The RUMP CANDIDATE FOR GOvERN0R.-The
last purpose Of the rump city government to
hold on to the spoils Is to attempt to elect
their candidate for Governor upon the sup
posed fusion of the conservative republicans
and democrats. In this they will find them
selves mistaken. The conservative republi-
cans are all backing out, so that Hoffman will
only have the rump Of old Tammany to carry
him out Of the city, which it may do with thirty
or forty thousand majority. But this will be
finally buried under an avalanche Of fifty
thousand majority against him in other parts
of the State.

upon an early restoration. Apart from . few
violent radicals there is no disposition among
the Northern people to persecute them. But
there is general feeling-and the elections
show it-that 1t is necessary to have ample Sc
curity for the future, just such security as the
constitutional amendment would give. The
South might not get back for long time with
out that, and we know not what serious conse-
quences might follow. If the Southerners are
not foolish, we might say insane, they win at
once and in every State adopt the constitu-
tional amendment. Get into Congress, get re-
stored by all means, we say, and leave the
rest to the future. They will then have some
power over their own destiny; now they have
none Resistance is useless and will only put
them in worse position. If they act at once
they may see their representatives in Congress
before the next session will expire.
The TRICKs OF OUR MODERN JAcoBINs.-The
violent and destructive Jacobin faction, COM
posed of such men as Thad Stevens, Ben
Wade, Chandler of Michigan, Wendell Phillips,
ParsOn Brownlow, Jack Hamilton and others,
Ore singing peans over the republican sue
cesses at the late elections and at the prospect
Of carrying the great Central states.alThey are
calculating upon making great deal of CAPT
tai out Of this when Congress meets to push
through their vindictive measures of proscrip-
ton and confscation. They are bold enough
for anything and will have the audacity to
claim the elections as an endorsement of their
radical policy. This is the trick they are pre-
pairing to play, just as Thad Stevens attempted
to carry Congress with him in his extreme
measures at the commencement OF the last SEES
sion. Should the elections yet to take place
60 for the republicans by an overwhelming
vote, as they have gone in Vermont and
Maine, it is quite likely that Stevens and
the other Jacobins will endeavor to
inaugurate reign Of prescription and
terror. But they will fail in this, as Stevens
failed last session. There will be conserve
tive majority Of republicans, as there was
then, to keep these destructives in check. The
people Of the Northern States have no sympathy
with these frebrands. The mass Of our citizens
are conservative, are not vindictive toward
the Southerners, do not wish to trample on the
PROSTATE, and only desire guarantees of secu.
rity for the future. The Jacobin radicals are a
miserable minority, and although they may
buster and try their old tricks to carry the
republican party with them, the moderate and
conservative majority will overwhelm them
With the adoption Of the constitutional amend
ment the people Of the North would feel that
they had obtained security for the future, and
would be satisfied. That would effectually put
stop to the vengeance and destructive
schemes Of the Jacobina We have no fear
that these bloody minded and dangerous mon
win be permitted to have their way. The tri-
umph of the republican party viii be no
triumph for them, for the popular sentiment
Of the country revolb at their extreme
measures.

each house Of the constitutional amendment
embracing the ultimatum Of Congress for the
restoration OF the excluded Southern States
this conflict between President and Congress
should have ended. The President should
have accepted the amendment az measure
constitutionally completed 30 far as Congress
was concerned. He SO recognized 1t in SUBJ
hitting 1t to the States through the Secretary
Of State, 30 that in carrying before The
people the question between his policy and
the policy Of Congress IL was simply upon the
expediency Of this amendment II Is not .
Jacobin measurc-the Objectionable radical
section originally put In was stricken out, and
the amendment was passed without It, against
the remonstrances Of such radical leaders Is
Stevens and Sumner.
Subsequent events have shown that the
President made . mistake In not accepting
this amendment 80 passed, - an end Of his
conflict with Congress. Unfortunately, too, In
stead Of closing, be has still further widened
the breach in the speeches Of his late pilgrim
age 10 Chicago, in honor Of the memory Of .
man whom neither monuments nor Prcsiden-
tial pilgrimagcs can raise above the calibre Of
scheming and disappointed politician. In
this excursion the Presidents dsnunciations OF
Congress have furnished plausible excuses for
more violent denunciations against himself by
radical orators and organs over the length
and breadth Of the land, TO the scandal Of our
popular System OF government abroad and 10
the modification Of the great body Of the
American people Of all parties.
Surely We have had enough Of this. A be-
tween the President and Congress the Ratchet
ought to be buried, aud no better basis Of .
treaty Of peace can be devised than this con-
stitutional amendment Let the President
then, use his influence South In securing the
immediate ratification Of this amendment, and
with the restoration on this platform Of the
Southern States he will secure . decisive VIC
tory over the radicals In securing the balance
Of power In Congress. His opportunity end
his advantages In This direction cannot bs cx-
aggerased, while in pursuing the opposite
course he must inevitably fail.

of the first, like the lance Of the
savage, is always pointed and always I
poisoned. His head is turned by the !
memory of q wrong, and no coal,
'shissing hot from hell" ever burned
with more deadly gleam or intense
vitality than does his classic ire. Pre-
tending to Christianity, he finds q
''higher law" than that of the Meek
and Lowly One, who, when he was
reviled, revilcd not again, and who
said to his followers "Love your
enemies!' There is wicked, venge-
full "method in his Madness" which
shows itself like skeleton frame be-
meath the thin cloak of Phariseical
religion and philanthropy which he
wears for show. He would become
I all things unto all men, that he might
humiliate the South.
His compeer and kindred spirit, the
Boanerges aforesaid, is rougher,
sterner spirit, who mocks at his own
grey hairs, and forgets the humilia-
ton and charity which they should
suggest He is n forger Of thunder
bolts, and if money could be made
by the operation, he would take con-
tract to furnish the Internal realms
with fuel. Shylock never mourned
his lost ducats and jewels as he
mourned his losses by a Confederate
raid, and never craved the forfeit
1 pound of flesh as he Graves the con-
fiscation of Southern property and
the wholesale hanging Of Southern
citizens. Such men are morally and
politically mad. Insane asylums
should receive them.
AL this bitterness Of spirit is alike
wicked and impolitic. Ia one sec
ton it |'wrings into the raw" and in
another acts as an annoying irritant
to the body polite If the whole
country is to remain one and inli-
visible, We might as we'll settle our
selves down at once into harmony
and good fellowship, and endeavor to
bring about "a more perfect Union. >
A house divided against itself cannot
stand. The House of the American
Union is too sacred to be imperilled
by extremists, no matter i'll what
guise they may present themselves
That it ''shall be preserved" CLEANS
out in characters Of living light ovel
, the whole 1ace OF the sky. Ae
! stars have said it, and the oraculal
and prophetic spirits Of the fathers o
the republic confirm the shining
sibyls.
| In this connection, we may state
that the deluge of extreme commnni
, cations which are forced on our atten
t ton has become exceedingly annoy
, ing. The Times is independent, bu
: it is consistent in its independence
: and conservative in it's tendency
