The course of the radical extremists
on the question of negro suffrage is
contemplate. Last year the question
was made in Connecticut and one of
the Western States, and voted down.
Yet the representatives of these States
voted in Congress to impose negro suf-
frage upon the District of Columbia.
In New York last year they did not
dare to incorporate negro suffrage in
the platform; yet some days ago the
Legislature of the State adopted a res
olution in favor of the extension Of
equal suffrage in the District OF Co
Iumbia to ali male citizens Of suitable
ages" meaning thereby to include ne
groes. The Pennsylvania Convention,
which met the other day, ignored the
subject entirely. dead Duck" says in
regard to this
The Convention did not shirk the ques-
ton. lt cannot come before the
people of tina. State until about 1901 When
thst time comes -four years hence ] the men
VINO did not fear 10 speak out On Wednesday
wall not fear 10 take ground IN giving the
right Of suffrage 10 ell their citizens. The
subject itself was not mooted. The lniellt-
gent c0l0red men OId not ask II!
As the y. Y. Commercial Advertiser
says, no such scruples we're in the way,
when Pennsylvania Representatives IN
Congress voted suffrage to the blacks
IN the District Of Columbia, and they
seem little hampered 10y similar scru-
pies in regard to administering this
vital guarantee to the States lately
in rebellion. IL is always much easier
to make other people do right, than to
do hight ourselves. If the "colored
people Of Pennsylvania did not ask
Tor suffrage, and are willing TO wait
four years fol- the agitation Of the ques-
ton. they had better recall their dele
gates who cannot wait four minutes at
Washington, for the extension of suf-
trspe TO three or four million blacks.
The Washington Republican takes
up this subject, and administers tho
following rebuke TO certain Congress
men. Ii says;
In the face Of the patriotic record OF this
Convention, We desire 20 see the radical
members Of Congress from Pennsylvania
undertake 10 thrust negro suffrage upon the
Southern States, OF even upoa the people Of
this District. II We should obtain quathed
sgHrrHFe-which we have steadily aud ccu-
s.4tsuily urged for the colOred men of this
Distuet-We want il without the AID oimon
who have. iu a cowardly manner shlrAcd
the whole question ina Pennsylvanls-
The Republican also says that the
following resolution is 20 be submitted
40 the House
Rs,oIrcf. That the valuable time Of this
Congress ought not 10 be occupied with the
subject Of negro suffrage until thc State Of
Penusylvauia shall be ready 70 enter upon
lus consideration.

A very decided conservative paper called
the Countryman, published al Turnwald,
Ga, enunciates the e sentiments:
owe feel as if We would be willing 10 give
cur life if we could restore our Constitution
in its every item TO full force, power. and
effect, saving the clause which recognized
slavery. That clause is annnlled. Let it
remain SC. The South is willing now to
give that up, if she can have the balance Of
the Constitution as it was when she with
drew from the Union. Negro slavery was
temporary; and is gone forever. But we
appeal to the American people to hold on 10
the great eternal elements OF free govern
ment-Liberty Of Speech ana Of the Press,
Habeas Corpus, jury Trial, and Popular
Representation"
To this, every true Union man in the na-
ton viii respond in a hearty Amenl AL
that is asked now by any patriot and CHRIS
tan philanthropist, is that the Constitution
shall be SO Interpreted, OF guarded against
false Interpretation, that elderly Of speech
and the press, the habess corpus, jury trial,
and popular representation" shall be Sc
cured TO all the governed Of the nat On
Buffalo Express.
All this can be accomplished by sup
porting the policy Of the Administra-
ton Of Andrew johnson. The South
ern people, with the greatest unanim-
nifty agree with the C~ountrymsn. They
have been greatly slandered and mis-
represented, but will ostliye calumny,
and by their good conduct win the res
pect of every patriot and christian
philsnthropist"

was, her large foreign population never
having transferred the allegiance which
they bore to France before the treaty
Of transfer and that South Carolina Is
more loyal than she has been since the
notification fever began to break out
But he grimly minated that other
sections of the Union are not display
ing much loyalty, and that the next re
