The pusillauimous, cowardly Repub-
lican traitors in Congress have come
down, and are postponing, staving of
the questions between them and the
honest, patriotic, Union President, till
after the spring conventions, and cleo.

principle, which they understand very
we'll, that the more they stir, in these
matters, the worse they stink. They
have acted wisely in postponing, though
| in doing so, they acknowledge their
weakness, and plead guilty to the charge
of President johnson, which the coun-

infamous traitors as JEFF. Davis, Brock

A Temnerance convert,

The indianapolis Herald, the State
organ of the Copperheads, seems to be
changing its sactics on the temperance
question. In it's issue Of Friday last
several paragraphs occur that indicate q
willingness on its part to "scald the
Liquor Dealers pretty extensively. We
copy a couple of paragraphs which the
Copperheads ofaYanderburgh county
ought to put into their platform. Says
the Herald aa'si aa.
We are for regulating the sale of
liquor by proper license laws, to pre-
vent abuses, as far as reasonably can be
done, without perpetrating the greater
abuse of tyranny over q mans Proper
liberty. And, we think, reasonably
HIGH license tends to throw the bust
ness into the hands of good men, prevent
the too great Multiplication of the num-
Der of retailing houses, and secure the
proper management, and fairly remu-
nerative character, of the business by and
to those who engage in the business.
In other words, the Herald is in favor
of putting the license high enough to
destroy all the small, or retailing
houses" and give few mouopolists the
exclusive control Of the business. How
do the Retailing Houses of Evans
vile fancy that programmed The
Herald is edited by Judge Perkins, and
the shove is that gentIeman's deliberate
opinion on the whisky question.
The above opinion may have been ex-
torted from the. Herald by incidents like
the following, which we find in that pa
per Of the same date:
WHAT WHISKY DrD.--At the Office of
the township trustee, the other day, we
saw an old man, ~ years of age, and
the father OFF children, who is q county
pauper. This old man, some years ago,
was popular preacher of the Baptist
Church, loved and respected for his piety
and goodness of heart, and honored for
his intellectual strength. A word Of two
syllables contains the secret of mis- down
fall. He loved whisky-drank it--and
now, in his old age, ia miserable object
of county charity, lettering on the brink
of pauper'sgrave. Thsre is sermon
and warning in every white hair in
this poor old mans head, which rollick-
ing young men who make thoroughfares
Of their throats for a constant succession
of torchlight professions, would do well
to read and heed.
Whisky is doing, according to the
Herald, such terrible work that license
should be demanded high enough to
throw the business into the hands Of
good men, and prevent the multiplica-
ton of retailing houses" Now, VIC
respectfully ask the Liquor Dealers As.
ISOLATION if the Herald don't deserve
their immediate attention The :" Re
taIlers," especially, may well take alarm
when the Central organ of the Copper
head party thus declares war upon thei
interests.

Editors Journal: w
Not only rebels, copperheads and the
President, but even some good Union
men seem to think that there 10 no me-
cessity for a Freedman's Bureau; that
the people Of the late slave States viii
deal justly and humanely with the freed
men, and the President and many others
assert that the negroes are the only
persons who receive Government rations;
and this is one of the Presidents objec-
tions to the bill, it only contemplates food
for negroes, and evidently thinks that
this is white-man's Government;
consequently, it is unconstitutiona. in
providing rations for negroes, to the
exclusion of whites. Now, what are
the facts in the case.
Let rs examine report from the
Frsedmen's Bureau, for the District of
Mobile, for the week ending January
9Th, 1866. From this report it appears
that the number of rations iseued during
one week to destitute citizens of Mobile
was 5,194 Number of white persons
drawing rations, 624; number of coli
ored persons drawing rations, 81 num-
Der of persons 10 hospital at Dog River,
of both classes, drawing rations, 81.
Number of applicants for justice from
among colored citizens, viz: 1856; for the
collection of wages from white employ
ets, 30l; for whipping and other brutal
treatment from the banda Of white citi-
zens, Is; from the hands Of colored
citizens, 4; for protection from white
mobs in the streets, while employed in
their daily labor, 3.
From the above facts, the public can
judge as to whether the people of the
rebel States feel disposed to deal hon.
estly, fairly and humanely with their
former slaves, or whether the Freed
mems Bureau is necessary or not, 70
protect them in their rights, until they
are fully prepared to take care of them
selves. II 10 plain enough to see that
when BOZ persons apply in one sOesk for
the protection. of the Bureau in securing
to them their just dues for services rem
dered, and that, too, in one district, bni
little disposition is felt by the rebels Il
deal fairly and honestly with their for
mer slaves, and that it is duty to them
to humanity, and civilization, to protec
them in their rights from injustice ant
brutality, on the part Of those who have
done all, and are still doing all the.

A g constitutional J, democrat.

There is not more noisy Copperhead
in Congress than ore Rogers Of New
Jersey. Heoi is up on every occasion.
A report of one days proceedings with
ont his name appearing in it, would be
as much Of an anomoly as the play of
Hamlet, with the part of Hamlet left
ont. Rogers regards himself great
laminary, and thinks it 10 his mission to
shed light upon every question that
comes before the House. Unlike other
heavenly bodies, be never allows en-
eclipse. He "rises with the regularity
of sun and, what must be quite an
loying to his associates, he seldom
"ssts." constitutional law is Mr..
Rogers forte. Upon his experience and
proficiency in this department Of legal
lore he bases his right to be regarded as
q great Coppeshead leader, and his
claim, so far SIS We can ascertain, is
conceded BY bis party.
We have been aware for sometime
that one of the first requisites of q
constitutional Democrat" was utter
ignorance of the Constitution. As @
rule, those who gabbls loudest on the
stree. corners about Constitutional
rights and obiigstions are most igno-
rant Of the Constitution and the laws
made In pursuance Of its provisions.
But We hardly anticipated that Con-
gressman--a Constitutional light--would
expose his ignorance to the extent Mr..
Rogers did the other day in the
House.
We copy portion of the proceedings
in order that the readers of the JoUREA1
may see what constitutes Constitu
tional Democrat"

teeing safety to citizens coming up,
Mr. Randall, of Penn, Dem. stated
his objections to the proposed amend

this ought not to be submitted to thu
