The New Scheme to Destroy the Repub-
iican Party Suffrage and Amnesty.

The new scheme of adopting negro
suffrage, proposed by the Chicago Times,
is of no Importance on account of the
psper, but like the vane of weather
cock, is significant of the current wind
of doctrine. We have never doubted
that the rebel States Tin the South
would concede negro suffrage if it would
restore their power. nor ever doubted
that the Democratic party would adopt
it for the same reason. We are opposed
to restoring either to power by any ex-
traordinary means, and are, therefore,
opposed to forcing negro suffrage on the
South, when the only effect of it will be
TO increase the number Of their Represensa
tires and furnish ner material for tie play
of demagogues. We say force it, for if it
comes as a concession of the Southern
States themselves, AID under the hereto
fore conceded right Of all States to de-
fine their own right of suffrage, we have
neither the constitutional nor the moral
right to object, nor would we desire TO,
for it would be another concession to the
equality of the human race before the
law, with Us fundamental principle
But if this measure is ever proposed by
the President or adopted by the Demo
cratic party, it will be from no motive Of
humanity or regard to human rights, but
only for the purpose Of regaining power.
The scheme is dangerous, which the willy
politicians who propose it know; chiefly,
because there is section of the Repub-
lican party urging what they call ''ans-
nesty and fmportsal snfragen But what
il to be the effect Of it? Itis to destroy
