One thing is certain, no rebellions State can hope, to resume its relation's to the federal Union without .first ridding ftself of slavery. Gradual emancipa-. tion even will be an insuperable Jjarrler to aujchf re sumption. We state whatwe are "certain is so. To attempt therefore, .to hold on to slavery for any length of time is to retuso ' to resume connection with the federal Government ; and ho true or loyal man can hesitate in'his choice between slarery and the Union. . 4 V - " : j--... ; -: - - President -Johnson" and his PolicyThe Do- . maads of a Great i evolution. In the speeches which have been delivered "by President Johnson to various .visiting, committees he has, with an emphasis which- cannot be mis taken, defined his position in reference to treason and traitore; 'Treason,', he says, .Vis the, highest of all crimes, and: traitors must be punished. To the masses of the South involved in theebellion he will be lenient; but to their traitorous leaders V he will admtoister jqstice. , Loyal men, if number- Ing. only nve tnousana in a cxae, wiii, no i naa broadly intimated, be charged .with, fhe budineus of reconstruction, to the exclusion of traitors, and up on the fundamental idea that the slaveholding aris-" toe racy have destroyed themselves with their insti tution of slavery. The work of reconstrocuon is thus to rest upon the basis of tne abolition of sla very as a fact accomplished. No man, for instance. will hereafter be tolerated as a slaveholder m aootn Carolina, and no man will therein be recognized as a slave. 4i . 4i if- ':" Here we have the initial landmarks of a bold, de cisive policy, recognizing the demands of a great revolution.- .This is good; for this tremendous war has wrought in . four years . the revolutionary changes ' which, would- probably have required a hundred years of peace and Fresylential compro mises. The Southern institution of slavery is pros t rated yond royry 1 and with it the domineer ing slaveholding aristocracy of the Southern States and their political, power as tne ebampions of sis- very are gone lorever gone, rresiaent jonnson thus regards the political situation ot tne south, and, his .views have given universal satisfaction throughout the loyal States.. . Of - hia policy, anus broadly foreshadowed, we shall soon know something more in the develop ment of. its practical details. We presume that President Johnson i has no desire for any: very - ex tensive hanging of! leading traitors; out; that he will-be satished.witn tne-vindication of the majesty of the law and the ends of justice in a lew exempla ry cases o& the halter.. We cannot doubt, however, that he expects, from a few wholesome examples,- a general clearing out of dyed-in-the-wool rebels, and that those who have merely been dipped in the dye pot of secession shall have a good scouring of loyal sand and soap, to.rub tne rebel butternut color out of thenr, though "it may take the hide off If we are to consider the people of the south as a conquered foreign people, we may pot them through a regular apprenticeship; but if we are to accept them as a portion, of our own people, relieved of a savage, usurping despotism, and returned." to their" rightful allegiance, then we should pursue a' different course of treatments , 4 : . - :: ,t We beliej that the simplest means that can be adopted f in ithe reorganization of the rebellious States will he the best. .' A military governor in ev ery State where necessary, with an armed force at bis. command, sufficient to," piit down guerillas and bushwhackers, and tQ-maintain; order,' will do for a beginning. He may make the arrangements and appoint the time for the election of a convention to form a new state constitution, and to provide for the election -pfi a civil governor, State legislature,' members of tTongress Ac without any'furtner con dition precedtht than this : that the candidates for the convention shall be genuine loyal men. i If the masses of thef people concerned choose to support U such men, their votes will' be equal to an oath of loyalty ; and if they refuse to support 6uch men let them remain out in the coid till they get sufficient ly chilled and hungry to come into Uie house and to the family table. " Let them take their own time in oroing- to supper. .We pan stand it as long as they can ; And besides, we can rely upon the repen tance of men who have been cured of-tbeir folly up on empty stouiachs.and cool reflection.

But our course has been retrogressive, in the face of magnrfident d vantages, while States with responsible industry have made onward and forward marches in the state of oeing. . " ' , -K North Carolina and Virginia are evidences of the emasculating influence of slavery. The Old Domin ion, as long ago1 88,1830, in recognition of1 ear as sertion, was on the eve of emancipation ; but honest predilections, for a venerable barbarism, seconded by false pride and the fop zealous efforts of North ern fanaticism, defeated the . grand enterprise. , It is true the scheme for her -deliverance was checked by a bare majority in her constitutional convention, but it was enough, and ever since that common wealth has been shorn veven of its once existing strength in the electoral college, in foreign trade, and in domestic affluence. Instead of an empire in power, Virginia has become trojy Lilliputian. The history of our neighbor is typical of the en- c-.-n. ) .1 i : - 1 r I ber failure, and the success of the North, is con : tained in the words slavery and freedan. ; The PREPONDERANCE HAS BEEN - ATTAINED CNDKR LAWS DirrERlNOv PROM THOSE OP TBS SOUTH ONLY IN TOE KIND OP LABOR EMPLOYED, j If temporary disorganization of Htbor injuriously affects important interests of public or private mo ment, we must console ourselves with reflecting that it is incidental to all extended reformations. The derangement, however, will correct itself. Indus trial competition must spring into existence at once ; labor will.be abundant, if. not in excess of the de mand, while it is equwalently, sure that, if not cheapened, the remuneration demanded cannot ex- : ceed equitable standards. : Besides, as the incentives ' to : real work enlarge, the proprietor's interest can not fail of recognizing improvement in the quality, character and profits of every species of compen sated , performances." Withthis, the removal of heavy responsibility and release from exhausting -vexations, We ought to be content. 1 , ! 0 May 9, 1865. "I 4 : - : For. the Standard. . Union Meeting in ILeuoir. : .
