The radical work of re-construction
has been both a failure'aml a humbug
from the start, aud the re construction
acts are a disgrace to our staure books.
Every attempt of congress, in this
matter, since the close of the war has
been a miserable failure, and emigres
has had to do its work over each res
nod, because reconstruction was Both
ing more than an attempt to force the
south into going for radicalism.
Where carpet baggers did succeed in
getting temporary foothold trouble has
inevitably followed. No le#* than
four radical governors are now on
trial for crimes and misdemeanors.
They are Holden of North Carolina,
Clayton of Arkansas, Sutler, of Ne
brasba, and Reed of Floriila. \\ hat

of reconstruction ! How it red< unds

From a list of jurors printed in
another coluiuu, it will be seen that
Samuel Nathan, colored, of Miles, has
been drawn ajuror, for week com men

. ing drawn in this state since the pas
sage of the loth amendment —in one
of the eastern couuties.a few w < i ks ago,
a colored man was also drawn a- a ju
ror. We ho;** this circumstance will
not occasion liny rivalry and ill IVding
among Mr. Nxthan's brother jurors nl
the radical persuasion for the same
week, in that each one may be arabi
i ious to be seated aside of Samuel,
much less do we hope that any of tln-m
who have gone the full length of wor
hip for the African, will turn up his
nose if Samuel's chair in the
tfox be next to said radical friend, lor
we assure such au one that the "com
ing man" is plenty good enough to sit
aside of, eat with and sleep with any
(Vntre_ county rad., for thus were

Gran's Humiliation of Sumner.
Grant has revenged himself upon
the Massachusetts -Senator, for the
i present, but we think L'harics will
knock the segar out ot l lvsees' mouth
one of these days, when he ri.-es in the
senate. The President has succeeded
j in humiliating Sumner, hv having him
removed from the chairmanship of the
-citato committee on foreign re lations.
On the 9th the caucus of republican
-enatore met at eleven o'clock, with a
full attendance. The committee con
-istingof Messrs. How e, Sherman, Nye,
Pool and Morrill,appointed to arrange
the standing committee* reported that
they had performed their duty, and
j submitted a report.
Senator Cameron was placed at the
! head of the foreign relations committee,
and Mr. Sumner as chairman of a nw
committee, to be called elections Mr.
Sumner immediately arose and declin
ed the proffered chairmanship, and
challenged criticism upon his conduct
uuring the twelve years he hud served
upon the conimitteeof foreign relations.
Mr. Snmner spoka for a lew miuute*
i and then withdrew from the caucus.
It is not known what influenced the
i caucus committee to change the pro
! gramme agreed upon last night, to
make Mr. Morton chairman in place of
Mr. Sumner.
After Mr. Sumner left the caucus,
Mr. Howe took the floor and defended
the course of his committee in remov
ing Mr. Sumner from his foreign rela
tions chairmanship, and said that Mr,
Sumner was a hitler enemy of the pres
ent administration, and that it was
absolutely necessary that a change
should be made in the interest of the
republican party. Mr. Sherman fol
lowed, taking au opposite view, and
claiming that no reason existed for re
moviug Mr Sumner, and that it was
an iusult to republican* in all sections
of the country. Mr. Trumbull follow
ed, taking the same view, and defend
ing Mr. Sumner from the charges mode
against him. After Mr. Trutnhuil had j
concluded, Mr. Sehurz took tie floor
and advocated Mr. Sumner's {ositiou.
Mr. Sumner's friends say they will
be able to defeat the action of the cau
cus committee, and have him retained
in his present chairmanship. Failing
to do this, Mes.-r.-. Wilson, Sherman.
Morrill, Sehurz and other say they w ill
take the matter from the caucus into
the open senate, and there, where the
proceedings are public.
Some of the President's strongest
friends regret deeplj that he has bWn
led into recommending the displace
ment of Mr. Sumner from the f osition
which he has held for ten years, hazar
ding, as it doc*, the future success of
the republican party.
Tie excitement this morning was
very great, and the most careful ob
server# say that if the caucus ratifies
the action of its committee, a split in
the republican party is inevitable. It
has transpired that the programme for
the removal of Mr. Sumner was ar
ranged between the President and
several senators on Monday and was
carried out by Senator Anthony, who,
it is alleged, agreed to appoint a com
mittee to arrange the standing com
mi;tees named by the President hut
Failed to keep hi* agreement ami nam
ed only one senator, Mr. Howe,out of
five whom the President desired to con
stitute the committee.
The motion pending in caucus is to
recommit the report of tlie committee.
[SECOND DISKATfTL]
The debate in the republican sena
torial caucus on the proposal to re
move Mr. Sumner from the chairman
ship of the committee on foreign re
lit oiis was hot and exciting on both
sid< for several hours. The debate
continued and was finally closed l>\
the caucus sustaining the projawitinii
of the committee contained in their re
port for c3i.-j>!acing Sumner. A vote
was taken on the matter and resulted
in a majority of four in favor of re
movai.
It is understood, however, that Mr.
Stunner will still have a place on the
committee. L'ji to the very latest the
friends of Senator Sumner entertained
the hojiethat the caucus would decide
in hi* favor.

