The "manhood" Or Universal

! suffrage pariy, lliat is the radioals who procfaim that the Southerii States shall not resume their anti-war relations to the General Government untiithey admit to fuü citizeoship, with all the political franchise., including tbat of &uffVage, the millioDs of emancipated, fgnorant, and half barbaroua oegroes, do not raake great headway in enfranchising their pets in the Nortbern States. Connecticut led off in repudiating the constitutional amendment, and assigned the negro to back seals yet another while, and most souDdlv has alie been berated íor so doiiig, by radical writere and speakers. Tho fishmongers' dialect las beeo exhauated to fïrd epitheta enough to bestow upon those oí ber citizens who dared to vote flgainst roceivng the negro inte full political communon, in the hopo, wo uppose, of intmidating " shaky " Republicans in otber Statea. Aud nffw Wisconsin and Minnesota aave íollowed Buit. In both of those States, amendtnente strikiog the word 'white" from the artieles of their constitutions defining the qualifications of elector, were submitted at the late election. Wiscoosin gave some 7,000 maority for the Ilepublican State ticket, but about 10,000 majority against the aroendinent, showing a little good sense lelt vet amonff the Republicana of that State. Minnesota, also, gave a decided uiajority for the Ropublican candidates for office, and just as decided a majority against negro suffrage. ín New York the Republicana dared not take ground in favor of negro suffrage, &o3 in Ohior a fortnight earlier, the Kepublioan candidato íor Gorernor repudiated botk negro su&rage and negroequality. In face of such unmislakable utterances in the North against converting the universal negro race into electora, it reraains to be seon whether Congress will attempt to keep the Southern States out of the Senate and House until they make electors of their late slaveo, and give into their hands the control of the State governments. Congress has noth ingto do with determioing the qualificationa of eleetors in tbe several States, but as the radicáis know no law higher than their own desires, will their desires be moderated by the deliberately espressed opinions of the Northern States whiol have voted on the question? Or i law to be respected in the North, and S the radical wíll bid defiímca to law in the South ? We shall soon see. JL3L=' The telegraph again oracularly asserts that " McPuekson will not enter the ñames of those elected to Congrega by the late rebel States on the roll of the next House," which announcement gives the radioals great eatisfaction. - Now it is the duty of Mr. McPiirrson, as Clerk of the last House, to enter on the rolla prior to the convening of Congress on the firat Monday of December next, the names of' all persons elaimiug seats, whose credentialg set forth that tbey havo been regularly elected undor the laws of their several States. Mr. McPiierson is not to know, ns Clerk, thatthis, that, or the other State has been engaged in rebellion and is not entitled to represe ntation in the House. The broad seal of South Carolina) Georgia, Tennesseo, or Louisiana, is just as mach ïvidence to him of the legal election of a olaimant for a seat, as is the broad seal of MichigaD, Maesachuetts, Minnesota, or Orogon. The certifícate in due form is his evidence, nd the House- not the es-Clerk - can alone go back of the certifioate. Mr. McPhekson is not the court of last resort, to determine that a State had a right to secede from the Union, that it did secede from the Union, and that it bas boen and is now oat of the Union, Tuis war has been fought against tbe right of eoession, and to ackoowledge tho right, McPiieuson must proclaim the ttar a fa il ure, and that in a worsc sense than did the Chicago Conventioo. Let Mr. McPiierson obey the law, and then let the House, at the proper time, inquire into and decide upon the elaction of, return, and qualifications of its membera. This is a grave judicial question - especially if its deteiniination is to di clare tbat the State had a right to secede, and that the war has been from tho first waged on false pretenses - and not a mere clerical one. L3L At the special election held in Jackson County, on Tuesday of last week, a majority of about 200 wasgiven against the proposed loan of' $100,000 to the Grand River Valley Railroad Company. Jackson city gave over one thousand majority for the loan, but the towns in the Eastern, Southern, and Western pnrtiou of the couuty, away from tho line of the road, " could'nt see it " for