ID Aud yet we find that General How

Sn The business o. General HOWARD is
lis to help Jacobinism maintain Itself in

Psr-oThe New York ITmes, an original
5ossesad consistent Republican Journal, ia
,reSl .sore, last disgustsd with the villsnies Of
ldicsl legislation, The days of that
.o,splcable snd dstes.abls faction are
lmbersd, when an influential Rspub-
ian Journal like the Tines feels It.
II constrained 20 say:
The Springfield RepV5iod31 is predict
jGaslg thst Congress viii reud b .ek the
constitutions Of some Of the 50utberH
tates for amendment, on account Of the
descriptive provisions which they COZ.
iln. That OF Alabama, for example,
nd rrohibits any man from voting who will
Ot take an oath never TO oppose negro
lffage. Such provision 81 this is 4
, the mple outrage upon every principle Of
! a Iestiee and is ss unwlse Rs 1t is
rsaS Unjust. 1t will disfrRnchise q very
se overge portion Of the whites Union men
&,TSts ~ =, well as re5els-and was probably In
ecipe' elded TO have that effect.
WI(.S~3ut We think the Republicans Is over
lrSh 4 M n guine in expecting any of those fool
,raiion ngcess. The power Of revising these |
-o ~ SalsttutioDs is reserved, ID IS true, but
'Iison, % not likely to be exercised upon any |
9 y broad or liberal view of the public
g.lfsre. Congress reserved that right
suse it feared the Constitutions would |
bs radical enough; 1t is not likely
object 10 any of them that they are
lovli ". RADICAL or TOO proscriptive.
htge is another fact which is per-
lIGefslly clear and which indicates TIE
on Congress is likely to take Tie |
