How to Settle Our Diffieulties.

The phitc people of the United States form
ed Constitution The best talent Of all Sec
lions was employed, and it has been pronoun-
ced ''master- piece" by the world. But, even
under it, the diversified interests, the local
prejudices, and the evil nature Of man created
the most terrible war of recorded time. That
war has been over three years and still there
is no settlement Of our difficulties. Is there
no solution, are the people of this country to
DO forever wrangling and quarelling? The
great mass want peace and quiet, and, if there
is no other way to get it, they prefer militia
ry despotism at once. The Southern white
people accept the fact, that this is to be one
Government, but they ask fair chance in it.
We do not allude to the past, to minor is
sues, to slavery, the war and its bloody re-
cord, or any thing that small politicians may
say Or do to retainpower and place. The great
fact starcs the American people in. the face
that their much boosted Republic is failure
that parcel of negroes have caused trouble
enough, and that it is to the interest Of alto
settle every question, that now divides the
achtc people, at once and forever.
How to do it is the trouble The trainers
Of the Constitution made provision fora Con-
vention Of all the States, upon the application
of two thirds. 1t was wise provision, the
prescient of great minds, and it should be used
by the white people of America now. The
war, the present Congress, the President and
all, have tried to settle the questions, which
divide the people of what was the United
States. All hare failed Now let the peo-
pie Of all the States forgetting the past, call a
Convention of the States and send to it their
best men, Let them divest themselves Of all
prejudice, and send to it their wisestan most
experienced men. IF they can not settle upon
form of Government, that will do justice to
all, and suit this age and people, then Liber-
ty and free Government are lost. Can't we
try it?
Is there honesty, is there common sense
enough among the white people on this con
tincnt to throw aside small politicians to
forget the past and face the great issues Of
the day, as a mighty, free people should ?
We hope so but fear not. We fear that tho
day when the Lion and the Lamb shall lie
down together, whea the conqueror and the
conquered, shall dwell together in unity
and peace, is far distant but, then, these cues
tons mast be settled.

were captured, as savages, by the ancestors of
the 100000 whites now living here, are
such fools as to suppose the said 100000

THE GREAT STRUGGLE-OUR DUTIES

h.teAigencer, when itsays:
eve are only at the beginning of a stu
pendous struggle, which is to involve the
very existence of free institutions. The first
skirmish has shown what may be accomplish
ed under the greatest disadvantages. But
the enemy, who are in possession of power,
with an unprecedented organization, with all
the vast machinery of Office, the influence of
close corporations, and an unlimited control
Of money, will not yield single stronghold
without contest intensified by desperation
and hatred of the popular will. Let us not
suppose that the victory is won, because the
outposts have been stormed and carried
Much work yet remains to be done; and all
the people Of the North ask at the hands Of
their oppressed friends at the South is, that
their acts will serve to vindicate the claims
to justice which have been so calamity and
ably espousedby the Conservative masses, who
are striving to rescue the nation from great
er peril than any which beset it during the
existence Of the war"

The Virginia Elections.

At the date Of this writing, says the Ma
tional Intelligencer, the returns Of the cleo
ton just held in Virginia are insufficient to
show with any certainty how that State has
voted; but we imagine majority will be
to have voted for a convention, and we ap-
prehend also negro majority secured in that
body. This result was intended from the be-
ginning; the frauds4in registration and ap-
pointment all show that it was..a foregone con-
clusion. The negroes appear to have gener-
ally voted as body, and the two races were
pitted one against the other The few ne
groes in Richmond and Lynchburg who at
tempted to vote the Conservative ticket were
at once set upon By the Infatuated blacks, and
barely escaped with their lives, by the des-
perate exertions of the police, aided by the
Federal military. The mob Of blood-thirsty
negro savages, whom the Radicals propose to
invest with the political power of this noble
old Commonwealth, yielded slowly before
the evident determination of the military to
enforce order. These latter acted with much
greater forberance, we imagine, than they
would have done if white men had thus de-
fed their authority, and interrupted the
peaceful progress Of the election.
Such is Reconstruction" in Virginia
black carnival of license, ushered in by fraud
violence, and miditated murder, until things
have now come to such pass, that in the
capital of the State which gave us Washing
ton, Jefferson, and Madison, the cry Of those
demoralized blacks is not merely for the
property of the whites, and the blood Of
their own race who vote Independently, but
for that, also, Of the Northern resident who
refuses to endorse their Jacobin projects
Against these last Hunnicutt gives the sign,
and the faithful pack echo the cry, kill the
d-n Yankee kill him shoot him !" and the
words were at once followed by an effort of
the mob to accomplish their murderous pur-
pose.
Here we behold the first fruits of the
"Congressional policy Of reconstruction. -
No State has been, so far, restored to the
Union but class Of, heretofore orderly and
peaceful laborers, have been transformed into
