HUmt aexi, if tke Aoa«a«m#at ratlal The Journal m progreeelve. It bae made quite a itep forward in 1U reeeuetruetlon notion!. On Thursday It expreeeed It* willingneae to wait until the South, from mottree of eelf Internet, If no ether consideration! Influenced the public mind In the late rebel State!, awakened to the ad ran tag; ■ they would dartre by accepting the plan of ad}u«tmeat offered in te hamendment. And our neighbor evan ventured the opinion that that a<tyntomcat would come aooner by a little patience than any counter project could be carried to a ■ucceeafUl ooniummatioa. The Itew York Strald, a flaw daya ago. In a leading editorial, entitled “ Congreaa and the South—a abort plan tar a decialve tettlemeat,” propoeea that If the Southern State! refuse to adopt the amendment, that Congress shall take a step in advance—add general amnesty and Universal suffrage—“ the admission to the ballot hex of all races and colors,of twenty-one years of age, except criminals and lunatics and Indians net taxed/' as a condition of restoration, and then send Oeneral Ghamt with ad army of one hundred and fifty thousand men to laforce the settlement. This proposition takes from the South any voice In determining their status In a restored Union. They have no choice in accepting or rejecting tbs amendment. Its submission te them under such slrcumstsnees is but an Idle ceremony. Concede the position claimed by the II: raid and the Journal, that the recant elections turned upon the adverse propositions of reconstruction, and what does the result show f in live great Northern States—New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois—2 440.939 votes were east, and the radical majority In all is only 146,147. Accordlng V* the radical theory of the recent election In the States named, 1,160,391 votes were cast against the amendment. In the settlement of sueh Important questions as arc Involved in the amendment, should not the sentiments of so powerful a minority be considered, especially as they have the same Interests at stake in the Issue as the majority f The South are nearly a unit in opposition to the amendm.ut. Add the Southern vote to that ef the minority In the North, and we find that an overwhelming majority are opposed to the Congressional plan of adjustment. Here then we find that a minority, because it haa the control of the legislative department of the ftovernment, proposes to exercise despotic power to accomplish their ends, overruling, in so doing, the will of a maj jrlty of the people of the whole country. Our neighbor, In Its Issue of yesterday, is a little modest in its demands, but by to-mor-row we presume it will be prepared to go the whole figure by accepting-the position of tbe New York Herald, the new leader of radicalism, in full. That we may preserve a record of its progress In favor of centralised power, we quote tbe following extract from Its article headed, "What next, if tbs amendment

fails?” It says:

“ We believe that it would be tbe most Just and politic cour-e for Congress to remove one ground of objection by enacting that tbe excluded States, by ratifying the amendment, shill be entitled to representation in that body. If after that they refuse to accede to the amendment, public sentiment will justify Congress in assuming the work of reconstructioa lor itself, even in tbe root and branch stile foreshadowed by the New York Har-

old.”

Here is a concession that Congress was not Just in demanding from the South the acceptance of the proposed adjustment, when they had no assurance of representation or restoration, even, upon the adoptlen of tbe amendment. It now only advises that concession as • “ most just and politic course,” but if Congress should not remove that objection to tbe adoption of the amendment, ws have no doubt it would justify the “ root and branch style of reconstruction,” which the New York Her-

ald suggests.

There Is but little probability that Congress will modify Its plan of reconstruction by guaranteeing representation to the Southern States in case they accept It. Already It is given out by the radical leaders that the congressional adjustment was entirely too mild, and threats have been made that the President will be Impeached and deposed to remove every obstacle for the accomplishment of the complete sul j'lgation of tbe Southern States, reducing Mn m, In fact, to the condition of territorial vassalag*. It Is also probable that tbe amendment will fall. Here, then, naturally aris-s tbe pertinent Inquiry of tbeyovr-

n> l, ” What next?”

Tbe Nt-w York Herald advises revolutionary measures to acc'iiuplUb the reconstruction of the “ disabled States,” as It terms them. If ihcy will not yield to tbe demands made upon them by a radical Cengress, a body poe-ses-ed with the single idea of perpetuating its party ascendancy, then the necessary physical force must be applied to compel tbe submission of an unwilling people. The history of Puland, of Uungnry, and of Ireland, ie to be re-enacted, for tbe same argument is applied to tbe South that was to those 11 disabled ” nations by their conquerors, “ that It is tbe victor, and not the vanquished, that dictates the treaty of peace.” Tbts is the langu tge of tbe New YorTHeruld, and the Journal responds to tbe sentiment by declaring that If tbe “disabled states ” reject tbe treaty of peace offered them, then “public sentiment will justify Congress In assuming the work of reconstruction, even in the root and branch style foreshadowed ” by the forme paper. Are the people prepared for tbe threatened revolution which, if it occurs, can not but swaep away all tbe old land marks ef tbe Republic, the free Institutions which secured tbe liberty, happiness and the prosperity of tbe people In a degree unparalleled In history, and a free government which was tha beacon of hope to the oppressed of all national This new plan of reconstruction, based upon universal suffrage, placing the ballot in the hands of Ignorant and degraded plantation slaves, Is advocated hy leading papers which have heretofore been conservative, and opposed to the abol tion agitators. That tbe people may be » Vised < f tbe drift which is being attempted fig give to public sentiment, we quote the folio#-* log extract from tbe last Wednesday’s issue Of. tbe New York Herald, in which Is advocated the most extreme measures to accomplish

