pathies to the African race bli0d him 10 the
demands of justice and national SAFETY.
These are the Instructions which stand be-
tween Congress and the President On each
side distinct issue has been made. No doubt the
controlling fear Of the republican party in the
matter of the admission of the Southern States
is the Introduction of party balance Of power
against them in this Congress or in the next,
and in the approaching Presidential election.
But Andrew johnson, as the representative of
the whole Union, looks beyond these party
calculations He believes that his policy is
Just and right He adheres to it. He is willing
to test 1t before the people Of the North.
Internationally, in the event Of such
a test, the republican party, as now organized,
will be broken up and reduced to minority
in the next Congress. The maintenance of the
old Roman military provincial system over the
South will bring US nothing but trouble and
heavy expenses, while the Presidents restora-
ton scheme looks to the gain Of two hundred
millions worth of Southern products in support
of our foreign exchanges and the national
Treasury. The national debt is in no danger
from loyal Southern mon, and only such are
asked to be admitted by the President The
debts of the rebellion are gone beyond~sound-
ings, and can never be touched by any possible
political combination. The civil and political
rights Of the blacks can be secured under the
constitution as it now stands. On every side,
too, the President Is sustained by public
opinion, far beyond all the noisy copperhead
demonstrations Of the day.
The republicans in Congress, therefore, are
called upon to choose between the admission
Of loyal representatives from the Southern
States, or the disruption and reconstruction Of
the Union party of the Northern States; be-
tween President johnson and Thaddeus Ste
vens; between the road to the succession and
the road to ruin. This Congress and the
administration must work together, or in the
next the tables will be turned. Congress
sional caucus of the dominant party, in view
of its dangers and its duties, is urgently de-
manded for the interests, not only Of the party,
but of the Union, the Treasury and the people,
white and black, North and South.

THREATS OF ASSASSINATION OR IMPEACHMENT
Radical speakers and papers are talking about
"beheading" the President and removing the
Presidential obstacle" and putting the Presi-
dent out of the way" and impeaching him, and
oil such nonsense. The copperhead papers
profess to be greatly alarmed about this and
talk about defending and guarding tho Presi-
dent. This sort Of trash is very ridiculous.
The President Is in no possible danger from
any quarter, and consequently requires no pro-
lection from the copperhead camp. These
radicals bluster Q great deal, but il Is in a
Pickwickian sonse, like the boasts about their
heroism and patriotism during the recent war.

PUBLIC GIFTS TO GENERAL GRANr.-General
Grant has been the recipient Of many public
gifts since he has brought the war of rebellion
to triumphant conclusion, not one of which,
nor the whole of them in the aggregate, Is more
than he is justly entitled to. In other countries
q hero who has done great public service
usually receives his honors and rewards from
the government Titles are conferred upon
him by royalty; and estates are purchased by
grants from Parliament; but it is different with
us. Congress confers higher rank; but 1t is
the people who present the gifts. Here the
people are the government, and in cases like
that Of General Grant they take the functions
of the government directly into their hands.
It is therefore to the people that our heroes
look for their m ct substantial rewards, and it
Is meet that it should be SO in q republic.

More Freedmen's Bureau Liquidation.
Another bill has been already reported in
Congress to enlarge and continue the powers
of the Freedmen's Bureau. 1t is q considera-
bic modification upon the former bill, but still
has some dsagreeable features. tits especially
open to the great objection urged by the Presi-
dent against tho Senate bill. 1t authorizes
military supervision over "loyal refugees and
freedmen, and all matters relating to them"
thus taking q large portion of the Southern
population and all their interests and rights
entirely out Of the government Of civil law.
This would be as inconsistent with reconstruc-
ton as the military power established by the
other bill; only 1t limits the power given to
FIVE years, when the other was without limit
The limit OF time Is the only practical differ
ence between the bills; for this also would
make the bureau grand political machine, by
which, If the suffrage be given to the negro, an
immense vote would be corruptly controlled
for any bad purpose by the fanatical leaders.
Congress had better leave this sort Of legis-
lation alone. It must perceive by this time
that 1t cannot force Its extreme notions upon
the President; while, II It sincerely desires the
good Of the freedman, it may safely leave him
where he Is. He has no better friend, none
moro honestly and earnestly determined that
no shall have all his rights, than Andrew
johnson. The Freedmen's Bureau, as 1t Is, is
sufficient for its proper purposes, and when 1t
cannot secure those purposes, or when its term
expires, none will be more ready to renew 1t if
necessary than the President Can the country
doubt this, in view Of the fact that the Presi-
dents whole life has been struggle against
the very power that would encroach upon the
freedmen's rights! All the Freedmen's Bureau
bills that Congress can frame would not better
the condition of the negro, and the present
Congress can scarcely frame one that would
not be an obstacle of the most insuperable
character to restoration. Unless Congress Is
ready to give up all to radical lead once more,
1t had better not touch this subject at all.

having been on the watch for some time
past, were made aware yesterday that the
gang OF robbers, under the leadership Of
one hing, were in the vicinity of that
town, and turning out in short order, they
captured King and six of his party. About
the same time yesterday evening, as the
train from Nashville, being behind time.
was on its way to this city, it was compell.
od to run very slowly and carefully, being
running on the time of another train.
When between Rocky Hill aud Bristol
station, some Of the passengers discovered
tour men in the vicinity of the train whose
movements excited suspicion. Some of
the passengers therefore went out and ar.
rested them, and three Of them were iden.
titled by passengers on the train as being
with the gang who robbed the train q short
time ago. Three of these, whose names
are L. jackson, David Russell and Jake
Smith, were brought to this city and COM
mitied to Jail. The other man was let 20.

would be sent up here from Franklin to:

on the late train last night These men
arrested are supposed to embrace nearly
all the gang.
