The Way to Secure Peace.

from Ne AGtiOn
Everybody is just now speculatng with more
or less earnestness upon the probable course of
events when the new Congress meets next
spring. Nearly two months ago we ventured
to suggest in an article, which we believe many
of our readers at the time considered almost eX-
traVagant, that Mr.. johnson would probably
if majority of the whole number of members
of Congress could be secured by the union of
the Southerners claiming seats with the Demo
Gratis favorable to 'his policy"-refuse to recog-
nize the radical minor ity representing the ma
iority of the Northern electors, treat the Others
as the real Congress, and, If necessary, put
them in possession OF the Capito by force. Ali
thought OF any such plan was, however, indig-
nantly repudiated by Mr.. Johnson and his
friends, and the idea that he had even enter
tanned it was treated as wicked radical inven-
ton, and the public was reminded that he had
acknowledged the legality of the present Con-
gress in spite of the exclusion of the Southern
members, by approving and vetoing its bills.
1t very soon after began to appear, however,
that the Presidential mind was beginning to be
affected by the theories SO zeaionsly Propounoed
Congress was a trump Congress" whose au-
thority it would be meritorious act or at
most only venial sin, to disregard. He began
to talk in each stump speech, little more con-
temptuouslv of it, and little more respectfully
of his own high and mighty positlon as De
partment OF the Government" AT last ne
blurted out, what had probably long been Ter
menting In his breast, his belief that the present
Congress was not q department of the Govern
ment. but only "a body hanging on, on the verge
of the Governments" 'calling Itself the Con
gress of the United States" but being only In
reality a Congress OF part OF the States" This
was considerable step in advance. There is
only one other to make in order to prepare MN
to treat representatives of the States which have
put down the Rebellion and saved the Union as
entitled to no share In the Government unless
they choose 10 ADMIT to their body members
