CO.WEKSATIOX WITH THE PRESIDENT. , A iti-ntleniau who bnd n free converenlinn with President Johnson, a short time since, in forms bs that he found kitti hnpefnl, in gnnd spirits and oiiliesitnting in 'lie expression of hie :.-: H doea not .ntioipata aiiTtbing liltti a Deinofiriitio uiiijiirilj- in the next Ilnnse of lten resentmivfit, thnugii tlio nnnibei f n, ,,,, si h lives of that party will dnnhtlosa bo onnsidcra lily inorenscd. lint lie dues onunt conlideiitly nu llie return of n innjorily of nitiJoriitu men. who will he prepared In deal W illi the people of the Smith na nil honorable and high-minded nntiuni denl wilh their antagonists ufter having beaten and disannul them. And in districts and Slate, where the liepiililiciin parly fail to nominate sooh men he thinks Democratic.' can didate, will ho likely, in a majority of enseii, to hn elected over radicals. The President it unhesitatingly of ihe opin ion that the only safely of the tuition Ilea in a generous nnd expansive plnn of ooncilinliun, and the lunger this is delayed Ihe more dilliiiull will it be to briiif the Nurlh nnd tho Smith into harmony. II the suspicions, tyrannical policy is too long pursued, tho population ol the South will hoc e ns hostile iu time to llie North us Ihe people of Ireland aro toward Enghuid, adding to litis evil of heredilnry and growing aniinosi'y an ability for revenge a hundred fnld greater than Ireland possesses. In regard tu the blacks, the President suys they will find mk entingh und for ninny years to come probably better remuneration than any nther olass of agiicultrral laborers in the tntio try. The competition capitalists nnd land owners will i..sure guild treatment uud gund pay friiin the plnter. That there will be much disorder is to he "expected ; but there will he no more than there noiild he tit the Nurlh were the number uf hlavk Inhorers suf ficiently numerniis to enter into serious rivalry with the white Inborers. The President is confident thnt nothing enn bo safely aud pertimuetitly dune In regard lo restoring tho currency, diminishing timitlon. aud establishing the prnsperity of tho cnunlry on a sound am enduring basis, until it-preseii. latives from nil the Slates are present iu Con gress. The idea of legislating fur one third nf the population of Ihe country, nnd pneriug run stitutioual amendments withnnt iillowing them any voice in Ihe mailer, or paving any atten tion to their wishes, is full nf danger lo the fu ture pence uud welfare of ilio niiiiini. They eunnut be trented ns a elilpjugaled people or a vussal colnmes without a gem. of Inured being iutruduced. which will nunc, day nr other, though thu time nitty be distant, develop mis chicl nf file most serious character. With regard lo the basis of reprecrittaliun, he diMiimnos tbi. ... m,,ro ,g.,,r, h ,.,, not and it mil nut ho pciiiiuueutly setiled nu lil nil Ihe Stales are represented, and tin in crease nit the numbers nf representatives in consequence of Ihe emancipation of the slaves oun iu any event occur until tho census uf 1S7II is taken, until wnich lime uf cnursn thellirti fifths provision is in force under tho Inst cen ans.

