JACKS0NIAN VIEWS ON THE CAMPAIGN. A VOICE t il OJtt THE TOMB LET1ER FROM AMOS KEKDALL. Kendall Green, Aug. 20, '68. Alexander Rutherford, Clir'tnn, de. Dear Sir I duly received yoar letter of th 15th insr., as ohairmsn of committee of Jackson Democratic As sociation, inviting ma to attend at the dedication of their hall on the evening of Thursday next, and expressing the belief that my association with General Jackson will enable me, "to add to the interest of the occasion. In reply, I have the honor to thank you and your committee for remember ing me in my Beclusion and to inform you that ray duties elsewhere on that evening, aud my disinclination at tho age of seventy-nine years to mingle in political excitements, forbids an accept ance ot your kind invitation, liut re cognizing tho duty of every living man to do what he can to serve bis country in times of danger, I have no hesitation in communicating to you and your asso ciation the views I entertain upon the issue involved in tbo election of this year. Of the men wbo are candidates I have nothing to say. It seems to mo the duty ot every true patriot in this mo mcntuuus crisis to think only of tho great principles and results involved, and overlooking all that is meroly per sonal in the candidates, consider them aa merely instruments in maintaining those principles and affecting those results. A vast majority of our Northern people went into the war for the preservation ot the Union- The war was successful and the Union was preserved. The rebels everywhere laid down their aras and peaje was restored throughout the land. All that was needed to make that peace perpetual was State officers in all the scceeding States sworn to support the constitution ot tbe United States. Trn, every man who bad born arms agaiusi the United States, and everyone who had given them aid and comfort had, under the constitution and existing laws, incurred the penalties of death and confiscation. Fro.n these penalties they could bo relieved ouly by tbe con stitutional pardoning power, or by trial and acquittal in the courts. Tbe sub ject was exclusively executive and ju dicial, and altogether beyond tho right ful jurisdiction of the legislative power. Now, who docs not know that had tbe amnesty proclamations of the President been allowed to have their legal effect, and the Southern States been permitted to reorganize themselves under officers sworn to support the constitution ot the United States, we should long ago have had peace and comparative prosperity throughout our borders T Why is it not so 7 It is attributable entirely to the usurpations of Congress. That body began by adopting the absurdity that tho successful war for the preservation of the Union had in fact destroyed tho Union ; that in compelling the ecced. ing States to remain in the Union our armies had in tact thrust them out ; and that however anxious the Southern people might be to stay in cr get in they oould not do so without assenting to such conditions as Congress might pre scribe. If the vuccesg of the war put the Southern States out of the Union, would its failure have kept thorn in ? On this absurdity was based the entire reconstruction legislation of Congress. They assumed that the eeccding States instead of boing portions of our great republic were altogether foreign, and that their people, instead of being re pentant rebels, were conquered enemies. Upon these pretexts they took them out of the constitutional supervision of tbe executive and judicial departments of the government and subject them to the unlimited power of Congress, irres pective of tho constitution. Instead of leaving them to be pardoned under tbe laws in existence when their crimes were committed, they passed ex post facto laws, imposing upon them new 1 1 f .,..1 r anu uunearu 01 uisaDiiiues, irom wnicn their victims could, according to their theory ana practice be roheveu only by the usurping and absolute power wnich had imposed them ; and when the Pies, ident and judiciary indicated a disposi tion to exercise their constitutional righu, they sought to deprive them of their rightful Dowers of legislation and by tbreata of punibsment by impeacb taont. Thus practically baa Congress euoverwa me constitution, and, on this subjeot taken into their own hands all the powers of governmentlegislative, executive and judicial. If their theory were truo, instead of being false, as it is, ELIC FOR THE RIGHT RIDG WAY, PENNA., SEPT.,2Z, 1863. wbere did thoy get the power to legis late over tho secceding States to treat them as outlaws and put them out of the pale of civilized and republican insti tutions f Not, surely, in tbe constitu tion of the United States. And if not tbere what rightful power bad they be yond that of any other body of usurpers not bearing tbe title of members of Congress, to legislate over these people at all 7 Tbe party which has produced all this wrong, usurpation and opprcs sion calls itself republican. Before and during the war its leaders maintained that the Southern States