But uncii humen nasun shall cease to be what God bas made it, honor ablo men, to gave thomselves, to save oven their lives, would not incur the guilt of such umnaturel treachery by voting for auch a provision, When it pending befure the Senate, June 3, 1566, I urged an implored senators to allow the soveral provisions of that amendmont to be soparately submitted and vored upon, aod I waraod the friends of the mea: that this provision would inevitably defeat its adoption by overy Southern State, ir, the majority were deaf to all appeals. . The caucus had resolved; the deed was to be dono; and 1% was dona, On account, mainly, of thas provision, tas amondmont was rejected almost mously by every Southern State, Again, when ied more ctosely wo find that provision required them to vote (0 disfranchise thousands who had recoived pardon and amnesty, and & restoration to all their rights as cilizens under the proclamations of President Livcola and President Johnson, by virtue of jaw of Congress, which tyou yourselves on- acted, which expressly authorized them to grant euch pardon and amoesty upon just such terms as they thougut proper, An amendment offered by me in t Seaaie the Sst of May, 1866, to except those meu wi had ‘uly received pardon and amnesty under tho con- tion aad laws," was voted down by an unyiolding Tecan never view this provision in any vib light than a most palpable violatron of the plight (aith of Chis government given to those persons in the moat soloma ‘orm. L the Emperor of Russia, by proc- Jamation, were to grant full pardon to sucb Poles as would take am oath of allegiance to his crowa, aad if he auould afterwards doliderately break his word, what denunciations would be and ought to be hea upon hig head by the civile ized world? ‘The periidy of such an action would only be equalled by its folly a%a measure of pacifica- tion to Poland, Congress authorized the President to give pardon and amnosty to thousands whom Congres. now calla upon the people of tho South to vote to dis franchise, Again, sir, there is another feature of that provision which no sentiment of justice should tolerate ‘or excuse, Ip thet sweeping disfranchisement no dis Unction whatever is made betwoen those who volui tarily engaged and those who were compelled to enxa im the rebellion; no distinction whatever batwoen the innocent and tn ty. ‘Pho senate will remember that whon this amendment was pending I offured an amendment to restrict that disfrauchisoment to thoso who had voluntarily engaged im the rebellion; and it was voted down by the same unyielding ma- Jority. Partisum zeat and party nocessity may account for many things. But when tho history of these times shall be written it will seem incredible to our posterity that learned moa and able Senators could ever for one moment bring thomsetves to believe it poasibie that the ple of the South ahould vole for stich an amendment, it contains til another objectionable feature im viola~ tion of an important principle in every good govern- ment, confounding executive with logislati thore be any prerogative which more than another per- tains to the executive in all governmonts, ancient and modorn, that prorogative is the pow pardon. This amondment proposes to change the constitution so as to take that power away from the Executive and conter it upon the two houses Congress, It is revolutionary, and worse than that. It vetoes the power of clomency ia advance. It not only takes that power from the President, but takes it away from a majority of Congress, and requires two-thirds of voth houses inorder to exorciso the power of pardon, the same majority which ts necessary to pass a law over the Presidential veto, In what civilized governinent upon oarth was there over power of pardon? Ca Savago tribes? Sir, thi bie fora majority of the people of the United States, by the choice of a Prosident or by the ciection of the houses of Congress, to grant patdon and amnesty. | speak with all becoming respect for the opinious of otbers aud for the sincerity of their motives. I know it never could bave boon intendea; but judging this provision by its own words, standing in its own light, it seoms to be born of distrust in the intelligence and Taagnanimity of the pooplo; the offspring of cow. ardice and revenge, of unforgiving hate and lust for political power, And is it because the Logisia- tures of the South rejected such a proposition that Congress should now enforce this policy and establish « combined negro and military despotism in all the states of the South and undor ita irou trample in the dust our own race and kindred and people? Mr. President, Congress has proposed from timo to time many schemes, but they may all be resolved ito two distinct policies, radically opposed to each other; first, reconstruction. by the constitutional amendment on the white basis; sec-- ond, reconstruction by nogro suffrage and military force, ‘The firsv assumed that poace had come; that the States in the Union, with governments organised, with Legislatures having power to ratify or to reject eonstitu- tional amendments; and, furthermore, that those gove ernments were in ‘the ‘hands of white men, with and specious arguments about sustaining loyal | power, as in all tho other States, to admit or to exciude mon and ania febels, it is nothing more | porroca from suilrage, And, in case the amendment OF lone 8 {bib:—Shall’ the Gonoral of the | wers adopted by three-fourths of the States, the only army put t ro in power dver the white race im | effect of admitting or excluding negroes {rom the bailot, all che Stated of the South, and keep him there?

To those who have sufficient education to read the constitution of the United States and to subscribe shetr nates (0.an oath to suppore the same; or. 8. To those who have acquired and ‘hold real property to the vaiue of $260, But the question may be asked, why aot supply the game tests to the while men of the South? The answer is plain and twofold. First, by the constitutions aud laws of those States the right of suffrage is already secured to thom, and we have no rightful power to take itaway. Todo'so would trample under our foet one of the most sacred rights reserved to the States, [tis by extending suffrage to the negroes that Congress is over- turning the constitutions of thoso States. in my opinion this 13a usurpation, which its advocates justity upon the groaud of necessity alone. I neither admit the power nor the necessit i 0 reason, can be given, and no necessity bat that of party asc :nd- eoey can be urged for going further in this revolution- ary work than to admit to suffrage the classes of negroes named in thit dinent, The second answer is, that white na centuries mn accustomed Lo vote.
