REcoSsrRUcTIoN.-The Washington correspondent of
the Louisville Journal, writing under date of the eth
ult, discourses as follows on the reconstruction qucs-
ton:
After several days of anxious consultation on this
subject the republican senators understood to have
concluded that they cannot take the radical chute too
far They have consequently determined to give the
go-by to Thaddeus Stevens programme, and adopt
policy little more consistent with president ohnsous
views Both negro suffrage and territorial jurisdiction
over the nsurrecuonary States will be abandoned but
perfect protection and equality with white men in the
courts for freedmen in the south, and essential
modification of the ratio Of representation will be re-
CURED as the gua Of recognition of the south
err States by congress.
The ratio of representation is regarded the most
important feature be regarded in the reconstruction
of the States The republicans intend that it shall be
fixed upon as basis Of the number Of actual voters so
as to limit the represented classen the south to those
to whom is extended the right of suffrage This will
very much diminish the number of congressman ac-
corded the southern States under the last apportion
ment.
In reference to the suffrage question in this district
conservative member of the house proposes an amend
ment to senator Summers BILL that in addition to
jury composed half of negroes to try the of black
man. it shall also be required that the judge shall be
mulatto.
