But General Hayes says the question of
reconstruction is the great issue; but what
kind of reconstruction does he propose a.
the great issue? If he had said that it
would be of the greatest benefit to the
country to have restored UDion-that the
benefit of that would outweigh the benefit
Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1867-09-20


Mr.. Stevens to Colonel Shock, to which 1
wish to refer particularly, and to ask Cen
eral Hayes a question upon it. Mr.. Ste
vens, if apprehend his meaning correct
ly, afirms, as fact, that at the Radical
members of Congress, of whom General
Hayes was one, agreed that they were act
ing wholly outside of the Constitution, else
their whole work of reconstruction was
usurpation. Mr.. Stevens language is
this:
s'Some of the members of the Senate
seemed to doubt their power under the
Constitution which they had just repudi-
ated, and wholly outside of which all
agreed that we were acting, else our whole
work of reconstruction was usurpation."
Now, General Hayes and every other
member of Congress took solemn oath to
support the Constitution, and he owes it
to himself to let the people of Ohio know
whether it IS true, as asserted by Mr.. Ste
vens, that the Radical members of Con-
gress repudiated the instrument they had
sworn to support, and 'all agreed" that
they were acting "wholly outside" of it.
Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1867-09-20

Now, my friends, L said to you, a while
ago, that l thought my friend General
Hayes was disposed to give the go-by to the
constitutional amendment-the negro suf-
frage amendment-to let negroes vote, and
to put them above white men in this State.
1t is true that, in his Sidney speech, he
comes out squarely and hatly for the
amendment, negro and all. But he puts it
at the last end of his speech, and closes
with an appeal, which, briefly stated, is,
'stick to the party, whether you like the
amendment or not" But what is more
significant, is the paramount importance
which he gives to the reconstruction
scheme. He says:
"This investigation of two or three of the
leading questions presented to the people
at the beginning of the canvass by the ad-
vocates of the peace party of Ohio, is,
think, sufficient to warrant me in saying
that all of the side issues presented are
merely urged on the people to withdraw
their minds from the great main issue which
ought to engage the attention of the Amer
lean nation. What is that great issue? 1t
is reconstruction. That is the main ques-
tion before us, and until it is settled. and
settled rightly, all other issues sink into in
Significance in com parison with it.''
That is what he says is the great issue.
.All others sink into insignifcance in COM
parison." This great debt, this great taxa
tion, sink into insignificance. compared
with this great question OF reconstruction.

If the Radicals believe this ~ azure will
give them back the State til y will vote
for Il ,aimcst to a man; the whole Eastern
Shore will vote with them, and all slave
holders on tho Western Shore, with their
friends and relatives will vote for the same.
Then there is large number Of persons
who believe it was not oaly Illegally and
consitutionally. but. also, morally wrong
to take away this slave property without
compensation, who will also roto for the
)arty that will pay for this property. II
the Radicals place themselves upon this
platform as party Measure. which they
are about to do, they will not be able to
carry Baltimore city, they can carry Roarly
every county in the State, beyond a doubt
Thsy will do any thing to break up 'h,

Our Country and the Negro


The preservation of the Uniuu and the
salvation ofthc Negro de- pend upon the
latteribeing put back to his master. Nothing
short of this will save the Union and the
negro. The Negro is az element of weak
ness to the South. and she Ravar can
prosecute successful rebellion with this
elemenHof weakness in her milst. Suppose
In the late Rebellion there had boen in
the soath four millions of whites in the
place of that number. Of Negroes: The
whites would have boon friends. the Ne
groes were enemies, which would have
made difference of eightmillions. Would
not the result have been different from
what it yas3 The Negro as Freedman
will soon die out in the south, and his
place will be filed by whites. and just in
proportion as the south fills up with whites
will the Union be endan gerei. The
products of the south are so dissimilar to
those of tho North that tho two sections
can never live in peace under the same
national laws. Hence the South will
always desire her independence. If the
Negro is preserved in the south emigration
will not go there, and just in proportion
rs the Negro increases in numbers will
tho south become physically weaker.
Preserve the Negro, and keep him in tho
South and you preserve the Union; lot
him die out, and emigrate. aud dissolu-
tionof this Union some day is just as GER
tain to take place as day follows night.

A Pious Fraud.

Mr.. EDIroa: During the session of ths
Teachers Association ip your town last
week petition to tho Legislature against
the modification of the Sunday law was
introduced, and an attempt made to COM
nit the Association to this law, by the pas
sage of resolution authorizing the Off
GERS to sign it in the name of the Associa-
iion. This not meeting with favor it was
abandoned. The petition was neverthe-
less circulated and received the signature
of some of the Teachers TO this have
no OH ,ction to urge. But here common
ced the Pious fraud. The petition repre-
tented that the signers were Teachers of
Public Schools of Washington county,
whereas it received the names of parties
in no wise connected with the Public
Schools I make this statement merely to
show the public the false pretenses praoti-
scd by these sticklors for morality, and
that the Legislature may know the fraud
attempted to he praotised upon them.
have no idea, however, that petition from
the teachers of the county would have
greater weight with the Legislature than
If merely signed as private citizens.
