GREELEY ON THE CONSTITUTIONAL.
AMENDMENT-HIs ANSWER TO Demo-
CRATIC OBJEcTIoNs.-1 They assert
that the Republicans have not pro
posed it in good faith. In their view
scores of such men as William Pitt
Fesscnden, Henry Wilson, John
Sherman, Lyman Trumbull, Timothy
y. Howe, &c, are tricksters and
cheats, who spent months in devisinp
an amendment to the Constitution
which the South would not accept.
yet which the North would consider
fair, so as lin their phrase) to ''per-
petuate disunion.
We do not deem this deserving an
answer. They who really suppose
that eminent statesmen are simply
sharpers of a low grade will continue
IN this faith, whatever may be said to
the contrary. They are to be not
convinced but pitied. But those who
mlslead them know better
2. They assert that the States
lately in revolt have no assurance
that their Representatives will be ad-
mltted to seats III Congress if they
should ratify the amendment.
In Il certain sense that is true.
We can imagine fashion of ratifica-
tion that would not insure instant
admission to Congress- 4 State
might ratify with palpable intent not
to have the amendment engrafted on
the Constitution, but in order to
acquire power to defeat it, But if
any State shall, in good faith, ratify
it, accepting it.as u settlement of the
chief matters in dispute, and doing
its best to have it generally ratified
and acquiesced in, then we presume
that State viii be treated exactly as
Tennessee has already been. She
ratified it, and was fully represented
in both houses of Congress within
the ensuing week.

columbia and Augusta Railroad.

The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel,
speaking of railroad conventions,
says:
The road to Columbia is one Of the
most important links in the great
line of railways passing through this
place, and it is of the very first i'm
portance to the prosperity of the city
that it be pushed forward to compile
ton ut the earliest practical period
This road was commenced about the
time of the breaking out of the war,
and was kept alive by the indomita-
bic energy and perseverance Of its
President through the long and
gloomy period of our late disastrous
struggle. We learn that nearly all
the grading is finished, and that,
with the aid of our city now, in the
way of a liberal subscription, it can
be placed upon footing which will
insure its successful completion at no
distant day. The interests Of our
whole people are so directly involved
in this enterprise that we have no he
station in earnestly recommending
our city authorities to lend it such
aid us they may be able to do, in
view of the present financial condi-
ton of the city Our people are too
poor to raise much money from their
individual resources for the encou-
ragement of railroad enterprises. But
if some plan could be devised where
by the credit of the city could be OBJ
tanned for the road, either i'll the en-
dorsement of its bonds, or by the is
suing and sale Of bonds by the city,
to be loaned to the company, or for
the purchase of stock III the road, we
are very sure such a plan would meet
the hearty approval of large lnajori-
ty of our people and taxpayers.
We suggest that the city subscribe
for S150.O00 in the stock of the road,
paying therefor, i'll her bonds, at par
These bonds could be used by the
company in the purchase of coin,
and when they fell due, could be paid
by selling the stock for which they
are issued. No man who has inves-
tigated the matter will doubt for Il
moment that it will be paying road
Improperly managed, and, therefore,
its stock will bring par as soon as the
road is completed.

In regard to the Presidents plan of

''To that plan, l regarded the

its conventions and the resolutions of

that plan [ am still committed by the

The CroHvntnS Horror.

Fifteen Union soldiers, confined at
Andersonville until the close of the
war, were last Monday discovered
still in confinement in a cave near
Atlanta, guarded by rebel guerillas,
and totally ignorant that the war was
ended. They were starved and ema-
ciated. having been cruelty abused,
and most of them were nearly idiotic
from the protracted confinement in
darkness, not having seen the light
since leaving Andersonviile.
Chicago Post.
The Atlanta Ne,c Era pronounces
the above q simple, unreheved. abso-
lutte lie, without even the shadow of
q foundation, upon which the New
Orleans Crescent thus comments:
1t is all very we'll for the Atlanta
Nee Era to take such a lofty stand
ing upon the subject; but who that
knows that q conspiracy was lately
discovered in this city to assassinate
Gen. Sheridan and overwhelm his
forces cat one fell swoop," will doubt
the Chicago Post9 Who that knows
the chain-gang at Mobile only yester-
day unearthed 100000 rebels, splen-
didlv armed, equipped, provisioned,
ammunitioned and drilled, preparing
for the next advance against the
Spanish Fort, will question the vera
city OF the Chicago Post? Who that
has ever heard King Cntler, or Duck
Durant, or Mike Hahn, portray the
horrors and dangers that surround
them, will doubt this latest revelation
OF the Chicago Post2 Who that has
heard the account of the fearful at
tempt to assassinate the lovely Gov.
Wells, and to murder him by smo-
thering him with horrid Confederate
flags, will ever doubt the Chicago
Post?
Oh, no! Mr. Atlanta Netc E,u, you
cannot blind folks in that fashion.
AS surely as the New York Herald is
hightoned and incorruptible-as sure
as Horace Greeley-is as firm and Just
as many believe him to be sagacious
us surely as Maj. Gen. Butler is
magnanimous, honest and truthful
as sure as Thad. Stevens is an angel
of love and mercy. and Il faithful
representative OF II m who preached
'Peace on earth and good will to-
ward men" last "crowning nor
ror' is Il friyhtful, palpable, damna-
bic reality. Read it again and be-
lieve! Let us have no more attempts
to throw cold water on such records
as these, which bear the impress of
truth on their very face. Tell the
truth, and shame the devil!
