Extracts from the address Of W. W. HOLDEN
to the people of North Carolina, September
10Th, 1866:
The Union of the States must be restor-
ed at all hazards and on the best terms that
can be obtained, and the plan of the Presi-
dent having failed through the treachery
and selfshness of secession politicians, what
now remains to be done2
There are but two plans before the coun-
try--the Executive plan, and that of the
Congress or law-making power. The Presi-
dents plan provides, first, that the States
exist as States, though by rebellion they had
lost their governments; secondly, that sla-
very must be formally abolished by an
amendment to the federal Constitution
thirdly, that the right of secession must be
abandoned; fourthly, that the rebel debt
must be repudiated, and, as matter Of
course, the national debt must be paid
filthy, that loyal persons only should reor.
ganize governments for the States, and that
no members elect to Congress from the
Southern States should be presented for ad
mission, who cannot take the test-oath.
This is the Presidents plan. WHAT'S the
Congressional plant It IS as follows, in the
shape of a joint resolution, proposing amend
pelts to the federal Constitution:
The weekly North-Carolina standard. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 186?-1869, 1867-03-13

shall be restored, with the approval of Con-
gress." And in September, 1865, he also in
formed Gov. Marvin of Florida, that /" it
must be distinctly understood that the res
toration to which your proclamation refers,
will be subject to the decision of Congress"
repeat, the Congress has expressly and in
tentionally omitted to undo the work of the
President. The very able, enlightened, and
patriotic committee of that body, after the
fullest and most anxious elaboration, de-
termined that the present State governments,
organized by the President, should stand !;
but they recommended, as necessary to COM
plete the work of restoration, that the
amendments to the Constitution to which
have referred, should be adopted. If it be
said that the Southern States were excluded
from the Congress by which these amendments
were proposed, the answers, they had no voice
N proposing the most vital of all the amend
ments, the one which abolished slavery. IF
it be necessary further to amend the Consti-
tuition, as two-thirds of the American people
represented in Congress think tits, before the
Union can be re-established on just, solid,
and enduring basis, such amendments must
be proposed by Congress, for the President
has no such power under our form of gov
eminent.
There is, then, no material difference be-
tween the Presidents plan and that of Con-
gress. They are similar in principle, and
nearly the same in detail. If there be hui
initiation and degradation for the South in
the Congressional plan, there is humiliation
and degradation for the South in the Presi-
dents plan. Even the Presidents plan can
not be carried into effect without the CON
sent of Congress; and if one man can require
so much of the States lately in rebellion, can
not the Congress- representing so many mil.
lions of loyal people, require little more

jority.
But we are not without light on this sub
ject from President johnson himself. In his
interview with Mr.. Stearns, of Boston, in o.
tober last, he said:
"Many years ago moved in the Legislature of
Tennessee that the superintendent of representa-.
tives to Congress from that State should be by
qualified voters. The apportionment is now fixed
until 1879; before that time we might change the
basis of representation from population to 1uali-
fled voters, North as well as South, and in due
course of time the States, without to color,
might extend the elective franchise to all who
possessed certain mental, moral, or such other
qualifications as might be determined by an en-
lightened public judgment"
Mr.. johnson is, therefore, not only in fav-
or of this provision of the amendment bas-
ing members of Congress on qualified voters,
but he looks forward to the period when the
States will establish what is called impair
tial suffrage.
The proposed amendment also provides
that certain persons who had taken an oath
to support the Constitution of the United
States, and afterwards engaged in the rebel
lion, shall not hold any Office, civil or mill
tary, under the United States, or under any
State, unless the Congress by vote of two
thirds shall remove such disability.
What sound objection can there be to this

In Its nature, / reply that President johnson
has already gone much further in making
treason odious than this provision goes. he

not only deprived them, at his mere win and
