Brown low's Message. . s recent message oi Gov.' Browulow to the Ten--;-e Legislature is a long and rich document. We the following specimen extracts : .WHO SHALL VOTE. Who shall vote in Teuneseee in fntnre elections ? ill you authorise emancipated slaves to vote ? Will Jluve8t them wiih all the rights of citizenship? ve you power co ao it uoaer tne uonstitution of $ United States ? 1 These ,are weighty questions, deb will be broilght before the country for an swer ; and a content will shortly arise in Congress on the presentation of the credentials of two Sen- tt and eight Representatives from Tennessee who i asking admissionj to seatsjin Congress, while the "pie sendaig them have denied the emancipated fe the right ot sulVage. I am free to admit that, the present, ,we have done eaough for the negro, J, although negro votlcg cannot suit my natural Radices of caste, there. is afclasa of them I would willing to so vote lat once. A Iarse claBs.lsnorant. Me, easily led by! designing men, and not safely fcieo wim political power, X am not willing to see the ballot-fcox : but as even these have been faith- 1 among the faithless, if rebels are to be restored to v elective" franchise, I would say, let us no longer these political rights to the slaves. In my judg- VOL. VI. ment a loyal negro is more eminently entitled to suf frage thin a dil yi white man. TREATMENT OF TH08B WHO HAVE SEEN IN BEBELLI N. The closing of the war aud the disbanding of the rebel armies returns thousands of men to civil life, and distributes them among the various counties of the State. How are these men to be treated ? Are they to make g od citizens, or discontented subjects ? Are the woun Is ma le by the war to be healed ? These are weighty questions, taking the place of, those that engrossed our attention during the war. It is not our policy or interest to treat oppressively the th usands who fought bravely in a bad cause, provided thev actaa becomes their circumstances. As for the masses the y Ung and deluded masses who blindly followed the standard of revolt, let them hve a full and free pardon, if you will, on their sincere return to loyaltj ; but as many ot them are guilty rebels, they should cheerfully suhmit to five or ten years of disfranchisement, so as to give them time to wash the blood of loval men from their hands. As for the original cnnspir-Uors and leaders, who, through long years of spe iki g, writing, ai d agitating, got up this r-b Hi t ; who, wifiour provocation, or even the pretence of wr-m, to themselves, traitorously set the rebellion ii f t . bad men and men of tleRt, who pressi d ii f r vat I with all the malignity of fiends and cruelty t sivigs; "god S uthern men," who, thr-ugh rapine, ars m, perjury, and butchery, have fi I 'd the land with mourning ; thy are entitled to neither mercy nor forbearance. Lt us nogive a new growth and respectability to treason in the South, or in the border States, oy sending these unwhipped malefactors forth with new schemes for a second rebellion. True, the national honor has been vindicated. The insult offered to the country by rebellion has punished itself most bitterly in the ruin it has brought uoou rebel communities, and the sorrow and mourning it has carried to hearts that only advocated treason. The Government of the United fStates has demon strated the hopeless nature of all future attempts at destroying the Union. But no thanks to these origi nal conspirators for all this exhibition of strength on the part of the Government. No thanks to them, either, for their failure in their grand experiment at Insurrection. It is our daty to teach these leaders a lesson they will never forget, and one that will profit generations yet to come ; teach them that leniency, without a distinction between loyalty and treason, is more certain to subvert the Government than is rebel lion itself ; teach them that clemency, at the sacrifice of justice, is the criminal abandonment of government ; teach them that treason is a crime agaiBst law and liberty, and that they who are guilty of it have for feited all claims to protection aDd all rights of citizen ship. THE PRODIGAL SON. The opposers of the franchise act of this Gen eral Assembly are suddenly enamored of the vir tue of repentance ; and no parable ever writtej has such attractions for them as the parable of the Prodigal Son. They never weary of quoting this parable of unequalled beauty and pathos. It is inter esting to note the diffdrence between the Prodigal Son and these returning rebels First, thi Prodigal Son did not secede; he went with his father's consent, aud, the Scriptures indicate, with his blessing. Next, he went ; he did