At the close ot the rebellion they were unwilling, as they are now, to return to the Union, except on their own terms, with all the offices and honors in their own hands and from that day to the present they have leen as factious, as selfish, and as persistent in their opposition to reconstruction as they were desperate and bloody in prosecuting the war against the United States! Their conduct proves that they are determined never to submit in good faith to the rightful authority of the government and it will, therefore, be the duty of the people of the State to vote them down and govern them in the future as in the past The factious and selfish disposition ot these, leaders is most manifest, in that they do hot propose to wait to see what sort ot a Constitution the Convention will makev but they are organizing advance to defeat it, whatever it may be.

it is enough that they will not make the instrument that it will not provide especially for them and their followers that it will be a Constitution by the people, of toe people, and for the peo- pie, and therefore it must be Tejected.
