Its history is nobly writteu iii the history

Again the policy of reconstruction was
indicated by•Cougrese. in, the winter of
1861-65, wll'en it passed nearly ottani
trionsly anclvvit honk yeas and nasts, a joint
resolUtion that the Vice .r;President, in as
sorting the p. L esidenqal yotes,ishould not
count the electoral votes of any State
that had been engaged in the rebellion.
Thatlwas intended to proclaim that until
Congress removed ilheir disq.salification
by hews resto:rin!7 tll'em to their rights,
theylshould4tatid l+k. Cong.ress, has,
therefore, by, these two striking enact
ments,.
indicated its policy of recon

' The President of( thh United States, in
his proelawOlon last May appointing pro

States which levl lalqn in, rebellion were
without civil government. That was a
fact as palpable asithe stars when they

I believe it ,Would:dav'e hastened the work

What Parc,. Stephens - Thinks.
Mr. Alexander FLStevens, of Geo . tgia,
in his testimony before the Congressional
committee on the condi.ion of the states
lately in rebellion, expressed the opinion
that the genOal government had no right'
to make any Condition precedent to the
readmission of the stales which rcbelled,'
•
to all th:ie rights and privileges iii
Union. He holds that neither Congress'
oar the . President had the tight to make
.
any conditions wi th these states; that
their rights to representation, &o , were
uninterrupted by their own action, inas
much as tht- action was disowned by
Congress. The following passar , e from
his teitimony, as we'find 'it reported , in
the World. gives his opinions ou this itu•
portant subject :
'The people of- Georgia, as I have said,
would not willingly, I think, do more than
they have done for restoration. The only
view, id their opinion, that cooly possibly
[ justify the war which was carried on by the
federal government against them, was the
idea of the indissolubleness of the Union ;
that those whh held ;be administration fur the
time were bonnd to' enforce the execution of
[ the laws, and; the maintenance of the integ
rity of the UniOn ender the Ccnstitution ; and
sinee that waS accomplished, since those who
' had assumed the contrary principle—the right
' of secession sad the reserved sovereignty of
the states—had abandoned their cause/ and
[ the administrii.tion here was successful in
maintaining the idea upon which the war was
proclaimed and waged, and the only v.ew on
which they supposed it could be justified at
' all, and when that was accomplished, I say
the people of Georgia supposed their state
,was iinmedidtely entitled to all her rights
tinder the Constitution.j They expected that
its soon ns the Confederate cAuSe was aban
doned, itnmediately the states would be
brought back into their practicAl relations
with the governmen tits reviously constituted.
That is what they looked to. They expected
that the state would immedidtely have their
representatives in the House, and they ex
pected in gond faith, as loyal men, as the, term
is frequently( used—l mean by it, loyal to law
and order and to the Constitution—to sup
port the government under the Constitution.
That *as their feeling." , •
Mr. Stephens here does what, as a law
yer, he should know he is debarred from
doing; the law very justly bolds that no
' man shall take advantage of his own
wrong—that is to Say, be cannot protect
himself behind a statute he has violated;
he must not expect to plead•the flagrancy
of his crime as his justification. Mr.
Stephens appeals to the Constitutiob, and
stands upon his rights, and evidently be
lieves that be and the men rately in, re.
hellion can there rightfully and isafely
stand. Sat if be•pleads the Constitution
does be not see that under that instru.
went he is only an unhuog traitor ? Does
he nut perceive that if we are to go sArictly
acdordingto law, the first thing we must
do is to arrest Mr. Stephens, and all who
aided or abetted the great treason, bring
them to itrial at our convenience, and
hang them under the very Constitution
and law which be pleads ?
lie urges that ithe states lost none of
their rights by the rebellion. Must true;
but the rebels in them—all men who, in
any way,' took part in or gave aid and
comfortto the rebellion—lost till their
rights. They are not "the state," except
so far as' ie general government chooses
to recognise them; the loyal people, the
faithful Unionists of Georgia, those who
served in ihe l Union armies, or who, una
ble to do that, kept themselves clear from
any participation with treason and rebel
lion—these only are "the state" in the
sense in which Mr. Stephens ; uses the
words. i. And if the suffrage were con
fined to them alone, if all civil rights bad
been taken away from Mr. Stephens and
those who with him took part in the re
bellion,ltben his theory would be correct
—but henshe would not be in Washing
ton urging it.
.
We did not chose to execute the laws
upon Mr. Stephens and his confederate
traitors'; we prefeired mercy to justice;
the American people were content that
their government should give to Mr.. Ste
phens and other notorious traitors and
rebels, not only the lives they had for
feited to the laws, but liberty 83 well; not
only liberty' but property; not only , prop
erty, ,but civil rights ; not only civil
rights, bat even political rights: But
i
surely it is astounding impudence n men
so treated, to turn round and lecture fire
upon their "constitutional rights.' Their
.'constitutional right" is to be hanged;
and because we very sensibly •believe
hapgidg to be a very poor use to make of
so large a number of men, therefore
they ere not to forge't that they, are
criminals, and, as Nit.. Stephens now does,
lecture loyal and patriotio men upon their
constitutional duties..
We repeat, if the men who were en
aa,,e'ed in the rebellion insist upon their
e l onstitntional riolts they do a very im
prudent act. Mr.. Stephen's theory of
the Unimpaired rights cif the states is T3ry
correct; we have asserted it many timei,
in - these column- hitt "he is Rot ii.he
state; "ttie men, wno with .hitn wont into
rghoiion trr not inembeis of-t•the.stotty!;
Strictly, tit. legally, or constitutionally—
as Mr. Stephens urges legal claims and
appeals to justice and 'the COwitittition
-44t he state" - of Georgia cotraiste of the men
in it who remained faithful , to the Union
throughout the late straggle; if we arts,
at the biddicig of Mr. Stephens,_ to oomo
to strict legal aCtiou, they alone and- node
others will either vote or bold officer rep
resent or be-represented.
We have on several occasions urged
that Congress should admit to scats such
loyal wen as Colonel Johnson, of Arkan
sas ; but it has not occurred to us to ad
vocate this enure-upon Mr. Stephens' ex
traordi nary theory of the inalienable rights
of traitors tq rule, according to their own
notion„ \V believed it expedient to
eneeulitge the 'Pdi.etion of loyal represent-1
fumes in the southern states, ..by_ the ad-
Missionlof finch men. , as.ColonefJohnson ;
just as 'we- hold that:the general `govern'-

