New York Herald on Reconstruction.

New York, Nov 90 The Herald
OF this morning argues at length that
the ratification of the amendments
by the States in the Union is ample
and sufficient to give them force and
effect. In other words the recovered
States and Territories are subject to
the States that remained true to the
Union, and legally have no voice in
settling the terms Of reconstruction.
1t says: j" Diyestod Of petty teehical-
tiles, quirks and bubbles, it is APP
parent that three 1ourths of the States
now represented in Congress, are
competent to make the pending Con
sututional amendment part and par
eel OF the Constitution, the supreme
law, being alike to the cutsido and
inside States and Territories. This
is the conclusion which we under
stand will be acted upon by Congress,
when tWenty.ono of the twenty six
States represented in Congress shall
have ratified tue amendment. The
Secretary Of State will be required
By an act of Congress, il necessary,
to proclaim the ratification complete;
then, while the ratification may be
held as the condition Of Southern
representation, the amendment con.
summated, and still be binding upon
them as the supreme law of the land
and Congress may enforce it from
Virginia to Texas by the appropriate
legislation, as in tho Territories
lhis il the solution which awaits the
excluded States. tits a solution per
icetly consistent with the rights and
powers assumed by the loyal States
in suppressing the rebellion Of the
late 50 called Confederate States, and
with all The legislation Of Congress,
since the first bombardment Of Fort
Sumter. The only question, there
fore, remaining to the excluded
States, is whether they will make
virtue Of necessity, and come for
ward to the ratification in order to
participate in the Presidential contest
OF 1868, or remain outside to be sub
ject to the terms Of the amendments
by the action Of the loyal States Of
Congress-"
The Times yesterday exhibited un-
mistakable indications Of taking the
same position.

road, IN August, 1865, the work has

made Incumbent upon the company

the construction, and so far the
greater portion has come from Penn.
