The New York Herald is getting little
over against Radicalism. That astute paper
says: 1.-The people of the United States are
just beginning to understand the intent and
possible effects eff certain bills, passed by
Congress over the veto of the President. >
In regard to the tenure of office bill the
Herald declares this bill indefensible as ICON
stitutional," and that the Radicals themselves
do not pretend to base it upon the Constitu-
ton, but present it as necessary part of the
revolutionary movements of this reyolutiona-
nv period. To this the Herald adds the fol-
lowing very significant remarks:
GAS such it is expected that the people
will accept them and their consequences,
even if it should appear that there is no long
er any Constitution or any law, and that the
vast majority of white, free born citizens of
the United States are henccforth to be gov
erned by four millions of emancipated negroes
who, Notwithstanding their ignorance and
degradation, are to be entrusted with the
balance of power. The survivors of the brave
army that fought four years in defence of
the Union may well ask, is it for this result
that we fought and sacrificed the lives Of our
fallen comrades 2 And all may ask, is it
to this complexion that We must come at
last p"
There is something in the wind These
are notable indications. -Erchdnge.

In these times VIC can scarcely cast about

In these times VIC can scarcely cast about
Us for grains of comfort, so muddled and in
definite are the ideas of all on all subjects,
and when stray grain falls within our grasp
we should not be exclusively selfish but
should divide the atom among the greatest
possible number, satisfied that it will cheer
and enliven all whom it reaches. This is
the case at present with the political situa-
ton. In the various efforts to humble our
unfortunate people, it has been suddenly
found that there are two sides to the ques
ton of humliating the South by disfranchis
ing her best citizens and enfranchising an
unlettered and ignorant class, who, as reck-
lessly desire to seize the reins of government
as did the tabled Phaeton to mount and drive
the chariot of the sun, and with like effect
politically. Northern men are more gener
ally beginning to count the cost of the ex-
travagant and i'll advised legislation of the
past and to determine whittier it is leading.
One of the most noted and widely extended
Journals in the North, which not only moulds
political sentiments. but has ever been sort
Of shadow of coming political phases in this
country, has just spoken out boldly against
Reconstruction legislation, its concomitants
and its probable results. 1t now sees that
the effort to throw off the 'slave-holding
power of the past has but ingrafted upon the
country the Freedman" power, greater by
odds and more to be dreaded on account Of
its numbers and its want of reasoning
power.
IS Others, of equal bo1dncss. declaim, daily
and weekly, against the "bond-holding"
power, built up likewise by reckless and ex-
trayagant legislation and find concordant
sympathy among the masses.
The grain of comfort we draw is, that the
representatives of these opinions, the one
restless over the probably entire overthrow
of Constitutional Republican government, by
running the length of the Radical tether, the
other ill content with it's condition of over
burdcned taxation, are endeavoring from
different stand points to restore the equilib-
rum and seem converging to the same ul-
innate good, from which at no distant day
we may hope the goal ofpcace and prosperi-
ty will be reached. We are still powerless,
however, to act for ourselves, but our course
thus far has been amenablc to little censure
from those even who sought occasion to find
fault Let us then continue the even tenor
Of our way, acting fairly with all and trust
that the causes are at work that will bring
order out of political chaos and make our
country and people once more prosperous
and happy.

THE RIGHT SpIR1r--The Richmond Wing
notices with commentator, and characterizes
''as an important movement" the late Or
ganization of the ex-federal officers, soldiers
and sailors in Virginia, and thinks it will
render great aid in assisting to reconstruct
that State on basis that will b. in harmony
with the wishes and interests of all classes of
its inhabitants. The sentiments of these
men were signally manifested in a discussion
which took place at their meeting TUESDAY
evening) on resolution that was offered
Lieut. Colonel Merrill is reported as saying
in substance:
s'That he would rather take by the hand
a Confederate soldier who fought from hon
est intentions in wrong cause, if he hon
cstly accepted the situation, than the so-called
Virginia loyalist-even if he does have
newspaper-who voted for the ordinance of
secession, and thereby put the former into
service against his will
:'Colonel Egbert said he was not in favor
Of keeping in Office those renegade Virgin
ians who voted for secession and then went
North as Union shriekers, in preference to
men who had periled their lives in defence
of their country"
Other members Of the organization spoke
in the same spirit The Wing justly says
that all this goes to prove that, if the ques-
tons at issue between the Northern and
Southern people could be left to the arbitra-
ment of the officers and soldiers of the two
armies, rather than to the politicians and
-combatants, they would long ago have
been amicably disposed Of.

