A Correction.

The Burlington Sentinel, in noticing some
comments in las; weeks FREEMAN on the
Presidents position, says:
ave have no comments to make upon such
language. 1t is not necessary. People can
form their own opinions by reading il. We
will remark, however, that the FREEMAN was
OF the number that were not satisfied with the
Democracy's being loyal to the Government
during the late rebellion, but stigmatized them
with the titles of rebel and 'copperhead be
they did not endorse all the acts OF the
Lincoln Administration. Our country'-
meaning the President-'right or wrong was
their cry. The political scales have altered
some what, since then, md with them the poll
cy OF these disunionists
The Sentinel is not accurate - usual in
the above paragraph. The FREEMAN never
characterized persons as rebel or "copper"
head" because they "did not endorse all the
acts Of The Lincoln Administration" In fac,
the FREEMAN criticized, and sometimes quite
sharply, many acts OF the "Li1coln Admins
traton." We frequently combttted the doc
trine that the President was he Government,
nor wise, nor expedient. II we "siigmauzed
the Democracy il was because they, by their
course, and by their open sympathies, gave aid
and CONT, ri to treason and We criticize and
now, because their present conduct gives com
fort only 10 those who for i've year. strove to
overthrow the COVER men.

The Burlington Free FreSs prints the iolloW-
ing extract fir )m private letter:
81 have often had the pleasure of hearing
Hon. J. S. Morrill, speak in Congress, and have
always been struck with the marked attention
which is paid to his words. Whether he is
making "a speech, explanations, or asking
questions of another member, he IS always lis
tened to as few Congressman are. Blaine,
Banks and Stevens are the only members who
can be placed in the same catalogue. MI
Morrill, is always courteous, quiet and modest,
and yet his influence is greater than any other
member except Thad Stevens He is by far
the most popular member in Congress, even
his opponents admire his quiet, unobtrusive de-
pertinent and firm stand in all things without
any offensive sarcasm"
The Brattleboro Phenir, speaking of the
abuse poured out upon MIR. Morrill,, for his per-
sistent advocacy of tariff, says:
"Mr Morrill, can stand the abuse OF such
class of papers. 1t will do him no harm either
in Vermont or anywhere else. He is TOO we'll
known, too highly appreciated In the country
by the masses Of intelligent and loyal people to
be dist rbed or injured by politicians presses
that have sympathized with, or aided and given
comfort to, rebels and their allies The Rep
resentatve of the I'd District has won repu-
tation which but few have attained. tie has
labored long, diligently, aiihtully, successfully,
in the service of his country. He has identl-
fed himself with the masses OF the people,
earnestly worked to promote their interests.
The farmers, the mechanics, the laboring
classes generally, the whole country, owe much
TO lis efforts in devising and carrying through
measures OF great importance. The tariff, the
agricultural colleges, identified with him.
The people of Vermont know his worth
statesman, tn Y understand his interest in
cry thing calculated to promote their weifar~,
anu no abuse of him from any quarter will
lessen the respect for, and confidence in IA
vorite Representative. Such too is his private
character, his pure and unsullled life, above the
slightest suspicion OF anything d shonorabe to
Chr gentleman. that tie abuse Of the
New York WoFld, and papers like it, Is h4rm-
less to him, disgrace ul to them. His long
perience in public affairs, his diIgent attention
TO the duties OF his station, his earnest deyo-
ton to the great principles Of justice, freedom
and humanity, have given him high and i'm
poriant position in the House of Representa-
tives, have ior him the sincere regards
and the highest respect Of the pc pie whom he
represents, aLd they viii never allow the abuse
Of anybody 10 prevent them from conterrins
on aim the honors which his faithful services
deserve.

President Johnson as He Was.

President Johnson says be is faithful to his
former principles and declarations. Senator
Trumb1l in MS speech on the veto exposed
this pretence 10 some particulars, and showed
nov the Presidents logic now was at war
with MS acts now, and with his views but re-
Gently to the subject matter of the Civil
Rights bill and the control of the federal
government over the questions of reconstruc-
Iion. The great departure which Mr.. John
son has made from the opinions he held less
than two years ago, may be Judged by looking
at the following extract of a speech made by
him IN Nashville 10 1864, accepting the nom-
nation of the Baltimore Convention as Vice
President on the ticket with Mr.. Lincoln. He
then said
Il say that traitors should take back seat
IN the work of restoration. If there be but
five thousand men in Tennessee loyal to the
constitution. loyal to freedmen, loyal to JUS
tice, these true and faithful men should control
the work OF reorganization and reformation
absolutely. l say that the traitor has ceased
to be citizen. and, in joining the rebellion,
has become public enemy. He forfeited his
right to vote with loyal men when be renounc-
ed his citizenship and sought to destroy our
government We say to the most honest and
industrious foreigner who comes from Eng
land or Germany to dwell among US, and to
add to the wealth of the country, Before you
can be q citizen you must stay here for five
years. If we are % cautious about foreigners

