HOSPITAL EOR DISABLED SOLDIEIS.
We publish in another column the charter
of the "Southern Hospital Association for
Disabled Soldiers." The purposes of the as
soclbtion commend themselves to the whole
community, and should awaken to favorable
action the truly phiolshtlrrpio'in every civil
iztd land.
This ossociatltd had its origin at a meeting
called at the St. ,Plrels, Hotel on the 22d
June ulk At an adjourned meeting held on
the 29th 9th sere was a large attendance of
some of the most prominent gentlemen of
New Orleans and of Louisiana, with a tepre
a sentation from some of the other Southern
States. At that meeting the charter whicJ we
publish was adopted. John B. Hood was
chosen president of the assotiation, and S. B.
Buckner vice president. Thirty-five directors
were chosen. Thetr names are pnblished,
and are a guarantee of the fidelity with which
the airs of the association will be admisis
At a meeting ef the .oard of directors held
on the 16th imat, Mr. J. J o wman was ap
pointe treasurer of the association, and
Messrs -.S. Pike Jameseeewitt and i. L.
Gibson were seleted as the fiiance com

should again -parade themselves before a
Louisiana peublio; and atillJ more astonishing
thA~t sy alio.r d heve he assurance to claim
_lpe, tAh.sosereign etthorlty in the State.
And now we fmd4 that the same kind of people
in other States eN goingto follow theseample
set them by their Louisiana brethren, and
siahibit themseless at Philadelphia wit but
say regard to appearance.
Thes people preteod to be the "loyal" peo
pl of the South. They assemble in' conv n
tion, int order, we presumne, to show to the
country.exactly what t is kind of Southern
"loyalty" means, and of wh14t it conIu ts.
They intend to 'prove their '"loyalty" by
maligning and traducing the people whom
tlHy assume to represent, by volunteering
isee testimony against the States which they
deert.d in time of need, and by invoking the
aid of a bitter and vindictive party in the con
atyhisation of their purpose, to regain the
license of plandera.d oppression which they I
ienoayed for a time in agne of the States, nand t
acquire the power dtof wbiQhthey think they
were cheated by a virtuona pqblic opinion in
other States. They do not disguise theirpur- I
poses, . They avow that they liatend, if posi.- a
ble, to disfranlhise 1he Souttlhrc r ohocs, and
to enfranchise the Southern I wlacls. liutlhr is
theirldeity and Brownlow t'j,ir pns:stle. What
suclh i prty must be we vran easily eonceive;
but that such a party sonhld deliberat.ly court.
the ohserv;tionl of 'ae public, is a height of
efrontery to wlhic a scen Titus Oates never as
pired.
The cull feo this extraordinary convention
is signed by twenty-six persons. Of th:se,
three pre'&ond to hbe citizens of Texas, and of
these tiaree, Jack Hamilton, late provisiomal
goveroror, is the chief and leader. H:milton
som e time ago left Texas, declaring that he
wrauld never return thither to reside. Georgo
~R. Paschall, is practicing law in Washington;
and Lorenzo Sherwood lives in Brooklyn, New
York. These are the three Texans. The two
Georgians who sign the call are G. W. Ash
burn and Henry G. Cole-both Northern men.
One of them is the correspondent of a Boston
radical newspaper, and the other was, dturing
Confederate days, suspected of treasonable
correspondence with General Sherman. Eight
putative Virginians sign the call; and of these
six are Northern men. Of the Alabamians we
know bit little, and nobody else knows much
more ; but ashirds of a feather flock together,
we presume they are fitly associated with
Jack Hamilton and Jeffreys Underwood. The
same sny be said of the Missourians. As to
the presumed North Carolinians we know ab
solutely nothing. Holden, who has a marvel
ously keen scent for the buttered side of his
bread has refused to have anything to do with
the affair, and what sort of a conclave must
that be into which even Holden refilses to
0 enter!
These are the people who intend to repro -
a sent the "loyalty" of the South. They are
certainly fair samples of their class. Counter
e felt Southerners, deserters uasdfiflse witnesses,
Y they will be received with warm welcome by
their radical allies.
MILITARYl INTERFERENCE IN CIVIL AF
FAIRS.
