The case is black all through, and we trust is to have some daylight let into it—though that won't help the losers much. deliberate - THE RIGHT AND WRONG OF IT, The N. Y. Times thus sets forth the prospective difference between the President and the Senate respecting appointments to office s WAR UPOX THE PREsDENT.—The war of words which Congress hus waged from the commencement agaiust the President. is takiog snotber form. The Senste bus s0 amended the Post-Oflice bill s to deprive all officers appointed | by the President from compensation ! gression, it is well to remember, was wholly anprovoked. » Wanion a wault upon the President.

A sifting prooess awaits them. They cannot, as heretofors, secure in their rl.m, burl their anatbemas and fly their poisoned arrows with mpuity. Sea's that bave kuown them so loug will sova kuow them no more forever.” —Surely a forcigner would infer from the above statement that the offices in question were the private patrimony or official perquisite of the President, or, at the very least, that he was vested with the absolute disposal and control of them, as the Kingin a mon- archy is ** the fountain of honor.” Yet our Federal Copstitation (Art. 1., Sec. 2) expressly says: Yo shall nowinate, by and with the consent of the Senate, all officers of the United States whose appolntments are not —Here it is seen that the adrice as well as consent of the Senate is made essential. Say what we may of ite wisdom or fitness, this is the paramount law ul"the land. ; The President and the Senate were elected by the same party. To that party belong the great body of our present Federal office-halders. The Senate is in full and hearty accord with at least nincteen-twen- tieths of that great party. If what is termred “ the President’s policy,” as contradistinguished from that of Congress, shall prevail, it will be carried almost entirely by the votes of those who immeasurably de- nounced the nomination of Andrew Johnson for Vice- President as & Nutional disgrace, and opposed his election as one utterly nufit to be made., These are notorious facts—as well-known to The Times as to us. ‘The attitude and composition of parties in Congress accurately reflects and represents the division and all subdivisions of the People. Now, then, the great mass of the Federal office- holders are notoriously in sympatby with the party to which the President, Congress, and themselves are alike indebted for their places; and for this they are threatened with progcription and removal. The Pres- idential rod is shaken over their heads, and they are told that, if they fail to *‘support the President,” they shall ng longer *“cat his bread"—that they shall bo pitched ont, neck and heels, to make room for such as will respond to the declaration that the great majority of Congress are disnuionists, and s much traitors as ever Jefl. Davis and Beauregard were! Ought the Senate to submit to such a use of the offices which the Constitution says are to be filled with its advice and consent? 'We gay it should not. And we say furtber, that appointments by the President, in the recess of the Senate, which he knows the Senate, if | gider here: | troops, many of thos 5 1866, will do what 1s openly threatened by those who noisily commend bis policy and assume to speak inbis interest if not in bis behalf. We fervently trust that the President will do nothing calculated to widen the breach between him and Congress, We aim only to chow that the Senate has rights in the premises, and that, in seeking to protect those who are in accord with it from removal because of such accord, it is act- ing within the limits of its power and the sphere of its duty. The wisdom of the particular measure by which it has proposed to achieve its end we may con- afte INFORMATION WANTED AND GIVEN, When in the Summer of 1364 a call was made for liable to draft in this city fur- nished s tes, Six months later, in December, another call was made, and it was decided that the excess of men raised over the quota due in July should be credited to the number to e raised in De- cember, Th therefore, who bad provided substi- tutes in July became entitled to 8 drawback of a certain sum each from the State, on the claim of the County, Precisely what that sum was has been only recently decided, The amount is $400 to each prin- cipal who furnished a substitute under the July call, the whole sum being $325,000 due the County of New- York. Within a few days for those claims, and p offered varions sums rang Tow many of them bave been sold we h g, but we know that in some- cases the of- g from $30 to $250 cach, no means of knod fors have been refused, and the claimants have insti- tuted iries to learn whether they were entitled to which to get the ed information s the ofice of Mr Orison Blunt, Chairman of the New-York County Committee which bad charge of the enlistment business. A letter from one of the ¢ 1ants to Mr. Blunt has remained, we are told, six days unanswered, Anothier gentleman has applied in person several times at Mr. Blunt's office for an interview, but without suce Unable to got infor- mation at first hands, he has