A RELIGIOUS VIEW, NOT BY HENRY
WARD BEEcHER.-Rev. Dr.. Baldwin, of
Troy, in the course Of his morning SER
mon last Sunday, incidentally met and
answered with few pointed words the
sophisms of Mr.. Beecher's letter. Speak
ing of the relations between religion and
politics. he said;
This religion does not make man a
member of the Democratic party or a
member of the Republican party, neces-
sarily. 1t does not bind him arbitrarily
to support one class Of partisans, or to
assail another. But it does command
and control him with a law which Is
above all other considerations-the law
of right, the law of justice. 1t says to
him, "LOok here is your platform and
your creed, Whatsoever ye would that
men should do unto you, do ye even so
unto them" And if there is a poor
freedman who was born into condition
of slavery, aud kept during the years of
his life in a state of ignorance and bond
age-if he has been emancipated, and is
struggling now to attain the dignity and
the right of citiZenship-if, while he is
thus struggling, and influences are gath
ering around him to keep him down and
Cypress him, and make him still slave
then the voice of Religion comes with
a clarion tone to every Christian man,
and informs him of his duty: place
yourself in his case; suppose that you
were suffering under his wrongs.
Assume that he held in his hands the
power which you now have the ability
TO exercise. And, looking at the matter
from this standpoint, do for him what
ever you would have him do FOR you if
the situations were reversed--if you
were the freedmen and he the voter
Think speak act, vote, as you would
have him do were your skin black and
his white" This is the one infallible
test-the test Of Right. Parties may
change, expediencies may change; but
the Right never changes. And however
dark or dangerous may seem the por-
tents OF the hour the ultimate triumph
of Right is certain-fOr it is an express
sion of the immutable will of God, who
sits supreme above parties and above
Presidents; of God, to whom nations and
races are but instruments, and ages the
| indexes in the unfolding of his plans.

This inequality was the result OF the
constitutions making five slaves, (not
voters) count as much for the South as
three white voters OF the North for US.
Vow the rebellion has resulted in the
abolition of slavery, and in al increase,
unless the constitution be amended of
the power Of the Southern whites As
the matter now stands the Southern ne
croes will count, man for man, (though
not vOter,l with the white voters Of the
South, in the appointment of repre-
sentatives to Congressman three fifths
of the negroes as heretofore, out the
whole FIVE ftths. Figuring upon the ba-
sis OF the census Of 1860, this will add
to the Southern States named eight Con.
gressmen: and thus sir hundred thousand
white voters at the South will have the
power of choosing toyty.ame representa-
tives in Congress, while over mRie0n
voters at the North will have but forty
one representatives. In other words the
political power of Southern white ve-
ter will be more than double that of
Northern white voter, and the Southern
whites will thus actually be rewordea for
their bloody treason by an increase of
power in the government of the cOun-
try.
The amendment proposed by Congress
to the constitution provides that the
Southern negroes shall not be counted
in apportioning Congressman to the
South, unless they are allowed to vote.
Its effect is to put a Southern ro.er on an
exact equality with a Northern voter.
In other words, as the Albany Evening
Journal tersely puts it, "a loyal man is as
good as rebel" is the platform OF the
Union party "a rebel is as good as two
loyal men," is the slogan of the Phila-
delphia Confederates with Johnson at
Their head.
As soon as Tennessee ratified the Con.
gressional amendments to the constitu.
ton, her Representatives were immedi,
ateiy admitted into Congress. And SC
will 1t be with all other States. AnC
yet, because Congress demands thi:
measure of justice, because it demands
that "a loyal man shall be as good a.
a rebsl"-nothing mors-the Presiden
of the United States is perambulatin:
about the country dsnouncing it as hos
tile TO the Union and body of trai
tors!"

