ORGANIZING.

A Washington dispatch says; Two dis
tine, parties are at work in every South
ern State to organize conventions under
the Reconstruction act The uncondi-
tional Union. men say, however, that the
disqualification of the Reconstruction
bill are not comprehensive enough to
insure the safety of the Union cause,
as many men now in Office will
be able to take the prescribed
oath and secure election. In Georgia
there is thorough organization offreed-
men, who, with Governor Brown party,
have Joined hands with them. In South
Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida
and Texas the organizations are not so
complete, but their ratifcations are rap
idly increasing. On the other hand the
class who FIJI the offices at present are
also organized.

Three hours debate took place In the

his credentials to the Judiciary Commit
tee, which will prevail tomorrow inc

Tor was based on the statement ne re-
tired as Secretary Of the Treasury from
President Buchanan's Cabinet on the
ground that il had decided TO reinforce
Fort Sumter and collect the duties on
shipboard at the port Of Charleston
We have no idea that MI. Thomas
will get his seat at ALL Half dozen
Radical Senators from the Western
wilds, and who represent nothing but
wolves, wildcats, panthers, buffalo,
prairie dogs, rattle snakes and few hunt
ers and trappers, can gain admission
But Maryland, great in intelligence
iIlustrious in history, and sacred to the
heart of the patriot, because she has been
trodden under foot and chained Tor her
love of liberty, cannot gain admitianee
for A Senator. Why not2 He is not a
Radical. That is all This spirit may
teach Us what kind Of Senators will be
admitted from the South when Shermans
iuguernaut has crushed over its bones.
Nobody who lived in the South during
the war. and did not openly take the Fed
eral side, will be able to gain admittance.
So soon as the new Legislatures shall
meet. nutmeg men from Connecticut,
sboe-pegcing fellows from Massachusetts,,
and all that kind of people, will pour
down to the South to become senators,
representatives, judges, etc. No great
Southern heart will be allowed 10 beat in
the capitol at Washington. Really, the
South will have no representation at the
end of reconstruction, for, as we stated
Yesterday, the Southern people will not
be in the Union. We deeply sympathise
with Maryland. She may yet come un-
der a Sherman military bill. Such a
threat has been made. 1t will be carried |
into effect, if no other plan shall avail to
secure a couple of Radical Senator'S.

''aren't you glad 70 see my face once

The clouds resisted and hurled them

Alas, they have succeeded, but too well.
That bright face is gone, but It is
pleasant to know that after month
of concealment it is the same

No Hope.

We stated yesterday that Judge Shar-
key, now in Washington, is about to ap-
ply for an injunction to suspend the
operations Of the military bill. Hon. W.
p. Harris, an eminent jurist of Missis-
sippi, is hopeless Of any redress through
the Supreme Court In recent letter
be says:
As the proprieiy Of seeking redress in
the Supreme Court has been suggested
in some quarters, ] take the occasion to
say there is no power in the Supreme
Court at the instance Of the State 10 pre-
Vent the law from taking effect ! do not
see how the State government can make
a case for Judicial action, which can
only be invoked in controversies about
property rights, or at least rights and
questions which are not purely political.

of a State government has, by that court,
been held 10 be a political and not Ju-
dicial ouestion-and 10 pertain TO Con

arise in which that court may be called

manders. 10 is matter Of grave doubt

THE BACKBONE.

The Chicago Times has made dis
covery. Speaking of the backbone of
the rebellion, it says We have heard
much of the backbone of the rebellion.
Its backbone was that covered by black
skin. While the planters and those fol-
lowing their fortunes were fighting, the
negroes were throwing up intrench-
ments, driving Confederate commissary
wagons, taking care of hospitals, and
doing the drudgery of the camp. More
than this, they we're raising the food to
supply the rebel armies, and taking care
of the wives and children of the rebel
officers and soldiers. 1t is nonsense to
say that they we're doing this through
fear. They did it within the lines of
our armies. They did it when desertion
was easy and they were offered the
strongest inducements to desert. Free
dom, and what was to them the extrava-
CANT pay of soldiers, enormous bounties,
and promises Of homesteads after the
close of the war, we're all offered, and yet
a." the loyal freedmen adhered to the
broken fortunes and desperate cause of
their rebel masters.

1nnaE LnNGsTREET.

The Mississippidn says Judge Long
street, the distinguished author of the
Georgia Scenes" is now living in Ok
ford, but is no longer connected with the
University, over which he formerly pre-
sided. Time has dealt gently with him,
silvering his hair and somewhat enfeeb-
ling his frame, it is true, but neverthe-
less leaving him, in his seventy-seventh
year, in the enjoyment of all natural
faculties. He has prepared revised
edition of the " Georgia Scenes for the
press, containing much new and interest
ing matter. This he at one time thought
of publishing himself, but now wishes to
dispose of the copyright for its publica-
ton elsewhere.

