COLUMBIA. Sunday Morning, December 2, 1866. A New Proposition. At a meeting of the Pennsylvania branch of tho "Freedmen's Union Commission," Chief Justice Chase, ou the 22d ultimo, delivered a speech and defined his position. HP ex? pressed Iiis conviction that the con? stitutional amendments now before the country constitute tho most mag? nanimous offer ever made to a people so recently engaged iu "rebellion." He did not say, however, that if they ?were not accepted by the Southern people, we might expect still better terms. He made the remark, in the course of his speech, that if we of the South think there is a better mode of recon? struction-a more generous mode, better calculated, to secure the peace and harmony of this great land-let tliem come forward aud propose it, and the people will listen and judge. He further said: . "I know what a nation of passion and prejudice is it is violent and unreasonable; but it is transient-it speedily passes away. " The point we deem most important in the speech is this, that instead of wilfully and -wantonly forcing upon the people of this section what they consider oppressive und unjust mea? sures, he-and Ave presume there are others in the Republican party who think with him-is willing that they should have a voice in Adjusting the terms of settlement. He has not told us bow that voice is to bo heard, or through what agencies the South is to make known her views; but still this declaration of a leading Republi? can, and from one who expects to get the nomination'iof his party for President, is something tangible, and would have been more so bad ho in? timated how the South was to come forward aud propose. A contemporary-the Nashville Union and American-in view of theso utterances by Chief Justice Chase, suggests that the several States of the South, through their Legislatures or otherwise, appoint delegates to a conference or convention, to be held in Washington, at an early day after the meeting of Congress, to make thc proposition alluded to. It says: 'The delegates should be represen? tative men of prudence, wisdom and discretion-whose voice would carry with it the weight and opinion oi the Southern people. Let the Le? gislature now in session move iu the matter, and in other States there may be such au expression from the press as to warrant the Governors in making the proposed appointments. This is, in our estimation, the short? est mode of expressing ourselves, and the most authoritative, outside of ii direct Congressional representation.' "We copy?this suggestion, and give it for what it is worth. It is unques? tionably tho duty of 1be Southern people, to accept any proposition, not dishonorable, that promises a resto? ration of peace and harmony, betweer the two sections of our country. They have, in many ways, since thc close of the war, manifested theil desire for a permanent peace, anc will at any time accept au honorabh proposition for such a consummation The submission of amendments to thc Constitution, coupled with degrading terms, is but mockery ; for well the; know who propose them, that tin people of tho South, humbled, down trodden and impoverished as the; miybe, could never voluntarily en slave themselves to a faction, whicl seeks to overthrow the eonstitutioi and destroy the liberties of the coun try. f _ The Springfield (Mass.) Republican speaking of the movement by certai politicians in favor of impeaching th President, relates the following: "T an influential Republican in Esse County, who remonstrated with Bul 1er against making an attempt t impeach the President, the Genere replied, "You don't suppose me sue a fool as to knock my head against stone wall in that way, I hope." A bill has passed a first reading i the Tennessee House of Represent! tives, providing hereafter an oath- c allegiance to the State nnd Geuer? Government will be sufficient proof c loyalty, and entitle those subscribin to it the privilege of voting. RELIEF FOR THE SOUTH.-It lu been determined by some of tl Episcopal churches in New York, i devote their Thanksgiving coDti butions to the relief of sufTerii parishes in the South. John D, Defrees, late public prie er, is : uggested in several Indiai journals as a candidate for Unit? States Senator from that State, vi Gen. Henry S. Lane, who declin a re-election. ?tcconulrtirtioii. Wo have seen, a letter, said to be written by a United States General, in which he s?3's lie does not know, however true their fidelity and peace? ful disposition, what the people of the South may be worried into doing, by thc radicals. In connection with this idea, we wert1 struck with an article in the Richmond Times, sonic da;,s ago, which conclusively argued, that had the right of self-government been conceded to the Southern States and they had been permitted to go in peace, Congress would not have found recoustructiou as difficult as it ap? pears to bc. With no oppressive party at the North, with no bloody gulf separating us from that section and its people, what would have been more natural than that public .sentiment in the South would have soou reversed the decree of separation? Even had we triumphed, we doubt not but that chivalric and impulsive spirit which characterizes our people, would in all probability have offered to the North that Union to which we were more attached than her people, until they made it unendurable by the uso and abuse of power. These views ought to be pouder*ed upon by the Northern people. As to the radical faction offering argument or persuasion to its members, would be casting pearls before swine.
