whimsical and 6eltish way, we take It from thoe
we are accustomed to trust, and give It for what
It is worth. The whole pcheme of attempting

Idea of enforcing his demands. But he knows
that, In the absence of any positive statesman
ship, it is perleetly safe to bully England. It
lathe euenpe.-t and most popular act that any
Preoident can try, is always iu order, and gene
rally eerves its turn. The mlsloriuue is that it
is not very respectable. When an Administra
tion lias uottitng left but menace, it becomes
disreputable and weak. ,.!,
Tup story about the French claims is or tne
same nature. Mr. Seward, Mr. Johnson, and
Central Urant, talking over Mexican airairs,
are ol no more consequence than any other
three ecttlemen conversing on that subject.
Thev l.sve no power to pay the French
ciams, nor to accept any territory from
Mi xico. That is the duty of Congress. At the
same time, the President may make it a
'policy," and entrap the unwary and heedless.
We certainly do not want any Mexican land.
We have enough to sell, without aiding to our
Pos-essioni. .Nor do we cane about paying
rench claims which we cannot verily, and the
justice of which the Juarez Government has
always disputed. We have enough debt ol our
own; enough of a false, irritating, inflated cur
rency to mauage, without borrowing money to
tribe France.
This new policy if policy it really is Is as
bad an anything that Mr. Johnson has dune.
He might have asserted the honor of America
towards England during the Fenian troubles.
He had an opportunity to commend to England
the chalice the so persistently pressed upon us
during the war. He might at least have shown
aoine respect for the rights of his American
fellow-citizens, if not for the feelings ot a large
body of them. This would have been the true
way to have asserted the Alabama claims.
Instead, however, he sent his chief officers to
the border, hurried off troops, arrested Ameri
can citizens, seized the telegraph wires, and
rifled private express cars, to please England.
President Johnson showed the real bent of his
mind then, and his tricks now are too trans
parent and false and necessitous, too much
inspired by political design, to be accepted in
pood faith. The Administration must do better
in the "policy1' business. These springes may
catch woodcocks, but will not carry Wow York.
Reconstruction The Material Interest
of the South.
From the Herald.
I Affairs down South seem almost to have come
to a dead-lock. Those who have no cotton are
very badly off, and those who have cotton are
not In a much better position. The Freedmen's
Bureau und the tax collectors between them
have taken possession of the crops, and not a
bale ran be moved until the Government three
cent, tax is paid, und until the authorities of the
nigger bureau certify that each one of their
proteges has received his dues. This delay is,
of course, productive of great inconvenience to
the planters, who are paying as much as three
and a half per cent, a month far loans of money.
What with interest an brokers' advances and
loans, and the depletion which somehow inva
riably accompanies the handling of cotton by
Bureau and Treasury agents, there will be very
little of the staple felt when it returns to it
rightful owners. To add to th? general per
plexity, the entire crop turns out fighter than
was expected in every State except Texas, where
the amount raised is ereater than the most san
guine estimate; tor Texas Buffered nothing by
the wai, and had tne use of labor and of capital
from other parts of the South. In Georgia,
Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana the heavy
ireshets which occurred in July and August
materially reduced the cotton production.
Thus the Southern States stand, without
money, without credit, with a short crop an I a
desolated country. They need capital to re
develope their resources and It bor to cultivate
tbeir wasted lands. The only way to obtain
these is by a restoration to the Union, and by
the flow ot confidence and capital which wiil
follow on that event. The only way to obtain
this restoration is by an undelayed ratification
of the Constitutional amendment. There is no
valid reason why they should not take this
course, and tbat right speedily. It Is in entire
accordance with the submissive views which
thiir leadeis express on all occasions, public
and private. It is in general principle what
their generals, Lee and Johnston, Longstroet
and Hood, would advisp them to do. It is the
will of the North, and to that will all their best
lricuds would urge them to bow. Governor
Sharkey, though he argues against the amend
ment now, was not half so sure in Jane last
whether the South had not bi tter make terms
with Congiess. Howell Cobb unhesitatingly
expressed his readiness to do evervthin" the
HorilTrequired. J
No one, In short, but the most rabid news
paper editors men like Rives Pollard, who
wi re writers in time ot war and now would be
fighters in time of peace bave ever urged
euous objection to the principles of the amend
nient. The Southern people-the better class of
thorn do not want to restore slaverv; thy do
not want to repudiate the national debt in favor
ot the Rebel scrip; they do not want to do any
thing which the Constitutional amendment pro
hibits. The proscription of the leaders of the
uebellion is tne only clause about which there

Demands of the Extremists.
fVom thA Timnm. '
The fact that the Republican party has won
Its victories, and is carrying on its canvass, with
g distinct declaration that it endorses the Con
stitutional amendment as the basis of Southern
restoration, appears to stimulate the extreme
radicals to Iresn extravagance in their demands