[Washington Correspondence Cin., Com.]
As I sat today in my place in the
reporters' gallery 01 the Senate, the
main door tn the chamber below swung
open with a bang that indicated the
approach of royalty, and all eyes were
turned to see first the majestic nose
and then the graceful body of the High
Custodian of the Bootjack and Keeper
of the Royal Card Basket, Brig. Gen.
Dent, step in. Advancing in u gra
cions, dignified manor to the first step
of the serious loading down to the main
floor, the High Custodian assume.l a
lofty attitude. He placed his left hand
in the small of his military Lack, and
pressing the other upou his custodial
heart, he gated at the Vice-President
in that top-loftical style |>eoulinr to
I'd win Forrest in "Mo'tumora." when
he makes some incisive remarks touch
ing hi* inability to get up a lie at a
moment's notice.
Soon as the eagle glance ot the tiia
jestic Dent caught the eye ot the \ ice-
President, he hinged his corpv* at that
point where the leg? end ami the body
begins, making a motion v ry like that
indulged in by little boy* when other

poured from otir longing gaze through
the opened doorway ot the Snate

Any one who, in days past, lias been

The House proceeded to btniuees,,
and for a fow ininute* there was eoiu-|
parative quiet. But soon a disconten
ted cahul, which had been disappoint
i ed in certain pet schemes, aud wished
i to stave ofl' all other business, raised j
another general row, ami for a space
of ten minute* there was such a
how ling and wild uproar as only the
inmates of Bedlam can ever know. A
' concert of wolves, or the caterwauling
of a troupe of angry mousers, would
most aptly typify the scene. Ooej
gentlemen becoming more excited than
-cemed necessary, the Speaker very'
politely requested him
"NOT TO THAI: HIS uuin unt,"
Amid the unparalleled confusion
and hubbub that ever and unon pre
vailed, the Speaker, Mr. Carter, a qui j
et young man from Cameron parish,
stood puding his fragrant Havana,
and beating the devils tatoo on the,
table before him. He seemed fully
aware of the important provisions ol
all the bills proposed, and whenever!
the ayes and noes were called, he inva
riably decided that the needed provi
sion was carried. Sometimes the noes,
were louder and more obstreperous
than the ayes, but Carter knew a thing
or two, and always decided,
"Till: AYKS IIAVK IT."
That was the way to d<> it, and the!
only way uuder the circumstances
The Speaker at one time remarked,;
"The noise is so great I can't heur,"
and, with a pleasant equivoque, contin
ued "I am partially deaf, and have but
one car, but it would take forty ear*
to hear all your motions." About
10:30 o'clock many of the members
and a goodly crowd of the lobbyitcsj
bird punished their regular quart of
benzine, and the yelling became inten
sified. Howls, whoops.
SCREECHES, AND CAT-CALUS