asked for it of a clerk in Mr. Blunt's of and was assured that they bad no Kkuowledge there of the claius having been allowed by the State, or of the receiptof any money in liquidation thereof. The inquirer, however, was not satis fied, ‘The anxiety of the person who had called upon hitn to purchase his claim, so evident that he had in- creased his offer from $100 to $300, convinced the owner that he was probably entitled to something more than the last offer. Hisnest inquiry, therefore, was direeted to Albany, and he learns that the amount allowed this county is, as we have just stated, £1325,000; that he, for having furnished a substitute, | is entitled to $100; and that tho full sum was | paid over to Mr. Blunt, Chairman of the Committee, somewhers about the middle of last month. b On which statement of facts, there will prob- ably arise in the minds of intelligent readers— especially in those of the eight hundred men who are entitled to $400 each, some of whom, perhaps, have been selling thom to bounty-brokers at more or less discount—several anxious querics, a3 thus: If M ved this money, why wasu't the public If it wasn't worth while to give it to the public—the public generally being considered a nuisance, and n titled to any information—why has Mr. Blunt been inaccessible to parties directly concerned, who sought the requisite knowledge? Where did the bounty-brokers got the informa- tion, denied to the claimants, which led to the sudden demand for their claims on the substitute money!? And finally, into what pockets goes the differenca be- tween the & 0 due those legally entitled to it, and the sum which is really paid to them by the afore- said bounty-brokers ! If many of these claims have been bonght up, that difference must be considerable, and as one of the persons who has been endeavoring to make purchases is an employeé in the Controller's office, possibly he may be able to furnish the informa- . the demand for which, on the part of 8 curious public, will probably quite equal that for claima on the part of the bounty-brokers for the last ten days? At any rate, as this statement will probably bring a good many callers at Mr, Blunt's office for the next few days; it is to be hoped that b will find it con. venient to be in, or that the young ** Barnacles " who represent him in his absence will baye some informa- nto give to the men * who como here and waut to oud will kezp coming. —_— KENTUCKY DEMOCRACY. Wo donot deem it wholly a misfortune that the Rebel Demoeracy of Kentucky bave reorganized, and will probably take possession of tho State. The day that sees their return to power will be laden with ca- lamity to the Unionists, white and black; but it may save tho country from secing eleven other States haeded over to a similar despotism, A Georgia Unionist suggested, lately, that the Government Blunt has rec informed of it? the Rebels to take charge of the States. o was con- fident that in less than thirty days notonly the Union- ists, but the Rebels themselves, would pray for the restoration of military power and of order. Perhaps he was over sanguine, but we do not doubt that the example of one State in the entire control of the Rebels would serve as a warning for all the rest. Hence we bope for a good result, ultimately, from the prospeetive triumph of the Kentucky Democracy. Ita convention in Louisville on .Tuesday manifestly expects such a triumph. If its mauagers had been in doubt, they would have put the Union foot foremost —as they tried to do during the war, when a great proportion of their rauk aud file were in the Confed- erate armies, The conflict being now transferred to the ballot-box and the Rebels all at home again, their party leaders wisely refuso to run any risk of alicnat- ing their followers by allowing control or prominence to the men who kept up even a sham Unionism dur- ing the war. The only name of any note not cpenl connected with gecession is that of old Gov. Wicklifle, who was & member of the last Congress, aud used to make everybody wonder Low he conty oath. As for the rest of the Convention, wo will take the testimony of The Louisville Journal: * W nssure the people of Keotucky that the peace, harmony, and safety of the State are moro serfously imporilled now than they have been since the ruthless hordes of Buckner and Bragg were trampling down our soil. Tlie same men whoso treachery to the Commonwealth and the on favolved the country in civil war five years ago; the same men who robbed and en- couraged the robbing of our bauks, the destroying of our rail road_bridges, the firing of the dwellings of our aitizens, and sought to establish Rebel Provisional Governments oves by which to coereo fecting a political oy acing ber political power exclusively in the han 0, baving been whipped ot their own game of powder arp now secking to use the baliot for the achigyerent ful political schemes. The personnel of the Se- which assembled in this city yesterday, Are per pose of he suceess of this party in the August election is rightly anticipated as a vindication of the rebellion, and as the restoration of the secession Breckenridge Democracy.