not stay and villify the old man in bis own house j he asked for something to start him in the world ; did not point a pistol and demand the old man's greenbacks; he received the portion his father gave him ; he rMd not steal it, and, receiving it, he started out to " sek his fortune." He did not go to the south side of the farm and pin a band of rob bers who were plundering the old man, but quietly took his j turney into a far country. Finally, be repented ot his folly, not because theold man whipped him iuto repentance, but because he "came to him self," and sa w that he had wasted his substance in ri tous living. He went back home, not with murder n his heart, threatening what he would do, but bowed down in honest contrition, and asking all sorts of pardon. He did not go back saying, " I have fought you four years, and until I was overpowered," hut ne went back crying, " Father, I have sinned against Heaven and oefoie thee, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. He went back because, through all his riotous living his heart was there. He did not return demanding his " lost rights," but said : "Mak? me one of thy hired servants." He did not ask instant forgiveness, upon an path of amnesty, but proposed to demonstrate his repentance by his works. T.he story is one of sincere, deep, heartfelt, volun tary repentance. D rebels coming home, come re penting of their unparallelled crimes ? As long as rebellion promised success did they show any signs of repentance? Are they coming back because they love the Union or" their property? Are they not coming back because tney are whipped and " perish with hunger ?" AH who return peaceably to their homes, cultivating friendly relations, abstaining from hostile acts aad discountenancing every attempt at disorder, should be met in the same spirit aud treated with leniency. POLICY OF THE P BESIDE NT. I am unwilling to dose this message without call ing the attention of the Leg slature to the measures proposed by Presidentd Johuson, for the org m ization of the Srates recently in rebellion. The President stands up. nobly for the C nstitutioa and tha Union of these United States, uninfluenced by any geo griphical considerations of North, South, East, or Wst, and is, therefore, entitled to the sympathy and support of this General Assembly. So far as his pur poses have bee . developed, I understand him-to ad here to his principles and pledges male while Mili tary Governor, both in regard to treason and traitors. His position, from the begining, has been that loyal men must govern the revolted States . that conscious and intelligent traitors must bo punished, aad thus treason made odions. There is a moral sublimity in this poitio, and the loyal masses, North and South, will not fail to appreciate it, and will warmly and unswervingly sustain bim against the assaults of ex treme men. The hop9 of the country is suspended upon carrying out these measures of the President. His failure will involve horrors and evil conseqences whteri all true patriots win snudder to contemplate It is not to be denied, however, that many good and loyal men do not find themselves able to agree with the President in his policy, as indicated, towards the seceded States. Bat this difference may be wholly owing to a difference of information. The President stands at the focus of all political information dissem inated from the South ; and though there mav be many influences surrounding his position calculated to distract and bias a mind less Strang than his, yet, making all proper allowances, it still remains that his opportunities for forming a correct judgment up on the state of affairs in the South are vastly better than that of the great majority of men at the North wh6 are finding fault with and cdmplaining of his po sition. Great weight, therefore, should be given to his opinions, which, so far as they nave been express ed, are consolatory and refreshing to all loyal minds in the seceded States. RALEIGH, MONDAY, OCT. THE CITY. The Eclipse of the Sum. We mentioned Satur day that an eclipse of the sun would take place on Thursday next, and that it would be visible in sev eral of the States. We may say this morning that at the tima of the obscuration the sun will be very near, while the moon will be at the greatest dis tance from, the earth, and hence the apparent diam eter of the moon will be much less than that of the sun, ana the width of thf ring uau sually. great. The path of the central eclipse over the United States will be well represented by nearly a straight line drawn on the map from a point about ten miles N. N E of Olympia to Jefferson, Mo., and thence about 8 miles N. E. of