The Radicals alli-oyer the country
went into ecstacies over the result1of
the late election in Iowa, which re-
suited in striking the word 1" white
out of the Constitution, and confer
ring upon the negroes. of that State all
the privileges enjoyed by the white
people. An Iowa exchange relates
the following circnmstances,a going to
show the heartless hypocrisy of those
advocates of negro equality:o mrs bnA
HThe Democratic Sheriff of Wa
pello county, while the District Court
was in session, Judge Tannehill pre-
siding, summoned a negro to sit on
jury, as he had a lawful. right to do, as
well as the negro to sit on the jury
But when the negro was about to take
his Seat in the jury box, according to
law, Judge Tannehill, with wave Of
His hand, ordered the negro to leave,
and directed the Sheriff to summon
another man IN his place. Nov Judge
Tannel1ilf is a Radical, and was elected
by the Radical party, and in ordering
the negro off the Jury on his own mo-
ton, not only set at defiance the law
of our State, but exhibited contempt
for the negro race. That radical Judge
wants reconstructing by the radical
party very badly" % ifi'i ''..ii- I. g iifl

The Leea-lTender Act.

The people have been anziously
looking for the decision of the Su-
preme court on the constitutionality
of the Legal Tender act, which it was
supposed would de rendered about
the 18th inst, but as yet no decision
has been announce. Rumors at the
capital now concur in representing
four of the eight Supreme Justices,
GREER, DAVIS, SwAYNE and MILLER
asfavoring o decision for the constitu-
tionalitY of the Legal-Tender acts,
and Messrs. FIELD, CLIFFORD and
NELSON against it, with Judge CHASE
ssbelieved" to side with the majority.
His vote the other way would divide
the Court evenly and leave the present
question undisturbed. But the i'm
preston has beGomd general, in quar-
ters the best informed, that the. act
will be sustained by clear maj ority
of the Court. t3

The Washington correspondent of
the Cleveland Plain Dealer says:
"The Reconstruction Committee are
taking testimony as to the propfiety
of forcing the rejected Constitution
upon the people of Mississippi. What
a saving of time and money it would
have been if Congress had furnished
that and other Southern States with
feady-made constitutions, instead of
going through the farce Of holding
conventions for that,purpose, and then
after their rejection force them upon
the people. General Gillem testifes
that it would be an outrage to force
the rejected constitution upon Missis-
sippi, as a large majority of the in
habitants, white and black, were OPP
posed to it. A "niggern sent on by ~
the Radical State Committee, testified
the other side of the question. and of
course his testimony will outweigh
that of q dozen, white men. !" % q -

tor, the Committee have decided not

"By the operation of our present
system of finance. however, the me-
| talic currency, when collected, is re-
served only for ene. class of Govern
ment creditors, who holding its bonds
semi-annually receive their interest in
coin from the national treasury There
is no reason which VIII be accepted as
satisfactory by the peopIey why those

scars and wounds received while in

rious departments of the Government !:
the farmer who supplies the soldiers

Wy, the artiZall who tolls in the nations

borers who build its edifces and con-
struct its forts and vessels of war
should, in payment of their Just and
hard earned dues, receive depreciatedi
paper, while another, class of, their
coHntrymen, no mere deserving, are
paid in coin of gold and silver.
AS remedy for this manifest wrong.
Senator Morton, Horace Greeley, and
others in the interest Of the Bondhoid-
ers, each has his plan of returning to
specie payments, BY which they assert
that there will be one currency-spe-
cie-for all. But there can. be no re-
turn to specie payments without ma
terial reduction in the amount of the
currency, while the interest bearing
debt of the nation and the taxes re-
quired to carry on the Government
win remain undiminished. The re-
suit of this policy would be to enhance
the value of the bonds purchased in
deprecated currency 80 to 40 per cent.
to a gold standard, and TO depreciate
the price OF labor, and of all kinds Of
property to the same extent as the vol
ume of the currency is. reduced, All
these financial schemes might be ap-
propriately called plans for the enrich
ment of the favored few and the. OBJ
preston of the toiling, producing mass
es. The legislation proposed by these
currency tinkerers, is of the same class
advocated in all time past, by the OPP
ponents Of the Democracy, by which
the producing classes of this, country
have been made subservient to the in
terests of the money power. There
are bnt two roads out of the difficult
ties which surround the country and
oppress and weigh down the energies
Of the wealth producing people. The
one is the, Pendleton plan Of paying.
the bondholder, the farmer, the sailor,
the, soldier and all others in green
backs; the other is for Congress to-
pass an act of National bankruptcy,
forever absolying itself from con-
tract which the party holding the ma
tional bonds themselves repudiate.

question whether the general amnesty

Accdt dane with law, for the reason,
That as there had been no Sen4ietioa.
there could be no pardon. The Presi-
dent claims the power under the Con-
stitution, and the Supreme Court has
made the following decision, which
appears to cover the whole ground:
"The Constitution provides that the
President shall have power to grant
pardons tor otfences against the United
States, except iniocases of -impeaeh-

unlimited, with the exception, stated.
