RECONSTRUCTION AND^BjftkJtJ?RCUH.*. Since the passage of th???SlIpIfruction Act, in all that wo have said, we have desired to avoid, and we think we Hate avoided, a tono of controversy. We have expressed, clearly and frankly, our opinions,. and there we have stopped. However earnest our convictions, we have respected the convictions and preju? dices of others, and have always felt and been ready to recognize that on such a question men might differ from us widely, the honesty of whose opinions we were bound to respect. We feel, also, that in our condition nothing could be so unfortunate or so useless as a con? troversy which should excite angry contention and prevent common action by an idle dispute ns to the various motives which might induce, this action. We think so t till, and therefore we reply to the commenting of the Mercury of Saturday, upon the coarse of this paper. We shall not be provoked into a dispute. But it is due to ourselves to state distinctly what we intended to say, what we have said, and what, with all the facts before us, we are willing to repeat We might meet with special criticism the charges of the Mercury, but we prefer very much to deal With the main issue, for to that only can any real public importance attach. We assume that the President intends to act upon the opinion of the Attorney-General, which has been officially published. If he does dot-if this opinion has been published simply to inform the South that the action of the mili? tary Commanders is illegal and oppressive, but that thc Executive, to whom they are respon sible, thinks that his duty is discharged by expressing his opinion, and that we must take thc responsibility of acting on it, then we ar? willing to leave the condemnation of such an act of criminal folly to the Mercury itself. We j have no doubt of thc Ben lenee it would pro-j nounce, j - W? take k, therefore, for granted, and the j telegraphic. report of the late most extraor- I .dinary Cabinet session confirms us, that the I President intends to act upon the Attorney-1 General's opinion, to reverse tho illegal acts of I the military commanders to check the further I development of their usurped authority, and tb confine them within the legitimate bounds of I 'that power conferred by the Act itself, as inter- I prcted by the Attorney-General. \ This course of conduct we think injudicious I in itself-unjust to the military commanders- I and in its consequences most disastrous to ns. After two years of bititer and prolonged oon-1 teat upon his. scheme of reconstruction, the f President failed either to convince or control I Congress, and his plan was rejected. In the place of it and as the expression of the will of those who opposed him, the Reconstruction Act was passed-passed by a constitutional majori ty and became law over his veto. Then was I the time for the President to determine what I he would do-whether he would refuse to exe cute a law unconstitutional, unjust and oppres sive, and appeal to the country to support, him or whether he would recognize thc power of Congress to control his will, admit the force of the law passed without his approval, and as the executive of tho nation, execute tho law repug- j nant as it might bo to his individual convie lions. After mature deliberation he decided I upon the laUcr course. Hedeclared that ho would execute the. law; aa far as lay in his power he did execute it. He selected fivo of? ficers, in whom either he confided himself or who would, he believed, be trusted by those who had passed the law over him. He has al lowed these officers to administer this law for months according to their interpretation; he I has avowed the Northern people to believe that ho accepted tho law as these commanders in? terpreted it, and as no one doubts that the I j Northern people thomsclves inderstood it. He allowed th*c ,( Southern people to believe I that their only hope of speedy restoration!1 to the Union was in their obedience to this I law.. Thc consequence of this action is within ?every man's knowledge The whole country assumed, with the. exception bf a few extreme I ' politicians, that thc mode ofrccomiru.;lion was settled; the Act wont into active operation; J : many I of its provisions were executed, and I . nobody anticipated any difficulty in the execu- I tien of sn?h of its provisions as remain to be accomplished, and a great portion of the time to elapse before its completion had passotTquietly. I j Suddenly, to change this condition of things- I, to provoke again the irritation which had just been allayed on one side and to rekindle tho suspicion which existed on the other-to make the North believe that the terms whioh it im- I \ posed would, not be enforced, and the South I. that the terms which were required need not I tb be performed; to render idle all that had been I i accomplished; to furnish a motive for renewed I ? agitation on.'tho part of extreme Radicals, and j to render a July session of Congress absolutely necessary to explain its own act in the interest of either section, is, in our opinion, a most in judicious policy. Does the Mercury think it I wise ? Next it is unjust to the commanders. Truo, I ] that we have no special interest in them. With I ' their great honor, they took the