Tennessee has just given an illustration
of the insincerity Of that kind of Radical
ism which finds favor with Gov. Brown.
low. A resolution was introduced re-
citing that Speaker Senter had given aid
and comfort to the rebellion, establishing
the grave imputation by reference
to facts and dates, and proposing to elect
new presiding officer in as much as he
was disqualified by the fourteenth amend
ment of the Constitution Of the United
States. That resolution was indefinitely
postponed, one of the strongest argu-
ments in favor Of such action being that
the. amendment having been ratified after
Mr.. Senter had been elected Senator and
then Speaker, it could not by retroaction
apply to him. But an act of the Legis-
lature, which is held to be an amendment
of the State Constitution, is held to retro
act so as to exclude about eighty thou
sand white citizens, embracing the intel
ligent and tax>psying portion of the popu-
lation, from the ballot-box or holding
office. If an amendment Of the Con-
stitution of the Unit cd States, pre-
scribing penalties for giving aid and
comfort to the public enemy, cannot
be so construed as to disqualify
a citizen of Tennessee for an office to
which he was elected before the ratifca-
tio1 Of that amendment, how can an act o.

ment to the State constitution, be made
to disfranchisc citizens for giving like
aid and comfort before that amendment
was proposed or consummated This il
one Of the curiosities ofRadicalism which
all the rawlings of Gov. BrOwnlow viii
fail to explain. But there is a proSpec
that this condition of affairs is approach
ing an end, even should the Legislator,
persist in its refusal to do justice to tn,
DISTINGUISHED citizens of the State by re
storing to them the rights of which they
have been unjustly deprived. 1t seem!
to be generally understood that an amend
ment to the constitution of the United
States will be offered in Congress at it
meeting in December, establishing uni
versal suffrage throughout the United
States. This amendment is to be pushe,
through Congress, and no doubt is enter
tanned that it will be ratified by NOR
than three. fourths Of the Legislatures c
the States. Should this be done, as nov
seems probable, it will at once reliev

RRYERnY InHNNON.

The super loyalty Of the country, as
reflected through the Radical press, is in
a state of mind about Reyerdy johnson,
the Minister TO England. His recall is
demanded, and if his Presidential name
sake doesn't do it, it is threatened to
to make him the subject of the first Of
fetal decapitation under Gen. Grant.
His offense is, that being sent on an
embassy Of great moment requiring ju-
dicious and delicate diplomacy, he con-
ducts himself with the amenity ard
courtesy characteristic Of a gentleman,
and calculated to impress the government
and the people to whom he is commits
stoned with the impression that he re-
presents a nation of civilized people and
not a community of overbearing ruffians.
Reverdy johnson is a statesman Of
great experience, and a lawyer ofeminent
abilities, and received his breeding
and education in the best circles in
the country. He did not deem it neceS-
sary or quite proper, to stride up to Lon
don, ring the bell at buckingham Palace,
or wherever Victoria was TO be found,
present his bill Of damages, demand its
settlement, and in the event Of hositancy
on the part Of the lady, threaten to fasten
the talonS OF the American eagle in the
name Of the British lion and walloP the
breath out ofhim in three minutes by the
clock on st. Paul's. In other words, Mr..
johnson understands his business, and
so far as we can sec, has gone about it
properly.
The fuss made about his gracious post
prandiaI speeches, and the filings at the
manner in which he has receYied the at
tnetions Of the high officials Of Great
Britain, is disgusting, but cmincntly be-
fitting the press Of the party that ranks
Butler, Logan, Sickles ana Fitzpatrick as
pinks Of propriety, and representative
statesmen, soldiers and.diplomatists.

EVEN THE PRESS AND TIMES IS
DISGUSTED.


