COLUMBI;*. Sunday Morning, September 23,1886 Electioni-cring-Irish. Consistency. ' "Wo see it stated that a delegation of Irish citizens waited upon Presi? dent Johnson on Tuesday last, and stated their grievances and their wishes, saying that they had to choose between the radicals aud their life-long friends, the Democrats. They wished some change in the Cabinet, and denied that they had. ever committed treason against Eng? land. They asked for a new Minister to England, in placa of Mr. Adams, and suggested that the Alabama ?rlaims^be pressed-which, of course, would lie an admirable means of in? volving this country in a war with Groat Britain. They wound up by declaring that there were 750,000 Irish voters in this country, aud asked that this fact should be re? membered in parcelling out the offices in the gift of the Government. We think the Fenian Brotherhood has been most wofully misrepresented in such an application ns that nar? rated. We are glad to seo that tho President replied sensibly. He felt, ho said, the force of their sugges? tions, and avowed that he was strong? ly tinctured with sympathy for tho Irish, and would do all that could Le ?lone for them. And now for the consistency of all this. These Irishmen, with their 750,000 votes, aver that they had not committed treason against England. Did not many of them swear, and act upon the allegation, that the peo? ple of the Southern States commit? ted treason against the Government, because they took up arms in de? fence, as they supposed, of their constitutional rights. Their case is precisely parallel, and a little be? yond, on the part of the South, at this moment. Ireland is represented in the British Parliament-the South? ern States, paying their share of tho taxation, aro donied representation in the Parliament of this country the Congress. We wish all success to a people in their struggles for liberty-wo would bo glad to see Ireland free from the "British yoke," as Irishmen aro fain to call the union of their Country with England; but, at the same time, wo cannot avoid noting that some of the leading so-called Irish patriots Shields, Meagher, Corcoran and others-enlisted to put down a "re? bellion" of a people who desire to have a Government of their own framing. This is Irish consistency, with a vengeance. The President did not commit him? self in the above interview and we are glad he did not. He knows full well himself to day. os tho great pacificator arid restorer of the Union of these States, that the people of Irelaud, politically speaking, are a thousand times better off thau aro tho people of the oppressed and excluded States of the South. The evils of the former are for the most part sentimental and imaginary, while those of tho latter are positive and real. Consistency. The folleo, ing Act, passed on the 4th March, 1862, stands unrepeated: "CHAP. XXXVI.-- An Act Firing the Number of the House of Representa? tives, from and after the third of March., eighteen hundred and sixty three. "He it enacted bit the Semite and House of Representatives of the. United Slates of America, in Congress as? sembled, That from and after tho third day of March, eighteen hundred and sixty-three, thc number of mem? bers of the House cf Represrntutires of th? Congress of the United shall be ti co hundred and forty-one; and the eight additional members shall be assigned, ono each to Pennsylvania. Ohio. Kentucky, Illinois. Iowa, Minnesota, Vermont and Ithode Island. "APPKOVKO March i, 1862." And yet, Thad. Stevens and his confreres in the House, repudiate this Act, by sacing that tho Southern States are not entitled to their rights in that body, and deny admission to ?eventy representatives, in the tdeth of tho above enactment. A disloyal radical sheet in Indian? apolis, shortly before the arrival of President Johnson in that city, inti' mated that it would bear "with re? signation" any "dispensation of Providence" that would remove Pre? sident Johnson. These, says the Albany Argus, are tho men that howl about tho New Orleans riots. They shoot white men in ?. ?ld blood at Indianapolis, and invite the mur? derers to assassinate the President! Tin? New York DI?ss Meeting. The New York papers, of Tuesday, gi?? full particulars of tho immense mass meet? ing which was held ia Union Square, of that eily, on Monday evening. The florid nays that there never was a grander ga? thering in tho city. From the Worlds re? port, we extract the following: Union Square and the surrounding streets were crowded, last night, with a hundred thousand of the many true and loyal men of this metropolis who want the Union restored, and want it restored at once; who want self-government, by cou? sent through representation, to continue to prevail in these States, ami who do not propose to snbjoct their liberty to the risks involved in the establishment here of any , other sort of government whatever eil her a dictatorship or a despotism by rump Congresses. The surroundings and decorations of the nie. ting were quite unequalled as a specta? cle, and speakers of known repute address? ed the thronging thousands from various stands -our gallant standard-bearer, John T. Hoffman. Gen. Dix. Samuel J. Tilden and Judge Comstock, of Syracuse, among the number. The enthusiasm with which the former was greeted was tremendous. Bift better than the speakers, or tho bands, or the blazing lire-works, was the sight of thu thronging thousands who gathered under the statue of Washington, and pledged an invincible determination to put down, tinnily and fi irever, the last enemies of the Union which he and thc fathers (rained. New York cries aloud to all the nation. Fut down thu last enemies ol' the Union. Let the nation hear and heed. Gen, Dix, who had expected the nomina? tion which Mr. Hoffman received trout lite Stale Convention, was tlu? first speaker. Ile took stroug ground in favor of sup? porting the President, his policy, and his friends. The resolutions passed embraced the bil? lowing excellent ones: lie? deed. That we regard it as the great felicity and chief distinction of the Ameri? can peoplo that they arc governed by a written Constitution, which is theVupreme kw of thc laud, and that the co-ordinate branches of the Federal Government, the legislative, the executive and the judicial, have no powers except those derived from that instrument; while