THE STANDING ARMY SCHEME.

The ordinance on the subject of the
Militia, is really in disguise a scheme
for . grand military establishment to
over awe the people and hold them in
bondage to the despotism which the
Black and Tans have devised. They
have conjectured rightly that the
white population Of the State, will be
restive under a government which de-
prives numerous classes of the Ordina-
ry privileges of citizenship, and es-
tablishes over them the dominion of an
inferior, Ignorant race, which in all the
history Of past ages, has never before
been invested with the responsibility
Of ruling the white race; and to guard
against the contingency of resistance
to the acursed government which they
propose to institute, this standing
army scheme has been framed. 1t is
designed to be composed mainly Of
negroes, and Differed by them and by
'loyaF' adventurers.
Section one provides that all able
bodied male citizens between eighteen
and forty five years shall be liable to
military duty SIN such manner as the
legislature may prescribe' DC. The
second and third sections require that
the legislature shall provide for the
organizing, ,arming, equipping and pay
ing of the militia, and shall pass such
liars as sciH ''immaediately'' make it
"efectivs." The fourth section re-
quires that the officers shall be ap-
pointed by the Governor, and shall be
chosen Tor their military knowledge,
their experience in arms and for
their 'cfdelity and loyalty" every
body knows what this means in the
Radical vocabulary
1t is plainly to be seen, that under
this authority, it is contemplated by
the Mongrel oligarchs, to establish a
military system upon grand
and expensive scale. 1t is to
be organized Immediately" and to
be made effective" Under the plen-
ary powers conferred upon the Legis-
lature, it is designed that that body,
while enrolling all within the ages
prescribed will compose the effective
force largely of colored troops on the
pretence of their "loyalty'' and of the
disloyalty of the whites who are to be
held in subjection. And thus formed,
they are to be differed by the agents
Of Radicalism under appointment Of a
Radical Governor. 1t was apprehen-
ded that if the elective system in
vogue in the Northern States, and
hitherto in force in the South, should
be adopted, in the localities where the
white population is predominant,
persons would be chosen as officers
who are not hostile to that class.
That we are right in our conjectures
Of the intent of the trainers Of this
proposed law, is amply attested not
only by the terms of the law itself
but by the spirit which has character
ized all their legislation, in reference
to. the white population. And it is
further confirmed by the example Of
the Radical tyrants in Tennessee, of
which this scheme is an exact imita-
ton.
What this military establishment
will cost the people of the State, it is
impossible to compute. The sum
which will be wrung from their hard
earnings will necessarily be immense.
Its contrivers care nothing for that.
They are penniless adventures, with
out a local habitation Contributing
nothing to the public treasury, they
are in search only of pelf and power.
