ANOBJECTION.

A correspondent of the Greenville Nea0
Era, who signs himself ga Minister, "
has discovered that the new Constitution
prohibits ministers of the gospel being
members of the Legislature, and he ex-
claims
sBehold the scenel Fifty-five lawyers
of this State in council assembled plotting
against the ministry and the Christian re-
ligion. Put the Bible out of our schools
and the ministry out of citizenship, then
ungodliness can have clear track. This
proscriptive spirit is degrading to the min
istry as q class and dishonoring to the
Christian church"
An effort is also being made by Radi-
Gals to show that the new Constitution
proscribes Universalists. If GA Minister"
and other Radical grumblers had gone
back to the Constitution adopted in 1896,
they would have found that the eighth
article contained the following sections /:
1. Whereas, ministers of the gospel
are, by their profession, dedicated to God
and the care of souls, and ought not to be
diverted from the great duties of their
functions; therefore, no minister of the
gospel, or priest of any denomination
whatever, shall be eligible to seat in
either house of the Legislature.
2. No person who denies the being of
God, or a future state of rewards and pun
ishments, shall hold any office in the civil
department of this State.
Congress admitted Tennessee into the
Union in 1896 with these sections in the
constitution. They were copied into the
constitution of 1884, (see article 81 and
into the new constitution, now before the
people for ratification, (see article 81
without alteration or the addition of a
word. They have constituted part of
the organic law of the State for nearly
three-quarters of a century. The constl-
tuition which the Radicals profess to ven
crate, contained these sections, and their
mass meeting, by courtesy called a con-
vention, in 1865, did not consider them
at all Objectionable.

muaT IL NEEnEnn

The Huntsville Independent of thu
18th inst. has the following:
awe learn that George P. Charlton, s
former Probate Judge of Morgan county,
was shot down and instantly killed, al
Decatur on Friday morning about
O'Clock, by unknown parties. In com
many with his son-in-law, he was return
ing from Nashville. The shot was through
his heart. We have no particulars.
owe learn also that Mr.. Robert Vest,
of Somerville, has been missing for two
whole days, and fears are entertained
that he has been killed. Parties were out
hunting him, and while thus engaged, one
of them, Mr.. England, was shot by par,
ties unknown"
This is a specimen of the reports that
come from Alabama, but we hear of nc
movement to have Congress re-reconstruct
that State, nor have we even heard of the
Governor calling on the President fol
troops TO aid in preserving the peace and
enforcing the laws The reason why
there has been no movement looking to
the reconstruction of the State is, the
Radicals have the Legislature, the Gov
ernor and other State officers, and pretty
much all the county officers Throughout
the State. If the Radicals had lost con-
troll there as they have in Tennessee, a
'Ioyal" howl would go up to Washington
which would rejoice the hearts of Ben.
Butler and Horace Maynard.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1870-03-22
WHERE RECONSTRUCTION as
NEEnEn


