The Ktjectlon ot the Constitutional
AnuudiutDt,
iron the Trilun. .
Thus fur. there has born no Important move
icnt in nny'of the Ucbt-l States m fitvor of too
Confltitutional amendment, unless we except
the attempt to elect Gctierut Dockery, in North
Carolina, a a representative of Its principle.
There Is certainly an earnest aurt intelligent
party in the South which approves it, and lu
elults not only loyalists, but the moro mode-
rate of the late Rebels. Yet this minority is
powerless. In North Carolina, Governor Worth
was elected by a majority of over twenty thou
Baml on a platform wlilch repudiated tbo amend
ment; in South Carol iiitt.fi over nor Orr advises iU
rejection; In Mississippi. Coventor Humphreys
bus taken the same ground; in Georgia, Gover
nor Jcnkina, In Ms mcftarp. described it as a
degradation the South could not en lure, and
the LegiPlature will certainly reject It; in Texas,
it has been formally rejected' by a voteot 70 tot.
Thus five of the ten States dare in affect re
fused to accept the terms offered, and the tone
oi tbc press in the others leaves llitlo room to
doubt ot their rejection by ail. Encouraged by
the President, and misled by the promises of
the Northern IXMiioorntoj the Kebtlfl fliloct to
consider us aishotieiable an offer which at the
end ot the war they would tuva been too happy
to accept. Bir. Johnmn has drawn them up in
battle array, and their allien in the- Relx-liion
eland with them as of old. The South still pre
sents a united front to the North, and is as ready
to tight now as it was in 18fil more ready, p r
hp, having nirre trust in its weapons. With
the President willing to da its bid.iinu, it is pre
pared to meet tho issue with Congress, and
trusts, as it did through the war, that by Ion
stubborunccs it will lire out the North, aud
compel it to submit.
The commercial interests of the free 8lates, it
believes, will finally compel an adjustment,
upon any conditions; Northern merchants may
like principle, but they love money; the Noriii
will jiPld at last, tiuding that th"? South will not.
In this faith, the Rebel States are prepared to
stay out of the Union until thy can re-cntor
njon their own terms. They look trick upon
the Rebellion with open repret for its failure,
and deny that it was, wrong; they indignantly
plead not guilty to the charge ot treason, and
spurn the emtcstion that any penalty attaches

iu mru m;iB. uiiiiuiy uutj eiuiruj ill, i uuy Claim
absolute equality with tho loyal States, ad
challenge them to tue comet. Who shall won
der at their pride? Astounding In itself, it has
ceased to seem so, for tho Soutn has had every
encouragement and temptation to assume tins
domineering attitude. Not a Rebel has been
convicted of treason, and even Jell'. Davis is
likely to be liberated without trial. By a usurpa
tion of the President, tbo Rebels were allowed
to organize btate governments, and suddenly,
to their great astonishment, found themselves
the masters of every Union man in tho tioiuh.
The Civil Rights bill passed by Conarets,
thanks to tho President, is almost a dead letter,
and Rebel Judzes declare it unconstitutional.
The Frceduien's Bureau is unable to protect the
frecdnicu, and lu nearly every Southern Statu i
the new labor laws establish serfdom in the
stead of slavery. Union men were massacred
In New Orleans, and tho President justified tne
act, and has refn-ed to punish tho assassins.
The Southern Stites wrre n it onlv toinpted, but
were almost foiced to resist the will of ihe
loyal nation. The Rebel leaders pushed thorn,
the Copperheads coaxed them, and the Presi
dent drained them luto the support of his
policy, and into defiance of the representa
tives ol the people iu the Congress of the United
States.
This was the situation up to November 0.
How far the Union triumph will chant! e South
ern policy it Is too early to judge; but it is
j-ateto assume that the amendment will not bo
adopted. The opposition has gone too far. But
the North will not recede from its demand for
sufficient guarantees; the amendment may ' be
come a part of the Constitution wilhaut the
ratification of the Rebel States, and, therefore,
the South may be shrewd enough to disarm
coercion by making an offer of its own. The
third section of the amendment receives tho
bitterest oppos-ition in the South, as it dis
qualified many of its most influential leaders;
and they will not conseut to ratify an article
which lorbUls them to hold ivil or military
office.- We believe that these leaders sincerely
prefer universal s utfraee with universal amnesty
to the amendment, aud trust that when they
tOTPsee, as they -now must, the necessity of a
choice, they will freely maice it.
We cannot expect it at once, out if the North
is true, and if in the South there is honesty and
courage enough to look the situation in the
face, it must come in the eud. Impartial suf
frage will render the condition of the third
section unnecessary; it will solve all.the ques
tions In dispute; it will funslytho free State",
without imposing a solitary penalty for rebel
lion. It would be tho hishest wisdom lor the
Rebel States to make this oiler; it would be
more than shrewdness, it would be statesman
ship. They know now tuat the North is re
solved, and will remain resolved. Either the
amendment or the concession, which
makes the amendment superllous, is demanded,
and the offer ot impartial suffruee by the Houth,
answered with universal amnesty by the North,
-would be the first honct compromi-e iu fifty
years.' Btrile; it would be the uuiou of the. two
sections upon a principle which would make
future compromise unnecessary.

