For tho AdY1rtis.r.

Mr.. ED1ron In tho last issue Of your excel
lent paper, you repeat the announcement of the
Secretary of State Of the United States, that the
amendment Of the Constitution sbolishing sla-
very, proposed BY the Federal Congress, has been
ratified by three. .fourths Of the States, and has,
therefore, become part OF the fundamental law
of the Union. Now, sir, if South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama and the other Southern States,
which have ratified this amendment and ,choae
ratification Sc regarded by ihe F. 'eral authoritie'
a. nsce,ary'to give it oitaiity, BIO not S.ates OF
the Union, how can tho amendment be incorpo-
rated into the Constitution and be obligatory upon
all tho States, both North and South Tho abo-
lition of slavery within their respective limits
by the aeceded States may be insisted upon as an
indispensable prerequisite to re-ndmission into
the Union. But, if they be not in the Union,
their ratification is nullity, and the amendment
is not binding. They have no righ. to ratify or
reject the amendment. ~ BOB SHORT:

THADpEUs STEVENS AND THE REPUBLICAN
PARrY-lt is plain from indications that
lave reached US, that from some cause the
Republican party of the North is not yet pre-
pared to follow the lead Of Thaddous Stevens
in his onslaught upon the reconstruction pol
icy Of President Johnson. We notice that
not a single leading journal Of Stevens party
is willing to give anything like an unqualified
endorsement to his savage speech OF Monday
week. On the contrary, the New York Tri-
bune, the New York Times, the Philadelphia
Press; the Washington: Chronicle. aud the
waahingtoH National Republican, all express
disgust dorm hisyioleHt views. and show Dig
position to support theapoiey Of the Presi-
dent. The immense patronage vested in the
Executive is the wedge that has 'occasioned
tkiS rather 5sriid6us spft amongst the Radicals.
