TWO AGAINST ONE.

From an editorial in the last issue of the
Radical organ in this city, the Tennessee
Tribune, it seems that the UNION AND
AMERICAN is TO be made the victim Of the
old game of ''TwO pluck one From that
article headed OUT OF EGYPT, we extract
the following:
Some months ago We called upon our
neighbOr of the Banner to come out Of the
Egyptian bondage under which he was
placed. We were convinced from Lis daily
utterances he was DESTROYS of breaking the
shackles that bound him to the Bourbon
Democracy; but our neighbOr of the UNION
AND AMERIr AN applied the lash Of party
when he saw he Bonner FESTIVE, and We
dPspaiTe for a time, fearing be was forever
Joined to the idols he had been worship
ping; but recent events have convinced US
that be has seeded. He no longer travels
in tin same road with the UNION AND
AMERICAN. The Bonner has switched of /:
he saw, to follow in the same road, that
ruin and destruction would be the result.
The lessons taught by the fathers Of the
nation will control the Banners future
action. Neighbor, We are glad you are out
bondage; we tender you the right hand OF
fellowship, and we viii join you in wrest-
ing our State from the control Of the Secs
sion Bourbon Democracy. We have kind
feeling for you; the past shall be forgotten,
and united we will restore the State TO its
former proud position. We may differ In
our choice Of President, but that viii not
prevent us fighting common enemy here
81 home.

TAKING IT ALL BACK.

On the 18th inst. the New York Tribune
Congratulated the merchants of New York
that Leet and Stocking had been ordered
out Of he general order business, saying:
Collector Arthur's public notice, con
eerning bonded goods, leaves out Of all con-
sderalion the firm which has been Cypress
ing New York commerce nearly ever since
the inauguration Of President Giant. This
blow at the influential staff officer has been
long in making ready, but it has fallen at
last, to the great relief of the merchants of
the city,"
The next day the Tribune took this all
back. II discovered that the act of Collec-
tor Arthur was simply sham. 1t says:
ave are sorry to be obliged to take from
Collector Arthur the credit which he re-
ceived yesterday for appearing finally TO dis
pose of Leet g. Stocking. His order relating
To the disposal of goods under General Or
Dc was well calculated to deceive; and a
careful investigation now discioses the fact
that the old ring is not broken, scarcely dis
turbed. The parade of firms authorized to
receive goods under General Order turns
out 10 be a screen for the notorious firm Of
Leet & Stocking, who are by no means dis
possessed Of their much-cOveted plums."

night OF that day as innocent Of wrong and
as unamenable to punishment as Il he had
never participated In the rebellion at all.
such, then, beihg the status on the 4th Of
July, 1868, Of those who participated in re-
DellIon, how comes it that ON and from the
list Of July, 1868, certain classes Of them
are treated as If still guilty, still amenable
70 punishment, and still in need Of pardon?
July John Doe is eligible to any Office;
July Il he cannot become constable I'M
less qualified thereunto by a two-thirds
vote Of each House of Congress. How is
this? The only answer can be that on the
2Ist of July, 1868, the fourteenth amend
ment became of force, and by the third Sec
ton of that amendment disabilities were
imposed on John Doe. But why inn
posed? Because he participated in the
rebellion, and participation in rebellion
is crime. But on the 4th of July,
1868, Doe had his participation
bloted out and all the penal consequences
OF that offence removed. How revive that
which is obliterated? How punish when
the ground of punishment is gone? There
is no answer to this; there can be none.
The fourteenth amendment expressly de-
lines participation in rebellion as crime, and
then punish said crime by exclusion from
office. But who can be thus excluded
Only those guilty of the crime. And who
are guilty? Certainly no man is whose par
ticipation was washed away by the amnesty
proclamation Of July 4, 1868, and made as
if it had never been. Only TO those whose
guilt remained unaffected by that proclama-
ton does the punishment for guilt ordained
by the third 8 ction Of the fourteenth
amendment apply. Neither Mr.. Jefferson
Davis nor the Tennessee man
can hold Office under the four
teenth amendment, but all others
are, with an exception to be now noted, un-
affected thereby. The exception is as re-
spects Congress. John Doe if coming up
as Senator or Representative, and met,
when pleading his pardon, by the state
ment that each House is sole judge of the
qualifications of its members, would have
to submit thereto. BY virtue of the Con-
stitution as it was before the fourteenth
amendment, that amendment can be made
of force as respects admission to Congress.
Otherwise than this, however, it cam OF be
lawfully made to apply, andif applied there
is a remedy in the courts. The simple plea
is that the disabilities of the fourteenth
amendment apply only to those guilty Of the
crime of participation in the rebellion, and
no man is SO guilty whose Offense in itself
and all its consequences was blotted out
before that amendment became law"

RADICAL journals in the interest of
Grant pretend to see in Gen. Porter's testi-
mony a vindicatOn Of Grants conduct in
the Leet s. Stocking transactions Of the
New York Customhouse. There is no
getting over the fact, however, that Grants
letter to the Collector obtained the job for
Leet; that Leet had been a member Of
Grants staff, and it will hardly do. to say be
did not intend it as a request for Office. The
New York Tribune said during the Gus
tomhouse investigation in that city:
at is in evidence that Leet got bis Gen
eral Order job by using the Presidents in
fluence; that the circumstances of a. T..
Stewart and other merchants were unavail-
ing 10 choke him of; that the President
knew exactly what Leet was about, and
that various members of his staff did, Gen.
Iorter's testimony touches none Of these
points"
And the Tribune asserts that Leet still
holds the place, notwithstanding Collector
Arthur's pretense of turning him out.

Senator Brownlow writes letter, dated
March II, deploring the holding of the
State Radical Convention on the same day
with the Re-Union- Reformers. He thinks
the Convention should be held on the 18th
of April. He is of course straight out for
Grant. He says: "The real people in Ten
nessee believe in him." ''Of the sixty-fve
thousand white and forty-fve thousand
colored Republican voters of Tennessee,
there are not five hundred who are not for
Gen. Grant, first, last and all the time"
He pays his respects to the Democracy and
the Liberal Republicans in his usual strain.

for this assertion, the people have but little
faith in the political foresight of either the
Banner or John Baxter. Therefore the
