1t is preposterous to believe that any
act which the Radicals pass for the recon-
struction of the Southern States can be
considered finality. We were told that
the SHERMAN bill was their ultimatum,
but subsequent Congressional action
proves how little dependence can be
placed upon that assertion. The bill
is about as binding upon those who
passed it as the Congressional resolu-
ton with regard to the object
OF the war, passed early in
the conflict, is now upon our legislators.
Within the last few days two or three
supplementary" measures have been
brought forward, one has been adopted,
and we will have the number increased,
if not in the present, ut any rate in some
future session. SUMMERS scheme, it is
truc. was voted down, but he is q per-
Sistent man, and will undoubtedly per-
severe until he gets some of his charac-
teristic crochets adopted. He is only
little in advance of some others of his
party, that is all.
1t would also appear, if some men,
bers of Congress are ohave their own
way, that when the States are admitted,
they are only to remain in the Union ON
suferance, liable at any time to be turn
ed ont, if they do not conduct them
selves in accordance with the desires
of the dominant party. In answer to
/. question put to Mr.. DRAKE, it ought
to be DGACo,) the new-tledged Senator
from Missouri, as to what should be
done if auy South, rn State, after it was
admitted, should adopt rira roee voting
for the ballot, which latter Mr.. ID. de-
sired to make compulsory, he replied
that he would be prepared to say that
the State should not have Senator or
Representative in Congress as long rs
if violated the Constitution it formed
undrr the Reconstruction bill. He
would turn them ont, he added "with-
out I moments hesitation" As long as
such views are cody put forward there
can be little hope of permanent pacifi-
cation-certainly not till the LeSisla-
tive halls are filled with statesmen in
stead Of fanatics, but when that day
will arrive God only knows.

Tale Of n Masquerade-A Mis-
chieVOuS Widow.

A masquerade would not be much of
an affair if there were not some ludic.
rous scenes attached to it, or connected
with it. Last evening that of the Music
al Society was no exception to the gen.
al rule, and any number of funny incl
dents transpired.
no person 1ailed to notice o cOnspic-
uous costume present, gentleman
dressed as q Spanish cavalier-a very
neat and tasty dress, set off upon well
built and athletic frame. The gentle
man, whom We call K, paid particular
indeed, most devoted attention to q
pink domino, enshrouding sylph-like
form, acting as her escort at all times,
and paying no attention, worth noticing,
to anybody else. In promenading or in
resting they were in earnest converse
tion, and the ladies, who could not
fail to notice them, thought he must
be q duck of fellow to pay so much
attention, while the gentlemen thought
she must be divine little angel to
listen so devotedly to all his soft things.
Perhaps both of them were just what
they had the credit of being.
The cavalier was q legal gentleman
of our city, and pink domino was-no
matter who just now.
The gentleman is married and has q
small family. He loves his wife, but
people do whisper that sometimes
he loves other peoples just as much.
The cavalier proposed some time since
to 60 to the ball, but his wife insisted
that her health was not very good, and
as there would be something of a crowd
present she would not go-to her mas
auerades were very tedious affairs at
the best. That Y. was delighted with
the determination there is no doubt.
He did not say 30, however, but the day
his wife decided not to 60 he met in
company young and pretty widow,
and in the heat of the excitement he
asked her to accompany him to the
masquerade. The widow was possessed
of a bosom full of fun, and she consent
ed to 20. X. fitted her ont with q cos
tune and q pink domino, and as every
body saw, who noticed it, very pretty
and very expensive. Now, in conclu-
ding to 60, the widow had some object
in view, evidently, for yesterday, 50
runs the story, she saw \. go away from
home, when she sought the presence of
his wife and told her the whole story,
and in conclusion she said:
Now, you've heard the whole thing.
That good for nothing husband of yours
has been paying too many attentions
to me of late, and do not like it. II
you are woman Of spirit you will play

Tennessee Troubles.

The Congressional resolution, instruct
ing the Secretary of War to furnish the
State Government Of Tennessee with
arms and equipments sufficient for twen-
ty-fve hundred militia, is quite sug-
cestivs when considered in connection
with the reconstruction question.
BEowNIow has declared his determine
ton to employ these two and half
thousand militia as an adjunct to his
Government, and has Threatened to
make il hot" for those who have the
hardihood to oppose his management.
Such Governor, with such means of
mischief. will hardly fail to prodnce Sc
rious trouble. 1t is singular fact that
Tennessee, which Congress singled out
as special pet and favorite, has been
tho scene of more disorder and difficulty
since the war ended, than have occurred
in all the excluded States. While the
latter have been comparatively quiet
aud orderly, Tennessee has been con-
stantly agitated by local disturbances.
Lawlessness has been carried to such an
extent that the condition Of things has
been akin to anarchy, and the prospect
for the future is far from encouraging.
The lesson which all this teaches is that
such political charlatans as BRowNLow
should not be entrusted with the rs-
sponsible duty of leading the Southern
States through the mazes of reconstruc-
ton, and that Southern society will be
more orderly under fetal ostracism from
the Union, than when admitted to rep
resentation under the conditions of dis
reimbursement and persecution that
prevail in Tennessee.

From the New York Tribune
Treason In Civil War.

Can Government, which, after long
and arduous struggle, put down an organ
lied and formidable rebellion, proceed to
try and punish it's defeated adversaries as
traitors
The question is readily answered in the
Affirmative by ignorance and passion-per-
haps also by wisdom and calm Judgment.
Let us inquire aud consider.
Unques tionably government may re-
fuse from the outset to recognize its do
nestle foes as billigerents, engaged in law
full war. 1t may say to them. as Maxi
milan did to his Mexican adversaries -
You are not warriors, but banditti-bri-
gands, robbers-whom, if captured by my
armies, shall treat as fclons." But this is
a two-edged sword, as Max, is very likely
to discover. The government which
treats its enomies as felons must expect
to have i.s adherents so treated By those
adversaries to have its soldiers shot or
hung when it captures. Whatever rule
it acts upon will surely work both ways.
On the main question: the doctrine gen
orally held by American statesmen and
publicists prior to 1860, will be found sue
cinctly set forth by Daniel Webster,
in his address on laying the cornerstone
of Bunker Hill Monument (June II,
1920 wherein he says OF the consequen-
ces of that memorable combat
'The battle Of Bunker Hill was attended
with the most important effects beyond its
Immediate result rs military engagement
II created OF once a state of open public war
There could now be no longer Il question of
nrocee,ling against individuals, as guilty of
treason or rebellion. That fearful crisis was
past.
The appeal now lay To the sword and the
only question was whether the spirit and the
resources of the people would hold out till
the object should he accomplished"
Bear in mind that our fathers had not
even declared their independence on the
18th of June, l775, when they fought
at Bunker Hill-nay, they had not def
nitely resolved on separation from the
mother country. In the eye of British
law-and of the law Of nations, for that
matter-they were simply rebels, resisting
the authority and army of their legitimate
king. Yet M. Webster holds that the
max ed fact that they resisted in battle ar
