expressed by your Committee in their personal addressand in the resolutions submitted by them as having been adopted by the meeting which has been held in this city to-day. These resoltitionS, us I . understand them, are complimentary to the policy which has been adopted by the' Administration, and -has been `steadily pursued since it came into power.iamfree to say to you it is extremely gratifying to me to know that on this occasion so large a portion of my,fellow citizens approve and indorse the policy which has been adopted and which it is myintention shall be carried out.' (Great applause.) That policy is one which is intended to restore all the States to their original relations to the Federal Government of the United States. (Renewed applause.) * * * * SLAVERY. There was, in a portion of the Union, a peculiar institution, of which some com plained, and to which others were attach- Cached. One portion of our countrymen in the South advocated that institution, while another portion in the North op posed it. EXTREME PAY:TIES. The result was the forniation of extreme parties, one especially in the South,which reached a point at which it was proposed to alssulVl3 i,he Union of the States tor the purpose, as was said, of securing and pre serving that peeuliar institution of the South. I say these things because I desire to talk plainly and in familiar phraseology, I assume nothing here to-day beyond the position of a citizen ; one who has been pleading for his country and the preserva lion of the Constitution. (Immense cheer ing.) These two parties, I say, were ar rayed against e ich other,ancl I stand here before you for the Union to-day, as I stood in the Senate of the .United States in 1860 and 1861. IN THE SENATE I met there those who were making war upon the Constitution, those who wanted to disrupt the Govertnnent, and I denounced them in my place then and there, and exposed their true character. I said that those who were engaged in the work of breaking up the Government were traitors. I have never ceased, on all proper occasions, to repeat that senti ment, and as far as my effort could go, I have endeavored to carry it out. (Great applause.) I have just remarked that there were two parties, one of which was for destroying the Government and sepa rating the Union, in order to preserve slavery, and,the other for breaking up the Government in order to destroy slavery. True, the objects which they sought to accomplish were different, so far as slave ry was concerned, but they agreed in the desire to break up the Government, the precise thing to which I have always been opposed, and whether distmionists come from the South or from the North, I stand now as I stood then, vindicating the Union of these States and the Consti tution of my country. (Tremendous ap plause.) • • PRESENT STATE OF AFFAIRS The rebellion has been put down by the strong arm of the Government in the field, but is that the only way in which you can have rebellion P Our strug gle was against an attempt to dissever the Union, but almost before the smoke of the battle-field has passed away, before our brave men have all returned to their homed and renewed the ties of affection and love to their wives and their child ren, we find - almost another rebellion in augurate& , We pit down the foim'er belliim in order to prnvent,the separation' of-the States; to'prevent them from flying off, and thereby changmgAhe' character of our government and weakening its posier,' but , when' that struggle; on our part has been and' that attempt , hail' been put 'down,. we find now ''an effort' to ioncentrate all power:hi the hands of a few - atrthe'-FeOral head; and-Ithereby bring . abont'anonsolidatied of the Gov ernmenti , which is - equally'objectionablo; with a separatinti.

(Voices, " Name them I" "Who are they ?") The President—You ask me who they are. I say Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylvania, is one • I say Mr. Sumner, of the Senate, is another; and Wendell Phillips is anoth er. (Long continued applause.) (Voices, %,Otive it, to Forney I") The President— In reply to that, I will simply say I do not waste my ammunition npon dead ducks. (Great laughter and applause.) I stand for my country; I stand fur the Constitu tion. There I have always placed my feet from my advent to public life. They may traduce, they may slander, they may vi tupetate me, but let me say to you, all this has no influence upon me. (Great applause.) Let me say further, that I do not in tend to be overawed by real or pretend ed friends, nor do I mean to be bullied by enemies. (Tremendous applause.) • • • • Men may talk about beheading and about usurpation, but when 1 am behead ed I want the American people to be the witnesses. Ido not want it, by inuendoes and indirect remarks in high places, to be suggested to men who have assassination brooding in their bosom, there is a fit subject.. Others have exclaimed that, the Presidential obstacle must, be gotten out of the way. What is that but a make use of a strong word inciting to assassination? No doubt, I say, the intention was to in cite assassination, so the obstacle which the people had placed here could be got out of the way. Are the opponents of this Government not )et satisfied; are thosewho want to .destroy our institutions and to change the character of the Gov ernment, not satisfied with the quantity of blood that has been abed. Are they not satisfied with one martyr in this place? Does not the blood of Lincoln appease their vengeance and their thirsts ill un slaked ? Do they still want more blood ? have they not honor and courage enough to seek to obtain the end otherwise than through and by the hand of an assassin. lam not afraid of an assassin attacking me where one brave and eourageons man will attack another. I only dread him when in disguise and where his footstep is noiseless. * * * * THE ..N:ORTIIRIIN TRAITORS HE Di NOT TO BE BULLIED BEHEADING If they want blood let them have the courage to strike like men. I know they are willing to wound but afraid to strike. If my blood is to be shed because I vindi cate the Union, and insist on the preser vation of this Government in its original purity, let it be shed; but let an altar to the Union be first erected, and then, if necessary, take me and lay me upon it, and the blood that now wartus and ani mates my existence shall lie poured out as the last libation, as a tribute to the Union of these States. (Great applause.) But let the opponents of this Government re member, when it is poured, that theblood of the martyrs is the seed of the church. This Union will grow, and it will continue to increase in strength and power, though it may be cemented and cleansed in blood. I hal,:e already spoken to you longer than I intended when I came out. - (Go on.) • • THE UNION-TRUE LOYALTY-THE SOUTH SHOULD DE ALLOWED REPRESEN. TATIVES. I repeat I am for the Union, I am for preserving all the States. lam for ad mitting into the Councils of the nation all the representatives who aro unmistak ably and unquestionably loyal. A man who acknowledges allegiance to the Govern ment, and who swears to support the Consti tution, must necessarily be loyal.

A., One of the principal contributors to the Diettonarier of Oreek and Roman Antiquities, Biography, arid Geog raphy. Since Sir Walter Raleigh solaced his im prisonment in the Tower by the composition of his " History of the World," the Literature of Ragland has never achieved the work which be left unfinished. There have bees " tlniverval Histories." Prim the bulk of an encyclope dia to the most meagre outline, in which the annals of each nation are separately recorded,' but without an at tempt to trace the story ofDivine Providence and ha• man progress.

The ilter• mare of Germany abounds in history—such as those of Muller, Schlosser, Karl Von Rotteck, Duneker, and oth ers,—which at once prove the demand forsuch a book, and furnish models, in come degree, for its execution. Bat even those great works are somewhat deficient in that organic malty which is the chief aim of this " tory or the World."
