Madison, Ind, day or two ago, and
one OF them fractured the skull of the
other by blow with stone. Young

will make note of this 6 straw, and
have their heads ironclad before Slip

THURSDAY, AUGUsT %. 1866.

We stated in our last that the issue had at
length been fairly and finally joined between
the President and Congress. The President
stands upon and urges his policy, that the
States are entitled to representation without
further amendments to the Constitution
while the Congressional party, comprising
the great mass of the Republicans hold that
further amendments to the Constitution are
indispensable in order to place the recently
insurgent States on loyal basis, and to en-
sure quiet in the Union by excluding leading
participants in the rebellion from holding
office I'D
Both sides seem to hold that the pres
emit Congressional test-oath should be main
tanned The Philadelphia Convention,
whose proceedings the President has warmly
endorsed, demands that "loyaJ representa-
tives be admitted; and the President has
repeatedly declared that the States will be
entitled to representation when they shall
send members who can " comply with any
existing constitutional or legal test"
This, then, being the case, what remains
but for those members elect who cannot take
this oath to resign, and let their places be
filled by those who can comply" with the
illegal test 2" This would seem to be the
obviously proper course, especially after the
call, by the Philadelphia Convention, for the
admission of "loyal representatives"
For our part, our principles are not to be
changed or affected by the action of Conven-
tons, or by any cause that will not convince
US that those principles are erroneous. We
feel sure that We have undergone no change
since May, 1866. We thought then, and we
think now, that the Union should be restor-
ed only on an Enthusiastically" loyal basis.
that the President is merely co-worker
with the Congress in effecting this result;
and that, when the President had finished
his work, as he declares he has, it was for the
Congress to investigate it, to consider it, to
modify it, Or to accept it or not as that body
might choose. We have never understood
that the action of the President in this re-
spect concluded the Congress- or that that
body was bound to accept Internationally
the work of restoration as accomplished
and presented to them by him.
We feel sure that the President and the
Congress are both actuated by patriotic mo-
tives. We regret the breach between them.
This breach is most probably incurable. The
appeal now is to the people of the United
States who suppressed the rebellion 1t is
for them to say on what terms the govern
ment shall be restored. We expect to be
content with those terms. Our people will
be anxious and interested spectators of the
struggle now going on in the Northern and
Western States, but they are not in a condi-
ton to take much part in this struggle
They can only look on and hope that the re-
suit may be best for the whole country. Our
sympathies are with those who are most de-
voted to the Union, and who are determined
to restore it on a loyal basis, without the die
tation of Northern copperheads or Southern
traitors.

The Marlborough Southerner and one of its
rebel, ribald correspondents, have made an
effort to be amusing at the expense, of the
Senior Editor of the Standard Wedo not
regard such cattle as these. The Southerner
is dirty, funky sheet. It smells badly.
The new batch of traitors who have got
ten possession of the Wilmington Dispatch,
are putting on airs towards the Standard-
We believe one of these traitors was once in
Raleigh before Gen. Kruger, on the charge of
sedition. The General was lenient with
him. He ought to have been condemned to
twelve months hard labor at Fort Pulaski,
with ball and chain.
The question is, shall traitors or loyal men
rule this countrya This question will be
finally answered and settled in about six
months. Traitors will fall on their bellies
again, and eat dirt, as they did in 1865, and
true men will be appreciated and honored.
Mark the prediction.

Chance Chips.

Man, when he believes himself distinct
from everything around him, instinctiyely
returns thanks for the bounties which Ma
ture bestows; but when, by reflection, he
regards the universe more interiorly, the
idea of his separate personality Is lost, the
operations of the elements seem no longer
the result of yolition, and the forms of
natural piety and religion consequently
disappear
Wit aud sorry ridicule, in matters of
religion, are always attended with evil
consequences. The more habituated o
person becomes to the reading aud utter
ance of mere witticisms, the more does he
iucapacitate himself for sober deliberation.
We try to reflect but the jest returns; we
laugh again, let 60 inquiry, and never at

Man doubles the evils of his fate by
bordering over them. A scratch becomes
wound, slight an injury, a jest an in,
suit, small peril 4 great danger, and a
slight sickness often ends in death by the
brooding apprehensions OF the sick. We
should always look on the bright side of
life's picture.
Truth is but the correspondence between
things and our notions of them. To
search after truth, to love it for its own
sake, are, therefore, receivable into loving
and striving for notions that conform per-
fectly to their prototypes. True ideas are
actualities, but truth is nothing.
