A Crime without Guilt.

A Crime without Guilt.
ThSApproach Of Monarchy and the
elanking chains of despotism are
startling the cars Of thoughtful men
everywhere. On Friday last by a
strict party vote CONGRESS EXcLUD-
sp VIRGINIA, MISSISSIPPI, and
TEXAS from the Union of States, and
declared it a crime to vote. or to
attempt to vote in either of these
Statos. in the ensuing presi Dental
election.
Every man knows that if these
States were ever out Of the Union
since their admission, it was since,
end not during the war, and not by
the strength of their armies, but by
the action of Congress. In fact un-
til the close Of the war the STATUS
Of Virginia as State was fully
recognized by every Department of
the Government. but by none more
cmphatically than by Congress
in permitting its Senators and Rep
rcsentatives to occupy seats in that
body until after the surrender Office.
That Congress has admitted any
Southern States into the Union is a
fiction. None ever got out. They
attempted and failed. All Congress
has done is to admit men who concur
with it, to seats IN that body, exclud-
ing those previously elected by the
entire people of those States.
Now what motive has that body
to admit such representatives from
the South Us concur with the ma
jority of that BODY, and exc Jude
States that it cannot control, even
making it grave crime to attempt
to vote therein.
1t is this, the unjust measures of
taxation and debt that curse. the
people in every az ,cation of life is
solely the work Of congress It's
members have been transformed in
the space. of seven brief years, on
their salaries of course, from beggars
TO millienaires. Their immense
wealth is largely invested in untax-
cd government bonds. 1t is their
interest TO perpetuate tho state Of
affairs that now exist.
This they propose to accomplish
by cnfranchising only those they can
control. THUS they hope to gain
from the. South, Congressman enough
to balance any gains the people of the
North may make against them, and
thus pcrpetuatc. the state of affairs
that has continued to prevail for the
past three years.
Promised reforms will not do;
with two-thirds majority in both
branches Of Congress they could give
VS. legislative reforms and lighter
iaxcs now, # they purpose doing SO
Ut all. :.
When anynumber Of States have
been takeu out Of the Union, whctl-
CT by rebels in arms. by.a Confcder-
ate, or Federal Congress, the fact
accomplished is revolution. Whether
done by one man or many the act is
treason. Whatever the avowed OBJ
,cct, the result is the Inauguration
ofa Government where faction pre-
walls against the people, because Of
their disfranchiscmcnt. Aud those
who do these things whether they be
ono or many are traitors.
The remedy lies in promptly aloet,
ing this revolutionary action Of Con.
gress with defiance, and fnced be
the revolution must be resisted.
What the Confederate, failed to &C
;complish by the stern arbiter Of
war must not be quietly effected by
. federal Congress. It is no crime

SENATOR SPENCER, FROM ALABAMA.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
observe several extracts In the HERALD referring
to George E. Spencer recently elected to the United
States senate from Alabama, in manner that may
give to strangers mistaken idea OF the man.
General Spencer, IL Is true, was sutler Of the First
Nebraska infantry. lie was afterwards one of the
proprietors Of the Tshamingo House In Corlnth,
Mss That ended his connection with the army as
a citizen. lie then became assistant adjutant gen.
eral and chief OF star to General Grenville NJ.
Dodge. He was afterwards colonel of the First
Alabama cavalry, and while in command OF that
regiment earned his title Of general. In 1865 Pres
dent Johnson appointed him collector OF Internal
revenue for the First district of Alabama. In 1867
he was appointed register In bankruptcy. You per-
ceive he was not a suer OF the common sort. Cen
eral spencer was formerly clerk of the Iowa Senate
lie Is native OF New York, a Of most popular
Manners of fine appearance and Of decided ability
as u business man. While his friends do not say that
he Is eminent as IN orator or statesman, they
feel very that his talents, which OF practi-
cal order, viii give him highly respectable position
in the Senate. The election OF carpetbaggers like
Spencer will not dctract much from the dignity OF
the senate. Some of the Old States seem To need
infusion OF just such carpet-bag blood.

Meeting Of Master Mason.


The master masons OF the city OF New York and Its
vicinity held another meeting at the Mechanics Ex
change No. 81 Liberty street, yesterday afternoon.
Mr.. J. T. Conover Chairman, having called the meet
ing to order, the Secretary read the minutes Of the
last meeting, which were duly approved Some ak
eight master masons reported having as many ten
hour men az work as they wanted and stated their
belief that there would be no difficulty in procuring
many more II necessary. One ''bossr announced
that he had seen with his own eyes 1.-TWO odd men
and one new boy at work on certain JOB this very
morning" from which cheering fact he argued that
the prospects OF the master masons better now
than Mt any time during the past three weeks. The
report that ten hour men did not work as satsiac-
torily as eight hour men was contradicted by one
member and more than corroboratcd by another who
admitted that the "bossesn who now employing
ten hour men find II necessary to superlntend the
work In persona fact which probably accounted for
the small attendance at the meeting. The "bosses'
complained bitterly Of the manner In which the eight
hour men sought TO ntimdate the others. and were
especially annoyed OF the doings OF one VINO was
described as commander OF the guerillas in the
service OF the Brickayers rnion" This individual Is
continually harasslng the enemy's working par
ties" and appears to be very Morgan In his way.
His last exploit was to make Daring raid on
'jobr and carry OF q ten hour conraband ulder The
very eyes Of the boss. The captves released on
giving their parole never TO take mp trowel against
the "Union,," and are provided for out OF the
strikers FUND.
A resolution was adopted providing that in future
the time occupied by the meeting should not exceed
thirty minutes, after which the meeting adjourned
