The uanobrs to toe Rbpcbi.ic, as we read the signs of the timet, are most imiui tuL The events,, which are now fast crowding upon tlie American people, bode the destruction of constitutional liberty. Yet flitt tratton npfwwa t 4rmtnf mm doling over the pregnant occurrences of the ,lav, M if all were ecure, anil as if the Inundation of (,lir Kepublican institutions were as immovable, as the everlasting hills. Fortv years ago, the country would have been in blaze of patriotic fervor, if a tithe of the danger", which now menace the gov eminent, had developed themselves Kven an late as the recent war, nothing no roused the masses of the North, as the danger of dissolution and ruin which threatened the I'nion. Hut the war, when at Ha hottest, was not a hundredth part as threatening to the preservation of constitutional liberty and republican institutions, as are the events now transpiring. We have been' stinngly impressed with tile belief, frr some time, (bat the leading spirits in the Radical party were Utterly hostile to Republican Government. This hostility is European in its origin, has been fostered and pampered by foreign gold, -mid tor many yar-wa only eihibited ostensibly in opposition to tha Constitution and the government, because of their alleg ed coiinV-nancc 'n'niT siipport -of African slavery. This opposition to the intrinsic republican features ol the Constitution was concealed raMrmd the more orirrt hostility to slavery, but is now , however, out cropping in the bolder attempts to destroy the gov - Judicial departments, aim sunmiiiiiiug iu their stead the w ill of Congress, In be exe cuted bv a MlI.ITAitv Dictatoh1 The stupor of tin- n ition, under such a state ol things, is truty alarming. The cry of "Union" and "loyalty," by the Radicals, has proven to be a lullaby to the nation. -Liberty, abolition ol slavery, universal free, dom.have been the watch cry ol those who are forging tl.e i haius and manacles w ith which to bind lorever American freemen. 1'nivetsal suffrage to the blacks, professed llevi'itTon td" t Tic (Tethbi faTTc pflriCTpli" that suffrage is essentia! to liberty, has been the deceptive agency, by which liberty is to be throttled and destroyed.

"lieedom" and "erpial ily," are but the hypocritical pretenres, which lire luring on our people lo the de struction ol the liepublic. We observe that aithoiigh the evidences of anti Republicanism in the so-calld Reimh licaii party ure so palpable, that "he whrt inns may read," the great body of the Dem ocrats and Consi rvatives, at the North, seem quite eiinleiil lo leave rents wholly to the decision of the next Presidential election.

Already the country lias been brought to the very precipice by the temporising, dallying, too confiding policy of those to whom its destiny lias been committed.

The old crv of that day "Lib erty, Fraternity and Equality with all men. has been revived this State.

But that the negro is not the equal of the Caucasian race generally has been proven a pttpt. ? it i curious to reflect t Lint among tliose who voted for this resolution are some who have been noted for their life long 'hostility to the negro race.

I.. j MlifMHlir KlHlllHH : lull not JUUluUUd to see the studied efforts of the ironlil lie lemlers ol the Itndieal Republicans, in the Convention, to avoid the effect of the action of tlmt body, on Saturday last, on Mr. Dur ham's resolutions. They say, and lmpet (be people arc dupes enougli to believe them," tbat the object ol the resolutions was lo distract the Convention, at all events, the "loyal" part ol it, and prvvopt harmony in the Republican ranks. Whb cannot see through this ridiculous mihteruije f The JCMOlUtkUaVIo mind, embodj a yraud princiflt updetlying the whole action ot the Convention ; and thai is. whether the Con vention will provide for negro equality und domination or not. If the Convention in tund to establish negro equality aud place the negroes of the State in a position to rufe, then the disposition of the rrsnlutiuu is all right. The indefinite jHittjionemtnl ol the resolutions amount U n'u more nor leas than an alfiimance of the purpose of the Convention to entahlih negro npiality and the )eople ought 'tii know7 it, and they ought M know wlio voted fur such dread ful policy and who did not. I trust that Mr. Durham and the handful of Oust it u tioBaTCnion men in the'Convention cah'l be frightened to death by' the blustering and threats ot men without principles or power to injure I hem. If the Cnav.uitinn wants to assume the responsibility of aup prcissins; Iree -speech aoxl. a.fr&e press., let vbem do so like men and not go sneaking about it. WATCH AND WAIT. Radical Rihteousnks. The city of Richmond elected Judge Underwood, Mr. Hunnicutt, two negroes, and another Radi cal, (white,) by some four or Hi hundred majority. The white population charged both a fraudulent vote and registration, and in one of the wards Oen. Schofleld lias bad a census taken of the persona authorized to vote under the reconstruction laws. Now, what is the result of this military census in Monroe Ward I Simply this, that some i hundred negro names are ascertain ad to nave been fraudulently pltced on the registration lists there is nobody found to, respond to these names. These names were Toted, however, at the election. Negroes wrf bronght b from Hie cemnty whoaMwer ed to rbe names, and the election was kept open three days, up to midnight of the third day, in order to euable t.ha fraud to be consummated. As there are five wards in Kicttrnond, it probable that the V! number of negroes fraudulently registered in tba?ity U fully two thouaand, aad in the entire Stale not baa than twenty or thirty thousand. By this means "right ehuaness," we think, they call it- and by disfranchising fully a thiid of tie whites, the South has been carried. Nat. Intel.