From the Herald. u
The emphasis with which the powerful people
of the m'.ghty North have endorsed the Consti
tutional auiendraeut now before the States, will
be understood by a glance at the Republican
majorities, in round numbers, rolled up iu the
late September, October, and November elec
tions, viz.: '
62,000 Illinois 45,000
42,000 Michigan ii(J UO0
Uli buO Maine. 27,000

oraua aggregate maionty. 802 000
; There Is something positively amazing iu
these unparalleled and unbroken majorities,
. andinth.a grand aggregate of three hundred
aud sixty-two thousaud. We dare say. con
sidering the ravatres of the war in the South,
that this aggregate Norih-rn majority exceeds
the wholo popular voto which could no ,v be
cast, under their existing election laws, by the
whole ten Southern States excluded from Cm
press. Here, too, we have tho evldoneo, con
clusive and overwhelming, to the effect that
this Constitutional amendment to those tea
Slates is the ultimatum of tne North, and that
to tlie end ot i're.ment Jonnson's term of
mce there is no prospect oi anytumg more
favorable from Coneress. The issue has ben
fairly tried between ihe President and Con
gress, and the verdict settled to tho 4tu of
Match, 1km. ,
The President, therefore, can do uothtng and
' lias nothing to honn for in continuing to ariu.
ate his restoration policy against the plan of
iciotb. ai patriotic man ami asasu'eg
mm of experience unri tini'iu a pvnwt htm
; to yield tho road to the amendment and to let it
take its course. The recommendation to Coa-
trees oi a oui or, resolution binding thetvo
Horrvs to the admission of each ot the excluded
Mnten on its ratiliciition of tho amrndmrnt,
would probably not be amiss although we
regard the precedent ot Tcnm-asce a substan
tially meeting this proposition. In any event,
H now remains for the excluded States, each lor
itcelf, to determine either tor tue amendment
and a restoration to (Jon press and; our national
elections, or airamst the amendment, with the
rx luf.lon Horn tho next Piesideucy and from
Congress for an indefinite time to oomo. This
is the simple alternative now before tho South.
Next, in this table of Republican majorities,
we have the final demolition ol thi Northern
rump of the old exploded National Doinoeiatle
psrty. This pcrty, but lor its recent alliance
with the Admiuittration, and but fer the moral
and material aid givcu n by the Administra
tion, would hav been too weak to have mode
a struggle in thee late elections. In getting
under the wing of President Johnson it was
warmed, yea. galvanized, into a bIdw of Vigor
ous vitality; but with his failure to keep it on
its legi, it must gojnto absolution. Stimulated
aud tallied lor the moment by bis powerful
tonics and restoratives to a wonderful degree,
the inevitable reaction will be speedy and
fatal. The rump of the old Democratic party,
iu tact, has gone the way of the old Whig party
and the old Federal party, and its remains uuut
be turned over to some new pnrty ortrau-i.a-tion
not upon the dead issues ot th past, but
upon the living issues of this new epoch in our
politifnl l.istory.
In the present, or in the next Congress the
coutrovrr.y between the Republic in conserva
tives and the extreme radical faction must come
to a settlement. Kiom all the lights and indi
cations beore u, this settlement will be the
casting out of the radical iuatie4 ami the con
solidation ot the creat uartv ot tho future in in
union of all the sound conservative materiuls of
the counti v. North and Ninth. Renuhhean ami
Democratic, leaving the seciioual ultras, North
and South, outside the door. Thus Wade Hamp

