MISSISSIPPI ae we are to con-
slider Mississi ppi as having voted against
the Radicals, we have very strong ground
for hope in the apprehensions INDUCED by
the New York Tribune. That paper of
Tuesday claimed Mississippi by reason Of
the registered majority of colored votes -;
[what impudence, when in the States which
have white majorities the whites are not
permitted to rule ] but, nettled by fore-
Swallowed defeat, it Indignantly asks "How
"then can she be carried for party which
"regards q majority Of her voters as nc
"better than brutes2" 1t answers, By
terrorism and fraud" We felt great conso.
lation from this. The Tribune represents
the party holding the game in its own
hands, having control Of the ballot-boxes
and the opportunity to stuff them, and,
furthermore, exercising the power Of strik-
ing off voters and Of admitting them, just as
it pleases. How strong must have been the
indication of the popular will adverse to
this controlling power when it was feared
that INSCRIPTIONS as it is, with al the ma
chinery and the game entirely in its hands,
it would be defeateds When swindlers and
rogues cry out fraud" there is fair rea-
son to conclude that the day has gone
against them.

AMUSING BLUNDERs.-Our townsman MIR.
JOHN H. GILMER wrote o letter recently to
the New York World favoring the nomina-
ton of Chief Justice CHASE to the Presi-
dency. The World commended it as the
production of a former member of Congress
from North Carolina John A. GILMER, now
dead), at present residing in Richmond.
Discovering it's error, the World undertakes
to correct it thus: ," Now that we recall
"who he is, we recollect to have published
"last fall strong and able protest by en-
" Governor Ghner against the illegal pro-
"ceedings of General SCHoFIELD in con-
"nection with the Virginia election" Ex-
Governor THOMAS W. GIIMER, Of this State,
was killed on board the Princeton by the
explosion of the great gun Peace-maker.
Governor G. was then Secretary of War
under Mr.. TYLER. The writer of the letter
to the World is Mr.. JOHN HARMER G1LMER,
brother of the late Governor. The WorlPS
mistakes on this matter Of name are as nu-
merous as it's plumbers about Judge CHASE
as the Democratic nominee.

The WHIsKEY TAx.-The debate on the
whiskey tax on Tuesday showed strong
anti-ring feeling. The motion to fix the tax
at fifty cents was made by Mr.. VAN WICK,
who pitched into the ring with great vim.
He declared that the ring chad stalked
through the anti-chambers of that hall,
through the corridors Of the Senate, and
controlled the avenues to the Executive
mansion.'' He further declared that 1t
de6ed the power of the Government"
AS low as twenty cents was proposed
All seemed to concur in the idea that the
only way to break down the ring was to
make the tax too small for them. THAD.
STEVENS favored the smaller tax; but said
it was not important. AT dollar gallon
only half the tax could be collected, and
at fifty cents only fourth. Finally fifty
cents was carried by 81 to 81. The bill was
further considered, and good many sections
adopted. Much dispute arose on the ques-
ton of collecting the tax at the distillery,
and allowing drawback on whiskey ex-
ported. This was not voted on when the
House adjourned.

The New York Convention.

From the indications that appear IN all
quarters in the northern and western States,
VIC do not think the democracy"
through it's representatives in New York.
will employ any timid and time-serving
policy. They will mark out line widely
distinct from the policy of the revolutionary
Radical party. Even supposing that the
Democrats had not the political sagacity to
See that this broad distinction between
themselves and the party they oppose is
necessary to success, they would naturally
be forced into taking that position from an
adherence Of the destructive measures OF
Radicalism.
So We have strong conviction that the
New York Convention will not turn out
such a piece of work as will repress the
sympathies of the South and throw 1t back
into a state of Indifference with regard to
the Presidential game.

Mississippi.

. o. 500
g Should this State really have voted against
yRadicalism--rejccting the fraudulent eon-
stitution and electing Democratic Legls-
laturc-it will be matter Of rejoicing for
the Democrats and the South. Nothing
could at this juncture more depress the
spirits of the Radicals OF more perplex
their fraudulent and detestable reconstruc-
ton. The Democratic triumph in the Lee
gislature will be matter Of especial ad-
vantage. We're the Constitution rejected,
and Radical Legislature elected, Con-
gress would repeat its action on the
question of bringing in Alabama, and
force Mississippi to take the Constitu-
ton. But Democratic Legislature will be
a horse of different color. Congress will
by no means desire it to assemble. The
question will be: What shall be. done
Shall Mississippi be left where she is, to
become wedge to split reconstruction and
facilitate the remission of all the States
back 10 their original position after the
war?
But the worst blow to Radicalism is what
Radicals will call the treachery" of the
negro. Reliance in him will be shaken
fatally shaken. There will be no excus:
for him in the Radical heart, such as hit
exhausted patience-worn out with the ever
frightening line of reconstruction, which
has destroyed the energy, enterprise anc
prosperity of the South, and left the negro
the suffering representative Of the destitu
ton that has ensued. He is not remarka'
BILE for patience, and soon breaks down un'
der the discouragment of hope deferred.
The Democrats will be greatly cheered BY
the Mississippi tornado. 1t will give conf
dence and boldness to the platform to be
adopted at New York, and kill off the ad
vocates of the smother-up-everything and
the Observation-Disclosures
wrong-it-maybe policy.
Let us not be positive about Mississippi,
however. We should remember who holds
the ballot boxes and who counts the votes
There is no certainty until the result is
officially stated.

The Removal of Disabilities

The scheme of the Radicals to make
the removal of disabilities the reward Tor
partisan servility is one Of the most out
raceous of their numerous crimes against
the Constitution and individual rights.
Freedom of opinion" is guaranteed IN
all the constitutions, State and Federal, yet
Radicals reward men for entertaining Ra-
,lical opinions, and punish those who reject
those opinions. ...
This Radical scheme is like all that the
party in power have invented to prolong
their possession of the Government. 1t is
so outrageous and shameless in it's injus-
tice and dishonesty that it must recoil
upon its authors and defeat their purpose
in resorting to it. Every man who con-
SCENTS to acquire rights denied to his fellow
citizens who are as loyal as he is, by sha-
ping his opinions to suit the party confer
ring those rights, will, from the day he does
that thing, be marked man. His mora
influence will be at an end, and he will be
an injury rather than an advantage to the
party to which, he adheres. The people
who are excluded from privileges by such
test will be honored in their exclusion
And they will be probably all the sooner
vindicated and put in possession of thell
rights because of the extremity of the out
rage inflicted upon them.
The predominant party have introduced
into the constituent body an element which
fails to meet the requirements Of the Con
stitution. That instrument calls for the
election of the representatives from the
body of the electors; and as there is mo-
capacity in the body to furnish the repre-
sentativeg to administer the Government
these Radicals stand convicted before the
Constitution of gross outrage upon the
State, by which they diminish its standing
and impair its safety. They attempt tt
remedy this evil by removing disabilities
from the competent class aotich they had dis.
.tranchised. And how do they do this By
bargain and sale. By hestowing Office and
votes on those who will become Radicals by
turning against their own people.
How party capable of such wrong and
corruption can long hold power we cannot
see. Either they must soon be swept from the
earth by the storm Of public censure, or
the whole country is depraved and ready
for the tyranny which is always prepared
for degraded people. es.SA -,''sS
