The Right to Bear Arms, No act of the National government du ring the late civil war was fraught with more important consequences than the enlistment of negro troops. Nearly two hundred thousand of these wore actually in service, and did well for their country, a country which by that act, for the first time in lier history, acknowledged them us her people. Most of them were raised in the South, in the very worst of all the rebellious States, where thair misters were in the field doing their utmost to destroy the republic, and they were lib crated from their fetters togo out like the Greek bondmen in Persian war, and fight the battles of freedom. It was a bold E-tcp fo make soldiers of such men in a region where they had been so long held to belong to an inferior race, and against their own ojlprcssors. But it was a successful one. The stubborn prejudi ces of northern whites gave way, and recognized these black soldiers as breth ren in a good cause, while even southern contempt was overcome, and the nogro raised himself immeasurably in the eyes of the southern whites by fighting against them, and fighting well, too. The real importance of the act, how ever, lay in the recognition thus afforded o! the right of the blacks to bear arms, always disputed previously,notwithstand- in;; I lie guarantees of the national Con- j stitution. Not only were they conceded the right to bear arms, but arms were placed in their hands,, the national uni form on their bodies, the national colors confided to their care, and they were ranked and paid as soldiers of the repub lic. This service performed and the ueed of their aid no longer existing, it now M:enis that the government chooses to ignore both them and their rights. The rwy wen who were deemed fit to be sol diers of the -Union are now disarmed Vy rebel Slate officials nil ovor the South, acting by -he connivance of Andrew Johnson and his reactionary cabal. This i» no guess work. The statements rest nßon military authority,.and prove COB. < In-i'vsly that those w''o fought for the Union when it was in peril are now al lowed to be disarmed by disbanded rebel troops who have seized possession of the i'tato vowerr, .elected each other to office, o are now engaged in endeavoring to crush out all unionism both of blacks and whites. The second articles of the amendment made to the Constitution in 1789 says explicitly that "A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a (Vee State, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." Now what is here meant by i; thc people?"— Webster defines it as "the body of per sons who compose a community, town, city or nation; the vulgar, the mass of illiterate persons; the commonalty as dis tirwt from men of rank; persons in gen eral," and so on. Whichever one of these definitions we take, not a black person in the South, or anywhere else in llio country, can be excluded under it irom the right to bear arms, though the reOcl oligarchs who are now engaged in disarming them could be. Recurring, however to the language ol the Constitution, we find that it cou ples this great right with the necessity for a militia, showing obviously enough that the people to be allowed to keep and bear arms are those of whom a militia can be composed. Of course, we shall Jiprc be answered that the militia is a State institution, logulated by State laws, and as no blacks are included in it by the lews of the Southern States, none of them are desigued by this article of the Constitution. /\V by, then, does the Con stitution deem it necessary to throw this safeguard around it? If the militia be wholly a State institution, why should national Constitution look after it thus ? Moreover, if the militia belong wholly to tiie State, where is the republic to look for soldiers when tho State orders the militia to rebel!' This is exactly what led so many south ern Union mcu to sustain their States in rebellion. They hold the theory that the militia belonged of right to the State, and were hound to obey the orders of tjjp State authorities even against those of tlio national government. When the conscription act was passed, the national authority took complete possession of all thi; anus-bearing population of the coun try. Where, then, was the State author ity over the militia? If that authority hu.d been superior tho conscription act never could have been enforced, and the war must have been arrested for the want of men. To recognize the rebel theory now -as valid would render us liable to this dtfliculy hereafter. Hut if the negro <\B ie not. included in the militia, they are peculiarly the "peo ple" of the nation, and under the words of the Constitution are entitled to bear arms. This is clear from the fact that tliey have so borne arms as soldiers of the republic. We find, then, that while the rebel Statu officials jling to their theorios and demand and enfore the constitutional right of the white people of the South to bear aruu, the national government aban dons entirely Clio protection of those who are acknowledged to be peculiarly its charge, auU who were its be»t frionds at the Sou'li during the War This Andrew Jububou does, wo presume, ou the j>riu eiple that his duty is to protect the »cbels ; and not the freedmen for on no othef theory can we account foi his conduct. But if these freedmen are not 'people* within the view of this article of the Conititution, th,ey cannot be held tQ b*. 