Quite a novel case was before the
Nashville City Court recently, Will
liam A. Johnson, a white man, who
was fresh arrival from the Buck Eye
State, was arrested together with one
Josephine McCodnicO, coal black ne
gro woman, for having committed
matrimony in violation of the statute
law Of Tennessee. The marriage Ii
cense was issued by the clerk on John
sons application, supposing that said
Josephine was white woman They
were married by the Rev. Nelson
Merry, freedman, who is also Bap-
list minister The Nashville Banner
referring to it, says;
The case was called up by the Mar
shall, and the mated doves arranged
themselves in front of the bench-the
dusky bride in sun bonnet and calico,
and her ''lord of the lion heart and
eagle eye" clad in dirty LINEN dus-
ter. To the question of the court if
he was married to the negro woman,
the $50 called white man replied that
he was. He was from Ohio; he did
not know it was against the law; he
did not say to the clerk when apply
ing for the license that he was going
to marry negro; his courtship was
so very brief that it amounted to no
courtship at all And by this, his own
confession, it will be seen that he rush
ed into 1.-The bridal moose and prac-
tically embraced the miscegenation
faith with the moral but reckless hero
ism of martyr.
The Court fined them fifty dollars
each, in default of which they were
committed to the work house. The
Rev. Nelson Merry is subject under the
State laws to a penalty of five hun
dred dollars. He was arrested, taken
before a magistrate and held to bail
in the sum of one thousand dollars.

There seems to be trouble in the
Radical camp on the proper course for
the faithful to adopt in reference'to the
amendment Gov. Curtin, of Pennsyl
vania, addressed circular to the Gov
errors Of the Northern States, urging
the calling of extra sessions of the
Legislatures to ratify at once the
amendment But so far the desired
result has not been obtained The
Governor of Maryland refuses to con
vene the Legislature of that State,
New York does not seem disposed to
come to the rescue, and in the West
the movement meets with considera-
bic opposition. The Radical papers,
like the Radical Governors, are diyi-
ded, and quite a number prefer to
postpone the matter until the election
of members to the next Legislatures
of the different States The Chicago
Republican opposes the policy of
pressing the amendment in the Legis-
latures at present, and says: :
The Republican party will enter the
campaign this fall upon the issue of rati-
flying that amendment Upon that
issue will turn the election Of Legisla-
lures, State officers, and Congressman.
That is the plain and direct question
upon which the people are to vote
To call the several
Legislatures in extra session to ratify
that amendment is, in point of time,
merely to anticipate the results of the
elections by few months, and it will
take from those elections the square
and direct issue upon which the Re
publican party viii most cordially be
united, and in support of which they
Will turn out in all their strength. To
call the Legislatures together now is
to give pretext for the charge that the
Republicans are afraid to trust the peo-
pie, and, therefore, must resort to
what, in legal sharp paactice, is called
a snap judgment.
An amendment of the Constitution
which cannot command the approval
Of the people ought not to be adopted
by any shorthand process, no matter
how much that process may be in strict
accordance with the letter of the law :;
and ratification by Legislatures elect
ed expressly on that issue carries with
it a weight which a ratification under
our- other oi,.n,rro-+oncac CON DovoY.
possess. The Republican party in
Illinois are about to meet in conven-
ton. They will accept the amend
ment as proposed by Congress, and
upon that sole issue viii go before the
people, confident of success. To con-
vene the Legislature now to ratify that
amendment would be to deprive the
party in this State Of all the advantages
of that issue, and take from the con
test that enthusiasm and interest which
otherwise will be universal.
The amendment may now be cOnsid-
cred the party platform of the Radi-
Gals, and whether adopted or not they
hope to carry the fall elections for Con
gress on that question The whole
number of States is thirty six: twenty
seven win therefore be required to
make the amendment part of the Con-
stitution. Besides New Jersey, Della
ware, and Kentucky, there. are ten
Southern States that will certainly vote
to defeat it. If the Southern States
remain firm the amendment cannot be
adopted