We have already given an abstract of t olu- tions adopted. They are silent on questions of State administration, but loud-veiced on matters of national policy, and on what Kentucky will do or refuse to do if her will is unheeded at Washington, They propose to support the Government so long as its views and acts square with their notions of Constitutional law; when they differ, Kentucky reserves the right to switch off the track, and perhaps try once more to go with the ‘“sister States.” Keeping out the Rebel States is & “ palpable and flagrant violation of the Federal compact,” and— | “Against all such action we enter our solemn }\rnlr»t. and denounce the Radical majority in Congress as false and re- creant to the Constitution, as men who liave resolved either to humiliate and degrade th ple of opo section of the coun try, and make vassals of its citizens, or to destroy the Union of tlo States.” Intermeddling by Congress with suffrage is another flagrant ontrage, and s ** usurpation of power,” and a “humiliating and degrading condition” to which no ato ought to assent, and if Congress attempts it in Kentucky, it will ba deemed * not ouly an infraction of the @oustitution, but a gross aud palpable inva- sion of the reserved rights of the States"—which is the precise case when the contingent loyalty of Ken- tucky expects to merge into open hostility. Yet we don't believe they will be mad enough to try it again, It is necessary to pretend the purpose in order to conciliate the ultra-Rebel vote, and it will not in the least weaken the closeness and tenderness of their alliance with the Nortbern Copperheads. Perhaps it is needloss to add that the Convention indorses Pre- sident Johnson without reserve, and pledges him its most enthusiastic support. THE MINSSOURI OATH. The Missonri Republican respords to our request to “quote the test cath, and show why and wherein it debars from voting any one who has been on the side of the Union throughout the late struggle.” Of the oath it says: “ The new Constitution of this State declares (Art, T, Sec. 3) that at any election held by the people, ‘b0 person shall be qualified voter who bas ever been in armed hostility to the Usited Stutes, or to the lawful authorities thereof, or to the Government of this State, of has ever given aid, comfort, conn. tevance, or support to persons engawed in any such hostility,’ with & long list of other disqualifications.” The oath pre- cribed for yoters was intended to cover this prov i 7ons being required to swear that they are well a with the terms of the third seetion of the second article of the Constitution, and that they have never, directly or indirectly, dono any of the acts thorein specified.” 1t then undertakes to show that this oath debarred from voting, among others, Gen. Frank P. Blair, because he commanded a regiment of United States forces at the capture of Camp Jackson in 1861, whick was under command of Claib. Jackson, then Governor of Missouri, The only question at issue is, therefore, whether Gen. Blair by the act of attacking the Claib. Jackson camp, was, in the meaning of the section of the Constitution above quoted, *‘in armed hostility to the Government of the State.” Wo answer that it is absurd to say that he was. Gen. Blair has stated his own case in his proceeding in the United States Circnit Court against Ridgely and Thompson, the Judges of Election who refused his vote. He saya: “That on the breaking out of the late civil war, the plaintiff took up Arms ia support of the cause of the Union acd laws of the United Statee, and st Camp Jackson and otber fields, as o Colovel commanding a regimest of United States Volunteers, was in armed bostility to the then Government of the State of Missours, headed by the Rebel Governor of snid State, sup- ported by the Miseouri State Guard. a Rebel military organiza. tion goiten up u der an act of the Legislature of tle State of Missonri, and commanded by one Sterling Price, a Rebel Gen- oral cominissioned by Gov. Jackson, and in arms sgaiust the said Government of the United States.” The question was argued at that time very fully by the Hon. Gharles . Drake, and we do not thiuk that argument can bo answered. We should be equally content to rest the case on a single point, popularly stated. The State of Missouri was one of the United States. Its \Governor aud Legislature had taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States. | In a certan limited sense, Claib. Jackson and his ad- ministration might be said to bo the ** Government of the State of Missouri” so long as theyacted within the scope o their official duty, aud in accordance with their oaths, The moment they stepped outside of cither, they ceased to be in any sense, and for any pur- pose, the ** Government” of the State. When acting as it is admitted Claib. Jackson was acting, in viola tion of his duty and of his oath, whoever opposed him was no more opposing the ** Government of Missouri” than would a sheriff have been had he arrested the Gov- ernor ou a warrant for embezzling the public funds. To maintain any other theory is not merely to assert the legality of See has a vested interest in his office which cannot be de- stroyed by his malfeasance; to declare that the State is powerless to arrest oné of its own officers when a wrong-doer cither within or without the scope of his duty, and to carry the doctrine of personal inviolability further than the law of Great Britain ever carried it in reference to the Crown. Claib. Jackson was in arms against the United States Government at Camp Jack- son, and though ke pretended to summon the militia to support him, tho State, he might as well have summoned the militia to aid him in committing a highway robbery, If he bad done the latter, and Gen. Blair bad resisted bim, or had attacked the camp from which the robbery was about to be committed, does The Missouri Republican think Gen. Blair would have been **in armed hostility tothe Government of the State!” We pause fora reply. e— GEN., LEE FOR PRESIDENT. The Mobile Register has placed at the head of its col- | umns the name of Gen, Robert E. Lee as the State Rights Democratic candidate for President in 1365, The Memphis Argus thinks the time has not yet come to propose the name of Gen. Lee for this high | office. It says: -+ Surely, they are no good or true friends of this geaud | ol man, who, in the present posture of affairs, would drag his great name into the flthy atens of party strife.

Security ! Their promises to pay, like greonbacks, are good without indorsers. The report of Gen. Sprague, Chief of the Freedmen's Burean for the State of Arkansas, shows that during the month of March nearly 5,000 of the white inhabi- tants of that State, and about 500 freedmen, wore fed by the Goverument, Death of € Gureweki.
