this is the q lidation, and can
not disguise our abh6reAee OF usurPa-
tions. and love Of liberty and ourcoun-
try. For this the south is subjected,
and a policy inaugurated which
threatens the liberties Of north
ern quite as much as Of south
EN- States. Mr.. Lincoln's policy
was 10 ~conciliate, to forgive, and to
act with magnanimity. But ms
mower and influence is no more. Grant
was for peace, but he is in ike condi-
ton. He was for amnesty, but now
he dare not grant it; and when it
legally exists and was proclaimed by
his predecessor, he dare not enforce it
through the courts. Indeed, Grant is
the first and only cypher which ever
oeeupied the Presidential chair. He
became President by being appointed
over better men for General, because
war was then more the statesmel's
than the soldiers game, and he was
supposed to be little in the way for
the Presidency. And if he is ever
king it will be from good luck,
begotten of the same con-
tempt. The M0rtons and But
lers and Schencks control him &C
cording to their will, and hence
he cannot execute his Own wishes, II
he was honest when he said "Let US
have peace" And so universal am
nesty cannot be had; and there Is a
cIsss of snen in the South which IS,
above all others, distinguished for tai
euts and a%zsfaT ard seeial virtues
which is tfSe kept forever from the
exercise ofthe rights of citizens. They
were rebels,, differing from Others only
in the TACT that their abilities gave
them greaterProminence than others.
But amnesty TO them Grant dare not
declsrs, and the Congress at the best
is notIikely-to concede, nOtwithstand-
ing large number Of leading Repub-
lican journals advocate universal am
nestv. such as the Tribune, the Times,
the Herald and the SIN, and larger
numbers, If not a majority Of fair
minded Republicans throughout the
North. Nothing is TO be expect
ed from the present Congress.
On the contrary, what is to be
expected is a bin to enforce the fiji
teenth amendment, martial law, and
a final destruction Of State rights.
The country cries for amnesty, peace
and free government, but we have
uefther-oniy the sword. Amnesty
was promised o. the surrender, but
these Congressional autOcrats have
broken the national faith. The issue
