From the New Tork Tribune.
The Issue Between the Present and
me reopie.
The worst deeds acts of the motl fatal conse-
3uences are often committed in the holiest name,
ames Buchanan acted on the principle that if ono
portion of the Union socedes, the other portion hat
no ricbt of coercion ; and he appealed, ia proof, tr
ibe object of the people'- veneration the Federal
Constitution. Had the people followed bis lead, the
Boutb would have had her owa way. She would
have enforced her claim to take her property, in
cluding her slave property, into any part cf the
United States, and to use it there. The American
Union would have become a Slaye Empir. The
prest experiment of self-govsmment in North
America would have proved a failure. But the
people, whose common sense is too strong ior fine
drawn 6ophiftry, said : We have a right to pre
serve our Union ; peaceably if we can, forcibly if
we must." They went to war, in spite of Buchan
an's constitutional argument. Senator Andrew
Johnson sustained and justified the war. lie was
very wrone then, or else he is very wrong now. If
war is justifiable, as not in violation of the Consti
tution, so also are its necessary incidents. But the
present state of things in the South and the provis
ions enacted by Congess for its regulation are, in
the strictest sense, incidents to the late civil wa.
Mr. Johnson declared it to be his duty, under his
oath of office, to veto these provisions ; and ever
since his veto was overruled he has done what one
man may to defeat their operation. The reason he
gives is that they violate the Constitution. That
reason would be sound if the people of the South
ern States had never levied war against the Gov
ernment, and never, by that act, become public en
emies. But war gives new rights. War impose! new
duties. War annuls all previous treaties, conven
tions, agreement, how solemn soever. The rights
which these socurod during peace art lost, when war
is waged, to those who lew it. The ordinary right
of war alone remain ; and" these, during a civil war
like ours, do net include protection under a Consti
tution which it was the object of thoce who com
menced that war to destroy. By our Constitution
the home and eCec?J of te citizen are inviolate,
excopt after warrant issued, upon probable cause
and under oath, specially describing the -premises.
Doe this apply to the house of a rebel in an insur
rectionary State ? The Constitution declares that
the citizen shall not be deprived cf lifo, liberty, or
property, without due process of law. But what
process of law did we servo oa the Confederates at
Antietam or Gcttri burg before we opened a battery
on their ranks ? Vhat process of law preceded the
confinement of our prisoners of war, or our appro
priation of the eneray'i ammunition or commissary
stores ? The Constitution is admirable in its place,
but it do not embrace all subjects. It has no arti
cle treatiag of the rights of war. Its framers wall
knew thr.t the nation might engage in war, foreijn
or civil, but they knew, also, that for ruch acontin
fftnry thr ru'-x yrwii O'li.'ljfrcf th Con
stitution. They knew that we were tot only a na
tion whose organic law was embodied ia a written
Constitution, but also one of the society of civilized j
nations, the laws governing which springs from the j
common consent and uee.ee of that aociety. They
knew that we were bound by these laws, but they
did not think it necessary cr proper to insert them
in the Constitution.
Mr. Johnson alleges, in justification of the exer
tions he baa made, and is making, to defeat the will
of Congre's, that the constitutional rights of South
ern citizens, suspended only during war, revive as
soon as the enemy lays down his arms. That is bad
law. A treaty, or any other compact, made during
peace and canceled by war, does not revive with the
cessation of hostilities. The matter is then as open
to negotiation as if no treaty or compact had been
made. A treaty ia the same words, or with differ
ent conditions, may be entered into; but this de
pends on the concurrence of the parties wb may
contract. It avails, therefore, nothing to tells us
that the Constitution provides that each State shall
be represented in the Lower House, that no Stat
shall, without its consent, be deprived of its equal
suffrage in the Senate ; and that inasmuch as Con
gress withholds from the ex-insurrectionary States
representation in the ilouse and the Senate, the
Constitution suffers violation. It suffers violation
just as much as it did during the rebellion, when the
enemy was deprived of his lue, liberty, ana proper
ty, without due process of civil law just a much,
and no more. Tho incidents of war do notecase as
socn as the sword is sheathed, A just war is waged,
not for the purpwe of destruction, but of security.
The war over, important duties press upon Ihg
victor. Every publicist of repute has set forth
(what common sonse suggests) that a victorious na
tion ought to prctoct itself, not only against imme
diate but against prospective danger. Vttel says;
" When a conqueror has subdued a hostile nation,
he may, if prudence so require, render her incapa
ble of doing mischief with the same ease in future.
If the safety of the State lies at stake, our
precaution and foresight cannot beexlonded too far.
Must we delay to avert our ruin till it has become
inevitable? An injury gives a right to
provide for our future safety by depriving the unjust
aggressor of the means of injuring us."
If those words stood in the Constitution would
Mr. Johnson assert that Congrera had overstepped ,
its duty ; that it had no right to provide for the fu
ture taJcty of the nation 44 by depriving the unjust
aggressor of the means of injuring ua ?" But is the
right loss clear or the duty less imperative because
there are set forth in the Law of Nations and not
in our organic law T Does patriotism, according to
Mr. Johnson, consist in ignoring International law?
" The Constitution, the whole Constitutien," that is
ell ; but nothing but the Constitution," is that
the Presidential doctrine? It is related, as our
readers may remember, of a certain Moslem Van
dal, conqueror of Alexandria, that when the fate of
its celebrated library was referred to him, ha con
aignad ii to tk aaa, . -at ...
writings agree with the Koran they are useless and
need not be preserved ; if they disagree, they are
pernicious, ad ought to be destroyed. Are the
pages of Grotius and Vattel good for nothing bet
ter than to be used as fuel to heat the baths of the
White House ? Is President Johnson, in the Nine
teenth centurv, but as far advanced in liberality of
sentiment as Caliph Omar was in the Seventh. At
all events, we consider his position to-day less ten
able than that of Buchanan in 1P0. Buchanan
appealed to the Constitution against what he fore
saw would be a terrible war, marked with incalcu
lable bloodshed, to be followed by sectional heart
burnings after its close. The war is fought through ;
there are half a million f dead; three thousand
millions are expended. Johnson, approving He
sacrifices which the nation has made, sett himself to
render her past sacrifices futile and unavailing, to
defeat the liorts of her prudonce and foresight,- to
circumvent her endeavors to provide for her future
4afcty. He thiaVs we have a right to destroy, hut
no to save ; a right to fight thebatUe, but no r!gtt
to s.1 th t1, fruil of victory.
It m.xT e'er let us put upon the Presi
dent's wk tffcr g"t Congas the most charitable
interpreUU11 :a t may be that he erprovei
the object of wconatracuoa acta, detiret to see