Important Dcri-iou Cotirernlng
I'roniUory Notes.
The following is the substance of ft
legal decision which appeared in the
Legal Journal of this week. Our rea
ders will do well to bear in mind as
it tuay save them loss of several dul
lais which might result from neglect
to fill the btauk neccewarily left in
printed for notes, in case the (taper
-hoti Id come into |tosse*ion of a boua
jidr holder after having passed through
the hands of a rascally one: By a
decision of Chief Justice Thompson,
of the Supreme Court, it is held that,
where a blank had been left in a note,
at the time of filling up, singniug and
delivery, ami afterwards had been in
creased in amount by writing over the
blank, the maker, was answerable for
the full face of the note as altered, af
ter it had passatl to a bona Me holder
for value, in the usual rourse of busi
ness. The case was that of Garrard
vs. Hodden, error tu the Common
Pleas of Fayette county. The maker
of the note filled in the words "one
hundred," leaving a blank between the
words "hundred" and "dollar*** in the
printed form. The pay-e afterward*
tilled the blank, by inserting "ami fif
ty," thus making the note call for "one
hundred ami fifty dollars." In this
condition it was purchased by tbe
plaintitT, and the drawer refusing to
pay the face of the nwte, suit was en
tered. There was uothing on the face
of the note to show the slightest altera
tion, and the handwriting and the ink
were the same, and there was no crow
ding of the words, the blank giving
ample room. The drawer was held to
have invited the fraud of his own neg
ligcncc in delivering a note that admit
ted tampering with. He could have
saved nil difficulty by scoring the blank
with the jeii. As between the maker
and the payee, the alteration would
have made the note void, but not so
ns between the drawer and an inuocent
holder for value The Chief Justice,
after riling the authorities on the point
says: "We think this rule is uiiceMH
ry to facilitate the circulation of com
mercial paper, and at the same time
increase the care of drawers and ac
ceptors of said jaiiHT, and also of ban
kern, brokers, and others in taking it.
Phis rule will not apply to cases where
the nlteratimi is apparent on the face
of the paper.''

The great uiogul of the Republican

spying out the land eu tbe l'reei
denlial ijue*tioii and has come to the
follow ing conclusions:
Firstly, That the neit electiou will
be very closely contested, —more
closely contented than any electiou
since 1H44, when the Democrats were
triumphant.
Secondly. That the Republican,

of rsi ominatiug General Grant f r

reason:
"It is true 1 have only 11 mouth*
longer to serve, but it is now thought
that our present superintendent will .
be removed and a ihsmocrwt put in
II place, consequently we fear we will '
have a hard time uuder a [h-ntocral

AN ACT.
To ptovid* far the compulsory education of •
children of sound mental and phvsical
health between the age* of six and elev
en year*.
Section I. Rr H rnactnf Ac That from (
and after the passage of this act it shall be
unlawful for any person or persons in this
Commonwealth having the charge, control
or care of any child or children of sound
mental aud physiom heallh between th- |
age- of six and eleven years to cause or al- .
low the habitual absence of such ohild or ,
children from attendance at the common ,
schools or from school* known at priva's <
schools or academies, or from other sources ,
of regular and ccinpetant education; and ,
such permission or neglect on ths part of |
the |>er*on or persons aforesaid, shall be .
deemed a misdemeanor, and upon convit- .
tion thereof, he, she or they so offending,
shall b sentenced to pay a tins not exced
ing one dollar for each snd every child, HI d
for eech and everv day so absent from tbeir
neglect or permission a* aforesaid, or un
dergo an imprisaament in th# county jail <
or work house for a period not exceeding |
one day for each and every child, and for ,
each and every day so absent from their .
neglect or permission, or both nt the di*
rrelinn of the court.
The shove it s espy of the first section of
shill introduced in the I'< uttsylvania Lex*
i.lnture, to "compel psrents to send thsir
children to scheol st ths tender age of six
years, psy s fine or go to jail. Think of s
poor widow, who is obliged te wash or sew
to maintain her small children, say she has
two, who do not go to schools, and may
receive Instruction at homo; the children
grabbers demand a dollar a day for each
child for the entire time they are absent,
which may be three months. She cannot
of course pay the flue, and must be torn
fTom her children and suffer imprisonment,
six onths in the county jail or workhouse'
whilst her children are left to starve or b
sent to the poor house. This is the work ot
Republican legislators; this the humanity
and tolerance of the radical party. Con
cerning the spirit of this hill ws shall have
-omethipg ft tbar to say in ths future, not
withstanding the deserved fete it has met
in the Legislature, having been negatived.