We have all along insisted that recon
struction is needed far mere in the Radi-
Called Southern States than in those
where the Conservatives have some in
fiuence in the affairs Of State. As evil
dence of the correctness of this opinion
we refer to the following A Repubh-
can, who is travelling in the South, does
not like the look of things in Georgia and
Florida, and writes very gloomily bis
opinion of the condition as it appears to
him. The Springfield, Massachusetts,
Republican (Rad.) in publishing the
views of the writer, says he is an intelli-
gent Northern man of its acquaintance.
He first speaks of Georgia, saying that lit
is about as near bankruptcy and ruin as
any State in the Union and if something
is not soon done the whole thing will fall.
Bullock is the most INSCRIPTIONS man IN
the South. He first came to Georgia as
Adams Express agent at Augusta, and to-
day, besides being paid his salary OF
81, 600 as Governor of the State, he re-
ceives a salary as express agent, and the
Adams Express Company controls the
State. Bullock would, to-day,
if his name were before the people, be de-
feated by seventy-five thousand majority.
AS to the LegisIature-or agency, as 1t is
called here-the least said about it the
better. Men were disfranchised, or rather
declared ineligible, whose sin was being a
supervisor or butcher during the rebellion.
| On the reorganization of that body, Bull
| lock took two men and made them Speak
crs of the Senate and the House, who had
| no right in either body. Their word is
law; whenever they see fit to sdjourn, SO
mote it be. No appeal is heard, and no
motion contrary to the opinion of the
presiding officers viii be received. These
rascals are paid 50 day, with no limit to
the session. Such is the character OF
one of the Legislatures whose ratification
| of the Fifteenth Amendment is required
| in the count to fasten that fraud and out
rage on the American people.
And of another ratifying State, the
writer declares that, SIN Florida, the con-
| dition of affairs is even worse than in
Georgia. Everybody in high official po-
sition goes in for robbing the people.
He speaks of the purchasable character
of the Legislature, the corruption of the
Governor, and of the feeling of the white
citizens. OF the last he says: ''The feel
ing against the North is very bitter, and
the Southern people are only waiting un'
til they can get into power, and then won't
they make things fly. Every dollar ii
State bonds that has been issued will be
repudiated. Warn the people against pur'
chasing them"

RECONSTRUCTIO AND REPUB-
LICANISII.

We publish to-day very sensible let
ter from a Radical source on the effect of
reconstruction on Republicanism. The
letter is from Don Plat to the Cincinnati
Commercial, and written from Washing
ton. D. P. very appropriately styles
onalreconstruction ''the hopeless
legislation Of vengeance" He roundly
asserts that "the disloyal element of the
South can't be annihilated in that way.
d. P. is right. There is not man in all
the South that does not know that Repub-
licanism has lost tens of thousands of
supporters in the Southern States by the
extremely bitter and proscriptive policy
of the Brownlow class of politicians.
Some of the most cordial of the present
Conservatives have been actually driven
from the Republican ranks by the intol-
erance of their former party associates.
This very day the same cause is having
the same effect. 1t can easily be ascer-
tanned by brief conversation with any
Republican who is not an Office-seeker.
Republicans, who are Republicans from
principle, can see no consistency or party
fealty in supporting political organiza-
ton whose leaders get into Office upon a
party platform, and then use their power
to Cypress, annoy, harrass, and agitate.
The Republicans who are weakening in
their allegiance to such party are
those who desire peace and quiet, because
that therefrom and thereby come indivi-
dual prosperity and happiness. If the
Republicans of the North wish to confine
their party in the South exclusively to
office seekers, then they are pursuing the
proper course for speedy and certain sue
cess. But if they wish their party to take
root among the people, and grow and ex-
pand, and become respectable in numbers
and influence, let them reverse their re-
construction engine, and treat the people
of the South as reasonable human beings,
as friends.

SOME careful person proposes for
adoption into the new Illinois Constitu-
ton declaration that 'fIllinois shall for
ever be and remain one of the United
States" 1t is to be hoped, says the Gin
cinnati Enquirer, so important provis-
ion will not be omitted; but, in view of
the promiscuous manner in which half a
dozen States have been alternately dragged
into and kicked out of the Union for three
or four years past, would it not be well to
qualify it with the addition, Except when
otherwise ordained by Congress 2" 1t is
always best, in documents of that char
acter, TO be explicit, and provide for all
emergencies.

THE news from New York shows that
the financial troubles are telling heavily
ON the business of that city. Our dis
patches report that the numerous stores
to rent on broadway and other desirable
localities are evidence of the depression in
general trade. Over one hundred thousand
men are out of employment in that city,
and the employed have been compelled to
submit TO heavy reductions in the prices
they are paid for their labor.