Southern reconstruction:

Hiuanonouaa, Misa, November IV, In regard to the baarteof the Southern j>ee-

wemen one-half tha American people, and, In persons of color, oue-elghth; thus reducing five out ef every eight adult American cittxen* to permanent political subjection; and so our present State and National Governments, thus limited to three-eighth* of the adult cltlaens, are not In fact republican, even in form; but

no oligarchy ef sex and rase.

Tbe advocates of negro manhood suffrage claim It upon the ground that taxation without representation Is anti repifMlcan and that those who bear tbo burden* of government should have a voice In Its direction. If the argument Is correct, we do not see why the logical conclusion does not favor tbe enfranchisement ol all citizens, regardless of sex or color. Tbe Equal Rights Association doesnot propose any limitations upon tbe privilege of voting. It does not demand cither intelligence or capacity in the voter. Manhood or womanhood, without regard to color, are the only requisite to reach the ballot box. Tbe accompllahed Elizabbth Cady Stanton propose# to walk up to tb« ballot box aide by aide, upon terma of perlest equality, with ber colored sister just liberated from plantation slavery, whose ideas of government and political acience must be ■emewbat confused. Of course a heavy influx of such a clast of voter* will not be likely to add to an intelligent decision of questions of public policy through the agency of the ballot. Lucy Stonx baa probably aa snligbteaefi understanding of the problems of government and It certainly appears like Injustice thatshe should be disfranchised while an ignorant md besotted colored man la permitted; to vote. It Is not probable that tha Introduction of tuch a class of voters would add any security to the “Inalienable dght to liberty and tbe pursuit of happiness,” or tbe extension of suffrage beyond Ite present limitations. Women only unsex themselves when they attempt to move in tbe same sphere and assume the duties of men. They have been created differently, and their dependence and gentleness wins from tbe sterner sex the affection which they covet, and which when reciprocated, Is bappinese. If suffrage should be extended to women it would not change tbe verdict ol tbe ballot box. Now they are represented by tbetr fathers, husbands, brother* and tons, and If enfranchised, tbeir votes would not be otherwlae than la sympathy with those who had previously represented them. Sisters Stonx, and Stanton, and Anthony start out with tbe proposition that “ If liberty and tbe pursuit of happiness are natural and inalienable rights, so is also tbe right of suffrage their only possible secunty.” We will Venture the assertion that the Inalienable rights of liberty and the pursuit of happiness have always been secured to those ladles even without tbe right of suffrage bavlng been extended to them. It would certainly be safe for them to trust tbe guardiansbip and vindication of these rights, as they have ip the past, to the white male voters upon whom they have heretofore leaned for protection. But If it it a “ pursuit of happiness” to those and other strong minded women to agitate the question of female suffrage, we shall be tbe last to deprive them of tbe “ inalienable right,” yet we can not help remarking that their cause Is not very encouraging when tbs Convention of the American Equal Rights Association, with the promise that the great lights should participate in tbe discussions, ooald not command an audience at any time exceeding one hundred and fifty of all races,

sexes and colors.

Happily the great body of American women have no desire to disturb or destroy tbeir domestic happiness by entering an arena for wbtoh they are not fitted by nature, or by education, and we trust they will exercise tbe same good sense In regard to tbe question of female suffrage that haa ever characterised

them.

Perewnnlltlee. Our evening neighbor, the Gazette, takes ua to task because, in an editorial allusion to it. We termed It M Tbe Julian organ,” and ■barges us with bavlng violated tbe professional amenities which we had prefected a desire to cultivate. We assure our somewhat captious cotemporary that we Intended no disrespect to It, or to the distinguished radical who was named. We certainly did not Intend to intimate, la the remotest degree, that It wac “ tied to (he political fortunes of any one man; that it expected to climb into any position of honor or profit by banging on to me skirt of any gentleman’s greatcoat, nor yet to wear bis collar.” With rare exceptions, parties and faetlona have rcpreaentatlvo men. Tbe GaM’tte represents a shade in radicalism more aggressive, positive and advanced than the stately Journal. It coincides very nearly, If not quite, in sentiment with tbe able radical member of Congress Irom the “ Burnt” District. And for that reason we could not classify its position more briefly and comprehensibly than by Ibe terra,” the Julian organ,” but we did not b*ve the remotest idea in so doing of Insinuating that the Gaseite nee tied to that gentleman’s political fortune*, nor wore bis collar. We tender ail due apologies to our neighbor for having wounded its sensibilities by what we must now regard as an unfortunate allusion, although it concedes we were not far from wrong, by making the following admis-

sion:

“Tbe Gaeette is not any man’s organ any farther than one man more than another appears to more nearly represent the views and sentiment* entertained by It.” That’s just what we meant by calling It “ the Julian organ;” no more.

last, when I arrived South, I have nat heard three mca express • with for abothei war, and that* only in connection with the pfcUcy of the radicals, In which they Intimated that In case of a war between tha factions of tbe North, there would bo hopes for the South. As far as I can judge, “ the situation” te accepted as final by tha great body of the people. nine-tenths of whom, one year ago to-day, welcomed the Union In perfect good faith. At that time, and for months afterward, I did not believe that the South could ba kicked inta an-

cals, and It la not to ba disguised that In consequence of the couna of tha latter the Southern people are not aa well disposed now as a year ago: yet, were 1 to analyse public sentiment at tha present moment, I should any: 1. The result of the war ie accepted as final, and tbe Union Is regarded as perpetual by tbe entire population, without ex pacta tion or hope ef change. 2. If the question was submitted to a vote .to-day, 1 believe It would be overwhelmingly Union, and agalaat separation. 3. lu my opinion, another rebellion or war, even under the most favorable circumstance* for succeaa, would not be welcomed or entertained, save by a very few desperate, bad men, whose occupation In peace or war la that of horse stealing. 4. A very few, perhaps, of extreme bitterness, might welcome a war in the .North In which the South should be called to taka a

part.

6. The Southern people would to-day respond to the call of the proper authorities to tight for the Union, the Constitution and the flag; and I prophesy that not long hence the South will constltue tbe loyal section of the Unisn, and will supply tile loyal army in its defense. Tee next civil war will not break out in tbe South. Mark that. Let radicals

take a hint.

7. Tbe South concede* that the war debt for the Union must be paid, and will pay b£ sbare without opposition. None but cr^H headed bigot*, who do not reach half a dotoP In tbe whole South, presume te advocate the payment of the Southern war debt, and they could not obtain a bearing before tha m*•«*•, who, were It submitted to them, would repudiate it by a voice npgmacblDg so sear to unanimity as to require aa affidavit to prove that tbe debt had any frtendaor advocate*.

yet there are such, though many '

the loudest pretensions now are bogus. Both tbe United Statet Senators elect from this State were among the most faithful of the faithful, defying and daring secession to do ite Worst. Mr Alcorn was a member of tbe convention that took Ibia State out, and for hi* defiant attitude was threatened with violence la his seat, but he declared that be could die but once, and never more glorioualy than for bis country and flag.

9. In a speech In Brooklyn, recently. Henry Ward Beecher assumed that the public ware opposed to the education of the freedmea. However it may lie in the North, the South ie unanimously in favor of tbeir edacatloa, 1mprovemeat and elevation. Hi. A* to tbs claim of pav for emancipated slave*, it baa bean mooted by a fsw fanatic*, inn the peopla generally, while they would not rtfUae pay if tendered, ecout the suggestion as so remote and impossible as to be utterly unworthy of thought. There la no design of presenting tbe claim on tbe part of the people at large, who would not give one cent for its prosecution. 11. Slavery could not be re-establlahed by a vote of tbe people. I have beard but one man wish for It. The universal expression is em-

of paUtleal wisdom to deaery thoee tees; to jodgn wUck of them will follow of themseivea, and which require the Intervention of government; to teWfir heating drum* and clattering kettles agrf psna to bring the sun out of an eclipse, when the celestial mottoas win aereanly deliver it without such obetxeperoui aid. Pt Incllns to think that if the negro luffing* question could bn fairly opened, and planed in ite true light, the poUtical interest u It would rapidly evaporate. The zeal of Ite advocate« and the stiffness at Ua opponent* would probably give way to the calmer intertot which, In eaujghtened mind*, it will long continue to have aa a moral, social and ethnological question. At any rate, if we could fUMM what would bo the natural train of unforced consequences, both parties might judge bow far mterfsrenee moat prove needlew on the one hand, and resistance unavailing on the other. Let us suppose the Southern Senators and Representative* were freely admitted without conditions, and that tha North should forboar

