TIE PREgIpExr,s SUPPOSED VIEWS or PATTY

The PRESIDENTS SUPPOSED VIEWS on PARTY
FEALTY.-A Washington dispatch of March 7th
says the President takes the livel;est interest in
the coming elections in Connecticut and New
Hampshire, and there good reasons for believing
that his sentiments expressed in the follow
ing letter from one of his confidential advisers
the Postmaster General, addressed to Patterson
member of Congress :-'' have never intimated
to any Postmaster in your State elsewhere
how | would like him to vote, and never expect
tc do long as | remain in my present official
position. Nor have intimated to any Republican
Postmaster that to vote the Republican ticket
would be followed by removal from office or act
to his prejudice in any way. To do so would
imply purpose my part to dissolve my con-
nection with the Union Republican party, which
1 have never entertained. 1t is a possibility
which caEnotimagine. believe the interest and
glory of the country essentially depend upon the
vigorous maintenance and success of the Union
Republican party and its continual control Of the
GovcrnmeN for an indefinite term, and hence
never expect to act with any other political
ganization long as it exists.

Born CANNOT BE RIGHr.-The Virginia (Ne
vada) Enterprise says Either Congress or Pres
ident Johnson is prepared to do grievous wrong
to the nation. Which is best likely to express
the will of the people-to calmly adjust the diff
culties Of reconstruction? We know of what
material the present Congress is composed. 1t
is made up of men who have earned the right, in
council and field to be heard by the people-of
men whose patriotism and commanding abilities
entitle their opinions to respect-of men whose
peers are to be found only among the greatest of
the earth. They are the chosen representatives
Of the people, and when they speak, they echo
the sentiments Of twenty-five sovereign States
Opposed to them is Andrew Johnson, and at his
back the Copperheads and Knights of the Gold
en- Circle in the North and the murderers Of I'm
ion prisoners in the South. policy emanating
from two such sources could not but radically
differ. Between them the people must now de-
eide, and when they speak, further arguments
will be in vain.

them to "clear the docket" within the time
allowed them, without troubling themselves
with the little duties that have heretofore
devolved upon election boards As the ac-
cuscd has a right, guaranteed by the con-
stitution.to be defended by counselit might
be advisable in this connexioE to consider
how many cases could be tried within the
hours limited by the law, under the most
rapid mode of administering justice recog-
nized in our criminal jurisprudence; but
as desire to be brief, / waive this inquiry,
and state briefly the conclusion to which
have arrived namely:
l. That duly authenticated record OF
the trial and conviction by a Court Mdr
tial of any person who may offer his vote
at any election shall be produced before
the officers conducting such election, aid
such record shall show the approval of the
finding and sentences Of such court by the
President or the Secretary Of War, or Ma
w, as the case may be, it will be the duty
of such election board to reject such Vote.

on this ground Of challenge IN the absence OF
such record ev,dence of trial and conviction
would be unlaagful
In view ofthe grave responsibilities, civil
as well as criminal, incurred by election
officers through the unlawful denial Of the
right ofsuffrage, as we'll as of the penalties
threatened by the recent legislation for the
reception of votes of persons therein speci
fed, l have deemed this question one of
too great Importance to be lightly consider
ed, or to be viewed from mere partisan
stand point, and have therefore given to vt
such careful examination and considera-
ton as have been able to bestow. For
myself. have no doubt Of the correctness
of The conclusion above stated.
may add that in the absence of reco rd
evidence oftrial and conviction by court
martial of the offence of desertion, there
is no safer guide for election officers in the
performance of their duties then that af-
forded by the Constitution and general
election laws of this Commonwealth, with
which they have long been familiar.

a. Horace Maynard, one Of Brown


lows pimps from Tennessee who has been
making tour through the northern states
to enlighten white men as to their duties
in the coming elections, in a speech at
Athens, Tennessee on the 2lst ult. said:
II am an AboIitionist, and have always
been Que. / was accused of being one
WI en- / first emigrated to this State. The
charge was just; was full and running
over with Abolitionism, but / denied it
for policy sake. am proud to-day that
have been classcd among that prosecuted
set, and deem it the highest compliment to
be denounced as such. And l tell you,
gentlemen, that in short time all this
complaint about negro equality will be
done away with. Some months since it
was said that the negro would not be
suffered to testify in your courts-that his
oath would not be granted him.
"But how stand matters to day? He
is not only permitted to testify in your
courts with impunity, but there is every
evidence that he will soon be on a SOCIAL
EQUALITY WITH THE WHITE MAN IN YOUR
STATE. Yes, gentleman, IN A SHORT TIME
He WILL MARRY AND INTEsMARRY IN
YOUR FAMILIES. 1t is little Objectionable
today, but You will soon get over this, and
THE PERsECUTED NEGRO WILL BE WEI
CONE TO YOUR PARLoRs. This will be the
result of the political and social changes
ofthe next few months"
Of course such speakers are appropriate
to grace o. a Geary meeting. White
men and patriots would be out Of place.

The Deserter Law.

The deserter law passed by the last leg
isla ur- TO give effect to law of congress
Oh the subject with the decisions upon it,
has reeeiveds u very careful examination
by R r. Little Esq, the result OF which
he makes public in this weeks Democrat
THIS opiaion and argument is necessarily
brief-s.udidly so--but is irresis.ably con-
elusive. We hope all into whose hands
IL fa l. will read and preserve it for refer
ence, on the day of election. Let it be
shown to those Judges and Inspectors, if
any there be, who, disregarding their
oa,hs and the constitu tion, may. be dis
posed to deny any consttutionally quail
fed citizen the right of suffrage. Let
them not, when brought up for trial--as
they have heretofore donc-pIead igno-
rance Of their duties as an excuse for NAL
feasance in Office. If, in defiance of the
Constitution, and the laws, and in defiance
OF recent decisions Of the supreme and
district courts upon this question, they per
sist in denying to any one who is thus quail
flied the right to vote, let them be dealt
with according to law.
u may be asked by some. why, if this
law 10 null and void, the sheriff of the sew.
eral counties insert it in their procama-
tiOns. We answer that the Legislature
has full power to direct what shall appear
in such proclamation. They might, If they
chose. direct q congratulatory address to
the King OF Hayti, to be thus published.
But q disun'on Legislature has not the
power TO ret at nought plain provision of
the Constitution. That is above them