their K.'pretentativos, have decided that, to
the public tafctv, roeon.Ntruction sta.l be effected in

tiide Andrew Johnscn or the peoplo? they who
fought the battle and have to pay the score, or a
man, never voted tor ac rrcsuor.t, whom tne peo

The issue, bo it remarked, Is not whether the plan
f reconstruction as devised by the people through
their representatives, and passed by overwhelming
majorities, is the lst lind wist that could have
been contrive!. The real issue is much simpler
than this. It turns on the question who had a right
to deve and to pais it ? Who had a right to judge
how carefully guarded it should be: bow stringent
should be it several enactment ? There is but one
an wot prfsible to those qufU'"ns. And, for that
ressun, there can be but one solution of the present
Aifiknltif. We do not want a king here, nor any
one arrogating more than kingly authority. We
intend that our lar, when passed by the legislative

We call upon Andrew Johnson to complete the
record c correspondence published in yesterday's
Chronicle by furnishing the letter from Gen. Grant
marked "private:' la his letter remonstrating
sgsinst General Sheridan's removal, General Grant
says : " '
"I beg to refer to a letter, marked private, which
I wrote to the President when first consulted on the
subject of the change in the War Department. It
bears upon tho subject of this removal, and I bad
hoped would Lave prevented it,"
We should be the last in tha world to ask the
President to break the confidence of private corres
pondence, although it would bu in strict accordance
with Andrew Johnson's usage. In the present cass,
however, be has authorized the publication of a cor
respondence strictly official, t.nd the letter of Gen.
Grant refers in terms which cannot b

undoubtedly expresses the views of General Grant
in regard to the projected removal of Secretary
Stanton, and as the reference thereto in his official
letter takes from it its private character, and makes
it part of the official record, we call upon tho Pres
ident to do justice to General Grant and satisfy the
mind of the nation by giving it up for publication.