The Government ol the United Slates liiaililaiueil hy force ol nuns supreme nut horny over all the territory aud oter Stalls aud peuplu within its jurieiliuliuii. which the Coiistitulion confers, hut it acquiies thereby no new power either of territorial possession ur civil authority which it did nut possess lieuue Ihe rebellion. All thu rightful power it Clin possess, ia that conlerred eillier iu express terms or by the laireel neoessnry im pliaatiou by Ihe Const ituliiin. It was that power and that authority which this rebellion sought In overthrow. Tho viclnry of Federal arms wa i simply the defeat of I hut attempt. Thu Liuveruiuciit throughout, acted nu Ihe jo Pensive. It sought only to hold possession uf what wus its owu. Neither the wur nor victu. ry, changed thu Coiislitutiuii. The war was uauied uii i.y virtue nl its pruvisiime, and un der the limitations which they prescribe. The result ol the war did nut enlarge, nbn.'ge or change or affect the powers nr release the Ijnveriiiuciil Irniii restrictions which weru lin puaed by the Constitution. It is tu day as It wus before the wur. the supreme law uf th laud, the constitution or lawsol any Kiaia In ihe contrary notwithstanding ; and all power not conlerred by the Coualitulioo upon the General Government mar prohibited by it tu the Stales, aru reserved In Hie several Stales. This position is vindicated not only by the sub slanlial nature of our Government and Ihe language and spirit of the Constitution, but hy all ils acts iu its several departmcni and al all limes from the outbreak uf the rebellion lu its close. In every message and proclamation of lit. Kiecttlive it was expressly declared that Ilia objtiLnf the war was le maintain the au thority uf the Constitution and preserve the Union t and Congress inure than once reitera ted this solemn declaration, aud added th as surance that whenever that object wa attained war shuold cense nnd all the States should re lain their equal right, and dignity unimpaired. It ia only sinco the war has clwed and Bar right, hat hern asserted en behalf of on do- fiartment uf thu General Government, thai it las been proclaimed by Coiierees that in ad dition In the powers conlerred upon it hy the Constitution, the Federal Government may now chum over Slate., th territory aud peu plu involved iu liiaiii section, the rights nf war. the right of conquest and eoiiliecatinii the right tu ablegate all existing governments in Stales and territories ( tosubji-l tlie territory Conquered I. such law,' regulations and de piivallolis as Iho k-gielalltu fli pirtinelil M Government may sho lit tu iuipians Under bis sweeping claim, that r'visc 1 1 'h CoB WHOLE NO. 80S. littilinn providing that no State shall, withom its consent, he deprived nf equal suffrage in the ncnaro nt tnu united rttntcj, has heen annulled, and ten Statea have heen refused representa tion in Congress, and the Cnngress in which only a part uf (lie States and penple are rep resented has asserted the right thui'lo exclude the rest frnm repreaentatlnn and from nil shnre in making Iheirnwn laws nr choosing their own rulers, until they comply with such conditions and perform such acts as this G'nngresa thus composed may prescribe. That right hai nut only been asserted hut exorcised and prnctlo ally enforced. Nor does it find any inppnrt In (he theory that the States thus excluded are In rebelliun and therefore precluded from sharing the nu Ihnritynf Unvcriimimt. They are nut thus lu rebellion. They aro in an attitude nf In) ally to the Government and hnve swnrn allegiance to the Constitution. In no one of lliein is there tho slightest Indication of resistance to the Government or protest ugalnst its Just and binding obligations. This condition of loyalty has been effeotunlly recognized by tho proc lamation of tho President. The laws or the United Slates have heen extended by Cnn gress over these States. Tho Federal Courts n ive been reopened. Federal taxes have been levied, and in every respect except that they are denied representation, the States are recognized as holding the same position, owing the same obligations, subject lu the same dn ties as other States. It semis to us lu the ex ercise nf most culm noil most enridid judgment we can bring tu Ihe subjepr, Unit clnliii, " en forced, inrulves as fatal an nverlhrnw of the Government and Unlnn as that Suught to be effected by llie Slates in armed Insurrection. ' But It ennnot be said that the power thus as serted tn exclude certain States frntn represen tstimi is made tn test wholly mi thu will aud discretion of Ihe Cnngress that asserts It. It is nut made lu depend npnn any specified oon-; dltions nor subject In nuy rules ur regiilatinns ef service. The right asserted und exercised is absolute without qualification ur restriction, and is not cmlim-d to Stales in rebellion nur to Stntes that have rebelled. It is nut Ihe right nt any Congress In formal possession nf ils legishniva aulhorily to exclude any Slnte nr States and any putliim nf people thereof at any time from rcprcsentiitiun in Cnngress and the eleclural cullego at its own discretion, and until they shall perform snob aols and comply with sne'h conditions as it may dictate. The reasons for such exclusion being wholly without discretion, Cnngress may change Ihetti as Congress itself may ohnitge. One Congress may exclude a Stnte Irnin all share nf the Government for nne reason, ami that reunited, the next Cnngress nmy exclude it for nmuher one. A Stale may be excluded on oiiu ground to day ami on attnther tu-nior-rnw. Nnrihern ascendency may exclude Snntlierti Stales Irnin nno Congress, Western ur Nurlh-Western nr bolh combined may ex elude Ihe Northern or Eastern fiuiii Iho next Cuugre s. Improbable as such an nsserliun' may seem lu lie, the establishment nf th. prln eipie rnw asserted and acted upon will rentier them by no menus impussibli . The charaur. and, indeed, u very existence uf Cnngress and the Ujiiun is Ibus mode dependent solely and entirely nu ihe party i.nd the sectional exi gencies of the hour. Wo need not stop lu rliowlhatsu.il action nut inly finds no ante cedent in Ibo Constitution, but is at war with every principle uf our (internment and with the very existence uf tree inslitiiliuns. It is the identical practice which has rendered fruit, h-ss all attempts hitherto made to establish and maitiliiiii free guvi-ruiueuts in Mexico aud t lie Slates uf South America. Party neceesiiies assert thcuifelves as supe rior tu the f ii i niiieiilnl law, which is set aside tu reckless disobedience to their behests.

