djoarnel wUnodt presenting n plan. I then
Veotedotf, M I hare been doing Id my own
State, to reetore the other States. We found
the people had no courts, and we laid to the
jldgee. distriot attorney! and marshals! go
dewi and bold your oourte ; the people need
that the tribnnali of justice slmll be opened.
We looked about and saw that the people down
there had no mail. They had beon Interrupt
ed and oat off by the rebellion. Wo laid to
the Poetmaeter General t let tho people have
nail facilities, and then they will begin to un
derstand what we all feel and think, that we
are one people. We looked about and eaw that
there waa a blockade, that the custom-houses
were eloeed, and wo laid i lot the doors of the
enitom-hoasri be opened and roniove the block
ade; let trade and commerce be restored;
We thai tratoled, opening oostom-honsei, re
storing malls, and re-establishing all the cus
toms that had been Interrupted by the rebel
lion. Waa there anything here that was not
aatboriied by the Constitution and justified by
the great necessities of the ease J Now. what
remains to ha done I It I) to admit their rep
neMta tires. When we say admit represent
atites In a constitutional and law-abiding sense
ae we intended at the beginning of the Got
ernment, all that is needed i for the Houses
resptetfully te determine the question. But
tome one will say, a traitor might oomo in.
The answer to that is, that each House must
be the jodget and when traitors present them
mItm, cannot either House know that they ore
traitors t Cannot they kick them out of doors
aid send them back, saying to tho people who
eat them, yoe must send loyal men f Cheers
nd a Toioe, "That's logic." What is the
diffieolty a boot that! None. Cheers. If
a traitor presents himself to either House can-
net that House say, no, yon cannot be adtnitled
into either body t go back; we will not deny
ynnr people representation, bnt they most send
loyal representatives. Cheers. When
the States send loyal representatives, onn you
have any belter loyalty? . Whilo I have beon
contending against traitors, treason, secession
and dissolution of the Union, I havo been con
tending at the same lime against tho consocia
tion of power here. I think that tho consoll
dation of power here Is equally dungerous with
the separation of the Status ; that one would
not be better used and might ran into anarchy,
while the other -would conoontrste and entnil
even monarchy. But there is an idea abroad
that one man can be a despot, that one mini
can be an usurper, bnt that one or two hundred
men cannot. Mr. Jefferson, tho apostle of lib
erty, tells us, and so does common sense, Hint
despotism can be exercised by many more rig
oreosly than by one. What rower has your

The Preeident Is nothing more than a Tribune

was encroaching on the people's rights, and
putting it heels of power on the necks of the
people, tho people chose a Tribuno and placed
Dim at the door of the Senate, so that when
that power ventured snob an aot, he waa clothed
with newer to say "Veto; I forbid." Your
President now Is the Tribune of this people. I
thank Ood, and intend to assert the power
which the people have placed in my hands.

Chicago, April 20. The testimony of A.
H. Stephens before the Keoonslruclioo Com
miltee fill nearly a page of the New York pa
pers, and provoke most decided comment.
The New York Timet: Troe, Stephens says
that Ma omlnlnna. Anil thai nnininna nf ilia, Rnnrli
generally, on the abstract question of State
sovereignty have not undergone much change.
Why should Iheyt The sword cannot out
ima opinions, though it prevent their appli
cation. It I enough for the present purpose,
nd for the country, that the subjoct emerge
from the struggle convinced it interest aro to
be found in hearty and unwavering acknowl
edgment of the Union society adapting its
relations to the changee produced by abolition
of slavery and on these points we consider bis
zpeeition satisfactory. Nor oan we traoe any
sign ef Inherent hostility to the negro in other
than civil relations. " Individually," Stephens
it reported to have said, " I should not be op
posed le a proper system of extending a limited
saffrage to this class of our population." Ho
rood this, what could wo of New York ask I
lie It averse, moreover, to any action upon tho
eehject, exocpt by the Southern States them
selves. - In my Judgment, it Is a matter that
heloogt of constitutional right to the States to
regelate exclusively each for itself." Is there
anything damaging to the Booth, then, in Ste
pasn'i declaration, that it " will not yield to
nMta enflraea. ap nth. ftrr.nnilnii.nte In tliA
Constitution, as conditions precedent to re-admission
to Congress"! We think not. 8to-
thsss says that " tbey (the people) think they
ave done everything that is essential and
proper, and my judgment i that they would
not bo willing to do anything further as a con
dition precedent. They would simply remain
quiet and passive."
