The President and Consress-Rec
Demanded by the Country.
The public sentiment Of the Northern States
has, we think, been sufficiently developed
within the last two months to bring the Presi-
dent and Congress to reason, reflection and
harmony on the great issue of Southern re-
storation. Excepting the singular political
elements which hold the majority in this me-
tropo!is, we have no doubt that the constit,l-
tional amendment now before the States will
sweep the North from Maine to California.
1t is not what the radicals want, 1t is not what
the copperheads want, but it is exactly what is
wanted by that great body of the American
people who, with their unstinted contributions
Of men, money, arms, ships and supplies Of all
kinds, put down the late gigantic and tenacious
Southern rebellion.
At the beginning Of the last session Of Con-
gress the relations between the two depart
ments were Of such character IS to justify
! the conclusion that harmonious cooperation
| would prevail between them. The President,
in his annual message, turned over this bust
ness Of Southern reconstruction to the two
houses, where It constitutionally belongs. So
far it was we'll. But very soon the Jacobin
leaders and mischieEmakers began In Congress
their charges Of usurpation, treachery and
despotism against "the man ct the other end of
the avenue" and their hints Of impeachment
and their warnings Of the fate Of Charles the
First The President was naturally provoked,
and very injudiciously, we think, in q public
speech or two paid Oh his accuses in their
own coin. Then, resolved upon coercion, they
commenced and prosecuted their experiments
Of Negro Suffrage, Freedmen's Bureau, Civil
Rights and other bills and resolutions, some
Of which they failed to carry, some Of which
he vetoed, and two Of which they carried over
his veto. Thus the original rupture between
Andrew Johnson and Thaddeus Stevens was
widened into an apparently "irrepressible con-
fict" between the executive and legislative
the law-executing and law-making branches Of
the government
With the passage by . two-thirds vote In
each house Of the constitutional amendment
embracing the ultimatum Of Congress for the
restoration OF the excluded Southern States
this conflict between President and Congress
should have ended. The President should
have accepted the amendment as measure
constitutionally completed 80 far as Congress
was concerned. He SO recognized 1t in SUBJ
hitting 1t to the States through the Secretary
Of State, 80 that In carrying before The
people the question between his policy and
the policy Of Congress IL was simply upon the
expediency Of this amendment II Is not .
Jacobin measurc-the Objectionable radical
section originally put in was stricken out, and
