THE Fifteenth AMENDMENT.

1t may fall to the lot Of Ohio, says the St
Louis Republican, to decide the fate of the
Fifteenth Amendment and the complexion of
its newly chosen Legislature is therefore Il
subject of no little interest. 1t is said and
denied that the Republicans have 4 ma jority
in both Houses, but this majority is SO very
small Us to be precarious, and, as the mem
bers from Hamilton county were elected by
Democratic votes on the Fusion Ticket, it is
far from certain that they will vote for the
measure Twenty eight States required have
have ratified the Amendment Two others,
Mississippi and Texas, will ratifyit because
Congress compcls them to do so rs part of
their reconstruction duties. Iowa, Minneso-
ia, Nebraska, Vermont and Rhode Island
will no doubt ratify ii the coming winter.
This will be twenty-seven. One other State
is needed, and that State must be Ohio or
Georgia---or the Amendment is gone. Geor-
of its way to force it which by the way, Con-
gress is perfectly capable ofdoing.
Congress recognizes the rules Of deccncy
and propriety north Of the Ohio river, if it
does not recognize them south Of that line,
and, therefore, the Ohio Legislature will be
asked to supply the missing vote, before the
Georgia Legislature is forced to supply it.
The whole question has passed beyound the
realm of popular discussion--if indeed, it
was ever fairly in it, and the only matter of
interest now is, how will the twenty-cight
vote he obtained? We do not believe ii can
be obtained in Ohio. The Cincinnati
Commercial admits that one Republican
member, at least from Hamilton county, is
opposed to it. This leaves but one majority
in each branch of the Legislature, even if the
two Senators and four Representatives elected
on the Republican ticket by Democratic votes
and against the attacks and ISLANDERS of the
Gazette and Commercial, all vote for it. This,
we We're assured, will not be the case
The fifty. thousand majority against the direct
issue on negro suffrage two years since must,
of necessity, have its effect on the minds of
members who regard the will of the people
that elected them as entitled to respect.

THE DEFEAT OF JOHNSON.

We don't wonder that the radical papers
are ubilant over the defeat of Andrew John
son, in Tennessee. Nothing Of the kind
could have more terror for them than would
the voice CT that bold and fearless man in the
Senate Chamber of the United States. Had
his election been possible, the next session
would have witnessed Il rare stirring up Of
those matters that the radicals most desire
shall rest in oblivion. The wrongs and out
RACES connected with the administration of
affairs in the South, the arbitrary measures
against personal liberty, the bargaining and
corruption to enrich members of Congress,
and the peculations in the treasury depart
ment-all these he would have made his
speciality to drag to the light. We hope to
see it done by the present democratic Sena-
tors, but the En- President has special knowl-
edge and qualifications for the work.
Andrew johnson was defeated for Senator,
and Mr. Cooper, !; Democrat, elected, by n
singular combination of Radicals W it'll disaf-
tectcd Democrats The Radicals preferred
to elect acknowledgements or not-but the
Ex-Prcsident; and they saw that Johnson
would probably be elected on the next ballot.
So they made a virtue of necessity and voted
for Mr. Cooper.
Because of his popularity with the people,
the Radicals, when they met in Chicago to re-
nominate Abraham Lincoln, thrust Hannibal
Hamlin, the then ce-President, aside and
and ,lo,.faI An, J,bn
That election by the death of Mr.. Lincoln
made johnson President
In his whole Congressional career, An
drew johnson voted, spoke and acted with
the Democratic party. Because he had been
a Democrat and was then II Democrat. the
party that elected Mr. Lincoln President
made Andrew johnson its candidate and
elected him. This, the party leaders did, to
oct Democratic votes. They knew his poll
ties when they nominated him, and if he fol-
lowed the dictates of his judgment and con-
science they had no right to complain, Yet,
because he would not lend himself to their
schemes, in utter violation Of which he, and
every other we'll informed man, believes of
the itlltf ana the Splfll Oh lHc NolSlh'itlpll
they denounced him, while President, and
came within u few votes of the number sue
ccsstully to imprach him of what they called
- high crimes and misdemeanors, which
consisted alone in his refusal to do the bid
ding of Sumner, Wade, Chandler, and others
of the same breed.
Defeated Us a candidate for United States
Senator in Tennessee, by u combination
against him of all the elements that could be
brought to bear, the Radical press is now re-
viving their abuse of Il man they consider
PROSTATE and in the dust
But let us whisper in the ear of these Rad
zeal editors that of all the men in the country,
they will find Andrew Johnson the hardest
to put down. He is a man of lndomtablc
will He has set his heart on going to the
United States Senate, and, before many years
| pass away he will succeed in the object of his
laudable ambition. The curses the Radicals
now heap upon hlm like chickens. will come
| home to roOst.

A RACE FOR LIFE. Sunday afternoon the
Fort Wayne Railroad Company sent a CON
sructon train up the road preparatory to the
commencement of work on Monday morning,
as is the usual custom. The engineer. anX-
ious to make his Sunday work as short as
possible. rushed the train ont of the depot and
around the curve to the bridge at the top of
her speed. Upon arriving at the bridge, how
ever he saw that which causedhim to reverse
the engine and apply the brakes with all his
force A man with his wife and two children
were on the narrow portion of the bridge,
where it is only Just wide enough for train
topass, about midway of its length of six hun
dred feet Neither end could be reached by
the imperiled family before the train would
rush upon them but the father and husband
was equal to the emergency. Catching up
the children in his arms, he told his wife that
he would see to them, and babe her run to-
ward the end of the bridge, until the train
should reach her, and then Jump into the wa
ter She must run for her life, as her safety
depended upon her getting near enough to
the shore to find shallow water before over
taken by the train. She did as he directed,
and when she felt the hot breath of the iron
monster she jumped from the bridge, fortu-
natelY alightlng in not more than two feet of
water and weeds and the train passed her in
safety But what Of the father and little ones?
He could not run with them; and while al
most distracted with fears for his wife's safe
ty, he was bOundt to find some escape for them
Taking the little ones in his arms, he cooly
and steadily, in the face Of the approaching
train, lowered himself with them to brace
beneath the bed timbcrs, and there held them
fast within q few feet of the water, while the
train came laundering over them. About the
time the engine reached the centre of the
bridge the eXertOns of the engineer and
brakeman effected the stoppage of the train /;
and their assistance was rendered to extricate
the frightened family from their yet perlous
position, and they went on their way thank
full for their delivcrance.

ton denounced the Freedmans Bureau, and