Yet, with all - declare I am all

Radio:than) weans the rejection of what
it bui,and preservation of what is good,
and it always 'weans the right of the ma
jority of the people (o govern: l The end
less perpetuation of the Federal Union id
the gist of radicalism. - Everything must
be subordinate and yield to that. Extorted
oaths of allegiance are not worth a cent.
They make few men loyal. They, from
whOrn they are taken, think with Huth
blas,`that-
‘•Fie who imposes an oath breaks it,
Not he whe for couviaienee takes it."
If the heart is not on the lips the oath
is a mockery. Tennessee
which is but another name for Unionism
—does not desire rebels or their sy.capa
thizers to rule the State of Tennessee or
the Governweat of the United States.
Briefly we have stated what the truly
loyaltmen of Tennessee uodestand by the
terra Radical. Thus understanding the
proper definition of the term, the loyal
men of the State have no objection to hay
itif, applied to them (what is attempted,
tole made <id Imes) the term Radical.
There is little in flames or titles
"Worth makes the man,
The want of it the fellow."
A rose by any other name smells as
sweet. A pole-cat or conservative by any
other name emits' the saint) odor. The
attempt is now being wade, by rebels and
copperheads, to make treason respectable
by applying to its opponents the term
radical. In 1861 the men who now de
nounce their opponents as 'radicals at
tempted to make loyalty odious by de
nouncing Union men as Lincolnites and
Abolitionists. The failure to crush out
loyalty by this method has not been more
slanl than will the attempt to do so' by
yelping Radical ! Radical ! Redical•! I
Several weeks since we proclaimed that
the editors of this paper were radicals.—
Our,enetnies have been readiOg from this
editorial and lending the paper to their
neighbors. We doubt not that conserve
tives,who take our paper and conserva
tives who do not, will be gratified to get
another copy reiterating the declaration
that we arc radicals. Believing they can
alienate the people from Union men by
denouncing them as "radicals," they will
be thanktul for any evidence to prove that
they . belong to what is termed the radical
party.
"Live or die, sink or swim, survive (or
perish, " we plant ourselves on the plat
form of the so called radical party of the
country. If East Tennessee copperheads
who desire to break down the Knoxville
Whig, can gather any comfort from the
