The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1866-03-27

During the coming campaign each party
should fight under its distinct colors. We
are ready to have the record OF our leader
examined and criticized; but in such an
examination we want no inuendoes. Let us
have the truth, and il any faults be found,
their force will be augmented by openly hurl-
ing them at us. II no spot is discerned, then
let us not have dubious utterances, which
infer much but state nothing. Lay aside
all the marks and devices which may tend TO
hide the truth, and let the people fairly
decide whether unrepentant Rebels shall
make our laws, or whether loyal legislation
shall not thoroughly purge all treason before
the participants in secession shall be forgiven.

THE ANTICIPATED VETo.- rhe impress
sion seems to be universal that Mr.. JOHNSON
will veto the Civil Rights bill. The time
allowed for him to do so by law is now rapidly
passing. At p. M. on Wednesday the ten
days will have elapsed. We may therefore
expect to hear from him to-day, and certainly
tomorrow. All the leading journals OF our
country concur in expressing the belief that
he will return it without his signature. The
New Y ork Tribune endorses the statement
of the InteHigencer, the semi-official organ,
hat the veto viii not be sent to the Senate
before Wednesday, as the President claims
the right to deduct Sunday. The Herald
says:-
THE veto message will be sent to the Senate,
and will undoubtedly be received there to-,
morrow. This iact accounts tor the activity OF
the radicals and the renewal OF the effort 60 get
STOCKTON out OF the Senate before the vote is
Ialen on the veto. With STOCKTON DISQUALIFIED
from voting, and Senator DIXoNs absence from
sickness, the conservative strength is made two
less With this they hope to pass the bill over
the veto. This IS the sequel of the movement
III the Senate to-day, and explains why Senator
MORRILL, violated his pledge of pairing off when
the vote on the report of the committee was
taken.r
The New York Times says:-
at had been almost universally believed up
TO this evening that Mr JOHNsoN's message was
prepared and would be sent TO the Senate before
it, adjournment, and, in consequence, a stream
OF the curious continued 10 pass into and out OF
the Capitol this atterno IN, making inquiries
ABOUT the veto message. a. by common parance
the ant Cipated communication is called. There
are dozens OF rumOTs about the Presidents
intended course in this matter, none OF them, OF
course, having any foundation, for no one but
the President himself knows positively what he
hold The b,ll un0er consideration until tomorrow
afternoon, and probably until the next day.
The World says:-
"J'he impression that the Civil Rights bill
would be returned to the Senate to-day with a
veto was not verified by the fact, and 1t is now
well known that not until yesterday was the
President earnestly engaged in its consideration.
IL is turther ntimated, upon well-grounded as
surances OF truth, that it will receive it's first
Cabinet discussion tomorrow. The President
Will not be so dscourteous to his constitutional
advisors as to send veto message to Congress
without having first given notice in Cabinet
meeting that such is bis intention. review of
his determination toInorrow win not prevent
the message nom being sent to the Senate at
that time"
The New York NepS says:-
mo apprehension need be felt about the veto
OF the Civil Rights bill. The veto message is
written, and will be sent TO the Senate either
long. 1t treats of the most i'm portant primtives
of the Government ana Constitutional law, and
much time las been required in the preparation
OF a State paper OF such Importance. An at
tempt Will be made, OF course, to carry the
bill over the veto; but no we'll informed person
believes that this can be done. The Senate will
certainly sustain the Velo.n
From this universally of sentiment, we sup
pose that we must consider the veto as an
established fact, and that on tomorrow, at
latest, the Senate will receive the bill with
out the Executive signature.
