simply call attention t-> the fact, that there has
not been n single trial foi treason growing out
of the late Civil war. There have been innu- '
inernble trials nnd convictions before milita- '
ry courts and Rcminissiou?, 1ml not onejbefore a i
judicial tribunal, where the whole duc*r;ne of !
Sprite .rights and treason !o the United Jitnti?, '
could be thoroughly examined and ventilated. 1
This is a incnt striking n:i(i significant fact.
It is very easy to denonnce a whole people

an easy mnlt ?-r to prove t!:e:u reikis according
to law. If the President ij ever tried, wo ;

"Notions are lost when they follow the

echoes from nature. The biavo can only lie

llo.v. Ji. I*'. Pkbiiy.?The Hon 1!. F. Terry

that the South will never submit, to general
impartial stiflVago for black many white, and
that it will not nrcept ft qualified suffrage
whit-li would disfranchise ftlid of the present

in the conduct of tome of the northern hHato?,
which allow qualified lieu roes to vote, but lie
considers that genernl sutrrage, white and

the South as the adoption.of the constitutional
