WHAT RADICAL RECONSTRUCTION
-a.-H MEANS I-

ten. wade Hampton made a speech
at the ratification meeting in New York
on the evening of the 9th inst, and he
is reported to have said in the course Of
his speech:
"In the Legislature Of South Carolina,
composed of one hundred and ffty-six
members-of that Legislature from whose
halls used to 60 as high intellects as ever
came to the balls Of Congress-of those one
hundred aud ffty-six members there are
nearly, if not quite, now one hundred ne
groes. Kisses, and cries of "Shame."
From these negroes, and all Of that Legis-
lature, the whole taxes that they are liable
to pay, amount to seven hundred dollars.
l"Oh, oh" and laughs OF that about
five hundred dollars have been paid by
one Of the Conservative members, and OF
the two hundred dollars that are to be paid
by negroes and carpet-baggers, half Of II Is
under execution. Applause aud laughter
We'll, that Legislature composed in that
way, has the right to impose levy or tax
on South Carolina to the amount OF $lO,-
100000. Laughter. Now, gentlemen,
if that state of things goes on, what. will be
abe resnltg Why, you know that it means
that ia a few years from this time there
will not be white man, woman or child
| ia the State, [Cries Of shame i only
mention that as Que Of the Southern otates.
Ii is nuethat it Is perhaps in worse con-
diiiOn than the most of the othels, bot they
are all afflicted by that fearful calamity
that is hanging oVsr us, and We can have
no relief unless the Democratic party will
come out and pledge itself that We shall
have q fair election; that the people OF the
South shall vote. want you all to regis
ter an oath that when they do vote that
| their vote shall be counted, and if there ID a
majority of white votes that you will place
| Seymour and Blair in the White House IN
spite Of all the bayonets that shall be
brought against him."
This gentleman has watched the pro-
| gress of Reconstruction" with no little
solicitude, and his testimony as to the
result so far is of the highest Importance.
1t is very clear that the object of the
Radicals has been to constitute the ne
gro the ruling class in the South, and
they have succeeded so far through the
| bad faith of men born and raised in the
South The coming Presidential election
/ will determine whether the Southern
States are to be converted into negro pro
vinces, as Hayti and st Domingo, OF
whether these States are for white mel
and to be ruled by white men.

We should like to give the readers OF
this paper some idea of the enthusiasm
which has been kindled among the peo-
pie by the nomination of Seymour and
Blair. as exhibited in the ratification
meetings which have been held and are
still being held ali over the country, bat
to make simple record Of these demon
STATIONS would occupy more space day
by day than we could spare. There is a
general uprising of the people, such as
has greeted no candidate for President
not even Gen. Harrison. These spon-
taneous demonstrations are the heartfelt
offerings of the people to noble and
patriotic leader They are the earnest
of determination on the part Of the peo-
ple to wrest the government from the
corrupt party which has driven the cOun-
try to the verge of ruin. It is a striking
evidence of the popularity of the Demo-
cratic ticket that it has excited more real
enthusiasm in the few days it has been
before the country, than has the Radi-
cal ticket in the six weeks since it was
| put forward. 1t is such a ticket as to in
spire in the masses Of the people conf
denee Of victory, and they have gone into