NUMBER 31.
THE CAMPAIGN IX OHIO.
KnoxTllle Foundry and Machine Shop.
We are happy to note every introduction of val
uable enterprise into Tennessee. This is eminently
one of the sort. The gentleman at the bead of thu
enterprise, Judge J. W. North, was for 6ome time
a resident of New York. Afterwards .be took a
prominent part in the organization of Minnesota,
indeed, one of the considerable towns took its name
from him. More recently, by Mr. Lincoln's ap
pointment, he was Judge of Nevada. On account
of feeble health he sought the salubrious climate of
Tennessee, and devotes himself to the establishment
of this foundry and machine shop. He has associ
ated with him Messrs. Prescott, Jenkins and Clark,
gentlemen of experience and skill in the depart
ments under their charge. Their works are situat-sl
between the depot of the Kncxville and Kentucky
Railroad and these of the East Tennessee and Vir
ginia and the Enst Tennessee and Georgia Bailroad,
favorable for a side track on which to run their ma
terial and manufactures. They have wisely plan
ned to meet the immediate wants of the surround
ing country, whether railroad, agricultural or me
chanical, and consequently do every variety of brass
and iron casting, intending to use the iron and coal
so abundant in the State, and so illustrate m the
ground the true philosophy for Tennessee.
Notwithstanding their far-seeing purpose, calcu
lated to be so beneficial to every interest of the lo
cality, the enterprise has received not a few sneers
at its Yankee origin, and for a time tome would go
elsewhere for the sake of trading with a Southern
institution, but sensible men have generally come
to see this folly and rebuke it. They see how such
an enterprise contributes to the development of the
vast natural resources of the State, and meets at
their doors a most pressing demand.
We are glad to know that this company have from
the first had a good run of business. Some twenty
five or thirty men are employed, and they are ex-
pandipg their works la accordance witu wnai tney
hav to do. In the miest of the most magnificent
native supply ef the beet coal and iron, so far tbey
have found it Imrxwsibl to procura tha qualities re
quired in their works without going a considerable
distance. Coal, so abundant within forty miles of
Knoxville. will soon be reached by the Knoxville
and Kentucky Bailroad. Companies are forming
to work valuable iron mines in the vicinity. Soon,
under the lead of this foundry and machine shop
we may expect nature, now so silent and useless,
will yield up at hand not only a full supply of the
raw material, but of the manufactured articles in
all varieties, bow procured at a dietanca at so great
a coEt for transportation. Memphis Post.
Colored Schools.
Knoxville, Aug. 30lh, 1867.
Editor cf the Knoxville Whig:
In a former communication,! noticed the colored
schools of this place and surrounding country, car
ried on under the supervision and control of the
United Presbyterian Church. I propose, in thij
present communication, to notice those under the
control of the Garnet League. The Garnet League
is an association of colored people, with headquar
ters in the city of Earrisburg, Pa., for the purpose
of assisting the recently emancipated slaves in edu
cation. Thia League has auxiliary Leagues in
divers portions of the country. The one ia this
place ia known asthe Winan's nigh School League,
and ia connection with this League is a school num
bering from one hundred and fifty to two hundred
scholars. This school was conducted by Profeesbr
O. L. C. Hughes and Mrs. Jones, who, for their
qualifications and success as teachers, I have sever
seen surpassed. The conduct of the scholars was
good and commondable, tbey being strictly atten
tive to their studies, and make groat proficiency in
learning to read and write, and in mental arithme
tic; also, one class in Geography was quite ad
vanced. Two boys, William I'rtnklin and Jerry
Jarnagon, will, if encouraged, make speakers of
which any community might be proud. There is
also an auxilliary League at Dandridge and Mossy
Creek, in Jefferson county, with a school at each
place, which have done a noble work in the cause
of education.
I wish not to take up too much space in your val
uable paper at one time, yet will write from time
to titne such communications in regard to the col
ored schools of the country as shall come under my
notice. Respectfully,
' P. Schadi.
Jefferson Darls.
Jefferson Davis, since his release from prison, has,
in the main, kept himself in discreet seclusion.
Only once or trice has he allowed himself to be
brought to pubLc view. He recently visited Ver
mont, and found an opportunity to mark the feeling
of the poople toward him. A woman who had lost
a son in the war asi-ailed bim with stones, and a gen
tleman refused to allow the arch-traitor to be driven
Uxutgli Hie .tint-1-- vnman' m.l i tA rt r-
senting her wrongs and those of the country was
neither elegant nor proper, and yet she rudely ex
pressed the feelinc of the great majority of her
countrywomen.. The conduct of the gentleman
who refused to allow Davis to be driven through his
estate strikes us as eminently proper, and indicates
the true method of dealing with the great traitor.
If he is never to be tried, let him at least keep out
of sight. Let him find a home on foreign soil, or if
he visits the country he sought to destroy and which
he deluged with blood, let him com in disguise and
remain in concealment.
This is demanded by a sense of national decency.
His allowed presence in our streets and public re
sorts would be an offence against the country's dig
nity, as well as a source of perpetual irritation. His
release oa straw-bail, and Mr. Greeley's glorifica
tion of his cwn share in it, were followed by an out
break of indignation which was weil-nigh universal.
Nothing is plainer than that the people will cot
tolerate the open presence of Davis ia the country.
If it be said that he, is not more guilty than scores
of others, tie ploa may be admitted without weak
ening the force of our demand. Davis had the mis
fortune of bid preeminence. He carried the wicked
confederacy oa his shoulders ; he win the acknowl
edged depositary of all it authority and power;
and the people, whether friends or foes, see in him
tho coafederacy embodied. The rebels honor the
lost cause in him, and the loyal people despise it in
him.
The argument that generous treatment ol tne
head traitor would conciliate the South, must be re
jected; not because we would not conciliate, but be
uuua we vf0xliA not do it wcaklv. The late rebels
ant Davis honored, or at least tolerated, because