had not repub lican government because the negroes had no right to Tote. The sama men havo joined in imposing governments upon these States in which large num bers of white men have no right to vote; and yet these governments are republi can enough for them. And these re publican leaders have shown their re gard for republican government by the scheme lately concocted at Washington ana sent out to be executed by their tools in the South, for taking even from these new fledged voters the right to vote ior residential doctors a right long exerciseJ by every State in the Union except South Carolina, the most aristocratio in the Confederacy. And (his plan has been actually adopted in Florida, and so far defeated in Alabama by the veto of a Southern born Govern or, who strangely imagines that modern republicanism means something more than a design to retain controll of the government, even at the expense of every truly republican principle and in. stitution. Look at the rest of the new States which Congress has admitted into the Union, without the population of a second rate oity, each having as many Senators as old States with their swarming millions. Is it republican that twenty thousand votes in the Wes. tern plains and mountains should have the same representation in the Senate and the same rote for President, in oase of an election by the House of Repre sentatives, as a million of voters in N. i ., Pennsylvania, Ohio and other creat States ? Yes, it if. modern republican ism; it is that republicanism which tramples upon every fundamental prin ciple of free government to secure po litical power ; which casts the constitu tion behind it when it is an obstacle in its way ; which dispenses with the civil authorities in peaceful States and gov erns with the bayonet; which takos suffrage from inteligence and vests it in ignorance ; which imposes constitutions on unwilling communitics,under threats of military coercion, and calls them free States ; whioh would impeach an honest rresident tor attempting to protect and defend a violated constitution, and de prives an upright judiciary of its legit imate jurisdiction lest it should commit tbe same offence; which punishes crimes cancelled by the pardoning power, and compells citizen, by test oaths, to testi fy against themselves ; and which arro gates to itself, over ten States, notwith standing the constitutional limitations of its authority, all the powers claimed and exercised by tbe veriest despot on earth. Iiut thore teems to be a pause in tbe mad career of the usurpers. Recot struction, lately urged on with railroad speed, seems to be suddenly suspended. What is the matter t Do the tools so eagerly grasped by the usurpers begin to cut their own fiogers 1 Do the ne groes begin to relell against their new masters F Is it certain that their new fledged voters in the South will not vote against the radicals in the approach ing Presidential election I Behold their expedients to avoid such a calamity ! The first is to take from the people in the reconstructed States the right to vote for electors. The second is to deny to the unreconstruotod States the right to choose electors iu any mode. By these two expedients they expcot to secure the eleotoral votes of tbe one class of States and avoid the danger of having the vote of the other cast against them Of the latter class of States are Virgin ia, Mississippi and Texas. Is Virginia in the Union or out t She went to war to get out and was forced to stay in. If sue is not in now who has put her out f What but Congress f And has Coo- press power to put States out ot the Union f Ihey havo practically usurped that power and have passed an aot prohibiting that and the other unrecon structed States from taking part in the approaching Presideniial election. If OdnffMto fan ar mill rtnt fitotaa ai.I rvf tbe Union and can establish a military empire outsida of tbe Union, woe be unto the cause of liberty within tbe Union. Tho members of Congress cannot es cape their responsibility to tho people and their allegiance to tbe constitution by any eucU subterfuge. The people AT ALL. TIMES. will ask them why they denied all rep resentation to the Southern people in Congress, when, in their unquestioned privilege to judge of the qualifications of their own members, they bad tho power to cxclndo all members elect who had taken pait in the rebellion or were disloyal to the government. They will ask why they suspended the writ of habeas corpus in ten peaeetul elates, subjecting the people thereof to a mili tary despotism when the constitution expressly forbids the suspension of that writ, except "In case of rebellion or in vasion' and then only when "the pub lio safety may require it." They will ask why, when there was no resistance to the civil oourts, the citizens of ten States have been subjece to military tribunals in violation of positive law and most sacred principles of freo govern ment ? They will ask why so many little States have been carved out of tho Western wilderness; why the Presi dent has been impeached and the Su preme Court threatened and paraliaed ; why Consrress has usurped power to regulate the suffrage in tho States; why, in the exercise ot this power every male negro in the South twenty one years of age has been mado a voter and multi. tudes of white men disfranchised : why, by tx pott facto laws, they impos.d new disabilities upon men who have been pardoned by tho President ; why they have removed them from many of tbe most notorious rebels and enforced them upon the less guilty ; and, finally, why do they now propose to deprive even the negroes as well as the whites in tbe South of tho right vote for Presi dential electors 7 To all these questions and many more, tbe raaical leaders can in truth give but one answer, and that is ; "We intend to keep possession of the government. We feared the people of the Southern States would vote against us if they were suffered to re main in the Union, and for that reason alone we practically thrust them out. Wo know they would still vote agaist us if allowed to come in on the basis of the constitution, and for that reason we bad to legislate outside of the constitu tion,' assume the power to regulate suffrage, enfranchise the negroes, dis franchise tho whites and impose upon them constitutions virtually of our own making. Fearing there might tie some resistance to our plan for securing to our party tbe votes of the South by dis- tranchising the whites and subjecting them to the government of their late slaves, we thought it necessary to sus pend the writ ot habeas corpus and put them all under martial law. The Pres ident was in our way, and we stripped him of his legitimate powers .as far as we could by legislation, and not satisfied rvitb that, we would have removed hi in from office, but for treason in our own ranks. It was rumored that the Su preme Court would set aside all our legislation 'outside of the constitution,' and to prevent that we restricted its jurisdiction nod denounced its members. Sad to relate, our new fledged voters ot the South most ungratefully showed signs unmistakably of a disposition to go over to tbe enemy ; so, to make sure of the votes of the reconstructed States for our candidates next fall we have advised their legislature, composed chieSy of our minions, to take the appointment of electors in tboir own hands ; aud as Virginia, if reconstructed, would imme. diately follow tbe example of the ad joining States Maryland and Kentucky and go for the Democratic ticket by an overwhelming majority, we determ ined to prevent the catastrophe, and have decreed by an act of Congress, though outside of tbe constitution it may be, that she, as well as Miasituippi and Texas, shall have no vote at all. We remove the disabilities of every red handed rebol who will vote out ticket, and enforce them upon, every man who seems inclined to vote against us. Ia short, the political power of the nation we are determined to retain by any and all necessary means, whether inside or outside of the constitution.' " Such is the practical language of tbo radical leaders. And if you ask. them how they expect to induce the people of the North to sustain them in these open outrages upon tho constitution and every principle of republican liberty they virtually answer, "We have a pop ular Union soldier as our candidate for tbe Presidency, and we expect the peo ple to lose sight of the principles in volved in their admiration nf the man. In addition to this, we have powerful arguments in ringing the changes, through our organs and orators, upon tbe words rebcl.coppehead.svmpathizer. traitor to the party, &c, &c." What but these are the nieucs employed to so oure the ascendancy of the radical par- rir in fl a fnll fMAitfmna V Ani n A jet hao j iug subjected the white ijjou oi tic VOLUME EIGHT NUMBER 24. South by military coercion to the do mination ot the reoently emancipated slaves, less fitted to exercise the right of suffrage than the women and half grown children of tho North, and led on by adventurers who seek to use tbem'as their instruments to secure office and riches, the radical leaders fill tho country with the cry, "Let us have peace." Yes with their feet upon the necks and their bayonets at tho breasts of the white people of the South, they cry, "Let us have pcaoe."JJJLct us have tame submission to all the measures of our party to secure their own ascendan. cy, however unconstitutional, unjust and oppressive. And if any of their victims evince a disposition to resist their usur pations and oppressions and seek relief, even by peaceful means, they denounce them as unrepentant rebels, seeking a renewal of the civil war. Has any man, worthy to bo trusted in public life, read so little of history, or studied human nature so unprofitab'y as to believe that the white people ot the South are pacified by being thrust out of the pale of the constitution and sub ject to the absolute power of their latoly emancipated slaves r lias ages ot op pression made Ireland love England f lias oppression