rebel debts and obligations. But why did he
require the ratification OF that amendment ?
Because without it by three-fourths of the
States the abolition Of slavery remained SUBJ
ject to the will OF the several States, So now,
when the question has been raised by North
ern democratic journals of the unconstitu-
tionality of the present Congress, some further
necessary by the Union party OF the war
interested in the validity of the national cur
rency and the cash value of our national
securities. Hence the increasing strength
among the Northern people of this restoration
plan Of Congress, which seeks to make the
ton of all rebel debts and of all claims for
emanoipated slaves part Of the supreme law
Of the land, beyond the reach OF any Congress
and any political party which future events
may bring into power.
The Northern democracy HAYS prossssed
their adhesion to the obligations Of the national
war debt and the reputation Of the debts Of
the rebellion; but while the men among them
who proclaimed the war for the Union uncon-
stitutional, unholy and unjust remain as the
managers, oracles and leading candidates of
the party, all these recent professions will be
accepted by the masses OF the people who
carried the country through the war as false
pretences and electioneering tricks. Against
the war record Of such men, for instance, as
Pillsbury, defeated the other day in Maine, and
of Hester Clymer, whose manifest destiny is a
similar defeat in Pennsylvania, their present
professions 60 for nothing. So it is apparent
from past and passing events that the restora-
Union party of the war, will sweep the North
against the old opposition Of the peace party
of the war. The new wine Of restoration can
not be put into the old bottles Of tho Chicago
Peace-at-any-price Convention, any more than
it can be put into the broken radical crockery
of sOld Thad Stevens"
The sooner therefore the responsible white
people of the Southern States adapt themselves
to the predominant public sentiment Of tue
North, in the acceptance Of this restoration
ultimatum Of Congress, the better it will be for
them. Their political and business interests,
1neu poHlcal anu boCiitl security, All invite
them to the ratification Of this restoration
amendment without further loss Of time. They
have the choice left open to them of giving or
denying the blacks vote in their elections.
Each State is left free to make its election of
negro suffrage and negro representation or the
sacrifice of the one with the denial of the other
The rule will apply to all the States-to New
York as well as South Carolina-and to every
restriction in all upon the test of universal suf
frage, whether applied to white or black men.
In this and in its other provisions this amend
ment will be sustained by the North, and if the
Southern States in good faith accepted it sub
stantially from President johnson, why should
they hesitate to fix it in the federal constitu-
ton?

The RADICAL PLAN Nor THE PLAN ADOPTED

adopted by Congress proposes only that certain

to the several States, whereas the radical ultima
tum Is universal suffrage, and at once, right or
wrong, negroes and all. The plan adopted BY
Congress was carried by the conservatives Of
the dominant party, and 1t will be carried by
the conservative masses of the North, because
it is fair and just and is nothing more than the
fixing in the constitution of the Presidents plan
and his recommendations.

The Union Party Of the War and the North
crn Democracy.

crn Democracy.
The political firm OF Seward, Weed and Ray
mond, like the sails Of fishing schooner on
new tack, appears te-bc shivering in the wind.
II seems that these conservative republicans,
in cutting loose from their late party associs-
tons and in striking hands with the democracy
at the Philadelphia August Convention, cx-
pected something more from them than fusion
upon the same platform. reorganization Of
the democratic element, with the amalgamst-
ing republicans wss counted upon with Of
least fair share TO the latter Of the Congress
sional and gubernatorial nominations Of The
new party. n was indeed supposed that the
old democratic organization with it's unfor-
innate and unforgiven record Of the rebel
lion. was u he buried out OF sight, and that
lie materials, with the floating debris from the
republican party, were 20 DO recast in the torn
OF q new national Union party with new
name for iis new departure. u appears, how
ever, that the democracy think they have done
enough in accepting the Philadelphia resolu-
iions, and that they expect the johnson rspub-
licans TO take back seats in the old democratic
synagogue as organized and governed at lie
Chicago Peace-at-any-price Convention. How
much Congressional nomination or two would
effect in the reparstion Of this mistake we can
not tell nor is II Of any consequence TO know,
since II is apparent North and south, East and
West, that things have gone too far for any
possible combination TO defeat the great con-
stitutional amendment now before the country.
From the results OF the Maine election the
facts stand out in bold relief that the Union
party Of the war, since August last, has not
been losing, but has been and Ii gaining
strength-that Il remains not only intact, but
as earnestly active ~ at any time since the
opening bombardment Of Fort Sumter. II has
so happened too, that 10 the organised opposi-
tion the old antagonistic forces Of the war still
hold the field, and that from such significant
events as the New Orleans massacre and the
unfortunate incidents Of The Presidents late
excursion the public mind OF the North has
become nxed in Its purpose Of such restora-
tion OF the Union as will embrace substantial
and irrevocable securities for the future.
