The NEGRO VoTE. think that

THE NEGRO VoTE.-We think that
there is no doubt that the larger pro-
portion of the negro vote will be cast
at the suggestion or by the control of
those of the whites, whose influence
and political strength Congress has
sought to destroy by elevating the
freedmen to the enjoyment of the
elective franchise. The Albiuoes
will probably be allowed to elect a
large majority of their class to the
convention, and be permitted to
form the new State constitution
without opposition; but we are in
cllned to believe that in all subse-
quent elections the negroes will vote
not with that irresponsible set. but
as the men of property, education
and breeding, whom they will doubt
less dlsfranchise, may direct. The
negroes have learned something
since they have been made free. one
OF which IS that their old masters are
their best friends. In the towns and
cities the radicals will probably hold
the control of this vote, but in the
country the planters will have
SuilclenI influence to put them all
right. The very stick which the
radicals would use against us will be
the one with which we will break
thelr heads. They seek to DESTROY
the political strength of the South
by giving The ballot to the negro.
We will use that very ballot to re-
cover our lost position.
we think that if the better class of
the Southern people will let the Al
blnoes and negroes form constitu-
ton and do all that is necessary for
reconstruction, and then pitch in
and control the negroes afterwards,
that it will be found easy of accom-
Phshment and to be the best policy
for our section.

ARRESTS WITHOUT WAREAST-IM-
PoRTANT DEcIsIoS.-A case was re-
Gently tried in Worcester, Mass. and
a verdict of 800 given for the plain
TIL, who sued the city marshal for
OBTAINING him as party accused of
crime without warrant. The law as
lad down by the court in substance
requires that when a party is arrested
on suspicion without a warrant lex
cept IN cases where new facts exone-
rate the party from suspicion a
complaint must be made before ma
glstrate as soon as possible, or the
officer responsible for the arrest is
liable to be assessed III damages for
an unlawful act.

ADMIRAL SEMMEs Tho. New Or
leans ConamerciM, noticing the con
nectlon OF Admiral Semmes with the
Memphis Bulletin, says: We wish
Admiral Semmes would turn his at
tentlon to organizing a steam fleet
from our gulf ports to those of South
and Central America, Mexico and the
Islands. His practical knowledge
upon that subject would be worth
more to the South at this moment
than many volumes of disquisitions
upon the political remedies of the
future.

complete plates of which were found
upon the prisoner when taken, and
were shown to us yesterday, to be the

ever seen. The imitation is perfect.
The chemical process theory, about
the perfection of which so much has
been said, is entirely knocked to
pieces, as developed by the splendid
specimens of Ulrich's handiwork.
BESIDES the plates alluded to, Col.
Wood also found in the prisoners

50 notes on the National Bank of
New York, and on other banks.

WATERFALLS FALLING Down. The
scientific exposure in the English
journals In regard to the cAiguons is
having a very marked effect upon
that article in New York. The Ia
dies are beginning very generally to
throw it aside, and it is observed that
at the opera in New York but few are
worn IN the more fashionable of the
boxes. There are places in that city
where thousands Of dollars are in
vested IN the manufacture of them.

HOPEFUL. The New York Herald
OF Tuesday, after giving summary
of the supplementary bill, says:
We expect before next March to
announce to the world the complete
re-establishment sof the Union on the
new basis of universal liberty and
civil equality, with the restoration of
every rebel State to Congress. The
President has manifested in his
appointment of his five district mill
tary commanders-Schofie1d, Sickles.
Thomas, Ord and Sheridan-his pur-
pose to execute these laws of Con
gress faithfully; and from the South
ern civil experience and good services
OF each of these officers, we are salts
fled that they will carry out these
laws as quietly and kindly as pos
slble to the people of the several
States concerned. Whether, there
fore, ten excluded States shall or
shall not have q voice in this Con-
gress and in the election of the next
and our next President, Will depend
upon the course of the ruling white
class of each of the States directly
concerned; and that class, though to
some extent disfranchised in this
work of reconstruction, we are graft
fed to believe, is rapidly coming
round to the wise policy of prompt
and faithful compliance with the
terms OF Congress.
The prospect, therefore, of South
ern restoration is good; and the
encouraging indications we are
daily receiving from Virginia and all
the way through to Texas, warrant
the belief Of immense advantages to
all those States in the way Of North
ern capital and enterprise, in view of
large crops, even this year, OF corn,
tobacco, cotton, rice and sugar.
Cheerful submission to manifest
destiny will surely bring to the
South, in advance OF Southern resto-
ration, those great essentials Of
financial confidence in the develop
ment OF Southern industry-wealth
and prosperity.