heavy respon- j. ?ibilitjes, and if the latter prove greater than 11 the former, it is their concern, not ours. But I . it is of importance to us that whatever action I - the President takes in our interest, should not 11 be of that sort whioh makes of these command-1j sra, martyrs to their vindication of the nation- j il will. Now when the sot was passed, tho j President selected, himself, the men into whose I a blands he put its execution. We all know that I " they were summoned to Washington, and we j ?ll know that they reoeived no specific inst ruc -ions. They had a right to believe they had j the confidence of the President, and they had j ano expression of his opinion of their powers under th*_ act, whioh was explicit-that ex-1 g prc88ion*wks the President's volo of the act [n that veto he declared that he could and I would not approve the act, because it placed absolute authority in the hands of thc military I j :ommandcrs ; because it destroyed all civil government in ten States, andbecanse it placed thc citizens thereof, under a more abject slave- L ry, than had ever existed over the former I t slaves of the Southern States. And this act, JO characterised by him, he sent these five gen? erals to execute, without instructions to limit their authority ; without a suggestion to guide j their discretion. At that time there can be 1 , DO doubt that the Congress who passed the I \ act, and tho President who vetoed it, agreed in its interpretation. Ia this sense these gen-1c erais executed it We have nothing now to do I with the wisdom of their acts ; we are looking 1 nerdy ut thc power under which they acted. L"bji[|H?ction for four months was opon, fla? irant, commented on ifhd discussed freely, sorlj^and South, and the way in which that luthority was acquiesced in at the South, was luoted every where at tho North, as tho test >f the progress of reconstruction. No man at he South to-day doubts that their action was approved by those who passed the act. Nor loes.any one suppose that Northern opinion viii allow all their acts to be reversed, the jower thus exercised to be revoked, and thc ?ivil government of the Southern States to be restored to their old authority. If not, what .hen ? and this brings us to our last point, that his action of the President will be serious to is, if the North believes that we desire or sup? port it. What we need is restoration to the Union, a return to that settled condition of things which will bring capital to the relief of the perishing industry of the State. Wo shall not argue this. Ihe condition of the State is before our eyes. The storm which, while we write, is howling through the deserted streets of this forlorn city, which is sweeping in destruction over the fields upon which the last j money and the last energy of our people have been ex? pended, is but & faint emblem of.the utter ruin which the storm of political passion, again roused,-will eau se in this unhappy qouniry. Why renew the useless and costly struggle ? What power has tho President to save us ? Though he is willing to sacrifice himself, he can only sacrifice himself with us, not for us ? The spirit in which wo received tho re? construction act, has done more for us than any resistance we could have made. Now the effect, already bertain, of the President's action has been to secure a session of Congress in July, which will, just as surely ns it meets, poss another reconstruction act which cannot be misunderstood, for oven so thoroughly con? servative, a paper as the Journal of Commerce says of Mr. STANBEKY'S opinion, "But that it interprets the Military Keoonst ruction Bill, in a manner, totally opposite to tho intent of Congress, no one con. doubt, who reads both, and who heard or read the discussions in Con? gress when the Bill was passed." Boes any one doubt that when Congress now meets it will see that its intent is carried out ? Wo will not speculate upon what that Congress will do. We hope it will be governed by the spirit which dictated the following paragraph in so Radical a paper as the Tribune : " We can never reconstruct America by tho gal? lows, and the Ueputy-Sheriff, and we trust that the spirit pf kindness will prevail-especially because this contest fe not made by ibo Southern people. They accepted tho Military Bill' manfully, 'and have endeavored to act nuder its provisions. In? stead of apathy, and wrath, ?rd .discontent, wo have found them eager and painstaking in their effort to reorganize their political system under the Military Bill. If the work is arrested, they are not to blame ; and we have no right to increase the conditions imposed last March. If anything, wo should recognize the temper of the South, by limiting them. The only issue is with the Presi? dent of tho United States." And we will add, in s spirit entirely devoid of offence to Mr. JOHNSON, or to any who differ from us, that we believe it to be the solemn duty of every representative of publio opinion in thii Southern land, to impress upon the country thai ?the only, issue is with the President of the United States." That he will have the wisdom and the oourage to abandon an issue so unfortunately made, is our sincere hope. To the Mercury we can only say " If | this be Radicalism, make the most of it."
