The Journal Of Commerce assailS that portion
Of the American Press which, professedly dopre-
eating civil war, proposed to leave the question
of Union or DisuniOn to fair vote, after iull
and faithful discussion of the Southern People.
We are proud to be reckoned in that category.
The Journal assumes that they would have voted
for Secession. We do not aSsume-we can prore
not merely that they probably could haze roted
that they actually did vote, to remain IN the
Union. We have summed up that vote, SO Tar
as it was attainable, in "1he American Con-
flict, and we defy The Journal to impeach its
accuracy and fairness. Secession was never
the choice, the voluntary act, of the Southern
masses. On free, fair vote, there was large
majority in the Slave States for the Union with
out conditions.
But even this does not express the whole truth.
Tens of thousands voted for Secession AS deii-
ance to Northern threats Of coercion They
voted-not that they wished to leave the Union
but that they would not be held in it by force.
"Will you let the Yankees whip you into sub
mission! ?" was the appeal that made thousands
Rebels. We did not wish any fighting: they
would have it, and they got enough of it, And
The journal Of Commeree was their servant their
lacquey, their convenience, from the hour where
in they wickedly, wantonly made war on the Re-
public, until the Government was obliged to sup
press 1t. Nop it talks as though in had
stood It the front rank of the eoercion
lists. We, certainly, did not. We never pro-
posed to force nor buy, nor wheedle, nor be
scech the South to remain in the Union. Il
was never necessary to do either. A simple
profIcr by the North that the South, faithfully
canyasscd and fairly polled should decide, by
majority vote of her people, whether to stay II
the Union or 20 out Of it, wouldhaye discounted
the plotters, recemented the Union, and saved
the awful carnage and waste Of the war Scores

DOOuITTLE AT ROME.

The detection of Mr.. Doolittle has attracted
the attention of the Legislature of the State
which Mr.. Doolittlc misrcpresents. Wisconsin
most emphatically condemns the Presidents
veto in the following resoution-ior which all
the Republicans in both Houses voted:
"Ws should be guilty Of deceiyng the President and
Of .sf.r,prsuH.ng our constituents. II We failed M THIS
time 10 declare that his message letoing the Freed
mems Bureau bill IN Its general tone ana eprlt, has

dEf supporters In State, and las been hailed win
e,ubefant Joy and erutaton by every man who sgspd
tbi.ed nth ne ReJe0n who was cold and Indifferent
when treason threatened the lie OF the Republic
They next put on record this straightforward
declaration of opinion:
THAT we most cordially iadors, aud opprore Of hs
acfion Of such SrGiOTs and Rprsentgres az Con-
gy,ss Us firmly and consistently supported the Freed
mems Bureau bill md who have persisently asserted

Of such States shall hare Posrey suardneed egnat and
efacf jusiice 10 oil men pithiH heir b0rdys."
As Mr.. Doolttlc did not - firmly and con-
sistently" support the bill, and does not assert
the right of Congress to determine on the adj
mission Of Rebel representatives,, and does not
resist. but favors, their admission, he is more
pointedly rebuked by this resolution than if he
had been singled out by name His colleague,
Mr.. Howe, and the Wisconsin Representatives
in the House, are nobly upheld by their constitu
ents at home. This resolution was adopted IN
the Senate by II to 10, and III the House
by 62 TO 32-nays in each case being
Copperheads. IL is remarkable that the eX-
ample Of Mr.. Doolittlc does not influence
a single Republican legislator in his own
State. IL is stated also, that petitions
are pouring into the Wisconsin Legislature
praying that Mr.. Doolittle may be requested to
resign. Nor does he fare any better in his own
town than in the State at large, for The Racine
Adrocate Indignantly says:
"Messrs Raymond and Doolitile may be In the con.
idence Of President johnson, and larry represent his
sentiments II such proves TO be- tue case We would
not give copper for the choice between Buchanan's
aud onson place IL the future history OF our country
II will be recorded that In both cases the people knew
more than their President and possessed the integrity
and patriotism necessary TO preserve their country In
ito hours Of danger"
Mr.. Doolttle may not resign, but ne certainly
will not be able to ray that he acts in accord
ancc with the wishes of the Legislature of Wis
consin.
New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1866-03-06

We have already published the positive state
ments Of two spondents-one OF them
week before the yeto-that President Johnson
did at one time expressly approve the Freed
mems Bureau bill. The following is still more
precise and circumstantal:
Gen Howard returned from two weeks absence at
the North but few days before the message WIS re
ceiyed by the Senate. and was among the most de-
pressed OF all the disappointed For months past be
had been On terms of the closest friendship as lie sup
posed with the President AID had received cordial
concession to every request with but one or two ex-
cepiOns Upon his return from his Southern tonr IN
November be had long and most satisfactory confer
ences at the White House in which bis views concern
ing the necessary continuance OF the Bureau with con-
siderable enlargement Of power. were frankly gwen
and entirely approved. Still later when the DRAFT OF the
bill lad been finished IL was submitted for Executive
sinn. and after careful examination was entirely
approved. And thus until the moment Of the Gen
erals departure for the North. he heard nothing
nothing 20 awaken the slightest doubt OF the hnal
result. In answer To a friend who asked II he was
quite that the bill would be approved after ITS pass
age he replied with spirit: Ny dear sir that bill has
Jssn approved by the President over and over again.
What, yer he may think expedent about suffrage be Is
one OF the warmest and truest friends of the Bureau
and will approve every extension OF Its authority which
Congress will permit Only get the blu through the
Capitol and will not be delayed twenty hours at
the White Honse.
Tho Generals ohagrin when the truth became
known scarcely remove RON despair. fOT ne
saw too clearly that consistency with the message
would necessitite the early winding up Of it, affairs.
and the almost immediate suspension OF Its effective
jurisdiction
If il be not true that the President declared
his approval of the bill to Gen. Howard, We
think Gen. Howard ought to say so. AT pres
ent he stands in the position of one who by his
silence assentS to a charge publicly and repeat
eddy made against the President. Mr..
Senator Trumbull is understood to have
stated that to him also the President expressed
his entire satisfaction with the bill, before it
was introduced in the Senate. Those Senators
who are known as friends Of the President,
Messrs Cowan, Doolttle, &c.-they
voted for the bill on its passage and must be
presumed to have known how the Presidential
mind then stood on the question. In short,
there is a great amount OF evidence that the
Freedmen's Bureau bill was framed and pre-
sented to Congress with the entire assent and
appreciation of the President, both in substance
and in detail. Nobody, as yet, contradicts or
denies these statements, and the question recurs.
When did the President change his mind, and
whyl
