Our telegram, on yesterday, f(nr.e a copy
ol the bill passed by both Houses ol Con
gress, nunplemeutal to ami expository ul
till! Itecoustruction ActK. It will lie. found
to correspond wilii the" opiuiitiiM of I hi
Di.trict Commanders aa lin y undeiHluod its
intent and meaning, ami diacarda altogether
the construction of tlie Attorney flenerul,
and ruts off any future interpretations ex
cept aucb M may be given to it ly tlie Coin,
uianders themselves and by (inn. (Irani.
The President la entirely iguureil by the
last bill, and it guards effectually against
hi future action in the premise.
There aeeru to be three really uew feature
added in the matter of reconstruction, ou
what the Congress originally intended. It wan
evidently the intention of Congress that the
President should have nothing to do with
the matterxcept in the simple appointment
of the District Commanders, and tin' review
f the decision of military Courta in rases
nf life and death. We prraumr the new I. ill
doe not interfere with the exercise of tlie
power of the President in thin latter i
The three new feature are: First, confer
ring upon Gen. tirant, instead of the I'n -i
dent, the power of removal and future np
piintmeat, In addition to the exercise ol
the same powers by the District Command
eni; secondly, the right of the Registers to
challenge person applying for registration,
allowing them to go behind the oath to le
administered to them ; and, thirdly. re(wr
ing all persons, who may hereafter be elect
ad under the Provisional Htate or Munici
pal authorities, or who may be appointed
to office or detailed for any civil office, to
take the "iron-clad" oath, which in require.!
of all officers of the I'nited Stair
Id considering with more care this last
feature, since our article on yesterday,
which was written before wrsaw the bill, it
Is proper that we shonld say that, il we un
derstand it, we do not know that the a.ldi
tion so seriously prejudices the bill, as we
thought it did at tint ; unless it should
afterwards sppear, tint Congress designs to
designate members of the State Convention
and ot the first Legislature elected under it,
as tfflnrr; who con Id not take their sests
u a less they could take the "iron-clad"
oath. It bas long been conceded in this
Atete, and we believe i so understood in
tbe country genersl I), that a mniil.tr ot a
8tst Convention or Slate Legislature is in it
an tfflrrr within the meaning of the (onsti
tution. If to, the simple meaning ol the
tit section is, that, in the selection of State
or Municipal officer during the Provisional
'ttbU geveniiBCnts, under -military ml. . ll
election or appointment f rn to till
civil municipal ofl'mn, shall u. oul v I
Irom among such ierwms as can tnke tin ,
test oath. This as effectually cuts oil ni I
called Southern Loyalists who cannot Uke
that oath, as it doe other persons i
Sovthkhx 8tatic Uovkrnurnts .- A
large delegation nf white and black Union
1st have arrived here from North Carolina
and Alabama, for the purpose of urging
upon Congress th necessity of entirely al.ol
isuing tbs pfesei State governments in the
Huutu. their petitions eetfcirth the Tart
that tbe Union men ot the South will hate
a better opportunity of controlling the reg
tstration of voters, &; irtbe present onrau
iistioa are utterly abolished. Tbe North
Carolina delegation is headed by an iutelli
gent colored mau named Harris. who is
' President of ths Equal Rights League nt
that Htate, and ia behalf of tbat organiza
tloa ha will present to Congress a petition
tor tbe relief of ax -Governor llolden from
the political disabilities imposed upon him
by bia active participation in the war. -Watk.Cor.N.
Y. Tim,.
It will be observed, from the foregoing,
tbat these "toul birds," black and white, do
ot complain that, under "the present
State. Governments," they will not have a
fair and equal chance at registration with
all other classes allowed to register. This
is not what tbsy desire. They do not want
Justice and fairness. 1 hey want "to tmtrU
the registration of voters," juat ss Hrown
low controls it in Tennessee, rejecting all,
however wall-qualified, who will not vote
to perpetuate their infamous rule.
ja thU shameless effort thej have tailed,
as they bav haretotbra dona when they bass
approached Congress with their boring and
impertinent appeal. Tbey will fail equal
ly aa aignally in their eflorta to have tbe ilia
abilities) removed from the "chief sinners."
Whatever may be said of the ninth section
of the Supplemental Act, that hasjust passed
both House of Congress, there is this crumb
of comfort in it : It covers thsm with the
same blanket that it spreads over nearly all
the natlvewblt citizens of the Stste. Thty
cannot All tbe office for which their greedy
nuU axe hankering. Thrj are left a effectu
ally out in the cold as any one named man
in tbe Bute, whom they bespatter with
their filth M "traitor.'
. rCoiilL'ITIoM. Mr. Tbaddeu Hteveuain
timatsa that hie- party has become greatly
demoralized, and is liable to become tffttt
end to go under, from ltswruin. If the
tales that are told about Mr. Steven be true,
- bow can it be otherwise with a party con
trolled by suck leaders I Kottenness iu par
lies always begins with Its leaders first ; then
the gangrene works downward among tlie
rank and file. Perhaps the whole country
her suffered so much from demoralisation
Md corruption as at the present time, and

