The LOUISIANA CONSTITUTIONAL Con
vENTIoN.-The New York Sun, an adj.
ministration paper, speaking of the pro.
posed reconvocation of the Louisiana
Convention, says:
eve desire to see the Convention as.
semble simply to demonstrate the point
that Union men may meet together in
New Orleans without being mobbed and
massacred. And further, we would
like to see that Convention protected,
even though it should take the whole
army of the Southwest to do it,"
As the administration was responsible
for the first outrage on the Convention,
and the President subsequently defended
the rioters in speech at st. Louis, it is
too much to expect that Mr.. Johnson
will now follow the sensible and iudic-
ious advice of even his own party or
gans.

THE RoTHscHILDs SUIT TO RECOVER
ToBACoo.-In the Hastings Court at
Richmond recently, the suit brought by
the Rothschilds to recover possession of a
large amount Of tobacco seized by ]. S.
Loomis, Treasury Agent, as Confederate
property under the act of Congress re-
lating to captured and abandoned prop
erty, was called. The present is an ac-
ton brought against the warehouse
keepers, but the United States steps in
and defends the suit in the name of the
Government. The Hon. S. II. Chandler
and Judge Ames appeared for the United
States, and Messrs. 0uld and Crump for
the other side. The Rothschilds first ap.
piled to the Secretary Of State for the
release of this tobacco; but he decided

ENGLISH POLICY RESPECTING HANGING.
The policy of England, for the last
forty five years, has been not to inflict
the punishment of death for the simply
political offence OF high treason. Robert
Emmett, who suffered in 1903, was the
last person hanged as traitor in Ireland.
In England, ThistleWood and four others
were executed in May, 1921, convicted
of having framed the Cato street con-
spiracy, whose object was to assassinate
the fifteen Cabinet Ministers and over
throw the government. Since then, no
execution for high treason has taken
place In the British Islands. Neither
has the British government been fond,
during the last hundred gears at least,
Of sending clergymen to the gallOws. 1t
is quite true that Rev. William Dodd,
D. D., Protestant clergyman and very
popular preacher, was hanged at Tyburn,
in June 1777, but he had committed a
heavy forgery which was considered a
very heinous offence in great CONNER
cial city. In the year 1856, Rev. Nicho,
las Sherry was hanged in Clonmel, as a
suspected "rebel," on charge Of MUIR
der, and it was subsequently made clear
he was innocent; since then, no clergy
men of any persuasion has been execu-
ted in Ireland. In 1889, one James
frey, alias 0'Coigley, Catholic clergy
man, Gin whose company the late Alder
man John Binns, of Philadelphia, was
also arrested was convicted of high
treason at Maidstone, and hanged. He
was the last clergyman who suffered
that death in England. The recent exc
cution of the Rev. Mr.. Gordon in Jamai-
ca, during an instruction, was held to
be so contrary to the now established
forbearance of English jurisprudence,
that Governor Eyre, who ordered it, is
about being tried for murder. 1t may
be confidently assumed that, under Eng
lish law, even when administered in a
colony, the British Government will not
offend the Catholic subjects of Queen
Victoria, by putting the Rev. Mr.. Nc
Mahon, or any other Catholic priest, to
death, on the gallows, for political
offence. In his case, however, as in that
of Mr.. Lynch, the verdict of "Not Pro-
ven" might have been safely entered

DRIVEN TO DEsrERATIog.-The Boston
Voice says Benedict who has taken a
wife recently, was driven to the extreme
measure by the treatment he received in
a boarding house where he was sick re-
Gently. He said he ordered the servants
to bring some cruel on Monday morn
ing, but which be never got till Wednes-
day afternoon. During his confinement
not single soul visited him save the
young gentleman who cleaned the
knives; he came not for the purpose OF
consolation, but to inform that "Missus
would be much obliged if Mr.. ---
would do his shaking ON chair, so as
not to get the bedstead apart" This
was the feather that broke the back OF
his dictatorship. From that moment
he resolved to connect his fortunes with
piece of dimity.

REBEL OUTRAGE,-Asa specimen OF the
reconstructed loyalty Of the South, a
dispatch from Nashville, states that the
Pennsylvania Freedmen's Relief Assoct'
alton completed their school house at
Stevenson, Alabama, on last Saturday
week, and would have commenced their
colored school on the following Monday,
but on that morning some incendiary
burned it to the ground. This is of a
piece with the destruction of negro
school houses at Memphis and other
places, and shows that the rebel spirit is
the same all over the South. It also de-
monstrates the fear that the whipped
and subjugated chivalry have lest their
late slaves shall surpass them in intelli-
gence, as they certainly bid fair to do,
and will, if educational advantages are
afforded them.

Strange stories continue to circulate

Nevertheless, His Majesty is not exactly
well, and he takes great pains to conceal
the fact. His case would probably be
best described by saying that he falls

ways the same. Sometimes it is rheu-

"Under no circumstances would vote
for q man who, in time of war, had
sympathized with the enemies of his
Government, and rejotced at every de-
feat which you and l and other loyal
soldiers suffered while every victory we
won was source of regret, rather than
a cause for rejoicing.

Constitutional Amendment as being a
palpable and fragrant violation of the
Constitution, and whose adoption would
be considered fatal to the existence of
the Union. We, the victors of the late
war; have a complete and undeniable
right to name the terms upon which
peace shall be established and the Union
restored.

tarily engaged in the late rebellion
against the Government justly, and in
accordance with the expressed terms of
the Constitution, forfeited every right
held under the Government, including
the right to live, hold property, &c.

losses of battle and disease, voted us

umns, and whose sympathies were in
unison with ours from the beginning to

ILLINOIS FENIANs ON THE PRESIDENT
A meeting of the various Feuian circles
of Springfield, Ill.,, was recently held in
that city, to take action in reference to
the course to be pursued toward effect
ing the release of their condemned breth-
rem in Canada, and at the close Of the
meeting the following significant resolu-
tions were adopted:
Resolved, That it is our honest Convic-
ton that the course and action Of An
drew johnson towards the Fenians in
this country has brought about this re-
suit, and that if these men and other
patriotic Irishmen suffer death from
British tyranny, we hold him response
bic for the same.
Resolyed, That having full confidence
in Congress, the law making power OF
this government, and believing that they
have sympathy for any people struggling
for liberty, we trust that at their next
meeting they will express to the world
their adherence of such murderous
proceeding, particularly as the British
people have been extremely urgent that
lenity should be shown by this govern
ment to Southern traitors, who were
not fighting for liberty of country.
