Lieut.. G. K. Warren, in 1857, and of Capt.

Beat at their own Game.

The radicals in congress expected when
they passed the military reconstruction bill
for the South, that its terms were so humili-
stns and odtous to the spirit of proud
people, that it would lie rejected with prompt.
ness and spirit, leaving them good excuse
Tor continnns to exclude the Southern peo-
PIE from representation in Congress, and by
Ibis means perpetuating Indefinitely their
power. Bat, the Southern men have stolen
match on th m. They accept the condi-
tons forced upon them, and propose to d.
CT th>ir former SLAVES how t, vote. The
slaves recognizing them as their only true
friends, defer to th cir fyrmer masters, which
has startled the radicals from their propr;e-
,y. The New York Tribune sounds the
alarm, and when Southern people knock at
The doors Of Congress with q Constitution
recognizing universal suffrage and comply
ing in all respects with the military recon-
struction ILL, We expect some new excuse
will be found for repe'ling them.

The Prevaiit NJ Commercial Depres
sion.

The following statements regarding the
present commercial depression are from The
New York Financial Chrcnic'e, which has
well earned reputation as IN able fna ncia
paper:
complaints are universal Of the stacna-
ton, and the uuproitabieness Of business.
spiius season SO depressed and generally
unsatisfactory as the present, is hardly with
in the memory OF our city merchants. Tue
trade OF the interior is generally reported
dull aud unPron ising. Although the South
has realized upon large portion of its cot
ton crop, II is found devoid of trading spirit
and even unable to iiqnidate much Of it's iu>
debtedness On account of last years pur-
chases. In The Western States, merchants
complain Of unusual d iiicuity in making
their collections and have on hand heavy
balance Of fall stock; tho result being that
ihe!r obligations to tine A !an,ic cities, in
many cases have to be renewed from thirty
to sixty days. The New England cotton
mills fnd the demand for goods 81 limited,
compared with their production, that Ut the
beginning OF this month some of the manu-
lecturers made q Still further curtailment of
their time q running. The wooden trade,
now one OF our most extensive industries,
although it recently diminished its aggregate
production probable qni;e 90 ,er cent, fnAs
ltt!e relief IRON the reduced supply Of goods,
and manufacturers have to sell large
amount Of their products at discount from
cost. In the leather .Ad iron trades similar
complaints prevail and, indeed, it would be
difficult to find an important exception to
The common tagnation.'
