OF 1855 VS. fifllf. MORTON OF TO-DAT. THE Democratic members of Congress, in a hopeless minority as they are. occupy a strange position in the legislative branch of a theoretically representative Uovernnient7 Tor they are exponents of the political views of an overwhelming majority of the people of the United Not oniy this, but, sin gnkrly enough, in both houses of Congress the ability and culture are almost exclusively confined to the Conservative benches.

-Among the representatives Mr. Bingham and Mr. Shcllabargcr are the only Republican members who ordinarily attract the attention of their colleagues or of the galleries, and in tho Senate ex-Governor Morton, Indiana, is the sole hope of his party upon occasions requiring any argumentative display. The influence of Suoiner has long since dwindled into nothingness. Wilson universally regarded as weal; Trumball's efforts are acknowledged as detrimental to the cause, and with the exception perhaps Mr.

Conkling, of New York, there is no other Scnatof upon the floor who is regardec as at all valuable except as a voter. Daring the past week the denunciations awakened among the people and press by the late revolutionary measures of the House have awakened the Republicans to policy, and the Rudical press exnjts over tb answer to this demand made in the Senate on Friday hist by Mr. Morton his subjeci being the latest reconstruction bill, his remarks being response to an opposition speech, massive and masterly, of Senato Doolittle, of Wisconsin. Mr. Trumbnil had essayed response to the latter, but so feebK that general dissatisfaction and alarm per vaded the ranks demoralized by Doolittle' heavy metal, and though paralytic, and unable to rise from his seat, Governor Mortor was forced to come to the rescue.

We hav his speech before us. Since its delivery i has been accepted as the true interpretatio and final defence of tho last Congressiona usurpation, and it therefore deserves analy sis. Mr. Morton spoke Jeagtbily and laboriou: ly. Ha begun by admitting that the power of Government could not be rightfully admin istered or absorbed by any one of the ton great but denied that in its ae tion towards the South Congress had trans gressed its own Constitutional limits, or invaded those of eUher of the co-ordinate branches.

He then proceeds "Congress not sought to establish negro charge that vra intended or intend to d(so is without the slightest foundation." positio.i it is sought to sustain by assuming that Congress could as easily have "disfranchised the mass as a portion of the Southern whites, or could equally weil have excluded every participator in the rebellion from while admitting every Southern black to. the polls. This is the foundation and pith ol his whole argument, and to that we will ad- dress brief criticism. In the first place, by giving this direction to his defence, Mr. Morton admits that the popular sentiment would be rightly outraged were the State governments at the South to be given over to African control.

Now, what are the facts-? In every Soutri- ern'State the Conventions now in session were under the control of majorities in thi interest of, and elected by, toe negroes. In South Carolina the registered negro vote is- almost double that of the whites. In Georgia the white majority is less than five hundred. In Alabama the negroes have a majority of over two thousand. In Louisiana their strength is double that of the whites.

In Florida the reg stration stood, whites 11, 157 b'acks 35,541. In Mississippi the negruc. prcpo.idorato bjff'rrn tlinvtmul And ing the policy which Mr. Lincoln presented to the nation OD tbe 8th of December, 1863. Mr.

Johnson's amnesty proclamation dillurs from Mr. Lincolo's in some restrictions it contains which Mr. Lincoln's jlid not contain. His plan of reconstruction is absolute- ly and simply that of Mr. nothing I mnrfl or less, with one difference only, that Mr.

Lincoln required that one-tenth of the poop's of the disloyal States should be ig to embrace this plan of roTOnstraction, Mr. Johnson says nothing about ha number; but so far it has been douo by a umber much greater than one-tenth." The Governor then proceeds to show that 16 "reconstruction policy" of ths Radicals--then in an embryo state--was ungous growth--au after thought, born o' he fear that without negro suffrago pass out ol their bauds through popular reaction agaiust their maladmiuis- ration. He says I call your attention to tho fact that Con gress itself, only a little over ayear ago, assumed to take the whole question of reconstruction out of the hands of the Prcsi dent, expressly excluded the from the right of suffrage in voting fr the moil who u-ere to frame a new constitution tho rebel SMtes. Xot only that, but I on to state what the constitution should contain, and provided that if tho constitutions to be brined by those conventions should con "orm to the provisions of this bill, then those States should b.i-entitled to come back it once. What were these conditions were, first, disfranchiso- nient of few of the active instigators of rebellion, above Colonel in rank second, tho prohibition of involuntary servitude, nnd, third, the repudiation of tho rebel debt." If Mr.

Lincoln had not refused to si that bill there would to day bo an act of Congress on tho statute books absolutely prohibiting negroes from any participation in the work of reorganization, and pledging the Government in advance to accept of the constitutions that might be formed i the bill, although they made no provisi (or the nettro beyond the fact of his personal liberty." In regard to the negro and the question suffrage, the Governor remarked "In regard to tbe question of a i i the freedmen of the Southern States to vote, while a i equal rights of nil men. that in lime all men will bavo the ri to vute, without the distinction of color in the case of four millions of slaves just freed from t.here should be a period of probation aw, preparation before they are brought to tin. exercise of political power. I would si these men, just emerged from slavery, a period of probation and preparation; I "give them time to acquire a littie property and get a little education, time to learn snme thing about the simplest forms of bti and prepare themselves for the exercise political power. At the end of ten, Sitce PERSONAL RtiB POLITICAL Dr.

lie was born i the county Clare, Ireland, in 1700, and vas consequently 10S years of age, Mr. William i Simms, the jovelitit and verso writer, is i i in cJotuii in very 'destitute circumstances. Ho is near SO years old. Tlio Senate Coiiuiiitteo on Foreign Re- ations liavo lo report favorably uoiuiaation of S. S.