It seems from reports that the legislature of
Tennessee came to a hitch on the 17th. The
radical majority of the House, after effectual
drilling and schooling by the urbane, charit
ableund forgiving Rev. Gov. Brownlow, were
trying to force some measure on that body in
opposition to the views and wishes of a very,
considerable minority-in other words, were
about to commit an act of that most tyranni
cal character, the tyranny of the many over
the few. Yesterday's reports did not mention
the subject under consideration when the con
certed absence of a large number of conserva
tives reduced the roll of the House to less
than fifty. The presumption is that the pend
ing vote was one of very great importance,
and it may have been nothing less than a vote
on the acceptance of the amendment to the
United States Constitution proposed by Con
gress, and originating with the celebrated
committee on reconstruction. The tactics
resorted to by the minority, though not strictly
in accordance with parliamentary rules, are
not without either precedents or a possible
justification. While there must either be an
end to legislation or an eventual submission
to the will and decree of a majority,
it sometimes happens that a little delay
in passing an obnoxious, odious and un
just measure can be obtained by no
other means than breaking the quorum.
The remaining members have their remedy in
the universally'given authority to send after
and compel the attendance of absent mem
bers-a remedy, however, which does not ex
tend to incarceration or unusual continuance
of cuftody. The moment the House adjourns
for the day the member who has been
brought up by order of the House is
again at large, and may not even
be annoyed by the surveillance of the ser
geant-at-arms or his deputies during the in
termission between the daily sessions. While
the process of collecting absentees is going on,
the House, being unable to transact business,
nsually takes an informal recess, members
being ordered to remain within the bar or
other prescribed limits within hearing of the
speaker'"a hammer or within reach of the ser
geant's staff, The right to compel the atten
dance of absentees is strictly limited to the
employment of the men and means at the
disposal of the House, to-wit: the sergeant
st-arms, iis regulardeputiesnd such other
deputies asb'e may select by consent of the
House and without demand , their compull
sory service., Under the auspices of their
govarsor the Tennessee radical legislators ap
pear t- have employed means as arbitrary as
they-were useless in their attempt to secure at
qgorums for speoific purpose.
allow his oficers and m~id to be employed as
runners eid deputies of the sergeant-at-arms
was entirely proper, except that his resolution
P should have been taken at once, peremptorily
sandwithout consulting the commander-in
chief. As long as civil and militAry qflicers
moie respectively on their prescribed lines
collision~o will be avoided. As long as the
great police fgre eof the Union is employed in
maintaining the laws, upholding the authority
and vindicating the rights of the federal gov
ernment soldiers will neither be looked upon
with dread by peaceful citizens, nor will they
be called to the aid of partizan State officials
for the promotion of partizan schemes.
This appeal for military cooperation is
another symptom of the growing and repre
hensible disposition tomake the United States
government and officers, and especially its
army, arbiters of local disputes and auxiliaries
in the accomplishment of party purposes. We
can readily imagine how with an enormous
srmy il hii hands a corrupt, unscrupulous and
audacious President may at some future pe
riedpermit and direct the employment of mil
itary force on every occasieh when it shall be
asked for, and that the invocation of military
interference may become so frequent that the
whole country will be ruled by bayonets and
army ordrs. This is one of the signs of thst
tendency towards autocracy now evidently
rising in the United States. The first step
will be the completion of the process of con
centrating all power in the federal government
And the practical obliteration of the bounda
ries of States. The second step will be the
massing of all power in the hands of a majority
which shall be represented by pliant courlt, an
tuserupuloats Congress and an ambitious e xe-.
cutive who shall also be a member of the doe.m
inant faction or party. The third step wiil be
taken when military interference and a long
series of burdens, insults and oppressions shall
drive some portion of the people into revolt,
which will give occasion to raise large armies.
If the incumbent executive is at such time a
man popular with his party and enjoying their
confidence, if he is at the sames time, fond of ,
exercise of power, be will find little troublle
by successive steps in extending the chains of'e
martial law over the entire republic. Our i
country is ripening for an absolute monarchy
and a vast military despotism. The
loss of personal liberty, individual rights °
and the privilege pf being govern~l by our t
own laws Imuot be t.o reoutoer roult of the
loss of independence, rights and so\ereiguty
by the States. Thorso call ifor aid on ftderal
troops by State authorities show a growing
obliviousness of Stato dignity and a rapid dc
nay of State pride, both indicative of the
chango which the government of the republic
is silently undergoing.
THE PAPAL BONDS.
