Negro SuGra &c.

Recent intelligence from Washington
CITY reveals the fact that the radical dis
urionists Save so far regarded the sen
timent of the people as to abandon their
negro suffrage scheme in the District OF
Columbia. The act passed by the House
Of Representatives has been hanging lire
in the Senate q long time Possibly the
certainty of its being vetoed by the
President may have had some influence
in delaying action upon the bill, but the
indignation which the measure excited
among the people has doubtless been the
main cause of its abandonment. The
radical party fears to go before the PEG
pie upon the plain negro suffrage Issue,
bat it has shown its hand too plainly to
now shirk the consequences of the act.
The House of Representatives has placed
itself plainly upon the record, and the
Senate has only refused to commit itself
ia the same way from motives o! policy.
not from any repuguance to the princi-
pie involved The Republican party
stands pledged to accept the issue of ne
gro suffrage and cannot avoid it. The
whole legislation Of the party has been
looking to that end no bill in Congress
has found favor in the eyes of the dem
inant faction that was not intended for
+bo haneGt Or the NEGRO race. and. hay