KENTUCKY. - The Louisville ky
Courier says in proof Of the fitness Of
candidate for office, that it is only me
cessary to say that during the entire
war he was member Of Mosby's famous
Confederate cavalry in Virginia" This
is by no means singular case-that the
having been an active rebel is given, in
the Southern States, as reason why
man should be putin office. The Louis
vile Journal which supports the pres
ent policy of President Johnson, cannot
quite stomach such an outrageous way
of showing fitness for restoration to full
political power without some guaranty
of loyal conduct for the future 1t says
Many, no doubt, must find it difficult
to realize that the time has come, and now
is. when electioneerers for office think
1t to their advantage to show that in the
war they went into the rebel service and
fought against their country. But alas |!
! so 1t is.
Surely there is nothing in all human
| history like the present condition OF
political affairs among Us. Never before
! was there case where men rebelled
against their government, strove to sub
vert and shatter it, failed in their efforts,
laid down their arms, threw themselves
upon the mercy of their conqueror,
swore oaths of submission and ale
glance, obtained gracious and magnani-
nous pardon, and then had the efront-
cry to assume that their reasonable &C
ton against the government was good
ground upon which to expect and to de-
mand the right to control it and to seize
its honors and emoluments.

also accuses Congress OF disposition to

Congress represents that portion of our
people who fought through the long
and bloody war against traitors to pre-
geat dissolution from being a practical
fact. Having conquered the traitors, 1t
asks Of them a compliance with certain
easy and just terms before restoring them
to full participation with loyal men in
the control OF the government. These
terms are embraced in amendments to
the constitution; and their object IS to
place the different sections OF the country
on just equality in the matter of repre-
sentation, and 10 prevent, so far as posi-
bic, the recurrence of rebellion and war
1t is only necessary to examine the
subject of representation in Congress, tc

OUR MINISTER AT FRANKFORT.-By the
subioined paragraph, which we find in

American eagle has tapped his wings at

the Prussian occupation of Frankfort.

the Diet, was informed by General de

A Doc STORY FROM ILLINols.-Some
time ago, gentleman removed with his
family from this county to Californis,
across the plains, and was accompanied
by dog that had been given him by a
neighbor shortly before he started. In
due time the man reached the land of
gold, and settled down in one of the
beautiful valleys Of that country. The
dog was not satisfied with his new
home. He was lonely, and often longed,
if we are permitted to read canine
thoughts, to return to the land OF his
puppyhood. One morning his master
missed him, and never saw him again.
Recently, however, he walked into his
former masters yard, in this county,
foot-sore and weary, having crossed the
plains from California here. The hair
was nearly all gone from his hide, and

IMPORTANT SUIT AGAINST SECRETARY
SrASTos.-The Washington correspond
ent of the New York Herald says that
Secretary Stanton is retained In office
until suit brought against him by W.
7. Smithson, the Washington banker,
shall be tried, at the September term of
the Supreme Court of the district. The
case involves the question of the consti-
nationality of the act of Congress in
Identifying certain officers of the gov
eminent for acts done in their Official
capacity for the suppression of the rebel
lion. This law will be Mr. Stanton's
reliance in the defense. His case will be
managed by Attorney General Stanbury
and J. W. Fendall of Washington. The
case, as set forth on the side of Dir.
Smithson, is as follows.
Early in the summer OF 1868, VIM.
Il. smithson, banker of Washington,
was arrested by order of the war depart
nent, charged with being in correspond
ence with the enemy and dealing in con-
federate currency. He was thrown into
the old capitol prison, his family elected
from his house, his furniture carried
away and appropriated by the police
officers of the war department, and
other indignities offered to himself, his
family and his property. Subsequently
Mr.. Smithson was tried before military
commission in Baltimore, convicted and
sentenced to ten years Imprisonment in
the penitentiary at Albany, n. Y. After
serving out about year Of his term in
the pententiary, he was pardoned by
President Lincoln, and set at liberty.
He has now instituted proceedings
against Mr.. Stanton, as stated above, for
damages because of these alleged irreg-
ular and unlawful proceedings, laying
his damages at $4,000"