His Holiness the Pope is in straitenedl cir
il nstances. He wants four millions of dol
ars. IIHe needs for the purposes of his go -orn
miint that sum, not to carry on war against
King Victor- not for any aggressive purpose,
sot for any warlike scheme---but merely to
pay the regular government dues. hIls bonds
are offered at the low price of sixty-six cents
on the; dollar, and] each contributor to the
loan is respectfully reminded that the woe~eeds
ore to be employed for the welfare of general
ehristianity and the spren of the gospel and not
at all in prosecuting political enterprises with
cold steel and saltpetre. The august head of
the church and temporal ruler of its States
does not attempt to show that by contlibuting
to the civic necessities of his dynasty the
contrihbutors would not thereby enable him
to devote other funds to warlike purposes,
should it enter into the heart of the sovereign
of the Papal States to draw the sword of the
nilitant temporal authority tss smite him upon
the left cheek by whom he .ad been smitten
upon the right and io bestow a worldly chas
tisement coupled with a pontifical curse upon
those who would trench upon his prerogative,
esseen his aiutlority or narrow his magisterial
lomiiim n. In bygone ages the wants f he:
Papal government were far greater than now.
It was one the successor and representative
of the old Roman Empire. A line of able
Pontifs strengthened it by their wisdom aol
adlorned it by their talente . All christemndn
revered it arid aided it in its contests with un
believers. Peter's pence, tithesandejubilee gifts
were poured intoits roflers. The pcnitentild
off- rings of wealthy sinners a;d the dolatil.
of dying lords built up productive moInlti
establishments, whose princely incomes were
shared with the treasury o the llHoly See. The
Pope could then maintain armies and fleets,
by which to command respect for his temporal
decrees from powerful monarchs and to the
remotest regions of the earth. tI. was at that
time a king of kings with an unsen silent in
fluence extending throughout all nations. All
this is changed. A bull of excommunication
would not now cause half the uneasiness to
any European sovereign that would be pro
duced by an incendiary missal from some
popular revolutionary chief. True catholics
will never cease to revere the august head of
the church : but they pay to him a spiritual
reverence only, and not the obedience of sub
jects to a sovereign. He cannot command
their substance as might his predecessors of
the middle ages before saucy Henry of England
began to despoil monasteries.
In making this appeal for pecuniary assis
tance, His Holiness makes it a purely busi
ness transaction, pursuing in this respect a
course widely different fromn that adopted by
most representatives of ecclesiastical bodies
in need of funds. He enters the stock market
like any secular dealer and offers his bonds as
an investment worthy of the attention of capi
talists. The amount ($4,000,000) which he
hopes to raise in this country is comparatively
small, and there is no doubt the archbishops,
bishops and clergy will employ in behalf of
this loan, all their eloquence and influence
among monied laymen, who are not wont to bei
backward in any good work. While few
among American thnrucicrs would probably re
commend this investment on the score of pros
pectioe profits, many wealthy catholics will
doubtless avail themselves of this opportunity
to give a substantial token of their zealous de- I
votion to the cause of the church and of their
profound reverence for the Polpe. The pro
posed loan being in snbstance an appeal to thel
piety of American catholics and not to the
cupidity of capitalists in general, it is hardly
appropriate to discuss its merits in the osprct
of spc 'ueiios.
The Philadenlpha Canveantian.
Below we publish a copy of the explanator:
circular issued by the conservative committed
in Washington. It will be seen that the effce
and intention of this circular are such as w0
have already attributed to it. Its object it
merely to obtain a representation of the vari
ous States, essentially popular in character.
In the Northern States this object is to be at
tained by the appointment of delegates iron:
"both political parties," either acting sepa.
rately or in concert. In the South the fact it
recognized that the two parties referred to d,
not exist, and hence, as to Louisiana, the greal
popular prganization known as the Nationn:
Democratic may, either through its members,
or through its executive committee, appoint
delegates to represent the people of the State.
This duty has already been discharged and it
is, therefore, entirely superfluous for any other
organization to send delegates, especially as
the Democratic party embraces the whole peo
ple of the Statewith the exception of ginme
small and numerically insignificant fractions.
The following is the circular referred to :
WASssNGTON, D. C., July10, 1866t.-Your imme
diate and earnest attenton is invited to the annexed
call for a national convention, issued by tha na
tiospl Union exeuontive committee, and the accom
patying indorsement thereof by prominent gen
tlemen who are well known to the ouontry.
The undersigned have been duly appointed a
committee to facilitate and expedite, by corres
poodeace and otherwise, such action as may seem
nrecesary to bring together at Philadelphia a con
vention of the ablest men of the nation, without
reoard to their party antecrdents, who favor gene
rally the restoration policy President Johnson hlas
advocated as against the dalngerous course pursued
by the majority of Cungleas.
