TUB SIXTII OPINION OF THE RECONSTRUCTION COMM IT TEE. Fifty thoiuand copies of the report of the committee on re com traction are to be printed At the expense of the country, and the frank ing privilege ti toon to be set in motion, and the land U ere long to be flooded with this xnadeip, one-tided, prejudiced, and partisan concoction. This does not at all surprise us, m we hare always regarded the committee itself as a caucus creation for political pur poses, and Its report Is nothing more or less than an electioneering document It has been prepared with all the care and ingenuity that radical ability and radical intrigue could command. All that can be said for " the omissions and commissions" of the Thirty Ninth Congress is brought out in this cam paign paper. The report winds up with ten elaborate opinions upon national mat ters; but It is concerning opinion "No. 6" that we propose to say a few words to-day. "No. 6 M is a marvel of reckless disregard to truth, and a shameful slander on the vir tue, intelligence, and patriotism of the people of this country. If its views of the situation : or Its notions of the future are correct, then might we all abandon our hopes of free in stitutions; and every sincere patriot would with propriety "despair of the Republic." We do not believe that Qod has given to mortal man the power to manage the English language so that it will ever again in one paragraph contain so many unmitigated and unreasonable falsehoods, or convey so much injustice to the southern, and so much hu miliating defamation of the northern section of this nation, as the sixth opinion fulmi nates, " No. 6" launches out with the state ment "that the question before Congress is, whether conquered enemies have the right and shall be permitted, at their own pleasure, and on their own term$, to participate in making laws for their conquerors. A large portion of this remarkable report is occupied in severe censure of The Pbesidzxt in inter fering in the work of reorganizing the lately rebellious States. Tax Fa is id est is cross examined with all the array of legal talent with whfeL Uie committee was surfeited, as to his antirurity in stating to the southern people the terms and the conditions upon which they would be recognized by the Ad ministrative branch of Government; and what acts and concessions and constitutional pro visions would be required on their part to meet the demands of legislative requirements. It is admitted by the report that, following Tiie Pbksidest" suggestions, the southern people in their State capacity gave validity to the great amendment abolishing slavery; repudiated all rebel obligations, and every jot and tittle of law and liability arising from-l tne ordinances of secession, and utterly ex orcised themselves of the fatal heresy of mate allegiance ty affirming in the organic acta of the separate States paramount obli gation to the authority of the United States and implicit obedience to its laws. But the right of the Executive to demand these stip ulations Is denied by the committee ; and a serious charge made against the South Is that to these terms it has given an unwilling as sent and a hesitating adhesion. If, as the committee say, the terms required by Tux Pbesidcnt were reluctantly yielded, what becomes of the statement that the question now Is whether conquered enemies are to be permitted, "at their own pleasure and on their own terms" to help make taws for their conquerors? It Is proven by their own words to be a bold, bad and baseless false hood. Again, in "No. 6," we find that the ques tion iswhelher "conquered rebels may change their theatre of operations from the battle field," "to the halls of Congress, and through their representatives seize the Government which they fought to destroy, It is a committee of American Senators and Representatives that publish such Infamous misrepresentations of the present position as the above. The man that wrote the sentence quoted, and the men who signed it, knew it to be utterly without truth, or else their ig norance iff so flagrant that it Is deplorable that they Occupy high and responsible sta tions. Jlebels on the battle-field -sought to separate themselves from the Union the people of the South now, through their rep resentatives, are endeavoring to reappear in the Union. Rebels on the battle-field sought to make an independent nation, based on human slavery, and recognizing the principle of State superiority over confederacies and unions. The Southern people now ask to become a recognized portion of the Ameri can nation, which prohibits the possibility of human slavery, and assumes that the ulti mate submission of the citizen and the State is due to the Federal Government Tho question, therefore, it not whether conquered rebels shall, through "their representatives seize the Government they sought to de stroy; but whether now, in obeisance to that Government; now pledged to Its support and defence; now having no other Interest and no other destiny but what Is bound up in its fate, eight millions of people are to be regarded as subjects or as citizens, and whether eleven States are to be permitcd representa tion In the national councils to speak and vote for the measures and laws which is to a feet the welfare of one third of the Republic, pro vided that the representatives which are sent are not only loyal now, but can prove, by oath, that they never sought to "destroy tho Government" The question Is, shall loyal men, representing a vast section of the land whose people are in complete subjection to proper authority, be allowed to enter uon- Kress T That question this committee have m vain tried to befoir with their electioneer ing phrases ot "conquered rebels," "conquered enemies, and "Government seizlnm" but It will take more than fifty thousand copies ot A una cvugreHionai "Whitewashing" to blind the eyes or wool the ears of the neonle. The , people understand the question, and will not be misled, by an attempt at panics or ' frights from the- plsin and practical Issue j vMch is 1 this to be one Union. Are the jrbolo people to t governed by iimiiu in. stitutions T Is this a Government of thirty six or twenty-five States f Shall loyal men go Into Congress from whatever section they may hall ? On these issues we hare no fear or the people; tnev will demand inai an loyai men shall enter the halls of legislation; and rf the Thirty-ninth Congress is incompetent to decide whether a man Is loyal or not, or properly 'elected or not, the Fortieth Con gress will have the necessary amount of in telligence to settle such points.
