The Congressional amend

citizenship. The Congressional amend
yment declares the same persons who are
hhus disfranchised, to be citizens of the
State in which they reside. Our Rad
icals have attempted to deprive these
persons forever of the right to vote
Congress, in adopting the amendment
have refused in the most pointed manner
to deprive them of that right Tor even
four usars. Our radicals deny to sucn
persons the right to earn hvehnooa oy
the practice of the law. Congress ai'ei
declaring them citizens, say thai no
state shall pass or enforce any laws
abridging their privileges or immunisies'
Our Radicals will not permit them to sue
in onr courts to enforce any right or re-
dress any wrong, Congress say that no
state shall deny to any person within its
jurisdiction the equal protection of the
laws Our Radicals, in short would de-
nrive these men of life, liberty and prop
erty without regard to law; while Con-
gress propose to make it a part Oh 'n0
fundamental law Of the land, tbaV 10
State shall deprive any person OF lite' lio,
erty or property without due process Oh
law; that is a regular trial and the ludg-
ment of a court, subject to an appeal TO
the proper appellate tribunal.
The chief object in proposing this
amendment to the constitution OF the
United States was, no doubt, as our
neighbors have said, to strengthen the
Republican party in the Fall elections
But how are our Republicans in West
Virginia to mount this platform Are
they to eat up their own words, and re-
pudiate their own measures, In order to
put themselves upon the platform man
ufactured for them at Washington City !?
After passing the amendment to our
State constitution, the gag-law, test
oaths, registration act, &c, are they to
inscribe upon their banners for the Fall
canvass, that every person born in the
United States or paturalized therein,
shall be citizen of this State, if he re-.
sides in it, or that no State shall
pass OF enforce any law to abridge the
privilege or immunities of any such cit
izen, or deny to any person the equal pro-
lection of the laws. 1t will look singu-
lar, to say the least of it, to see them
putting themselves forward as the
special patrons and advocates of such
principles, Or, will they manfully stick
to what they have themselves done, in
sist that it was all right, and denOunce
the Congressional majority as lite bet,
ter than a set of copperheads and rebels?
Let them take which course they will,
no fair man will have any confidence in
them for the future, and no one who de-
sires the good government and prosper
ity of the State, will want them to re-
main in power,
