PLANS OF REcoNsTRUcTIoN.-Aw writer
in the New York Times calls upon Con-
gress to call conventions in the southern
States and submit the amendment to them.
Another writer for the same journal says
the southern States should, while they
have the opportunity, secure for them
selves a limited and impartial suffrage 'o'th,
out regard to color. They may thus avoid
having forced upon them universal SUI
frage, which is curse to any community
whether white or black, until fitted for it.
No community is fit for universal suffrage
until both the head and the heart of the
masses, have received Christian educa-
ton, and are controlled and guided by it.
Until thus fitted, the privilege of suffrage
should be connected with some other
qualification.

GRANT, SHERIDAN, &c.-Forney says
That sign of the times which gives most
hope to the patriotic heart is the position,
no longer concealed, Of General Grant and
his illustrious military associates, Philip
Sheridan, George H. Thomas, Daniel E..
Sickles, E. o. C. Ord, and Samuel P.
Heintzleman, on the great questions of the
day. The hope that the President of the
United States will attempt an armed inter-
ference in the legislation Of the Congress of
the people, openly expressed by the still
defiant leaders Of the rebellion, is thus
sternly extinguished.

"To-day there are well-authenticated
rumors here that General Grant cannot be
depended upon to resist Congress in case
of impeachment, and that he is hourly be-
coming more outspoken in his radicalism.

the past few days, declared that unless
more radical measures are adopted Aby
Congress that there win be no safety at
the South for either white or black 10y

Biver news.
The river was falling last evening,
with thirty inches water in the chan
mel. There was nothing doing at the
landing yesterday. The Leni Leoti de-
parted for Parkersburg at II A. NJ, from
EDetwiler's landing. During this low
stage of water, boats cannot get over
the creek bar. The Sallie V. and LIE
Claire were due here yesterday morn
ing but up to last evening at dusk they
had not made their appearance, but
very likely they will be found at the
lower landing this morning New State
included.) 1t is almost impossible for
boats to run in this smoky, foggy
weather in day time at this low stage OF
water, and are compelled to lay up
early in the evening. There being four
boats plying between this place and
Parkersburg, we expect smong them
there will be boat for each day. The
following are the names of the steamers
in tina Wheeling and Parkersburg
trade: LEM Leoti, LIE Clair, sallie V.
New State. ..
Boats leaving to-day-Sallie ", for
Parkersburg at 10 A. H., LIE Claire or
New State for Parkersburg at II A. NJ.
The Cincinnati Commercial of yester-
day says:
Three schooners, built here, departed
for Texas yesterday. They are intended
to ply between Corpus Christi and In
dianola, through Arkansas Bay. They
were built under the supervision of
Richard j. Freeman, for. Andrew Stew
art, formerly of Steubenville, Ohio.

New Ferry EsGEE. s-f
As will be seen by the proceedings Of
the South Wheeling Board of Trustees,
Mr.. Detwiler petitioned that body, on
Wednesday evening last, for the priv.
lege Of establishing ferry landing in
South Wheeling, at some point be.
tween Washington Mill and the lower
end of town. He proposes to run q
ferry from such place to the Ohio
side, thinking that it will prove bene'
fetal. When the roads are muddy
the thoroughfare on the Virginia side
between Ritehietown aud Benwood, il
always in deplorable condition, while
the road to Bellaire, on the Ohio side
is a good one. In bad weather, trains
coming to Ritchietown and to this city
from Bellaire and that section of coun,