U made by its rot is ions tn depend nu tho tight and fact uf lepreseiiiiition. Tim Cnngress upon which is conferred nil tho legislative pow er uf Hie minimal Government, consists of twn bruuchis Senate and House nl Iteprrsen latives whoso Joint concurrence ia essential to the validity of nuy law. Of these, tbe House uf Iti'preseutnlites (see Constitution. Art. I, Sec. 2) shall be composed of members chosen every second year by the people nf the several Stutes. N'nt only is Ihe tight uf represenln tniion thus recugnized a. possessed by all Ihe Stales ami hy evety Mute, without restriction, qualilicnlioii nr cnmliiiun of nuy kind, but the duly nf uluaviiig is imposed ou Ihe people nl each nnd every Slate alike, wil limit distinctions ur the aullmriiy tu make distinctions among iheiii lor any reason ur any ground, whatever In Ihe Senate, so careful is tbe (,'onsliluliou tu Scenic In eveiy Slnte Ibis light of reptesentu ii.ni. ii is expressly provided lliai no .Male shall, nilhout its consent, be deprived of ils equal sulfiiige lu that budy, evi-u by nu amend uient uf the L'oiisiitiiiiou itself. When, I here lure, any Slate is excluded Inuii such represen tation, tint only is a right nf the Suite denied, hut the coiistili iiomil integrity nf the Senate is impaired and Hie validity uf the Government itself brought in question. Congress at Ihe present moment thus excludes from tepn-sen tatioii in both brunches, ten Slutea nf Ihe Union, denying llicir nil shuru in Ihe i-uncl-uient of laws by which they are tu be governed aud all p.itliui alien in thu election nf rulers by v. hum these laws are tu be enforced. In nther words, a Congress in which only twenty- six Slates are represented claims tlio right in guv. tn absolutely all nl Ihe Ihtrtrax Males winch compose Ihe Union, make laws, choose rulers, aud exeludu the other ten from all rliure in their own Government until it sues fit to ad mit lliein thereto.

No man within tha Insnrgetil States was allowed to take tho oath tn support, the Constitution nf th.

It did nut annol the one nur ahrngulo the other, and it ceased to exist when tho nsnrpation hy which ' waa created had heen overthrown, and Htntet had again resumed their allegiance to the Consti tution and laws of the United Statoa. lint it is asserted in support of th. authority claimed hy Cnngresa nnw in possession of pow er, that it Hows directly from th. laws nf wart that it is among the rights which victorious war alwaya confers upun onuqnerors, and which the conqueror niav exercise or waive In his nwn discretion. To this we reply that th. -law s in question re Into solely lo far aa th. rights they confer are concerned, to war. waged between alien nnd independent nations, and can hnr no place nr force in thi. regard in a war waged by a Government to snppreas an Insurrection nf Its nwn people npon its own soil against its authority. If w. had carried mi eaeoeeefol war against foreign nations, W. might then have acquired possession and Juris diction of their soil,' with the right tn enforo. our law upon their people, and to Impose upon lliein such laws and sncli ahligaliona as ,we might choose, but we had before Ihe war complete Jnrisdiotinn of the Southern States, limited nnly by'.our Constitution.

Hy such an enlargement or abridgment of Iho Coiistitulion, power can b. effected only hy an amendment of the Cunati'.ntlnii itself, and such amendments can be made only in th. tno i s which Hie Constitution Itself prescribe. The claim that the suppression of Insurrec tion against the Government gives additional power und authority to that Government es jiecially. that It enlarges th. jurisdiction of Congress and give that budy th. right to ax elude Stales from representation in th Na tional Council, without which tbe Nation can have nn authority and nu existence, teems to ns at variance alike with the principle of th.