THE CoEORED PIzESENEHEz Emf |
Sunday morning We published The docu-
mens which committee of negroes had
presented to the Reconstruction Commit
tee at Washington, setting forth the alleged
grievances of the negro population, and
asking in their behalf the Interference of
the Federal Government, The allegations.
in that document were said TO be founded
on, among other things, 'ahe testimony
of hundreds of sufferers. We give the
following as specimen extract;
The cities of Nashville, Memphis and
Chattanooga are oyerrun with paupers.
AbIe-bodied men and women who have
been driven from their homes in the coun-
try to seek protection of the city, and
consequently are forced to beg, steal, or
starve 1t is a common every day or
night occurrence that some of our people
are, without just cause, without excuse,
without preyocation, put to death
| in the most torturing manner.
Shooting, whipping, burning, and
| indeed we might say that the dark and
damning catalogue of inquisitorial punish
ments has been resurrected from its long
| seen in the bosom of the dark ages OF
| Papist prosecutions and exhausted upon
| the weak and unprotected people in the
State. The parties who commit these
crimes are well known in the communities
In which they live, and in which these
crimes have been committed, and many OF
them are known to us and could be
! be brought to Justice if the laws were en-
forced. They even boast themselves OF
the slaughter of innocent men and women.
Our Criminal Court being now in ses-
sion, the Grand Jury saw the document to
which we refer published in the columns
of the UNION AND AMERICAN, and they
being sworn to inquire and true present
ment make of alleged crimes, yesterday
had subp@nas issued for the signers of
that document. Geo. Carter, the Chair
man. and Randall Brown, were the only
two members of the Committee in the
city, the others being stiil in Washington.
They were brought before the Grand Jury
and closely Intercepted as to offenses
which their communication had charged
to be committed by parties known to them.
But they stated under oath that they knew
nothing of their own knowledge; that
they had never seen any Ku-Klux or per-
sons in disguise, and that neither of them
had been maItreated or in any way inter
fered with. Hence the Grand Jury OF
the county, although solicitous of having
the law enforced and of bringing the guilty
to justice, were utterly made to find
suspicion upon which to base a present
ment or true bill.
1t will be seen from this that the Chair.
man of this Committee of Crimes and one
of its principal members themselves es
tablish the absolute absurdity of the pre-
fessed reasons for reconstruction. To this
complexion must it come at last.

II is stated there are more Israelites in
New York city than in the Holy Land, or
in all Syria. There are about seventy
thousand in that city, and this is probably
a larger number than now inhabit the
Scripture lands above mentioned. OF that
seventy thousand there are not one thou
sand that can justly be called poor, while
the majority are heavy owners of real es.
tate, and also among the most active and
enterprising of our commercial people.

THE RESOLUTION OF CEnSURE

THE RESOLUTION OF CENSU RE.
To expel member of the House of
Representatives requires a twO-hirds
vote in favor. The resolution of Gen.
Logan TO expel ROderick Random Butler
lacked fourteen votes of receiving the
necessary two-thirds, one hundred and
two voting for, and sixty-eight voting
against expulsion. After the defeat of
this resolution, Mr.. Stoughton, Radical,
of Michigan, a member of the Military
Committee, offered the following resolu-
ton. which received the vote of every
member present:
Resolved, That this House declares its
condemnation of the action of Hon.
Roderick r. Butler, a Representative from
the first district of Tennessee, in nomi
mating Augustus c. Tyler, who was not
an actual resident of his district, as a
cadet at the Military Academy at West
Point, and subsequently receiving money
from the father of .saId cadet, to be used
for political purposes in Tennessee, as an
unauthorized and dangerous practice, and
he is hereby censured therefor.
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1870-03-22

The Cincinnati Commercial says :
Congress is disgraced by the failure to
expel the scalawag Butler, of Tennessee,
whose whining and importantly ought to
have made votes against him. The fact
is quite a number of the honorable menu
bers were frightened by the developments
as TO the cadetships, and intensely anx-
ious to put stop to investigation. 1t has
even been rumored that the committee OF
investigation was itself in condition that
demanded investigation"
