Reconstruction in Virginia.

The bill providing for an election in Vlr-
GINA, which has been reported by Senator
Trumbull from the Judiciary Committee, sub
mits the Underwood constitution to vote in
May next, without the distranchisa-
meuts for suffrage and Office. Tho clauses
containing these disqualifcations are to be
voted on separately. 1t looks as if there
would be no time to pass the measure at this
session, and it is almost certain that the mat
ter will so over to the next session. s-l4
6 W hat shape. this matter will ultimately
take, it would be premature now to say; but
it may be hoped, from the known wishes of
the President elect in the premises, that the
decision to be arrived at will be at least as
favorable as the above. That result falls far
short of what it ought to be but it is vastly
better than the infiction of the Underwood
constitution. This result was STAYED off by
the friends OF the new movement. But for
that alternative proposition, and but for the
efforts and arguments Of its friends before
Congress, based on that line, We should be-
You'd all question witness legislation upon the
statute book designed to fix upon the State
the Calling yoke contrived by Judge Under
wood and his followers. This much of mis-
chief has been stayed, and those who have
done this good deserve the best thanks Of the
people of Virginia. sa 'e.i sl,l1q t7sf ses g.

Privilege Of Color.

The Richmond Wig, in speaking of this
Especial privilege" gives Congress rather
severe rap upon the knuckles Wonder if

ance and self-denial had upon the House
but while he was refused the seat to which
he had no shadow of right, he was allowed
$2.5O0-for what :? For waving the privi-
zege Of his coloy9 Well, what is that priv
lege? This is becoming an important and
practical question. Some of the Wendell
Phillips school tell us that the original man
was black, aud that, being made in the image
Of God, God himself was black, and that
consequently the pale faces are degenerates
or, according to the Cincinnati philosopher
not human beings at all We know not the
authority for all this but if true, we had
better take back seats at once, and frankly re-
cognze the privilege of color.

The New Movement.

The Richmond Wing says the fate of the
new amendment proposed to the Constitution
by Congress is considered very doubtful
Though acquiesoed in by two-thirds of Con
gress, it did not have the appreciation of either
House The carpet -baggers from the South
who all voted for it, declare that they will op-
pose it at home, and that their State will re-
fuse to ratify it. The amendment does not
guarantee to negroes the right to hold office, a
fatal defect! There is also serious doub,
whether the right to vote is secured to that
tavorite race. The. franchise shall not be de-
MED to any race or color, says the amendment
Now black being no color-but the absence
OF all color-it is contended that cuaee is
wholly excluded and left out in the cold. A
great many other flaws are already picked in
the amendment, and the general impression
seems to be that coach and four can be driv-
en- through it. co. +' 4" sf ---
