4 correspondent of the New YOrk
World supplies the following list o
those in the South who are still dis.
qualified by the fourteenth amend.
ment from holding office:
The number now under disabilities is
small, and probably does not exceed five
hundred, if, indeed, there be so many
The act Of last session relieves all per
sons except Senators and Representa-
tives Of the Thirty-sixth and Thirty
seventh Congress and officers in the
judicial, military and naval service OF
the United States, heads of departments.
and foreign ministers Of the United
States" This act is of doubtful inter-
probation. 1t cannot be denied that the
intention Of those who framed the law
was TO except from amnesty those officers
Of the United States Army and Navy
vino were in service at the time the war
broke out and who resigned their posi-
lions, and subsequently gave aid and
comfort to the rebellion; and that
this is the true construction OF
the law is maintained by Judge
Thurman and other sound jurists.
Il was argued, however, at the time OF
the passage Of the bill by the South, that
whatever the intention Of the language
Of the statute, il only applies to those
who, having he'd such positions in 1850
'6l, are now in the judicial, military,
and naval service" Of the United States.
Such an Interpretation was maintained
10y Senators COnkling and Frelinghuy-
sen, and if true, would reduce the num-
Der under disabilities 20 those who served
IN the T~hirty-sixth and Thirty-seventh
Congress- very small number, indeed.
il is safer, perhaps, to adopt the broader
Interpretation, inasmuch as the holding
Of an Office contrary TO the provisions of
The fourteenth amendment is punished
very severely by a Federal statute.
The list Of sec~essiOnists in the Thirty
Congress o living and not yet
relieved OF their disabilities includes the
following Senators:
Benjamin Fitzpatrick and Clement G.
Clay, jr., Of Alabama; Robert M. john
son and William X. Sebastian. OF Arkan-
sas; David i. Yulee and stephen RI.
Mallory, of Florida; Alfred johnson
and Robert TOombs, of Georgia; Judah

Davis and Albert G.. Brown, of Missis-
sippi; Trustin Polk, of Missouri; Gen

A similar comparison is made with
the cost Of English manufacture, show,
ing a difference in favor of Southern
yarn four dollars and seventy-ive cents,
without taking into consideration bro
kcrage in Liverpool, or the freights and
charges on the cotton from Liverpool tc
Manchester. This would bring the diff
ference between cotton manufacturing
in the South and England to about the
same figure, namely, five cents a pound
IN favor Of the former. Happy might
VIC be, indeed, if we only knew more
fully, and rightly appreciated, the ad-
vautages with which a kind Providence
has blessed US. We do appreciate them,
but not sufficiently. We have a teem-
ing soil, capable Of producing everything
ulat mans wants call for; a genial eli
mate, inexhaustible water power, an
excellent system Of railway communi-
cations, and an industrious, energetic
population. To these, if we can but add
good government, and the introduction
Of more capital, and infuse into our
people some ideas, we shall start
again on the high road to prosperity.