'persons' within the view of the article which prescribes ho representatives in Congress shall be apportioned. If they are 'persons' at all, they clearly belong to t>be 'militia,' no matter what any one may say to the contrary. Whenever called upon to defend the State against invasion tlicir refusal would avail them nothing, they would be obliged to serve. It is worthy of notice here that Gen. Lee strenuously urged the rebel government to arm the negroes and the question, of doing so was undecided when the confed eracy fell. Gen Butler proved by rebel records that in Louisiana, the very State where the negroes are now being disarm ed by rebels, they were during the war armed, enlisted and regularly trained a* rebel troops. Thus, however we regard this question we see but one conclusion—that the ne groes of the South have the constitu tional right to keep and bear arms. If they have not, then they cannot consti tutionally be counted all in apportioning represcntvtives to the South. If they have not, then no one south but a rebel has the right to bear arms, and the men whom wc used for our own purposes in the war must be abandoned. In guaran teeing this inestimable popular right, the Constitution intended that men should use the arms to defend their homes and then families against oppression. No class in the country stands more in need of such protect ion than the fried men of the south, anl it is exactly be cause the rebels know this that they de prive them of arms. We hold that in permitting this to be dono Andrew John son has been grossly derelict to his duty, and in this respect, as in so many others, ho has shown that while perpetually pra ting about the Constitution he totally disregards its most invaluable provisions. He has allowed the southern negroes to be disarmed, knowing as he did that if sodisaimcd the scheme to reduce tliein to a state of abject peonage could not be be resisted by them. Whether this was accidental or not on his part may be seen by the fact that at the same tint# he did this he resisted to the uttermost the ex tension of civil rights to the frecdmen, wlieiebj Ihcy could peaceably defend their interests with some chance of success in conrts of law and justice. The disarm-' anient of the blacks is manifestly part of the gonera'*reactionary scheme. X.iTlOX.il. TIIAXKMtIIVIXO. A PROCLAMATION. Almighty Uod, Our Heavenly Father, has been pleased to vouchsafe to us, as a people, another year of that national life which is an indispensable condition of peace, security and progress. That year, moreover, has been crowned with many peculiar blessings. The civil war that was so recently among us has not been anywhere reopened. Foreign interven tion has ceased to excite alarm or appre hension. intrusive pestilence has been benignly mitigated. Domestic tranquil ity has im proved, sentiments of concili ation have largely prevailed, and affections ofloyaltyand patriotism have been widely renewed. Our fields have yielded quite abundantly. Our mining industy has been richly rewarded, and we have been allowed to extend oar railroad system far into tho interior recesses of the country, while our commerce has resumed its cus tomary activity in foreign seas. These great national blessings demand a national acjiiyiwledgement. Now, therefore. I, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, do hereby recommend that Thursday, the 2iUh of November next, bo sot apart and observed everywhere in the several States and Ter ritories of the United States by the people thereof, as a day of thanksgiving and praise to Almighty God, with dne remem brance that in His temple doth every man speak Ilis Honor. I recommend also, that on the solemn oecasion. we do humbly and devoutly implore Him to grant to our National councils, and to our whole people thnt divine wisdom which alone can lead any nation into the way of all good. In offering these national thanksgivings, praises, and supplications we have tho divine assurance that "The Lord rcmainetha King forever. Them that arc weak shall He guide in judgment, and such as are gentle shall He learn His way. The Lord shall give strength to His people, and tho Lord shall give to His people the blessings of peaoe." In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affiixed. Done at the city of Washington this eighth day of October in the year of onr Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-six, and of the independence of the United States the ninety-first.

CLARK WILSON, Union Herald. ROBINSON L ANDERSON, American Citizen. July 13 1864. REASONS WHY THE AMERICAN WATCH Made at WALTHAM Mass. lH tlio IICHt. It is made on the best principle. Its frame is compos ed of SOLID PLATBS. NO jar can interfere with the harmony of its working and no ftudden shock can dam age its machinery. Every piece is made and finished by machinery (itself fiunous for itsi.ovelty, as well as for ito effectiveness) and is therefore properly made.— The watch ii what all mechanism should be—ACCU RATE, SIMPLE, BTRONO, AND ECONOMICAL.— Except sonie high grades, too costly for general use, foreign w*tcjies ar * chiefly made by women and boys, Such watchos are pomposed of several hundred pieces, strewed and rivited together, and require constant re pairs to keep them in #ny kind o order. All persons who havs carried '-ancres," "lepfnes" sad "English Patent Levers," arc perfectly well aware oT ths truth of this statement. At the beginning of our enterpri«e,£more than ten years'ago, it vn»i our object to mako a thoroughly good low-priced watch for *tbe million, tot ike the place of these foreign impositions—the refase of foreign facto ries—which wore ontirely unsaleable at home aud per fectly worthless everywhere. flow well we bare accomplished this may be under stood frotn the fact, that after ao many years of public trial, we now make MORE THAN ONE-HALF OF ALL THE WATCHES SOLD IN Til K UNITED STATES, an.l that no others have ever given such universal satisfac tion. While th(s department of oar business is contin ued with increased facilities for perfect w«»rk, wt are at present en<rag«d in the manufacture of watches of the verv HIOfIEBT GRADE KNOWN TO CnRONOMETRY unequalled by anything hitherto made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by anything made in the world. For this purpose we have the amplest facilities. We hav« erected an addition to our main buildings expressly for this branch of our business, and have filled it with the brtH workmen in our service. New machines nnd appli ances have been constructed, which perform their work with consummate delicacy and exactness. The choicest and moat approved materials only are used and we chal lenge comparison l>etween this grade of our work and the finest imported chronometers. We do not pretend to sell our watches for leu money than foreign watches, but we do assert without fear of contradiction that for the same money our product is incomparably superior. A!1 our watches, of whatever grade, are fully warranted and his warrantee is good at'all times against us or our agents in.all parts of the world.