stacle bad been removed to their mendingtheir broken fortunes. All the beat energies of the best das* ot Southern minds would be bent in that direction. Capital, the great want of all new countries, the great want of all bankrupt countries—and the South la undeveloped and bankrupt—would readily flow in under the prospect of an assured tranquility and in rellanee upon the security that could bo given by Southern landholders after the complete restoration of titles by a general amnesty. The office of capital te to set labor In motion. The returns of capital can come in no other way than through the employment of labor. It te only by returning the products of labor, or what the products of labor sell for, Into the hands of Investors that they get back tbetr capital and a profit on It. Now, It te obvious that a brisk demand for labor, and anxiety and competition on tha part of employers to secure as much aa they need In their enterprises, would be the beat conceivable condition of things for the freedmen, who, totally destitute at the outset, must find the beginning of competence la what they can aavaout

After one or two good harvests, they will have the mean* of emigrating to any part of the South, or any part of the country. With this ability, they

treatment. If they are unjustly dealt by in

the Soutb, they will emigrate to tbe bospita-

ble West. If one Southern State hold* out advantage! denied to them in tbe others, they will throng te that State. If (he Southern States do not, on a uniform system, bestow on them justice and kindness, the freedmen will either flee from the South, at the Irish hhvt forsaken Ireland, or a few enlightened Southern States will keep tkem back by bidding against the West for the monopoly of their labor. Southern lapd te aa worthU-- ns tb* sanda of Sahara without labor to ii,.u .ate it; and tbe instinct of seif preservation will compel even the most illiberal Southern State to grant the same advantages which a day’s ride in tbe cars will enable the negroes to enjoy

elsewhere.

A people so situated cannot be oppressed. Whenever they set any value oa the elective franeblee,they will be able to command It. Tbe same motives tbat induced our Western State* to make voters of unnaturalized alien* will operate with full force in the Soutb, as soon aa that section can command capital to rebuild lu shattered prospertto. Greenback* may be scattered over the Sooth; but greenbacks can plant and pick no eotton, can construct no railroads to warehouses, open and work no mines, premM sugar cane, gather no rice. All that money can «* 1s to set In operation the human henda, white or black, by which these operations an performed. To release Southern property by an amnesty, so that its owners can give security for loans; to tranquillze the country by mtoration; to pour capital Into tha South aa teeaoty yean ago it was poured Into tbe West; this is the true way to benefit tha aegm. Ola Wagee will then be ee high that he wffi be oin-the sure road to Independence. The impose!bity of either sparing or replacing him, In such a humming hive of industry as the South will then become, will secure for him every privilege and fran-

if tbe ebvioua probabilities which we have

Next to tbe political contest, ths topic ot conversation in our newspaper offices is the n moval or resignation of D. H. Craig from the management of the Associated Press. Tbe Associated Press, your readers will understand, is controlled exclusively by the New York papers, and tbe news Is sold by them to other journals tbrougb the country. There are some interesting Incidents connected with its origin. Long years ago, before the days of telegraphy, tbe Sun and Herald were the two great competing papers lu tb* metropolis. The Atm was started by one Mr. Day, and soon fell into tbe hands of Moses Y. Beach, who now lives In wealthy retirement at Wallingford, Connecticut. Mr. Beach exhibited great enterprise in tbe management of the Aim, procuring, among other newspaper facilities, a flock of carrier pigeons, trained in England. By the aid of these pigeons Mr. Beach was enabled to outstrip all competitor! and to astonish tbe public. They at first were kept at Sandy Hook, Halifax, and tbe poinu on ths eoaet, to bring the foreign news te New York. For example, a man In a amailyawl would Intarropf s vessel a few miles out from Halifax, and having, obtained tbe news, would write it out atid let tree nptgeon, which would bring it hither. In time these pigeon* were also statinmed at Boston, Pbitsdeiphte, Baltimore and Washington. By publishing a speech of Daniel Webster a few hours after Ha delivery at Boston, the Aim .made a world wide reputation tor itself aad increaaed 1st circulation four fold. Tbe Mexican war

t. O'

ernment kept up communication but once a month. After tbe conflict began Mosea Beach dispatched two of his son* to this remote re-

Tbe Administration thanked Mr. Beach in tbe warmest manner for tbe news thus obtained. His competitors at length, after trying in vainfor some time, discovered the manner In which

the Aun ffot ahead of them. Tb

Thereupon Ben-

nett, of the Herald, Ualleck, of the Journal of Commerce, and one or two others, called upon tbe Aun proprietor and requested tho privilege of sharing in the advantages and

and requested _ ad

profits of the mule express. The req ing refused, they told him they should start an express of tbeir own. He then acceded to the request, and this was the origin of Ih* Associated Press, which, a few year* later, built Uw telegraphic line to Cape Race, pur-
