The True Issues in Our Present Political
Contest

The True Issues in Our Present Political
Contest.
THE clear statement OF case is often its best
argument More than half the disputes
among men are due to a misunderstanding
of each others positions. Especially is this
true OF political discussions, in which the real
issues are generally covered uD by thousand
false ones, and denunciation and sophistry
usurp the functions of candor and sound
reasoning
Applying these observations to the case in
hand, let us inquire-What are the real issues
involved in our present political contest?
We shall best answer this by first discarding
some o the false ones.
II we may assume the plan of reconstruc-
ton adopted by both branches of Congress as
constituting the platform of the Union Re-
publican parry, and the resolutions and ad-
dress of the late Convention in this city as
constituting that of the combined Opposition
we shall find, upon carefully inspecting each,
that they differ essentially only upon few
vital points. Each recognizes the overthrow
of slavery, the sacredness OF the national debt,
the heresy OF secession, and the duty of guar
anteeing the rights of person and property to
the freedmen. Each also recognizes the right
of imposing some conditions upon States that
have been in rebellion before they shall be
allowed to resume power in the Union. The
Congressional plan does this by proposing
certain conditions yet to be complied With /;
the Opposition does it by endorsing the im-
posing of certain conditions that have already
been complied with.
Nor is there any real dispute as to the right
of States in the Union to be represented in
Congress. Each comedies it. The point, and
the only vital point, OF difference between the
two parties is as to aohdt conditions shall be
imposed upon the States lately in rebellion
before their admission to full standing in
the Union.
The Opposition contends that the conditions
already imposed by the President, such as the
Constitutional amendment abolishing slavery,
the Reputation of the Rebel debt in some
cases. and the repeal of the ordinances oil
secession, are sufficient. The Union Repub-
licans contend that certain other conditions
shall be compiled with. 1t is worthy OF atten-
ton here that the reconstruction plan Of each
party involves the adoption of amendments
to the Constitution as a condition of restora-
ton. The Opposition endorses the amendment
abolishing slavery, and is content to rest
there, while the Union Republicans propose
an additional amendment
The false issue being thus cleared away
we find the true question to be simply this =
Shall any additional conditions be imposed
upon the States lately in rebellion before thei
complete restoration to power in the Union
The Opposition says "Nos" the Union Repub
Iicaas say Yes"

To complete our survey, we have simply to
inquire what further conditions of rpstora-
ton do the Republicans propose as proper
and just. They may be reduced to two:-
First, the equalization of representation as
one OF the consequences Of the overthrow of
slavery; and, secondly, the perpetual exclu-
sion from official position, State or national,
of "all persons who, having previously taken
an oath, as a member of Congress or as an
officer of the United States, or as member
OF any State Legis ature, or as an executive
or judicial officer of any tate, to support
the Constitution of the United States, shall
have engaged in insurrection or rebellion
against the same, or given aid or comfort to
the enemies thereof" This second condition
may, by vote of two-thirds of each House
be removed
AS TO the first of these conditions. it is suf-
flcient % remark that it provides Tor doing
away with the three-flfths representation Of
the old system. The specific proposition is,
that when in any State the right OF voting is
denied, or in any way abridged to any of the
male inhabitants of such State, except for
rebellion or other crime. its basis of Congress
sional representation shall be diminished in
the proportion that such distranchised citi-
Zens bear to the whole number of male
citizens twenty-one years of age in the State.
The simple long and short of it is to exclude
the black population OF the country from the
basis Of Congressional representation, except
where they are admit ed to the enjoyment of
the elective franchise
The second condition simply provides for
the exclusion from Office of those leaders in
the Rebellion who, in entering upon that
crime, violated their solemn oaths to support
the Constitution Of TIE United States.
The whole issue, therefore, is finally mar
rowed down to this-Whether these Two con-
diions of restoration, proposed by the Union
Republican party, are just and proper to be
imposed; or whether, as in the view of the
Opposition. those that have already been i'm
posed, and complied with, ought to be
deemed sufficient

The Wonderful
SPRING AT AspERsosvILLE. a


We copy the following from the
Vermont Chronicle "Mr. +.
9. Grant, who was q member Of
Battery A, Of the 11sh Vermont
Regiment, and who spent four
months within the stockad6 atAn-
dorsonville gives history of the
wonderful spring that burs, out
there that we never remomber to
have seen in print. Every one.
we presume, is aware that the pen
in which the prisoners were kept
enclosed was swamp, through
which ran sluggish brook, and
from this brook the prisoners re-
ccived their supply Of water. This
was never tit to drink in it's Lest
state, but, in addition to its natural
unfilness. it ran down by the rebel
camp before it entered the stockade.
AMI received tho excremcnt and
filth from that. This, of course
rendered il intolerable.
| About tho middle of August. Is.
81. or perhaps a month and half
after the Vermont boys eniered tho
stockadc, there came one day
very heavy thunder shower for
some forty minutes duration. And
from that time spring of pure
water bus. forth from n sand hill
near the DIAL line, and flowed in
such quantities as to supply tho
entire camp of some 25 900 or 80.
900 prisoners. Some ct the men
looked upon this rs a direct inter.
position of God for their salvation;

whence IL came "a dry. sandy