ther benefit. The Jacksonites now go in for a city loan. 8@ The churoh of Dr. Tyng, New York City, was destroyed by fire on Tuesday afternoon. Loss estimated at 0300,000, and insurance for only $70,000. JL3L" On Saturday last. the Suprema 3ourt rendered a decisión in an appeal case from Jackson County, in which Judgo Lawiienoe had diesolved an inuiiction isiued by tho Circuit Court '■ Commissiontr, rcstaining tbe townSbip Board of the township of Napoleon Froui levying a tax under tho lasv of the ' lust Legislatura authorizing the rcfunding of bounty subsoriptiona. The Court held ; lst. That as tbe act of 1863 requires only a notice of sis days for the township meeting for thia purpose, the general s-tatutes fixing a different time aro pro tanto supersed-ed. 2ud. ïhat it was not the design of this act to próvido for advances made by individuáis aeting in a private ca pa city on their own betalf. 3rd. That a Court of Ghancery will not interiore to restrain the preliuii nary proceedings to raiwe a tax, befóse ;the ley ïras been made, at the instance of an individual on bis private behalf, for special diimages apprehendud to himself parsonally. 4th. That equity will uot interiore at the instance of a private citizén on behalf of hs public interest as one of a commnnity, to enjoin the official aets of public officers in levying aucb tax, but re dresa must be sought in soine other way. The d'emurrer was properly sastained, and the d aereo must bo affirmed vvith costs L2L The ex-rebel Gen. Wade Hampton, of cavalry notorioty, 'öaving been ropotted elccted Goveruor of South Carolina, the radicáis pitcbcd into him without mercy, aired his treason, proclaimed that he had Dot been pardoned, and averred that he could'nt take the test oath, and was, therefore, ineligible, - He was contrasted with his opponent, Hon. Jas. L. Orr, and to make Hampton's charaoter the bladeer, Our, though au l; original" seceasionist, was lauded as a " model " uuion man, and his defeat charged to con6rmed rebels. - Whereupon the President's pulicy of roconstructioo was more bitterly denounoed than ever. It turning out, howevor, tbat Oru, and not Hampton, is eleuted, tbe radical guns are reversed immediately and Hampton isnow the saint and Orr the sinner. Verily, ye radicáis are hard to piense. ii - ii ■ - E1F The Suprema Court rendered a decisión on Monday, in a caso made be tween Wm. A. Moorb, Esq , eleottd Recorder of the city of Detroit at the recent charter election, and Judge Wrrn erell, who holds the office by appointment of the Common Council. The Court held that an election for Kecorder to fill vacancy could not be held without due notice, that notice had not been given, that the electijn of Mooke was therefore void, and that Witiierbll is entitled to discharge the duties of the office and to receive the emolumenta ■ thcreof, until an election shall be legally held. The Court did not decide whether it was competent or not for the Council to order an election. Judg Martin dissented, and held that tb.6 people could tako cognizance of a vacan oy, and fill it at a regular election with out order or notice, and that an ap pointee of the Council could not hok the office after the people had exorcisec euch right.

A boy and girl saw a raa answering his description juuip from th bont, and picked up his hat, which ha been recoguized by TiiuRtow Weed a that of Mr. Kino. The' tile was goin out, and the body was probably floatec out to sea. Mr. King's friends aasert that fo some time his spirits have been unusua ly deprepsed, in consequence of su{ posed troubles in the Custom House and of late a friend had occupied hi room with him at the Astor House, anc kept watch over him. Mr. King has long been a prominen politician in New York, and has scrvec in both houses of Congress. ui m in tdp A Washington telegram eay that the President has appointed Gen John Á. Logan, of Illinois, Minister and Col.' W. A. Browning, of Tennessee Secretary of Legation to the Republi of Mexico. Tuis action will hardly giv satisfaction to Louis Napoleon or hi protege, Maximilian I., Emperor of Mex ico. Unless there is more truth in th rumora from abroad that the Frene troops are to abandon Mexico, than w have siipposod, the French Minióte at Washington may demand his pass ports. JE3T" Gov. Morton, in hia reeen message to the Indiana Legislatura, con vened in extra session, endorsed the re construction policy of the President, anc distinctly said that, he " did not consicle negro suñrage a condition precedent" t the re-establishmont of the Union of a the States.