The late Democrauc nartv. is cffectuallv used
up, and its elements must te recast in a new
form and with a new name: tor the DroMdue of
the old name has been chunsed by its war
record into public contempt. The Rpiiblieiin

The Democratic Party anil the Klectlous.
From the Timet.
We trust the Democratic party is satisfied
with the success of Its "little game" iu the late
elections. I it is, everybody else can well
afford to be content. The extreme radicals, as
usual, owe their power to the seldsh and unscru
pulous partisanship ot the Democrats; and tho
Union men can console themselves for what
ever good results tbey have failed to secure, by
the fact that the ascendancy of the Democratic
party has at all events been averted. It was
that ascendancy which tho Democrats sought,
and which the people feared more than any
thing el"e. The Democratic leaders in all the
States, and most notably in Pennsylvania aud
iNew, xorx uia;e tu restoration oi tueir party
to power the main aim of all their efforts.
xney heia everything everywhere subordinate
to ibis one obicct. They Mipportcd President
John.-on, partly perhaps because they agreed
with Mm, due mamiy to control tne patronage
and tho power at his command tor the attain
ment ot this one eua. rney enaorsed the Phila
delphia Convention partly because its portions
aLQ principles aeoea tneir assaults out mainly
bpcuuse tuey hoped to inoko lit he stepping stone
to party control in Stale and national atl'aits.
They used both the President and the Couven-
lou, remorselessly and recKies.siy, lor their own
advantage, and they hnve been utterly and
thoroughly overwhelmed with defeat.
Iho reason ot this result is putpaote. ilie
people diftruflt the patriotism and loyalty of the
Democratic pany, and will not trust the restora
tion ot the Union and the reformation of our
civil and political institutions to its hands.
They sec now more clearly than they could see
Detore tne war, mat, ine innereut spirit ana
temper ot that nartv were always at war with
tho best intere-ts of the uation. . The party, as
such, always allied itselt with the worst element
and most rjerilous Influences of the national life.
It was the allyot slavery not mmjily toleraut
of its existence, but the active defender of its
worn enormities and the open advocate ot ts
ambition. Out of its devotion to slavery and its
craving tor the power which slavery carried
with ir, it led the South Into the Rebellion, and
lacked nothing but the courage to follow it
thither. Throughout tho war, its sympathies,
as a party, were with the Rebellion.
Itreioieed in its successes it nmgninea its
merits and power, it mourned its defeats, it pre
dicted its triumjin it crippica ana nainperoa
e Government lu lta struugio against, it, it
threw out of the party as false and treacherous
those men who soueut to give vieor ana success
to the nation's arms, and it evinced la every
way and by every moans which can indicate
me spirit auu puipose oi party action, ine nio-t
determined aud ingrained sympathy witb the
Rebel movement. Such action in such n crisis
makes an abiding impression on the public
mind. Neither in the case ol individuals nor
ot a party is it soon lorgottuu. The people
long lor peace, lor the restoration of the Union,
for the resumotion of national prosperity and
power; but they want all this on tile basis ot
the Union principles vindicated and established
by the war.
Whatever differences of opinion have existed
in Die Union party should have been settled
within that paity and by irs members. Presi
dent Jobii'on always declared that he so in
tended; that he soucM ouly to save the party
which carried the country ihrough f he war from
falling into the hands ol estitiue men; and tuat
he htid no thought or purpose of taiowiugthe
poner of tho Government into the bands of the
party which h ad opposed the war, and whicn
was now ready to sacrifice its results to securing
