We cannot too earnestly impress upon our readers of all parties the importance of this new urticle of the constitution, now fact accomplished in due form. It tablishes the equal civil rights in all the States and Territories of citizens of all races and colors, and proclaims all persons born or naturalized in the United States citizens thereof; it establishes a new system of repre- sentation in Congress oa the basis of suffrage, leaving every State free to adopt a universal or qualified suffrage limited to males above the age of twenty-one years, thus excluding the women under the supreme law. This, for the present, settles the woman suftrage question, and wowen hencetorth will be excluded from the ballot box until they and their friends among the men shall have secured another amendment of the federal constitution. This fourteenth article further provides that certain rebels shall be disfranchised and disqualified for office until relieved by a two-thirds vote of each House of Congress; that the national of debt shall not be questioned, and that all rebel debts and claims for slaves are null and void. ‘These securities for the fainre will render the minds of many doubting Thomases easy in regard to the inction of slavery, rebel debts and clans 4.

The message is brief, but | have not seen the country can but imperfectly forcibly written. Mr. Johnaon holds thai the | understand; for it is almost the only redeem- Southern States never having been out of the | Union, Congress has no power to exclude their votes from the Electoral College, and that if the ordinances of secession did forfeit all their rights and sever their connection with the other States, then “‘the war waged upon them was illegal and unconstitutional” and ‘‘was waged for the conquest of Territories assumed to be outside of the constitutional Union.” The duty of Congress is to count the electoral votes, and not to receive or reject them. Mr. Johnson insists that the State governments or- ganized in 1865 were legal and constitutional, and gives it as his opinion that ‘‘all the State governments organized in those States under the acts of Congress for that purpose and under military control are illegitimate and of | into exile. no validity whatever,” and accordingly ‘‘the votes cast in those States for President and Vice President, in pursuance of the acts passed since the 4th of March, 1867, and in obedience to the so-called Reconstruction acts of Congress cannot be legally received } and counted.” The position here assumed is liable to lead to considerable agitation of the question, particularly if it should happen that the votes of the Southern States are necessary to decide the election of the Presidential can- didates. The concluding argument of the message is quite logical in its deductions. If Congress cun refuse to receive the electoral vote of Virginia because a portion of her in- habitants were engaged in rebellion “it can exercise the same authority with respect to New York or any other of the States,” the President assuming that in all of the Northern States there are persons who participated in the rebellion. He argues that if the bill be a legal one then the ‘Presidential election may be controlled and determined by Congress.” In conclusion be holds that no power exists in the coustitution authorizing the measure, and pronounces it “unconstitutional and tionar ‘The bill was, of course, promptly passed in both houses over the objections by the neces- sary two-thirds vote and is now a law. By its provisions Congress is, perhaps, to have the power to muke the next President, for it defines which States shall vote and which = shall not, This is the power lo say who the man shall be, and we know too much of the present Congress to fancy that it will scraple at any assnmption of power merely because it involves ao invasion of the people’s rights. The bill in regard to the electoral vote ordains that Congress shall not count the yote from any State that is not pre- viously represented in that body. At the time of the adjournment of this session there will still be several Siates in that category, and when Congress assembles again it will be known how the people of those States have voted. Congress will be governed by that fact in what it does in relation to those States. If they have voted for the demo- cratic candidate, no power ou earth will get their representatives in, and those voles will be lost unless there shall be a aufticieat n jority ov the other side to muillify them, I that case they will be taken in to make a show revolu- of fairness, If, on the other hand, any State of those ont shall have gone with the republicans and its vote = shall be necessary to win, no _— iniquity in the shape of a constitution will keep it out. This is the plan. By this the people may see that Congress deliberately prepares a pretext to defeat the popular will if that will | should not suit the republicans, and by the assumption of a power to declare what States | shall participate in the choice of a President | practically makes itself the arbiter of that | choice, And on this subject Mr. Jobnson’s \ argument is ¢ Necessary as it may be } that the question of what ex-rchel States shall j vote shall be definitely settled, the law leaves their votes completely at the will of Congress, to he rejected or accepted even as the result is unfavorable to doninant majority. 1! urity that the de- fon of the Southern States entitled to | representation will That de- ' . ; faver of the y in ore is no now ted. be respe peads pon how (hey vote and who they vote for. | ‘Vyrauuy in Egrpt—The Viceroy and Mis | Vaete. fa yesterdays issue we published a letter from | a Washington correspondent calling our atten- | tion to the protest of Halim Pacha, addressed | to the representatives of foreiyn Powers. nduct of his nephew, | against the tyrannical c } the and appeared in’ the | Heranp of June 25.

