▲ Confession.
That the whole object of Reconstruction
by-negro-snffrvge and white disfranchise
ment, has been said is, to prolong the He
publican party's ascendancy we have often
asserted. Months ago their journals used
to deny the charge indignantly. They
told us that their reconstruction measures
were the best they couid devise for the
good of the country. They scorned the as
persion that a mere partisan purpose to
prolong their party ascendancy was the
sole and only aim of all their measures.—
We now have to thank the Tribune and
the Times for opening the new year with
a plain confession of the truth of the mat
ter. Says the Times:
44 The Radicals in the Republican party
intend that these Southern States shall be
readmitted to the Union in time to be rep
resented in the R> publican National Con
vention and in the next Presidential elec
tion, provided the suffrage lau>* they adopt
are such as to give assurance that their vote*
will be 4 on the right side *
44 Through the agency of the Congres
sional Committee, the operations of the
Freedmen's Bureau and the secret macbin
| ery of the Loyal Leagues it is believed the
votes of every one of them can be secured
| for Judge Chase; and when this is made
! reasonably certain, they will be admitttd to
i the Union whatever in other respect* may be
j the chancier of the constitution* they adopt.
44 THE GR4KD AI SI AMD OBJECT OF THOSE
WHO HAVE CO!VTROI.LED THE ACTION OF THE
REPUBLICAN PVRIT SINCE THK WAR WAS
CLOSED, HAS BEEN TO BECUUE TO TIIF.M
-SELVES THE PRESIDENCY
44 There has scarcely been any conceal
ment of this purpose; indeed it has been
avowed as the sufficient reason for the re
construction policy that hut been adopted.—
And it is not likely to be abandoned or
modified in the slightest degree, now that
tbe time for its consummation is so near at
band."
The Tribune is less frank, but it is none
the lew inspired by the cold, remorseless,
partisan purpose, so explicitly admitted by
the Timet. It upholds the Reconstruction
policy, we assert, solely because it is the
only means of securing the next Presiden
cy for tbe Republicans. Filly, therefore,
it defends the Rcconstruction-by-negro
suffrage policy because, not applied to Ma
ryland, the Republicans lost the State,
whilst applied to Tennessee, they gained
the State. Says the Tribune :
44 The triumph of the conservative or
rebel party in the latter State (Maryland)
is a standing proof of the result which
would have been suffered in the eotire
South bad the Republican party lacked the
courage to extend the'right of suffiage to
the blacks. The Republicans of Maryland
bad at one time the power to make suffrage
impartial, but dared not. As a fit conse
quence and punishment they now hold not
a single office in the State, ana are politi
cally as helpless as the class they feared to
enfranchise."
lleconstruct-by-negro-suffiagc ! thus op
enly cries the Tribune, because, so Recon
structing, you may save the Republican
party by the Southern vote. We lost Ma
ryland proclaims the Tribune to its adher
ents, for lacking boldness to impose tlegro
suffrage there. Let us ndt lose the ten
States South of the Potomac for lack of
boluness to impose negro suffrage on them.
Says the Tribune again :
44 In Tennessee, on tbe other hand, im
partial suffrage has secured the political
control of the State in the hands of men
who were loyal d.ring the war, and who
were in favor of equal political and civil
rights for all. The same experiment on a
larger scale, witli the same results, was in
evitable in the ten reconstructing States."
Browniowism has kept Tennessee for
tbe Republican party, cries the Tribune.
Therefore let us apply Browniowism to
the ten States south—our ten Irr lands.
We have dit-franehised enough whites in
Tennessee and giv*n the ballot to all the
blacks, whereby Tennessee votes the Re
publican ticket. Let nsUnfranchise whites
enough, and drive up the "negro platoons to
the ballot box in our ten l'olatids, sa\ s the
Tribune, and we shall be able to carry
them also for tbe Republican party.
Beware of peaceful Maiyland, her vote
is against us! Behold Brownlowizcd Ten
nessee, her vote is with us! says the T'>-
bune, Reconstruct by negro suffrage and
white disfranchisement, because it gives the
best security for prolonging Republican
rule!
It remains for the people of the United
States to say whether they can afford to
have the country ruined to keep a mori
bund political party on its legs four yeare
longer.— World.
