CONGRESSIONAL PLAN OF SUFFRAGE.
Tho Cinstitutional right of our Representatives
to be admitted to their seats in Congress is as un
v doubted as that of our Senators, and as both rest
npon .tho same grounds, our remarks in our issue
of last -week apply to tho one as well as to the oth?
er. We therefore refrain from further discussing
the point, knowing full well that it is uboIcss to
argue constitutional points with the dominant par?
ty, and that tho appetencies of that party are to?
wards a total rejection of all constitutional limita?
tions. Radical theories are solemnly propounded
&8 the supreme law of the land, and where tho
Constitution forbids the recognition and enforce?
ment of such theories, that instrument is cither
contemptuously set aside, or, as far as possible,
amended to co.ver thoir theories. Having succeed?
ed during tho last session of Congress in prevent?
ing our Senators and Representatives from taking
their seats, the Republicans advanced one step
farther, and in their proffered amendment to the
Constitution, assumed for Congress a constitutional
right to reguiate the right of suffrage within the
States. Of all their invasions of the constitution?
al rights of the States, this is the most palpable,
arrogant and untenable. Just so far as the Con?
stitution asserts any control over the question of
suffrage, that power has been exhausted in the in?
strument itself, and establishes a constitutional
qualification which may not be abolished or alter?
ed by Congressional enactment.
The Constitution says: "The Electors in each
State shall have the qualifications requisite for
Electors of the most numerous branch of tho State
Legislature." Article 1.?Section 2. Does this
clause of the Constitution protend to fix the right
of suffrage in a State ? So far from it, it clearly
ramits the whole question to the authority and ac?
tion of the State. If Massachusetts permits ne?
groes to vote for Representatives to her Legisla?
ture, then tho constitutional right of the negro to
vote for her Representatives to Congress is estab?
lished beyond a doubt. But his right to do so is
conferred, not by the Constitution or by Congress,
for both are powerless to confer the right, but by
action of the State itself, in declaring him a Citi?
zen and enfranchising him. As the right of suf?
frage is regulated by each State for itself, the
qualifications of voters are as varied as the legisla?
tion of the different States. In South Carolina,
?11 free white men, native born or naturalized, of
the age of twenty-one years, are recognized as
citizens, and are alone entitled to vote and hold
office. She does not, in a political sense, recog?
nize the Negro, Indian or Chinaman as a citizen,
nor authorize them to vote for her members of the
Legislature; if not, then by the express terms of
the Constitution of the United States, they have
no right to vote for her Representatives to Con?
gress. Her action is as final and conclusive as
that of Massachusetts, and there is no appeal from
the decision of either of them. Massachusetts
has declared the negro a citizen and entitled to
vote. South Carolina has decided to the reverse,
and Congress is as impotent under the Constitu?
tion to compel Massachusetts to disfranchise tho
negro, as it is powerless to enforce South Carolina
to enfranchise him. Tho members of tho State
Legislatures are the constitutional electors to
choose C. S. Senators, and will any cne pretend
that Congress has the right to establish the quali?
fications of members of the State Legislatures ?
And yet, why not, if it has the right to say who
shall vote for Representatives T Section 4, Article
I, of the Constitution reads thus : "Tho times,
places and manner of holding elections for Sena?
tors and Representatives shall bo prescribed in
each State by the Legislatures thereof; but Con?
gress may at any time by law make or alter ouch
regulations, except as to the places of choosing
Senators;" which article, the Radicals assert,
vesta in Congress the power "to make or alter by
taw such regulations as shall be prescribed in each
State by the Legislatures thereof as to the manner
of electing Senators and Representatives." This
is a barefaced assumption. The clause has
no reference to tho qualifications of voters within
the States, but applies simply to the formalities of
time;- place and method under which elections
should be conducted?it refers to the lime when the
election shall be held, the place at which the polls
shall be opened, and the manner of voting. This
view Is sustained by the words of Madisox, used
at the time of its adoption. He says. "These
were words of great latitude. It was impossible
to foresee all the abuses that might bo mado of the
discretionary power; whether the electors should
vote by ballot or viva voce ; should assemble at this
place or that place; should be divided into dis?
tricts, or all meet at one place; should all vote for
the representatives, or all in a district vote for a
number allotted to tho district?these and many
other points would depend on the Legislatures, and
might materially affect the appointment." (8d
Vol. Madison papers, page 1280.)
How far Mr. Madison favored this cheek on the
Legislatures, and tho meaning whioh he attached
to the restriction contained in tho clause, he in?
forms us in the Federalist, page 279. Speaking
of tho power to be conferred upon the national
government, he says: "Its authority would be
expressly restricted to the regulation of tho times,
the places and manner of elections. The qualifica?
tions of the persons who may choose or bo chosen,
as has been remarked upon another occasion, are
defined and fixed in the Constitution, and are un?
alterable by the Legislature." For further confir?
mation of our riews of this clause, see Towles'
Analysis of the Constitution, page 81, and road
the clause as offered in the report of the commit?
tee on details, and the various modifications of the
clause until it was adopted in its present shape.
