The Veto n Good Hing and Nos n
Good Thing.

On sundry occasions the Governor of
New York, during the late session OF the
New York Legislature, thought it his duty,
as the representative of the interests of the
whole people OF that State, to exercise the
veto, and for doing this the New York
Tribune commended him heartily but the
exercise of the veto by President JOHNSON,
to subserve what he considers the best in
terests of the whole country, excites the
reverse of pleasant feelings in the Tribune.
This ought to be considered singular.

ApDIication for GuardiansbIp,

Some time since, Abraham Davenport,
son of Samuel Davenport, of Jefferson
township, made application before Judge
Pugh for the appointment of Guardian
for his father, on the ground that the latter,
who is man of seventy years of age, had
become of unsOund mind and inca able of
taking care of his property and managing
his own business. Mr.. Davenport ST., we
understand, is the owner of farm ofabout
seventy acres in Jefferson township.
Yesterday afternoon the application came
up for an adjourned hearing. Warden and
II. B. Albery appeared as counsel on the
side Of the applicant, and Rankin for the
father, who claimed that he stood in no
need of a Guardian. Some forty or fifty
witnesses had been summoned in the case,
chiefly from Jefferson township. Those on
the part of the applicant were examined,
and the further hearing of the case con-
tinued till nine O'clock this morning.

Hon. DIS. WALKER. Governor of Florida
under date April z, has written letter In
reply to scoundrel by the name of Rev. L..
M. HoBBs, who bore false testimony before
the Reconstruction committee against the
people of Florida. The letter is scathing
exposure of the depravity OF this Rev. Mr.
Horns; and the Governor declares, as un-
deniable, that the President "by his Re-
construction policy, has done more than all
other men put together to recall the affec-
tions OF the people to the Government, and
his recent Veto messages have satisfied"
them that they ''stil live under constitu-
tional Government" and that "there is no
treason in Florida" .,
What is true with regard to Florida is
equally true of all the lately insurgent
States. The President is recalling the af-
fections of the people of those States to
the Federal Government. Is this not what
our people desire should be done? Do
they. not want the affections of the people
of the South recalled to the Govern
ment, so that we shall have security
against future Instructions and to obviate
the necessity of the maintenance OF apow-
erful standing army, which would add to
our now excessively burthensome taxation!
A Government is strong or weak just in
proportion as it has the affections of its
people. If a large number of the people
are sullen and Disconnected, the Govern
ment is afflicted in way that not only
contributes to its weakness; but it argues
that its Administration has not illustrated
wisdom. The chief aim and purpose OF the
Federal Government should now be to 're-
call the affections of the Southern people
to-it. 1t is evident that President JOHNSON
has hit upon policy that is efficacious to
produce such recall Why then not give it
support, instead of supporting the Chinese
plan of cutting, hacking, disemboweling
and decapitating that the Radicals would
be pleased to have adopted?
What they Have been Driving at.
The Ne,cYork Tribune insists that the ex-
treme men in the Republican party did be-
gin right. First they treated the slaves as
"cOntrabands of Nar;" then they abolished
slavery in the District of Columbia; then
they enrolled them in the army then they
abolished slavery by constitutional amend
ment; then they "plaeed the Civil Rights
of the Blacks under the protection of
Federal statute, and Ho10 they propose to
cro,0n The eaifce by securing TO them the right
Of suffrage" So, all along the Radicals have
been driving at conterring suffrage upon
the Negroes. To us this is not new. From
the start we have seen it. The pending is
sue, therefore, really is: "Shall suffrage be
conferred upon the Negroes?"

THE VETO.

We commend to the attention of our readers
the able message from the President of the
United States sent to the Senate YESTERDAY,
stating his objections to the act establishing a
bureau for freedmen and refugees on account
OF Its unconstitutionality, inexpediency and
expensiyeness, and because it il in violation OF
the rights and interests Of eleven States Of the
Union net represented in the Congress Of the
United States
No one can doubt his sincerity when he
says: 81 share with Congress the strongest
desire to secure to the freedmen the full en-.
toymeut Of their freedom and their property,
and their entire Independence and equality in
making contracts for their labor" and we think
the arguments he advances sustain his opinion
that the bill contains provisions not warranted
by the Constitution, and not well suited to &C.
complish the end in view. The establishment
OF military jurisdiction over large portion Of
the country, and the creation Of arbitrary tri-
bunals from which there lies no appeal, no
writ OF error to any Of the courts in which the
Constitution Of the United States vests exclu-
sively the Judicial power Of the country, is not
only Objectionable for Its uneonstitutionality,
rs 30 forcibly stated by the President, but Is
totally at variance with the genius OF American
institutions.
The true friends Of the colored people are
not those who would keep them in a dependent
conditions state Of peonage-merely trans.
ferring them from the care Of their masters to
the more humane guardianship Of the Govern.
ment; but rather those who win help them to
attain an independent condition, and teach
them self-reliance by the shortest and most
practical methods. We fully agree with the

and strongly urges such action as will lead TO
