NASHVILLE UNION.
AReBeI Organ on the Right of suf-
frage.


The Richmond Wing few weeks ago
published the following editorial, which
we commend TO those foreigners especial
ly who have been impressed or have
friends impressed in the rebel army:
IT is evident that stringent laws must
be adopted in regard to the exercise of
the right Of suffrage by all future emil
grants to the South. Either high free
hold qualification, or the possession Of
negro property, or, if no other means
will meet the case the entire exclusion
from any such franchise Of all future en-
igrants from the North except by special
act Of Congress. We have never been
able TO see why our own countrymen
should make this boon Of suffrage cheap
er than IL is in any other country on the
earth. In Great Britain, as free and
prosperous a nation as the world ever
saw, neither our own countrymen nor
natives Of any other country are permit
ted to vote except by special act of Par
lament. Whilst existing rights of resi-
dents before the war ought of course TO
be respected, we should rejoice to see a
total prohibition of suffrage to all North
erners who shall hereafter make the
South their home.

Curious Hint Concerning she Rebel
COnscription Act,
From the South Caroliniau

We learn by telegraph of the passage
of bill by Congress, pressing under con-
scriptiOn all over eighteen and under
thirty five, and to raise vast and per-
manet army without reference to the
States. This is great and mighty stride
to a military consolidation. If it be abb
solutely necessary to save us from con-
quest by the North, we are willing to
submit to it, but we fear the public mind
must prepare itself for a great change in
our government.
