that one of the first measures that will be intro
duoed into Congress, on its assembling in Decem
Der, will be a constitutional amendment, proyid-
ing for the regulation Of suffrage throughout the
United States. The object is certainly one OF
practical and vital Importance, and no objection
can be urged against this manner Of its settle.
ment bill will 20 through without doubt,
and the Legislatures Of two-thirds of the States
being Republican the amendment will be ratified
and this yexed question settled forever
New York Suns dispatch says:
Gen. Grant says that he will favor constitu.
tionsl amendment making the suffrage question
70 be regulated throughout all the States by Con.
gressional enactment, and making it universal
North as well as South. lie believes il practical
20 carry such an amendment. Ii will be accord
inrgly set In motion as soon as Congress meets,
that the Legislatures which meet in January can
az once ratify it, and that by special session OF
congress next summer the law can be passed in
time for colored men throughout the North Ia
vote at the next fall elections"

"BLACK" GuARDs.-Perhaps nothing so
painfully illustrates tho frightful corruption
and dcbascmcnt Of American manhood, as
the army now guarding tho South. The
iinc display of soldiership in Mexico, the
noble, aspiring and generous esprit du corps
once inculoatcd at West Point, the high toned
sentiment that rendered the American OFF,
Ger bean Mcal Of chivalry and daring, seems
to have utterly perishcd in the late niggcr
war, and the hideous and disgusting spec
tacic is presented TO the world, of American
officers playing guards and lackcys to Mig
gers? II was horrible to SEQ tho un form
Of q Jackson, a Scott aad Mcclellan, worn
by negro servants, but even this is cclipscd
and now West Point men arc guards and
walters to niggers! Heavens and earth |!
where is unnamed and filthy debascmcnt to
end. Are we like Sodom and Gomorrah, des
tined TO be swept from the earth polluted by
our sins.--Day Book.

~ AToENApo NEAR GEouuETowN, S. c.
ono of the most violent winds that ever Wis
'tcd thu: region was experienced on the
Hsack and PcdcG rivers, just above George.
town, between two and three O'Clock, y. m. /,
on Thursday last. 1t apparently first strnck
point ut or near tho plantation Of Dr..
GaIllard and Mr.. Reese Ford ON tho Black
river, doing some injury to buildings at on c
or both of these places, and passing from
there in II vein about five hundred Yards
widr, struck the plantation Of Dr.. Fish :
burnc on Pclcc, whore it demolished thirty
small buildings out Of thirty four, literally
breaking them into fragments, and killing
three and wounling several persons, and do
ing considerable damage to other property
on the place. IN lis course il broke and
tore up trees, in some eases lifting thcm
several hundred feet from the ground and
'cvcling every Object in it's immediate track,
1t was 50 violent and destructive that fur.
thcr reports Of the damage arising from il
may be looked for. Fortunately it took
place when most persons were out of their
houses or more serious loss of life, would,
perhaps, have taken place. Charleston Coz.

GEoRGIA.-Wc fear this fine old Common-
wealth is given over to nrgrO-radical rule.
1t go, it is the infamous consummntion
mainly Of what the great English Radicals
could call very dirty conspiracy. The
Conservatives were obliged to bring ou,
three candidates successfully Judge Reese,
Judge Irwin and Gen Gordon tho two
first having been declared ineligible by
Cen Meade, but not until each had been in
The field some time. 1t can easily be under
stood how such tactics are these would de-
moralizc any party; but only one we'll up
i'll the politics Of tho State can appreciate
the full effect Of such warfare upon the for
tunes of lhc Georgia Conservatives, There
was villainy enough, Heaven knows in the
canvass Of the Radicals-wh and
open bargain, the cor:upt alliance Of ambi-
tions dcmagogucs, the stay law swindle,
and such political Chadbands rs Joe Brown
but after all, We bcieve the Conservatives
were ricked out Of tho election. With any
one Of the three candidates named above,
especially with Judge Irwin, and full time
for Conservative organization and thor
rough canvass, rndicalism would have He'd
the Stale, as of cid cortan domestic animals
ran into tho sea and wcro drowncl.-N. O.

The Harrisburg (Pa.) Telegraph say that
'thc extraordinary increase CT Democratic
newspapers in Pennsylvania during the
past six months is certainly indicative of
and in consonnncc with the grand political
reaction everywhere exhibited at the cltc-
tions." II further says that "now dailics
and wceklies, large, neat, bright, sprghtly
and ably conducted, aro springing up every
where, even in regions hitherto regarded MS
Domocralically barron, and they not only
stick with the toLaciy ofa Stanton to The
Var Office, but thcy talk hopefully. and
prosperity looks benignantly yet boldly out
Of every limo of the print"

+ From ihe Goidsboro Nc,cy.
COLONEL ASHBY.

Sleep OH, sleep on, lamcntcd one,
Thy compccrs mourn for thee:
Thy warning with he foe is done,
Thy gallant spirits free.
Sleep on, sleep on, thy solemn rest,
Rcposc rs time rolls on
The Nor,hmcn tread above thy breast
The cause you loved is gone.
Sleep on, sleep OF, We miss thy tread,
The South winds for thee Sign:
Low in the gronnd among the dead,
You with your veterans lie.
Sleep on, sleep on, amid hc brave,
Who fell Thy form beside,
Your noble Hing has ceased TO wave,
Tho for its folds you died
Sleep on, sleep on, f"r ihcc We weep,
Through hours Of Sndlcnrd gloom,
Within our hearts Wen ever keep
The canse that scaled your doom.
Sleep on, thy name shall Ger be sung.
And loycdin coming ages,
Thy immortal deeds be found unonc
Undyine Iumr',5 bright paGes.
