The DisGranchEsement of 24,OcO
Soldiers.

Some Republican journals have under
taken to make light of the circumstance
that the pending Constitutional Amend
ment, in the event of its adoption, will
disfranchise from sixteen to twenty thous
and soldiers who did faithful service un-
til the actual close of the War. 1t won't
do. The Cincinnati Commercial finds
upon investigation, that tie Amendment
will disfranehise about $4,000 White
soldiers. This, it thinks, friendly as it
is to Negro suffrage, will not do-thiuks
it will not do to disfranchise $4,000
whites that about 6, ,172 Negroes may be
made voters. More than this: it thinks
it will be incumbent on the Republican
State Convention to repudiate the Amend
ment; but at the same time declare in
favor of Negro Suffrage. A beautiful
fix the Republican party has got itself
into by reason of this Amendment. 1t
seals the fate of the Republican party
in Ohio.-iStdtesman.
