FEDERAL AND STATE OFFICIAL PAPER.
SATURDAY ------- OCTOBER 21

Revival of Nullification -- The Laws of the United States Trampled Upon.
We entertained the hope, while the war was in progress, that the triumph of the Federal Government would forever set aside the heretical "Resolutions of '98" and firmly establish the clause of the Federal Constitution which declares:
"This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States, which shall be made in the pursuance thereof:

shall be the supreme law of the land. 
The hope which we cherished seems doomed, like other hopes, to be blighted. Calhounism and nullification in the South, are not dead: they still exist, vigorous and defiant, and seem disposed to challenge the union again to violent conflict. The people of the South were disposed, we believe generally to acquiesco in the result of the war, and submit to the laws.
But the case is different with most of the pardoned rebel leaders who have come out of the army, and back from their pilgramage to Washington, now the Mecca of their devotions, to dictate, as in the past days, to the people. Many of the prominent Southern journals are openly attacking the Test Oath, established by United States Laws, and advising the people to nullify it, by electing men to office who cannot take it. Here is a sample of these nullification editorials, taken from the Atlanta New Era of the 17th inst:

But to the point. It will be recollected that in the summer of 1862, when the "rebellions" (so-called) was at its height, the United States Congress, as a war measure, conceived it to be a duty to pass a stringent test oath, which oath applied to all, who after that date should hold any office under the Government. In that oath the party elected to office was required to swear that he voluntarily given no aid, counsel or encouragement to persons engaged in armed hostility to the United States, and that he had held no office and yielded no voluntary support to any pretended Government within the United States, and no title thereto."

This act remains upon the statute books of the United States, and we know, it is thought by some that it will be applied literally to the whole South. But such a view we regard as erroneous, and for this reason we cannot, as a public journalist, advise the people of the South to elect only such men as can take the oath: "because if we gave this advice we should feel that we were giving advice that would result in disfranchising the whole South  We cannot now think of a man in Georgia, who was a resident of the State during the war, who has not in some way, given aid or [[conniensece?]] to the "rebellion;" and if this test oath is literally enforced in the sense in which the Intelligencer views it, the inevitable result will be that the South will go unrepresented in our Congress. Our Congressional elections would be a mere sham and a farce if this erroneous construction is attempted to be put up in the oath alluded to. We are satisfied that it was passed as a war measure, and under no circumstance would President Johnson lend himself to a measure which would result so completely in disfranchising the South. When he extend an amnesty to any person in the South, who has participated in the rebellion, it would be a stultification of language to suppose that he is not fully pardoned for all past remissness, and, therefore he resumes the status which he occupied before the war.

Our advise to the people of the South is to select men who are now good and true, without respect to past party affiliations. A man who has served in the rebel army, or who has otherwise participated in the "rebellion," and who has since been declared pardoned by the President, should not be debarred from a seat in Congress.

How very submissive and repentant is this language, from one who had been engaged in rebellion: But no; we do the Era wrong, for it merely confesses to being overpowered, and indignantly scorns the supposition that it feels one pang of repentance in its soul. It sincerely regrets that the rebellion did not triumph. Of course the Union members of Congress, who are in a large majority, will not for a moment think of revealing or mod-

ism and spiritual rappings? Let them teach the lessons of peace, and they will reap a blessing in the shape of good money, in this world, and a better reward still in the kingdom of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

The speech of Senator Frawler, of Knox, on the bill to admit colored testimony, will be read with interest. His judgment and heart were both for the bill, but he felt himself controlled by the positive instructions of this constituents. We earnestly and respectfully beg his constituents to give this important question a more careful and impartial investigation. They are patriotic, brave and faithful. Let them add to these splendid virtues the wise foresight of philanthropic statesmanship.

In calling the attention of the Southern and Western trade to our facilities for furnishing the above goods (and everything in connection with this branch of business) we would direct especial reference to the superiority of the Oak, Pine and Red Cedar Ware manufactured in St. Louis and Menasha, Wis., over the products of other manufacturing districts. Unlike our competitors in the older States, we have a class of timber to work up which years ago has disappeared from their forests. That of the Upper Mississippi is not to be surpassed in quantity or quality, and our pineries in Wisconsin continue to be as productive as ever of first-class timber. It is from these sources we procure our material, and the result is that our ware surpasses in stock and excellence that of any other market on the continent. 
An impression seems to exist with out Southern trade that Cincinnatti possesses advantages over St. Louis in furnishing our line of goods. Prior to the development of our resources, and the impetus which late years has given to our manufacturing interests, this may have been the case; but now, for every dollar's worth of our ware manufactured in Cincinnati or vicinity2, there is one hundred dollar's worth made in St. Louis, and that of a quality superior in every respect to theirs. The same thing applies to Massachusetts, whose manufacturers are compelled to offer their goods at low figures in consideration of their inferior (and almost worthless) quality, Numberone ware is to day sold at a less price in Chicago and St. Louis than it is in Hoston or Oak Ware
