The work of reconstruction has not ae-
tually made progress, for all sections OF
parties admit that the frame Of So
ciety in the southern division of the
union is as much disaTranged now as i;
ever has been. Governmentby by the bay
onet, and the forci0le suppression OF
thought, which every rejecting man in

tive men are pu. under a ban who are
not only excluded from the federal legis-
lature and federal offices, but are de-

J Says the National InteHigeHceT: The
! radical organs are eXulting over the an
nouncement that their majority IN Ala
/ Oama will be from 10000 10 $1,000. Let
/ them have the full benefit Of the fact ;
/ but let the white man of Pennsylvania
and Ohio also remember that this ma
/ jority is secured by the excess OF black
/ voters over white, and that these black
voters are, in the main, nOn-taN payers,
and that artful demagOgues have been
/ already instrueting them how, by mode

, vous susceptibility Of patients in yellow
T fever cases, even after they have passed
what is supposed TO be the crisis Of th'
disease. On Saturday night last Mr

rival as usual by firing a gun, and th
report gave the patient nervous shocl
which caused him to expire In the eOurs
, of five minutes. THAT said he, Il