and massacre recoi- oiled the Poles to the domination of Russia 1 Human nature is the same everywhere. Rtduccd to despair by oppression, tbe oppressed will resort to desperate remedies. Nay, where all hope is lost, they will sooner rush on death itself than lwe degraded and dis honored lives. If there be any people in the world who will not submit to hopelass oppression it is those who have been raised under tbe free institutions ot the United States. Let each voter of the North ask himself how be would feel, and what he would do, if an usurp ing Congress were to deprive him of tbe rights of a freeman and subject him in life, liberty and property to the absoluto control of ignorant and penniless negroes As he would answer that question so let him act. Let him not wonder that notes such as he himself might utter under like ciroumstanoes reach his ears occasionally from tbe Soutb : and let him ask nimselt whether he is prepared by his vote to reproduce on tins conti nent tbe conduct of England towards Irelatd and ot Russia towards Poland. No nan of sense andja'e ligence can ex peot in the South so long as a large por. tion of ibe white population are exclu ded from all participation in their own government, and exposed to be plun dered and oppressed by their own slaves, led on by adventurers from tbe JNortb. They laid down their arms in good taith : they cave up tbeir slaves ; they surrendered the principles ior which they bad lougbt ; they accepted tbe poverty to which they were reduced.anu they sought only to be allowed the privilege of free und loyal citizens un der the old flag. This Prcsidont Lin coln, and President JoJnson, following in his footsteps, desired to concede to the nr. The former fell by the bands of a rebel assassin ; the latter has becu ferociously hunted by an other class of assassins. The policy ot the two Presi dents was identical; and yet our radicals, with singular inconsistancy, deify the dead Lincoln and cruoifv the livin? Johnson. Why is this f Lincoln is out of their way, and tbey would probt by his virtues ; Johnson is a lion in their path, and tbey would destroy him for his fidelity in attempting t) protect the constitution . What sort of peace ia to bo expected in the South eo long as white people are proscribed and negroes allowed to gov ern may be lately inferred from the condition of those reconstructed States Louisiana and Tennessee. Their Governors and Legislatures are calling for military aid, avowing their incapa city to maintain jeace and enforce tbe laws by the civil authorities. It this be so. it is conclusive proof that Congres sional reconstruction, as means of tranquiliziog the South, is a failure. Tho road to peace U ia an other di. rection. Let Congress retire within tbe limits of the constitution. Let them abolish their test oaths and remove all their disabilities. Let them restore to the President his legitimate functions, and allow his pardons to have their con. stitutional effect. Let them strengthen instead of weaken the judiciary, and sustain it in its full exercise ot its pow. ers for the protection of both the white and the black. Wipe out as with a sponge all yovr ex pott facto legislation, and restore to all the States their constitutional rights. Do this and you will havo penoo. Tho men whom you now hold disfranchised aul have pushed to the verge of despair will become your surities tor the preb. ervation of peace aod the restoration of 1 nrir. ReveMo the p icfure and what are the prospects of this country 1 Attempt to sustain the negro governments by force, and you reduce the proscribed white men to despair. Your army, instead of being reduced, must be doubled. Tbe taxes instead of being diminished must be increased. If Congr s cannot (as they have not) prevent an increase of our frightful national debt in time of peace, what mountains must be added to it by a renewal of war 7 And in ih6 anarchy which must ensue what is to become ot our republican institutions f Are we, like tie people of eo many other republic! which have lived and perished, destined to seek lor repose in) the hands of military despotism J I implore my countrymen to look the dangers ot tha crisis in thejface, and so use the powsr left to them as to secure Union, peace and prosperity without further resort to proscription or the sword. These views comes from one who a-ned the South against secession aa the road to ruin, but in vain ; from one who warned the Demooratie party against yielding to the counsels of a few leaders who were lukeworm or worse, in support of the war for the Union, but in vain ; from one wbo thinks he sees the fatal results of persist an ce inradioal reconstruction as distinctly as he fore saw the results of secession and the ef. feots of Democratic policy duriog the war ; from one who wants nothing from his covernment but to be proteoted and let alone ; from one who must soon be summoned before bis maker to account for the manner in which be has dischar- ed his duties to his Qod, bis country and his fellow men.