A SENTIMENTAL JOURNJ r,—Apropos of
the walking mania now so prevalent
throughout tbe country. M.. John Quill
makes tbe following offer: *1 will walk with
any good looking girl, who has a fortune in
her own right, upon any given moonlight
night, both parties to go as slow as they
please, and neither to hurry back to tbe
starting point, I will then, on tbe word,
walk into her affections, and walk off with
her fortune."
A HltUs girl happening to hear her mother
spanking of going into half mourning, said :
"Why are we going into half-mourning,
mamma? Aro any of our rslattoov half dead?
The Negro Man.
We take from an exchange the follow
ing article, complied from news in different
parts of the world, illustrating the capacity
of the negro for government. It will not
arrest our Radical knaves in their diaboli
cal career of Africanizing American States
but it shows what may de expected from
the miserable experiment which they have
on hand.
From the West Coast of Africa [old Cal
abar River] we have details of the butchery
of twenty four persons, men, women and
children, in October, by order of King
Archibong. The poor creatures had been
basely betrayed into Archibong's bands by
other negro chiefs to whom they had fled
for safety, and who had promised to protect
them, l'be heads of nine of these victims
were cut off, packed in a cask and s< nt to
the king, for him to examine and gloat over
at his leisure. A party of missionaries and
traders living in the dominions of this mon
ster, forcibly rescu> d four of the doomed
ones, a man, woman and two children, and
placed tbem on board a ship in the river.
King Archibong demanded their surrender
but the small but determined party of
whites not only refused to give them up
but favored the cowardly tyrant with a
piece of their mind ; tilling hnn that if he
did not stop his barbarous practices Euro
peans would find away to make him do so.
To this maolv defiance the wretch yielded
and soon after the four rescued captives
were at sea, on their way to a place of
security. The same courageous band of
white men had saved six other prisoners
from a horrible death, in the month of Sep
tember—a month when King Archibong
revealed in a saturnalia of blood and cruel
ty. No better evidence could be adduced
of the superior mettle of the white race
over the black than that a mere handlul of
missionaries and traders should beard this
incarnate demon in his own den. where he
is surrounded by a host of warriors faithful
ly devoted to his service.
Recent intelligence from Ilayti is quite
of a piece with the foregoing. In Uayti
the blacks have had every opportunity and
every incentive for demonstrating their
capacity for self government and civiliza
tion. And yet we find, under the thin
varnish of a semi-Christianized cxteiior,
the same brutal passions which distinguish
the governments of old Calabar River and
Dabomy. General Leon Montes, a captive
revolutionist, has been poisoned, and then
knocked on the head with a crowbar, bv
his jailor. In this atrocious murder it is
reported that President Sainave is an ac
complice. Universal alarm and discontent
reigned at the capital, and foreigners w.-re
| flying to Jamaica for safety. In addition
td this comes the rumor that i-ix millions of
counterfeit paper dollars are in circulation
I in Hayti, and that the government con
nives at this fraud also. Sainave left Nov
| ember 20, on a tour of in-pection amo- i
his arsenals and powder magazines, aud
! was evidently preparing new horrors for
h>s political opponents. Sainave is a full
blooded negro, and has been represented as
trying to give to the world a specimen of
negro government, at its best, with every
thing in its favor. We shall now have a
chance to see in the future of Hayti, as we
have seen in the past, how little aplitudi
the negro race has for its own advance
ment : and we trust that the lesson will hot
be lost npon those who, at the safe distance
of New York and New England, are look
ing with philosophical serenity upon the
institution of similar experiments in the
Southern States, The last news from Ab
! yssinia reports the English captives alive
and well and the British army advancing
[ to their rescue through a parching desert,
and suffering greatly for want of water.—
No more melancholly proof of cruelty ig
norance and superstition of the native negro
mind can be found in contemporary history
than in the fact that this costly and troub
lesome expedition has been forced upon
England by the obstinacy of King Theo
dore. He is keeping these few English
men in durance, because it tickles his vani
ty to lord it over white men ; because it
gratifies bis instincts of tyranny to see them
suffer from torturing apprehensions of
death at any moment, anil because he is so
I ignorant of England's power as to suppose
j that he can defy it with his barbarous horde.
A very interesting meeting was recently
held in Philadelphia, composed of representa
tives from the following churches, and it is
proposed to unite them into one, hy adopt
ing the Westminster confession of faith, and
the Presbyterian form of Church G vornment
Old School Presbyterian, New School Pres
byterian, United Presbyterian, Reformed
Presbyterian, Cumberland Piesbyterian, and
Reformed Dutch Presb\ terian.
