the ratification of the fifteenth amendment
by the Republican Legislature just chosen.
Two Republican Senators will be chosen; and
the home of the chief of the Rebellion will
now complete gloriously the work of recon-
struction and bring up the topstone of the
free Union with shouts of rejoicing The
Dent papers are loud in their complaints
against General Ames. He has done his duty
under the law, and no more II was the in
tention OF Congress that the whole people,
black and white, in the State, should settle
the conditions on which the new era of self
government should begin. The old slave
holding regime had brought the State, rich as
1T was and is in soil and resources, to bank
ruptcy, and established the reign of anarchy
and bloodshed in all her borders. Now she
will have government which will gain its
just powers from the consent of all classes
governed. Liberty and justice will be no
longer the privilege of a select class, but the
inheritance of all.
This contest could have been ended years
ago but for the tergiversations of Andrew
johnson.
In the spring of 1868, through his infiu-
ence, the blacks we're left without protection,
and the State rejected the constitution they
have now adopted by over seven thousand
votes. The poor blacks then had to struggle
for the radical cause unaided and atone. They
made the best fight in their power, and cast
63, 231 votes for ratification and the radical
ticket against 63, $50 votes cast by the cop
per-rebels. This time General Grant was on
their side, and showed fair play between the
parties. Some blacks were still bullied or
bought into supporting the conservative
ticket, but a considerable sprinkling of
whites, led by Alcorn, voted the radical ticket.
The vote polled is the heaviest ever cast in
the State, and the result insures the ascend
ancy of the Republican party in the State for
a long time to come. This victory we deem
one of great importance, as its effects will be
felt for good in all the future history of our
country.

World.


Contrary to the general expectation, the
World doesn't like the message. 1t says
President Grant makes it too evident that
the preparation of public documents is an
employment in which he is not at home
His manner of writing is feeble and limping,
and the substance and tissue of his ideas
give an appearance of repeating with imper-
feet apprehension views borrowed from
others, rather than the digested results of in
dependent reflection. His long introduction
detains attention without rewarding it, as
the statistical statements and historical re-
cital of which it consists convey no informa-
ton. There is nothing in this part of the
message which every member of Congress
and every reader of the document does not
know as well as the President When we
pass from the porch into the building, we
find it an ill-arranged structure, made up, for
the most part, of materials selected or
abridged from the reports of the heads of the
departments. In point of ability,
this is the weakest message ever sent to Con
gress by an American President"
In remarking on the Treasury report the
World says
Undoubtedly, the most important prelimi-
nary to financial stability, is to get the bulk
of our debt into the hands of permanent in
vestors. Mr.. Boutwell, is of opinion that
this cannot be done without previous con-
version of the five-twenties into new bonds
He opposes any reduction of taxes at this
session of Congress, thinking that an excess
of revenue is necessary for convincing the
| present bondholders of the ability of the
Government to pay them off, and thereby
| produce willingness to exchange the five
| twenties for other securities. This is weak
and self -refuting."

Since the negro at the South has proved
TO be so signal failure as a politician, as a
legislator, and as a free, untrammeled cultivs-
tor of the soil, the question has boen sprung
rs to what shall be done with him. 1t is the
question of the party which adopted him at
the start as its pct and protege. In the field
of politics. where he first tried his newly un-
fettered powers, he did not shine; as a states
man and law-giver, to which profession he
next turned his attention, he achieved little
TO eclipse the fame of Clay and Webster; and
as cotton planter his name will never be
handed down to posterity as thing crowned
with too much of success to perish young
In short, the Freedman's Bureau has utterly
failed to utilize him; and by their efforts to
lift him to the plane of New England civili-
zation, the carpet-bagger and the scalawag
have succeeded only in making him two-fold
moro nuisance than he otherwise would or
could have been
