The radical members of the approaching

that they have boldly proclaimed their
views and intentions, aud thrown down
the gage Of battle This task was intrust-
ed by them to Mr.. Coiax, and was ably
performed by tina, gentleman in his recent
speech. That speech is understood by the
president as being an open defiance to him;
and as equivalent as saw ~. This is our

and such conditions will be impose upon
those Of them that present themselves as
will secure their exclusion during the
whole Of the session. The southern states
will thus be kept cut OF the union. The
representatives Of the northern states will
then proceed to legislate for the southern
states, and, under the operation Of the
constitutional amendment @. without it.
will pass laws designed to keep the south
without representation In congress for
thirty years to come.

for which they have toiled, with unweary>
ing interest from the first We should
| think that the people might now at least
see the truth Of the charges made by the
democracy against these men and their
reckless co-adjutors, the leaders Of the
republican party. But the most iniqui-
tous part Of the radical tactics, and that
without which perhaps they never could
have succeeded, consisted in falsely chars-
ny democrats with desire to dissolve The
union while they were themselves bending
all their energies TO the accomplishment of
that end. While they were steadily plo,.
ting treason and dlsunion they were at the
same time engaged in imprisoning demo-
Gratis whom they falsely alleged were in IA
vor of the same thing. They boldly charged
others with their own crimes. and then
paid pimps and tools to subs antiate the
charges before military courts, ordered
to try and organized to convict" This
they did to turn attention from themselves
until such time as they could so debauch
| The public mind as to render it safe for
them to avow their own infamy That

Permanent Exclusion.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Express writes:
The radicals are taking courage from
the folly Of the Southern ultras, and now
begin to talk openly of Pernaonent er'
clusion of the South from all participation
in the government of the country. This
is the an of Thad. Stevens, and those
who troop under his dirty flag. Unless
the pres dent shall prove as firm as rock
there is great danger that all our efforts
for the preservation of the Union will have
been in vain Thus far he has behaved
admirably. 1t remains to be seen how he
will conduct himself under fre'--with the
batteries of New England in full blast
against his devoted head. In conversation
he does not hesita to express hts unquai-
flied condemnation of the Northern lad
