Nom fuIGIImemd of the Radical
Pledge of Amnesty.

Reports from Washington confirm the
belief that the scheme of general amnesty,
has been indefinitely postponed. 1t was
upon the promise that its speedy adoption
would follow reconstruction under Radi-
cal manipulation, that numbers of weak
kneed men in the late canvass succumbed
to the Radical party whose persistent and
merciless persecution of the white people
of the South had entitled itself to their
undying hatred. Its previous history had
not single redeeming feature. Its
career was a record of unparalleled atroc-
ity in the treatment of these people. 1t
had substituted martial, law which was
simply the will of military commanders,
for civil law. 1t had suspended the
privilege of Habeas Corpus in order that
citizens illegally arrested, might anguish
and die in their prisOn-pens. 1t had
substituted trials before military commits
sions which were organized expressly to
convict, for the sacred right of trial by
II
unprincipled adventures among them to
rob Industry of its dues. But said the
Weakened, let us bow before the males
ty of its power, swear by its great name
elect Alcorn-elect Radical Legisla-
ture-send Mongrel representation to
Congress you will be recompensed
by real Balm in Gilead. Healing will
come on the wings of the wind in the
shape of Universal Amnesty. Well,
what is the answer now? 1t is contained
in the following Washington telegram:
The prospect for the passage of any of the
numerous pending bills providing for the
| general amnesty is very slight. The COM
| mittees in each house, having charge of the
| subject, have bills prepared, but the feeling
| in Congress against making it a general law
! render it very probable that it will go over
! to the next session. Prominent representa-
| tives in the North and in the border States
| seem to have taken an interest against it
since the recent debate ia the Senate. Let
| tiers to Senators from Kentucky state that if
a general amnesty act is passed, John G..
Breckenridge will certainly succeed Garrett
! Davis in the Senate in 1873.
There is danger, quoth these fellows,
if the Southern people are unshackled
they will send to Congress the true repre-
sentatives of their views and wishes.
Kentucky viii send Breckenridge to the
u. S. Senate" Very likely she 1oould
call her favorite son once more to champi-
on her cause, in the national councils.
She loves him as only a mother can love a
favorite son. But if be this a republican
government, have not the people a right
to make choice of their own agents 1t
comes to this therefore that the people Of
the South are to be relieved of odious
test oath burthens when they will consent
to elect to office none but the servile tools
of the Radical party.

A Republican Leader Putting me
ssSociaI Equality" doctrines OF ,
his party into practices.

The visit of a prominent white RePub-
liean Senator, so-calIed, to the Hall of
Representatives where Republican fash
ion and intellect most do congregate, in
company with colored woman, is mi
nuteIy described by our reporter. The
affair warrants public mention for the rea-
son that it is an illustration by high Re
publican authority of the doctrines en-
bodied in the proposed laws OF the pres
ent Legislature, in which the people OF
the commonwealth are all Interested
According to this report an extraordina-
ry sensation was manufactured out Of
this occurrence. Even Radicals were inn
patient when their brother held the mir
ror of their own measures, up to nature.
Why all this affectation of amazement
and disgust by the faithful, we cannot
imagine. Morgan has done no more than
openly 10 carry unite practice the doctrines
of social equality which constitute the
basis of their political creed, and which
are embodied in the measures of the
Mongrel Legislature. They will not deny
that the School, Railroad and kindred
bills are all based upon a reputation Of
distinctions of race, and are designed to
stamp them with the condemnation of
Republican craftsmanship, although these
distinctions did emanate from the Crea-
tor of the Universe. Lynch knows tie
meaning and effect of this Legislation,
and is chuckIng over it. Stringer knows
it, and beholding his triumph, over bar
riers which some white demagogues of
whom better things have been expected,
call only mere prejudice after ALL
''grins horribly CHASTITY smile.
Morgan has met the issue squarely. II
his conduct is disgusting, it has at least
the merit of courage. He has done
openly what other Republican leaders are
seeking to accomplish by stealth. He
has notified the public that Republican
doctrines mean the reputation of dis
tinctions of race; and he has not essay
ed to accomplish the innovation upon
the conventionalities of life by the
stealthy method of free lunch, cabin
passage and visits of inspection will
champagne punch sat the Mansion. -
Believing the doctrines of his party to be
right, and scorning indirection, he brave
ly plants himself upon them, (only lit
tie advance of the rest of the Radica
rabble) defiantly exelaiming;
"Come one come all, shis rock shall fly

The Significance Ofthc washing
ton City Election.

The defeat Of the Radicals in the
National Metropolis backed by the all
power of the Administration and its
train-bands, is an event Of no ordinary
significance. 1t shows the extent Of the
revolt of the white population against the
measures Of the Radical leaders to revo-
lutionize human nature and establish
social equality by legislative enactments.
Mayor Bowen, the Radical candidate,
was the prime mover Of the series Of
revolutionary measures ignoring distinc-
tons Of race in the government Of that
city. He it was who insisted upon break
ing up the separate school system-oi
introducing the races into the same pub
lie conyeyanccs-theatres-hotels, DC. ;
and of generally accomplishing the legis-
lative monstrscities that the Mongrels in
the (so-called) Legislature of Mississippi
are reproducing with view to the dcs-
truction of the social system which is
based upon natural laws.
In this view, his defeat, with all the
odds Of Presidential and Congressional
favor to sustain him, is the most impor-
tant fact yet accomplished in the reaction
airy movement. We trust for the sake Of
the public repose, it will give pause to
the Destructives in this State who are
drunk with the transient power which
was given them over our people by
violence and fraud.
A few extracts from Forney's Chroni-
Gle, the Administration organ, will show

What ID all Means.

Since the Northern Democracy, recruit
ed by hosts of Republicans who are dis
gusted with the corruption, proAigacy and
agrarianism of the Radical leaders, are
evidently on rising ground, with every
prospect of rescuing the government from
the grasp of the Destructives, the pFin-
ciples which they intend to carry into the
administration of the country are natur-
ally subjects of anxious inquiry by the
people of the South They have been
more concerned about their own local af-
fairs than anything else; but their desti-
ny is nevertheless deeply involved in the
great revolution whose triumphant pre-
gress is striking terror to the guilty souls
of the Radical leaders. Take the Ohio
Democracy, for instance. It's sufficient
to say that they are opposed to the entire
policy of oppressive taxation enforced by
the party in power, and to its cruel and
cowardly policy of vengeance and bad
faith towards the people of the South
Their platform reiterates the doctrine of
State rights and local self-government by
which the oppressed communities will be
restored to their rightful privileges. 1t
denounces the present tariff and the bill
before Congress as scheme of gigantic
robbery of the people; the present inter
nal revenue taxations as unbearable and
oppressive; the prohigacy of Gen
eral Grants administration and the re-
cent atrocious law passed under pretence
of enforcing the 18th amendment 1t
declares in favor of taxing the national
bonds as other values are taxed; and of
equalizing among all classes the burthens
of government.
This, in brief, is the policy the Re
formers propose to inaugurate in place of
the black Republication, despotism and
proAigacy of the present rulers.
