President JOHNSON, in his recent speech 70 The
Indiana delegation. thus vigorously expressed a
sentiment which has ever been a corner stone in
the democratic party. De remarked While
have opposed dissolution and disintegration on
the one hand. on the other AN equally opposed
70 consolidation or the Capitalization of power in
the hands Of few" The democratic party has
always ccntended against the Capitalization OF
power, and this issue one OF the dividing
lines between the democratic and federal parties
in the early days Of the Republic. In the enun-
citation OF the sentiment we have quoted, the
president announces to the country that he in
tends to adhere faithfully to the political opinions
which he has entertained and advocated through
his public career.

time should not be given tc the prisoner t.

sB The NESRoEs AND THEIR LATE
MAsTERs.-What to do with the negroes
freed from slavery is now, perhaps the
Incst ptrplexing measure that the President
a,nd the administration have before them.
1t is an easy matter 20 find fault, but it is
)ften extremely difficult to suggest rene
ly. The very fact that all parties, and
'hsdes SI- .fsllies., ,aom loyal patriots down
o rebel leaders and rebel sythpathisers, are
hiding fault with some of his measures,
,ome condemning what Others approve,
shows that he is as nearly right as it is
spired ly higher power. This negro
question is as complicated as it is important.
1t i;, indeed, the great question, not only
OF this country but of the age. The people
OF the whole civiiized'world are interested,
snd are not IDLE spectators who look on its
solution by this government, with cold in
difference. 1t is evident that many of the
Shareholders have not yet accepted, and are
un"il ing to accept the fact, that slavery is
forever abolished, and secretly endeavor to
accomplish, by the political treachery of
Northern allies, the revival and re-estab-
lishment of this unch ristian, demoralizing
and Godforsaken institution. the cause of
all our woes as well as their own. No good
patriot, and no true democrat can now favor
the re-establishmeht of human slavery, in
reference to which, the great apostle Of de-
mocracy, Thos. Jefferson, said ''he trembled
when he thought that God was just and
he hoped the day was not far distant when
the curse of slavery would be banished from
Virginia.
n There is but one way tina. Southern trai-
tnrs can be dealt with, until they show some
evidence that they do not take the oath
with the mental reservation recommended
by Reyerdy Johnson, but in good faith. Tn
til they show that they are. honest and
loyal, keep them under military surveillance
and put down traitors and treason as soon as
they are developed. The President, if we
understand his views, assumes, and properly
