A Wise Move.

1t 10 stated that several distinguished Senators
have recently had an interview with the President
to ascertain whether they could not suggest some
measure as substitute for the vetoed civil rights
bill, that would be acceptable to the Executive
This, remarks the Indianapolis Journal, is sen.-
BILE proceeding, whatever success may attend it,
Had there been more freedom Of intercourse and
interchange of views, and less suspicion and bck-
eriug betweea Congress and she President, the
presen, unhappy condition of affairs ght probably
hayc been avoided.
In his Veto Message, the President said:
'.My lamcnted predecessor, in his proclamation
Of the LIST Of January, 1863, ordered that al per
sons held as slaves within certain States and parts
OF States therein designated, then and thencefor
ward should be free; and further. that tho execu
tivs Government OF the United States. including
the military and naval authorities thereof, would
recognize and m ,intain the freedom of such per-
sons This guarantee has been rendered especial
" obligatory and sacred BY the amendment of the
Constitution, abolishinS slavery throughout the
United States. | therefore fnly recognize the OBJ
legation to protect and defend that class Of people,
wherever and whenever il shall becom. necessa
ry and to the full extent compitible with Consti-
tuition of the United States Entertaining these
sentiments. il only remaius for me to say that
will cheerfully cooperate with Congress in any
MEASURE that may he necessary for the preserva-
ton of the civil rights of Freedmen, as well as
those of all other class:s of persons throughout
the Unite States, by Judicial process. under equal
and impartial laws, in conformity with the pro
visions of the Federal Constitution.
We have here, remarks the Journal in continu-
alton, the solemn declaration Of the Executive
that il is the duty OF the Government to protect
the freedmen in the hscrty guaranteed them by
the immortal proclamation Of Abraham Lincoln,
and the constitutional amendment, and that he
will cheerfully cooperate with Congress in any
measure for that purpose that docs not. In hi:
Judgment, conflict wish the Constitution. icon
gress does not pass the pending bill over the veto
as now seems doubtful, it should not abandon the
effort to the rights Of freedmen to the eman
cipa.ed slaves and if any bill for that object can
be agreed upon between the legislative and exec
utive departments, no question of etiquette. nor
any feeling Of disappointment for the past should
be suffered to stand in the way of such a consum-
nation.

Now. recognize the right of every man to get

submit whether any MN has the right to interfere
with the business of ether men This contempt

other Coppcrhcad lawyers. Oar Republican friend
might have advised his friend not to 20 to any 9th