The JVtowtj says t Stephens tells the people
have attained a very decided conviotiou that
seoession Is Impolitic. They have good reason
fer that conclusion, but now impolitic clearly
because ef their crushing defeat. Hut aoppnso
the whirligig of lime should present a totally
new aowdiiien wherein seoession might be at
tempted afresh, without probability nf failure,
what then T It is Stephen' very decided con
V let ion that the Southern people were entitled,
from the) moment Ihe rebellion wss put down,
te come right back, without conditions or re
strictions, into Congress, and share fully and
equally in Ihe Government of the country, lie
thinks it was for this the loyalists were fighting,
wherein they don't agree. He says he douhts
the legal validity of the acts of Congress passed
la Ihe absence of the representatives of the se
ceded States. Finally, Mr. Stephens thinks
slavery dead only beoao.ee Ihe former slave
- State have abolished it Tbe 7Vt6m eon
lade i Stephens' testimony damages the pros
peel of the early read mission of the Southern
State.
The iVstM (Democrat) calls Stephens' testl
, many oar vindication, and says he might hare
gene farther, and said these people believe they
have done too much. In view of the heartless
rrogasjM with nhioh their repeated acta, ten

TI1K POLITICAL SITUATION.
By fur the most important testimony con
oerning the present feelings, ideas and animus
of the Southern people is found in the state
ments of A. H. Stephens, of Georgia, recently
made before the Reconstruction Committee at
Washington City. 1 The telegraphic report of
Mr. Stephens' testimony may be found in an
other column. Mr. Stephens has been held up
as a representative of the oonservAtistrj and In
cipient loyalty of tho South; and his recent
speech In Georgia, which bns been WAriuly in
dorsed by even tho New York Tribune, togetb
er with his former course towards secession,
hud led us to expect better things of him. If
Mr. Stephens represents Ihe great mass of well
disposed rebels at the South, we hesitate not to
say that not a truo Union man, none who voted
for Lincoln and Johnson, will ngreo Hint poli
ticians or statesmen with the views which he
declnres himself to hold can be en My trusted
with political power. On the contrary, Mr. S.
umkes a statement which must strike every true
Union man as the dogged admission of a do-
defeuted secessionist, rnthcr than the frank
confession of sn enlightened and penitent rebel
In reporting his testimony, the N. Y. Timet
says:
1 True, Stephens says I hat his opinions,
and the opinions of the South generally, on tho
abstract question ol State sovereignty, have
not nnilergona niucli change. Why should
Iheyt The sword cannot cut down opinions
though it prevents their application."
That won't do, Stephens; not ft bit nf It. Ho
fore we will ever consent that you shall come into
Congress, or enjoy tho political privileges of
other Scnutors or the Nationnl Congress, yon
must not ouly acknowledge that your opinions
on State sovereignty have undergone very rail
ical changi s. but that the sovereignly which
procured secession i a treasonable heresy, not
to bo tolerated by any man professing loyalty
to tho United States. You must do even more
than the Oregon Copperheads and rebels did
on this question not only abandon tho seccs
slon, nullification platform which thoy adopted
two years ago, but you must now admit that
yon are now convinced lliat such a platform is
a fatal delusion, a treasonable doctrine-. When
we reoonstruot these Southern Stales, they
must be on the snro foundation of loyalty and
allegiance to the National Union, Nothing lets
will ever satisfy tho men who threw aside old
party ties to form a Union party. That word
Union means mora than the more name of a
party. To our mind, it ia tho embodiment of
all our national greatness, glory, prosperity,
houor and purpotuity all the pence, happiness,
comfort and protection of the citiieu, We
want no oompaot with 8lates that reserve the
right, mentally or otherwise, to seoedo at will
Tbe Union men of Ihe nation Republicans,
Douglas men, Johnson men. Boll Everett men
Democrats all who united in tho organization
of the Union party, cannot afford lo settlo the
question on the old basis of leaving secession
or nullification open to discussion. This (into
ful doctrine tbat any State lias the right to
judge of the infraotion of the Constitution, and
apply Ihe remedy, wa the very pith and mar
row of the great contest between the Union
and the Confederacy, and when it was settled
by the sword, it was settled forever against tlio
Southern Secessionists and their Northern al
lies, the Copperhead Democrats. The total
repudiation and perfect destruction nf this State
sovereignty, which embraces nullification and
secession, and which declines to submit ques
tions in dispute to tho constitutional arbiter
the Supreme Court of Ihe United Slates must
be secured, now and forever. That is ihe very
thing that produced the war, and Union men
will all with out voice demaud (hat this ques
tion be settled now 1 si nucnrdiiuuo with the re
sult of our bloody tallies buforo Riohmond. No
matter bow much we may differ about negro
suffrage, er utber tide issues, the question which
Stale sovereignty presents is the great auettion.
