in conriect ion with these 'principles and, the.

remain in tact,' riot' having been' abolished or

right unintimidated by ',armed'', rebels. -lint
'they.are . 'restrained; not by, the rebels bur. by

•', The President assumes that. the government
of Louisiana has been subverted by 'the-rebell
ot some ofilier sons, and that, a's a conse..
quence of that rebellion, all het . ..sons:have lost
their .rightof suffrage—an nssureption . without
reason or law. He then proceeds to grant that
right to,soch of. theni . as take an oath
prescribed. by Say rant, for howeVer
hy.conning phraseolOgy, - it ;mounts
to grant. The . - es.seere:of the transaction is
more, clearly expreSsed in. the following words,

made? —BLit - One pretext has been tillegedior it.
and that is scarcely worthy, of is,
that the President has- a right th.giant anam
nesty and annex:conditioes to that :arrmesty.- 7 -
We concede. thoprinciple, with' the.:reserva.Con
iliat the conditions Must in themSefvei he law
ful,. We admit that - When. a -citizen has for
feited life and property by rebellion, the Pres
'dent. 'nay spare his life:. by amnesty and - leave
his property - to confiscation.' But he cannot
accomplish any' unlawful' purpose .through - 'the
conditions of an • amnesty. - , He cannot over
throw State 'institutions through the,..conditions
of an amnesty to' .trattors.against the United

throw the State governments. He
cannot exuctan ontluCif treason to. the

as a condition of pardon. !or,, Hessen' against
the United States.'- he cannot rightfully'grant,
modify or 'restrict the right of suffrage within .
a State recognized; to be inn - the Union; for that
'entire “powerls - reserved to the , States or the

it , .llmptions of power would be less obnoxious
upon - the Suinnor theory,.unsoutid as it is, that

'in which no local governments exist. If such
wero . the law' the 'fa'st, . the -assupt ion of
power 'might not beSo . glaring. .But by recog
taztng Louisiana as a State in, the-Union, the
President that - her peciple have
the..stithe rights as the people of Massachusetts
and New York,an4 "yet' he treats them as if they
hadamright and no government.. A state in
the Union without a. gov,ernment 'whose people
have 'no right •ro: establish one withhut 'leave.

tisin.the.Snmner theory, this plan has one ilia
tinctive feature, which, mere not .the;:men in
