Reconsideration,

The New York Times (Repubican) says
'the age of bastilcs and guilotincs has
passed, but there is a dcspotism in Congress
as infatuated as that which caused France
TO weep tears Of blood The majority Of
the House Of Representatives has invested
n Committee of Fliteen with powers which,
under the guidance of Jacobin chairman,
is becoming as odious as any trumvirate
created by despotism."
The Times alluded to what is called the
DEMONSTRATION Committee" which Is now
daily at work in simply the destruction of
all our old Constitutional features of Gov
ernment; and, rs far as In them lies, chang
ing the Republic into one of the meanest
and most tyrannical dcspotisms In the civ
ilizcd world.
We have the consolation, however, in the
trust that these "Guy Fawkos" who are
plotting to blow up the Temple Of Liberty,
will be frustrated In their Internal work, by
the inhexible courage Of the President
who, like another indomtabe Andrep,
swcars "by the Eternal, the Constitution
shall be presorycd?"

MACK" writes 10 the Cincinnati Conn

nounce him rs In league with traitors, to
sell the Government Into the hands of reb-
els, &c. think IT, ill-becomcs persons OF
their intOlornnt spirit to complain on that
score, when II Is well known that no man
can be confirmed for Office by the Senate
who does not believe that Charles Sumner

AIRY on earth, and that the Reconstruction
Committee Is nm inEalllble body In direct

Themselves. They talked. year ago, about
giving the positions of doorkecpers, mes
scngers. &C. about n hundred In all, TO re-
turned soldiers; but they meant buncombe

turned soldier employed In any capacity

of filling.

"LnynItY."

A great deal has been said about "loyalty"
by our opponents, and the term has been 80
wrongfulIy applied and misunderstood,
that we are glad TO find In President JoHN-
soS's late speech a true exposition Of IL.
President Johnson says:
81 repeat am for the Union; am for
preserving all the States, ! am for ndmt-
ting Into the counscls OF the nation all their
representatives who are unmistdkabiy and
unquesttgnaJb loyal, A man who acknowl-
edges allegiance to the Government, and
toh0 sioeafs 10 support the Constitution, must
necessarily DO loyal. A man can not take
that oath In good faith unless he Is loyal"
This Is sound doctrine. Tho words of
the President have the right ring, Better
days are dawnIn2. when men In high places
80 closely cling TO the Constitution. The
President clearly and fully defines what
"loyalty" Is In this Union.

CnndItlon of Nnnthern Snmho.

a Washington special 10 the Cincinnati
Commercial, ON Wednesday, makes the fol-
lowing report Of anAirs on the Sea Islands
"Adyloes have been received at the
Frccdmcn's Bureau from Georgia IN which
the condition ofthe freed people occupying
the Sea Islands is reported. st. Gather
ines Island there were six hundred freed
men, two hundred of whom were formerly
the slaves of the owners OF the Islands, all
In n destitute condition. Since May, 1865,
the island has been under the control of
Mr.. Campbell, a eolored preacher from New
York, who has uudor him some ten or
fifteen colored agents OF the most crafty
character. who cut the wood of the island
aud sell It, aud employ the freedmen and
pay them In liquor at most exorbitant
prices. Mr.. Campbell has distributed ali
the land on the Island, n large portion of
which has fallen into the possession of him
self his sons, and Immediate friends. The
Assistant Commissioner applied himself TO
remedy these evils, aud has mt length done
so TO the satisfaction of all parties con-
ccrned.'
This is, unqucstionably, the truth-it Is
related officially. The "colorcd preacher,
from New York." is a close follower in the
ways Of his white brethren, the Beast Bur-
LrR, BANKS, and the thousand other scoun-
drcls, who went TO the war for It's plumber.
How uicc thing he had made of his dis
position of those mines of wealth, the con
lscatcd Sea lslands--all divided among
himseH his sons, ami Immediate .jrieHds."
What nice gang of freedmen hands they
had, too, 20 run their cotton plantations

whom were formerly slaves Of the owners
Of the islands. ALL IN DESTITUTE coNDI-

"RTauhOOd Suffrage"

says the Chicago Times:
It X very singular that this Manhood
Suffrage should only mean Southern dar-
keys. Manhood Suffrage does not refer to
the colored people of New York II has no
application to our African brethren in Mas
sachu 1etts; II is without significance TO the
"hcroic cOlored veterans" of Connecticut; /;
IL has no meaning for the American citl-
Z"ns Of African descent living In Illinois,
ohio, Indiana, or any other Northern State.
In all these States there are many negroes,
and these negroes are vastly superior TO
the plantation negroes of the Southern
states But Manhood Suffrage bears only
upon the lattcr-upon the ignorant lately
cmancipated, and altogether half-civilized
negroes of the late slave States.
Siugulnrly enough, Manhood, Suffrage
doe, not mean any thing TO the many thou
sands Of Chinese on the Pacific coast; nor
does It possess any reference TO the tens OF
thnusaads of Indians on our western bor-
dOrs. Why IL this thusP IA the Snowman
would say. Why does that vast compre-
henslye, suggestive, transceDdental eX-
preston Manhood Suffrage refer only 20
freedmenY Is there Manhood only In u
Niger who has had u master, and who Is
~ ignOrcnt ~ post and h there no Man
hood IN negro who never had a master
and who possesses n moderate amount Of
lntelllgenceY Is there not as much Man
hood IN pigtail as In braided woolp
The entire absence, from the New York
Tribune aud Its followers, of any effort 10
secure suffrage for all men, Is sufficient
evidence that Manhood Suffrage Is simply
capitalized clap-trap 10 catch votes. IL
Greeley was sincere In his pretended desire
to make "manhood' the base of political
rights. he would not limit his arguments TO
the lately emancipated barbnrians Of the
South. There Is quite as much manhood In
u Chinaman as there Is In a freed negro,
aud u good deal more In an Indian than in
either. Aud yet who ever heard the
Cheevors Garrisons, Greeleys, Summers
aud phllipsos say a word In favor of suf-
frage for anything except Southern ne

Henry Ward Beecher and tho Trial
of MT. DaYiA.

A correspondent OF a Southern paper,
who Is travelling North, fell In with IIEsRY
WARD BEEonER on railroad trails 10
Washington. lie thus narrates his conyer-
satlOn:
"In conversation with us he avowed him
enough, he thought had now been split,
and he was for mercy, forgiveness and for
bearance. lle admitted that Ills former Vi
olent Views had become modified, and he
now cordially lndorses the Union policy OF
the Presldent. lie alluded TO the case of
Mr.. Davis. and expressed the hope that he
would be tried. II at all, by civil tribunal,
and, II convicted, pardonod. Ho contended
that the power Of Mr.. Davis for mischief
was forever gone, aud that no good could
result from his execution"

Mr. SrURsE states that the desire to possess

that the United States Land Bonds would