the declaration by the majority of the present Congress that the late civil war has invested them with the irresponsible powers of militarv con? querors, and that they recognize no rules except those by which the conquering sove? reigns of Europe have been accustomed to tyrannize over subjugated nations, is ab? horrent to every lover of i 'instit minna! Government, and it acquiesced in, will re? duce ?,(HK),(KX) of American citizens to tin condition of subjugated aliens, ami con? vert ten States into ten Polands, ten Hun garics ax ten Irelands. Jivs:>lcal. That Congress, by an Act de? fining treason and its penalties, expressly conferred upon tho President of the United States tho right to exempt from punish? ment, by proclamation of amnesty ami pardon, those who had committed acts ol treason or resisted the authority of tin. United States; that, in compliance with the authority so conferred, President John sou, at the end of the civil war, issued a proclamation of amnesty and pardon, which, under the laws of nations and the common law of the land, rv habilitated tin Southern people included in its provision; in all their rights; and that to disregard this solemn amnesty, which in all civilized nations would be deemed an '.oblivion ti all offences," to persisL in their disfran? chisement, taxation without representa tiou, threatened confiscation, and the im? position of every badge of servitude, is ai outrage on humanity and a violation of lin national honor. Resolved, That the precise and clearly defined issue now before the American peo pie is whether they will elect a Congresi that will respect thc imperative command: of the Constitution, as to Senators, Rcprc sentatives, and PrcsidYiitial en e tors, o whether they will continue a congressioua majority in power which gives no guaran tee that it will not by conditions pr. ceden that multiply with thc exigencies of party not only indefinitely exclude States fron the Union, but overthrow our form of go vermuent itself. Resolved, That we arc profoundly grate ful that Andrew Johnson, m his high office uutemptcd by the proffer from Congress o almost despotic power, has maintain-? that love for the Constitution of oar father which characterizes thc true American cit i zen; and that in his masterly State paper and familiar conversations with thc pcoph ho has demonstrated that he not only com prehends the Constitution, but that, titi to his oath of office, he will preserve, prc ted, and defend it. Mayor Hoffman then caine forward The whole assemblage burst into thc mos tremendous cheering, accompanied b waving of hats and caps, and with ever demonstration of uurestraitiablo enthusi asm; cheer upon cheer rose for several mi nutcs. tho cannon opportunely roared on in unison, and the band added its accord ant notes to tjie triumphant shout. Froi this side and that there came cries i "Three cheers for Hoffman," which wer always resiionded to until the desire t hear the voice of the next Governor ow < came tho enthusiasm at his presence. Mi Hoffman spoke as follows: My fellow-citizens-["Three cheers h the Governor of New York." A groa shout.] 1 fed that I am at home, and sin rounded by tens of thousands of my friend: [Tremendous cheering, "'That's so; that SO."] 1 rejoice at this vas! assemblage < tho American people, gathered togetln on this anniversary of the adoption of tl American Constitution, to ratify ami m dorso the policy founded upon that Cm stitutiou, ami to denounce a policy at wa with it, and with thc best interest* of m common country.

Why, my fellow-citizens, what do the Co gross assumer1 The power to keep Stat out of Congress. If they have the po er to keep States out of the Union, to kei them out of Congress, they have the pow to put them out of the Union, and to p them out of '"(ingress. [Cheers, "Thal so."] That, fellow-citizens, is a pla statement of tho principles. If a politic majo. ,y in Congress can deny to one Sta representation in Congress, it eau exclu another whenever its representation is n in harmony within its own views; and te; ing the Congress by this principle, if th now say and declaro that the people of tl Southern State?, when submissive to tlio Constitution, aro not loyal, I Ak them to let them-in, aud ir they turn out not to be so, then turn them out.

Tb.? Herald to thc- President. The New York Humid, of Wednes? day, in a leading editorial, gives the following advice to the President : Since the appalling tragedy where? by Andrew Johnson became Pre? sident of the United States, we have cordially supported him and his Southern policy against the extreme reconstruction programme ?if the Northern radicals. From recent events, however, South und North, including tho Now Orleans massacre, thc Maine election and the President's Western excursion, and from all the passing indications of Northern pub? lic opinion, wo are satisfied that, in opposing tho constitutional amend? ment adopted by Congress, Mr. John? son, in tho approaching Northern elections, will bo defeated. In tin widening of his conflict with tin radicals to a conflict with Congress, ho has evidently boen very unfortu? nate, and, in the further prosecution of this contest, there is but ?gloomy prospect of his ultimate sueeess. As a man of tho people, therefore, : as a believer in tho doctrine ol' i cheerful submission to tho will ol' tin j people, and, as a sworn defender o th" Federal Constitution, Presiden I Johnson, in our view of the presen' j crisis, has but one course to pursue It is to take up the constitutions j amendment, now before the peoph of the North,- and push it througl all the still excluded Southern State: as rapidly as possible, so that, durinf. tho Approaching Just session of tin present Congress, 1 luise States maj be reinstated in Itothhouses. En lld way, the Northern radicals and South ern radicals may be speedily silence* and put down, with the practical rc storation of thu Union on a solid am satisfactory constitutional foundation A little pressure upon the Governor of the Southern Stales concerned like that which w?is applied in Ind tal ! of t!io constitutional atnendmen ! abolishing slavery, will do the wor ; in regard to this new amendment, an' when done by Virginia, South Cort i lina, or Texas, these States will snrel I meet with the recognition und r< admission into Congress accorded 1 j Tennessee.