Cox as Aliuisier to or twenty years let them como into the eu joyrnont of their political rights." Aa to tbe inevitable results which i fol low tbe creation of negro Stats government he said "If you enfranchise all tho negroes in thes, States you i have at least twenty nestn votes to one white vote, and in the work reconstructing the States of South a i a Alabama and Florida, you have a larger proportion--perhaps i color? votes to one white vote. Now, I ask you what is to be the effect of that? Tho fin effect will be to erect colored State govern merits. Under such a condition of thinys 'he negro would no more vote for a white mi would vote for a blackmail. Th would no more elect a white man mould elect inan. Hitman nature i lie same, whether in a white or colored shit, There could be nothing that would confer tnor pleasure upon a man of that race, of courst than the elevation to political power ef a 'if his own-race and color.

Having- sceilrd nower, they would retort upon us that i i we have so steadily practiced upon "ou give them the votes they i eiect me; of their own color. And we would have to blume them. Wo would rathe i badly of them If they did not. would ask you if tbe negroes of llayti, -my other place where they are in the major it.y, have ever elected a i man to office Believing that human nature ia tba sain under different complexions--that the ne are not differently constituted fro ureelves, and that they have like passion i us--we cannot how this powe si i i be exercised." "In every State where there ia a State government, a negro for Governor, arj i negro for Supreme Judge, i emigra uon will cease. There i be no moro emigration to any such State.

You can' lind the most ardent anti-slavery man ii Wayne county, who will go and locate in State that Las a colored State goremmeni You i absolutely oil' at once, and el fectually, all emigration from, tho Xoriher States, and from Europe too, tha event shall happen. Thus they i rcmai permanently colored States in tho Soull in Virginia, Carolina, and Arkansas alone have the whiteseven aregistercdmajor- ity, while in neither of these States, after thi manipulation of Kadical rule prescribed bj this Congress had been completed, did thej succeed in obtaining a victory at the polls. Farther than this, the proposed action of tht Republicans altering the reconstruction acts, so as to make a bare majority of votes cast suffice to reader valid a convention or to ratifj its acts, is a direct attempt to destroy tht white majorities ia these exceptional cases. In Arkansas the returns, as far as has been obtainable, only show a vote of thirty thousand out of a registered list of sixty-six thou- sand voters, and yet General Ord (acting o) course by and with the advice and consent ol this Radical Senate) promulgated an ordei declaring a convention ordered, and conve niently accounting for the deficient by an alleged "informality in the conduct 'J the election." Hull in the face those facts, the figure? given are official, Mr. Trumbull haul the au- tlaeity and mendacity to proclaim upon the Senate floor that tho blacks' he'd the preponderance in only two of the Southern Stalcp, and Governor Mortun is ignorant enoueh 01 unprincipled enough to adopt his statement as the basis for the greater portion of what i facetiously termed ll)C master effort of 1U lift." It is unnecessary to enter into discussion where the situation tpeuks to plainly for it sslf.

In nine Southern States -the polities' stipretnacy oi' the negro ia an established fact. The conventions now and lately in t-cwion prorc thai beyond contradiction, and it is useless for any Republican speaker to say that hifl party (Joes not intend to do what it has already done. It only remain; to inquire what the enormity of this established rule is, and fortu- nately we have at hand a speech delivered by this same Morton Governor of Indi- the tomi of Richmond in his own Stute on the 29th otSeptenibcr, 1865. bo defends Mr. Johnson.

"I ask, is it desirable to havo a colored State government? I say it is not.

It not, for many reasons. One reason is a -jueh States would i a constitute Oalance of power. They would be bourn! together by the strongest tie that ever hind- aifjn together--the tie of color and raco--Ibe tie of a down-trodden and despised As three hundred thousand bj. i common tie, were ablo to govern tbe us tion a long time, so four millions of poo- pie, bound together by a stronger tiu- 'lespised by whole work! as they hav been--would constantly vote and act together, and their united vote ivotild constitute a balance of power that i the Government of tho "I submit, then, however cic-nrly am' strongly we may a i the a a rights I'ho negro--I i to th) i i the a colored State are not desirable; a they i i about results that aro not to ho hoped for; a i a ly, they would threaten to i a and, I believe, would result in a war of races." Here, then, are Governor MORTON'S own words; to controvert and destroy the eflvct ol bis specious casuistry highly lauded by a timorous party. We need add i to this self-condemnation.

A mass meeting is c.illf:il in Xew York on 'his evening "to protect the i and sustain tho President'' ngains'. a "a partisan who, in violation of i sacred obligations, have laid violent hands on the Constitution of tho Union, and assumed she con'rol of the executive and i i a as well as the legislative branch of our Government, centralizing a power never con UJtnplati'd liy llio frumcrs of the Conilitn tion, and endangering the liberties of the people."