The Nashville Press and Times is
very much elated with the prospect that
Congress will pass a law amending the
Constitution Of the United States pro-
viding for "the establishment Of uniform,
impartial suffrage in all the States"
That paper has seen the evil effects Of
disfranchisement in this State, and it
cohfesses that thousands of legal voters
now citizens Of Ohio and Missouri, may
forfeit their suffrage permanently by re-
moving to Tennessee "and experience
has fully demonstrated that no provision
can prevent a law of disfranchisement
from representing, in a considerable de-
gree, the private partialities and dislikes
Of registration officers" This is a con-
fession we hardly expected from the
Press and Times, but it should surprise
no body, for even that paper is becoming
disguised with the outrageous manner in
which this instrument Of despotism Is
welded in this State. 1t is the literal
truth that legal voters in other States
may forfeit their suffrage By removing to
Tennessee, and this would certainly be
the case if they were Democrats. Nc
man, however bitter and prosecuting a
'Rcbel" he may have been, who estab-
fishes the fact 10 the satisfaction o.
the Register that he is now a Radl'
cal, experiences any difficulty IL
getting a certificate to vote, while il
is next to impossible for man who is
not Radical, however clear his ''UniOn'
record, to get a certificate. 1t is this
partisan character Of the administration
of the franchise law that has disguised
even the Press and Times, and caused
it to hail with rejoicing the prospect that
an amendment TO the Constitution Of thu
United States will be proposed and rati
ed, establishing uniform, impartial SUI
fTage in all the States"

LET THE CALLED JADE VINCE
OUR wITEIERs ARE UNwRUNG.''


Governor Brownlow has heretofore
exhibited a strange callousness to the
criticisms on his proscrptivo course
toward his political opponents, who have
been disfranchised because they oppose
him. The Legislature was about to as
semble with the notes Of Republican
victory vibrating through the land, and
the Governor fearing that victory would
mollify the members toward the dis'ran-
chised, flew into print to urge them
not to be generous and Just on the false
plea of magnanimity, and to make sure
that the members would understand that
this was the wish Of the Governor
he appended to the article his sigma
ture OF Senior Editor" The Governor
winces under our criticism Of this indeli-
cate display Of bitter, unrelenting feeling
toward the disfranchisel citizens Of this
State. 1t is an evidence that he at last
realises the enormity ofhis ofiense against
right and deccncy when he attempts to
Justify it by such frantic cbullitions as
this:
"The UNION AND ANEGICAN says
we are not surprised that he loursell)
has thrown the might Of his influence
against restoring to the great, body Of
the white mon the rights of which they
have been uniustIy deprived I'm
Justly deprived Poor inuocentS How
terrible 10 be 'uujuSfig deDrirC7' Of
their rights: they never renowned their
allegiance to the Government il would
seem. Never did they Try to pull
down the pillars cd the republic. their
hands have no loyal blood dripping
from them: they never slc,c the public
property; they did not use the State
funds to further their wicked schemes o.
rebellion: they had no hand in peoping
the national cemeteries OF Stone River,
Chattanooga, Knoxville and elsewhere:
they have no part in the ku-kluN out
RACES which have spread insecurity, ter
TOT and death over many counties IN the
State during the last twelve months"
These sound more like the rawlings Of a
man tortured with the rricking OF
guilty conscience, than the reasons of
Governor for the hitH that is in him.
The truth is, he feels that the sentiment
Of an enlightened nation condemns the
stringent exclusion from the hallot-boX
Of the best citizens of the State, simply
because they are not Radicals, and
hence he raves in the manner We have
quoted. This is the way he meets
great issue, a question Of right and
Justice. These disiranchisod citizens
pay more than thrce-fourthS--it has
been estimated that they pay nine
tcnths-of the taxes collected to support
the State government, but are denied any
participation in the control Of the govern
ment They are required to perform the
duties Of citizens, as paying taxes, serving

It is curious incident in the history
of this State that so extensively has Gov
Brownlow disregarded the requirement.
of the Constitution that Judges shall he
elected by the qualified voters, that the
matter has elected the attention of the
Legislature. 1t is scathing rebuke of
Gov. Brownlow, and if he is not lost to
all sense of shame, he must so regard it,
that members of his own party have
been compelled to remind him of his duty
and to rebuke his usurpations in so pub
lie a manner. Tho offering of the bill
shows the terrible character Of the des.
potism that has been inaugurated in Ten~
nessee under the Brownlow rule.
