officers are to be put in nomination. They
are three In number. State Treasurer, Su-

Member Of Congress Tor the State at large.
The cali is brief, pointed, and properly
wordcd. It expresses in one sentence the
unanimous opinion OF the party In this
Stale which voted for Lincoln and johnson

VIC print elsewhere the neat and plthy res
olutions Of a meeting OF the Freedmen at
Newbein, North Carolina, relative to tho visit
Of Generals Stedmnn aud Fullerton. They
think, very sensibly, that the object OF send
Ing the Brigadicrs down there was to find
some ground for removing the Bureau and
make political capital for the Presidents
policy; that 70 long as they arc denied the
mode of protection enjoyed by the white
nan. viz. : the right to vote and besr arms in
self-dcfcnce. they need the special protection
Of the Bureau, but that the moment they
shall be allowed to votc, they and the loyal
whites will protect themselves. They con-
demn Mr.. Fitz, thank Congress for the Civil
flights Bill, and cypress decided leaning To-
ward the policy Of Congress, rather than that
of the President. On the whole, If the entire
co1orcd people Of that State should be allow
I'd TO vote for just such platform, and for
officers committed to carry it out, there
would be somebody down South voting with
the Nort heIu pcopIe.

cuS,s0ssraEs OF PoLltrIcs.


IT III well known that Mr. John Stuart Mill
is an advocate Of the two somewhat singular
political doctrines Of representation for
1uInouties" and "plural votinE.n Under
ouff eystem we believe the minority In every
Rcpublican district Is sufficiently represented
bv the persons elected by the majority in
every Democratic district, and rice persa, tho
Republican minority IN every Democratic
sentatives elected bY the Republican majority
in Republican districts. Thus Benjamin
Wood, In Congress-, being elected by con-
s,itucncy in which rascallty, drunkenness and
vice are In the majority, and virtue, decency
aud morality nre in ths minority, he
virtually represents not only the vice OF his
own Congressional district, but Of every Re-
publican district in which these clements arc
In tie minority. On the other hand, II there
be any minority addicted to virtue and
dccency in Ben Woods district, that minority
may be said to be represented by any
respectable Republican in Congress. We fail
TO see, therefore, the necessity of 3 represen-
tatlon for minoritics, at least under universal
suffrage, fuasmuch as where all vote there
will never be a period when the minority
will he everywhere outvoted aud
nowhere represented. Those who are
outvoted in one district must be
represented In some other. The principle Of
extending votes to certain classes OF men rel
a1ively to their age, political experience,
wealth, learning aud social position. Is yery
moderately held by Mr.. Mill. But Mr..
Lorimer has recently published at Edinburgh
a work entitled ;" Constitutionalism Of the

WHAT THE UNION PARTY IN VIR-

Hon. John H. Bolts, somewhat remarkable
rs being the only Union man in Virgtnia du-
ring the war, sends In to Congress plan Of
reconstruction, which has at least the merit
Of representing the unanimous sentiment Of
the entire Union party in that State. It con-
sists simply in excluding from holding any
Office, State or Federal, during tue next ten
years, all persons who participated in the re-
bcllion and who were over twenty-five years
Of age at the time South Carolina seeded,
md in requiring from NIL under that age, be-
forc permitting them to hold Office, IN oath,
that they will hereafter recognize their alie-
Eience 10 the Federal Government as supreme,
nnd that to the State Government rs subordi-
nate. Ills leading idea Is to distinguish be.
tween the designing *sold heads" and the de-
luded young men and boys. Such terms tor
