The Election and its Session.

In sIeaking Of the election a CO.
Temporary ftly remarks: Had the
Observation-Disclosures party succeed
ed, civil war was inevitable. IL
would have been tits or submis-
sion on the part Of Congress to the
dictation Of Andrew Johnson, and the
latter alternative was Of course out OF
the question. The President had
frequently announced his determine.
ton to force the rebel Congressman
into their seats in tho event Of gain
Of twenty or thirty Copperheods IN
the October and November elections.
But instead Of these gains there will
bo loss on the Presidents side, aud
the Union majority in the 10th Con-
grcss will be stronger than it is in
the 39th. Therefore John son =
scheme is already failure, aud the
danger Of civil war has disappeared
The loyal people have rendered Con
gross all.poworfol, and placed the
President in position where he must
either FIJI his Office in accordance with
the letter aud spirit Of Tie Copstitu-
tion, or be removed by impeachment.
Ho viii, wo have NO doubt, behave
himself
The Southern people will also find
in the result of the elections, lesson
that they will profit by. The people
of the North who put down the ro-
bollion and saved the Government,
are determined that tie latter shall
be administered by loyal men; aud
that the terms proposed by Congress
shall be accepted. This is the clear
meaning Of the Union victories. The
People have no confidence in tho
Democratic party or in Andrew
johnson. Both are politically dead,
and may be considered by tho South
us powerless. They viii undoubtcd-
ly, be so treated. Therefore, IL is our
belief tina. the Southern people will
accept the Congressional plan Of re-
construction, and predict that before
the close of tho second session of the
Thirty'ninth Congress, the Southern
States will have adopted the constitu'
tional amendment, and be represent
ed in the national Legislature by men
who can take the prescribed OATH
Already leading papers and promi-
nent men at>ihe South are advocating
this course as not only necessary but
wise. Whom this shall be done IL
good (dih the WORK Of recoustruc.
tion will bo complete, Otherwise
different and more severe terms may
be proposed aud insisted upon, One
thing is co, taiu--the North has put
its foot down, and if il shall be raised
il will be to take forward not a
backward step.

REHABILITATION.
A Contrast.

The scene at the grave OF Lincoln
when twas surrounded by the South
ern Loyalistsi q. few days since, was
in striking and noble contrast with
the picture presented by Mr.. John.

count Of the ceremonies at the grave
Of Lincoln closes with this papa

Registry Law.

There is no doubt, but that, at the
recent election, many illegal votes
we're cast, by non-rcsidents, renegade
from the draft, &c. We hope that
our Legislature will pass law next
winter for tho proper registry Of all
legal voters, and for the protection
Of this sacred right against men, es

belliOn. Now that they are disfan
