to the Executive mansion" In fact look to the
men he has around him. Hon. E. Cooper is private
and confidential secretary. He voted for Mcclellan
and Pendleton, and against the ratification of our
amended State constitution in 1865 He is now a
bitter copperhead. In word, Andrew johnson
has made treason respectable and loyalty odious in
the seeded States. And in my opinion John Tyler
was true to the. party that elected him, compared
with the treachery of he who disgraces the
Presidential chair.
Inc American Congress, however, is composed of
good men and true, who are unwilling to permit a
one-horse despotism to reign with soepter of terror
over the loyal people of this nation. They will
guard the rights and honor of the nation, and its
loyal subjects. To them we are to look for extrca-
ton from the dilema into which Johnson's defec-
ton has thrown us-and gloriously will they per-
form their part But it should be constantly kept
in mind that while Congress alive to our interests
we should not forget to work ourselves.
If Tennessee adopts the proposed amendment,
then our members will be admitted at once-the
very day of its adoption

pointed the following committee: P. L. Mathews,

as a Justice of the Peace
I'd. Resolved. That as Chairman Of Court, which
office he filed honorably for q number of years, he
was always kind and courteous towards his associate
Justices, and that he always displayed good judg-
ment in determining what was right, and what
ought to be done for the interest of the county, and
uncommon frmness in carrying out what his judg-
ment dictated.
Union cause and Union men always found in Squire
Spicer a firm, fast and tried friend and the loyal
part Of the county owe to his memory debt of
gratitude for having as Chairman of this Court,
during those dark days appointed in every district
when it was practicable such as consCript Off
as would be likely TO subserve the interests of

Letter from Washington,
WASHINGTON, D. c.. June 3OtE

WASHINGTON, D. u June 3Oth, 1866.
Editors Whig:-Nothing very important has DC
CURED since my last except the extraordinary mes
sage OF the President protesting against the Con-
stitutional Amendment prescribing the terms of re-
construction. II is the most remarkable document
that ever emanated from the white House 1t is
nothing more nor less than the assumption of I'm
peral powers by the who has attained his pres
ent position by claiming to be plebian.
Mr. johnson has exercised authority in the Dem
ocratic party SO long he has caught the contageon
of tyranny. He now desires TO amend the Consti-
tuition himself prohibit its amendment at his will
He claims Congress should have submitted the
Amendment to him for his approval, and having
failed to thus comply with his wishes he has written
his brevet veto message and if the Gods had de-
termined his destruction, he has proved vain enoug
to assume the responsibility of becoming the leader
of the rebels Of the South. Talk about being pie
bean, and then attempt to grasp the powers of q
dictator! 1t is idol. The history Of the world
don't furnish more infamous effort to subvert free
legislation, and prevent the voice of the loyal peo-
pie from being heard, than this last message of the
President 1t is giant stride towards kingly pre-
negatives 1t demonstrates his nordnate thirst for
power, and shows very clearly his inscriptions de-
termination to WELD it right or wrong.
Two grave objections are urged against tine con-
stitutional amendment.
First the President thinks it ought to have been
submitted to him for his approval rejection, not
wthstanding such thing as vetoing constitution
is so grand an absurdity that nobody but tyrant
would think of SO doing. The veto power is vested
in the Executive for the purpose Of checking uncon-
sttutional legislation. But an amendment to the
constitution is not ordinary legislation nor can it be
unconstitutional for the reason, it is if adopted,
part of the constitution ITSELF otherwise of effect
Yet Mr.. johnson wants TO exercise the veto power
over even the constitution. This too, although be
has such high regard for this instrument that he Of

Portland july 5.-The fire has completely swept
through the city, destroying everything in its track
so completely that lines of streets can hardly be
traced in space OF and one-half miles long by
Il quarter wide. Many buildings perhaps fifty, were
blown up TO check the flames The inhabitants
could scarcely more than fee with their families to
the upper part of the city, saving such goods they
could carry. The custom house, being fre-proof,
escaped, though greatly damaged. The court re-
cords which were in the upper story were probably
destroyed. The splendid city and county building,

considered safe and were piled full of furniture by
the neighboring residents, and then it was swept
away with all its contents half this city is destroy

No Fault In the COnfederacy.

The First-of-M May Convention, while discovering
tyranncal proceedings the part of the Fedora
Government during the late that would put the
reign Of Nero TO the blush failed to discover any
thing on the part of the Confederate Government
deserving condemnation. Thousands of men were
hunted hanged shot, imprisoned, banished, and
their properties confscated, whose only crime was
LOYALTY 10 the Government Of their fathers. The
writer OF this paragraph IL one ravine IL the
Smoky Mountains south Of Moteys Ford, on the
Little Tennessee. the bleached skeletons Of nine
murdered Unonists, who had been left upon the
ground TO feast the wolves and carbon birds. In q
fence-corner on the roadside the skeleton Of
another murdered Union man, and near by, bang
ing on Il fence-stake, was an empty coffin, which the
sister Of the victim bad brought TO give her brother
christian sepucher. The coffin had an inscription
upon it, threatening any one with death who should
give burial TO the bones of the tory. The evidences
of these specific atrocities we looked upon with our
own eyes The citizens Of the neighborhood told
US these persons were murdered by detachmentS
from the command of Gen Vaughn, who were de-
tailed for that work by order of that officer. Ken
lucky too can point to her murdered citizens and
burned towns Yet we do net hear word in
condemnation of such outrages.--M Sterling (hV)

No not one word of complaint against those rebel
outrsges. There is praise for the Confedcracy
praise for JEFF. Davis praise for his Generals, and
his thieves and robbers called soldiers, praise for
their principles, praise for their PrGctioeS even in
robbing house burning and hanging, but no praise
Tor the Union no praise for its Generals none for
ns living and dead heroes who fought its battles
their principles and objects. There is no sympathy
felt expressed by these traitors and their journals
for the distressed widows and orphans of the Fed
eral dead none for those who have been hanged,
tied to trees and wagons and shot, or whipped on
their bare backs until they have tainted. The re-
constructed papers in the service of the President
are furious in denurciation of Radicals, and the