its own ascendancy. It the President Had 'ad
hered to this purpose he could very easily bave
secured tho result at which he aimed. But ho
allowed the Democrats to over-ulo or overbear
him. Instead of aiding and .strengthening the
national sentiment in the Uuion lauKs. and thus
checking and thwartincr the Disunion element
which souuht to control it, he invoked rhe De
mocratic jiarty to the rescue. He rceoenized
the nominations ot that party everwhere as
those lor which he soueht support as thnse
which represented bis policy and Ins Admini
stration us t hrwe whose success was demanded
by the principles he dee.ned essential to the
public good.
And even nitr the Philadelphia Convention
had laid down a pl-itiorm thoroughly na'ional
in its principles, and upon which the Union
could be restored in at riot harmony with the.
results oi tho war and the principle on which
the. war has been carried to its triumphant
close, he still permitted the Democratic, party
to seize upon it tor its own advaul:e to
climb into power by its aid, to use it ior the
promotion of its own ends, aad the re-L-stub-lis-htrent
in the national councils or its own
supremacy. The Democrats in the Albanv Con
vention cared uothing for the Puiladelphla
Convention HOthing ior President Joumon,
noth na for the restoration of thej Union no
thing for the patriotic men who were struggling
for it, except as it could use them all to bring the
old Democratic party, as it had been organized
and controlled for the past Ave yeaiH, again
into power, Huit was the object and aim of
all their efforts Everything else was of not
the siluuienc consequence except as it could be
made to. ld in IU attainment. The'r , action
was ntr.dly aud v'ujojrGiislj- iwiL-n throvgbajt.
They held their party ort'ani.atioii, laid do.vn
their party platform, nut n t artv ticket in the
field, and aimed opculy and avowedly at a party
victorv.. And they niaitc the PrcMifint bele-ve
that the success of his principles d iviided oh
giving tbem party triumph aud the others in
his eut as essential thereto.
The result is now visible, an 1 is preoWelv
whateal'ij and dispassionate elisorvei-H kney It
would bo. The direct effort ol this policy vas
to iinl-e the Union party to consolidate all its
etrcntth against the Democra ie pnrty whose
sucirss was to be the death-knell ot its influence
on ra'Ioinl affairs. No man outsiao ti e ranks
ot the Democratic orgauiraiiou bad thesli'-hiest
InteteM, person il or political, In its succ, kb.
Indeed. cver. thing whicn Union ni"n hail
deemed essential to the public good wa directly
thieatened nith ntter overthrow bv the renewed
ascendancy ot the Democratic party. The people
would not tolerate snch a result. They would
not entrust the restoration of the Union to the
party which had sympathised with those who
sought its overthrow. Whatever the'r faults,
those who had saved it were tho most, to be
trusted in Its redemption. And so ibev have
continued the contiol of the nation's affairs in
the hands of the Union Party. How that control
is to bo exrrcisrd whether under the guid nce
of calm and patnotio counsels, or by pasion,
and ihe ambition of reykles and unscrupulous
men, it is for the future to reveal.

ftThe returns of tbo late rl'?et.u)y, which come
in by driblets, are calculated to confuse the
minds ot those unfamiliar w'.th the political
statistics of the several States as to the actual
result In each State, yet a little time spent in
tneir examination will educe order out of chaos.
In this State the Republicans have won the vie
lory, electing Reuben E. Fonton Governor over
John T. Uoltman by n majority variously esti
mated Horn 10.000 to 15,000. We hardly think,
however, that it will reach the latter tigure; and
it our prescut advices be continued by ihe
actual returns, it will be nearer ten .than fifteen
thousand. Of tbe oue huudred and. twenty

The Democrats have lost a Congressman in
both the Fourth and Filth Districts, but have