One of the darkies elected to the Massachu
setts Legislature, last year, as an example
for the "stolid Dutch of Pennsylvania" and
ihe ' ; half-civilized people of the Western
Slates," wa< a candidate this fall for re elec
tion, but got badly defeated. Mr. Ebony
proved to be a failure, both as a legislator
and in the matter of an example.
BONDS.—It is said that the United
States bonds have already paid as much to
the holder in the shape of gold interest as
the Government got for them, counting
the premium on gold at the time the boud
wcie issued. Wc clip the above item from
a thoroughly Radical exchange. It is cal
culated to set the laboring men to thinking
seriously. By and by thought will take
shape, and action will speedily follow.
DARK HOIKS.—TO every man there
are many dark hours, when he feels inclin
ed to abandon bis best enterprie-i-hours
when bis heart's dearest hopes appear de
lusive— hours when he feels unequal to
the burden, when all bis aspirations seem
worthless. Let no one think that he alone
bus dark hours. They are the common lot
of humanity. They are the touchstone to
try whether we are current coin or not.
A DEMOCRATIC MATOR ELECTED IN
PITTSBWKO.—On Tuesday, the 10th ult, the
municipal election came off in the Iron City
and wonderful to tell, James Blackmore,
the Democratic candidate for Mayor, was
elected over John IU. Riddell, the lie pub
lican candidate. Pittsburg usually goes
seven or eight thousand Republican.
Sound Democratic Principles.
Resolved, That the several States com
prising the United States are not united on
the principle of unlimited submission to
their General Government, but that by
compact, under the style and title ot a Con
stitution for the United States, and ot
amendments thereto they constituted a Gen
eral Government, for special purposes—
delegated to that Government certaindefin
itc powers reserving each State to itself,
the resiJuary mass of right to their self
government; and that whenever the Gen
eral Government assumes undelegated
power, its acts are unauthoritative, void,
aod of no force ; that to this compact each
State acceded as a State, and is an integral
party, its co-States forming, as to itself, the
other partv ; that the Government created
by this compact was not made the exclus
ive or final judge of the extent of the pow
ers delegated to itself, since that would
have made its discretion, aod not the Con
stitution, the measure of its powers but
that, as in all other cases of compact among
pouers having no common judge, each party
has an equal right to judoe for itself, as wc[l
of infractions ax of the mode and measure of
redress. The First Kentucky Resolutions
of 1798.
"1 hold this Government was made on
the white basis, by while men, for the
benefit of wbite men and their posterity
foiever and should be administeied by
wbitemen, and none others. 1 do not
believe that the Almighty made the negro
capable of self-government."— Stephen A.
Douglas.
"The Constitution was made by the
States and not by the people united. It
should therefore, read, We, the people of
the States United. It was voted for by the
States in the Convention, submitted to the
people of each State severally, and b< came
the Constitution only o< the States adopting
it. It is a Federal Constitution, and not a
NatiouaGl overnment."— Danitl Webster.
Mrs. E. Ca<ly Stanton and Miss
B. Anthony propose starting a newspaper
devoted to the cause of woman, especially
those who earn a living by doing a man's
work for half a man's pay. Tbe journal is
to be called %he Revolution , and to be
published at No. 87 Park-row, New York.
REDUCING W AGES. —The workmen
nearly one thousand, employed in the rail
road shops at Scranton, Pa., were notified
that a reduction of ten per cent, in their
wattes would be made on the Ist inst.—
The shops nave recently been working on
eight-hour time. The proprietors of the
Dixon lion Works at the same place which
employs about seven hundred men, gave a
similar notice to their employees, and will
also reduce the number of workmen by dis
charging many of the single men. Tbe
Lackawanna Iron Company, at Scranton,
recently discharged a large number of men.
A JUDGE SHOT. —Judge Bustecd, lately
of New York, and not of enviable reputa
tion there now practicing Judge of Alabama
was shot by District Attorney Martin an
other eminent loyalist. Martin had been
concerned in some Whisky frauds, and, a
presentment having been made by the
giand jury, the case was to come up before
Busteed. Two shots were fired, both tak
ing effect —one below the breast bone, tha
other in tbe leg. The shooting occurred
last week,
