Reconstruction of States.—Amos
Kendall on the President's Plan.
Certainly the movement now going
on, under directions from the President,
for the reconstruction of Seceded States,
with a view of bringing them again into
the Abolition Union, is the most inter
esting as it unquestionably is the most
dangerous movement of the day. 'nod
doctrine once established—we warn the
people in time—there will be nothing of
civil liberty Left worth preserving. It
upturns the ery foundations of republi
can form of government, changes it:
whole character, vests the President
with despotic power, substitutes his will
for constitutions and Jaws, converts the
States into a consolidated government,
dependent subjects.
The question is very serious--one that
should be deeply pondered by the peo.
ple—and in order to attract their atten
tion particularly to it, and poMt out to
them the extent of evil which it involves,

order of the President, that General, in
stead of employing himself and the
troops under hi,, command in clearing
the balance of the State of armed rebels,
their legitimate duty, is busying himself
in getting up new civil institutions. He
has issued a proclamation of which the
following extract contains the essential
parts, vis:
HEADIi'RR DEPT OF THE GULF,
NEW ORLEANS, January. 11, 1864.
To the people of Louisiana:
1. In pur,-uance of authority vested in
me by the President of the United States,
and upon consultation with many repre
sentative men of different interests, being
fully assured that more than a tenth oft he
population desire the earliest possible res
toration of Louisiana to the Union, I in
rite the loyal citizens of the State quail
! fled to vote in public affairs. as hereinaf
ter prescribed, to assemble in the election
precincts designated by law, or at such
places as may hereafter be established
on the 22d day of Febuary, 1864, to cast
their votes for the election of State offi
cers herein named, viz: 1. Governo; 2.
Lieutenant Governor; 3. Secretary of
State; 4 Treasurer; 5 Attorney General;
6. Superintendent of Public Instruction;
7. Auditor of Public Accounts; who shall
when elected, for the time being, and un
til others are appointed by competent au
thority, constitute the civil government
of the State, under the Constitution and
laws of Louisiana, except so much of the
said Constitution and laws as to recog
nize, regulate or relate to slavery, which
being inconsistent with the present con
dition of public affairs and plainly inap
plicable to any class of persons now ex
isting within its limits, must be suspend
ed, and they are hereby declared to be
inoperative and void. This proceeding
is not intended to ignore the right of
property existing prior to the rebellion.
nor to preclude the claim for compensa
tion of loyal citizens for losses sustained
by enlistments, or other authorized acts
of the government.
11. The oath of allegiance prescribed
by the President's proclamation, with the
condition affixed to the elective franchide
by the Constitution of Louisiana, will
constitute the qualification of voters in
this election. Officers elected by them
will be duly installed in their officers on
the 4th day of March, 1864.
111. The registration of voters, effected
under the direction of the Military Gov
ernor and the several Union Associations,
not inconsistent with the proclamation
or other orders of the President, are con
firmed and approved.
IV. In order that the organic law of the
State may be made to conform to the will
of the people, and harmonize with the
spirit of the age, as well as to maintain
and preserve the ancient landmarks of
civil and religious liberty, an election of
delegates to a Convention for the revis

of course be in favor of his re-election.

The Particulars of the Illness of 1
Stephens.—The Richmond Enquirer of i
January 19 has the following:
"We are pained to announce that Mr.
Hidell, secretary to Vice-President Steph- I
ens, yesterday received a telegram from
Augusta, announcing the sudden and
serious illness of Mr. Stephens at his home
at Crawford vine, Ga. He was attacked
on Monday morning, and sent on that
day to Agusta for a physician. This at
tack, with the known state (11 . his health
during the winter, has created serious
apprehensions in the minds of his friends.
"He was prevented from coming to
Richmond at the beginning of the session
of Congress by the serious Illness of his
brother, the Hon. Linton Stephens, at
Milledgeville; then by his own feeble
health and the great severity of the weath
er. When again ready to start for
Richmond his brother was a second time
severly attacked, which delayed his corn
ing over a week. He was a third time
ready to leave,
and would no doubt,
have started to this city yesterday morn
ing but for this untimely attaek. Should
he recover, as WO trust lie will, it is alto

Is It a Dye
...
In the year 1855 Mr. Mathews first preparr.l
the VENETIAN lIAIR DYE; since that time
it has been used by thousands, and In no Instance
has it failed to give entire satisfaction.
The VENETIAN DYE is the cheapest in the
world. Its price is only Fifty cents, and each
bottle contains double the quantity of dye in
those usually sold for fl.
The VENETIAN DYE is warranted not to in
jure the hair or scalp in the slightest degree.
The VENETIAN DYE works with rapidity
and certainty, the hair requiring no preparation
whatever.
The VENETIAN DI E produces any shade
that may he desired—one that will not fade,crock
or wash out—one that is as permanent as the hail
itself. For sale by all druggists. Price 60 cents.
