THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 17,1867.
PARDONS.
Much has been said of late about the Presi?
dent's pardoning power, anti the Radicals, with
characteristic narrow-mindedness, have re?
pealed thc Act of Congress which assumed a
superior meaning to the constitutional powers
conferred upon tho President. As a matter of
curiosity to the Radicals, we publish the sub?
joined "Act of Pardon and Oblivion," paBsed by
the North Carolina State Legislature in 1783,
"for the benefit of such American citizens in that
State as had supported the King and Parliament
during the war of tho Revolution." It will be
remembered by tho readers of history, that
soon after tho war the British Government
adopted an Act which extended full pardon and
amnesty to such British subjects as had aided
the Colonies in obtaining their independence.
Thus it seems that "the barbarians" of one
I hundred years ago were superior to tho present
advanced Puritanical civilization in sympathy
for mankind and their misfortunes, lt will be
seen from thc "Act" we publish that our fathers
would not only pardon an offence, called by
GEORGE III. treason, but that they were willing
t hat the offence should be buried in "oblivion."
They knew, good men they were, and honest
and true, that thousands of good citizens con?
scientiously believed that they owed their first
allegiance to their mother country, and they,
therefore, had no idea of persecuting them for
their honest convictions. Tho war being over,
they believed that such citizens, if taken by the
band, would be as faithful to the new govern?
ment as they had been to the old. The follow?
ing is the Act referred to :
AN ACT OF FARDOS AND OBLIVION.
WHEREAS, It is tho policy of all wise States, on
tho termination of ntl civil wars, to grant an Act
of pardo i and oblivion for past offences: And, aa
divers of tho citizens of thia Ptate, and other in?
habitants thereof, in the course of the late un?
happy war, have become liable to great pains and
peua?tiea for offences committed against tho peace
and government of this State: And the General
Assembly, out of our earnest desire to observe tho
article- of peace, and on all occasions disposed to
forgivo offences rather than punish, where thc
necessity for an exemplary punishment has ceased :
Bo it therefore enacted by tho General Assembly
of the State of North Carolina, and il is hereby
enacted by tho authorities of the same, that ali
manner of treasons, misprison of treason, felonv
or misdemeanor, committed or done since the 4th
day of July, 1776, by any person or persons,
whatsoever," bo pardoned, rel aaa ed, and putin total
oblivion.
We could ask.. Congres i-but" what is the use
ofv asking them anything ?-to contrast this
language and spirit with that evinced by
them just now, whose doings are calculated to
engender a feeling of hatred that will live long
after this generation shall have passed away.
WENDELL VJBILLUPS AND TSE GREEKS.
On Monday, tho 7th inst., the Philhettenes
had a grand meeting in Boston, to express
their sympathy with the Candiotes in their
present unequal struggle against the Turks.
WESDELL PHILLIPS, it appears, was-the Cory?
phaeus of these modern Greeks, and he then
and there arose and made a mighty speech, full
of HOMER and CICERO, ARISTOTLE and VIRGIL.
The modern Athenians listened o?wi -J
me Vourrier des Etats Unis goes to the trouble
of criticising this classic oration, and while it
fully concurs with tho meeting, in an expres?
sion of sympathy for the Candiots, it at the
same time shows that the new ^Athenian orator
was not very well informed on matters per?
taining to either modern or ancient Greece.
Mr. P. discovers an analogy in the character
and conditions of the people of Greece and
New England, upon which the Courtier re?
marks : If this is said of the ancient Greeks,
we do not see how they have merited such deg?
radation ; they, who have given to the world
so much that is great and beneficial,-who have
carried to the pinnacle of perfection all that |
can elevate the soul or invigorate the intellect,
-while New England has never produced aught
but cant and sewing machines.
But. if Mr. PHILLIPS had reference to the
modern Greeks, we still cannot see any reason
for his comparison. True, tie proverbial charac?
ter of the modern Greek for commercial hon?
esty is only so-so ; and in this alone can we
see any truth in the comparison. But ' in this,
also, great injustice Is done to the Greeks ; for j
this odium has been thrown upon them because
of the unprincipled conduct of their country?
men in other lands, rather than from any short?
comings of the great mass of the home popu?
lation. Mr. PHILLIPS endeavored to show that
the Greeks and the Yankees resembled each
other like two drops of water; whereas it^
would be difficult to find two natures more dif?
ferent, and who, with a. thousand striking con?
trasts, have but one point' of. analogy,-and
that is, that they are both very sharp at a bar?
gain. '
The Courrier winds up .a long article on the
subject by saying, that this whole matter was
no business of the Americans ; and that Europe
must establish-a sort of MONROE doctrine of j
its. own to ' keep the Yankees from intermed?
dling with its affairs, just as the latter do not
permit thc Powers of Europe to interfere on
this Continent.
CONGRESSIONAL GAB.
A few days ago we__ called the attention of |
our readers to the probabilities-of an early
great National Whiskey Distillery Consolida?
tion. Now it is our duty to advertise the new
gas enterprise, prepared by Congress,-not
mere buncomb, tii8,time, but genuine carbu
rated hydrogen. Congress will soon bake all
the bread, light the lamps, and wash the dirty
linen. We are rapidly drifting into a great !
communistic .despotism. The following, from
one of our exchanges, will explain the new
evolution of gas:
"A great revolution is about to take place in
the method of supplying gas in all the cities in
the Union. Under the new plan it ia content- |
plated to manufacture gas on a large Beale,
with immense .works, in the ? immediate ' neigh?
borhood of the coal mines, where .ebal can be
purchased for fifty cents, per. ton, and to con?
vey it through mains to the several cities,
where it can be consumed at 'one-quarter its
present?ost. The Atlantic cities -and interior |
cities of the Northern States will be supplied
from the coal mines of Pennsylvania direct '
from one company. Another will manufacture
at the coal mines of Virginia and North Caro?
lina, and supply the Southern cities and towns/
The West will get their gas from the Missouri
mines ; and so on throughout the Union. These
several projects will be conducted aB national
affairs, under the authority pf Congress! The !
immense advantages of such a system are at
once apparent. They /each not only - to the
great reduction'in price, but to the improve?
ment in the quality of the gas, and the banish?
ment of gat manufacturing nuisances from the'
sities. Preparations are already in a forward
condition for the consummation of this desira?
ble reform, and it will be an established fact
in less than throe years from the present time/'