CoLoRED VOTE.

A Tennessee paper thinks it is emf
nently praisewortby, for the educated
whites throughout the country to explain,
as we'll as they are able, the politics of
the times to that ignorant class, who,
just redeemed from the shaekles of
slavery, are certainly unconscious Of the
responsibility so suddenly and unexpect-
eddy thrust upon them. Interest as well
as duty should prompt us all to instruct
the negroes in the duties of the hour"
We think so, too.

EAsT TENNEssEE FLOODS.

A traveller informs the Nashville Ga
zette that at Knoxville the flood has
been especially destructive along the
banks of First creek, on which stood
some fifty frame houses. The back water
shifted them about, careening some, up
setting others, budding them together
into corners under the wind, and sweep.
ing off few into the current Of the Ten.
nessee. The houses along the river bank
were all carried off except few bricks.
He says the trains are running from
Knoxville to Cleavland, and thence to
Chickamauga Creek, but owing to the
clayed beds being softeued and injured
by the rains and floods, while in many
places landslides are momentarily i'm.
minent, the trains travel very slowly, and
with extreme caution. The first serious
obstruction, however, is met at Chicka.
manga Greek. The bridge stone
structure-remains intact, but the ap
preaching causeways on either side and
the trestle on the north end have disap.
peared

FORCE OF GUEPowDER.

1t is said that one of the men killed
by the explosion Of the powder mill near
Xenia was thrown distance of three
hundred feet from the building, and lit
terally torn to pieces, the fragments being
scattered over the ground. The other
one was thrown nearly quarter of a
mile from the building, and was so badly
mutilatcd that he could not be recog-
nized. The Building itself was swept
away. A correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Gazette says: "The Little Miami
river runs near the scene of the explo-
sion, and for considerable distance the
water was swept from the bed and poured
in food upon the neighboring fields
Glass was blown from the windows of the
houses in Oldtown, two miles south of
the mill. The withdrawing was fu-
riously ripped from the sides of large
barn more than an eighth Of mile away.
For minute and a half after the explo-
sion, the air was horribly convulsed, and
terrible sounds, resembling a succession
of heavy thunder claps and rolls, could
be heard in every direction"

STARVATION AND TAXES.

Trumbull, Senator from Illinois, re-
Gently made this statement in the Senate
The former appropriations have been
sufficient to provide for the actual wants
Of freedmen and loyal refugees; but I'M
der the resolutions passing them, no
money could be spent in relieving the
restitution Of the disloyal.
II has been the custom of the Jacbbin
prints to charge the South with irgrati-
tude, in this, that while the Government
was feeding the rebels, the rebels were
abusing the Government The statement
of Trumbull gives a quietus to this false
hood. AS the law now stands, there is
no authority for giving a biscuit to a
starving rebel. If the reluctance of Con-
cress TO extend rations to the prescribed
class means anything, the law will not
be changed. The subject of including
them in general appropriation OF one
million dollars, hangs fire In a week,
or probably less, Congress will adjourn,
and thus the resolution will lie over till
fall. Mind you, no proposition was made
TO relieve these starving outlaws
from taxation. Not bit of it.
They may starve, die, and be - for
aucht Congress cares. That tax, SO
long as breath remains in their bodies,
shall be collected. Fifty millions per
annum is collected from the rebels. The
Congressional motto seems to be: mil
lions of taxation, but not a cent for
bread for the starving
During the days of slavery in the
South, the master took good care of the
health of his servants If he was not
naturally humane, interest prompted
such policy. The capital invested in
a field hand was from one thousand to
fifteen hundred dollars. 1t was sought
TO protect this capital and render it pro-
ductiye. To this end, ample food and
clothing we're requisite. The death, or
manning of the negro, was pecuniary
loss In a state of robust health he
would pay a remunerating per cent. on
his cost. For this and other reasons, the
negroes of the South we're kept in
COED condition. Why cannot Congress
take a similar view of the rebel popula-
ton of the South, and initiate, in respect
TO them, the niger drivers policy.
That department Of the Government has
official information that large number
of the white slaves in the South are
starving. Starving people cannot pay
taxes-robust people can. The slave
oligarchy" were not deferred from feed
ing their negroes Dy so unmanly fear
as that they, if fat and strong might re-
volt Why should Congress fear2 Should
not love of the taxes the Southern peo-
pie, in state of health, could pay, be,
in the bosom of a Yankee, a stronger
sentiment than fear of rebellion We
think so. We say nothing about the hu-
mainly Of rich Government that allows
its people to starye. The only mode Of
reaching it is an appeal to its interest
Itseems that in this case, it is not thus to
be reached. If starving men make no
revolutions, starving men should pay no
taxes
