Of such = course. Ii WAS enough, il

~ We copy the following from
tho Louisville Journal:
A radical lately expressed fear
to Horace Greeley that the radical
party will have to swallow General
Grant, II will have tho delirium

The editor Of the New York Tri.
bune publishes the johnson and
Grant correspondence aud refers 10
it editorially, but expresses no opin-
ion in regard to il. With too much
pride and principle to say wha. no

whs, he does.
The New York Herald has an mr..
ticlc on " the necessity Of opening
He'll Gate" Inssmuch as there is u
radical Congress still upon the earth,
the necessity for such an opening il
unquestionsble.

The conservatives Of some Of the
tho Southern States cherish strong
hopes that the constitutions framed
by the radical conventions will be
defeated by the people. But, even
il this result shall take place, it will
in all probability have no effect upon
the determination Of Congress to ex.
scutc ita intentions in regard to the
doomed section. That body will, "

struction law, giving itself the power
to declare the Southcrr constitutions