To destroy auch a road will be an act of vandalism which those who ing feature in the universal desolation which surrounds the capital of modern Egypt. We cannot pronounce a decision in this case until the facts are more completely before us. If, however, the Viceroy should proceed with such violence against his uncle, it will not be more wicked than many things he has already done towards others. No more greedy or grasping individual lives than the Viceroy of Egypt, nor is there any living man less seru- pulous as to the means he employs to accom- plish his ends, Before he made himself the hereditary ruler of Egypt he had already made two-thirds of the soil of the country his own, and few who know him will be surprised if he now drives all the rival members of his fumily His brother, Mustapha, is no longer in the country, and Halim, his uncle, is now in his way. It is possible to be too keen, and Ismael Pacha, in spite of his immense success, may so find it to his cost. Debt and Taxes in France—Debdme in the Corps Legislatit. It has long been notorious that France was burdened with an enormous debt. It has been difficult, chiefly from the irresponsible churac- ter of the government, to get at figures. It is difficult still, but the difficulty, thanks to the Corps Législatif, is not so great as it once was. We have all along been tanght to be- lieve that though the empire was a little ex- pensive it was laying the foundation of the great France of the future. It now appears that, so expensive has been the empire, the most likely thing to happen at the Emperor's death will be national bankruptcy. After fifteen years of imperial rule it was natural to expect grander budget at the hands of the Umperor — than one — which shows a deficit of four hundred and forty millions, and which proposes to meet that deficit by a fresh loan. France has been great under Napoleon the Third. She was grest also under Napoleon the First and under Louis the Fourteenth. But it will not be wonderful if after the greatness of Napo- leon the ‘Third sorrow and humiliation should follow, ax sorrow and humiliation followed the grandeur of the first Emperor and that of the Grand Monarque. Trae, itis not for us to talk loud about debt and taxation. But there is this important difference between us: France Is an old country, with resources well nigh exhausted; ours is a young country, with resources only beginning to be developed. If in both cases the burden is heavy, for us, at lwast, there is hope. “O1p THap's” New (aracumenr Ar Gone Over.—It is given out from Washing- ton that ‘Old Thad Stevens” has concluded to say nothing more this session on his new impeachment articles, He seems at last not only to be satisfied with the republican. Presi- dential ticket and the democratic, but that impeachment, as a rawhead and bloody bones to frighten ‘Andy Johnson,” has served its purpose. At least il appears that he has been made to understand that sach is the opinion of the Hou It is not impossible that some things may vccur in the interval to the next meeting of Congress in November or December to make it an object with the radicals to get rid of Mr. Johnson before the 4th of March next; but it is uot probable, inasmuch as there is no longer any inducement on his part to keep up his profitless conflict with Steveas and Butler on his policy against their policy. Ua- questionably his true policy henceforth is to get on as quietly as possible to the end of his term, and let the republican party (which has dropped him) and the democratic party (which has deeli to take him up) fight out their hattle between themselves, Tue Reason Wity.—The reason why Col- lector Smythe was rejected by the Senate as Minister to Austria, we suspect, was not be- cause of his alleged complicity with the im- peachment bribery ring, of which Thurlow Weed was the head manager, nor because of Mr. Smythe’s want of the necessary qnalifica- tions for the Court of Vienna; but becanse the radicals of the Seaute, under a new Coilee: tor, had their fears of a new division of the Custom House spoils, ta other words, the Senate voted not so much against our worthy Collector's appointment to Austria ax against his withdrawal from the Custom House at this a fear of Tammany Hall. crisis and ft Unrrecepksrepiy Dert.—The canvass far for the next Presidency. nals ave pulling and blowing with considerable activity to get ap a whirlwind of excitement, bot they have hardly s# yet raised a ripple on the surface of the body politic.
