Radicalism in Congress.

Now that the Radical members
of Congress are in possession of a
majority sufficiently large to ena-
bile them to do as they please, they
seem determined to go to the ut
most extreme, regardless Of conse-
quences. They appear resolved
to set at naught common sense as
we'll as common justice, to mock at
the most solemn provisions Of the
constitution, and look only to the
perpetuation of their own polite
al power, even if another civil war
must be tie issue of their reckless
proceedings. The minority in the
meantime, being powerless to re-
strain these ultras from achieving
their disorganising purposes, have
concluded to "give them rope
enough and let them hang them
selves" with all possible expedi-
tion-a course of policy which
might be wise enough, if it did not
afford us the unsatisfactory pros
pect Of seeing the country hung
? along with them.
Both houses of Congress have
passed the negro suffrage bill for
the District of Columbia. 1t will
probably be vetoed, since it does
noteven require intellectual capaci-
ty as a qualification on the part of
the negro; but the bill, if vetoed,
will be passed by two-thirds vote
over the Executive objection
There was a lively debate in the
Senate on the proposition to allow
females as we'll as males to vote,
but the amendment was rejected
by 81 too.
AS the primary object of the
Radical leaders is to exclude the
ten late rebel States from all par
ticipation in the next Presidential
election, bill has already passed
the House excluding the Represen-
tatives of those States from the
next Congress. Another has been
introduced as a beginning, to re.
duce North Carolina to a territori.
al condition, and directing a Con.
vention to be called in that State,
next May, to organize a new gov.
eminent and to set aside the one
now in operation. If this bill sue
ceeds, all the other ex-rebel States
are to be degraded in a similar
manner. Of course, such proceed
ings are unconstitutional and revo
lutionary, but ChiefJ Justice Chase
is at the head of the United States
Supreme Court, and the Radicals
suppose that he may be able to ex'
ercise influence enough over his col
leagues on the bench to prevent
them from interfering with the &C
ton of Congress. In the mean
time, as these Radicals affect tC
say that the States in question are
to be thus punished" because they
will not accept the constitutional
amendment bestowing the elect
i've franchise on the late slaves and
DISTINGUISHING SO many white citi.
Gems, the House has adopted a res.
olution to enquire into the expedi.

pose OF Congress to admit the Rep

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.-The Rad
ical Press of the West, which are
so fierce for negro suffrage, are
making all sorts of fun over the
idea of giving suffrage to women.
If negroes are to vote generally,
women will not long be excluded
from the ballot. Those who begin
innovations will find it hard to
stop. 1t is easier to break the
dikes than to mend them, and
this the Radicals, by and by, may
find to be true, both to their cost
and their sorrow. The subject of
women suffrage is far ahead of the
point reached by the negro suf-
frage question before the war, and
between agitation" ''gallantry,"
Equality" elderly" &C., the few
women who demand all this, will
in time carry the day.--M Y.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. GA man named
Phillip Dnllard dropped dead on the
sidewalk near the corner of Third and
Chestnut streets, about halt pnst 10 last
night. He was boarder at the Pres
colt House, where he was taken by Of
ficer DurdY. He had on his person AN
open faced gold watch and chain, Il note
for three hundred dollars, and other
papers. The Coroner held an inquest
on his body this morning.
Ever since the perpetfation of the
horrible murder ON ObouteRu avenue,
considerable Q indignation has been
manifested by a portion of our German
fellow-citiZens against the murderer.
The police this morning took young
to the scene OF the tragedy, where his
testimony was required at the corouer,s
inquest. AS the officers and their
charge were returning down Chestnut
street to the Central Station, about IL
o'clock, the street, from the Court
house to Third, was crowded with peO-
Pile, anxious TO obtain a view of the
heartless fellow, and when they had
arrived near the station, the crowd
made demonstrations OF a threatening
nature, and it was apprehended that
violence would be used. A sufficient
force of policemen interposed, howev-
er, and quieted affairs, after which the
young Murderer was again confined to
his cell.

Reduction Of the.Army.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2

REDUCTION OF THE ARMY.
Gen. Grant is going on with his work
of retrenchment, and to-day issued his
General Order No. 10I for the reduction
OF the army, which is as follows:
HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY,
WASHINGTON, Nov. %, 1867.
The following orders will be duly ex-
ecuted:
First. All regiments of infantry, and
all those OF artillery, except the eight
light Batteries, will be reduced to the
minimum allowed by law, viz: so pri-
Yates per company. The reduction will
be by casualty, and when one company
falls below the minimum IL will be re-
cruited by transfer from other compa-
MES of the same regiment until all are
at the minimum.
Second, The General Recruiting Ser
vice will Immediately be reduced by
breaking up all excepting the four prin-
cipat rendezvous for each arm, cavalry
and artillery, and ordering surplus re-
crulting officers to their regiments. No
more recruits will be sent TO regiments
until they are reduced as above ordered.
This order will not be construed TO pre-
vent re-enlistment in their regiments
of men who may be discharged by the
expiration of their term OF service.
Third. All volunteer officers now re-
out, TO take effect January l, 1865, except
Commissioners and Disbursing Officers
OF the Freedmen's Bureau.
BY command of General Grant,
L. d. TOWNSEND, A. A. G.
The army now numbers about $4,000
men. The foregoing order will, il Is
expected, reduce it 10 about 1900, and
effect an annual saving Of seven or
eight millions OF dollars. Gen. Grant
thinks it would not be expedient, ut
present, to pass law making any re-
duotion in the military force, as some
bad consequences might follow from
the sudden withdrawal of even ten
thousand men. This order, to;be sure
leaves in service au unusually large
proportion OF officers, but it keeps the
army in such shape that 1t can rapidly
be increased should occasion arise.
The reduction proposed will occupy
several months, and will be SO gradual
that no Ill effects are anticipated. The
issuance of this order will probably do
away with all necessity for Legislation
looking to the decrease of the army. as
Gen. Grant thinks no greater reduction
can be made TIL reconstruction Is &C.
complished.