THE PAHA EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 18CG.
set forth their plan In an address issued on the.
completion of their pilgrimage. And the de
mands tlipy make are lew and emphatic. They
nnk, in the flist plsce, tht the existing organi
zation ot the Southern Slates shall be consid
ered null and void; that all that ha noun done In
respect to State Government since the war shall
be put asMe as inoperative and Invalid; that
thev ehall be treated as conquered territory, in
rceaid to which the work ot Government and
law must be coinmcncd Benin de novo. They
require, in the next place, that the power of
governing in the Ststcs to be thereafter organ
ized snail be coniind rigidly to tno-e who may
come up to their standard of loyalists every
black man being assumed to be loyal because of
bis color, but the great majority of white men
to be dislrancLUcd and held in subjection by
the white fad. on which Mr. Hamilton shall
pronounce poli'lcnlli orthodox.
The impracticability ol the project does not
mitigate Its wickedness. It may be doubted,
indeed, whether the question of feasibility for a
moment occupied the attention of the authors
of the addrpss. They did not pause to consider
the means of giving effect to their requirement?,
or the consequences which their adoption would
entail. What signify consequences to adven
turer? f What care they for the anarchy that
will follow the sweeping away of existing State
Governments? the annulling of their action
ratifying the anti-slavery amendment to the
Constitution? tho destruction of the shield
which State leghjlntion has thrown over the
civil rights of iiecdmen? the ignoring ot the
State repudiation of lue Rebel debt? All these
are trivial considerations in the opinion of the
hnndful of worthless fellows who would fain
monopolize the law-making and the ruling
power in the South, and to that end are prepared
to precipitate ten Stales into fi confusion woise
than that which Immediately followed thp snn-
pression of the Rebellion, but the North has
too much at stake in the isue to permit the
Brownlons and Hamiltons to trv their hands at
the incendiarism they selfishly suggest.
The reconstruction of the Southern States
may not have been accomplished in strict ac-
coroanco with constitutional forms. Irregu-
Isri'us occmred in connection with It. tor
which it would be difficult to find exact prece
dent or logical justitlcation. But it has been
completed. Congress aud the country have
recognized it; and as it is so it must stand. Not
the slightest eood can result from nn acitatinn
of the subject. The pait or wisdom is to accept
so much as has been completed, and to make
existing lacts the fotinJatiou of any further
guarantee oi national unity. Tne proposed
Constitutional amendment ii desirable, because
it presupposes the suilicicncy of what has
already been done, and renders the constitu
tional security complete without unsettling the
compact between the Government and the
Southern people.
me oisoigtinlzing and revolutionary scheme
of the "Southern Loyalists." however, is not tlip
only indication of tha mischief which the ex.
treme radicals would inflict upon the country.
Wendell Phillips has propounded his plan, too.
hnu tnouga nis process tuners somewhat Iroui
mat aevisica dy irownlow ani Hamilton, the
result rimed at is the same. Ho is not, wild
enough to talk of overthrowing existing State
Governments, or of c ousiguing State affairs to
a few b'gearly and unprincipled adventurers.
jiui ne oppoies any settlement which does not
embrace negro suffrage, and he wou'.d so manage
the business of restoration that no Southern
Stale shall be broueht 'lormally" within the
Union until after the next Presidential election.
Meanwhile he would get rid of she President by
impeaching and deposing Lira: and would se
cure the airay by putting a more accommo
dating General in the place of Grant. "Then we
win run tne machine," exclnims the fiery Phil
lips. Yes: when these tbines hannen. donhl-
less, the revolutionists "will run the machine."
With the President removed, and General Grant
ofliclallv decapitated, and the Southern States
reduced to territories, and me Southern whites
held In bondage, and with Browolow and Culler
and Phillips "running the machine," the condi
tion and late of the republic might be confi
dently foretold. What would Five twenties be
wot in t hen ?
The indifference of these extremists lo the
peace and material interests of the country is
equalled only by their contempt tor the Con
stitution and the law. Nothing is re-peoted
which obstructs their path. Not bing is heeded
which interieres with their designs. To the
financial exigencies of the country, to the
critical conditions of it3 Industry, to the crav
mg of the people tor harmony and peace, they
are sublimely indifferent. They want no peace,
because in confusion is their sole chance of
prominence and profit. And their highest
conception of statesmanship lies in the exhi
bition of despotic power, and the cultivation
ol passions that would disgrace a tribe of sav
ages, as to the Constitution, that is an old
lojy instrument, of no avail in these limes
unless for the moment it serves their purposes.
And the law they heed must be the lav of
heir own making. To all other law they are
opposed. Hence their projects are framed with
an entire disregard of the principles and forms
of law, and of all authority not subject to their
manipulation.
Some of the consequences of the temper which
these extremists have introduced into the dis
cussion ot the grave questions belore the
country, are apparent in the lawless threats
which are now prevalent from Maryland to
Missouri. Everywhere the radicals ot the ultra
stripe seem disposed to take matters into their
own hands, ana lo assert their right to rule,
whether the law gives them wanant or not.
From Baltimore, for instance, we hear of armed
organizations, of appeals for physical ad, of
preparations lor btreet conflict. And lor what
puipose ? And under what provocation ? Why,
in view ot the possible removal by Governor
Swann of Police Commissioners who are
charged with violation of duty. The law makes
the Governor the judge during the receBs of the
Legislature; the case is brought before him in
conformity with law, and he declares his resolve
to te governea oy tne law in any action he may
take.
His position in the nremises is lesallT linnreir.
nable, aud the spirit in which he approaches his
duty judging from his reported re warn a is
unobjectionable, if bis decision be at variance
with law. the law furnishes the means of rprtrniB.
Yet, forsooth, the radical faction declare that.
iw vi uu mw, iuo i-oiice commissioners snail
not be removed: and preparations have been
made by the mob lor armed resistance to the
lawiui auinoruyoi itie Stale Executive. The 1
same violent and lawless temper is discernible
elsewhere, in Missouri especially; the doctrine
acted upon by the radicals apparently being
mm, uiiui;i me preten.se or superior loyaitv, tbey
are at liberty to plunge the country airesh into
Btrile and urmed contention.
National safety requires the maintenance of
law, whether against radicals or Rebels, and the
prevention of trouble by hastening the restora
tion oi me union on me moderate basis pre
scribed by the Republican party. By this method,
more readily than by any other, may the revolu-
nuuuiy sciH'uies ox me radicals oe eitectufclly

