"NIGGER HEADS. The New York
Herald calls Sumner, Wendell Phillips,
Thaddeus Stevens, Butler, Chase and that
school of politicians to which the Sacra-

belong, "Nigger Heads" The name is
good and appropriate and ought always
to be applied to the men and party who
think more of the black race than they
do Of the white.

DISSENTING THE RADICALs.-The more
honest and the shrewd ones among the
Republicans are abandoning the extreme
black schemes, and joining the Presidents
party. Weed, Raymond and Forney, the
leaders Of the conservative wing Of the
Republican party, are not disposed to fol.
low the Radicals in their treacherous and
satanic course against the South. They
know that the masses will not sustain the
Radicals. They see both the setting Of
the current and the course which patriot.
ism and common sense point out as the
right one. The well informed Washing
ton correspondent of the Philadelphia
Ledger reports the progress in this direc.
tion. He writes:
"Included among the cordial endorsers Of
the Presidents policy 10 a majority of the best
Republicans in the land. The truth is, the
more honorable and Constitution, loving among
the Republicans are completely disgusted With
this eternal agitating and opposition TO wise
measures Of restoration, and it has been the
very thing that has driven them from farther
associations with the extremists. Rest assured
the President is all right. He has declared
that the South can be trusted, and firm as
rock will stand 10 his position. To the appeal
or suggestion from his opponents that the
government bad better be thinking OF Organ
izing instead of 6isbsnding, the President has,
as l am told, replied by ordering the War De.
pArtmentto reduce the army Immediately to q
peace footing, which means, presume. an ar
my similar IN numbers to the one prior to the
war. This is the most important conclusion,
apd will naturally barb anew, with hate and
bitterness, the arrows of the opposition"
