When Mr.. Jefferson bought OF France for
10000 the vast region then known as
Louisiana--a mighty empire of the most fer
tile land under the sun-he frankly avOwed
that he had no authority for SO doing-that he
had utterly transcended his constitutional
power He declared that Congress might dis
avOw his act, and leave him to brave the con-
sequences. He held. that the Constitution
should be amended in order to legalize his
purchase, which must otherwise remain a
gross usurpation. If any one had told him
that his act was valid without the assent OF
Congress, he would have deemed that super
serviceable champion fit tenant for straight
jacket
President Johnson and Secretary Seward
have chosen to initiate a negotiation for the
purchase of the Danish West India isle of st.
Thomas, and another even more insignificant
the two comprising an area of less than one
hundred square miles. The stipulated price Of
these two islets-fOr which 81, 200 600 would
be exorbitant--is 81, 200, 600. The World asserts
mat, though we are to pay this vast amount,

The r.. publican Plan of Campaign.

The Republican Plan OF Campaign.
From the ". Y. World.
The Republican party has made its first
move in the Presidential campaign. The late
elections, routing them in 80 large part of
the North, made it necessary for them, on the
issue joined in those elections, viz.-whether
the control of the suffrage should be usurped
by Congress, taken from the whites of the
South by wholesale, and by wholesale con-