THE CRETAN WAR.
ATRooIoUs CONDUCT OF THE TURKs-IMPoR-
TANT NEWS FROM GREECE.

Washington, Nov. 10. The latest ac-
counts from Crete state that although
the Turkish commander in.chief ordered
hostilities to be suspended during the me-
gctiations of Ali Pasha with the Provin-
cial Government of Crete, the Turkish
soldiery could not be restrained from VIC
lat;ng the truce They set fire to the
olive groves and gardens in order, it is
said, to wreak a revenge which they had
failed to crafty by legitimate warfare in
the battle of Rethguens,in which they had
been severely defeated by the Cretans.
The fire continued two days, and CONVEX
ted the vicinity of this town into a desert,
aud the Turkish authorities spread the
rumor that the Christian warriors were
guilty Of this crime, Notwithstanding it
was proven by incontcstable evidence
that the Christians did not come near
town, and that the Moslem soldiery were
the incendiaries in this, as they had been
on Former occasions, when they in like
manner destroyed the olive groves Of the
Greeks. 1t is not true, as has been stated
through the influence Of Moslem agents.
that the Cretans laid down their arms at
the mere sight Of Ali Pasha, and that
only few opposed him.
The Provisional Government of Crete
has issued proclamation rejecting all
overtures of the Sultan; and declaring
that it will lay down its arms only be-
fore King George of Greece. the only SOW
ereign whom they are willing to recog-
nize. The Grecian Chambers have
passed an act making appropriations for
the relief of the suffering Cretan families.
also for the relief of the feet Much en-.
thusiasm prevailed in Greece on the news
of the annxation of Crete to its territory.
The people looked with great interest for
the arrival Of King George and Queen
Olga. The Regent, Prince John, on re.
ceiving the official address of the newly
elected President Of the Chambers, OK.

to the suspicious bearing of the matrimo-
NAL alliance between the King Of Greece
and Russian Princess, upon the future

ing Democrats are possessed by the idea
that Republicans chosen on Tuesday last
with regard to their opinions upon the
license law, will at once desert their party
and follow the lead of P. L. L. Demo

The liberal Republicans have no inten-
ton, so far as we are informed, of FORM
ing any new alliance beyond voting for
the repeal Of the prohibitory law and es-
tablishing stringent license law. They
will not listen to the suggestion of the
prohibitionists, who will advocate free
trade in rum for the purpose Of producing
reaction. and they will vote only for a
law which shall regulate the sale of IL

Mr.. EDITOR :

Mn. EDITOR:
The Masquerade Levce held at Morris.
vile on the evening of the seventh was a
success in every sense Of the word. The
town hall was filled to overhowing with
those who, judging from their cheerful
laugh and smiling faces, had come to be
and to make merry. In the early part Of
the evening, when all were enjoying eli
ther tete-a tete with their friends or the
good things" which the ladies had pre-.
pared. the masqueraders appeared, dressed
in all costumes and paradcd through the
hall to the satisfaction and delight Of all
present. A song, entitled 1.-The Beggar's
Plea, from little Jennie Wait, was then
listened to with marked interest; her
pleading, plaintive tones bringing tears to
the eyes of many Of those present. The
tableaux were well arranged, and were
received with applause from an applecia-
tive audience--seyeral of the scenes being
called for the second time. The proceeds
are to buy library for the Sabbath
school of the Univorsalist Society All
we're pleased to contribute for SO good an
object; and especially SO since they re-
ceived as much again in return. M,