Nashville and Charleston to the Atlantic; and two other lines drawn parallel thereto, toward the N. E and S. W. and distant therefrom about eighty five geographical or one hundred English miles, will include all that p rtion of country in whici the eclipse will be annular, or the whole of the moon will be seen on the sun, but under the central line only will the ring bauf uni form width throughout. It will be found that a very large part of Nebras ka, Missouri and Tennessee, or all but the northeast and southwest portions, is included within those lines, also tho northeast part of Kansas and Ala bama, the southwestern half of Kentucky, and the northeastern of Georgia, the southwestern part of Iowa, Illinois and of North Carolina, and nearly the whole of South Carolina. The eclipse will begin here about 9 o'clock a. m. and end at noon or a few minutes after. As men tioned previously, the total duration of the eclipse will be three hours and a quarter, and the greatest obscuration at 10:45 a. ra. A Brutal Outrage. We h ear of another and perhaps the most brutal outrage which has been perpetrated in this vicinity since the close of the war. It is related to us that a party of negroes, on Saturday night, went to the house of Mr. Harry Parker, about four miles from this city, on the Fay etteville road, and beat him in a terrible manner. Indeed, his injuries are said to be of such charac ter as to create doubt of his recovery. This brutal feat accomplished, the scoundrels are reported as next proceeding to strip Mrs. Parker of every vestige of clothing, and were probably ac tuated only be her extreme age in aveiding the cul mination or height of human crime Next it is said they attacked and broke to fragments the fur niture in the house. This accomplished, they re tired with manifestations of delight over their foul deed. It is believed that two of the guilty party can be identified, and if this be true, we may cherish hope that all will be brought to trial and receive such punishment as the facts will justify. We trust, however, that the statement made to us may prove to bo exaggerated. We realize fully the disposition which exists to overstate the of fences of freedraen. Many of them we know to be quiet, industrious and law-abiding ; but the history of this affair reaches us in such form as to warrant the publicity we give it. We hope, ii true, that no effort will be spared to reach the guilty ones and punish thenr.with death the more summary the method the better for society, and the future inter ests of law and order. . the latest. A party of citizens, numbering about 60, sum-. moned by the sheriff of the county, Col. Russ, and Capt. Purinton, the provost marshal, with fourteen or fi teen soldiers, returned late last night from the search for the criminals. We understand they suc ceeded in arresting and bringing to the city a negro who is certainly implicated in the affair, if he is not the ringleader. He was lodged in jail. The statements above are more than confirmed. We now know that the desperadets not only as saulted Mr P., but stripped and whipped Mrs. P. in a most brutal manner. Besides the general de struction stated above, the perpetrators of the out rage possessed themselves of some four or five hun dred dollars in greenbacks, scattering confederate issues far and near. Col. Russ, Capt. Purinton , citizens and soldiers, deserve much praise for their promptness anden- rrr . 1 . 1 fS 1 4 f -11 U ergy. w e ao not aouot me nnai arrest ui an guilty. The indignation of the troops in our midst is not less than that of the citizens. Baptist State Convention. The next session of the Baptist State Convention will be held with the church at Forestville, seventeen miles north ot our citv. on the line of the Raleigh and Gaston railroad, and will commence on Wednesday, 1st of Novem ber. Rev. Mr. McDowell, of Murfreesboro, will preach the opening sermon ; Rev. Mr Wilson, of Chapel Hill, the missionary sermon, ine custom ary courtesy return tickets free of charge will be extended to th e delegates by the officers of the railroads of the State. Serenade. The Dudley Troupe have our best thanks for the serenade with which they favored us last Friday night. Instrumen tally and vocally the music was charming indeed, we have rarely Wrd voices suDerior in point of compass and bar- mony. Wo are not surprised at their popularity with concert-goers. . - Brutal Murder. We have tidings of the brutal murder of the Rev. Mr Oastlemant an Episcopal minister, on Wednesday night, near Gaston. We have no time to-night for particulars, but shall give them to-morrow. 16, 1865 NO. 285 A Nice Place. We visited the store of Mr. E. A.
