In view of the Presidents attempt TO
annul the laws of Congress, by issuing his
Amnesty Proclamation, it becomes a subject
nj interest, to ascertain what his powers of
pardon are. The only power which Mr.
Johnson possesses is that derived from the
Constitution, as follows -
The President shall have power TO grant
reprieves and pardons for offences against
the United States, except in cases of i'm
parchment.
In lsG2, Congress delegated its powers of
amnesty to the President, by Bill, under
which Mr.. Lincoln acted in his Proclama-
tions of December, 1868, and March 1864.
But that Act was repealed by large MAORI
ty of Congress, last December, and hence
johnson has no such authority as President
Lincoln possessed. Concerning the power
placed in his hands by the Constitution, as
above quoted, this mornings Press says B.
Under the provisions of the Constitution,
he has no power to grant amnesty. He may
only grant rcpreves and pardons against
the United States Amnesty and pardon
are very different The first is an act Of
oblivion, which abolishes the crime and
with ii the penalty. A pardon recognize:
the fact of the crime, but releases the rccp
lent from the punishment due to the offence
The President may pardon single offenders
Int he cannot issue any wholesale act o
grace. That power rests only in Congress
who derive it from the people. Congress
delegated that power to the President, an,
afterwards withdrew it because they saw h
would abuse the privilege,

WASHINGTON, Monday, Sept. 4, 1867.
The Presidents Amnesty Proclamation has
been the subject of much comment to-day The
general Interpretation put upon ii is, that liz
author intends that those to whom il applies arc
rc-cstabshed fully to all the rights of citizenship
including eniranchistmcnt. 1t is given ont that
a test will soon be made in one Of tic South
ein States, through the courts which will
bring out an opinion from United
States Judge. The Southern men who have been
lobbying Tor the Proclamation seem dissatisfied
with it. They state that it is wide OF what they
wished, and what the people of the South wished.
Some are bold enough to say that its author Is
dishonest, and has failcd to keep his promises in
the matter also that the Proclamation is the re-
| suit OF Democratic politicians controlling the
President, AMI is intended for political capital.
| They state further that not over a hundred per-
sons IN the South will be benefited by it, as most
oil the classics to whom it applies have already
been specially and individually pardoned by the
President. For instance nearly all of the Rebel
State Governors have been heretofore partloned
and in Virginia the only man who was mem
Der of Congress, and left his seat to engage
in the Rebellion, and who has not been pardopcd
individually by the President is Thomas s.
Babcock. The general impression, how
ever, was that the President intended to in
cude Acknowledgement among the rights restored
to those Rebels receiving the amnesty, and before
noon Gen. Grants Office was besieged with news
paper correspondents, looking for Il an order from
the President rcopcning registration in the South
ern states. No such orders have yet been issued

B. G. HARRIS, the rebel Maryland NJ. o.,
made violent speech against the adoption
Of the new Constitution in that State, at
Leonardstown, on the 9th inst. A number
of influential men in ST. Marys county are
said to Support Harris. His argu ment
against the Constitution is that it goes too
far toward Radical ideas. Concerning rene
gade Tom Swami he was very severe, thus
ly:-
ssThey may call him Benedict Arnold and
Judas Iscariot, but we have nothing to do
with that, but we have great deal to do
with the constant accumulation of rewards
upon him and which may keep him from
having time to follow the example OF Judas
and-go hang.
Notwithstanding Mr. Harris opposition,
we presume the Democrats will be strong
enough to adopt the Constitution.

ry THE PEOPLE SPEAK.

In view of the present crisis in the affairs
of the nation of Andrew Johnson's shame
less treachery and bold defiance of the laws
of Congress, we suggest public meeting OF
our citizens, to give expression to the indig-
nation Of the loyal masses at the course the
President has seen fit to pursue.
Let the people assemble and sustain the
Congressional policy of reconstruction and
rebuke this bold disturber of the nations
peace. The parasites who hang around the
White House, have once more fiattered the
mad and malignent fool who inhabits it into
the belief that the majority of the nation are
with him, and supporters of his "policy.
Ii the popular indignation does not once
more show him his mistake, no one can tell
to what lengths he will push his runious
course before Congress can lay Its strong
hand upon him, and give the nation peace
and safety once more, through his removal
Let us then, at an early date, have large
meeting of our people, to join with the loya
masses every where in sustaining Congress
and the heroic Generals, IN peace
as well as war,-who have been insulted ant
removed for obeying the laws enacted by tn
Nations chosen representatives, land also t
rebuke and condemn the lawless action an
treacherous conduct of Andrew johnson.

THE CONVENTION

Those who were present at Institute Hall,
on Wednesday, will bear testimony with us
that il had an assemblage remarkable for its
dignity, responsibility, and carnestness. 1t
will be useless for its enemies to impeaeh its
character. 1t assembled as American citi
lenA have right to assemble; il deliberat
ed ms earnest and patriotic men alone can
deliberate, and its functions were dis
charged prudently, quietly and without
shadow of dissension.
Such body, it is safe to say, never be-
fore came together within Tie borders Of
Delaware. The white citizens, now voters
met with the colored citizens, deprived of
their rights, and together they resolved that
the common rights of citizenship are sacred
TO ALL and that difference in complexion is
no test of fitness to exercise the privileges
which the Republic protects.
Inc addresses of our distinguished visitors
who gave their attention to the occasion,
were well and eloquenuy made. They pre-.
scented with force and clearness the issues
involved, and their appeals in behalf Of I'm
partial Justice were responded to with sym.
pathetic enthusiasm.
The resolutions adopted speak for the Gov.
rention They are temperate but firm, cain
but resolute, The first and second, Will
they clearly indicate our conviction tina
Congress is bound to secure to us lieput
lican Form of Government, apply howevt
for such legislation as that loyal and patr
otto body shall deem most fit and appropr
ate. We believe an Amendment to the Cor
stitution is not necessary, but if it be. W
ask that one covering the whole ground b
Immediately proposed to the States.
The Convention now goes 10 the peopl,
Let US be reasonable, let us be lust, let MS |
honest When we propose liberty for on
selves let us be willing to grant il to all
when We talk of rights, do not forget til,
0h,ers should have them likewise.

THE MAINE ELECTION took place on Mon
day. The influence Of the recent usurpa-
tons by johnson had not reached the peo-
pie, and the dividing issues were so purely
local as to excite little interest, except in the
instance of the stringent liquor law, which,
being passed by the Republicans, carried
many votes of drinking men in that party
over 10 the Opposition.
The result is that the vote is much lighter
than usual General Chamberlain, Republi-
can, is reelected Governor, and the same
party have large majority in the Legisla
