lHE testimony Of A. H. Stevens, Of Georgia,
before the Committee on Reconstruction, was an
argument in support Of the right Of Southern
States to rebel, and to continue in rebellion until
they were sick of it of the duty of Congress to
receive the states back into the Union and into
Congress without guarantees or conditions prece-
denti and of the nullity of all laws as to the late
rebel states, passed by Congress since the rebels
surrendered. As to the last point, out of great
grace he says he will submit to the decision of the
courts. Alex. Stevens is not reconstructed.

The great issue before the people is,
whether all the powers of Government
shall be concentrated in the hands Of the
General Government-the States being re-
duced to the condition of>counties-and a
consolidated despOtism be thereby estab-
Iished; or, whether those rights of local
selt-government which our fathers enjoy
ed and which we inherited from them, and
without which there can be no real liberty,
no wise government no, public. economy,
no light taxation, shall be preserved
A powerful faction, represented bya ma
jority id Congress, have conspired to over
throw the free and benefcent institutions
of our fathers and to substitute therefor an
Oligarchy of privileged classes, crushing
the mass of the people and all individual
liberty, under the weight of despotic and
unrestricted General Government. To eff
feet this object, they, in plain violation of
the Constitution, exclude eleven States
from representation in Congress, and insist
upon comforting upon negroes the right
to vote-not out Of regard to the negro,
but because they expect to be able,
with their money, to control his vote, and
thereby perpetuate their party ascendency.
Let every man who is opposed to the
schemes of the conspirators, who cherishes
the institutions founded by our fathers,
who appreciates the necessity and benefits
of local self government, who is opposed to
seeing the great State of Ohio shOrn of her
dignity and reduced to the dependent con-
dition of county, or who is opposed to
Negro Suffrage, join with the Democracy
in rescuing our country from the grasp of
the Malignants.

tral Committee of Ohio.

Grand Radical Scheme for the
Humiliation of the South and
the Abolition Of the Constitution
of tIle United States.

OF the u bn1te0 states.
''DRUID," who is famous as a correspond
ent, under date of the 18th inst. wrote the
following from Washington to the Ne0
York NelcS:
The Civil Rights bill, now before the
President, is part of the grand scheme of
the Radicals for the humiliation of the
Southern people. the abolition of the Con-
stitution of the United States, and the alb
rogation of all the State laws and stare
Constitutions of the Southern States. Its
unconstitutional features are so fragrant
and glaring, that the bill was denounced
even by Mr.. Bingham, Mr.. DelanO, and
other Republicans. Its design is to bring
about state OF absolute negro equality in
all the Southern States. To admit the ne
cessity of any such measure as this, is to
admit that the Constitution is not worth a
cent for all the protection it affords to the
rights of the citizen; and that for seventy
years the rights of the people of the United
States have never been secure.
The atrocious characterof this bill forced
even Republican Members of the House to
cry out against it, Mr. Bingham, of Ohio,
said: "What was proposed by the first di-
vision of the first section of the bill was
simply to strike down, by Congressional
enactment every State Constitution in the
land and every State statute that made a
discrimination on account of race or color.
There was scarcely State of the Union
that did not, by its Constitution or by
State law, make some distinction on account
of race or color between citizens of the
United States in regard to civil rights; and
this bill would subject the Governor Of
the State ofOhio to fine and dimprisonmentit II
he did not disobey the Constitution of that
State, which declares that no one should
be elected to Office (and therefore no one
should be commissioned to office) in that
State save white citizens of the United
States. The care of the life, liberty and
property of the citizen was in the State and
not in the Federal Government. The Con-
stitution of the United States never con-
ferred on Congress the power to protect
life by the terror of the penal code within
organized States, and Congress had never
attempted to do it. But this bill proposed
to reform the whole criminal code of every
State Government. What power had Con-
gress to do so?" ..s .rHt se
1t has not been many days since President
johnson denounced the Radicals tor their
attempts to revolutiOnize the Government
This bill is part of their plot to do so. Mr..
Delano and Mr.. Bingham both demonstrated
that the effect of the bill would be to revo-
lutionize the form of the Government in all
those particulars that relate to the rights of
the respective States, and the powers of the
State Governments. o"d's = .5ss ii-i
have already stated positively that the
President will veto the bill. The veto will
no doubt be sustained in the Senate by at

And the Wight stretches her silver wing

And kiss with this kiss my lovers mouth,
And tell him love as Of old.
