Discussion and the Military Act.

"Adsices from New Orleans stdte that tho
Times. Crescent and Picayans, have received oAi-
cial warning, that they must not publish articles
rejecting on the Reconstruction acI- -"-Loniscitie
Courier = - 80 'S e
If the military authorities, had determined
that there should be no discussion either in
the press or in popular assemblies of the peo-
pie, on the Reconstruction act, no one, wanld
have q right, perhaps, to complain. They
were put oyer the Southern country, for the
purpose of seeing taat this aot should be car
ried out, iIapartialiy would be fairness. If
discussion would produce dissatisfaction or
contention, then stop Observation-Disclosures
on all sides,-in the public press and in po!!
litical assemblies. But toallow political ennis
saries from 4the North. to traverie the whole
South, and to harangue the black population
at every village Or muster ground, in fayoHof
the Reconstruction act, and to Good it with
political tracts, manufactured at the North for
the same purpose-and then to turn round
and say to Governor jenkins, or tue New
Orleans press, that they Shall not discuss the
merits Of this act,Sis simply the grossest ty
ranny. Such a'lcourse mast talie, from the
enforcement of the Military act, even the
semblanoe vf choice or approval the part
of the South. All its contrivances Of registry
aud voting are entirely superfuous.s Ayoe
in barack, at the call of.athe drum, would
be far simpler, and just as .eficacious in its
manifestation of popular opinion in its favor.
If tie object OF the act and ofAhoses s@aho are
in the South to administer it. lis simply to.
get the act through to promote party ends,
perhaps this copr9a may be Just what we
ought to expect; but if the objectis, really
to take the sense of the people, and to effect
an actual, not sham reconstruction of the
Union over therSouthern States, discussion
on all sides ought to be permitted. Discus
sion on one side only, is the argument Of the
bayonet.
As the Supreme Court Of the z plited States
has thrown over the cases of Mississippi and
Georgia, lately pending before them, the At
torney, General of the United Stairs must give
his opinion as to the extent of the re:istry
required by the Military act,-and it becomes
the duty of our citizens 10 prepare for the
election which now is inevitable. For our
part, we would ohpye preferred that the whole
matter, without discussion or agitation, should
have been left to the quiet administration Of
the Southern people. But the Radical party
of the North, will not allow the Southern
people to manage their affairs III their own
way. Their emissaries are trafersing, OUT
country, in, the fendish enterprise Of arraying
the black race against the white, in direct
antasonism: hat will be the future effect
of thislpolicy, they seem not to i!are. That
if carried out it will destroy the black race in
the SoHth, The experience of all history de-
cIarcs.: 1t Will be- the duty of the So1thern
people, il fpossible,to prevent this catastrophe.

Hov. W. w. BoYoE on RECONSTRUCTION.
Mr.. Bo5ce, formerly representative from
SoutE Carolina in Congress, has. written a let

resistanre: re tells bis Old eonstiHents that
to stand aloof from the work of reeonstruc-
ton undsr the law, of,vote against holding o

course, he contends, will insure a transfer OF
political power to the negroes, and " following
upon this will come, not confiscntion by Con-
eress, but taxatiph IRON Radical State Leg

taxation will bs Utmost equivalent TO aonas',

GoRDoNsvlLLE, SMITH Co., July lii
That no one should be prescribed for
his political or religious opinions, is max
i'm universally admitted in this coutry. I
most certainly subscribe to its unquestion
able truth. go further, and say that
every person has the right to practice his
politics and religion many way he chooses.
The only limitation, L hold, there can be
to this right, is that in doing so he must
not violate the rights Of others. Hence a
man has perfect right to belong to
league, and even a white man may assem-
BILE with coloFid men in the daskness of
night in such an organization. Whether
he shall do SO OF not is a good deal a mat
ter of taste, about which there is no dis
putting. But when he goes into such an
organization for the object of continuing IN
slavery assd degradation has oagn race, the
act ceases to be matter ofopinion or ques
ton of policy, and becomes practical in
vasion of the rights of others, and wrong
for which he is responsible. A man by
such action becomes the enemy of his race
and ceases to be entitled to their respect.
If his object were to enslave and degrade
the negro, he would equally deserve the
reproach and condemnation of every hon
est man. In that instance, as members of
the dis-Union League are now doing in re-
gard to the white man, he would be invsd
ing the rights of Others.
The white man, therefore, who is mem
stitution is now organized in Tennessee,
fOrfeits thereby the respect of every honest
man. His very presence should be shun-
ned. All social intercourse should be
Withdrawn from such a man. The very es-
sence of that institution is treason against
the peace of society, the memory of our
ancestors, the declaration of independence
which they proclaimed, and against the
Constitution and Union of that Govern
ment which they formed. The poor negro
who is deluded into this disunion league
deserves our CONFERENCE.-The white
deceiver only our scorn and contempt
''To this complexion" has the issue come
and let the DISTINGUISHED and enslaved peo-
pie of Tennessee accept it, as it is forced
upon them, at once. Let them commit no
violence, but in calm indignation refuse to
lick the hand that smites them. Shun the
man who would enslave you as you would
pick-pocket and horse-thief. The man
who seduces ignorant negroes into dark
places at night is that man, and is more
dangerous than he who would steal your
horse or pick your pocket.