The words were changed to restrict the meaning
of the sentence, and make it strictly applicable to
the words "times, places and manner."
The construction of the Radioals, to disfranchise
Southern voters, is not only violativc of tho plain?
est provisions of tho Constitution, but all recogni?
sed construction of the language of a written Con?
stitution, which is the basis of law.

REPORT OF GEH. SICKLES.
The report of tho commanding General in this
Department has been submitted to the Secretary
of War, and is published in several exchanges.?
We can ouly present some general extracts, but
must congratulate the people of Anderson that
this officer has designated our District as "all
quiet." Tho following is a roview of the opera?
tions and conditions of affairs during the year: j
Tho military occupation of the territory by de?
tachments of garrisoning postB, embracing one or
more counties, has restored order, afforded ?eou- |
rity for person and property, and encouraged tho I
resumption of agricultural, industrial aud com?
mercial employments. For the necessary garri?
sons and'the detachments required to mako the
post organination efficient throughout the depart?
ment, tiirec battalions of infantry and throe squad?
rons of cavalry, with four companies of artillery
for the forts aud permanent works, will be suffi?
cient.
Notwithstanding the gravity of some exceptional
occurrences incident to the close of a long war,
tranquility and order have beeu restored under
martial .law, contemporaneously with successivo
concessions of jurisdiction to civil authority, and
the gradual reduction of tho army to peaco estab?
lishment.
In certain localities dislurbod by bands of out?
laws, many of them fugitives from justice in these
and other States, and paroled rebel soldiers, who
continue to commit the' worst, crimes and disturb
tho peaee of neighborhoods, the exercise of the
power of arrest and punishment under martial law
is the only reliable security for life and property.
The civil authorities fail to suppress these organi?
zations and punish the outrages committed. Mag?
istrates, constablos, jurors and witnesses, residing j
far from a garrison, are intimidated by threats of j
retaliation from enforcing tho ordinary legal re
I medies against these bandits and guerillas.
, The material prosperity of these States, injured
almost irreparably by the war, seems likely to be
restored through emancipation. Although some
time must elapso before their productions will be
equal in quantity to the product before the war,
tho increased value of the staples raised will Boon
make up the equivalent. Capital, enterprise and
population are coming from the North. With
these will be provided increased facilities for cul?
ture, manufacture and trade. Remarkable success
has rewarded many diligont and judicious plant?
ers, who have paid liberal wages in cash, and
treated their laborers kindly. Evidence accumu?
lates to prove the general disposition of the negroes
to work voluntarily and faithfully for wages, or
for themselves as tenants and as small proprietors.
Education, the enjoyment of their earnings, the
security of family ties, the possession of civil
rights, and the practice of Divine worship, are ex?
erting their salutary influence upon the conduct,
intelligence and thrift of tho freed people. Tho
two races, alienated by war and suddenly separa?
ted by emancipation, are becoming gradually re?
conciled.
Thero arc good reasons for the boliof that tho
fortunate exemption of this department from tho
riots and turbulent collisions which have occurred
elsewhere is attributable in the main to tho pro?
hibition of all armed organizations, whether of |
police, patrols "regulators" or militia. Tho or?
ganization of an efficient police and constabulary
in the several towns and counties has been uni?
formly encouraged, and tho troops have always
supported the civil authority in the execution of J
the laws and in the preservation of order whenever
the employment of armed force has been neces?
sary aud proper. Tho lawful enrolment of the
militia has not been preventod; but while tho
United States forces occupy tho territory no occa?
sion is likely to arise for tho servico of any other
armed force.
The annexed paragraphs upon "Rebel Associa?
tions" will be particularly interesting to tho people
of this section, but wo aro compelled to regret that
the General has not added an account of tho out?
rages committed by the command charged with the
investigation alluded to:
It has likewise been found necessary to prohibit
associations of assemblages composed of persons
who served im the rebel armies, and having for
their object the perpetuation of any military or
other organization engaged in the rebellion. This
prohibition has not been enforced against any so?
ciety which has, in good faith, confined its action
to the charitable relief of disabled and indigent
survivqr8, and tho ordinary observances for the
burial of the dead
Recently a meeeting of one of these associations
was made the occasion for an address delivered by
General Wade Hampton, in which he is reported
to have commented upon tho Government and tho
armies of the United States, and especially upon
the operations of Generals Sherman and Sheridan,
in a manner well calculated to incite discontent
and hostility against the authorities of the United
States. I have directed an inquiry into the matter,
in order that the atisociation of rebel soldiers may
be suppressed, and General Hampton admonished
to observe the terras of his parole, if, upon investi?
gation, it shall appear to have been disregarded in
this instance. ?
