severe would be strictly just. 1t is to-day a
matter Of doubt, whether we are doing our
whole duty to our nation in receiving back
traitors without some guarantees to serve as
bonds to prevent them once more convulsing
the nation. When the North has full time to
deliberate on the spirit now evinced and the
conditions imposed, and when the represen-
tatives OF the people meet once more In the
national capital with the strongest endorse
ment of their districts, we give fair warning
to the Southern people that, unless they have
adopted the magnanimous conditions sub
mitted they will be allowed to return
only by passing under yoke. They will be
readmitted only on terms to which the ones
to which their assent is now asked are nothing
The spirit of the people is being aroused
Let them remember that the Northern heart /;
can be fred as well as the Southern heart,
and that, when once ignited the flames can
not be quenched save by the destruction OF
all who oppose their progress.

The Climax in RaIiimore.

WHAT has been prophesied and fully ex-
pected by both parties as sure to be the issue
of the difficulty in Baltimore, has at last taken
place. Governor Swami has removed the
Police Commissioners, and has appointed
Others in their stead. We had hoped, for the
sake OF a decent respect for the position Of
Governor of State, Governor Swami would
have displayed little less partsanship and
little more Justice. In the decision of
the Chief Executive of Mary land, and in
the language in which it is couched, we
find throwing aside of any cloak OF fairness,
and the assumption of the character oil
member OF a political party, and not
the judicial character which we would
naturally expect would be assumed by
Governor Isitting in Judgment. We are glad
that he has thus thrown aside the mask and
openly acted, with his biassed judgment ex-
posed.
Now that the axe so long suspended has
at length fallen, let us see what will be the
probable effect II the schemes of the Gov
ernor succeed, then the Rebellion will recover
all that it has lost in Maryland The dis
franchised traitors will once more hold office,
and the Union radical element become
dwarfed into comparative insignificance, and
sink into a hopeless minority. Ii, on the
other hand, the law, as passed by the Legis-
lsture and signed by this same Governor
Swami, be enforced which prevents the right
OF. suffrage being extended to Rebels, then
W the efforts of the Governor be futile.
1t is idle to anticipate that, after having
thus given. his decision, Mr.. Swami will allow
it 10 remain a dead letter. He will at once
demand that his new Commissioners be sworn
into ONCE. Ine case pIvN,.Ll,. 80. ol, a
climax to-day. If the Judge refuses to
swear them in until the appeal made to the
Court by the present incumbents be acted
upon, they will either have to submit, or
else the President will compel them to act
without the formality of an OATH The
present Commissioners have possession,
which in itself is nine-tenths of the law.
They will hold on until their successors show
proof not only that the occupants are un-
worthy, but also that the contestants are
legally entitled TO their places.
Either, therefore, a direct act of violation
of law must be performed by the conserva-
tive leaders, or else the scheme of Swami
will be of no avail We anticipate the open
violation OF law, and the installation of the
so-called Commissioners by force-in which
case we advise our friends over the border
to attempt no resistance. The Congress OF
the United States will right their wrongs,
and see that not only Justice is secured to them,
but that most condign punishment is meted
out to all law-breakers, be they highest or
lowest in the land. Let us have no warfare.
The law will vindicate itself in course OF
| time

there are, indeed, some substantial grounds
on which to base q claim for exemption. But
the difficulty consists in deciding Just where
the line between this and other property
should be drawn. Under such circumstances
the only chance for justice to all consists In a
total abolition Of the system of exemption.
From this sweeping reform, however, we
deem it expedient to except the public
schools. The purity and preservation OF our
free institutions depend on the education OF
the masses. and for this reason education
should be left entirely free and untrammeleo'
We are glad to see that this subject mas aV
last received in our City Councils that atten-
ton which it merits. At the session OF last
week, a resolution was introduced into the
Common Council by Mr.. II. M. Evans, mem
ber from the Fifteenth Ward, instructing the
Committee on Law to inquire what real
estate in the city of Philadelphia now exempt,
either bv general or special laws, should bear
its portion of the city tax, and to report an
act for presentation to the next Legislature
for the repeal of such laws of exemption as
they shall deem unwise and unjust to the tax
paving citizens. The resolution was referred
to the Committee, from whom it will doubt
less receive prompt attention.
Mr.. Evans did not stop at this point, how
ever, but Immediately afterwards introduced
a resolution, which received a similar refer.
ence, requesting the Legislature to empower
the City Councils to levy special tax upon
all the fire insurance companies, whether
local or foreign. which transact a business
in the city, the proceeds to be devoted to the
support and maintenance of the Fire Depart
ment OF Philadelphia. A more Just and
equitable measure could not well be devised,
as it is greatly to the interest of the insurance
companies to have the Fire Department as
efficient as it can possibly be rendered.
We understand that this measure has received
the endorsement OF the Committee on Law.
1t is proposed to levy tax of two per cent.
on the dividends of home companies, and one
of three per cent on such foreign companies
as have established agencies in this city.
When the final action of Councils is had, we
do not doubt but that their reasonable request
will receive ready compliance at the hands
of the Legislature.

THE TEST OATH-Senator Anthony, OF
Rhode Island is one Of the editors OF the
Providence Journal, which speaks in this
wise of the Test Oath
1T is clear that time will come when
the oath will be almost if not quite a6an'
doned. Common sense will dictate that
!, should be given up. That would be
far better than to bring down men from
the North to put in every sub.dlstrIct
What we want now is not so much to
punish every rebel in the South as to Sc
cure every reasonable assurance OF safety
in the future. There are many men IN
the South who cannot take the test oath,
but whom we should have no fear oil
trusting in posts Of responsibility"

THE SONGS OF THE SOUTH.
BY ELLIS AMMoEETTE.

BY ELLIS AMMoEETTE.
Tie songs Of the South has their melody fled,
That the lips which once breathed them, now
breathe them no moreH
~ ia the devotion that walked them now dead.
Or sleeps it awhile since the struggle is DER
The songs of the South there's spell in each
strain
To waken a rapturous love for our soil
Then sing them, proudly and fondly again
In the hours of mirth or when bending in toll.
The songs OF the South let them swell on the air,
When the blushing of dawn has crimsoned the sky,
And LET them the fervor of evening hymns share,
When the fires of the West reluctantly die.
Tho song, of the South let their notes mingle
sweet, :,
with the carol of birds in their own woodland
groves,
And Familiarity blend with sounds of the street
In the thick crowded haunts which humanity
loves.
The songs of the South teach our children to sing
The laws of the land which gave them their Dlrth;
10 1--we them, and still with devotion to cling
In pride to their home as the dearest on EARTH

description as to the "party," he adds:
