1t is not to be wondered at, considering

SOUTHERN REPREsENTATIoN.-R the Southern
States should all enfranchise their blacks, with q
view to increasing their representation under the
proposed Constitutional Amendment, the black
voters in two Of the States would have o majority
over the whites; that is in Mississippi, where the
majority would be 15,s6s, and in South Carolina,
where it would be II, ,764. The black voters would
be sufficient to give any party majority in seve-
raj other States, as in Louisiana and Alabama. If
the South will not enfranchise the Negroes It's rep-
esentation will be reduced from seyenty-Hve,' the

A You've EDIrOR-We see it stated
that Mr. John Russell Young has become
the managing editor OF the New York
Tribune. Mr. Young is but twenty-six
years old, but is not inexperienced in the
business. At the age of twenty-one he
became chief editor Of the Philadelphia
Press-John W. Forney's paper. Mr..
Young succeeds Mr.. Sidney Howard Gay
on the Tribune, who has held that place
since the resignation of Mr.. Charles A.
Dana, in 1861. Many readers of the
Tribune associate it exclusively with Mr..
Greeleys name, and it seems little odd
to have him supervised by boy, as Mr..
Young must appear to be.
