THE RECONSTRUCTION PROGRAMME

We are informed that at the special
meeting OF the executive committee of the
national reconstruction party, held last
week, it was resolved to hold no more meet
ings of that party, and to put no ticket into
the field. Every member of that committee
pledged himself 10 use his influence and
money to elect only colored men to the con-
stitutional convention. They also resolved
to lobby among the members of the con-
vention when it met for the purpose of
persuading the convention not to insert in
the constitution any clause DISTINGUISHING
those who are not disfranchised by the
military reconstruction bills.
