Intentions of the Southerners.

l think there is not doubt that the
Southern leaders intend to obtain recop.
milton of their debt by Congress, and, il
they can't have slavery, they will insist on
something very much like it. The black
race must be kept under the heel of the
white, they believe, and they will carry
ou! their ideas if they car. AS under.

hold that the North mus! not interfere in
this great contest between the races. We
may publish tracts and deliver lectures,
but, if the Southern States choose to enact
barbarous laws against the black race
which we have emancipated, we cannot in.
terfere. II this is really true, then we
may find that the war was most foolish
expenditure Of blood and money, for there
is no constitutional way to secure the
fruits Of victory, Suppose it to be true
that the Southern leaders expect to &C

The Clerical Oath in Missouri

The requirement OF the new State Con.
atitution Of Missouri that clergymen shall
take the oath OF loyalty before continuing
their clerical functions, drew out a pro.
test from Archbishop Kenrick, Of the
komlsh church, which, strangely enough,
has been followed by the refusal Of sew.
eral Protestant denominations to acquisce
in the demand OF the law. Considering
the history Of Missouri during the last
four years-the State rent 5y hostile fac.
tons, now loyalists, now dislcyalists up
permost, and very large proportion of
the clergy notorious y siding with the lat.
ter-the Convention could scarcely have
done less than impose test OF fidelity on
ecclesiastical as well as on civil officers.
We DO not believe the really loyal clergy
find anything in this oath to cause them a
scruple OF conscience. That the New
York Observer should make mouths at it
does not shake our conviction. The op-
position which pervades several denomin-
ations is described by the ST. Louis DEM
ocrat as proceeding from "Conference
of Rebel chdplaihs recently held in Cen :
tenary Church in this city, and the re-
bellious manifestations OF other clerical
representatives" The same paper adds:
$50 far as our information goes. the col.
ored clergyman of the State, both in and
out OF st. Louis. have without exception
taken the oath of loyalty required by the
new Constitution" They do not seem
to think it an insult or outrage to be asked
to affirm by an oath loyalty which no
man ever doubted. 1t is the white
preachers, whose loyalty in SO many cases
is doubtful, that detect the insult, snd re.

offers them the alternative of resigning

The President and the Radicals.

The following important Washington
dispatch is published in the Cincinnati
Gazette of yesterday morning:
A few days ago distinguished New
England Senator, noted for his planness
of speech. told President Johnson that il
was published and extensively believed
that he, the President, intended in his fu.
turs pelicy to ignore the radical element,
and asked If such was the case. Mr..
Johnson, in reply, declared that he never,
at any time, had even intimated that he
intended to cut the radicals; that he al.
lowed the largest latitude Of opinion on
the right Of the negro to vote; that all he
had done or was doing, towards the reor.
ganization OF the South, was an expert
ment that might be successful and might
not; and, il unsuccessful, that no one
would be more ready 10 alter his course
than he would be: that OF one thing the
radicals and all others might be satisfied,
that the freedmen Of the South should
be fully protected in their freedom and
rights. .'.- ~.

A Word for the Negro.

II is tho fashion of tho times to speak
contemptuous'y of the Negro, and indulge
in gross sarcasm at his expense. Wo saw
assembled here in the FREQ Northern State
OF Ohio, few days ago, a Convention rep.
resentng great political party striving to
regain its lost ascendenoy, whose chief mer-
It, judging from their own showing, consists
in the assumed fact that they belonged to a
race superior to the Negro. And they ap-
peal to tho vulgarity of every man con.
scious Of the unction of such superiority, to
aid them in climbing the ladder of their am
bition, and especially no prevent the Negro
from becoming their equal. This, thoug b
not very lofty ambition, Is nevertheless
worry precious to their self.iove, and a rad.
cal feature of their democracy. To thi.
strife for excellence between the Democra,
and the Negro wO do not propose to become

for improvement, in eithor class, aud wish
both of them success in their enterprise, so
