Johnson to continue his journey
the South, says: :
"And in presence of thecitizens ' 1 4r1:1 offi
cials of New Orleans, lug might rel46l:e the
lawless violent Fpirit which recentlY i culmi
nated in riot."
Gen. Sheridan, if not directly at llmplication, ,
imputes the "New Orle t , ms riot
to the policy of ; Johnson. Certlin it is,
that the rioters, while eng:igeii their
bloody work; cheered for Johnson Lio nye
one of his telegrams as an excuse and shield
for the murders committed. And their
faith was well founded; not one of them
has been punished.
Such a course on the part o f A n dy wou ld
verily be " Satan rebuking Sin."
Els,.The Hew York Tbfies, in its new
love,ntakes use of some very queer language,
for instance:
"It is not necessary to adopt any mea-1
sures to demonstrate the unani npity of the
southern people in support of theadminis
tratiou policy of restor
at.on us opposed to t
the dongressional policy of reconstruction."
NO One doubts .that' the Rebels are

NE -JERSEY
Ratification of Constitutional Amend
ment—the Democrady give up the
Contest in the State.
MENTox,Sept.ll.—The Constitutional
Amendment Was ratified by the New Jer
sey Legislature to-day. In the Senate the
vote was 11 yeas and 10 nays, and in the
House the yeas \were 34 and the nays 24 1 1
The joint resolution ratifying the amend
ment was promptly signed by Gov. Ward.
The mess:lo.° was greeted with great_ ap
plause in hoth! Houses. The Legislature
then adjouined till next Monday tnorning.
a After the adjournment a leading Demo
cratic rnemberjoid to a Republican, "You
have knocked the insides out of our elec
tion; yeti Int 4 left us nothing to fight for
iu November."-
Mellon. A, G. Cattel, Radical, has been
unanimously nominated forrUnited States
Senator in place of StoatOn, cppperhead,
and will be elected, in all probability, on
Tuesdav next.
The Maine Victory.
The moral effect of thiS victory is really .
astonishing. It has carried terror, and in
many cases despair, into- the conservative
ranks. Some seek shalloW excuses to pal
isle their rout, ethers own indeed it was a
terrible defeat, but aro willtng to continue
the fight. The New York Herald, a spe
cial pet-.of Andrew Johnson, but withal a
competent jUth, , ,•e of the wishes of the pop
ular heart!, hangs out the white flag, and
surrenders at discretion. It is in simple
despair. It says:
" And so we find the, generous and ac,
ceptable restoration policy of the President
turned into contempt byisquads of southern
vagabonds, here and there, playing into the •
!hands of northern radidals tad fanatics, in
such scenes of lawlessness and bloody vio
hence as those of Memphis and New Or
leans. Such ghastly scenes of disorder are,
we are .satisfied, as revolting to the masses
Of the southern people as to the people of
I the North; but in the stubborn fact that
such scenes are enacted in southern cities,l
I with the connivance of the local author-I
air's, and -that the guilty parties escape
without punishment, the northern mind is
naturally drawn to the conclusion that Pres
ident Johnson's magnanimity is thrown
away, and that the intractable spirit of the
rebellion still prevails throughout the south
" If the moral effects, therefore, shall be
the triumph of the stringeht radical party
of exelitiien, against the President's gener
ous and 'conciliatory policy of southern re
storation, the southern pecple may charge
lit to those vicious and rebellions elements
strong themselves which southern political
leaders have permitted to be used by north
ern radical agitators for their party . pur
pos,?s.
• " Whatever may have been the causes,'
however, operating to brin g about the ex.
traerdinary losults of thit Malne election,
it is too decisive against the Democracy
tiny Conservatives to be confined to thie f
State; of illaiaL IVe, apprehend that, as
a all our political contests , of the past of
I a national character, the result in Maine
indicates the general draft of the-elections
i coming after it thronyhout theYorthern i
I States. The prospect now of a Conser-I
!votive majority in the nest Oonaress
very doubtful; the prospect of another
radical Congress is better than it has up
! pectiled at any time since December last.'
fn Short, this Maine election of 1806 will
\ probably mark another new chapter in our
political history, and perhaps another moor
gamzation of parties, and another recon-:
straction of party platf6rms for the Presi
dentihl election, beginning with the close of

6 4 SIGNS OF' TILE TIMES."
MI
The following editorial from the'New
York Herald is among the many signifii
cant "signs of the times:"
THE RECENT AND THE COMING ELECTIONS
-THE 'PRCSPECTS.
It is an historical axiom that revolutions
never go backward.. Its truth hai been
affirmed in the great political events of this
country since the adjournment of Congress,
and especially in the recent state elections.
It was reasonable to suppose that the Jaco
binical violence, recklessness; and ferocity
of such political reformers as Ben. I3utler
In the east, Senator Chandler in the; West,
a , d Parson Brownlow in the South,Would
hn e a damaging effect upon their. party
whe brought to judgtnerit before the peo
ple; b t it is strikinly apparent from the
rerilt o the recent elections in Maine: that
the popu , mind is controlled by:. larger
questiops,:a:ainst which the sayings or do
ings of, this ,r that fanatical politician go
for nothing. a . great body of the'Amer
ican people to which we are indebted for
the suppression of the most formidable re
bellion in . the history of mankind are ,evi
dently determined to have substantial se
curities for the future before they pronounce
the good work of the restoration of the
Union complete:—that, in short, Southern
reconstruction shall rest upon the solid
foundation of the Federal Constitution, re
gardless of the diSturbing forces Of radicals,
copperheads, rebels, ruffians, or fanaties,
North;' or South.
Frbin the elections which hare Occurred
' since '.the onstittrtional amendment .was
I adopted by ,Cono-ress for the reconst!ruction
of the Southern States, we are satisfied that
the aineudment is to become the basis of
[
southern restoration— . —that it will' early and
be carried by all the Northern Stater elec
tions yet tolcorpe, and that, with New Jer
legding!off, it will
,be ratified by them
all, anl become part and parcel of ;tiler au-,
Preme law Of the land. Nor have We any,
tear of the consequences. Therejs nothing,
aftor.all,so very objectionable in thislamerxi
ment---nothing Which President Johnson
himself hasMot,.at one time or another, re
commended to, some southern State or to
Congress; 411i1 nothing upon which there,.
should have been a disagreement between
the President and Congress. Let us for a
moment loOk at this amendment again. It
is as follows and is called the
POLICY OF ILECONSTILLCTION