who voluntarily renounce their homes to i've
with u, what should We say to the traitor, who
although born and reared among Us, has raised
a parricidal hand against the government
which always protected him My judgmen,
is that he should be subject to severe ordea
before he is restored to citizenship. A fellow
who takes the oath merely to save bis properly
and denies the validity of his oath, is a per.
Jured man, and not to be trusted, Before
these repenting rebels can be trusted, let them
bring forth the fruits of repentance. He who
helped to make all these widows and orphans
who draped the streets of Nashville in mourn
ing, should suffer for his great crime.
Treason must be made odious, and traitors
must be punished and impoverished ,heir
great plantations must be seized, and divided
into farms, and sold to honest, industrious men
The day for protecting the lands and negroes
of these authors of rebellion is past. 1t j:
high time it was.''
Provisional Gov. johnson then added these
significant words-words which sound like
his own condemnat ion
81 have been most deeply panied at some
things which have come under my observation
We get men in command who, under the In
tiuence of tiattery, fawning and caressing, gran;
protection to the rich traitor, while the poor
Union man stands out 10 the cold, often unable
to get receipt or voucher for his losses. The
raitor get lucrative contr .cts, while the
loyal man is pushed aside, unable TO obtain 6
recognition"
Il was in this speech that Mr.. johnson gave
, his views of reconstruction, and the persons tc
VII m that work should be confded, in thi:
language:
"Bul in calling Convention to restore the
State, who shall restore and establish it ? Shall
he man who gave his influence and his means
to destroy th' Government Is he to p4riici
pate in the great work of reorganization
Shall be who brought this misery upon the
State be permitted to control its de5tnies ? Ii
this De so. then all this precious blood of our
brave soldiers and officers so freely poured out
will have been wantonly spilled
President Johnson, less than one year after
making this declaration, adopted plan of re-
construction which put every Southern State
in the hands of the men who gave their means
and their influence to destroy the government
and now he denounces Congress because it re-
fuses to accept his work as final and Just.
Yet Mr.. Johnson has the etfrontery TO say that
he has not changed

Passage Of the Civil Rights Bill.

Congress has at last shown resident John
son that i, is the law-makiug power, and not
only has the right, but the power to protect
men in their rights, in spite of the presidential
veto. Last Friday the Senate acted upon the
Civil Rights bill, and passed it by the following
vote:
Ysas-Messr~ Anthony, Brown. Chandler, Clark, Con-
ness Cragn. Cr-ssweIl, Edmunds, Fessenden. Foster
Lane Of Indiana Morgan Morrill,, Nye, Poland, Pome
Ramsey sherman, Sprague Stewart Sumner, Trum-
bull Wade, Wiley, Williams, Wilson and Yate--33.
Nags-Me-sr- Buckalew, Cowan, Davis, Dooiiftle,
Guthrie, Hendricks, Johnson, Lane OF Kansas, McDou-
gall Ne-nIti' Ncrton Riddle, salisbury, Van Wrinkle,
Ab,ent-Mr Dixon. vacant-one New Jersey chair.
Those elected as Republicans who voted
against the bill are Cowan, Doolittle, Lane Of
Kansas, Norton and Van Wrinkle. The House
acted upon the bill Monday, and passed it by a
vote OF l22 10 Al. 1t thus becomes law, not
outstanding the Presidents objections.
This Is a great triumph of right and Justice
Executive Influence and patronage proved too
weak 70 break the solid ranks of the friends OF
equal rights. No Republican could sustain the
President "ithout joining the Democratic party
IN its undemocratic cIamor that this is white
mans government and several who voted to
sustain the VETO of the Freedmen's Bureau bill.
parted company with MIR. ohnson and acted
with the great body of their former associates
Five recreant Republicans abandoned their
party ard their former principles, and for the
sake Of Presidential favors sold themselves and
became Mr.. Johnson's associates and instru-
ments, and will, undoubtedly, with him go bod
lily over to the Democratic ranks But the
party is solid md in fighting trim, and will be
all the stronger for the desertion of these mer-
cenary, dishonest and corrupt politicians.
1t Is said that President johnson will refuse
TO execute this law. Whether he does or not.
II Is nevertheless a law. Its efficiency does no,
depend entirely on the executive Courts can
administer It, and will be likely to whe Their Mr
Johnson wishes them to or not 1t is part OF
the statute law of the cOuntry, and will re-
main so until 1t j. repealed Democratic papers
and speakers may threaten to nulIify it, as Cal
noun proposed to nulify the tariff law, but Pres
Ident Johnson will be slow to lead the nulIifiers.
If ne attempts this he will find the people with
Congress and against him, with unanmity as
overwhelming as that which crushed the re-
bellion, which &c has Just declared at an cpd
