THE South ON HER LEGs.-Ok Cheering
Sigss Of Incorporation Perhaps the best
evidence of the sure and rapid material
progress Of the South may be found IN the
fact that the price of the bonds of the DIFF

York Savings Bank, who are proverbially
conservative, cautious and sagacioas, have
lately bought largely these State bonds =
The Southern people themselves are also
adding considerably to their investments
in these bonds Other cheering signs Of
the energy with which the representative
powers of the South are awakening may
be found in tho great cotton crop, e3tima.

PROSPECT OF THE NEGRO SUFFRAGE
Louisville Journal says
that there is hope that this amendment
will be defeated in the Senate, which il
more radically negroish, if possible. than
the House, but we think It improbable that
it will be confirmed by three-fourths Of
the State Legislatures. In the present
state of public sentiment In the West it d
not probable that the amendment will be
accepted by Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Nichi.
gan or Wisconsin certainly not by ma.
jority of them, while the Pacific States
will reject it on the ground that it not on.

but few, but Chinese and other Asiatics Of
whom they have . great many.

force negro equality by change of the
Constitution itself, viii be the last straw
necessary to break the back Of the infa
nous Jacobin party, which has already
brought upon the country such incalcula
BILE misery; and that the people will once

RADICAL INsINCERIrY AND FAITHLESSNESS.
"Mack" the Washington correspondent
of the Citizen Enquirer, writes as follows,
in his letter dated the 9Th:
You will search in vain through the his
tory of parties and politics to find paral-
lei for the bad faith with which the Radi-
calls keep the agreements they make with
the people who elect them to Office. Two
years ago they got into Office on the plat
form Of the fourteenth amendment as ba-
sis of reconstruction. No sooner had they
met in Congress than they repudiated this,
following the lead of Ihad Stevens, whom
I once heard say of this amendment in
private conversation. III is q good thing
to electioneer on, but not worth d-n to
reconstruct WITH" and adopted negro suf-
frage under the military reconstruction
laws. The people OF the North indorsed
this however because in that spirit of fra
ternal love, which ia the foundation Of
union, they don't care what is done to any
section. provided they themselves are not
the losers. Now comes breach Of faith
which does affect the Northern States.
The Chicago platform, upon which General
Grant was elected, declares second reso
lution) 1.-THE guarantee BY Congress Of
equal suffrage TO all loyal men Of the South
was demanded by every consideration of
public safety, of gratitude and Of Justice,
and must be maintained; while the ques-
ton 81 suffrage in all the loyal States prcp-
erly belongs to the people Of those States"
Now comes the proposed constitu-
tional amendment, which takes the
control of suffrage Gin the loyal States"
directly away from "the people Of
those States" 1t is nonsense to say that
by submitting it for ratification you
leave it to the people to determine
upon it. Else why ID it that tho Ohio
Legislature may reject it and the pe0-
pie of Ohio may reject-and yet it may
be forced upon Ohio andsher people by
the Legislatures of tho CARPET bag
Governmentof the South, and the New
England States. Surely, nobody will
call that "leaving it to the people of
Ohio to determine for themselves"
when, though they vote it down by a
hundred thousand, it may be made the
supreme Inv of the lind against this
overwhelming negative. The Ian
guage of the Chicago platform admits
of 10 other construction than that suf-
is a State right to be left to each State
for decision-tliat if Ohio wants negro
suffrage her people shall vote it into
their constitutional she does not want
it, as she recently declared, neither
Congress nor the other States have the
right to interfere against her will.
