on hearing bis answer said;
very well: we may as well go
there too. We we're thinking Of the

Rupert was extremely veXed, but
had no excuse to give for making
any change. Mrs. GaisfOrd made q
movement, as if to turn to her hus-
band to make an objection; but she
did not do so, remained looking out
of the window.-She certainly, Rup-
ert thought, had grown harder and
colder than before. When the train
stopped, he was the first to alight,
and helped the ladies with their
sbawls. As he did so, he could not
help saying to Mrs. Gaisford:
we are to meet, it seems, in rail
way-carriages. This has been rather
different ride from our last, Mrs.
Gaisford.'
She had grown paler again as he
spoke, with a cold, naughty look up
on her face; but as he finished she
gave little start, and then the col

In another moment her husband
joined her, and they parted, not to
meet again till the table dhote din

had thought at first Of leaving at
once; but then he told himself that
she would look upon it as another
triumph, and he resolved to remain,
let it cost what it would. He pur-

The Chapter Ended,

Georgia has ratified the fifteenth amend
ment and completed the number of States
necessary to make It part Of the Constitution
of the United States. This is the last of the
questions which, were given to the country by
the war, and its adoption concludes all con
tentions as to the civil and political status Of
tho negro. This ISSUE has hitherto bound
together the r,dical part It must now seek
new principle Of, unio-. The negro has
served its purpose to the end He has boon
made a freeman, then a citizen, and voter in
the South, and lastly, has been invested with
all the rights Of a citizen Of the United States.
iicro the chapter ends. His disappearance
as an element in politics will necessitate the
formation of new combinations upon new and
different topics. Social equality will not do.
Ihe radical party cannot succeed against ma.
ture. Society has always prescribed its own
laws, and any attempt to defeat this power
must end in disaster. In,vicw of this we
havo. much to hope for, and much to encour.
age us. The fanatical zeal with which tho
radicals have pressed the claims of the negro
against tile opposition of the South, has turn
ed public attention away from financial and
other important matters. Here now we ca
rest and review the situation. Every practi
Gal issue of the radical party has matured in
success, and the fruits are before the county
The States have been made ciphers, the gen
eral government having usurped all power
not delegated to it. The judiciary has been
restricted in its powers to suit corrupt Con.
gress. Intelligence aud morality have been
disfranchised in the South, and ignorance
enfranchised. Assessors and collectors cut
up the substance Of the citizen without di.
minishing the public debt. Political dcform
lty, corruption and extravaganza exist on all
sides. When the mist and fogs Of negroism
disipate, and the people get a clear view Of
the field of radical (mis)rulc, covered with
debris of liberty, there is hope for the Dem.
ocratic party.