Fellow-Citiiena of Ohio:
The party calling itself Democratic, is again ask
ing for the confidence and support of the people of
Ohio, and it is not only proper, but important, to
investigate tho title upon which they put forth their
claims.
As a public political organisation, it is the right
of the people to examine tbeir history, to look into
the career and principles of their candidates, and to
understand the spirit and purpose of the politicians
and leaders who control them if elected.
It is a proposition which cannot be denied by any
intelligent observer of events for the last ten years,
that tho so-called Democratic party was thoroughly
and completely identified with the origin and pro
gress of the rebellion : that, as a Political or-rani.a.
lion, It was a pari of tho rebellion, acting as coun
sellor, sympathizer, furnisher of supplies, and doing
everything in aid of its prosecution that could be
dona ia the loyal States.
When I speak thus I 4o not mean to say that all
us memoers, an wno vote witn it. are eouallv eu 1-
ty, nor do I refer to that patriotic host, who, when
the rebellion broke out, left the Democratic party
and went over to the-sido of tho country. The
masses of the people of all parties intend to do right,
and would if the were let alone; bit I mean its
politicians, its leaders, those who form its cpiniops
uu give iunpe vo lis action.

To eo no further back than tho
we find them assuring the people of tho South, by
t,ciui;ci uorjjapefs ana resolutions oi conven

and that his election as President would be in vio

South would be justified bv everv crinciDla of hinrF
and self-preservation, in resisting, even by force of
nruio, meir accession to power.
These wicked and monstrous falsehoods were re
asserted in every possible form, enforced by all the
vehemence of passion and the graces of rhetoric, and
the question may well be asked how the people of
ne oouin couia reiuse altogether to believe the per
sistent declarations of a large body cf professed
friends in the North, who claimed to speak from
superior knowledge of what was going on in their
miasu , ,
Immediately after the election of Mr.' Lincoln,
the slaveholding rebels of the South, professing to
be animated by a profound belief in the truth of the
declarations and prophecies of the Democratic lead
er of the iNorth, went forward in the work of tho
rebellion, and proceeded to declare the secession of
State after State. Ia this they were enthusiasti
cally cneerea ana earnestly encouraged by the De
mocratic leaaers ot tne jn ortn.
They were assured that the right of secession ex
isted under the Constitution, and that they were ia
tne exercise ot legitimate powers when they assum
ed to marshal their several States out of the Union :
and President Buchanan, in his annual message, in
December, 1860, solemnly declared that the Gov
ernment of the United States had no power to co
erce a State to remain in the Union. This treason
able and bloody utterance was indorsed by every
Democratic Senator and Representative in Con
gress, 6ave two ; by every Democratic orator and
newspaper throughout the North ; by every Demo
cratic member of a State Legislature, with few ex
ceptions; by every Democratic convention held
throughout the North during the winter of 1860
ana lebl, of which 1 have any knowledge.
The people of the South were urecd forward in
the work of secession and rebellion by the assertions
of thousands of political leaders that the Govern
ment should be held still and powerless until it was
consummated; and that the presence of a powerful
body of friends in the North would prevent the
passage of an army, or of a single regiment to the
South, to engage in the wicked and unconstitutional
business of coercing a single State to remain in the
Union. In January, 1861, at the very time tho
Confederate government was being formed, the
Democratic State Convention of Ohio passed a reso
lution pledging 200,000 Democrats, that not
until the North bad done justice to the South would
the Government be allowed to coerce the Suutb.
This gave notice to the rebels that if the Govern
ment attempted to suppress tho rebellion, two hun
dred thousand men in Ohio would be found fight
ing on their side. The people of the South, like the
ancient Egyptians, wore permitted to believe all
these atrocious lies, for the purpose of their damna
tion. Confident ia these assurances, and wita ieel
incs of entire security, eleven States boldly attempt-
ea to mrow oa meir ooiigauons u iuu vuusumuim
of the United States to separate themselves from
the nation, and to establish a new Confederation,
the chief corner-stone of which was human slavery.
With the approbation of President Buchanan and
the Northern Democracy, they rapidly seized, with
out opposition, forts, dock-yards, arsenals, mints,
custom-houses, ships of war, and public property of
every description, until tncro remained cat one lit-

