The Radical programme for carrying the
South BY means of the Legislatures choosing
electors has been abandoned, the leading car
pet-baggers refusing to entertain the. PROPOSE
ton after being advised Of the sentiment Of
their States. The truth is, number of these
men affected ultra views to obtain position,
and are now proposing to act with and for the
white population. Several Senators of this
class, and still greater number of Congress-
mea, win be found acting with the Conserya'
tivcs in the next Congress.

with commanders on the best mode Of reducing

is on a mission to perfect means to carry those
States for Grant, but all he can do will not avail
1t is conceded in Washington by Radicals that
the chances for carrying any Of those States ex-
ccpt South Carolina are hopeless If the scheme
to consummate it through the legislatures fail,
and this has been abandoned.

The Negro Cohyention.

IL the negro convention which framed
the thing they called 1.-THE Constitution
of Virgins" should attempt to re assem-
BILE in this city, as Hunnicutt indmates
that they will, it would undeniably be
General Stoneman's duty to dispense
them at the point OF the bsyouet. A sim
liar attempt to usurp powers caused the
New Orleans riots. The Virginia Con-
vention, so.called, died natural death
three msnths ago; and we showed at the
time, from the reconstruction acts them
selves, that il could not be resuscitated.
Its members do not represent the people
Of Virginia. Many Of them are ignorant
negroes, as Lindsey, Hodges, etc; others
are unprincipled scailawsgs, as Hunni-
cut, williamson, etc; others are adven-
turous carpet baggers, as Porter, Maddox,
Thayer, aud Numerous others. But il
is needless 20 designate these classes
By pane. Everybody knows that they
are no more capable Of representing the
real, tax-payiDg. intelligent people Of
Virginia than the pententisry couvicts
are Of representing the honor and hon
es,y Of the State. II was a grievous out
rage upon Virginia, and burning shame
TO Congress, that they were permitted to
assemble here once As constitution
makers. Bat 70 allow them 10 come back,
and again engage in the nefsrious work
Of enrichipg themselves aud impover-
ishinr everybody else-disfranchising
intelligent whites aud enfranchising igno-
rant negroes-choosing Presidential cleo
tors, and casting the vote Of 9 State
which despises them as traitorous scoun-
drels-would be insult added TO injury.
We ask General Sionemon TO keep his
eve upon the movements Of these die.

War Of Races.

The Louisville Courier OF the goth OF
July, says the telegraph brings us the
substance of Brownow's message to the
Tennessee Legislature. It is the most
| 6endish paper that ever issued from the
Governor Of State. A hundred thou
sand white men are disfranchisad and
placed under the brutal dominion of
their late slaves led by Brownlow, him
self, who lives but to hate, insult and
prosecute them. And yet he is not sat-
isfed, but calls for troops with which
to make war upon them, aud asks for au-
thority to hunt them down like wolves,
and shoot them at night He does not
ask for militia, to be used as posse
comitatus, to aid the enforcement of le-
gal process, and bring offenders to trial.
This would not crafty his impish malig.
nifty. BE asks that the negroes OF the
State may be armed and sent out, to act
upon reason or the impulses of their own
savage natures, to select their own VIC

ever they may choose TO do.
If this does not mean war of races,
it is impossible to imagine such thing

mand Of madman? Is it not part of
the Radical programme? Have they not
put Brownlow forward to do this thing in
order TO have q war of races, and to
make pretext for using the whole army
of the United States in the Presidential
election?
Coming at the time it does, when the
Radicals have nominated the General of
the army, and arming the Southern me-
groes, this move of Brownlow's has an
ugly, prcmeditated look about it. 1t is a
move which be would not dare to make
