the Raleigh Sentinel it is determined if pos
sible to defeat Convention. and thus pre-
vent the; return Of the State to the Union
under the present reconstruction acts, with
the hope that Andrew johnson may be able
in some way or other, to create change
which will enable the Southern States to re-
turn at last To the Union with the white Un-
iionists and colored people u 'uundear. foot, and
the rebel leaders in full possession Of power,
This is the darling object they have in view,
and every energy they have is exerted to
effect it. They even hope that in the
last resort, Andrew johnson will attempt
to disperse the Congress and set up Con
oress of his own. AS they stake(1 everything
in 1880 and ruincd their country for office
50 NOW rather than retire 10 hack Seats and
let the loyal men rule. they would involve
tbe neople in another bloodv war The tone
of their presses shows this "a he 50 Tbey.

the Republican ticket And then. in the
face of all this thouoh the white Republi.
cans have only quietly but firmly asserted
their rights. and tile colored people have
only done the same, raising their voices
against no portion of the white race, but in
culcating good will and charity for all, these
leaders of an accursed rebellion, and these
organs of theirs, edited for the most part by
t desperate men having but little stake in the
public welfare, declare that unless the color
ed people change their course there will be "a
war of races. and that they and their white!
friends will be exterminated We repeat,
this conduct is the result Of the positions oc-
cupied by suclr as Gov Graham, Gov. Worth,
and the Sentinel which speaks for them:
but above and beyond this, it is to be traced
to the treason of Andrew johnson, and his
meditated purpose to disperse the Congress
and proclaim himself Dictator. 1t is natu-
raj, also, that some of the post commanders,
taking their hue from the Commander-in-
chief, should look with too much allowance
on treason and traitors, and SO act as to re-
ceive compliments from the rebel press,
which impair their usefulness by producing
the impression, no doubt unfounded, that
they are in sympathy with copperheads and
traitors But Congress- will soo1, be il, session.
