New Y0RK, November s. Tho World
has a laaearticle on clectioos headed What
of the filtura2' OF which tilG sabiafHcd is the
gist: These unfortuuat, elections deprive
President johnson Of what ought to have
been the chief glory Of his administrations
the paciGoation Of the country after the late
bloody contest Il isIdle 20 ask whether
BY greater promptituao ia breaking with the
Radicals, he might not have ayeIted this
modification He must now take the situa
ton as he hnds 1t, AMI make the best Of 1t.
Powerless during che residue OF his term, on
all contested questions OF domestic politics,
ms only chance OF acquiring prestige IS ~
connection withoug foreign relations. They
are less subject TO the control Of congress.
Ihe steps he Is understood to be taking to
rcsuscltate ar.a maintain the Monroe doc
Uine, viii be. warmly approved by the cguu-
Try. II wo aid be futile for him TO contend
longer with the radicals la respect to the
South, and. he viii best consult the dignity
of his otiae oy citing his action cease with
his responsibility. Against C0Dgre there
was no appeal but to the people; and the
passions OF the war have not yet sufficiently
subsidized TO permit them to judge With can
dor The ratification OF the amendment is
uos a question for him but for the States.

Upon the result the YiiJUae says: Here,

vancing North to the challenge OF the Pres
idant IN syliables as plain rs the haud-WE,t-
ing on the wali: that one hundred and
tWeutY-six radical Congressman arc elected

showing a fatal policy is Wei -hed i'm the bNi
anga and found wanting. Mr. johnson
committed his political foes 20 rum; the
North responds with radical Inajorities IN
nineteen States. Not an inch 0i graaaa
has been yielded br the loyal vote, aI4 u

be done, the North is resolved to maintain