I
'
hiss amendment is the reconstruction
li
plat and platform of Congress, and there is
1 ~
no !., froou reason, we say, why it should not
have been adopted also by the President,
ma. much as he stands committed in some
,
sha e to all its provisions. -: It is not the .)
Wl:Align] of Thaddeus Stevens, Sumner, or
ant' of the noisy radicals of Congress. They
.
can do;nothing. It was adopted against
their renionstninces and in spite of their .
i
threats llt emlodies substantially, in fact,
the President's original programme, And if
,
carried in these October And November .
elections—as we predict it will be; from,
MassaChusetts and New Ydrk westward-1
we trust that the Administration, in defer- 1
ence to the will of the people, will come
back tO it. Why not? •• Surely this amend
ment engrafted upon the, Constitution t'vill
-be amply sufficient for the restoration of
the Union, internal peace,.sectional harmo
ny, and the security of the government and
the treasury for many generations to come
agamSt all disturbing factions of either sec
tion. i Parson Brownlow,in leading off with
the State of Tennessee for the ratification,
has shown that a good thing may be done!
by a bad 'man and air a bad:motive; but
that Tennessee should thus lead off for this
amendment is a vervlremarkable and 'sig
,
niticant fact—that New Jersey should next
follovi, is almost as strange; a but from goo d
,
or bad desirms 7 thus started 7 the amendment
,
will surely go through. ..
The President's quarrel and rupture with
Congress was an unfortunate mistake. From
recent. events, South and North, it is clear
that ft will prove a fatal blunder to his ad
ministration, l unless he abandons it as the
issue.before the people: The old contests
in England between liino. and Parliament
are full of instruction on this subject. Had
Mr, Johnson taken our friendly advice, and
madet, eis incr S uishing features 'of his ad-
minis'iration a vi g orous foreign policy and
a sound financial system, he might ere this
have ;become as popular a President as
Andrew Jackson. He has yet a fair'field
befor6 him in which to retrieve his misfor-
tunes. Let him begin ae novo, by a re
construction of his Cabinet, beginning with
his particular rriarplot, the Secretary of
State; and let him give us'a cabinet and a
policy, foreign aid domestic, sb'sped to meet
the exigencies of the day and the develop
ments of public opinion, and his adminis
tration may still become universally accept
able and gloriobsly successful. We speak
to him as a fri:nd, and we - think , in the
voice of the peipte. ,

When Logan was here la .st. be called:at the
White House and obtained a. private- inter
view with Mr. !Johnson., It wad acouple
of !days before he spoke in denunciatitli of
t,ll, Presidential course. The sol-
di?r expostulated with the Tennesse, exec-1
uttve as to the policy of the latter, asiaring
him of his mistake, and declaring, the pea- I
pls generally opposed to his pblicy. This?
We President doubted. Gen. Logan, with
friendly but emphatic: language, assured i
him that the West was' determiMid that
the South shop Id not cony, c. dept qui
their ternis,.ltl e West. would net stibunt to
less. God l' was Mr. Jolinsoninso-
I lent reply, will make theist; they shall,
submit: 'ilr. President, they won't ,do
It,' said ,'General Logan, 'not even it' in
re -
sistin,. the attempt they have tollian ,
and Jeff Davis on the same treeY Of
course the interview was abruptly fermi- -
noted I Andrew Johnson continues his at
tempt at the consummation of 'my !polic'y,'
and John A. Logan is at work ,on the
prairies rousing the people 'w
'ith thht sense
of danger Which the accidental President;
has contrived to arouse in the breast ,of
every earnest man with whom he has come
- in contact."
Thfl N. Y.. Times thus speaks of the
vote of Congress increasing the pay Id its
Meinbeis: , :
"The extra $2.000 was needed to Secure
their re-election. Each Member has that
sum extra, to be devoted to this specific''
purpose. The Radical Members are dins
put. in possession of a• grand corruption
fund; amounting to something over $300,- -
000,74m0ng the members—nearly every
one of whom is to be a candidate for re
election. It was proclasmed before the ,
session closed i that Congress must be' sus- .
taine4 by the re-election of its present
members. It is now clear that this in
crease of pay was one of the practical
measures by which this result is to be
brought about."
—All .which impels us to
1. Has the Editor,of l'The Times taken
"the Gxtra $2,000 ?"
2. Does he oG does he not prestime that
he will need it to secure his re-election?
Dare he let his readers knoW that the
proposition to increase - the pay of Congres's
was moved in the House by Mr. Nilblack

4. Dare he let them . r . know that' while a