i use before us, iin!e.-s the liileet ul the par
lies in thrir r.niiriii'l was to aid the Rebel
lion, the I. i.i iliui it did il, (if it did,) by
giving I'liirrnci to the notes, docs lint viti
ate it.
It is not pietiuded that I he Confederate
Trca-uu ii. .ii - were ol c'e. It is con
cedeif II.:. I ll.. y were ol value, and tliST, at 1
the linn ol ihi -de in 1SIW, less than two
lobars ol the ii. .Its would buy one dollar ol
gold. Hut it is contilel that elthongh of I
value they were illicit. In what sinae were
tbey so ; lu no case can the thing used as
a cousitleration, ol ilselt anil independent ol
(he intention" ot the parties, invalidate the
contrail il the thing I of value; unless,
perhaps, ley expiesa Statute. There is noth
ing which may not be, turued to mischief
in its use, as poisons, deadly weaHiua and
the like; but still they arc sufficient cousi
dviations to support contracla, unless it be
the iultiil ol the sale to do mischief. The
case el Uiiiuliin ra. 7W'y, 11 Howard U.S.
KeMrt 4.13, ia very strong in point. In
that case Africans had been imported and
sold as slaves, which is forbidden by law.
The vendor brought suit for tho price of
one which lie lind sold; and the defense was
that the consideration was illegal. The
court says : "The plea that the notes were
given tor African negroes imported into
Texas alter l&tii is unavailable. Un the ar
gument here, it was endeavored to lie sup
ported on the ground that the notes wero
void, lucause the introduction of African
negroes into Texas was contrary to lsw.
It these notes had been given on a con
tract to to a -thing forbidden by law, un
doubtedly they would be void. Neither Jf
the parties had anything to do with the ori
ginul contract, nor was their contract made
in deliaucc of law. The crime committed
by those who introduced the negroes into
the country, does not attach to those who
may afterwards putchase them. Aa re
spects the defendant, therefore, he has recei
ved the full consideration of his notes."
And then follows thia strong language by
the court : "If the defendant should be sued
for his tailor" bill, and come into court
with the elntttes made for lilm o his bsek,
and plead that he wa not bound to pay for
them because thu importer had smuggled
the cloth, lie would present a case ol equal
merit and parallrlr with the present; lut
he would not be likely to have the verdict
of tlie jury or the judgment of the Court."
So. in the case belnre us, it is conceded
that it was illegal to isrniu the Treasury
notes, just as it- was illegal to import the
negroes; but tlie illegality is in the usuiug
in the one case, and in the importing in the
other, and does not attach to those who
alterwurds use the thing issued or import
ed. It was insisted, ill the argument be
fore n. that Hie value of tlie Treasury uoUis

quoted, the value of the importation of
negroes depended upon their sale, and the
transaction lietween'tlui partie aided their
sale, and, in that way, ehcouratfed importa
tion. The fact wa uuitoyoteaiy irue,yei n
.tim reiwter tfi coniract void. -The, ills-
Sslity corrsisted in their impoteaUonandnot
i their use after importation ; so tbe illegal
ity consisted in the issuing of the Treasury
notes, and not in their use alter they wtre
issued. If balls, w hich lind bci il shot in
battle, had been found ajul sold, il might a
well be said that the eoii-i.lt i.tl ion was il
legal, because- they hud lu-cn made for, ami
used in, the rebellion. wCimHilije . ;',
supra, the ease was that in the war of s j,
a citizen of tlie l ulled Stab - bought goo.!
of the enemy contrar,4o law, und brought
them to the L'nitcd States and sold t In in.
r and, when hu sued the purchaser lor the
jince, lie set up the drlinse lli.il il was un
lawful for the plaiutill to h ue bou.'ht the
goods, ajid, thai, lliercliire, the i ..n-i.h r.i
tion of the contract was illegal ; but the
Court held the contrary. It i-nl.-in.l to
supwise that the goods in that ra-r. or the
Treasury notes in thi-, were illegal. Were
not the giMids precisely the same as if tin y
had liceu bought of a tiirndli power; Ct r

Mr. SellvyeteCj a prominent ctli.i n ot
TeuncwM'e, has written a letter to the New
Yolk M'tfrW, asking the sympathy ol all just
and right minded people il the North with
thi wrongs if liui CtiiHt r-vUvu wiliji4Us ui
thai Slate. Among the niitnerous instances
of Hrownlow's tyranny, which lie cites, we
find the flillowiiig :
"On the first day of the present month
two desperate characters -in the County ol
Cheatham, near Nashville, encouraged by
executive connivance at crimp, murdered in
cold Mood an estimable and iinofft-uding
young man, who was jieaceably standing on
the public square in the county town.
The miscreants approached this young man
with each a double barrelled shot gnu, and
discharged four loads ot buckshot into his
body. One of these niurderera wa a noto
rious desperado, who had previously killed
at least one man in cold blood an old man
passing quietly upon the highway, llrown
low has made, this mnn his coinniissiont-r of
registration tor thu county ol Cheatham, an
officer who holds the elective franchise of
the people, under the franchise act, ubso
lutely in his baud. He can refuse a certili
cate, without w hich the citizen cannot vote,
to any jicrson, loyal or disloyal, nnd there
is practically no remedy ; or he can admit
to registration any one, loyal or disloyal.
and then he is entitled to vote. Such a
man is entrusted and such men arc pre
ferred by this tyrant for a position of
soch trust iie hart attempted during Ihe
day, by threats, and by the displny of him
self in his shirt-sleeves, at a p-iblic meeting,
heavily armed, to silence a Conservative
speaker. Failing in this, he wound up the
day's proceedings with this deed of blood.
His associate claims, as it is understood, to
hold a commission in Iirownlow's'militia.
Kxpecting, as well these outlaws might, to
find protection at the State Capital, they
tied to Nashville and there remained till the
officers of tjie law- entered the capitol build
ing itsell, and dragged them forth. Itul to
what putpoae-tuay these men be eninicted
of their crime? L'niler another act ol
Urownlow's Legislature these men may ex
clude from the jury which shall try tiiem
any citizen who is not a qualified voter.
The jury must be selected, if they demand
it, from those whom this commission has
enfranchised ; and yet, if convicted by such
jury, they have every reason to cxect u
pardon from the Governor w ho has pub
licly instigated the act.'-'
