have succeeded in overcoming the deter
mination ofthe South to continue the struo-
gle until independence was achieved:
The South is not now fighting against
the Union. This is not offered her. On
the contrary, she is assured by the highest
officers of our government that she will
not be permitted to return to the Union.
Her armies are in the field contending
against the disintegration other States and
their reduction to Territories. against the
plundcr of her people, under the confsca
tlon law, against the subverson of her en-
tire social and industrial system under the
decree of emancipation; against the afro
cious purposes, one and all, avowed in the
letterof Solicitor Whiting and dindorscdby
the entire abolition press
What absurdity is it to assert that it will
be time enough to discuss the terms of re-
construction when the South signifies her
willingness to submit. To what is submis-
sion demanded? Is it not to the terms
now offered? Is the war to be prosecuted
until she makes known her submission to
these! But, part of the administration
press assumes that these will not be enforced
after she submits What authority has it
for any such assumption when the admin
lstratlon asserts that they shall be enforced.
Will the insurgent States rely upon as
sumptions of the conservative portion of
the administration party, which are contra
dlcted by the radicalwing, by far the larger,
and by the President and Cabinet? The
success of the conservatives thus far in
controlling the administration has not been
so eminent as to justify the presumption
that they will dictate its policies hereafter.
We have every reason to believe that a
sentence from Sumner on the ''rights''of
humanity" will be more needed by the
Administration than would the best con-
slldered arguments Of Thurlow Weed and
his partisans upon the most obvious and
just policies.
There is very simple and very easy
method of asscrtaining the willingness of
the South to return to the Union. Offer
1t the Union. and if it rejects the offer,
there will he 10 need of a conscription to
recruit the exhausted ranks of our armies.

the offer. While 1t refuses to do so. a
fraction of the press of its party cannot as
sumo that its intentions are directly oppo-
site to its declarations-Chicago Times.

for contempt he would arrest him and send
him to the guard-house, and would keep
him there He farther stated that '.he

Enormous Fraud i'm the Enroll
ment Of Chicago.

The Chicago Times, i'll commenting up
on the gross frauds perpetrated in the en-
rollment of Chicago, says:
The disclosures of the report. which We
print elsewhere, Of the Subcommittee of
the Conscripti War Fund Committee
the latter being special committee of the
Common Council-will strike the people of
Chicago with surprise and astonlshmcnt.-
The highest number Of votes ever polled
in this city was twenty thousand, and the
board of enrolment have h-ciyhtthons-
and names enrolled for the draft. These
names purport to be of persons between the
a res OF twenty and forty-fivc, those OF all
persons above the latter age being cxclud-
ed. OF course the number of voters above
the ages of forty-fivc is greater than the
number OF persons between the ages OF
twenty and twcnty-one, and fully equal to
the latter class and the negroes liable to
enrolment. combined. There is. then 4
clear excess of eight thousand names on
the enrolment books.
This excess is fraudulent The board OF
enrolment could not deny to the municipal
subcommittee that it was fraudulent; and
their treatment of the committce-their re-
fusal to open the enrolment lists to inspcc-
tion-:hcir prcvarications and unsatisfac-
tory explanations virtual confessions
of fraud and imposition.
Itequals in abominatlon any of the New
York frauds 1t is so enormous that w
are amazed that it should have been perpe
trated. \ fraud of two or three thousanc
names might have passed, but this hug,
fraud of eight thousand names arrests TIN,
public attention and will arouse the publ,
indignation to a high pitch.
1t must be corrected. The people o
Chicago will not submit to it. They will
not submit to have their lives thus trifet
with by TITO Of irresponsible agents, tw,
of whom are apparently capable of any in
fanny. Application will to-day be made "a
Washington by the municipal authoritic
for correction, and We shall believe, unit
it appears otherwise, that the application
will succeed
1t is by such frauds and outrages tha
the patriotism of the people is made tn,
sport of designing knaves, and the lives o
the people lost or won in stuffed lotter
wheels. Our own people can now under
stand the provocation of the riot in New
York Let the authorities at Washing
ton right the shameless wrong of thei
agents here, and preserve the peace of Chi