When a Protestant declalmer like Henry Ward
Beccher changes his whole view of God's poli
tical messages to mankind thrco times in three

casm as old Niuean Winzet, the indomitable
antagonist of John Knox, poured upon the
Scottish nriesta

the net ol Cenvebtion, and "whereas at 'Easter
they teaclied with great appearing zeal, and
ministered unto us the sacraments in the Catbo
lio manner, at Whitsunday they had changed
their standard to tho plain contrary." But the
head of a church which stands as the direct
ri preventative oi the Almighty may accept the
providential modifications of things earthly
without loes of prestige or sacrifice of princiole.
A clear perception ot this, as well as a masterly
forecast ol the drift of modern events, may be
iaulj enough carried to the account of the Em
peior Napoleon III when we review bis connec
tion with the Roman question iu tbe light of
the events which are now so rapidlv coming to
pass In Italy and at Rome, "in tho time of
Dante," sas Ugo Foscolo, in bis famous "Dls
corso,'' "in the time ot Dante the Church was
the slave of Fiance, as to-day she is of Austria "
In these words, which were written tony
years, ago, and which only began to cease to be
ti ue on the day w hen the soldiers ol the French
Republic entered Rome and drove the "Trium
virs" before them, wp Lave tho ample justifica
tion of the pol cy which France had set on foot
towards Rome before Louis Napoleon came to
the Presidency, and which Napoleon has pro
secuted so tenaciously and so warily up to its
now vls'ble and rapidly approaching culmina
tion ol triumph. He must be a very irrutiontl
or a very ill-informed Italian who, in the retro
spect of the las-l seventeen years, fails to see
how utterly tatal to the hones of Italy would
have been the abstinence of France from inter
ference with the ephemeral reian of the Gari
baldian triumvirate in the Eternal City. Aus
tria, victorious at Rome as well as at Novara,
would have fastened herself not only upon the
Papacy, but upon all Italy, with a hold which
must have changed the whole subsequent his
tory oi our litres.
As things now are, Ihe withdrawal of the
French trcops Irom Rome leaves Italy free from
all peril ol foreign complications In her rela
tions with the Papacy. To suopose that in
adjusting these relations the Government of
Victor Emanuel will forget how delicate and
how multifarious are tha ties which connect the
Papacy with the religions life of Christendom
nt farce, is to suppose tbat the able and adroit
statesmen who have already established their
fiim bs to succeed the great and successful
Cavour will suddenly lose, in their hours of
triumph, the good teuse and tbe sound judg
ment w bleb, have carried them and their coun
try so brilliantly through the hours ot trial.
WhetLer the Italian capital shall remain at
Floienceer be tiansferred to Rome; whether
tbe Pope shall be provided lor out of a fund to
be raised from the piety of Catholic Christen
dom, or out of tho exchequer of the Italian
nation thee are questions ot administration
and detail out of the settlement of which R is
hardly possible that any serious mischief should
arise to the cause either of Catholic order cr of
Italian progress. The vital point in the Roman
question was settled when, by the cession of
Venetia to Italy, Rome also became Italian.
Whatever temporary passions may be excited
by, whatever temporary inconveniences may
attend, the retotrnition of this fact by the
Roman hierarchy, it inevitable consequences
must bo speedily reached, and reached to the
infinite advantage alike of Italy and of Rome.
