This precedent is of fearful import.
We are told that the Constitution OF
the United States has been changed,
in respect to the representative basis
of the States that the rule which we
received from its trainers, allowing
the States to be represented in pro
portion TO the relative number of thoir
inhabitants, has been modified by tho
introduction Of new principle, which
reduces the representative basis OF
any State that will not allow the right
Of suffrage TO every adult male, Of any
race, color or previous condition.
We know that some States can limit
and regulate suffrage and not lose any
part Of their Congressional represon-
tation, and that others cannot do so.
When we come TO inquire how this
change in n uniform and equitable
rule of tho Constitution has boen
brought about, we find that il has
been effected by Legislatures erected
by direct Congressional interference
and the exercise of military power,
and that the primary object of that
interference was TO compel the adop-
ton of this amendment, in order TO
make the nnrestrained suffrage of ne
groes as perpetual as Federal power
can make Il.
THE FOURTEENTH AMENDMENT OPENS
THE DOOR TO FURTHER CHANGES ron
PARTY PURPOSES.
II, therefore, this amendment is a
valid part of the Constitution, the
precedent has put the Constitution at
all times within tho power Of Con-
gress to bring about any changes in
Il that political party may choose
to propose. For in what respect were
the Southern States "rebep States in
March, 1867, or in what sense could
they be so denominated that might
not be made applicable at any time TO
any State Of the Union Every
Southern army had laid down It's

and the public history of the times,
were followed up in the supplemental

EV We confess we were somewhat
surprised at the way Mr.. Boutwell, spoke
OF the PROSTITUTION in Congress on Fri.
day. He declared he had heard, with
great pain, the charges Of Congressional
usurpation, whereas, (said he, nothing
has been done except what was authoriZ
ed by the Constitution In other parts
OF his speech he spoke. with respect of a
document which certainly the country
has had reason to believe was either 10.
nored or treated with scorn by Congress.
1t Is Our own opinion, after all that has
been said and done, that the Constitution
has hold on the heart of the American
people next to that of the Sacred Writ
1ngs. 1t is our opinion that the Radicals
never made greater mistake than when
they allowed their recognized Leader to
proclaim that in this matterof rec onstruc,
tioll and nilitaay government they were
acting asoutsidep 6fthe CONSTITUTION. If
-theyeyer did make greater mistake. it
was when their revolutionary action made
Mr.. Stevens declaration possible We
do not believe that the deep sentiment of
reverence for the Constitution which has
been inculcated for three generations, and
has grown with the very fibre and nature
OF the American people, can be oDiterat
ell in short time, or by the blasts Of
such leaders as Congress now follows.
And when this sentiment .rcassert, its
strength, rs it assnredy will do, after it
is aroused by the assaults of its enemies.
twill make itsclfjfelt in away no. iillels
to be forgotten by its assailants.
1t is utterly impossible to vindicatc.
upon any sound and accepted theory Of.
Republican Government, the policy Of.
giving universal sufrageto the four hill .

1t is denied to the whites who live apouo
them; and to our minds It'll. equally clear
that such policy will not b, supported