and about that there can he no tompromite with
the South, and much leu any divition or differ-
tncet among Union men. If we abandon this
point, Ihe war will have been fought in vain,
and all Ihe precious blood will hare been
poured out lo vainly appease Moloch indeed.
No indeed, Union nieu, we cannot hesitato or
yield a hair' breadth on thi point. If we did,
wa might well expect to see the graves of our
brave soldiers give ep their slaughtered hero
to drive us from the earth. Stand fast then,
ne and all, upon Ihe point tbat our Union is
not to be broken op at Iho will of any Statu.
Standfast; and whilo we offer Justice- tempered
with mercy, let us sternly and unflinchingly
demand " tecurity for the future."

nbounded Knthtmlasm among Inlon Men.
On Isst Saturday morning, we made a reconnnliering
eipcilition, by way of asccitnlning the force of the en
emy at JenYrwm. Anlvlng on tho ground, we found
the forces of the enemy matched by about an equal
mibcrof Union men. After consultation. It win ilc-
Trained to oll'er tho enemy bntllo on his own ground,
by wny of a dbtcussloii of fuur hours, In which Mr.
Sin i t li should have an opening speech of one hour und
hnlf, Col. Hawkins a reply of the same length, with a
joinder for each gentleman of half an hour. Mr.
Smith opened in his usual smooth and "candid style,
repeating the same speech which bo mado lio -o two
weeks ago. Ho traced tbe bistury of the Democratic
party from Its origin to the breaking out of the seccs
slon rebellion wsr st the Houth, and there dropped it.
In doing this, ho most certainly put tlio history of his
party Into tho discussion aa ono of tho Issues, Ho said
tiling about tho platform of either of Iho parties, hut
welt at length upon tbe Freedmen's bureau bill and
Civil Hights bill. Ho neglected to say a good word for
tho brave soldiers who maintained the Union, as in duty
bound by his own platform , and as he knew one of tboae
aoldicra waa to reply to this speech and he failed to
how hie colors.
When It came Colonel Hawkins' turn to reply, the
glorious old ling was brought in, amid the cheers of the
Union men; and Colonel Hawkins eloquently pointed to
the ling us the colors be always inarched under, and
which ho always raised before engaging Id any coutost
with the enemy, ('boors followed cheers, and it became
evident that tbe Union man were going to carry the
day. Colonel Hawkins then proceeded wilh his speech.
He admitted the truth of everything Smith had said
alsiiit bis party, not excepting tlnudatemcnt that many
Democrat left the old party at the breaking out of the
war from " honest motives," Slid concluded that the fact
f their leaving the patty at that time was the bent evi
dence that all such wore really honest men. Since Mr.
Smith had put the history of his party into the discis
sion, Colonel Hawkins then took up tho history ot De
mocracy just where Mr. Smith left oil at the breaking
nut of the Democratic rebellion and proceeded to give
its history and record during tho war, with such eln.
uence of elucidation and vehemence of denunciation,
that tho very house trembled with the uubounded ap
plause of the Union men.
