Thrir abject condition, their, financial ttnbaraument, their political and mil itary demoralization, their shameful abandon-, went by their leaden, their earnest proteita. tiona tf loyalty, their alacrity in revoking the ordiaaooetof scenion all inclined nto lt( htt we were deoelted.

They entered Into the contort a proud, im periov people, with meet nnnunded reaouroei, but' resolved, like Anthony,' drank with the ca resses of hit mistress, on their own or oar tin-1 tteoal deetrootion. iThat oonteat resulted in the deatraotioit of their traditional idola, and -the complete dieeolatton of their aooial ayitem. They emerged from ft crest-fallen, suppliant and impoverished.. They aooepted the decree of the' people for the extinction of slavery. They craved the lileseinjs nf peace. ' They supplicated for pardon for their ofTcnse. Tliey pointed, to their rained cities aud. desolated Dearth-stones, and aaked, like the prodigal ami, to be received again Into the household.

Birr 8DOAR.--A beautiful apecimen of while cryitaliied loaf-tugar, manufactured In llll nni, hat been forwarded to the Commiaaioner of Agriculture, at Washington, and It paraded at something new. Very tuperinr ngar, made from beet, wat exhibited In New York, Penn avlvania. New England and Ohio, more than twtuty yean ago) bat the rxpenta of produc tion wat then found greater than Muacavado and New Orleant tngara, made with cheap tlavt lalior. Free labor. In a ooldt-r olimate, could not oonipete with Negroet, whom it wat considered cheaprtt to wear out In fire yeara, and replace with new Importation from Ooinra and Zanilbar. Prance, however, with a more favorable olimate, cheaper lalior and ample ex perleuoe, baa produced annually many million pound of beet togar, and anlil the Intrmluo lion of the enrgbniu. beet tugar wat one of the chief agricultural produolioui nf that country. The high priort produced by lb war directed Ihe attention of the Northweet to a cheaper material to prmluoe eognr. and tnrghum sup planled the Louisiana cane. The beet would probably have doue it, had ike Chineae oaue naained onknowa.

Tit same remark applies to the Democratic (wrtiea In the Allanlia hialee in JHoll.

Wo do not know that there aro any Radical in Oregon, and hard not referred to any. Our policy it to unite and itrenglhen tho Union or ganization. The Oregonian teom determined to break it np, hy milting distinction here, and by Insidiously circulating the idea that none are reliable hut tlnwe whom It please to term Judical. Wo hnve not referred to any other thnn the f 'nt'on party, with which we would act or encouriigo. Tho vnry article which the Oregonian rofi-rt lo. prove what we aaaort In tpeakiug of National politic, in the article referred to, wo used the term Union party," or "Union organization. M Wo did not tny " there is to be a new national organization," at the Oregonian aatert. It contrive to man ufacture that by garbling a word here and there, according to it usual custom. And al though wa used the term " new national or ganization," w used it at tynnnymoua with and meaning Ilia Union party. We meant no change either in the name or principle of the Uuiun party, but au extcusiou of it organiza tion to tlie Stutoa lately in rebellion, and no thing more. ; The Government will encourage the formation of a Union party in the South It will not continue to govern one half the ter ritory of the StaU-t in ihe Uuion by force of anna, if it it poeeible to turn th government over to a reliable Union party in the South. He it no true frieud of the country wbo do- claret now, at doel tht Oreoaioa, that no Union man in the South it to be Iruatvd, and that only such Radicals a Sumner, Phillip le Co. are reliable. We hope lo tee a reliable Union party, of ton e description, built up at the South, and we also hope to tee that Uuion element incorporated inio the great Uuion or ganization of tlie North, making one hnriuo- nioua pcliticul organization, Ibe oentral idea of which shall be the maintenance and perpetuity of th " Union ami Liberty one and insep arable" TUE PKEKIDKNT'8 P0L1CT. There are tome Northern radical who teem In he extremely gratified at the election of Southern radicals, and oall it tba reault of PrrtiJent J obnsnn' leniency. The extremist at the North and lb extremist at lh South ar houod tn keep the two tectiout at war, and Ihey will. If their idea are not earrfally head ed off, plunge lha whole country into a mate of amirohy. The men who ar oonlitiually de nouncing the President's polioy are nut aatisfird unlet lh South conform In ihoir peculiar Meat. With tlie abolition of alavery we had hoped that the negro question would have been teltlvd, bat it would appear that the tlif fioulllrt ar multiplying.

That President Jahneone'i reconstruction policy will be ap proved hy Congrree, w have no doubt, and we do not think that CongreM will attempt tn Inrce neero entlrnre upon the Southern Slate without their consent.