BCCHAKAS'e CABIX1CT A CONCLAVE OF OOXSPIRA-
TORS.
Mr. Buchanan's Cabinet had been a conclave of
conspirators. His Secretary of War had distributed
the arms and munitions, through tho South. His
Secretary of the Navy had scattered our little fleet
to the four corners of the world. His Secretary of
the Treasury had so managed the Treasury as to
leave it without a dollar; ana tnus ail naa been
done that could be to make the rebellion easy. And
when, oa the 1th of March, 1861, the Government
passed from the Democratic to the Kepublican par
ty, seven States had already seceded, and the rest
were getting ready; the Confederate Constitution
and government had been formed at Montgomery,
. . . . e ii ii
ana a l&nieaeraie army oi more loan iinriy mous-
and men had been organized, and all not only with
out opposition from the Government or the Demo
cracy, but with their positive approbation ; and it is
not too much to say that, if the power of Mr. Bu
chanan and the Democratic parly had lasted sixty
days longer, the work of secession, would have been
so fully completed that the Union would have been
lost forever.
But the echo of the first gun against Fort Sumter
awakened tho slumbering patriotism of the people.
The nation sprang to its feet as if suddenly aroused
from deep sleep. The ranks of tho people were
closed up, party lines were obliterated, and the De
mocratic leaders disappeared like drift wood in a
turbalent sea, submerged for a season, but to reap
pear at a future time. They cautiously remained
out of sight till the fall of 1661, when the disasters
of Bull's Bun and Ball Bluff, and the slow pro
gress of the war, gave them courage to put their
heads above the surface and survey the situation.
They immediately began the work of reorganizing
the Democratic party upon the basis of opposition
to the war and rightfulness of the rebellion. The
subsequent terrible defeat and sacrifices suffered bv
McClellan on the Peninsula, inspired them with
high hope and courage, and they so far succeeded in
discouraging tie nation as to carry the fall elections
in TkM. mv Ihnt a troa.onahln rrieK which
were kept up with "ever increasing violence until
the final surrender of Lee before Richmond.
They declared that we could never conquer the
Sopth ; that every act of Congress fos the suppres
sion of the rebellion was nnconstitutional and void.
That our National bonds were worthless; that Trea
sury notes were a -au ; that the act. of Congress
making them a legal tender was a nullity; that the
Northern people were tired of the war, and would
speedily abandon it; that the people . of the North
would resist draft laws, taxation, and every at
tempt to interfere with slavery; that the nation was
on tie verge of bankruptcy, and that if the war was
protracted a revolution in the North was inevitable.
The rebel believed these enormous lies, and pro
tracted the war for more than two years after they
had become convinced that they could not succeed
by force cf arms. For more than two years they
continued the struggle., expecting every day that
something would turn up in the North by which
their triumph would 'be secured.
When hopejlong dferred made tbeii hearts sick,
and despair was coming upon thorn, the Democratic
leaden of the North renewed their exhortations, re
doubled their assurance of assistants and pro
clainied that the boa' of deliverance was at hand.
And, oa the 23th daj f July, 1S4, in he midst cf
tha last great campai,a, when Grant was struggling
through bloody fieldi. to Richmond, and Sherman
fighting his way slp by step to Atlanta, more than
Ua thousand Democratic politicians assembled ia
the city of Chicago, and with a fierce enthusiasm
that threatened to overcome all opposition, declared
the war unconstitutional, wicked, and a failure, and
imperiously demanded that it should be at once
abandoned. Will any man, whose front is not of
brass, tell me that this did not encourage the rebel
lion? I tell you that it did that it cos t us thous
ands of lives, and protracted the w,r for months.
The news sunk like lead into tho harts of our sol
diers, but sent a thrill of hope and exclamations of
joy throughout the rebel camps.
A Bebel Clerk.
Tne -Washington correspondent of tho Boston
AdeeriUcr says :
Among the clerks in the Treasury Department is
a man who is a brother of an ex-rebel commodore,
"ho, at tho time of General Early's attack on this
city, went through the linos to the rebel beadquar
tr, and informed General Early that the city was
ae;t jittod by militia only, and could easily be taken,
