upon the gloomy side of the subject
but if the Radicals succeed the South
will have to pass through still more
fearful ordeal than that to which she
has been and is still subjected.
That their are good substantial
grounds for hope is apparent from
the trepidation which has alread y
shown itself in the tanks of the
Abolitionists. They are evident y
bewildered by the action ofthe Presi
dent in the removal of the Abolition
Collector and Surveyor of the Port
of New York, and the announcement
that other removals are about to, or
will soon take place. Already the
party shows signs of rapid decay
There is an irreconcileable feud be-
tween IhrIlow Weed and Horace
Greedy which is likely to create a
serious division in the ranks. Then
we have in addition to this the
difference among the leaders upon
the question Of negro suffrage, which
has grown into n very nice little
quarrel, and which ill materially
interfere With their prospects of sue
cess. President johnson knows all
tn 5, and it is not at all probable that
he will use lis influence to reconcile
the factions, particularly when it is
remembered that he has already taken
lbs stand upon the subject. In a
word, we believe il is his design to
be the next Presidential candidate of
the Democratic panty, and he knows
well that the restoration of the South
to all IT. rights within tie [ Mon is
essential to his success. His pur
pose then is evidently TO hasten tie
work Of restoration, by removing ali
the obstacles that lie in the way, and
which tie Radicals are doing all they
can to increase. Until the army i
reduced to peaceful footing it will
be impossible to fully accomplish this
design, and i. is Therefore peculiarly
gratifying to learn that the muster
ilsg out Of the troops is progressing
with great rapidity. The announce
inent, which has been made lpor
authority, that the negro troops are
to be dispensed with is in itself do
ing great deal towards restoring
the confidence Ct the ,)ecTle II the
policy of the Chief Magistrate-a
confidence which was so terribly
shaken by recent despotic acts of the
Administration.

well as for the South itself, the true
course is to cooperate with every