We have no space to give any of the many over-
helming arguments wilh which the gallant soldier
put to lliglit tho flimsy sophistry of the Nestor of the
Urogon Democracy. The democrats present were
kunbfounded wilh confusion at the terrible storm of
facts, argument and eloquence, with wh.cli the battle-
scurred Teunesseeau assailed the quaking ranks of the
copperhead democracy. Not content with the record
of democracy during the war, the Colonel boldly as
sailed tbe democratic platform, and showed the audi-
ence that it was clearly in favor of destroying the gov
eriiment, by repudiating Its iuat debit. This was a
point on which Mr. Smith bad failed to say a word,
sud hi runking hit reply, he fairly and inextricably
committed himself iu favor of repudiation, by declar
ing that the democracy were la favor of repealing
the law which exempted the bonds from taxation, and
not iu favor of taxing tlicui, thus not only repudiating
the government, but also repudiating the democratic
plalform. Suffice it lo any that the meeting was
glorious Luion triumph. At the cluse of Col, Haw
kins' speech, three rnu ing cheers wero given for the
entire Union ticket, und three checre for the Union
army and navy, in order to let the democrats have a
chance lo cheer but the democrnte didn't cheer tho
urmy and Navy, and Mr. Smith suggesting that the
lastohcera included Col. Hawkins, a Union man ut
the back part of Ihe room sprang up and proposed
three cheers for "Col. liuwkius," which the Colonel
promptly declined.
Smith nttempted to reply und auiooth ovcrhis rucord
but it wouldn't go down, and lie soon ceuted, ro
treated in disorder, leaving the colors which Hawkins
raised, Homing over the held of a glorious Union vie.
tory.
We are glud to find the Union men perfectly united
mid ready for Ihe election ; all wu noed la a few such
rovsing speeches ns Col. Hawkins It capiible ef niuk
lug. While sumo Union men prefer the Johnson put
icy of reconstruction, and tome tlmt of Congreas.they
all say in the samo language, both Johnson and Con
gress are for reconstruction in tome way, while the
copperheads ure opposed to recoiist motion at all, nod
desired the auccvaa nf tliu Southern Confederacy.
Democrats ran make no isauo with Union men about
either Johnson or Congress, at it ia our business, and
not theirs.
An Uonrnt Man Vindicated. In another
col u in u will be found an account of further de
velopments in tlie case of Die robbery of Collector
Adams, of Oregon. When he arrived in this city
and the facta so far as then known were detailed,
the Attn immediately pave the weight of its opin
ion in support of tbe unjust suspicion that he had
disposed of tho money for his own purposes, and
started the stnry of a robbery merely to shield
hnnsoii irom the consequences of tho crime.
We heard hia story, were satithod of his inno
cence, and gave him the benefit of the legal pre
sumption thereof. Ho complained bitterly, and
with ronton, ot the injustice which the paper in
question had done hint, and published .in thaPtug
a full and truthful statement of the entire matter.
a were conliilenl that ho would he finally vindi
cated, and gave publicity to our belief. The se
quel has demonstrated tho propriety and justice
of our conduct, and added another to the long
list of cases wherein the Alia has attempted to
condemn men accused of crime, or resting under
suspicion ol it, nctore any legal opportunity has
been given them of vindicating the falsity of el
ther, only to see them actually iu Court, or thro'
tho natural developments of guilt in the right
quarter, completely ami houoialily acquitted. If
ignorance, inditerution, or malice can appreciate
the value of even a disgraceful experience, we
shall expect to aee tiie policy of tho .li iu attch
eases changed.
We congratulate Mr. Adams unou the fact that
the guilt in this matter ia at laat fattened npon at
least one nf ihe men who robbed him S. P. Daily
Plug, April 10.
" Fastened npon one of ths men who robbed
him." Doea the Plug mean to say that the Alia
man ia one of the robbers? Mr. Adama we think
never thought thia. Ho merely supposed that tba
Alia was a black-mail concern, sud that its editor
waa a subsidised scoundrel, who waa paid by the
California smugglers to rob him of what the
thieves were too honorable to attack bis charac
ter. Aa much at Mr. Adams despises the thieves,
he reaiecta them much more than ho does such
fellows as the Alia and Arirs f.rttrr editors.
