West Virginia-all three Republicans
There is good reason to believe, however,
that they will all desert the radicals, and
vote with the conservatives and Democrats
Here will be, then, the legal and constitu-
tional Congress
There is good reason to believe that the
President, acting under the advice of the
Attorney-General, will insist, in bis mes
sage, upon the immediate admission of the
Southern members, and that he will not
recognize the trump" indefinite, unless
they manifest an honest intention to comply
with the constitutional requirements
The consequences of recognizing the
rump Congress all winter are as plain as
daylight, and they constitute series OF
calamities that Mr.. johnson has no desire
to bring upon the country. First would be
his own suspension from Office, the deposi-
ton of the President under preteuce of
impeaching him. And next would be the
forcing of oegro suffrage 90 all the South
ern States. With the President deposed
and the radicals 10 full possession of both
houses of Congress, the latter would make
short work of the fragments that remain OF
our former system of Government. With
out President, with the Constitution torn
to shreds, With the whole power of Govern
ment 10 their hands, we would be living
under an oligarchy composed of the radical
leaders, whose only care would be to devise
measures to pcrpetuate their own power.
Every step which the radical leaders have
taken since the war began was taken with
this end in view, and thus far their plots
have entirely succeeded. 1t ouly remains
for them now to take the above steps, and
their work is done, and they will have reached
the summit of their desires,
The Signs are Frightening.
The Richmond Times is actually grow
iug hopeful In its issue Of Tuesday, it
says:
Advices from the North indicate an
abatement of radical violence. As is al
ways the case subsequent to elections, the
unity of the triumphant party is threatened,
because of those differences upon certain
questions, which are ignored during the
canvass in order to maiotain the harmony
necessary to success.
The recent victories of the radicals Sc
riously menace their party unity Many
of the politicians who have assailed the
Presidential policy of Southern rehabiIita-
ton, and given their cordial co operation to
the plan of Congress, are men Of moderate
views, when compared with Brownlow,
Stevens and Wendel Phillips. The brutal
disposition of the latter towards the South
is utterly revolving to them, aud there can
not possibly be even an approach to una
nimity in the adoption of any general
policy. Sumner, Butler and Stevens will
insist upon coufscatioDs, negro suffrage,
the hanging of Mr. Davis and the impeach
ment of Nj. johnson. The more moderate
men will favor none of these mad projects ;
the extreme radicals will be content with
nothing short of the thorough adoption
and execution of their violent views; and
it is simply impossible for them to command
the strength in Congress and the popular
sympathy necessary to their plans
1t is reasonably clear that Mr.. JohDson
does not fear Impeachment, aud that really
he has no occasion for such apprehensions.
In addition to the fact that his enemies will
be utterly unable to establish case against
him, sufficiently strong to justify such au
extreme measure, even with the radical
masses, the length of time consumed il
debate upon the proposition of impeachl
ment, the impatience of the people under
constant agitatious, assisted by the calb aud
digui6ed attitude of the South, will CON
suumate the incipient split i'll the radical
organization There is even probability
that the attempt to force the constitutional
amendment" upon US will be abandoned.
The Northern people, seeing iu our unre
sisting attitude of patience under accumu
lated suffering and provocatiop, sufficient
refutaton of the radical charges against Us,
of beligereut and rebellious disposition,
will cease to be urgent for "guarautees' of
our faithful allegiance in the shape Of a
base surrender of our manhood, aid au
odious prescription of our most eminent fel-
low citizeus
