NUMBER 1.
The New Reconstruction Scheme.

The telegraph spoke, a day or two
since, Of the new plan OF reconstruction
(which is proposed as compromise for
Mr.. Thaddeus Stevens Enabling Act
The following is the particulars OF tho
plan, taken from the Philadelphia Led.
ger:
"ln reference to the demand Of the peo-
pie OF the North, and in which Southern
representative men who have been heard
upon the subject acquiesce, the President
thinks that the negro population of the
South should have such safeguards
thrown about them as 10 secure to them
the permanent enjoyment Of their free
dom, and that the negre armed with the
ballot, can as we'll protect himself as apy
other citizen.
Some Of the Northern States, Massa.
chusetts and New York for example, have
given the ballot to the negro. In one of
them is an educational, in the other a
property qualification, and il is asked
why may not South Carolina, for instance
be placed upon the same footing with
Msssach usetts as to those who shall here
after be admitted to the elective franchise:
and why may not the loyal representa-
tives Of the former be admitted to Con.
grsss upon the same footing as the repre-.
senta,ives Of the latter! Marking ou.
this plan in practical form. let the peo.
| pie Of the State Of South Carolina 60
amend their constitution and laws as to
extend the elective franchise so far as
Massachusetts has gone.
As an incentive to this reform the Pres.
ident intimates his readiness to issue q
proclamation Of amnesty to all the peo.
pie Of South Carolina who may have ap,
proved the movement This reform be.
ing accomplished the people Of that State
electing loyal Representatives to Con.
gress, blacks voting with whites, As iudi.
Gated above, it would then rest with
Congress to determine whether these
Representatives should be admitted. I
bave good reasons for saying this plan for
adjusting the existing difficulties in the
way Of reconstruction is now receiving
the serious consid Grafton of the AdmiLi.-
tration, and has been discussed in the
Cabinet with view to its adoption. 1t
difiers from Nj. Gresley's amnesty suf.
fsge scheme in that it provides. for sepa,
rate State action and proposes a qualified
suffrage; and it leaves impractcabls and
unrepsntaLt rebels still subject to the
penalties for treason-amnesty and suf.
frsge each being qualified. 1t leaves
States to the exercise OF their copstitu.
tionsl prerogativs Of prescribing the quail,
iication Of voters and extending the el.
sctive franchise to the negro to the Ex
ecutive the dispensstion Of pardon and
amnesty, and to the legislative the sG
mission Of loyal representatives to tho
respective Houses Of Congress, each
branch OF the Government thus moving
in it appropriate sphere.

As he was opening the gate, he heard
the bankers voice snrmoning him to re.

not been my lot to behold during many years
OF mining experience. The gold may be

From rough guess, should judge that it
would yield from 81 500 to $1,000 per ton.
This is great deal, when we consider that
the cost of mining and milling the ore is on.

most extensive mining districts ia California,
