RADICAL DESPERATION.

Our readers will remember that the
telegraph announced on Tuesday that
Mr. Epson introduced into the House the
previous day, a resolution requiring the
Committee on Reconstruction to inquire
into the expediency of authorizing the
Bones-and-Banjo Conventions of the
South to remove all civil officers in the
unreconstructed States, and fill their
places with such as they might select
At the same time Mr. Boutwell, offered an
amendment authorizing the same COM
mittee to inquire into the expediency Of
authorizing Gen Grant to detail officers
Of the army 20 command in these States,
and proposing to consolidate them into
one district under the control of Gen.
Grant The resolution and amendment
were both adopted.
This Is an additional step in the Radi>
cal plan to silence the voice Of the South
ern people at the point of the bayonet,
and to turn them over wholly to military
control 1t lie also intended to deprive
the President of the appointing power
and 50 deprive the constitution of all
force, through Its official upholders and
defenders in those States The object is
clear-to compel those States to vote the
Radical ticket in the Presidential cleo,
ton Of this year With Grant as a can
didate, and holding unlimited military
authority all over the South, they have
no doubt but that be would control their
votes to suit himself This is substan.
tally admitted to be the present Radical
programme by two organs Of that party.

and the New York Times The former
says:
"The leading idea Of Rsdicalism, amid
the ruin, restitution and starvation that Is
acknowledged, is that, through universal

Of the Freedmen's Bureau and the bear
ings of the reconstruction acts have been
calculated TO impress these untutored peo-
pie with henotion that they may obtain
all they want by asking for It. We are not
impugning the legitimate work of the Bu-
reau. For certain purposes is has doubt
less been valuable, and az q guide rather
than as provider its continuance for some
time longer may be desirable. But the
tendency of its influence has been to en-
courage the freedmen in the delusion that
they may for all time rely upon the gov
eminent instead of trusting to themselves.
The political power conferred upon them
by Congress has served to strengthen this
impression. Both causes combined may
be supposed to have had not little to do
with the generally improbable character
of their last years labor. They did
neither as much nor as well as formerly,
and their prevailing want of thrift ex-
plains the attituded of pauperism which
they exhibit in the cotton growing States.
Its, therefore, Of the utmost importance
that the relief to be afforded this season
shall be used az an auxiliary in disciplining
the freedmen to the steady, faithful labor
which is, with them, the sole alternative of
pauperism. The country, we doubt not,
will cheerfully, and with needful liberality,
proved for their present imminent necessi-
ties, but it is not inclined to maintain them
in laziness or to encourage expectations
which point to shiftlessness and beggary.

must be bro1lgM back in time 10 Uoie' for the
Radical candidate for President. This, let
it be remembered, is the key to the whole
Radical programme Of reconstruction. All
there is Of distress and anarchy, ruin and
starvation, results from a determination in
Congress to elect Radical President"
And the Times is fully as expr, which
declares that
" The Radicals are determined, it seems,
not to admit the ten Southern States unless
they are so reconstructed as TO secure their
votes for the Radical candidate; and if
they are re-admitted, Congress will not
count their electoral votes at all, as they
viii certainly be cast for the Democratic
nominee. This struggle has become exclusively
one for party success and it is openly avowed
that measures will be resorted to for the
sake Of victory which MAY PLUNGE THE
COUNTRY AFREsa INTO CIVIL WAR. There
certainly is virtue and strength enough in
the people to save the country from such a
periln

RADICAL Honesty

A little matter connected with The pur-

gigantic swindle. A good deal Of dirty
linen slowed away during that interesting
period has yet 10 be ed.-Nort0ich

OF course there is, bat that can not De
done 90 long az the present party leaders
are kept in power, for it is their interest to
keep that dirty linen slowed away and hid
from the public gaze. The people will
never know Of the villainies practiced
under loyal manipulations, Of the public
robberies in the name Of patriotism, and
Of the millions of bonds and coupons
frandulently issued from the genuine plates
until a Congress shall be elected that will
not be AFRAID to make the exposure.-Cin-

A Radical View of the Duty of Con
Rress-The Lesson TO be Taught the
NeRrOes-WhOIesOme Advice from am
Unexpected Source.
From the New York Times, 9th inst.
Were the question simply one of relief,
it would be only necessary to determine
the precise nature and extent of the emer-
gency, and the best means of rendering
whatever relief might be required These
points come mp now, and will have to be
settled when Congress enters upon the
question practically. But they are not
unlikely to be encountered with extraneous
issues. Politics will invade the domain of
philanthropy. Partisan contingencies will
make themselves felt where prudent charity
alone should rule. The question will be
invested with "loyal and with "Rebel0
aspects. just as aid toward rebuilding the
levees of Louisiana and Mississippi was
frustrated by politicians on the ground
that these States we're not up to the Radi.
cal standard in respect of loyalty, so we
expect to hear Of ali manner of reserya-
tons and proyisos designed to prevent
Rebel advantages" in the distribution of
help. Destitute blacks will, Of course, in
these conditions outrank the destitute
whites. And there will be a strong effort
to defeat propositions for utilizing resident
SoUtherners in any plan of assistance for
the planters. The possible complexion of
impending elections, and the possible need
of all the appliances which Congress may
command TO secure reconstruction in time
for the Presidential vote, are matters which
will not be overlooked when any scheme
Of relief invites decision.
Nothing IS more certain, however,
than the mischief which any further at,
tempis 10 make pets Of the freedmen will
involve. The nation did owe a great deal
TO them, we admit. IL assumed tempo
rary guardianship over them when it de-
prived them Of the care and direction
which were incident to slavery. But the
obligation is not perpetual except in rela-
ton TO their rights Civil equality they
were entitled to; political equality they
have got; and they may also claim pro-
lection against starvation pending the or
ganization of the new system of labor.
They are not for this reason TO be encour-
aged in the belief that they are permanent
pensioners upon the nations bounty-as
many of them have been led TO conclude. |
And it is against this error that Congress !
should carefully guard. The opportunity |
should not be lost for teaching the freed |
men that emancipation was not the prelude !
to a gigantic system Of pauperism, or to |
any system Of protection 10 reference either |
to the conditions or rewards Of labor.