HE PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE IN
FAVOR OF Gam PLAY. An illustra-
ton Of the free fight propensities Of
the new presiding officer of the Sc
nate took place on Saturday, which.
though IN contrast with the dignified
punctlllonsness of the late incumbent
of the place, is quite complimentary
to his love of fair play. During the
rather exciting debate on the supple
mentary reconstruction bill, two or
three sharp passages took place be-
tween Senators Trumbull and How
ard, relative to some Of the amend
ments proposed, the latter resentine
very warmly statement made by
Mr.. Trumbull, that those who were
sustaining the amendments proposed
were placing obstructions in the way
OF reconstruction Mr.. Trnmbuil
rose in reply, and without addressing
himself to the chair, proceeded to
lecture, at sound rate, Senators
Howard and Edmunds, turning his
back upon the chair and pitching
into the offending Senators in the
most approved style of parliamentary
fisticnffs. Senator Johnson, who was
standing at the clerks desk, near
the chair, called Mr.. Wade's atten-
ton to the parliamentary indecorum.
and suggested a call to order The
chair, however, failing to see any Sc
rlous violation of rules, indifferently
turned his eyes upon the scene and
kindly said, ooh, let them fight it
out; let them fight it out. !" The
friendly little mill ended without in

ARREST or a FENIAN SPY.-A de-
spatch from Toronto, c. W., dated
March IS, says:
a Fenian spy was arrested at the
Suspension Bridge on Saturday. He
Lad been followed from this city by
detectives, who, on searching his
satchel, found a plan of the city Of
Toronto and plans Of buildings, maps
OF the Niagara frontier, and list of
the names of the judges who have
sentenced the Fenians at the recent
trials.
He is said to be relative of one
of the convicted Fenians now in the
penitentiary. He was brought to
this city this morning, and it is ex-
pected that there will be important
developments at his trial.
1t having been understood that the
Hlbernians intended to parade the
streets yesterday, the police authori-
ties were instructed not to permit any
band of music to play on the street,
and not to allow any assemblage of
persons carrying banners, &C., as it
was calculated to create breach of
the peace. The procession conse-
queutly did npt take place.

ENCOURAGING FROM OLD VIRGINIA
The Fredericksburg Ne,cs contains
encouraging information:
1t is refreshing to learn that while
some have been whining and dis
couraging other people and making
themselves abominable nuisances
generally, the real men in Virginia
have been at work and are about to
receive the fruit of their labors.
On the Rappahannock River, be-
tween this place and its mouth, we
hear there is four times as much
produce waiting shipment to market
as there was last year. On this
side alone there is now, at least,
5000, 900 worth against $50, 900 last
year.
Then the fish crop is beginning
to be harvested That grows with
out planting, and is always better
after Il hard winter, and its profits
are always large. We should like
to have an estimate of the herring,
shad and rock fish ''fundum." Let
Governor Wise count the eggs in
big herring roe, and then make
the calculation.
There is more tobacco on the
South side of James River than ever
was before. In Richmond they dom t
begin to have room to receive what
is expected there It always brings
a good price and the New York mar
ket is now bare Of tobacco, and
prices will be better.
The wheat in the Valley, and
everywhere. looks splendidly-an-
other Providential compensation for
SO much snow.
Altogether, the prospects are en-
couraging. 1t is sinful and foolish
and criminal to grumble Thank
God and work harder, and we shall
see better times
