The Issue to be Met.
From the y. Y. Tribune.

\ political struggle, rarely surpassed in
Importance or intensity, has been p;ecipi.
fated on the country by the treachery Of
Andrew Johnson. and some of hi. otiicia
or personal adherents, to the great and
patriotic party by which they were in
trusted with power. The aim of this
treachery Is to put the steadtast loyali.t.
OF the South under the feet of the '!wlp-
ped but not sublued'' rebels, and to ena-
bic The latter to glut their vengeance on
the 1ormer, whom they hate and curse a.
responsible for the most unexpected over
throw OF their darling ''contederacy"
( The recent wholesale maSsacres at
Memphis and New Orleans were bot con-
Splcuous manifestations of the spirit now
rampant III the South, whereof the pro-
rebel triumph in Kentucky is a more re-
cent example. The soldiers of Lee. Beau
regard, johnston and Hood. are now tie
dominant power from the Potomac to the
Rio Grande; they elect each other to Of
flee in preference even to slayine at home
rebels they have supplanted nearly ;Il
others as policemen Of Southern elite, :
they are organized and oilicered as state
militia and they ruthless!y crush every
demonstration Of loyal whites or loyal
blacks in assertion of the equal rights of
American trtcmen. The school houses oi
the blacks are burned and their white
teachers subjected 10 violence and outrage
by unchanged rebels, who relieve tie
work OF murder and arson by cheers for
Andy Johnson and execrations of con-
rrr>s
The purpose Of forcing representatives
Il the rebel states into congress. in def
ance of the loyal oath, by presidential fiat
and military power. is openly avowcd.
with threats that those who resist it shall
be treated as rebels, and Il civil war thu.
kindIed throughout the north and west.
II has thu, become imperative that

tOr the II ght OF the Mon 10 cxi-: and ol

to strengthen the hands Of congress for
the inevitable contest before us. We
must convince the South and the conner
heads thai revolution, 90 not backward ::
that emancipation is an interchangeable
fact that the glorious civil rights act can
never be repealed that the RIGHTS Of the
llnmDIe>t American are hcncetorth quar-
antced alrl shielded by the federal con>ti-
tuition, and must be maintained against all