Whilo the Oregonian ia ttriving to distrnct and divide tli Union party by making ' negro tnlTrage" a tost question, and Insinnnting and representing that only uch men a Sumner, Phillips and others, who are unequivocally in favor of " negro luflYugc," aro otind and reli able Union men, it it refreshing lo read the olilo argument of such men a Gov. Morton, of Indiana. II made a tpeech recently, which hot been declared " tbo voice of the Wet," and also that it reflect! tho opinion of Presi dent Johnson. Tbo adoption of negro suffrage it not a hit qneation, and the Union men of Oregon will do well to frown dowo all attempt of th Oregonian to niake it tuch. Speaking of Governor Morton't tpeech, the Springfield (Mas.) Republican tayt: "No Western Gov ernor hut made a better reputation for active and efficient putriotUiu, during the war, than Gov. Morton, of Indiana. He ia entitled to respectful hearing on publlo questions for thit reason ; and being a man of the people, and thoroughly, in sympathy with them, he proba lily repreaentt the averago petition of tha Re publican of the West better than almost any other man. ; lie made a speech at Richmond, Indiana, an October Sth, In which he diseased pending political question fully and candidly. He lustnitit the Preidnt't policy of recon ttruction, and givet reason for it." We re produce ennngh of the tpeech to indicate itt general drift: The Governor proceeded to prove that Pret- ident Johnson i faithfully executing Mr. Lin coln' plan of reoonstruotion the Oregonian declare that hit plan it a failure, and also showed that VV inter IJovia reconstruction Dill, which Mr. Lincoln vetoed, provided for the ad mission of the rebel State without negro uf frttgo. " So yea tee that Congress, in it no tion, did not make negro (uffruge a condition in It fiew of reconstruction. We have the ilireot sanction nf Congreet in excluding the negro from the work of reconstruction, and muking no provision for their rights beyond personal liberty." He alto thowed that both Congress and the Executive have proceeded consistently upon the assumption that there ha boen no actual secession ol any Mute, nut only vain attempt to secede, and that this theory cannot he abandoned without producing incx tricnble confusion. In regard tn tho question of admitting the qneation of admitting the freedmen of the South to vote, while I admit the equal right nf all men, and that In lime all men will have the right to vote, without distinction of color or nice, I yet believe that in the case of the four million of tlavet jutt emerging from bondage, there should be a term ol prohntlon exacted nf Ilium before conceding to them the exerciio of political power. Let ut consider for a moment. Whether these four million were wliito nr block, color wnnld mike difference. Consider the condition ol these people in the Southern State, Yon cannot judge of the condition nf the freed men the tegroet upon the nlunla tion hy those in tlie schools at Hilton Head. Norfolk, and other plaoet where enthusiastic teaohe.ii are Instructing them to read and write. 1 have no doulit many ol them make rapid pro gress, and have the capacity to learn anything. Hut il it only one it a thousand nf thoao who live upon plantation that can lie expected to eqnal those who ll'e in tho town, who have been tervantt nf kitelligeut gentlemen. Yon matt consider what it the condition of the whole mast. Not one in a thousand can read; per- liapt not one In nve hundred l worth Ave dol lara in property. They are juat coming nut of bondage. All they have la their bodies. 1 heir little tliantiet are npon the plantation nf their former master mint of them depending for subsistence npon employment received from, or obtained In tome wav lea honorable. Many of them, until i'hin a few month, were never olf the plantation on which they were born ; moat of them certainly not out nf the cntinty, unlet driven hr the tlave tiriver. Can yon conceive of a hndy of men, while nr black, tint tituated, to tutldenly qtahtied to step into the exercise ol nolitionl pover. not nnly tn govern theintelvet but to govern their neighbor ? A more tatoinent of thefaot furninlie the an swer to the qneation. i "Mr. Sumner' proposition i. that all per font who have been coicemed in thit rebellion shall be excluded from th right of tulTrage, from all political pnwei, for an indefinite time, and that llm negrne of the rebel ttatet thall he enfranchised, full ptliticnl power conferred upon them. Let ut coisuler whnl it to he the effect of tha adoption if thit policy. If you exclude from the right if tutTrage every man aha hat been concerned in the rebellion, you will perhapa omit Teniewre and Loo aiana. Yon will exclude twenty out of every twenty one white men. In tome it would lie a greater proportion. Thit woud give you only one while vole out nr every twenty-one person. If you enfranchise all the negror in thote tale, yoo will haveatliast twenty negro vote to mi while vote in the work of reconstruction ; and in the ttatet of South Carolina, Georgia. Alabama and Florida, you will have a large proportion, pcrhnpa thirty colored vntet to nnu while one. I inbuilt, tkeu, however clearly we may admit the righw of th negro and none can do tn more Inlhr than I do whether colored ttate government are desirable, and whether they would not reault in a war of racet. I have no doubt the limt will come, and that it ia Dot far distant, when the rebel ttatet will confer upon the negroet the right of tufTrage. I would give theee men jutt emerging from slavery a period of probation and preparation , I would give them time tn acquire a little prop erly time lo get a little education ; tiino tn learn something about the simplest forma of bueinpM, and ta prepare ihemtelveefor lh ex ercise of political power. At ibe end ef ten nr twt uty year, let them eoitte into tho enjoy ment of political right. a a There it another thing that will contribute In work out thi great result. It it an amend ment to the constitution thai may he adopted much more readily thnn the proposition nf Mr. Sumner. It i ihe proportion to make the ha il of representation depend, not opou popula tion, but voter, be they white or black. The elfrot will be to drive the southern men. by d greet, to enfranchise the negroet, for the pur pose ol Increasing their representation in I on- greet and enlarging tbeir political power.
